@SS123456 when do you take your temp? Your opks looked so clear and followed the right pattern?! Maybe temping doesn't actually help 😂 it doesn't actually tell you when you are going to ovulate, just makes us paranoid for the rest of the month that maybe we didn't!!

This is is mine,
I'm worried my LH Surge was so low, it was twice that last month! And lasted a couple of days....

@AnxiousAnnie86 haha! im going to try and be strong this time, but DH is away the week leading up to when AF is due so i'll have to keep myself distracted, although that might help because I want to find out when he's here so we can find out together. So it'll make me wait!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 16/02/2020 11:19

@biscuit13 it's tough I'm out next weekend which will be 8 dpo so it's the question of is it okay to have a drink..... I don't have a good feeling about this month, but months when I've had a feeling I haven't been so who knows x

OP posts:
biscuit13 · 16/02/2020 11:38

@AnxiousAnnie86 I'm sure it would be ok to have a small amount, I mean that's about the earliest time it could implant and its not using your blood supply until after implantation has occurred. It's up to you, I mean for me personally, I wouldn't but that's because I dont really drink anyway.

AnxiousAnnie86 · 16/02/2020 11:50

@biscuit13 think I might skip it, I don't want anything to risk the chances of implantation occurring.... how long have you been trying now?

AnxiousAnnie86 · 16/02/2020 12:01

I'm also going for reflexology on Monday hoping that's going to help! X

@AnxiousAnnie86 this is actually only my 2nd month trying so very early on. I've read so many posts though and actually find the science of it quite interesting. How long have you been trying?
Ooh will be interesting to see if that helps! X

AnxiousAnnie86 · 16/02/2020 17:32

@biscuit13 since August last year, had a MC end of October at about 6/7 weeks, then my periods only returned at the end of Jan so it's been a bit of a struggle! I'm not sure if it will help but it is supposed to get the blood flow going so I'm sure can only aid it, I've read loads of people saying it really helps but could be coincidence x

OP posts:
biscuit13 · 16/02/2020 18:52

@AnxiousAnnie86 sorry to hear about your MC. Yes it wont do any harm!
So I've pretty much convinced myself that I haven't got a chance this month, had such a bad cold and now got an eye infection.... so thinking theres no way my body is healthy enough to get pregnant this month. I'll hang around though and see how you girls get on! X

Britblue · 16/02/2020 20:26

Hi everyone!
This is my first time posting here! I’ve been reading some other threads and I need an outlet for the 2WW frustration so I thought I’d join you! I can see a theme that DH will only listen to so much!

I am 2dpo second cycle TTC. I have been using digital OPKs. Has anyone else been using this or monitoring BBT? I feel I’m too impatient not to track it!

MySweetLittleTriffid · 16/02/2020 20:50

Evening all! I'm 1dpo if premom is to be believed. Been OPKing and this is my first month using pre-seed too. Reckoning I'll order a thermometer for next cycle as I have long cycles and irregular ovulation so BBT plus Opk might work on pinpointing if/when.

I've got some ICs and a couple of FRER but I aim to not test until earliest 14 dpo (if I test at all. I had a peak OPK five days earlier than I thought I would (CD21) so I'll be interested to see if AF arrives any earlier too (42+ day cycles)

AnxiousAnnie86 · 16/02/2020 21:51

@MySweetLittleTriffid @Britblue welcome!! 2dpo all round it seems! When does the symptom spotting begin 😂 my issue is I seem to have sore breast from ovulation through to period so can't even symptom spot for that lol! I'm doing bbt for first time this month, so I'm not really sure what I'm doing it's only risen a tiny bit x

OP posts:
AnxiousAnnie86 · 16/02/2020 21:52

@Britblue also my first month with digital xx

OP posts:
Lmac2018 · 16/02/2020 21:57

I had 2 days of VERY strong opk up until Friday afternoon, me and my partner have DTD for the last 2 days including today so hopefully we've done it this month

MySweetLittleTriffid · 16/02/2020 22:13

I'm genuinely going to try and not symptom spot. (Hollow laugh!)

I've had blood tests this month (and am waiting on a gynae appt but it's a 4-6 month waiting list) to investigate if I ovulate and why my cycles are so long. So I'm not holding out much hope for a natural conception tbh, as miserable as that sounds 😂

Although, I a glass of prosecco with my tea earlier, drank it too fast and had to go throw up and thought "maybe I'm pregnant!" Then immediately thought "you literally ovulated yesterday, dickhead!" 😂

AnxiousAnnie86 · 17/02/2020 06:42

@SS123456 hey, how's your bbt this morn, mines dropped back down again! X

SS123456 · 17/02/2020 07:08

@AnxiousAnnie86 it's risen a touch but nothing significant, it's very confusing! 🤨

Mind if I jump on ladies?
I'm 28, my husband is 28. Officially off Cerelle en of November 2019.
Had withdrawal few days later, no AF all December.. horrible one January and as it's stands nothing February... apparently on CD 44 but definitely think I ovulated around 8/9 Feb as had a peak opk... DTD 9/10th so fingers crossed 🤞
Thinking flo May come if she is round 22nd but who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️
Currently waiting to test but unsure when... according to my other app if that was my peak I'm 9DPO... feeling so wet down below 🤦🏻‍♀️ nipples slightly tender.

Elmlee · 17/02/2020 07:37

See pic 🤞

Thanks for your lovely welcome! I’m still relatively new to all this, what apps do you recommend for tracking? I’m currently using Clue but not sure if this is the best one?

Maidmummy · 17/02/2020 13:36

Hi ladies am I ok to join,

I'm a little further than you guys I'm 9dpo today and cycle #1 TTC baby #4

Hardly any symptoms as of yet apart from achy boobs and today I've suddenly come down with a head cold so who knows 🤷 and last night it felt like the area around my left ovary was throbbing lasted around 5 mins then turned into mild cramps and backache. I plan to test in the am although not holding out much hope for a BFP x

Lmac2018 · 17/02/2020 16:02

Hi ladies, if I had a positive opk Thursday all day and then Friday afternoon and we DTD around twice in that time including yesterday morning as well. Do you think I would've caught ? And when do you think I ovukate ?

AnxiousAnnie86 · 17/02/2020 17:09

@Lmac2018 they say 24 hours from first positive opk, so that would put you as Friday ovulation same as me :) so you would of DTD On the day of ovulation, they say it's good to get in before as well but that can be really hard when you've no idea when! I only did it Wednesday and Friday and ovulated Friday I think, x
