@candycrush2298 I'm a nose breather so hopefully should be fine. I'm not a morning person so must practice not hitting snooze lol!!!

candycrush2298 · 02/08/2020 22:54

@ReginaaPhalange I was excited to do it right and setting my alarm earlier motivated me and when I saw the progression start it got me really excited lol

@candycrush2298 oooooo i definitely see it! I hope its faint, keep us posted how tomorrow's looks. Ekkkk im excited for you. Come onnnnn we need a lucky thread this month.

Haha my hubby always said one is enough, especially after our daughter being a night owl for her first year but I've sold it to him now that if she has someone to play with she'll will give us more peace and quiet. Now hes like hell yeah because shes a demanding little monkey and wants to be given attention constantly! Lol

candycrush2298 · 02/08/2020 22:59

@Kaybobx yeah as you see there's definitely no colour. But we shall see what tomorrow brings and I agree we definitely need a lucky thread.

Lol thats a brilliant way to convince him lol.

Now go bd so you can make that second one🤣🤣

My AF is weird this cycle already haha!

TMI ahead!!!

Friday evening I wiped bright red blood..... few heavy drips while having a wee and wiped bright heavy a few times.... tampon straight in.... removed before bed.... hardly anything on it..... been the same every time I've changed it since...

Was in the shower and had a random thought of maybe it was implantation bleeding (I knew deep down it wasn't), so done a test as haven't wee'd since about 8pm, as thought - negative.

I swear if AF is playing games on me, she can bolt 😂

candycrush2298 · 03/08/2020 07:10

@ReginaaPhalange its so annoying how AF plays tricks on us. When I had two very light flows which was abnormal for me and they only lasted 2 days I thought maybe I am still pg and I wasn't AF just loves to play games lol

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 03/08/2020 07:39

@ReginaaPhalange AF is an absolute cow. I've never had late periods in my life but the last 2 months when ive really been trying ive been 3-4 days late! She likes to play tricks on us.

@candycrush2298 i got a BD in last night 🤣 i love how hubby just wakes straight up. If he woke me up for that I'd probably punch him hahaha!!!
So my temp took a dip this morning, is that normal? Or is supposed to stay high?

Have you POAS yet?

candycrush2298 · 03/08/2020 07:43

@Kaybobx lol he is a trooper and will never say no to BD lol!!! Thats so typical of a man hahahah. I would be the same dont wake me up lol.

Yes that likely means today is ovulation so you should see a high increase tomorrow or Wednesday as then you will be on the rise.
My temp didn't rise as the day before jump which I knew because that was the day I had such a bad sleep and got so hot so I fudged that temp lol and now it looks much more normal.

OP posts:
candycrush2298 · 03/08/2020 07:43

@Kaybobx and yes I did and it was negative lol!!

Kaybobx · 03/08/2020 07:54

@candycrush2298 he's a gooden haha 😄 i think we won't for a few days now I've had enough haha and we need to do his home test which needs a few days rest anyway. So here we go TWW 😭

I'm quite impressed with my chart and how I've managed to do it everyday. Its probably completely wrong but i like it haha!!

Oh man, keep trying haha. Who knows what DPO you actually are 🤣

candycrush2298 · 03/08/2020 08:20

@Kaybobx lol I know right, I am going to test the theory if this attachment works if I am pg then I can actually test it otherwise I will be holding my pee for nothing 🤣🤣🤣

Lol I know what you mean I also needed a break from BD for a few days lol!!! Oooh I cant wait for him to do the test please let me know the results.

Lol me too its been so nice for the chart to start taking shape in the beginning its like whaaaat lol!! But then it becomes evened out and looks great hahahahah!!

@candycrush2298 that chart is interesting as all tests state FMU. Well if you have a big enough stash do 2 a day 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah will let you know in a few days how the test goes. Hopefully its all ok as i wouldn't know what we would do if it wasn't 🤔 like what steps do you take then?!

