I hope @littlebee1990 doesn't mind me starting a new thread as our old one was full...

Congratulations to @SK2970 who had just posted a positive test!

(Point me in the right direction if I've missed a new thread)

@littlebee1990 I am so sorry and can't imagine the heartbreak. I am so glad you have decided to stay. Good luck to you in the next cycle. I hope it is a lucky one for us all and going to stick to your advice and lock the tests away until after AF is due. If anything it will save me a fortune. x

Nottherealslimshady · 01/07/2020 19:29

Glad you're staying @Littlebee1990 people have said that you're more fertile after a chemical so be positive, really sorry you went through that though, hope you're getting lots of DH cuddles.
I'll be joining you locking the tests away until AF is late, fingers crossed for us all this month.

I'm super excited watching my OPK darken awaiting ovulation :)

mrswilso · 01/07/2020 20:27

Glad to hear you're doing okay @littlebee1990 - been thinking of you often the past couple of days 💕
I think I'm joining with the no testing til after AF now too.

@nottherealslimshady I just got some Femometer ones today - done my first one when I got home, CD4 and I've got 55% high reading on the app! I'm 100% brand new to this but I've had a feeling I'm ovulating quite early (maybe too early?) and don't really know what to make of the result tonight haha! 🤣 according to the chart in the instructions I shouldn't be starting to test until around CD12 (just couldn't help myself - had to pee on the new pee stick!) which is confusing me even more...and I doubt it's a pregnancy cos I wasted a freaking FRER 🤦🏻‍♀️
Does anyone know if it's normal to get high readings this early?

Nottherealslimshady · 01/07/2020 20:55

@mrswilso oh I have no idea. What's your CM like? It could just be that you're one of those people that has more days with a high reading until your peak.

Gemsy18 · 01/07/2020 21:02

@mrswilso I had a high one today currently 9dpo 2nd one this month totally confused, been using opk for 3month now and my peak day seems to be around cd13/14 but keep testing see if it goes up to find your peak

mrswilso · 01/07/2020 21:14

@nottherealslimshady there's definitely not a lot of it as far as I can tell...maybe a bit wet/clear...
@gemsy18 I'm literally brand spanking new to it so I think I'll probably be checking it regularly this month after getting that reading tonight! I actually think it wasn't too far off the control to my eye but I'm going with the app for now.
Either way...hubby's in for a treat this evening 🤣

Gemsy18 · 01/07/2020 21:19

@mrswilso 😂😂 my hubby was when he got in from work today just incase I was ovulating again or late in ovu. Yes I test sometimes 2 daily around time of ovulation morning and night to see if it drops or goes up

FlyRobinFly · 01/07/2020 22:03

Still not come on...CD33 today and as my cycles typically vary between 28 days and 33 days I’m quite hopeful. Really exhausted. Was getting changed into a comfier top and took my bra off and DH commented that he’s never seen my nipples look so erect Hmm Thought he was trying it on until I looked down, and jesus they were! Never seen anything like it. Fingers crossed anyhow

Kalecat · 01/07/2020 22:43

Just gonna count myself out now 😂. AF was due today or tomorrow and I just took a test to see. White as snow! Something would show by now so guess it's on to the next cycle for us.

1992EM · 02/07/2020 05:24

@flyrobinfly Fingers crossed for you and hope you get your BFP. 💕

@kalecat Is it a sensitive test you are using? If not then it could be you just don't have enough hormone for it to detect. Your not out until AF shows 💕

Update on vitamins. Oh has taken the packet to research 👏. He won't admit I am right so I am just hoping he takes them 😂. He seems interesting in the CB tests because it has a smiley face (simple things) 😂.

AF needs to hurry up and pack her bags now. This part of the month is worse than the tww.

Fran2020 · 02/07/2020 08:18

Morning, how is everyone today?

I'm CD6 (cycle 13) and started doing OPKs again this morning! For the last two months, I got Peak on CD11 so I'd be interested to see if it's the same this month after some strange things going on in my last cycle and different bleeding for AF. I've got fertility acupuncture which is booked for around ovulation too which I'm looking forward to!

