Ovulation buddies starting July 8-14

[Tiff94]

Hey everyone,

Anyone else just started ovulation or about to start in the next week. Let's start a chat and keep ourselves busy as we head through ovulation and the dreaded 2WW.

Little about me this is my 2 cycle at TTC Baby no.1 I'm about to start ovulation on fri or sat, so going to make the most of this week. I've ordered some IC ovulation sticks hopefully will arrive in next couple days and I will give them a try out. What is everyone else doing to prepare themselves for ovulation???

@Tiff94 ye it's strange body feels pregnant lol I've known every time before a got a BFP strange but this time I do think I'm out I've never not got a BFP by now af tomorow so well see xx

@lastbany have you used any FRER or CB I felt like all the cheapies gave me negative.

Thanks @beckyBP

Oh my @Tiff94 this is amazing news!!!!
Congratulations!
Almost caved and tested this morning, but promised myself I would wait until Sunday.
.. day out yesterday helped as a distraction!

@Milliemoo222 thanks fingers crossed for you too. Hope you can hold out until Sunday 😊

@Tiff94 fabulous news congratulations!!!!
Did you use the weeks one? I confirmed mine the same day with an afternoon wee, it said so they will date me 3-4! I was so nervous thinking it wouldn't show pregnant!!
How many dpo are you?
Baby dust to all xx

@Tiff94 well it was a cheap frear lol I got two for £3 at chemist it's all they had!! It did say from day 10 po though! I have bigger cramps now so I'm gearing myself up for mine ing x

@ohbaby3 I just used a CB early secrecy with the line and I got a faint one this morning. I have a digital and another early detect (came in set of 3) I would say I'm either 13/14 dpo today. I'm nervous to use the digital in case it's doesn't show too. I did afternoon wee yesterday and my FRER line was darker then that morning. So I'm thinking to wait maybe tomorrow or Saturday for digital as AF expected then.

@lastbany I definitely don't trust the cheapies now after using the FRER and CB and they both show were the ic haven't at all. I kinda had a outline on one yesterday afternoon also might keep trying with them to see if the line shows up or not.

@Tiff94 I'm all out now so if no af by Monday I'll do another but I'm sure I will see her x

@lastbany well here to you not seeing her 😊

Guys I've sent myself mad! Got a blood test and my levels are only 8. For a pregnancy they should range between 5-50 in the first 3 weeks, so I'm really low but I'm also really early as in 10/11DPO. I have taken 3 CB digitalis now and no pregnant. And a negative cheapie although still positive FRER but not getting darker (since yesterday lol) anyone else know much about blood work?

@Tiff94 just caught up on the chat CONGRATS ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

@Gab101 not until further along I've never heard of blood tests before preg test so I'm no good on this 😩 but of it has to be above 5 and your 8 I would say good sign!!

@Gab101 thanks we're baby buddies haha 😂 no clue with bloods I've just called my hospital to book blood test so no clue. My CB are still very faint so we probably just so early on most people (that aren't ttc) only find out after there AF due. We tested before so it will be low I read it double every 48/72 hours so that could be why so low

I took a CB digital yesterday morning and tonight and still nothing but you have to be higher than 15 hcg to get a positive on that so maybe tomorrow. Fingers crossed I'm just being paranoid!! Sooo excited for ya all and the girls whose BFP are on route!!

@lastbany your right at least I'm not negative!!

@Gab101 I recon wait a few more days to test let the levels go up I will probably use my other CB tomorrow then digital on Sat or sun. But will do a few ic in between haha see if any lines come up.

Lady's who are still waiting how many days left til your testing/waiting for AF can't wait to see the BFP all over this group

@Tiff94 yes good idea. No point worrying myself. If it's meant to be it will be! I wonder if I can not take any tests until Sunday.... that would be amazing effort from me but I doubt it 😂

@Tiff94 AF due tomorrow for me. Will run out and get some tests tomorrow if it doesn't arrive 🤞🏽 what tests do you ladies recommend? Z

If my DH knew how crazy I was I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t want another baby with me😂

I’m only 6/7 dpo but obviously tested earlier. BFN. Why, why do we do this?

I’m using wondfo cheapies from amazon.

@beckyBP I'd get either FRER or CB all the cheapies came back negative even when I got positive with FRER.

Thanks ladies @Sexnotgender & @Tiff94 I think I'd go for FRER or CB! Xx

[quote Tiff94]@ladylouez so have you ovulated yet or are you still trying to figure that out. ? Most of us here I think only just started opks this month to. I used the cheap ones from amazon and I never saw my peak but I knew when I ovulated. Which was back two week ago. [/quote]
No, I'm very new to this so still trying to figure out when I ovulate. I have irregular periods so I've been going back and forth the docs for a while. Long story short, she kept saying that there was nothing wrong with me but I kept saying there was (otherwise my cycles wouldn't be so unreliable). Been through countless blood tests and the last two haven't picked up what they should have in terms of ovulation. I was referred to a gynecologist back in January and should hear about an appointment August time. So I've tried to start looking for signs myself as lockdown has not helped with it playing on my mind 😞
