@Itsemily Hey nice to see you back, I’m now currently officially in my two week wait due my period around 11th of November!

I actually gave up on my digital because I kept getting flashing :-) is and I read that you should test from cycle day seven I think I tested from cycle day eight and also once you’ve got your surge you can miss it just by testing in the morning and it was getting really expensive having to keep using those sticks, I went on Amazon and I bought the easy at home ovulation test sticks and they have been amazing really good unlike the cheapie onesteps that I was using before. I had some really funny cramps last night and really sore boobs so could still be ovulating or something?

I feel like this cycle like my last one has been a little bit messed up so I’m not expecting much but I must admit I am feeling really crampy so I’m hoping that’s a positive!!

How are you? X

Also you will get a blank circle for one or two days while it gets your baseline and then you will get your flashing :-) for God knows how many days apparently it can be 2 to 8 days xx

I had a weird cycle last month too after a coil removal. A weird, intermittent, light, short period and then ages before ovulation. As you can see in the CB app screenshots.

This cycle started with what was unmistakably a real period. I started testing on CD8 (as promoted by the app) and didn't get any flashing smileys at all (after 5 in the previous cycle). I got a solid one on CD11. If my luteal phase is the same length as the first cycle, this will be a 28 day cycle (unlike the 34 days of the previous one).

I've had to explain to DP again how cycles work and what the sticks are testing for. He seemed to be worried that it was too early this month or something. Honestly, he's really smart and capable but seems to have decided that gender reproductive biology is too difficult to remember.

I'm hoping that my body has now figured out where it is after the mirena. And also hoping that there won't be any more cycles, obviously (aren't we all?).

@Sunflower2019 I was weirdly crampy yesterday too. I've no idea why. I'm hoping it's not the sign of imminent D&V. The disease vectors children have had a bug this week, so I don't want that.

@Sunflower2019 thank you. I used the CB last month and it did match with my symptoms, CM etc but vowed I wouldn't use it this month. So I am not going to bother now. I am going to just carry on DTD every other day until AF is due lol , much easier that way

@WooMaWang that’s weird I messaged you back and it’s not come up!! Signal was bad at work..
your partner seems really intuitive mines not 😂
Wonder what this cramping is?? I’ve had indigestion and sore boobs all day.. which is odd for me, surely I wouldn’t be having symptoms already xxx

@Itsemily I agree, definitely not worth is getting to obsessed as opks and necessarily accurate, going with the flow is better xx
