@km89 like @happyvibes said the pack lets u know. Think the ones I have say start on cd10. I do 2-3 a day. Dont do with fmu.
It so easy to miss it, I'd a peak last wk, litterly that morning was high, midday was peak and evening was low.
@katy34 that's strange. Are ur cycles normally regular. Maybe ur 1 of those that dont show positive for ages. Have u been tracking the or bbt?
@re6ecca hope ur feeling better this evening x

Just lurking on this post! Don't mind me🤪

CakeAndPreggers · 20/10/2020 21:44

Hi everyone. Hope you don't mind me hopping on here.
Had Mmc in sept and we started ttc again straight away. My cycles were always regular before Mmc and was expecting it on 16/17 oct so I'm a few days late by 'normal standards'. I know that cycles can go haywire after Mmc but I had so much ewcm we ttc as if I was ovulating as normal.

Anyways, long story short..... I attach my find from the morning. I can see a line if I squint... can anyone else?!

@CakeAndPreggers I can see something very faint but I did also have a similar result last month and AF arrived a few days later. How many DPO are you? The gist I have had from this thread is that pink dyes are the best and maybe an idea to get FRER? Xx

MinnieMouse4 · 20/10/2020 22:35

Last cycle sorry xx

Katy34 · 20/10/2020 22:52

@HappyVibes @2alreadywantanother my cycles are normally very regular I have noticed a slight increase in bbt, af is 5 days late and I'm on cycle day 31( my cycles normally 26/27 but I use the ovia app to trac my cycles and according to that I am five days late, not had any of my normal af symptoms at all

HappyVibes · 20/10/2020 22:57

@Katy34 that sounds very hopeful. How many cycles post MC are you lovely if you don’t mind me asking? Just that the early cycles post MC can vary in length, even if pre MC they were regular. Xxxx

Katy34 · 20/10/2020 22:57

@Runnergirl1 😂 lol yeah I think I have a collection on every possible pregnancy test!! Been ttc for two years and was starting to loose hope, so the fact my period this late is giving me a bit of hope back, ( the only time I have ever been this late was last year when I got bfp (before 1st mc) trying not to get my hopes up but it's so difficult not to

Katy34 · 20/10/2020 23:01

@HappyVibes my two mc happend last may and July so over a year ago and my cycles have returned to normal thankfully since last November

HappyVibes · 20/10/2020 23:09

Oh that makes everything seem to line up very well and hopeful for you lovely @Katy34
Fingers crossed for you xxxx

re6ecca · 20/10/2020 23:11

@HappyVibes I need some of that username 🤣 I am 12dpo tomorrow and AF due on the 23rd.
Cant wait for her to turn up so I can get on with using OPKs for the first time😅

Katy34 · 20/10/2020 23:25

@HappyVibes 🙏 thank you 😊 trying not to get my hopes up but that is easier said than done lol 😂 xxx

HappyVibes · 21/10/2020 04:11

Ah 12DPO is still quite early and you could potentially have ovulated later than you noted, so you’re not out the game hun. Are you 100% sure re ovulation on your particularly noted date? I know it’s easier said than done but I would try and wait it out a few more days lovely. If no AF by the weekend then try an FRER. It’s so hard being patient in the TWW, I feel you girl! Xxx

HappyVibes · 21/10/2020 04:12

@re6ecca sorry forgot to tag you above 💓

re6ecca · 21/10/2020 10:52

@HappyVibes I am not 100% sure as I didn't have time to buy opks - we literally started trying again on/around O day 🤣 i am planning to wait it out but isn't it just so frustrating!! No AF as yet... boobs still feel OK and that's a sign I always get before AF, also my CM hasn't dried up yet. Wondering if I'm actually going to have my cycle on time or whether I've still got another 2/3 days

2alreadywantanother · 21/10/2020 11:29

@katy34 fingers and toes crossed for u hun.

Any of you track RHR. Or even not track but wear a smart watch?
What did ur RHR do since and during mc.
Mines higher than when I was pregnant and is steadily staying where it is, up, down and back up. Had a few days rise slightly then drip 1 and back up.
But again all higher than b4a nd when I was pregnant. So I'm confused lol
Going by opks and twinges I'm 6dpo
So glad the kids are off next wk so that will distract me a bit.

Hope ur all well x

Bellabubble · 21/10/2020 12:14

@2alreadywantanother I have a fitbit that tracks heart rate, and my rhr has gone up, but I have also had a few days where it has gone done by 1. I read up on it and lots of women found it wasn’t a good indicator in the end as the drop made them think something was wrong, but things were fine and the pregnancy progressed well. I found last time as well that mine started rising after the pregnancy had stopped progressing, this time it started rising earlier but has dipped in week 6, so I don’t really know what to make of it lol!

2alreadywantanother · 21/10/2020 12:23

Yeah I stopped tracking when pregnant ad I read the same. Women stressing when ut dropped at all. But I'm back tracking now.
Attached is last 3 mths. I found out early aug I was pregnant. Had mmc mid sept and surgical management 25th Sept. So tracking the is currently out I think until it returns to normal. I attached my RHR previous to pregnancy too

KM89 · 21/10/2020 16:14

@2alreadywantanother thank you , I've ordered some due tomorrow which will be CD8 for me so in time to start using them.

I thought AF was over but I started spotting again this morning, it was after some intense exercise which also happened to me on Monday hopefully this is some sort of coincidence and stops today as i would like to get back into my fitness ....
I just want to Ovulate and DTD!

I use a fitbit. My RHR went up after pregnancy but not by much, then got even higher after MMC ,during medical management and then surgical management. Its back to around normal now

2alreadywantanother · 21/10/2020 16:35

@km89 how long b4 it came back to normal?

KM89 · 21/10/2020 16:53

@2alreadywantanother around 4/5 weeks after having surgical management it went down to normal for me and has stayed fairly steady since over the last 2 weekish

blackcurrantqueen · 21/10/2020 17:38

Hello
Hoping it is ok to join
I had a MC last week around 5-6 weeks pregnant. Had repeated bloods today and my HCG was 2 so negative.
Really wanting to start TTC ASAP
Have used an OPK today and nothing. Wondering if I should use them daily from now?
I know it can be a bit of a mess in the first cycle post MC but I am so desperate now for that magic sticky bean.
Any words of advice ladies?
Xx

2alreadywantanother · 21/10/2020 17:52

Hey @blackcurrantqueen. How u keeping.
I am doing opks and got a peak 3wks after surgical management. I did them 2-3 times a day.

Katy34 · 21/10/2020 18:04

Hi ladies well that's af now 6 days late and still get bfn!! So very confused right now!!! Going to test again on Saturday if af still now reared her ugly head, just wish I had a answer either way now!! 🙄🥺

Katy34 · 21/10/2020 20:01

ok I admit it I am a certified poas addict!!! Question for you guys I took a cb early detection test, and I initially thought it was negative but when I went back about 6/7 minutes later to put it in the bin I noticed a very faint line, but I'm not sure if it is valid or not because it was out with the time, so I poas ( cheapo Internet one to do a double check😂🙄) and that one came back negative, so should I just assume the very faint line on cb was an evap line?
