@Mommybear05 I'm so sorry that your gp is being so unhelpful. I'm not sure how things work in the UK, but Is it possible to make an appointment with a fertility specialist? I think you know your body best, and if you think that something isn't right, then it probably isn't. I also got told to throw away my OPKs and just have timed intercourse, I nodded and then came home an made an appointment with another doctor. The fact is that this doctor isn't helping to solve the problem at hand and is just basing her recommendations off of what she's seen before in other patients (that everything will be ok🙄) Please don't feel bad to go and seek help elsewhere. I don't see the point in wasting another 3 months not knowing what's going on. Sending you so much love Xx

@Mommybear05 ahhh hopefully not long then xx

@MichT4 still really faint only 7% 😭

@Rainbowhope11 my obstetrician told me to use OPK, as well as an app and DTD every two days. I think one of the MOST unhelpful things people, including Drs, can suggest is to "relax" because "it will happen" or similar tripe. Well actually it won't happen unless we hit the right time so better figure that out eh? Also I have children already and my husband is home 24/7 wfh so DTD every two days feels impossible sometimes 😂

Ladies, I just got my peak on clearblue, but somehow I can never get a peak on Femometer strips 😭 the middle one is a pregmate opk strip, do you ladies reckon that it's a peak on the pregmate?

@calimommy omg yes!!! Like, exactly how will this baby be created if we relax? 🤣 that's one of the most stupidest pieces of advice ever😂 oh dear, that must be really tricky to do with the kids hanging around! I can't imagine!

@Mommybear05 sorry the thread moves so fast I don't keep up much with it, but I wanted to comment on your spotting.
After my second MC I spotted for weeks and weeks. In total it was about 12 weeks. I was tearing my hair out but it eventually stopped and I was able to conceive quickly.
Then after I stopped feeding DS2 once again I had ongoing spotting problems, but this time I started taking Vitex Agnus Castus. I can't say if it was the cure or a coincidence but my spotting stopped and within the month I was pregnant again. I used it again after that last MC and I think it helped to get my hormones back on track.

I'm sorry if this is wildly unrelated to your problem, I did have a little scroll back but there are so many messages! X

@chloedancer897 I hope so! 🤞🏼🙏🏼

@Mommybear05 So sorry that the doctors have been useless you must be really frustrated 😣. Totally understandable wanting to have some time alone, sending lots of hugs 💖

@Lollol86 Definitely looks like EWCM! I would take that as peak, I think some just don't along with us as much as other strips. Maybe dtd over the next few days if you can to keep covered xx

@Rainbowhope11 I got my peak on CB from FMU and didn't get my peak on an OPK until much later in the day. Try testing again later?

Guys, I am really tempted to buy a puppy. Can someone convince me either way? I need to know if it's too much hassle or it would be lovely? Help!

@Lollol86 strange with the low OPK but it could peak at any time xx

@Northernsoul90 I'll keep DTD and continue with tests and see what happens. CD14 today really hoping it don't keep me waiting too long xx

@MichT4 do it! We also want to get a puppy but will hold off until we have a house as currently living in a flat.
Also, I just took another OPKS (actually two because the first one went into my pee beyond the max line but didn’t make a difference as both strips look the same). Now it says 0.6 and low when in the morning it was 1.85 and peak. The premom app has also now adjusted so that apparently I had my peak yesterday and today. So, my question for you knowledgeable ladies: 1) can it go this quick ie peak at 7.30am and down to low in the afternoon? 2) does the morning pee falsify test results? 3) bear in mind I did not test on OPKS the last couple of days so I don’t know if it was leading up to my peak yesterday and today 4) we DTD yesterday so I guess that’s good if the app is anything to go by. Should I DTD today and tmr as well for good measure? Xxx

@chloedancer897 okay I'll try again later😊 the problem is I've been drinking so much water at work, by the time I come home and test it's too diluted 😂 I'll just dtd all weekend and hope for the best 🤞🏼

Ladies just an update - decided to just grab DH and DTD lol! Make up sex after an argument right?! Lol

@Firevie yes and the best thing is he thinks you have just given in when really you had an agenda 😂😂

@Lollol86 haha exactly that! Thanks for your service DH lol! But now I feel like an idiot as now that we have done it and the app says I’m on my peak I will probably hold off drinking haha! Ah well ice cream for me it is then xx

@Firevie yes but again he will think he has won but you are doing it for another reason 🤣🤣 men don't have a clue that we always have a hidden agenda 🤣🤣

@Rebecca1992 yes this would be my first, I've not been sick in about a week, although just feel hungover all the time 🤢 ahh twins would be great, I didn't even know you got early BFPs with them, that's an interesting fact x

@Hayleylou89 ahh I'm glad you are being looked after, hope everything went well today x

@MichT4 can I just say how impressed I am that you shave yourself legs to train in your own house 👏 perfect weather for your staycation 😎

@Firevie sorry if I've missed this already being said but premom won't log it as a peak until it sees the next test and it's lower so it catches the highest one as your actual peak so because your next test was lower it would change the previous one to peak and yes it can change really quickly (you may have had a peak day before if you didn't test or it was quick), there is no issue with testing with FMU and I'd DTD Friday, Sat, Sun if you're up for it. Personally I didn't give up drinking, so I'd definitely be annoyed if OH said that to me, I hate it if he ever throws it back in my face that I've said I'm going to be 'healthy' 🙈

@Mommybear05 im so sorry you are feeling so low and totally understand your frustration, would you consider going private to get some initial tests to put your mind at ease or have some info to pass back to Drs? X

@Lollol86 I would normally ovulate 3/4 days after I saw it but think everyone is different (the most annoying answer in ttc) x

Sorry just caught up on 3 days so this has probably ended up long, so sweaty on the tube today but thankfully had a wax so at least it was less sweaty downstairs 😂 hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine x

@SmileyT ahhh this makes sense then why the premom app jumped to peak! Ok well looks like I peaked yesterday and today but it’s already gone down this afternoon. I DTD yesterday so in my peak, this afternoon and will do tmr and Sunday also just to have all bases covered. Tbh the drinking comment is still annoying me but given I may be in my TWW period now I may hold off a drink. Its not like I drink a lot or need to drink anyway I just thought it was a lovely summer day so I said I would but currently too hot so drinking grapefruit juice lol but will def have an ice lolly later haha xxx

@Lollol86 just checked my info and u had lots of ewcm on Sunday morning when I had a high fertility flashy face on cb then 12 hours later by evening it changed to peak xx

@SmileyT that gives me an idea of timing. I know everyone is different but hopefully I should ovulate in the next few days

@Pugprincess did you get a flashy face the same day as the cm? Xx

@Lollol86 yes cm in the am with flashy face then static by pm about 12 hours between tests XX

@Lollol86 I had negative opk this early morning ( 10%) until steady smiley from cb at 11:00!
@Rainbowhope11 it looks like we are twinning on ovulation ;)

Should we the same as last month and note when everyone will have periods or will test?
I'm cd 12, ovulation expected cd 13 and period expected on August 15.

I have also been losing track on the forum btw. So forgive me ladies 😘

@HopeForRainbowbaby it just shows how quickly things can change xx
