Early December testing?

[Laur89]

@Gigi318 @Ellsbells112 @Gems7 new post girls! How are you all? I can't remember who else to tag!

Hey girls! @Anny27 I ovulated on Tuesday/Wednesday I think, I'm due af around 23rd so fingers crossed! When's your af due? Argh it's hard not to symptom spot isn't it! I'm not feeling anything yet really 😂 sorry af has arrived for you @Ellsbells112 and @Gems7! That must be hard @Robbo93 being in limbo and not knowing what's happening, when are you seeking the consultants?

@Robbo93 I meant seeing 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️

@Robbo93 sorry to hear that honestly being in limbo must be shite!

@Laur89 haha the Symptom spotting is bloody awful!!

Hopefully we see some bfps this month!!

I've got pink mucus... I think she's coming! 🤞🤞
(Never been pleased to see it before lol)

@Robbo93 lol Aww great girl!! You can get on with the next cycle! Xx

How are you feeling today @Robbo93?

I'm okay thanks @Laur89 how are you?
I've gone back to clear EWCM style, hoping it's still the start of AF - I think you're all as invested in this situation as me 🤣 xx

@Robbo93 argh that's annoying! I bet you are just wishing it would start so you can move on! Yeah I'm ok, felt a bit nauseous yesterday but surely that's too early to be anything?!! I felt really down all day yesterday for no real reason, even my OH thought I didn't seem myself, I just felt on the edge of crying 🤦🏻‍♀️ it didn't help seeing loads of pregnant ladies when I was at softplay with my DS! 😂

@Laur89 could be implantation having an affect on you 🤞 😆 xx

@Laur89 I've been like it too except it was pms for me lol

I'm day 2 of period and feel so sick literally keep thinking I'm going to puke. This is some sick joke let me. Tell you lol I'm dealing with nausea and no baby just blood what kind of bad joke is this 😂😅

@ellsbells112 sometimes I throw up when I am on my period! Doesnt happen so much now I am an adult but when I was a teen I used to often throw up on period. So weird!

@Laur89 ahhh hopefully the moodiness is a little baby growing haha! My AF is due 26tb

@robbo93 ahhh your body is tricking you all over the place haha

2dpo for me,no symptoms yet obvs!

@anny27 I had a friend as a teenager who it happened to dunno why I'm getting it now! Hope it's a one off tbh it's awful!
Do you feel like you covered all bases? I've started primrose oil this month to help with ewcm lol

@Ellsbells112 our bodies are evil at times aren't they 😂 Last Monday I had the sorest boobs I have ever had in my life, one week before AF was due, I thought "yes here we go it's finally my time 🙏🏻".... But NO!! 😂 just my body playing games with me! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Girls I am using OPK's this cycle for the first time ever. What time of the day is best to use them do you find? Should I do it twice per day or just once?

Xx

@Gems7 are you using the cheap ones? If yes then do it twice, once in morning and once in evening
If using the clear blue you only need to once a day then when you get a flashing smiley you should do it twice a day until you get a solid.
Just a word of warning, I was using the clear blues and thinking I needed to dtd when I saw solid smiley, but this month I was tracking bbt and realised when I got my solid is actually after I had already bloody ovulated.
So I would really really recommend bbt it's the most accurate along with clear blue opks (reason being you only know you've ovulated once your bbt spikes by then it's too late) so you take the opks as well to know when to just start getting sex crazy lol but I'd really suggest clear blues not the cheap ones xx

@Ellsbells112 thanks hun, yes I've ordered the clear blue digital ones from Amazon, they will be here tomorrow. I don't think I'll be able to do bbt because I work in a hospital and have all crazy shift patterns. I just know I would miss doing it all the time.
It really showed you a solid smiley once you have already ovulated? I thought that was supposed to show your LH surge in the lead up to ovulation? Does it flash then in the few days leading up to ovulation and then show a solid smiley on the day of ovulation?
Ahhh mannnn I thought it was going to be easier to predict this way... 😩 haha it's never simple
It it 😂 xxx

@Gems7 I know its so annoying!! Well everyone is different so you could get your LH surge and ovulate a day later or 2 days later which is common. Apparently my body just shoots the LH surge way too close to ovulation🤷‍♀️ maybe it happened the night before but that morning my bbt had already spiked. I'd just say watch how you go with them this first month but when you see flashing smileys you BD as much as you can to cover all bases. First time I used them. I didn't even. Get a flashing it went straight from blank to solid lol so trial and error I suppose. It all helps though xxx

@Ellsbells112 Thanks angel, that's helped a lot! Xx

@ellsbells112 we definitley covered all bases haha - DTD 5 out of the 6 days in the fertile window so couldn't have done anymore in that sense! 😅

@Gems7 sometimes my LH surger is super quick and sometimes it lasts a day or two! Everyone is so different. I just use the cheaply amazon one step OPKs

@Laur89 any more symptoms?

I love how loads of people joined the thread and then in the end it's just the originals left haha

@Anny27 I'm going to order some cheap ones from amazon this afternoon and use those aswell. Hopefully they are all self explanatory. How many DPO do you get your LH surge then? I've never used OPK's before only an app, so I could be way out with ovulation for all I know.
Fingers crossed to you this month, you've given yourself the best chance you can anyway haven't you 🤞🏻
And yeah it is all the originals left isn't it 😊 it's nice that we are all still in it together, hopefully we will get some BFP's soon!! Xx

I'm an original 😩😩
Still no AF for me. That's 3 days this cycle where I've had a random spot/pink mucus. CD55 - hosp tomorrow.
I did have a nose bleed this morning which is rare for me 🤷‍♀️ xx

Oh I didnt tag you @Robbo93! Yep all us originals still here apart from @Gigi318 who has gone missing haha! Hope she has her bfp and is on the pregnancy boards instead 🤞🤞

@robbo93 no false hope.....but a nose bleed was one of my first pregnancy signs haha! I never had one before and then had them all the time in pregnancy

@Gems7 so you get your LH surge before ovulation. Mine is usually cd15if and then I ovulate cd16ish

@Anny27 omg don't excite me like that 🤣 you're making me want to test again!

Hey girls how are you all? @Robbo93 anything? I tested yesterday at 8dpo but bfn obvs lol! I've been feeling nauseous the past couple of days and had a weird metallic taste in my mouth?! Probably nothing lol not feeling hopeful lol x

@Laur89 sounds hopeful! Are you gonna test early?

5dpo for me!

I keep wanting to @Anny27 but I'm gonna try and hold out until af is due, no point doing it before hand! I've just started a new part time job so got things to distract me with 🤣 will you test early or wait til af is due?
