My opk is nearly peak as well @msunflower so probably ovulate on 2 days (cd15)!

Yep will be thankful for cooler weather for the next dtd 😅

Annny27 · 01/08/2020 13:19

Got my peak OPK this morninf at cd14 :)

Have you started with the syringes yet @Missgoldilocks

@gems7 any close to ovulation too? 🤞🤞

Missgoldilocks · 01/08/2020 14:05

@anny27 lovely to hear you got your peak today :) nope I haven't I have a while yet before starting I'm cd7 will start on cd12 xc

Gems7 · 01/08/2020 14:08

Hey huns, sorry I've been absent for a few days, been so bloody busy!!
CD 12 for me, got my flashing smiley last night so just waiting for it to be a solid one 😊
Doing SMEP this month and thankfully was my day off yesterday so didn't have to DTD in that bloody heat 🥵 we have DTD this morning in much cooler climates 🤣
@Annny27 glad you got the progesterone, it it could be the answer for you! I was convinced I had a progesterone issue and the agnus Castus was the reason for my BFP, I daren't take anything other than pregnacare now though Incase it was also the reason for my MC.. it probably had nothing to do with it but we are our own worst enemy aren't we, spent so much time thinking "what if it's because I took the agnus castus" "what if it's because I went for that long walk" "what if it's because I went to sleep on my left side one night and not my right" 🙄 crazy aren't we!! Xx

msunflower · 01/08/2020 15:57

@Anny27 @Gems7 CD13 for me and got my peak today, it sounds like we all peaked about the same time this month! 🤞🏻 for us all and here's hoping we all get a BFP this month! TWW for us all now/soon, hoping it goes by quickly!

Gems7 · 01/08/2020 17:01

@msunflower The first week usually does but the second week is a draaaaaaaag! Xx

Gems7 · 02/08/2020 08:52

Girls please can you help me out..
Today = CD13
I've had a couple of days of flashing smileys so far, testing twice a day for the last few days..
This morning.. opened a new box of clearblue's, used the new monitor and got a blank circle..
I was like what the fuck is happening!!?!? 😩 flashing to negative.. No peak!

Panicking, went back to the bathroom, managed only a dribble this time in the pot because I'd literally only just been.. used the old monitor and got a solid smiley face..
would you say I've just got my peak then? Off the dribble.. or would you trust the blank circle off the new monitor? 🤯 xx

Gems7 · 02/08/2020 08:53

I test with cheap ones off amazon too but they haven't given me a peak yet.. 👀
Don't know how reliable they are though? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Annny27 · 02/08/2020 09:06

@gems7 ahhh thats so confusing! I dont really know how the clearbkue ones work but I so know that it calibrates to your levels so maybe the new monitor doesn't understand your LH spectrum yet???

I would trust the old one tbh!

I have ovulated now. Didnt dtd on ovulation day as was way too tired but dtd the day before and today (day after)....think we still have a chance? 🤞🤞

@msunflower gave you ovulated yet?

@Missgoldilocks after our half arsed dtd this morning, if we haven't conceived this month I am giving the syring emethod a go. What pack did you get from amazon?

Gems7 · 02/08/2020 09:09

@Annny27 yeah that's what I am leaning towards aswell... why can't it just be straightforward eh!!
We DTD yesterday anyway and will (try to) DTD for the next 3 days aswell, I'll test with another cheapie when I get home and see if I get a peak on that!

Of course you have a chance, the doctor told me every other day throughout your cycle was more than enough so don't worry xx

msunflower · 02/08/2020 10:03

@Annny27 my peak ovulation was yesterday, doing the SMEP so it's BBD today and tomorrow again... Thank goodness it's not as hot now! 🥵

Gems7 · 02/08/2020 16:49

Tested again this afternoon on the clearblue stick that gave me a blank circle this morning and now that one has a solid smiley too.. that's two solid smileys today so I think I've Defo got my peak today with ovulation likely tonight or tomorrow.
More sex in store for me tonight then.. 😭😭

Good luck everyone, let's hope August is our lucky month!! Xxx

Missgoldilocks · 02/08/2020 21:25

@Gems7 good luck xxx

@anny27 it was the pack of 100 1ml syringes around 10 pounds hahaha let's hope I'll only need under 5 out of the pack lol

I'm in fertile week like mid this week coming so let's see what happens

Annny27 · 03/08/2020 11:31

Morning girls, I thought I has ovulated but then i got another nearly peak opk today so maybe the first peak didn't actually ovulate......so more DTD 😭🤣

@Gems7 yayyy for your peak! Now the worst part of SMEP over the next few days!

@missgoldilocks at first my husband thought that the self insemination would be weird but now he is open to it too :D so do you do it in a cup and then put it in straight away or leave it for a bit?

Gems7 · 03/08/2020 19:17

@Annny27 tell me about it! 🤦🏻‍♀️ we've done it twice a day for the last couple of days! Sick of it.
Ovulation day today so tomorrow to get out of the way then my poor vagina can have a rest! 🤣🤣🤣
If I'm not preggers this month I'm going to ball my eyes out, all this unwanted sex for nothing 😄

Missgoldilocks · 03/08/2020 21:27

@Gems7 @Anny27 😂 I'm dreading being at that part. I was super frisky for ages and oh wasnt giving me none I was furious, but then on Saturday we had amaaaaazing sex omg you know when you think about it days later and still grin haha god I love that 😍 felt honeymoon phase again... Now if only we could have that when I'm fertile!!

Anny, I guess he could produce in anything you want, so basically you can do it the cup way and stick it up there all night probably the best way if you can get it in without spilling... I'm going to get him to produce it in a pot lol then suck it up with the syringe and stick it in me and keep the syringe in for 20 mins (this is what I read other ladies do) let's hope it works lol

Annny27 · 04/08/2020 15:41

bloody hell twice a day @gems7 !!!! You are a Saint haha! We only dtd every other day this month as really couldnt be arsed 🙈🙈

@Missgoldilocks ahh its always nice to have some good sex in amongst this ttc nightmare! 😍

Have ovulated now and about 1/2dpo so gonna start raking my progesterone tomorrow

Gems7 · 04/08/2020 19:33

@Annny27 tell me about it! 🤦🏻‍♀️ 6 times in 3 days!
Although I thought I'd got my peak on Sunday also got 2 solid smileys on Sunday.. but then today had another peak.. what the chuff does that mean?
I'll upload pics.. xx

Gems7 · 04/08/2020 19:35

Do you think i haven't ovulated yet? X

Annny27 · 04/08/2020 19:51

Mine did that too this month!!!! I think todays is your peak that I would go from but you just never know @gems7

I went from when my CM felt like it was ovulating

Gems7 · 04/08/2020 20:22

@Annny27 strange isn't it... don't think it's ever done that before, thought I was done with DTD 😭 might have to try to do it again when I get home from work tomorrow just in case, I think even OH is sick of it this cycle!
Even with OPK's it's still bloody confusing 🤯 ffs
My CM is unpredictable.
Today's opk is definitely darker though isn't it 😐
What a pain in the ass!!
Xx

Missgoldilocks · 04/08/2020 22:53

@Gems7 what do you mean your cm is unpredictable? Do you normally get ewcm and you haven't yet or..?

Gems7 · 04/08/2020 23:25

@Missgoldilocks sometimes I notice it, sometimes I don't, I've only ever had a lot of it just after my MC, and when I do notice it, some cycles it's there for days on end sometimes only a day, it's different every month xx

Missgoldilocks · 05/08/2020 09:22

@Gems7 have you had it over the past few days? That's the same as mine, though I check up by my cervix day and night to see if there's some up there lol xx
