I don't think I have everyone tagged so please pop yourselves in xx

@RichmondLady1981 that’s great I will do that. Thank you xx

Hey guys just a quick update for you all, been super busy with two cats ill at the same time.

AF was meant to show up today and didn't. Sooo I'll be testing tomorrow I guess. I don't feel any symptoms anymore so I don't think it's happened. I feel like AF is just taking its time...

I'm confused about what to feel.

@Furbsies really hoping you get your bfp xx

Thanks @RichmondLady1981 for that...very appt for me this month as I usually have 5fertile days on average with CB. But this month I’ve had one flashy & then a static today. Which is mega short for me and I’m like whaaat! It’s all good cos we DTD last night anyway, and going to this morning & tonight too to be safe. But still a bit cheated of my fertile days haha. So I might use OPKs too just to see. I do have an incline that I did ovulate yesterday as I did have a slight tint of pink in my EWCM, which can be a sign of ovulation. Arrr so harsh I might continue with CBD too just out of interest (I have 3 detectors at the moment from all the packs I’ve used so can use one of them that isn’t on static at the moment. I’ve neutralised one already this morning by mistake from using the wrong one anyway). Xxx

So ladies I’ve just done my second cheapie OPK and put it into Premom and got this. Does premom ever show a ‘peak’ or is it just high? I’m so confused ha. Sorry. I’ve only ever used CBD. My CBD today was static which is good woohoo. I know I may have peaked yesterday or last night etc, but just out of curiosity I’m gunna use cheapies now x2 per day just to see what the crack is xxx

@HappyVibes hey lovely I believe premom will show you peak when your levels start to go down again so it knows which result was your highest. If that makes sense I didn't explain it very well 😂

For example if your next result is less than 1.07 it will show today's as peak as it's the highest one before they started going back down xx

Static on CBD Woop! Get DTD tonight and tomorrow that's what I've done both cycles we've conceived! ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks @Bl0ndi3 that does make complete sense, thank you I really appreciate that. Yeah we have x2 ‘in the bag’ now so that’s good - hopefully another tonight & tomorrow & we will be well covered yay! Xxx

Woke up to a message from Natural Cycles saying 'We thought you'd like to know your cycle is very regular and your body works like a clock!'

Not a BFP this month but silver linings and all that :)!

Hope everyone is ok x

@Lollol86 thank you

I have tested this morning and it was the lightest lightest ever positive on the one step one. So I'm not sure whether this is positive or broken or if my mind is playing tricks showing me a positive... Think I'm going to have to wait for a couple more days before testing again although I feel like doing one again almost right now...

My previous test when I had my MC was sooo much darker than this, this seems like its almost invisible...

@Furbsies do you have a picture? Xx

@Lollol86 trying to add picture for the second time. Not sure if it's going to post. But here it is

Feel free to let me know what you guys think. Don't want to be holding on to false hope

@Furbsies I can see something there but not sure if it's an evap line. Do you have any FRER? Xx

@Lollol86 don't have that. Think I'll be going out to get one. Can't be getting my hopes up with this line

@Furbsies you are not out yet and there is something there but I totally understand you not wanting to get your hopes up. I'd go get a FRER and test first thing in the morning xx

@Furbsies I can definitely see a line there...& usually I really struggle with seeing the faint lines but I haven’t even got my glasses on me at the moment & I can see one on there xxx

@Furbsies I can definitely see a line x

I can see a line too @Furbsies. Really hope you manage to get an FRER and a nice second line when you next test 🤞🏼

@Pugprincess gosh you must have been so worried. So happy to hear all is ok xx

@Furbsies I can definitely see a line, hope you get a clearer result tomorrow morning!

@Furbsies I can see see something. 🤞

@HappyVibes PreMom detects the peak once the levels start to drop. I’ll post a picture to show you in a sec. BUT if you suspect it’s too early, keep testing with cheapies alongside the CB and sometimes it can go down then back up again as your body might need an extra kick of LH for ov to properly happen. Once it looked like I’d peaked, but then mine went light and then darker again! It happens a lot apparently. Always good to keep testing a few days after your suspected peak to ensure LH doesn’t increase again.

Just be careful with using a new CB Wand thingy Half way through. You have start using the same device from just after your period as it takes ‘a baseline’ then waits to detect a rise in first oestrogen (flashing) and then LH (static). If you use one from the time you’ve peaked it won’t work properly. As you have no low baseline. Does that make sense? The best bet is to use cheap OPKs alongside the CB to see if they are saying the same thing.

Ps I’ve never heard of pink mucus at time of ovulation!!?? Is that a thing?

Thank you @Lollol86 have gotten it and will be testing again tomorrow morning
@HappyVibes @2020wish @MichT4 @Mrs K21
Thank you all so much for offering hope, just hoping this turns into my BFP this month x

@RichmondLady1981 complete sense lovely, thank you so much. I’m gunna stick with the cheapies for the next week give them hat I’ve already had my static on CB. Tbf because of the slight tint of pink, I do think my static is right, & I’ve just had a random cycle. I’m fine with it tbf as we’ve DTD twice so far & hoping for another tonight & tomorrow if all goes well. And hopefully it’s a sign of my cycles reducing slowly back to its normal pre MC length.

Yeah babe a slight tint of pink can occur around ovulation time from the release of the egg from the ovary, and a bit of blood mixing with discharge. I don’t usually have it, but I feel like my body is just ever changing at the moment & teaching me so much more than I ever blooming knew ha.

Where are you upto at the moment lovely? I’ve been on here so intermittently lately. Xxxx

Xxxx

Ooh @Furbsies I shall be waiting in anticipation for tomorrow eeek xxx

@HappyVibes so am I. Learning so much from you lovely ladies.

I’m on boring CD3 as AF turned up sat just in time for the party. The good news is I can have a week of no peelings on sticks or worrying too much about it taking over. Will still temp but that’s all. Have a longish follicular phase and don’t usually ovulate till about day 19 so a while to go until FW. Here we go again! Good luck and everything crossed for you this cycle. 😁. (How long is your cycle approx?)

Mine seems to be adjusting to about 30/31. Used to be 28. X

@RichmondLady1981 That’s literally exactly what I’m like at the moment post MC with a long FP! Peak on CD21 last month, but CD17 this month. On average atm I’m 34 days cycles. So hopefully going back towards my 28/29days cycles now.

Oh that’s how I felt early on in my cycle this month too. I don’t know what it is but my gosh this cycle has felt SOOOO much more relaxing and healthier in terms of it not taking over our lives. I don’t know how or why but we’ve not let it take over & we both feel so much better for it. Enjoy all your fave things that you can’t or don’t do in FW/TWW & enjoy being you girllll! Xxx
