He did actually. He's doing good with his Pom juice too and laid off the wine. Big gold star ⭐️

I'm sure @VP91x will tip up soon with an answer. She's my OPK oracle 🔮
That line looks peak to me! But I'm no good at figuring out those, which is why I'm blowing my life savings on cb smily twats 😝
It's annoying that we can get peak and then not ovulate. That's where temping comes in but it just wouldn't work for me with my (daughters) irregular sleep pattern 🙈

@Jazper that’s what I’m fearful of this month. But I guess I can’t do much about that, just have to enjoy the ride and laugh at this OPK rollercoaster that I appear to be on!

Definitely a big star for your OH 🤩

I’m taking it as peak take 2. It’s darker than the first peak I got, and dark enough that Glow even recognised it as peak on the app, and has moved my ovulation to tomorrow. It’s the first photo glow has detected as peak 🤷🏻‍♀️
I don’t know why I’m pretending to know 😂 the only time I’ll be confident of any of this is when I get a BFP one day!

@Jazper no apparently the line darkness doesn't mean anything! Well, not anything but not how we read the opks.

Haha pomegrante seeds are so fun to eat though and yummy.

@MichT4 that's definitely your peak!!! This is exciting, yay. It is literally wednesday 'hump' day for you!! I reckon you'll just have a longer cycle. What's your LP again?

@SmileyT thanks hun, how are you today? 🥰

@Jazper I think it's because the lines are for the different hormones, but I can't remember. Will google again, deffo read it though. Ahh your OH is fab, my partner hated the POM juice. More for me though because that shit is expensive, haha xx

@MichT4 that 114 would of been your peak. My peak only ever goes to the 117 mark I think and then starts declining

MichT4 · 17/06/2020 13:49

@VP91x yeah you don’t want to be sharing that stuff!
LP is usually 13-14 days. Just worried what it all means. I don’t mind it being a longer cycle but I don’t want a shorter LP. And that’s if this leads to a little egg release! Let’s just see I suppose.
Let hump day(s) commence 😂😂

Thanks @2020wish. Any clues how long after the peak we are expected to ovulate?

@IWM20 Congratulations!! Amazing news. How clear they are when the other one was so faint!
Yay!!

Im feeling so deflated. Feel like buying a bottle of wine. Feel so tearful all day. Don’t even know why. Honestly feel like I should give up all this ttc and returning to work and just maybe trying again in 2 years time after wedding. Obviously I don’t want too stop but I feel like it’s consuming me and it’s all I can think about

MichT4 · 17/06/2020 13:55

@2020wish sorry you are feeling that way. Fair to say we’ve all been there and I’ve had a few of those moments this month. You’re not out this month yet, and if you are then there’s nothing to say it’s not going to happen really soon.
Is there anything you can distract yourself with. What about wedding plans?
And buy the wine! A glass isn’t going to hurt (or more) xx

@MichT4 I go for a nap and you get your peak 🤣 so it is between 12-36hrs apparently. So dtd today and for two more days to be covered 🤞

38 day cycle wouldn't be too outrageous. What are they normally? You might have a slightly shorter LP but that is meant to stay the same.

@IWM20 congratulations! That's fantastic news. 🥰 Wishing you a happy, healthy pregnancy.

@2020wish sorry you're feeling horrible, it could be the hormones too making you feel like this. Have the wine and get something nice to eat. I'm really hopeful for you this month ❤️

@VP91x normally 34-35 days. Although I’ve just looked and last month was 38 😳 I didn’t even realise that. I think maybe because my cycle started so light I wasn’t sure on CD1. Pre MC they were 34-35 and coming down each month after stopping the pill. MC seems to have thrown that out again. Glow is telling me it’ll be 40 days if my LP stays the same

Sister just sent her scan pics. I feel very calm which is unexpected. May hit me later. Might need to buy and chocolate in case 🥂

@MichT4 ahh so not that much longer than your usual! And same as last month if you have a 13 day LP. Great news!! Well, there was no better day than today to get your peak really. Have a wine later too 🥰

I cant imagine how you feel getting your Hope's up getting pregnant but not sticking but take the positive that you can get pregnant rather easily and hopefully you'll have some answers soon about making them stick or your aspirin may work xxx sending a virtual hug xxx

Hi all, can I join?

Currently cycle day 15. Got pregnant on last months cycle but turned out to be a chemical. Not sure where ovulation is, should be now according to my app but who knows, I’ve heard it can be all over the place. Been DTD every day since last Friday, more so cos we’ve just felt like it! Having really bad bloating and cramping today so wondering whether ovulation is correct! We’ll see!

HopeForRainbowbaby · 17/06/2020 14:32

@MichT4 it looks positive!
@IWM20 congratulations!!Wohoo 🥳 I wish you healthy pregnancy 🤰

@2020wish im also thinking of wine already. If I get period, I'm sooo drinking .... but you are not out ! Hmm maybe try to focus on something else to help you relax ? Series ? Movies ? Some works at home?

@2020wish I think it's all a bit confusing when it comes to exact dates. As your first peak was 1pm, you could well have ovulated that day though if it's 12-36 hours.

I'd definitely say get the wine. I know some prefer not to do some of these things when TTC, but you have to have the balance I think, and have the things that aren't necessarily about TTC. I think most of us fell first time with much less awareness, so go for it!

I will definitely be treating myself later @VP91x. Whatever all this means, I feel more positive and less stressed today - it obviously helps to see things appear to be telling me the right things. No point now getting bogged down with long cycles (see - finding something else to worry about). Just DTD, drink a bit of wine and enjoy the positives.

Until tomorrow.....haha

Thanks @Renna and @HopeForRainbowbaby. Just hope this is the real deal

@Renna as you know I have been doing lots of Ava chart research and I think first month, a lot of people choose to back up with the normal BBT method until it's all consistent, so you never know - your Femometer might be right. How much have your Ava ones dropped? Have you got a pic?
