Not added anyone that I don’t have dates for and haven’t added the naughty girls at the back but you know who you are 😉

@Farmer20 sorry about your loss. Good luck testing 😘

Hi I’m also testing this weekend. Have a potentially boozy one so will be testing on Friday where I’ll be 13 DPO. Pretty sure I got my BFPs with my 2 DC at around then. AF due Saturday... obviously I have already tested 🤦🏼‍♀️😳 but BFN so far. Realised my ICs are 2 years past their expiry! They’ve been lurking in the cupboard since my last pregnancy and my son is 7 😂 ordered some new FRERs 🤞

How exciting is this weekend going to be?! I think I could test on Saturday but was hoping to try and hold out until Tuesday when AF is due - will see how I get on with that 😬 I do have one FRER left so will see how mad the symptom spotting drives me. I might be joining you, I think I'll find a BFN more upsetting than my period though 🙈

@SmileyT I am loving the stats, a girl after my own heart!

Sorry about your loss @Farmer20, fingers crossed this is your month!

There's going to be so much POAS action this weekend!! So excited 😁.

I'm still not sure I ovulated on Sunday btw - my temp has gone up but not by much at all. I know this could be a slow increase in progesterone this cycle but I'm equally expecting it to be anovulatory perhaps. Essentially it's gone from 36.22 to 36.43 whereas last cycle it went straight up to 36.60 on 1DPO 🤷‍♀️.

@lt103 I'd look at previous months see what pattern you normally have.

@Ltay2 & @Katao I started tempting this month but think I'm wasting my time. I'm not a great sleeper, once I wake thats me so no pattern to a time for taking it.

Today is CD17
I have no idea where I am regarding dpo
My normal cycle prediction was sat, got peak oh opk sun. App prediction is tomorrow.
My RHR started to rise on sat. So I'm completely lost 🙈
All opks since sun are neg, will test for another few days just to be 100%. Can u get a false peak on opk? Anyway DTD daily or every 2nd day so hopefully we are covered.

Regarding big gaps, theres 8yrs between me and my sis and 12 between me and my brother. Have 2 others close to my age. I would be very close to my sister. But I love the fact if we have another we have 2 helpers. Great company for a baby. But like some of you I'm older and worry will my body cope with it. But I believe whats for you wont pass u.

Going to visit my grandmother today who's not well, dont think there's much time left for her 😭
So wont be getting much sleep here I wouldn't think

Anyway, here's to a bfp weekend. Really routing for you all xx

CD8 for me today and starting on my CB digital OPKS again! Not sure if it's worth it as what happened last cycle but going to give them a whirl as I have a huge box of sticks and the only thing they will help me with really is when to expect my period hopefully and how many days my LP is🤪 going to do ICs too but going to have sex every day or every other day and see what happens. After my shambles of last cycle I think it's helped me not stress out too much about it as I'm fully aware that could happen again🙈

@Juno231 well we had 24 in June so definitely felt like a lot more than the 8 in July but we started off with so many more people in June so changed the %s 🤓 definitely looks like there has been a rise as long as it stays there you'll get a coverline tomorrow 👌🏾

@Katao yeah I've got a scan booked next Friday 🤞

@2alreadywantanother can you set an alarm for earlier than you normally get up? As long as it's within a couple of hours timeframe each day you'll probably still see a pattern. If you got your peak was Sunday then Monday or Tuesday is a good guess for when you ovulated, did you see any rise in your temp this morning? x

@lucyrp so happy you are back in the game, yeah do your CB in the morning and then a couple of cheapies a day if you can be bothered and you should see some pattern and hopefully your body plays ball 🥰

@smileyt no, but I got up to go to the toilet in the hope to go to sleep again but didnt. So I'd been awake a bit and had been to the toilet 😥

So heres this cycle on top,last cycle at the bottom. So FF thinks I ovulated in red line, femometer thinks day 17 🙈 so if I get a BFN on Sat I will be holding onto hope that FF is right 😆 (but I think femometer is correct as Ovulation matches opks).
@Juno231 we have very similar cycles if you had a big spike last time and a small rise this time... is it something to do with nutrition or supplement?

@2alreadywantanother sometimes the more info you have the less you know 😂 @SmileyT oh great, not long to wait. I'm sure it's a case of mixed emotions for you but hopefully time flies until Friday and then you get reassurance x @lucyrp I'm very excited for you! Enjoy fertile week, you deserve it after all the waiting 😉 hopefully between cb and ic opks you will know where you are at.