Sending positive thoughts to everyone who hasn't tested or got AF yet and everyone going in to a new month! 😊 xx

Flittingabout · 02/07/2020 09:16

Morning all,

I have been wondering about trying fertility acupuncture again too.

I dare not believe it but think I have a (valid this time!) BFP. 4 days late with some symptoms.

Gemsy18 · 02/07/2020 09:20

@Fran2020 morning. I'm day 10dpo done a frer this morning as was a BFN I feel my body is playing tricks on me this month had cramp pains past few days which I dont normally get till day before af show up, also i had high opk yesterday and feel sick today think I'm working myself up to much. Gl for you on this cycle hope it's your month 🥰

FlyRobinFly · 02/07/2020 09:23

Eee, woke up no AF! CD34 now. Boobs hurt and just feel odd. I’m actually getting quite excited about the possibility of PG...was upset about my negative FRER’s on the 25th but have come to the conclusion that it’s very likely I could have ovulated on the 17th (As cycles have been longer since CP) and therefore was only 8dpo. Only thing I’m not too happy about is only DTD on the 12th of June...just have to see and hope the swimmers were resilient Grin

Gemsy18 · 02/07/2020 09:26

@Flittingabout ooh sounds very promising, if af is late and had a bfp would say you are. Sends you lots luck and good vibes 🥰

buckingmad · 02/07/2020 09:42

Hi everyone,

I'm 10dpo and due to test 4th July. Been having weird pully style cramps today and sore boobs since about 7dpo which is a lot earlier than usual for pre-AF symptoms. BBT has been steadily climbing since ovulation. OH's parents are visiting this weekend and it would be so lovely to have some good news for them!

cd24x · 02/07/2020 10:00

Morning all.

Been lurking in the background as don't really have much to update on.

CD32 and still no AF. Tested with a FRER on Tuesday just gone and stark white. So am definitely counting myself out now as last time we DTD was on CD13. Even if I ovulated late on CD18 and the sperm from CD13 miraculously managed to reach anything, that would make me 14DPO so I would have expected to see a faint line on Tuesday.

I have sore boobs but that's it. Had this last month before AF. Keep going to the loo to check she's turned up and nothing so far. Never thought I'd be wishing for AF to show, but I just want to get into next cycle!

1992EM · 02/07/2020 14:57

Good luck to everyone still waiting for AF to arrive. Hope you get you BFP.

Has anyone tried preseed ? It gets good reviews on Amazon.

Whilstwewait · 02/07/2020 15:28

I'm here too. Finally CD1 im just happy to have a new chance this month after a few days of spotting and knowing I was out least im closer to ovulation Grin

@1992EM ive tried it and it didnt work for me. Apparently when tested it on DR Phil or some tv programme like that and it actually kills some sperm so its only advised if you need lube for sex anyway as its better than normal lube. But if you don't you're better off without. Ive heard loads of success stories though but I guess they may have got pregnant that month even without it xx

1992EM · 02/07/2020 16:01

@whilstwewait Thank you, I may just leave it then as we don't normally use anything. Good luck in your next cycle x

FlyRobinFly · 02/07/2020 16:04

Still no AF. If she’s coming I wish she’d hurry up. Every passing hour that the stupid cow doesn’t show her face the more excited I get about possible PG and the more devastating it it when she actually does come.

Littlebee1990 · 02/07/2020 16:10

My bleeding is also easing off.. I should only be a few days behind most of you for CD1 and trying for a little rainbow 🌈🤞🏼

msanne · 02/07/2020 16:28

@Littlebee1990 - I am so sorry for your loss...i've just been catching up on the posts! Sending you so much love and hoping for that rainbow baby soon xoxo

KatieFH · 02/07/2020 17:30

Still very very faint lines. Very light pink blood though now. Very confused. Think AF is here and I’m getting evap lines 😔

@KatieFH sorry to hear you think AF is here 😔.
@flyrobinfly I have everything crossed for you.

Ovulation tests have all arrived and just waiting for AF to pack her bags so I can start testing.
