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

The top one is my stick yesterday on cd 8 and today is the bottom on cd 9, there's definite progression as one is blank.
How close would you guys be to ovulation with that line as I'm worried I'm missing my peak. My estimate is another 3-6 days time according to my apps.

The photo came out the wrong way! The one on the right was first

DKDK123 · 07/07/2020 15:43

@Minster2012 it was an unexpected nap, he was put in his room for hitting and fell asleep of his own accord which was like winning the lottery as he'd been a wee horror all morning! 😂 Hes started trying to drop his nap completely which I'm so not prepared for, I need that half hour for my sanity!

What a grump that guys was about the park, glad the kids had a chance to use it before he stuck his nose in!

2alreadywantanother · 07/07/2020 15:45

@busybee143 dont think u do. Some can tell with cm etc. It called that because sperm can live for up to 5 days leaving u with a chance if u DTD within thos days. (I stand to be corrected as this is our 1st cycle)
But the thing is to try and pin point when u ovulate. If u once have sex once a wk u could completely miss ur window. Or u could be very lucky and do it within the right window.
I dont even know if I ovulated or if I still am. So I'm gona try out the sticks this month. Hopefully see a line and watch for symptoms, cm etc. If I ovulated this cycle we DTD alot and there was a max of 2 days we didnt DTD in between so our chances were high we DTD at the right times but who knows

DKDK123 · 07/07/2020 15:46

@Busybee143 looks like you could still be quite a few days from your peak. The second line will get just as dark if not darker than the control line. However some people peak really quickly and some have a gradual peak. Once you've done it this month and see your progression you'll have a better idea of how quickly yours peaks.

2020mission · 07/07/2020 15:47

@Busybee143 your LH tests look quite low so I wound to worry about being close to a surge yet. I've attached my tests this month so you can see how mines progressed for reference, but everyone will differ. Keep testing once a day until it looks much more obvious of a line, then test a few times a day.

@2alreadywantanother thank you 🥰 x

@Minster2012 could you imagine the poor kid would be so embarrassed with that for a middle name! Your photo of your boy just had me laughing so loud! That's one for his 18th! X

2alreadywantanother · 07/07/2020 15:48

@busybee143 what app and can u use with any opk?
They are 2 different sticks there both with only 1 line. Should there not be 2 if ovulating

2alreadywantanother · 07/07/2020 15:50

@2020mission is there an app u can use with any opk? Or do u buy from a crowd that have an app. I'm planing on using next mth

Busybee143 · 07/07/2020 15:53

@2020mission
I'm a lot behind as you've already got to your peak.
Im just wondering why I get my peak so late on a short cycle. So by your sticks surely the 28th is your peak so you've ovulate about the 29th? Question though, if you had to inseminate twice what days would you have picked?

2020mission · 07/07/2020 15:55

@2alreadywantanother yeah I'm using the Femometer app to track those OPK tests. The OPK tests are One Step, so a different brand from Femometer and it works fine 👍🏼 I think they just need to look similar so that it can read the lines.

2020mission · 07/07/2020 15:58

@Busybee143 it shows the darkest lines when you're about to ovulate in the next 24 hours roughly, so I would DTD (or inseminate) as soon as possible when it's showing the strongest lines on the OPK, the test line being at least as dark as the control line. Of course if you are able to, the days before and days after would also help too. But I think optimal time is when those lines are the strongest so that they swim into place on time for ovulation.

2020mission · 07/07/2020 15:59

@Busybee143 sorry I just saw you said you plan to inseminate twice... if it was me I'd go with the day when both lines are strong, and again the day after.

Franklydear · 07/07/2020 16:07

@2alreadywantanother the rationale seems to be I can still fuck my wife she just cannot enjoy it, misogyny... ignore and carry on

Minster2012 · 07/07/2020 16:36

@Franklydear yes of course my wife/OH must ONLY be fertilised & implanted. she MUST not then enjoy it. Shame, some of us rather like it 🤔😬OH FUCK ME & FUCK OFF THEN. I'm pretty sure ladies who orgasm get pregnant too. Same as thin ones, fat ones, drug users, alcoholics, meat eaters, vegans funny that, most ladies. Just takes some of us a bit longer.

@cocoblue22 oh you don't know the half of what we have for DS for his 18th. We are mean. The shit shots are the best. I quite like "Blake pouffe whatever" pah you can get away with anything nowadays 😂🤣 how do you know DS isn't called "puff". Though he was called a girl whilst out dog walking this morning. Long hair & rainbows.

@Busybee143 how much notice do you need for the insemination? Like is it bloke or a Baster? I mean that only half seriously but the question is serious cos I understand why you want to know. Can @TTCmummy2021 or @DAC21 offer any advice as they've been through it?

