Not added anyone that I don’t have dates for but I’ve not forgotten you just let me know when you know you ovulate/ know your test dates ☺️

@lucyrp they say not to test with fmu as the surge happens mid morning so if people test daily they'll miss that days surge but if it's not surge day it doesn't make too much difference, also high on femometer just means there is a 2nd line yours isn't close to peak so I wouldn't read too much into that, just counted and femometer marked 13 days as high in my last cycle at varying points 🤷🏾‍♀️

@Katao sounds like the right idea, tbh I find it much easier to read the opks once you've seen what they do the rest of the cycle so you can see what your personal 'peak' looks like x

@unluckyducky probably sounds really weird but if I say I'm sad or stressed it just makes me feel worse so just try and say out loud that I'm happy or positive and smile a lot and it kinda forces my brain to get on board 🧘‍♀️ so I'm saying a lot that I'm feeling positive about a new cycle because no point feeling shit about what could've been. How are you today? Xx

@SmileyT I think I'm just going to take them every day and take pictures and record them on the app so I can see progression if anything until something happens!

@TTCmummy2021 I just think the midwife thinks I'm stupid so that's probably why 🤷🏼‍♀️

Thanks for the reply @Mococo1 the darkest one is actually fmu! I think you are right though, should do them later in the day. I used CB last month so just in the habit of testing in the morning. Dud afternoon and evening too though as the first one wasdark. As for ewcm , no idea....cm is a mystery to me 🙈😂 I mean I have some amount and its clear but I don't think it changes a lot throughout my cycle so I've never paid much attention to it. Maybe i need to get on the grapefruit juice!

DKDK123 · 13/06/2020 11:47

@TTCmummy2021 not in Disney land!!! Dreams are supposed to be made there not broken. How awful for you guys. You definitely have a had a shitty run of it and deserve your happy ending soon. 🤞

KRK05 · 13/06/2020 11:49

@lucyrp Femometer records any OPK with a second line as high, Premom gives more accurate that wouldve recorded yours as low cause 16 is actually really low. Youl get used to it my first time last cycle I thought I was broken 😂 Incase u didnt know & it freaks u out there is basically always a second line on an OPK. I'd defo keep it up though cause will give u more of an idea of your body 🤗 if u read the instructions though or even look online u dont use FMU for the IC as its inaccurate results, it's only CB that does that cause it works different with the 2 hormones. If your like me & struggle to hold they do say 4 hours but I only held for around 2 or 3 & still drank liquids just not as much as I wouldve & didnt affect my results cause I still had 5 peaks 😂

@TTCmummy2021 Sorry to hear your bad news 😪 lifes so cruel sometimes. I had an Ectopic too like your wife, not near as serious though as I didnt lose a tube but it is extra worry for when the time comes for another BFP as it's always there wondering what if again. So much baby dust for future cycles 💕

lucyrp · 13/06/2020 11:52

@KRK05 I definitely can't download another app I was thinking of deleting the ones I've got so definitely not a good idea to get another one 😂 yeah I thought there should always be a second line and 16 is very low. Oh god I don't think these are for me if I have to hold wee I don't want to be thinking about it all day every day 😬

KRK05 · 13/06/2020 11:55

@lucyrp I was the same I found it stressful cause then it was like a thought process throughout the whole day of timing wee, liquids & tests 😂 so I just done mines around 11/12 o clock then about 5/6ish. But u get used to it, I was pissed off at the start doing it tbh but cause it was new 🙈 even just test once mid day until u see line get darker then up it to 2.

Sydgal22 · 13/06/2020 11:59

@LV1987 @J0DI3 hey cycle buddies. Nothing going on for me here :/ I’m absolutely exhausted but that’s due to a bad sleep and getting up early!
Very very small bit of cm which I could only see cause of dark underwear.
Nearly 100 percent certain I’m out. I had two beers this eve so I’ll be tucked up in bed soon! Do you think you’ll hold off until the 20th?

lucyrp · 13/06/2020 12:07

@KRK05 I feel like I've wasted my money now! I'm in such an irritable mood today so probably not the best time to think about it. Being told you have to wait and see what happens is annoying. I don't want to think about not weeing when I want too 😬 I feel like not doing anything at all because its all so stressful !

