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)

@Kalecat now I'm questioning everything I've learned from doctor google! 😂

Kalecat · 16/07/2020 18:00

Managed to DTD last night for the last time lol... I don't think my poor DH will want to have sex ever again after 5 days straight 😂. I'm officially 1 DPO! When's everyone testing?
My AF is due 29th and we're going for holidays to my MILs house from 31st-9th..... if I get a BFP I'm worried about how I will hide it considering we drink wine almost nightly when we visit her, so she will definitely question me 🙈

Nottherealslimshady · 16/07/2020 18:20

@Kalecat your poor hubby! You're on antibiotics for a uti 👍

I'm due between Tuesday and Thursday, so testing friday if AF hasn't shown, not wasting money on testing early when I'll just tell myself it's not accurate if I get a BFN 😂

1992EM · 16/07/2020 18:32

@kalecat That is good going . Yes I agree just say your on antibiotics.

I am not due AF until 30th so will test then as like @nottberealslimshady I wouldn't believe it if it was BFN or BFP so no point 🤣.

Fran2020 · 16/07/2020 18:49

Hey everyone, how are you all? Approx 7DPO here and another bad nights sleep and felt exhausted today. As well as pretty rubbish. I've also noticed I have spots all on my left check and left side of my neck- does this mean anything? AF is due approx Thursday/ Friday next week but not sure when to test. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@1992EM did you and your partner enjoy the rest?!

@Littlebee1990 how are you today?

@mrswilso That's good you're feeling cautiously optimistic, I am feeling the same. It sounds like you've given yourselves a great chance. Did you have a night off in the end?!

@Kalecat yeah I agree with the others, say you're on antibiotics.

1992EM · 16/07/2020 19:31

@Fran2020 not sure about the symptoms. Hopefully it is pregnancy related. I have read that a few people feel very tired during the first 2 weeks. Fingers crossed.
We enjoyed the night off🤣.

Littlebee1990 · 16/07/2020 19:57

@Fran2020 Confused! My OPKs never peaked and my app says I ovulated 3 days ago!! Makes NO sense at all, I’ve never ovulated CD14. So confused 😢

1992EM · 16/07/2020 20:13

@littlebee1990 what a shame 😔 keep testing just incase you get your peak later.

Fran2020 · 16/07/2020 20:18

@1992EM I know insomnia can be a symptom so fingers crossed 🤞🏼That's good you had a night off haha!

@Littlebee1990 hmm very strange, what day did you start testing? I would keep testing as maybe it's delayed even more.

1992EM · 16/07/2020 21:28

@Fran2020 oh that's good to know. I have bizarre sleep patterns though so not sure I will be able to use that as a symptom . The morning I felt sick but think it could be due to the grapefruit juice I had before bed. I made it into a smoothie tonight, which wasn't much better 🤣🤢 just downed it and hoped for the best .

mrswilso · 16/07/2020 21:53

@fran2020 I most definitely did! 🤣 hope you get a better snooze tonight 💕
@littlebee1990 argh I feel for you, just keep testing incase it creeps up on you later. Is the app maybe just going off your BBT pattern because it hasn't seen a peak yet and assuming ovulation?

mrswilso · 16/07/2020 21:53

Oh @Littlebee1990 I'm so sorry thing cycle is playing up, I don't have any answers but sending love and baby dust

Littlebee1990 · 16/07/2020 23:29

Thanks ladies, so confused. Been testing since CD12 and not had a peak and it’s now CD17.. I’ll test for a few more days but I’m so so confused. No discharge at all either and no twinges and I can always normally feel it. Ive literally had ZERO CM this cycle, no dry, no creamy.. nothing. 😟 Hope your ovaries are behaving better than mine xx

1992EM · 17/07/2020 06:07

@littlebee1990 Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you start to peak soon . Maybe your body is just taking a bit longer due to last month and you might have a longer cycle and ovulate late. Have everything crossed. Make sure to treat yourself over the weekend to something nice to try and take your mind off it 💕.

mylittlebean2019 · 17/07/2020 07:43

@Littlebee1990 sorry to hear that. Looks like on your graph you have been DTD regularly so maybe you missed the surge but still caught the egg?

My ovaries are also messing me around. I just got my 8th day of flashing smiley 😫 I’m on CD21 and done the deed 7 times already. Not sure how much longer I can go for 😂 Also running out of CB sticks!! Hope I get that static tomorrow!

Littlebee1990 · 17/07/2020 07:47

HUGE temp drop today and not even a hint of a second line on the OPKS.. perhaps I did ovulate much earlier as the graph suggests and I missed it.. I am baffled!

@mylittlebean2019 Sometimes I wonder if we’re better just to have sex and not bother with all this tracking!

@1992Em Thank you, sure it’ll work itself out and defo gonna buy myself something!

1992EM · 17/07/2020 08:38

@mylittlebean Hopefully you get a static today 💕 how long are your cycles normally?

@littlebee1990 definitely deserve to treat yourself 💕

Fran2020 · 17/07/2020 10:10

@1992EM So many things can be symptoms or can be happening for other reasons so it's hard to know! All I know is I don't feel right and I'm exhausted! 😩😂 oh dear, that's not good with the grapefruit juice! I've not tried that yet haha!

@mrswilso Thank you, but nope another bad nights sleep. 😴 how are you feeling?

@Littlebee1990 hmm that's so strange, I'm not sure what to suggest. Keep testing and definitely treat yourself this weekend.

1992EM · 17/07/2020 11:20

@Fran2020 that's promising and hopefully a sign of a BFP soon. I am also feeling exhausted but think that is down to other things. My wee rabbit hasn't been well so not slept great that last couple of nights due to getting up to check her . She picked her timing as fell ill the day I got my positive opk🤣maybe she is telling me she doesn't want a sibling 🐰 x

mrswilso · 17/07/2020 13:18

Aw @fran2020 that's a shame! Hopefully the weekend will give you a bit of a break 💕
I'm actually feeling a bit peaky today 🥴 but I doubt it's anything pregnancy related x

Fran2020 · 17/07/2020 15:26

@1992EM I really hope so! We just dropped of my partners sample at the hospital for analysis.
awww poor rabbit!! Hahaha yeah maybe?! 😂x

@mrswilso Thank you, I'm so glad it's Friday! Oh do you, in what way?x

Kalecat · 17/07/2020 16:52

@1992EM ah, hope your rabbit feels better! 💕 so stressful when pets are ill.
I finally got a good nights sleep last night - been watching my moms cat at our place as she's on holidays, and the damn thing was howling for 3 hours the other night. Not to mention we already have 2 cats of our own so it's definitely a full house. 😂
@Littlebee1990 how frustrating!! At least you've DTD regularly and possibly could've caught it if you did ovulate already.

1992EM · 17/07/2020 17:35

@Fran2020 I hope everything goes well with the tests. 🥰
@kalecat we are definitely having a time of it with animals . Hope your Mum's cat settles soon. 💕

mrswilso · 17/07/2020 18:25

Aw maaaaan everything was going fab...and then I've got a second peak reading at what I think is 3dpo today...granted it's 110% on the app and not 200% this time around...but it's thrown my app right off now and I'm pretty certain I can't be ovulating this late as I'm a very regular 28 day cycle.
Can anyone with a bit of experience with OPKs help me out? Does this happen often?
