@Pugprincess your welcome defo saves you wasting a test! I think after the 48 hours you can use them to test again but I don't really know how they work as I've never done that myself as soon as I got my static on them I didn't test again. Xx

VP91x · 27/07/2020 06:04

@Pugprincess yeah don't waste another stick like @HE88 said, the reader will just stay on static for 48hrs then it resets itself so if you done another test 48hrs later it will just got back to blank circle again xx

How is everyone this morning x

Morning @VP91x
All good here, temp super low this morning so hoping for a nice peak soon. Although with those other high ones it'll be tricky to see a trend if it does 🙄 oh well, will all be clear as mud as always I'm sure 😂
Leaving for work soon. How are you? What time is your appointment? xx

Pugprincess · 27/07/2020 06:28

Thank you both 🙂 we tried to dtd this morn but he couldn’t do it bless him. Think I’ve emptied the supplies now 😩🙈 we got one in last night while on peak though and could try later after work if he can. Got lots in on the previous high fertility days too so fingers crossed we have done enough 🤞🏻

MichT4 · 27/07/2020 06:29

@Pugprincess hooray for your static! Amazing news. You've definitely got enough DTD in too! Fingers crossed for you

Pugprincess · 27/07/2020 06:29

@VP91x oh yes good luck with your app today 🙂

Pugprincess · 27/07/2020 06:30

Thanks @MichT4 hope your peak comes soon. Xx

Pugprincess · 27/07/2020 06:31

@MichT4 well I think it has so more then temp rise thing lol

VP91x · 27/07/2020 06:32

@MichT4 ooh could be your ovulation dip today? 🤞 Yeah, FF/Fem might not register it for days but you'll be able to see it hopefully!! I'm okay, its a telephone consult at some point before 12 they said, so will have to keep my phone on loud. Xx

OP posts:
VP91x · 27/07/2020 06:33

@Pugprincess you'll definitely be more than covered even if you don't DTD anymore 🥰, thank you xx

OP posts:
MichT4 · 27/07/2020 07:35

@VP91x yeah I was hoping that it might be, will see in the next few days 🤞🏼
Hopefully they'll call nice and early as you'd have probably been one of the first on the list. Any other plans on this wet rainy day?

@Pugprincess you are definitely more than covered so don't worry if you don't get another one in

xx

VP91x · 27/07/2020 07:39

@MichT4 yeah I hope your temps don't mess you around, did your Ava work last night?

I need to take my dad to his hospital appointment this morning, Bella has woken up with the beginnings of a cold so going to try and nip it in the bud!

@SmileyT hope you are okay? Xx

OP posts:
MichT4 · 27/07/2020 07:46

@VP91x yeah it worked yesterday. I think the night before was because I woke in the night for longer than normal, so I think it didn't read 4 hours of straight sleep on either side of waking. Annoying having a missing temperature 😂

Oh bless Bella, I hope she recovers quickly. A chilled movie day for you both after the morning hospital run. Hope your Dad is ok.

@SmileyT I was thinking about you this morning too xx

VP91x · 27/07/2020 07:55

@MichT4 ooh that's how it works! I think I'm going to temp vaginally this month as it is less prone to fluctuations and movements etc! I was tempted to get an ovusense, but just more money isn't it!

Thank you, just had to convince her to take calpol 😂😂 she doesn't have a fever but hopefully starts to get rid of anything! Xx

OP posts:
MichT4 · 27/07/2020 08:11

@VP91x I never needed convincing to take calpol when I was younger. Maybe because it wasn't sugar free then 😂😂

It is always tempting to buy something else, but try the vaginal temping first and see how you get on. I think any method is subject to fluctuations. The Ava is great for ease, but I think it can be quite sensitive to external factors too. I'm trying to take the approach of an end of cycle trend as you have all said before. When I think of how many fluctuations I worried about last month, and it turned out I was PG - just have to take it all with a pinch of salt.
That said, I'd still much rather a text book chart please - if you are listening temperature!! xx