@katao ive def not got more to complain about! I have a miracle child here (devil sometimes as he is!) and wish for good news for us both!

@KateColx totally get the "thank god someone who gets it!" 🤣

@blodyn91 id love to get some lovely wool and make a rug with it, my SIL has done it from her 3 pet sheep but not offered any around (miserable 🐄 she is) anyways

Katao · 07/07/2020 16:42

@Minster2012 oh I know, I didn't mean in general, just with af being a twat 😂
I'm sure your little miracle puts a shine on life 😁

Katao · 07/07/2020 16:44

That was supposed to be a smile at the end, not sure why it looks like a grimace 🤪

blodyn91 · 07/07/2020 16:48

@Minster2012 made it herself? I need to do this! Would be a good little business 🤔🤔

@Busybee143 Ill attach my OPK results as well, so my cycle ended up being 28 days, and I ovulated on day 17, confirmed with bbt. Maybe you should consider bbt as well, so you can really pin point Ovulation since you only have the two chances. Even now after one cycle of proper tracking, 3 apps have 3 different ovulation prediction dates.

@2alreadywantanother @Juno231 yeah think I've decided to wait until September and then go see the Dr, can't do any harm can it x

@Minster2012 wait I'm going back to your first sex pic, where are his legs how is this possible? That surf dude is my fave, can't believe he'd ever be a devil 🥰

@Cocoblue22 I need to follow your lead feel like I'm an amateur tester with my one boots test in the work toilets last time 😂 how are you feeling? xx

@LV1987 learn from my mistakes flicking CM does not turn men on 😂

@KateColx sorry your AF is being a bitch to you my little golden haired prinny, I'm feeling A-okay today which obviously when waiting to test is complete BS 🙄

Welcome @duckii 👋 👋

@Mococo1 yes to a fellow nandoer, just realised it's open opposite work so if it's bad news tomorrow that's my lunch sorted. Yay ovulation tomorrow definitely doing a couple more bangs for luck 👌🏾

Such a busy day at work so I'm clearly replying to things about 7hrs ago when I opened this 😂 femometer is predicting my period to start tomorrow which I thought was crazy but now having a bit of abdominal twinges... I'm going to pee on my first ever FRER even if period is in full flow in the morning ✌🏾

OP posts:
2alreadywantanother · 07/07/2020 17:13

Well I've date night tomorrow night instead of sat. We are still getting a free leg sat night but places rushing you out when times up for next customers. So we are going for food and drinks tomorrow evening. Taxi and all is booked for 6.15pm 😂😂 cant wait. Will do a IC in morning just to check but not expecting to see anything

DAC21 · 07/07/2020 17:41

@Busybee143 Not sure I can offer anything useful, my wife used the Clearblue Digital OPKs (the simpler version which goes from an 'O' to a smiley, no flashing phase). She had an 'O' in the morning then a smiley at 4pm, phoned the clinic and they booked her in for the insemination for 11am the next day. This was only one insemination, but intra-uterine. Are you doing it at home?
Good luck!

SarahTTC2020 · 07/07/2020 17:50

@Minster2012 I find your replies hilarious 🤣🤣 love your sense of humour!!

@SmileyT hahaha yes test away!! Seriously hope the bitch stays away though! I've got a lot of symptoms so I feel like I've synced up with you

Busybee143 · 07/07/2020 17:56

Thanks for the help guys
@Minster2012 it's a syringe job not a man haha so any advice would be welcome, thank you so much for tagging some help for me. I normally give a few days notice to our lovely donor.

Thanks @blodyn91 that helps!

@DAC21 yeah we're doing it at home, would a smiley face be the same as getting a peak on an ovulation stick?

Mococo1 · 07/07/2020 17:59

@KateColx @minster2012 thank you! I can't even remember what I did last cycle to get myself pregnant pretty sure I had given up by peak time as well 😂

I certainly didn't have such high LH readings leading up to ovulation and then have another darker peak (180% of fermometer) after I had a peak (100% yday) 🤣 the app says I'm due to ovulate today so I guess it's the correct timing! Also I'm getting cramping now so must be..

DH is just gna have to be okay with DTD today and tomorrow to cover but I'm sure that won't be a problem x

@Busybee143 I would just keep testing and make sure you aren't testing when you've drunk a lot of water and do it around 1.30pm or if u have enough sticks 1pm and 4pm x I found watching YouTube videos good to understand ovulation - so you know how long your cycles are?

@smileyt Nando's either way to cheer you up or to celebrate I say! Craving a fino pitta and spicy rice now 😑 and a bit of halloumi on the sideeee love me a cheeky Nando's ♥️ actually missed it so much in lockdown!

blodyn91 · 07/07/2020 18:20

I bloody love a cheeky nandos. Usually go at least everyother weekend, saved so much money by not going 🙈🙈
