@elly88 thanks, I hope so, I definitely feel different but trying not to symptom spot, not looking forward to the next 2ww but would be amazing if it leads to a BFP 🤞. How long have you been TTC?

Elly88 · 17/01/2020 19:50

@gupster I was lucky enough to fall second time with both this pregnancy and with ds. Was on copper coil before ds and the pill before this one. Fingers crossed it all goes well. And hope it leads to a bfp for you too! I still don't believe it 🤣

Gupster · 17/01/2020 19:55

@elly88 I had the Morena coil removed on Nye and been trying since, 🤞 it happens quickly x

Gupster · 17/01/2020 19:57

That's mirena coil 😂

@Elly88 oh my gosh that is SO positive! Congratulations so happy for you! In reply to you lovely, I don't know where I am in my cycle no, but I'm going to see my bleeding as CD1 even if it was very early loss which would mean I'm now CD11. I think I've had ewcm today but I'm always a bit unsure of what exactly that is like if anyone wants to give TMI and inform me of their experiences! I've taken two opks today both second lines on them but not as dark or darker so not positive yet.. do they get gradually darker if they're like that or can it be clear one day and stark positive the next? X

Ellabella234 · 19/01/2020 12:21

Hi how is everyone??
TMI question probably but I'll ask anyway - how do you all check your cm? Is it just when you wipe after a wee and you have ewcm so feel a bit wet down there compared to normal and that's the cm that appears on the tissue or do you check with your fingers? SORRY 😂

Liam2018 · 19/01/2020 17:08

Could this be my v first opk test?

Elly88 · 19/01/2020 17:30

@Ellabella234 I have a good feel up there lol! Because the feel and position of your cervix can give you some indication too, supposedly it lowers, opens a little and becomes softer when you're ovulating

Liam2018 · 19/01/2020 18:52

Could this be my v first positive opk?

14DPO and my temp this morning has dropped way below coverline ladies..so looks like I'm out this month. Such a shame, was starting to get excited to test. Haven't slept much the last few nights as I was excited to wake up and POAS! The body is cruel!

Hope you're all doing ok. Lashings of baby dust 💫

@Liam2018 looks close to me! Did it get any darker the last couple of days?

Ladies how would you feel
About a tissue CM pic?? I feel like I have ewcm but I don't actually know x

myttcjourney · 22/01/2020 14:00

@Ellabella234 go for it, I've seen it all from being on there forums

We're all going through the same thing x

Ellabella234 · 22/01/2020 15:00

Felt wet down there today then after I had a wee I wiped and a blob of cm came out. Not yellow (if the photo makes it look yellow?) it was pretty clear. Ewcm?

danielasummer · 22/01/2020 15:32

@Ellabella234 I would say that is EWCM! Go for it! x

Ellabella234 · 22/01/2020 15:50

@danielasummer Thanks love that's reassuring to at least know that is most likely it! Are we all different in when we actually ovulate after or while having ewcm then? Or does it mean im most fertile over next few days? Clueless sorry. Shame I'm not with OH this evening to bd, he's at the new house painting and working hard getting it straight for us, I'm at my mums with DD ☹️ x

Ellabella234 · 22/01/2020 19:50

This is this evenings OPK. The darkest I've ever had but I know it's not positive yet. With today's ewcm maybe I'm on my way to a dark second line next few days? 🤞🏼 for a positive opk for me soon ladies. Do they usually build and get darker like that?

Evening! How's everyone doing? I felt my cervix for the first time EVER today and felt the massive need to share this with you lot 😂😂😂

Ellabella234 · 24/01/2020 16:49

Look what I just got! Positive ...I think?? I'm so happy just to have found when I'm ovulating and be more in the know of how my body is around ovulation even if i don't fall pregnant this month, I know now for next month - ewcm a few days before my +ve opk rest. And how my body feels. I'm chuffed just to know right now! CD18!

@danielasummer how are you doing?
@Elly88 how are you feeling?
Everyone else on the thread how you all getting on? X

Elly88 · 24/01/2020 17:39

@Ellabella234 yes I get ewcm few days before OPK too. I find having sex exactly when you see ewcm successful! And then every other day for few days too. Mine doesn't always even last a whole day so make sure you're checking!
I feel great thank you 😀

Gupster · 24/01/2020 17:59

Good evening all, af arrived this morning, feeling crappy and crampy 😂
Here's to the next cycle, I'm going to try opk this month, does anyone have any advice on when you start it etc as I am clueless? Thanks x

AngelSon · 26/01/2020 17:47

Hi all, can I join? On CD17 now and think I ovulate don CD11 with the one step OPK test. The instructions say almost equal or darker line for the test line for these test and think that was close although my afternoon test was very light but maybe due to my urine being diluted! What do you think?

AF over and done with here... DTD every other day and we fly away on our honeymoon a week today!! Taking a relaxed and chilled approach this month, trying not to get bogged down with OPKs and stressing... just good old fashioned DTD regularly and hoping for the best 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Hoping everyone is well xxxx

Morganmom · 26/01/2020 20:33