SmileyT · 13/06/2020 12:29

@lucyrp Yes that's a good plan with the opks, I just did one a day at around 4.30 when I got home from work but then I also did some first thing and they always picked up my peak so I wouldn't stress about the time or holding your wee 👌🏾 but if you'll find it more stressful definitely don't do it xx

Ahh so glad it's going well @unluckyducky I know it's hard but please try and enjoy every minute ☺️

TTCmummy2021 · 13/06/2020 12:46

@DKDK123 - yep, and our ectopic last year was also there. It's our favourite place ever but equally cursed!!

@KRK05 - I'm sorry you have been through the same. The anxiety is very different to miscarriage I find. Not just worrying about loosing but also if it's in the right place. So horrible 🥺

Minster2012 · 13/06/2020 12:54

Oh no that's awful @lucyrp so many hugs for you

@TTCmummy2020 have I missed something, is your wifeys line not progressing?

DKDK123 · 13/06/2020 13:09

@TTCmummy2021 oh no, seriously what are the chances! Well the universe definitely owes you guys maybe its 3rd time lucky that the next news you get when your in Disney land won't be bad news maybe that's where you guys will get your BFP!

TTCmummy2021 · 13/06/2020 13:12

@Minster2012 - she did another this morning and there was nothing so don’t know what to think 🥺 chemical maybe?

@DKDK123 - maybe! Who knows! It’s not open atm sadly so not anytime soon!

Minster2012 · 13/06/2020 13:18

Oh no @TTCmummy2020 I'm hoping that's not the case 😥🤞🏻

Newbie0818 · 13/06/2020 13:24

@Mococo1 aww bless you. I suppose the further along you get you'll feel it's more real! I'd be testing every day knowing my denial 🙈😅I was going to ask what people meant by uterus stretching haha! What exactly does it feel like? I've been having cramps on and off the past few days radiating through to my back 😖 not usual af style cramps, but milder. Not sure what that might be.

@unluckyducky @lucyrp my opk's always have a line (attached). But everyone's different. I always test in afternoon as morning never shows up.

Katao · 13/06/2020 13:31

@Newbie0818 are you testing 4 times a day!?
I thought I was going all out testing twice aday 😂

Newbie0818 · 13/06/2020 13:34

@Katao oh no haha! I'm not even testing anymore. It was just when I was getting ewcm and I could see they were getting darker. Didn't want to miss the surge, but alas I did 😔

KRK05 · 13/06/2020 13:41

@lucyrp Definetely dont do it if youl find it more stressful. Just be good to yourself just now 🤗

@TTCmummy2021 I 100% agree, I've had miscarriages before but this time around it's a million questions in my head & analysing every little pain thinking it's a bad thing like before. I have an early scan on the 29th June through NHS which il be bang on 7 weeks so it's just getting to that at this point then if everything is all good can relax a bit more 🤞🏻 I really really hope u get your happy ending soon, yous both definitely deserve it 🥰

Katao · 13/06/2020 13:42

Oh I see. I've only used them the last 2 months (this time around) missed my surge the first month just testing once a day but caught it last month testing twice. I think mine happens fairly quickly. Although hot it on an ic opk in the evening and CB went static next morning.

TTCmummy2021 · 13/06/2020 13:53

@KRK05 - you described it perfectly!! There's constant worry like 'is it in the right place', 'did that pain mean it's not', 'why didn't this happen'. I could go on but you know exactly what it's like! I really really hope your scan goes well ❤️ once you've seen baby is there and in the right place, hopefully you'll be able to relax a little more! Xx

Newbie0818 · 13/06/2020 13:56

@Katao yeah I think mine might be quick too. Anyhow we'll see if it meant anything soon hopefully 🤷🏼‍♀️

Mococo1 · 13/06/2020 14:06

@newbie0818 i hope so! Can't bear the thought of another loss so soon as I wasn't even sure if I was emotionally ready to try again after the loss..but figured it wouldn't happen straight away so may as well just get going and we've just been so so lucky! Stretching feels exactly like you described 😐 and are like mild af cramps? Not painful but uncomfortable? Could be Very easily confused with period as I assumed it was pre period cramps lol! looks like your peak was on the 5th if you ovulated straight after I'd say you are 7DPO? My cramps started at 8DPO and I got the faintest of lines at 9DPO and stretching has calmed a bit today..so you could really be in for a shot! Or just AF on her way confusing us all as she usually does xx

blodyn91 · 13/06/2020 14:44

@KRK05 @Katao Thanks for all the OPK Q&A very helpful.
I think im going to start on Monday, CD8, just incase I ovulate early, then will use 2 when Im nearing when app says I will ovulate (3 apps, 3 different dates 22/24/26 🙄)
