@beckyBP same on the ic so I ordered some clear blue and although not fertile window it did show a second line

beckyBP · 06/08/2020 18:14

@Emmie12345 I might get some then. I'm panicking if I ovulate now 😱😅

Emmie12345 · 06/08/2020 18:18

Yeah I was panicking too so ordered on amazon ! I mean - I might well not be due to age anyway eeek

I think prob we are just later ? What’s your cycle length usually?

LT103 · 06/08/2020 18:31

@beckyBP just keep testing. You might ovulate later than you think!!

@Mrschips07 you’re not out until af. Some people don’t test positive until after af was due

LT103 · 06/08/2020 18:34

I’m trying some different stuff. I’m drinking pomegranate juice from now and I’m going to drink grapefruit juice the week before ovulation. Then I have pineapple core blitzed up and frozen into ice cubes/ice lollies to have for the 5 days post ovulation and I’m going to have 3 Brazil nuts a day for the whole 2ww! Hahaha. Worth a shot

butterfly5291 · 06/08/2020 18:43

@LT103 whats the benefits behind pomegranate and grapefruit? I hate grapefruit though.
Do you have to pine a whole pineapple to get the core? I'm being really dumb but isn't the core really hard?

beckyBP · 06/08/2020 19:12

@Emmie12345 normally 27 days.

@LT103 definitely will. If I do ovulate late than thought I'd of had no chance last month 😂🙈

butterfly5291 · 06/08/2020 19:33

Woohoo AF has turned up! Bring on the next cycle!

LT103 · 06/08/2020 20:02

@butterfly5291 pomegranate is good for fertility and building up the womb lining I think. grapefruit juice is good for ewcm. The pineapple core isn’t far off the normal pineapple consistency. I blitzed it up with some normal pineapple and a bit of orange juice and made it into ice cubes so it would keep.
Probably none will help but fun to try

amc2018 · 06/08/2020 20:05

Advice needed please help ... I'm confused my period is between 7-10 days late I have take 2 tests and they are negative... my periods every month and between 28days and 31 days ... what could it be ??

butterfly5291 · 06/08/2020 20:40

@LT103 I might give the pineapple a go...I do like it.
I'm so pleased to be starting a fresh cycle!
And more chance of me fitting into my wedding dress in December now!

Mrschips07 · 06/08/2020 22:58

I've just had a thought. With my test today I saved my FMU from 7am this morning, I didn't do the test until 4.30pm... that's a long time. I kept the wee in a pot on my bathroom shelf. No lid or anything. I'm probably clutching at straws but wonder.

Mrschips07 · 07/08/2020 13:29

either 15 or 11dpo today, AF due tomorrow. BFN on a clearblue early for me today (all they had in my asda!) I'm not feeling hopeful but my boobs are still SO sore, and I haven't had any sign AF is coming yet, so we'll see.

How are we all doing?

OP posts:
LT103 · 07/08/2020 15:30

Sorry to hear about the bfn @Mrschips07

beckyBP · 07/08/2020 16:39

Not out until AF comes @Mrschips07

I've been super confused by OPKs this week (first week using) but I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere with them. Turns out.. I don't ovulate when I thought I did!

Mrschips07 · 07/08/2020 18:45

Thanks guys! Trying to cool it a bit, whatever happens, happens!

LT103 · 07/08/2020 18:59

@Mrschips07 I always get to that stage. I test 3 or 4 days but I always get to the point I stop and choose to just see what happens. Thankfully my cycle has been fairly regular so I never have long to wait. I’m really hoping this cycle is the one!!

butterfly5291 · 07/08/2020 19:08

@Mrschips07 fingers crossed AF doesn't show tomorrow. Are you normally very regular?

Mrschips07 · 07/08/2020 19:25

@butterfly5291 no 😂 all over the place usually. AF was 6 days early last month, I've also had months with no AF randomly 🤷‍♀️ I get cysts on my ovaries tho.

@LT103 yeah I just feel like I've gone a bit mental and worked myself up. Where are you in your cycle now?

Hi everyone, hoping that I can join. We are ttc our DC2 (have a dd aged 2) and I have been symptom spotting everything (this may be a huge over reaction!) So I think I am about 9 dpo but it's hard to tell for me. Today I felt some tingling pains (but not that bad) in my abdomen and a bloating feeling. Period is in 7 days and I am going to try so hard not to test early but it's so tempting...

Emmie12345 · 07/08/2020 21:19

Ooh I got a smiley today! My first ! @

beckyBP · 07/08/2020 22:51

@Emmie12345 we are so in sync! I got my first high LH today! 😂

beckyBP · 07/08/2020 22:55

@Emmie12345 meant to attach this.. after my panicking it was nice to see.

@beckyBP
It look like u tested too late, looks like you may have been ovulation in the 1st/2nd.