@lucyrp woohoo to being back in the game!! You enjoy peeing on that CB! 🤞🏻 for a straightforward cycle and a BFP for you! X

Good luck to all those testing this weekend just had a catch up! So exciting how many of you are testing deffo should kick August off with some BFPs! X

@SmileyT I did start temping 3 days ago and then I forgot this morning but not going to beat myself up about it too much otherwise I'll stress about that so just going to try my best to do it🙈 fermometer is telling me ovulation is in 6 days which is inline with last month but I wonder if it will actually happen 😂

@Katao I really am going to enjoy it I'm gagging for some sex we haven't DTD in like 10 days 😂 that's terrible for us!

@Cocoblue22 thank you! I will enjoy my POAS with my CB OPKs! Hopefully they won't lie to me this cycle 😂 I must say I don't think il get as stressed this time as I have my Luna to keep my sane (my kitten) x

@lucyrp you're practically a born again virgin! 🤣

@blodyn91 it’s maybe possible hat the day 18 temp is an anomaly and higher than it should be then the chart might fit with you ovulating a couple of days earlier like the other app says. Guess it’s a wait and see 🤞

@blodyn91 bear in mind to log your OPKs as the standard and not advanced as the latter are for ones that test both estrogen and LH. Temp wise I'm sort of on board with FF I think but agree that it's not clear cut. Our two cycles do look very similar 🙊. I don't think I've changed anything though!

@2alreadywantanother I second what Smileyt said about setting an alarm!

@SmileyT can't believe you have a scan coming up already, how exciting is that!!

Morning ladies!

@SmileyT a scan on Friday, that has come around quickly. I can't wait to hear about it - and right before super Saturday too ❤️

@lucyrp 10 days?? We've never met but I still know that's one heck of a dry spell for you 😂 go shag that Mr Fantastic!!!

I'm now CD41 and 13 or 14DPO, so I'm on knicker watch! AF usually gets me over night, but nothing just yet. Last month, she arrived exactly 14 days after my peak OPK - which is today, so I really hope she's not playing games and arrives by tomorrow morning so I can start again afresh.

@LV1987 ah don’t count yourself out until AF shows, have you tested?
I’ve convinced myself that I’m out beciase I had cramping last night again, I’m 9dpo though so a few more days to wait.
@SmileyT aw so excited for a scan for you!
@LT103 my bbt is still up is that a good or bad thing?

Sorry and @Juno231 my bbt question is to you too!

@LaceyMermaid where in your cycle are you? If it's the LP then it usually stays high until AF gets you x

@Juno231 I’m on 9dpo so that makes sense! That’s all assuming my tracking has been correct as I’m yet to have a period since my coil was removed on 2nd July. But opks said peak on 18th July and had a temp spike on 20th July so I think that does tie in with ovulating?

@mumof23188 it was thank you! My new nephew will be here next month and I can't wait for newborn cuddles! No awkward questions either although my brother in law asked if I was drinking or not, I said yes I am, give me that beer 😂
@SmileyT morning lovely, good luck for next Friday! That's exciting 😁
@LV1987 good luck my dear. AF got me super early this month! My cycles are still a bit shot after taking agnus castus previously for two cycles.
@LaceyMermaid that's the average day for implantation so could explain the cramps! Will you wait for AF or test early?

I'm cd3 today and still quite heavy and in pain, it's unlike me so hope this is just an odd cycle and I'll go bk to normal next month. Docs are calling me this afternoon and I'll ask for bloods and for hubs to get a SA.

@notyetamumbuttrying ah that’s rubbish for you hope AF leaves quickly too and you get bloods done at the drs soon!
Ok that sounds like it might not be AF then but who knows! It’s all so confusing isn’t it, could be early pregnancy or could be AF! I’m going to try to hold out to test I think I’m a bit scared of a negative! Luckily I only have Femometer IC at home and I don’t think they’re are early detection tests so I can’t test right now. I might cave though it seems so long until the weekend!

Hi everyone, another day and another faint line for me..... waiting for my different tests to arrive so I can try those and see what I get before I speak to the doctor.
Good luck for anyone testing today 🤞

@LaceyMermaid I tested on Sat and it was a BFN (boo). Cramping at 9dpo could be positive for you! 🤞

@notyetamumbuttrying thank you lovey 😘 I'm ready to just get on with the next cycle now! I always find the wait for FW the worst bit as my cycles are so loooooooong!

@notyetamumbuttrying aw lovely 😍 I bet you can’t wait. That’s great there were no awkward questions, there’s nothing worse than those. 😂😂 yes I’m on it!! Love that! That’s great you are going to get the ball rolling with the doctors. I hope AF eases up for you soon. It’s horrible when it’s painful!!

Do I just test with OPKs once per day until it gets strong? Does the Premom tell you when it’s a peak OPK? Sorry for all the questions!
