End of November, jump on board pt 2!

[Skygirl1983]

Ladies from the other thread, we have reached 1000! We need to start a new one!

@Louu99 Yes definitely they will. Do u know your Hcg levels of your last test? And what is the sensitivity level of your FrEr? We can find out if the levels have increased with this i think

@PrettyGirl5545 I know I've impressed myself 😂😂 I think because I've had AF cramps on and off all weekend that's convinced me not to bother. I might try with FMU in the morning then if AF hasnt arrived by then 🤞

@Louu99 fingers crossed you get some answers!!

Evening ladies. I'm feeling good. Wind has eased and no other symptoms. I thought I'd try out an opk to test out this theory of using it as an indicator and got a decent line on it!!! Does LH rise again after ovulation and before your period??

@Skygirl1983 omg I seen that and thought you got a positive test! What dpo are you now? Would be interesting for you to do a test to see if anything comes up!

I'm 7dpo today and I've had cramps on and off all day and back ache, are you getting this? I feel like AF is on her way already 😫 but my lutual is normally 12-14 days, surely not!

Sorry @Maisy24 I was just intrigued as I'd read about it so thought I'd give it a go. I'll find the link to the article. I think a hot would still be negative.

I'm around 6/7dpo and feel crampy. My AF boobs haven't started yet but I'm expecting them soon.

Look at the pics of the opk and hpt the further on in the cycle.

I hope people don't mind me joining in so late! I've read most of the thread, I hope it's good news for those who are waiting to test/waiting for blood results.

I am TTC 1st baby, it's been a long time couldn't tell you what cycle! I was due on Saturday (26 day cycles) however am late. I wasn't sure I ovulated this month as had no obvious symptoms/discharge, I stopped using OPK's but have started tracking BBT but again couldn't see an obvious drop/rise? However have had cramping/niggly pinching but not like period pains all week. Barely DTD as I partner been away. I am scared to test as have seen far too many BFN but I'm thinking of doing a FRER tomorrow. x

What does it mean @Skygirl1983?? Never k we that trick!

I still have achy boobs so not exercise related at this stage, its not a usually AF symptom either... but I've the cramps/heaviness that makes me think AF is definitely on her way 😒

Welcome @Bunny2006 it's a bit of a whirlwind in this thread! If you like to obsess about symptoms you'll fit right in! Lol!

@CiaraJ01 it can mean many things really, some people get an LH surge before AF but I'm still at least a week away from that, it can also detect pregnancy early on apparently, and it can also mean not a lot!! But my opk had no line at all right after I supposedly ovulated and that's one of the boldest lines I have had!!

I'll continue them for thr next few days and start hpt from friday too. See what happens.

Thank you @Skygirl1983! Oh definitely haha! I've been really bloated too which I don't normally get before AF. Good luck for when you start testing!

Evening girls! How is everyone? AF is now finishing up nicely hopefully be all done tomorrow😍

@Skygirl1983 I did a LH stick before I left for Barcelona (Saturday) and it looked the same as yours. I watched YouTube videos on it but didn't really think much into it and binned it. I've been going down the 'feeling the cervix' route and it's been controlling my need to pee on pregnancy tests. At the moment it points to no pregnancy. Will see how week progresses.

@CiaraJ01 I've just seen your photo of your dog, is it a Rottweiler? My favourite breed 😍 xxx

@mellymoo86 your Barcelona photo looks amazing! Hope you are having a good time! I'm also 7dpo, what do you mean by your cervix pointing to no pregnancy, if I check, what am I looking for? Xxxx

@Maisy24 he is!! He was trying to help me wrap xmas present ts - unsuccessfully!!! But hes such a softie 😍

@Skygirl1983 the plot thickens! So it could mean your pregnancy- or that AF is about to arrive?!

@mellymoo86 hows Barcelona?? @nt1992 not long left for you now! xx

How annoying is it that nearly all pregnancy symptoms are also symptoms af is on her way 😑 why couldn't it be simple and give us a clear sign straight after dtd if it had happened or not so we can just instantly forget it and move on 🤣 a bit like the sims 🤣🙈

Hello! DTD this evening, due ov in 2 days... Just waiting now...maybe have a few more goes in the mean time. TTC#1

@Maisy24 thanks lovely. Having a lovely time and eating like a pig. Need to get back on a diet when I'm back in the UK. 😁

So from what I've read when the cervix feels harder (like the tip of your nose) then you're most likely not. If you are pregnant your cervix should be wet, high and soft. I'm 7dpo and my cervix has gone from being low/hard/dry to higher/lots of cm but still harder. So I'm thinking AF is on the way (although theres still 5/6 days), so let's see. And yeah it's super annoying as the exact same symptoms are caused by AF to. It's literally a waiting game.

@Maisy24 that would be fab, just plays a little tune afterwards if you managed to get preg😂 I felt like I had a few symptoms before AF appeared but clearly it was in my head 🤔 scary how your mind can play tricks!

Hello! Could I join in?? (I’m very new here!) I’m on my 2nd cycle of TTC baby #1 and will be testing around the 30th...I’ve spent all evening reading a few TTC threads, I had no idea it’s all so technical!

@Maisy24 exactly!! I wonder the same. Why is this so complicated?? Why isn't it simple!
@nt1992 I'm on CD10, expecting ovulation to happen in 2 days. I still haven't started proper dtd

Good morning! @MrsP0109 and @FeckaDecka
So no AF as yet. Took a cheapie test first thing... BFN. 😒 14 dpo so it's unlikely but I'll order some FRER today incase AF doesnt arrive by tomorrow.
I'm still unconvinced the OPK tests were right so I mightnt have ovulated when I thought 😣

@nt1992 haha yeah a little tune plays like the sims. Instead we have to wait and constantly analyse every small thing!

@Skygirl1983 how you feeling? I'm 8dpo today and feel nothing!

@mellymoo86 you carry on eating and enjoying yourself, it's technically Xmas time now so diets are off until January 🤣 are you also 8dpo today? When do you get back?

@CiaraJ01 he is gorgeous, I think my dog has helped me through all this! 😊

When is everyone testing? Xxxxx

@CiaraJ01 think we sent messages the same time, why do you think the opks might be wrong? Could very well be if AF hasn't arrived yet, do you feel like she's coming or no cramps yet? Xxxxx
