I'm sorry I don't know much about those cb sticks though what @GreyWolf says sounds definitely plausible so hopefully your flashing smileys will resume. Feeling half optimistic/half not. Won't be surprised if it doesn't happen this month as haven't DTD on all the days I wanted to. I know from the previous months now that twinges/heartburn/aches mean nothing so going to try to not get my hopes up.

Bumpingalong84 · 10/03/2019 20:39

@becca3210 and @GreyWolf good luck and fingers crossed for bfp’s.

@hopeful that’s so confusing if it re-sets it’s self but hopefully you’ll be back to flashing smiley’s tomorrow morning.

I’m on my 2nd day of flashing smileys and think I’m due to ovulate Tuesday or Wednesday! CD14today. Can’t wait to see a solid! It feels reassuring somehow using clear blue and having a better idea than the two lines.

hopeful31 · 11/03/2019 06:14

Thanks ladies . I think that @GreyWolf was right. I tested again this morning and got a flashing smiley again so I'm back on track. Dtd twice yesterday just incase though haha.
@Bumpingalong84 I agree. Clear blue are more expensive but I think they are worth it!

Hoping for bfps all round!! 😘

@hopeful31 wahey glad it went back to flashing, we’ve dtd the last two nights. Had another flashing smiley this morning, so as I expected I’m ovulating a little later than I thought.

I feel like I’m going to be so excited when I see a static ha, as good as bfp ALMOST!! 😂 I definitely can’t see me going back to other ovulation sticks now! But hoping I won’t have to!!

GreyWolf · 11/03/2019 07:59

Phew, that's a relief @hopeful31

I've felt a lot better using CB too @Bumpingalong84 - something about that little face is very reassuring 😂

Makemeamumma · 11/03/2019 11:56

Ok so I couldn’t resist any longer and today I’m 9dpo. I’ve done a test and it’s very faint... I mean is this a positive or?! I’m freaking out

Starting tww
hopeful31 · 11/03/2019 12:10

@Makemeamumma that's deff a positive!!!! Congratulations!!!! 😘😘

Thank you : I’m in total shock!! I really wasn’t expecting this. Lots of people have been mentioning a chemical pregnancy on the internet? @hopeful31*

GreyWolf · 11/03/2019 13:19

Congrats @Makemeamumma - lovely line there!

becca3210 · 11/03/2019 16:20

@Makemeamumma that’s a great positive line congratulations!

Bumpingalong84 · 11/03/2019 18:41

@Makemeamumma huge congratulations Flowers

MrsP4 · 11/03/2019 22:43

Hi ladies how is everyone? Sorry I've been really quiet just had a busy couple of weeks, where is everyone currently at in there cycles?

I'm currently on CD14 had a faint OPK today so think I will ovulate tomorrow or weds.

Bumpingalong84 · 12/03/2019 10:01

Cd14 here and Day 4 of flashing smiley, one came up with an error so had to waste a stick 😩 need to pick a new pack up today, so annoying you can’t just buy the sticks! £50 on ovulation sticks this month 🙈

How’s the symptom spotting going ladies?

MrsP4 · 12/03/2019 14:53

@Bumpingalong84 How do you find the clear blue OPKS? I tried them one month and had 9 days of flashing smiley I felt like stamping on it each time I've not used them since because they annoyed me so much! Maybe I should give them another try.

Bumpingalong84 · 12/03/2019 15:37

@MrsP4 well this is my first month and if I don’t get a static I definitely won’t be using them again. I’m on day 4 of flashing and tested again this afternoon and still flashing, so we’ll see what happens tomorrow! It’s so hard especially now I’ve invested £50 this month so just know 🙈

GreyWolf · 12/03/2019 17:27

I'm 3dpo now, was feeling pretty pleased with myself for not symptom spotting yet, because it's clearly far too soon - but now I'm really feeling the urge to POAS, which I know is ridiculous!

Just googled how soon implantation can occur after ovulation, looking for any excuse 😂

@MrsP4 this was my first month of using CB sticks, I got 7 flashing smileys before the static. I think I read somewhere that the holder learns, so you'd get fewer flashing smileys the next cycle. Could be wrong though!

How you get your static smiley soon @Bumpingalong84 Smile

hopeful31 · 12/03/2019 18:49

@MrsP4 I like them. The first month or 2 u do get a lot of flashing smileys . I heard the same as @GreyWolf . It gets used to ur cycle.
I'm still on the flashing smiley. And I'm due to ovulate between tomorrow and Friday so I should be getting that static smiley any day.

It's strange because I'm having some early pregnancy symptoms even tho it's impossible.

becca3210 · 12/03/2019 19:53

Hi all. 4dpo today usual few twinges/aches but nothing out of the ordinary. Good luck to those waiting to ovulate and those waiting to poas! @Greywolf when do you think you will test?

GreyWolf · 12/03/2019 20:02

@becca3210 Ideally I wouldn't test until next Monday at the earliest, so 9dpo. In reality I reckon I'll crack on Friday or Saturday - good job I've got some ICs as well as my two leftover FRERs!

How about you?

becca3210 · 12/03/2019 21:10

@Greywolf will wait till at least 9dpo. If I can wait longer I will but think will be getting tempted by then especially if get symptoms!

MrsP4 · 12/03/2019 23:18

Thanks girls might think about giving them another try next cycle if this one isn't our lucky month! Fingers crossed for lots of BFPs and lots of December babies!

Bumpingalong84 · 13/03/2019 07:40

😩😩 day 5 of flashing, come on ovaries do your business!! I completely didn’t anticipate this new anxiety with different opks!! Just feel like I’ll have that flashing smiley forever 😳

becca3210 · 13/03/2019 14:30

Aw hope it happens soon @Bumpingalong84! Day 5 over here want the wkend to hurry up as absolutely nothing interesting to report so far!!

Bumpingalong84 · 13/03/2019 18:10

@becca3210 not long now! Fingers crossed for your bfp this month. Can’t wait to be in the tww, I’m still hanging around waiting to ovulate 😂

hopeful31 · 13/03/2019 19:32

I got another flashing smiley today too. Should ovulate in the next day or 2