If this cycle isn't successful I'm going to try the vag temping and buy the fermometrer that links with my app

candycrush2298 · 03/08/2020 08:42

@Kaybobx I know but on this Facebook group many ask what time did and dpo did you get your BFP and the most common one I have seen is 9dpo afternoon pee. So that is what got me thinking hmmm maybe there is some truth to this thing lol!!
And I have enough to test twice a day 🤣🤣🤣

Well the doctors have said he needs to go for semen analysis so if that confirms what your Dr Fertility already told you and if it were bad news then I assume there's something they take to help the sperm and they would have to change their diet and alcohol consumption but yeah dont know what else can really be done. I know they would look at IVF but you said that's not on the table for you.
I think that since you have had one child with your hubby that the chances are nothing is wrong with him, you may just be one of those unlucky couples that take longer conceive as didnt you say it took a year with your little girl?

Ooooh i have heard the easy@home thermometer is really nice. It has Bluetooth so syncs to your app super quick and has a light so you can read the temp in the dark. I have the basic femometer branded one so it doesn't sync i have to log it manually and it doesn't have a light which sucks lol!
But yeah think I am also going to use the vag temping next cycle because I can see the external factors are definitely effecting my temps.

@Kaybobx is it this thermometer you will get?

So much to catch up on this thread

@candycrush2298 omg I can see a very very faint line, I’ve never had that with an easy@home test. I hope this is your month😁 yaaaa for April baby.

Kaybobx · 03/08/2020 09:25

@candycrush2298 oh god I'm super confused!!!!! So yesterday i got my peak and LH on the app was 111. I've just done another opk its got even brighter red and is LH 200 on the app so now my ov day has changed to tomorrow!! Wahttttt
How many peaks can a girl have?!

Haha ok we shall go with the real life stories. When will you be 9DPO?

Yeah that's the thermometer I'll use. Im just using my daughters at the minute from boots lol.

@Boc86 yay!!! Get to it girl.

candycrush2298 · 03/08/2020 09:26

@Boc86 whoohoo for peak day!!! Are those the femometer opks? They look cute lol I love how girly everything looks with femometer lol!! Thats why I bought their 6days early pg tests hahahah.

@Elakiya I mean I hope its our month lol and yasss for an April baby I am all for it hahaha. This mornings test doesn't have that its stark white so definitely confirms that is just and indent. Will test again tonight and see if we see anything. Are you close to peaking yet???

@snapple21 how's it going you close to peak yet?

OP posts:
candycrush2298 · 03/08/2020 09:29

@Kaybobx whaaaat show me the strip??? I wanna see this blazing positive thats amazing girl!!! Do you have any ovulation pain??? Are you still having ewcm? I know you can't really tell with all the bd'ng lol!!

Ooooh thats a nice thermometer gonna be in love lol!!

According to opks which is what I am following tomorrow is 9dpo.

OP posts:
Elakiya · 03/08/2020 09:35

@Kaybobx it should go away in 72 hours anything over that is a bit strange. So you’ve had 2 days of peaks? So one more day and after that I have no idea why lol! Also you take the first day of the peak as ovulation day I think (from what I found last month).

Kaybobx · 03/08/2020 09:38

@candycrush2298 this is stressing me out!! Ugh i don't want to BD again tonight as I'm back from work really late 😩

Attached is my chart and tests.

@Kaybobx don't freak out looking at your temps and today's temp drop I would say today is ovulation. It may just be the last bit of a surge or you held your pee better today then yesterday. Dont freak out I think you're fine. You have got loads of BD in lol!!! And as @Elakiya says the first day of peak is the one you should count so dont worry about it xx

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 03/08/2020 09:54

@candycrush2298 @Elakiya ok I'll go with today as ovulation 🤣 no more BD!!! Ive never had opks this strong before so when i got the high i thought that was my peak as that's how they usually look. I'm not doing anymore now lol.

Boc86 · 03/08/2020 10:04

Yeah fermometer @candycrush2298

@Kaybobx I’d say high yesterday and peak today so ov tomorrow. I don’t know anything about temps though x

candycrush2298 · 03/08/2020 10:10

@Kaybobx lol!! You should just test again to make sure its gone light again but you don't have to. Especially if you think it might go darker instead of lighter 🤣🤣
Yeah i think these easy@home ones are 10miu sensitivity that's we get real readings on them. Those other cheap green strip opks were not as sensitive I think.
