@positivitytree2020 Mine was 0.38 aswell x

positivitytree2020 · 20/11/2020 09:31

@jessi60 lol we are being taunted by these opks! 😂 hopefully we both get more definitive results over next couple of days! Just hope I didn’t miss it! 🤞🏼

Dex1521 · 20/11/2020 11:23

So far today I feel really bloated which I do get once a month but never really tracked when it was when I was taking the pill and really bad lack of concentration at work which isn’t like me but maybe that’s just because it’s Friday 😂

Bells20 · 20/11/2020 12:32

@Dex1521 i had the same problem last month except I think my poor concentration was because every 5 minutes I'd feel the smallest twinge of nothing and convince myself I was pregnant then fall down a rabbit hole of thinking about it haha

@jessi60 @positivitytree2020 mine is 0.37 so I'm totally with you.

Dex1521 · 20/11/2020 13:07

@Bells20 I just went to Morrisons there and suddenly found myself in the baby clothes section 😂 my OH was searching the whole shop for me lol

Definitely falling into the rabbit hole of imagining having a baby constantly and it doesn’t help having TikTok and watching people videos of having a new born 🤣 just constantly wishing it was me haha

jessi60 · 20/11/2020 13:20

This is mine this afternoon. I’m confused 😂

@jessi60 hmm that is very strange! 😂 maybe your lh tried to surge on CD14 but didn’t fully, so now it’s trying to again? 🙈 I have no idea tho, I can’t even figure my own ones out tbh! 😂
Strange how it called your 0.64 one “high”, but same app has called my 0.62 one as “low” 😅

jessi60 · 20/11/2020 15:31

@positivitytree2020 I have no idea, does anyone else know on here why it’s reading high for me? Doesn’t make sense xx

DrS44 · 20/11/2020 16:11

@jessi60 maybe because it is high? It's not your peak? Same time of the day with most accurate reading maybe tomorrow it'll go up again? Xx

DrS44 · 20/11/2020 16:15

I realise I'm only 5DPO but I keep getting a slight stitch type pain in the right hand side of where I would imagine my ovaries to be 🤷🏼‍♀️

jessi60 · 20/11/2020 16:31

@DrS44 Yeah but it read low for someone else with that reading lol 🤨 x

DrS44 · 20/11/2020 16:40

@jessi60 because it's high for you 🥳 the numbers really don't mean much so don't be stressing about that! Everyone gets different readings, and has different spikes for a range of reasons. What important though is if it's as dark or darker, and of course almost as dark is a great sign too! Have you had any EWCM? xx

jessi60 · 20/11/2020 16:47

@DrS44 Nope no EWCM. I’ve had the worst cramps all day and I’ve been sick 🙁 so i don’t think the cramps are related to ovulation if I’ve been sick, probably got some bug. I feel like crap. Laid in bed feeling sorry for myself😂
There’s no way I can dtd tonight think I’ll spew 🤣 so now worried I’m missing it xx

jessi60 · 20/11/2020 16:49

@positivitytree2020 Found this online ..
How Does Premom Accommodate Lower Levels?

If the highest ratio value (peak) in your previous cycle was below 0.8, then the app will adjust to the following:

Less than 0.5 = Low
Greater than or Equal to 0.5 = High / Peak

Note: Keep Testing Through "Peak"!

In these circumstances, once a ratio reaches 0.5 in the current cycle, the app will be triggered to begin identifying "peak", and will automatically mark the highest ratio value as peak. Keep testing until your levels are done rising and begin to drop again. As you continue to test, the app will continue to adjust and choose the highest ratio valuE that ovulation cycle as your peak for the cycle.

It is possible you still ovulated, even though your highest recorded test levels fall below 0.80 – 0.50. Some women can fall in a lower spectrum of LH metabolite levels. If this is the case, target the days 0.50 or above as your potential ovulation day. The Premom app will automatically select your high / peak even if it falls below 0.80, as long as it is 0.50 or higher.

Evening ladies. So little update from me. Because all my pain was on one side the midwife wanted me to go for an early scan to check it wasn't eptopic. I went along to the EPU today and had my scan. Saw the tiniest little dot! Only one (thank god) and it the right please with a little yolk sac. So can breathe a huge sign of relief! ❤

jessi60 · 20/11/2020 17:02

Also interestingly .. I’ve just rescanned some of tests in and I’ve done them on different angle and not so zoomed in and some of them are reading as 0.73 etc so think it depends how your inputting them!

@AMS19 ah that is lush news. Glad everything is ok Xxx

jessi60 · 20/11/2020 17:06

So even more confusing ... 😂

@AMS19 that's great news! Eeekk! And what fantastic service 🙌🏼

GreenApplesYo · 20/11/2020 17:07

Hey @ams19 ohh amazing! Must be such a relief. What was the epu like? There isn't an EPU here, waa.

I keep getting weird twinges on my left hand side. Nothing too sore, but I think I'll tell the midwife next Wednesday at my booking in if it continues. I did toy with asking the GP about it, but decided I was being paranoid and I'd leave it unless it becomes an actual pain as opposed to an intermittent tweaking/pinching kind of feeling. What was your pain like?

DrS44 · 20/11/2020 17:09

@jessi60 ohhhh god sorry you're not well 💚 sounds so strange! Would you have picked something up at work? Hmmmm ya that's interesting? At least you can take that your body is trying to get there and is doing all the right things. Apparently EWCM can be affected by how much water you're drinking... so if you're drinking little because you're trying to hold it for LH that could be why 🤣 also it's apparently best to check EWCM after a #2 🤷🏼‍♀️👍🏼 xx

Dex1521 · 20/11/2020 17:14

@AMS19 aw that’s brilliant news! So happy for you xx

@jessi60 my peak levels were 0.86 and it T line was as dark as the C line it went from 0.22 (Tuesday) to 0.86 (Wednesday) back down to 0.64, 0.44 (yesterday) and today 0. Hoping that helps you as I’ve never had high levels above 1 before but also never been pregnant yet so 🙈🤷🏻‍♀️

Does anyone know if keeping your uterus warm helps implantation such as hot water bottle on belly/back of warm baths. I’m reading mixed things online some saying do some saying don’t. Currently posting this laid in the bath so I hope the answer is it’s ok 😂 I did make it just warm today and not my usual lava temperature where it turns me a nice shade of pink 😂

jessi60 · 20/11/2020 17:14

@DrS44 God knows. Unless I ate something dodgy. But I only had cereal and some pizza yesterday (not meat or anything) I’ve literally got 0 appetite since coming off contraception. And then I’ve had nothing to eat today. Very odd 🤣
Yeah I’ve barely been drinking anything to be fair. So could be that. I’ve had one hot drink at about 12pm and only on my second drink now, been having too much pain for it. I’ll get drinking now!
Xx

PowerOfFlowers · 20/11/2020 17:25

Oh @AMS19 thats such good news and must be a relief for you! Good they are quick with these things. How are you now, still having the pain?
Cd12 over here, started POAS twice a day now for the next week, and dtd every other day. Full of energy. Nothing else to report 😄

May94 · 20/11/2020 17:27

@AMS19 so glad everything was ok for you! xx

PowerOfFlowers · 20/11/2020 17:28

Sorry to see you're not well @jessi60 It does sound like some sort of a bug. Try and drink as much water as you can to flush it out and plenty of rest.