Lollol86 · 27/07/2020 08:41

@Pugprincess If you got this morning in then you won't bend tonight. You generally ovulate 12-36 hours after you get a static and then I'm sure your egg survives 24 hours, so I'd probably give it a go tomorrow too if you aren't feeling too tired. Better to cover all grounds 😂😂

Lollol86 · 27/07/2020 08:41

@Pugprincess need not bend lol

Lollol86 · 27/07/2020 08:42

@VP91x all good thank you, how are you? Xx

Lollol86 · 27/07/2020 08:48

@Pugprincess the same happens to my dh last month, we had sex too many days in a row and just couldn't produce anymore. We have started SMEP this month so will see how we get on this was way. We were going to start today on day 10 but then dh got carried away Saturday and couldn't wait any longer 😂

Jazper · 27/07/2020 09:41

Morning ladies xx

What a horrible day 😖 I was hoping to go for a picnic on Wednesday. I hope it fairs up by then 🤞🏼 Anyone off work or working from home and have children to occupy in the house? What are you doing? Spam me with ideas 🙏🏼

@MichT4 , I'm rooting for your peak from afar and I hope your temps do what you need to indicate you have ovulated 🤞🏼

@VP91x , you sound much more upbeat now after you have researched and got some brilliant advice from @MichT4 too. Good luck with your telephone appointment this morning.
Did you get your blood results back, or are they coming this week? Sorry if you have an I've missed it.

@Northernsoul90 , how are you getting on?

Good luck with FW @HE88 , I think I recall you were trying to take a step back this cycle like me. I hope it's done you some good. Xx

2020wish · 27/07/2020 09:51

Morning everyone! Good luck to those in FW! And good luck @VP91x for ur phone appointment.

I am here lurking but I have to admit I haven’t been great at reading everything be cause I’ve been feeling so sick and hungover and sometimes can’t face staring at my phone. But I’m still here. Start of a new week today! So sending good vibes for positive outcomes xx

VP91x · 27/07/2020 09:54

@MichT4 haha, she is not a fan at all! It was an absolute struggle 😩 but got it in the end.

Yeah, my temps were pretty stable until post (maybe) ovulation so will just see if I see any difference doing it that way.

@Lollol86 yeah all okay here, not loving this weather though ☔😭 xx

@Jazper I think it is meant to be nice from Wednesday onwards! 🤞 I bought some "paint your own" things from hobbycraft if you have one near you. They were like ceramics and they came with the paints they were on sale for £2.50! But it entertained Bella for about 10 mins 😂 slightly older kids will be for longer I reckon. Cake baking? Slime? Playdoh.. Those are my go tos. Sort the lego into colours 😂😂.

How old are yours again? Hobbycraft also had these houses/castles/etc. That you build for them and they colour in they are pretty big! About £13? Xx

My test results came back and my FSH was 4.9 and my LH 11.7 apparently they are meant to be roughly around the same number, so something up there. Xx

SmileyT · 27/07/2020 09:57

@VP91x @MichT4 hey lovelies, I'm all good thanks just had a bit less phone time yesterday and this morning, stop reading everything but then being too lazy to reply 🙈. I've got an eerily quiet day at work so will probably drag and weather is doing my Monday mood no favours 😂

@VP91x hope the Drs consult goes well and you're able to cover everything off you want with them, was the results from the Drs or the app? and @MichT4 fingers crossed this is an ovulation dip for you although you do seem very calm this month which is good x

Lollol86 · 27/07/2020 10:04

@Jazper we were supposed to be going for a picnic today but will go for a wellie walk instead. I'm working from home with 2 children. To be honest it's really hard trying to entertain them, they have arts and crafts and bits like that but they can't do anything where I need to help as I need to get my work done. They usually play, I allow them an hour or so on the iPad too xx

Lollol86 · 27/07/2020 10:05

@VP91x horrible day isn't it. Good luck with the doctors xx
