Anybody 3DPO..?

[Lolastanley]

Anybody 3DPO that wants to ride the TWW together?

Ahh such lovely news... so pleased for you!

Might try some additional vits myself next month. I have the opposite problem to last month, negative opks but lots of ewcm for 3 days now so no idea when I will ovulate. Hopefully will show on my temps at least. Going to try to dtd as much as possible as long as we can in the hope we catch something!
How's everyone else getting on?

I’m 1dpo now so in the TWW. Fingers crossed for good news to start the year!

Fem says I'm now 1dpo too so joining you @quiffy! Hope it goes quickly and with a lovely result for you xx

You too @sammyclaie22! A bfp would be a lovely start to the year

Fingers crossed for you @Quiffy and @sammyclaire22 I’m just out of my AF so fingers crossed I get a positive OPK!

I would like to join your chat please!

How long after DTD would you suggest doing a test if you haven’t had a period/don’t know the expected date. I’ve come straight off my pill in recent weeks, guessing when I was fertile from EWCM and could feel ovulation. I’ve never had EWCM before so was thinking I didn’t know what it was/would never have it but it was so obvious!

Think I would be very lucky to get pregnant that quickly but I have heard of it!

Hi! @LexiM I’d say at least 14 days after DTD.

Hi everyone, sorry been AWOL for a couple of months now, just taking a bit of time out. I'm 10dpo and just taken a test... Sure I see a line but it's not showing up on pics very well. Have got more tests so will do one first thing but my boobs have been killing me for a good few days now so caved and bought an early test 🙈 this line (if anyone can see it) came up in less than 30 seconds so 🤞 for my bfp.

How's everyone else getting on?

Welcome back @whambam89! And i see a second faint pink line! Tentative congratulations for you xxx The boobs are a good sign too :)

All good my end- managed to dtd quite a bit in my fertile window (with decent deposits haha!) but not sure when I've ovulated- my bbt dropped this morning so pounced on the hubby tonight just incase I actually ovulate tomorrow not yesterday like I expected! Fc for a happy outcome... although my mum is getting married end of October so could be interesting if we do!

@sammyclaire22 fingers crossed for you!

No second line this morning so feeling very deflated now 🤦 I know it's still early so will wait until day AF is due now and test again

I'm so sorry @whambam89, there seem to be so many coloured faint lines atm. Really hope it's just that you are very early (Which is very possible as it was faint!) And you get an unequivocal bfp in a few days xx

@sammyclaire22 I'm a bit crampy today as well so guessing it's AF on her way.

Will have to crank the trying up a notch. Haven't been using opks or anything just kind of winging it so may purchase some this month and possibly some vitamins!

I’m sorry to hear that @whambam89. Fingers crossed that it’s just early.

How you getting on @lilice?

@whambam89 sorry to hear that, hope you're okay and that maybe it's just too soon.

@LolaStanley1

So far so good. Im very tired and boobs are so sore. Im going to book a private scan along with the harmony test for when im ten weeks. I'll be able to relax and start telling people when I know everything is okay .

Aw, but wonderful that you are feeling all these things I bet? What’s the harmony test?

Its a screening test, a blood test to check for trisomies. How are you getting on @Lolastanley any luck with the opks this month?

Ah right, I understand now.

Yeah it’s ok, I’ve been using OPKs clearblue and cheapies, and temping. Had my first flashy smile face again yesterday on CD 9 but the cheapies are getting more invisible. So I have no idea where I stand. I’ve also notice my CM is pinky Creamy slightly stretchy not EWCM, does anybody else have that? Wondering if that’s a clue it might be coming?

@lolastanley1 I had a load of high opks then a very low one before a blazing positive the next day- any change in your smiling faces?
6 or 7dpo and i have brown spotting and think my nipples have changed. Clearly a month of mega symptom spotting! Little one has chicken pox so we are house bound and think my brain is going into overdrive!

@sammyclaire that sounds really promising!

I’m having a weird month where I’m not sure I ovulated. My bbt didn’t really rise after I got peak opks, just slightly above cover and then went down again. Yesterday I had a big temp rise and again today, so I don’t know if delayed ovulation. Not dtd all week so hopefully not 🤔

Huh that’s weird @quiffy. Which is more accurate temping or OPK?

@Sammyclaire22 to be honest I feel deflated. Tested from 1 DP AF. And temped. No peak OPKs yet, had EWCM last night so was certain today would be a clear static smiley, but no and now I’ve ran out of those tests. No peak cheapies either. Just read that you have to leave urine samples to reach room temperature which i never knew? Does anybody else do this?

Temp had a drop yesterday and a rise today, but not sure if my shift patterns are messing up my temping.

@Lolastanley I've never left it to room temp ever. That's strange to know! Opks will tell you the body is gearing up, but your temp drop and rise confirms ovulation. Femo app is telling me my bbt rise was too slow for ovulation on 17th (where I got peak opk before) so its suggesting luteal phase deficiency hmmm. Usually I see a clear temp rise so defo an off month

@quiffy yeah after I googled it not many people do leave it so that’s made me feel better.
I forget to use Femo I use Premom mostly, just imputed my temps into femo and it’s calculated ovulation, does this look right?

It's possible to get delayed temp rises @quiffy I do every month! Takes about 3 days sometimes for mine to reach high 36s.
It's a tough one for you @lolastanley1 but I think shifts will affect your bbt accuracy. I know my temps middle of the night can be 0.2 dif to taking it at my regular time. But fem told me bbt was more accurate than opks (mine don't always align!) Plus opks can be influenced by time of day plus hydration levels.
I've never left mine to room temp on purpose.. never heard that one! I'd say your chart looks right for ovulation though :) mine looks clearer once I've got a few days beyond ov

Ah yeah it’s much clearer @sammyclaire22 with the continuous temp rises, would you say you ovulate post dip then? I know not everybody has a dip but is the first rise ovulation occurring or occurred, and when would be best to DTD, pre rise or post rise?
