Hi ladies sorry I haven't caught up yet but I just thought I would give some hope to everyone! My bestie who's now 28 weeks pregnant told me that she got negative tests all the way up until 23 DPO! Then the clear blue digital told her she was 2-3 weeks 🤷🏼‍♀️ something to not for us POAS addicts 🤣 xxx

@Klprr93 sending lots of good vibes and luck 🤞

@positivitytree2020 wow yayyy!! Just shows you how the peak can come out of nowhere and why it makes no sense when you hear testing once a day is enough.
Good that you DTD tonight before the high id say, that's the way round you want it but keep testing and if you can do it again tomorrow then it's a bonus 🙌

@positivitytree2020 great news!! If you can DTD in the morning it would be great, but not the end of the world if you wait until the evening!! Keep testing to see what is going on as well. If you ovulate today or tomorrow that is a fab CD for ovulation!

Omg you guys!! I’ve had such a vivid dream last night that I’d just had a baby girl and me and my OH were in it and all our friends and family who live local and were pushing her around town etc and it felt so real even down to changing nappies in it too!! Maybe it’s a sign at 2dpo 🤣 I woke up this morning disappointed as she wasn’t real

@positivitytree2020 yay so happy for you! Get dancing 💃🏼 ✨ 👶 and if you’re worried about it not all going in you I read a study about the male during ttc and around 33million sperm are released when they cum so that helped put me at rest thinking if enough got in there 😅

@DrS44 there’s hope for us POAS addicts then 🤣

@positivitytree2020 wahoooo get BD 💃🏼

Morning! 👋🏼 Did a cheapie test this morning since I can’t use my CB one anymore now that I’ve gotten my peak on it, seems to have improved even since last night! 😊 was thinking it might shoot back down this morning!

We tried to BD but didn’t work out! DH woke up too late, and then it was taking to long to do it and we had to run out the door for babysitting so he just gave up! 😒 pretended I was okay with it, but I’m RAGING inside! 😂 also wasted my proceive lube, that stuff is expensive! 😅
Guess we’ll try again this evening when we’ve more time! 🤷🏼‍♀️ Maybe this month just isn’t meant to be!

@positivitytree2020 aww no how annoying. I hope you're both OK. For what it's worth, DP and I probably only DTD 1-2 days before ovulation. I got the peak OPK and we DTD the same day, but the next day I was staying overnight at my parents. Obvs better to dtd today but if you don't it doesn't mean you're out.

I’ll deffo be ruled out this month I reckon. I’ve been up all night being sick and on the toilet (sorry tmi) so there’s no way i am capable of dtd. Feel like I’ve been hit by a bus 🙁 xx

That’s how my tests are looking aswell. We last managed to dtd in CD 14 and then couldn’t last night or today with me not being well.

@positivitytree2020 feeling so frustrated for you lovely, I did read ovulation happens 12-48 hours after your peak so reckon if you manage to do it tonight or even tomorrow morning you will still be in with a chance!

@jessi60 god that sounds rough! Hope you feel better soon!

Had a bit of ewcm this morning although tests are still low, asked my OH if he wanted to dtd and he said alright but can I take the bins out first. Such enthusiasm 😂

Thanks everyone! 😊 really frustrating but nothing I can do about it anyway, just have to let DH get it together! we’ll try again tonight, have a feeling we’ll both be wrecked after babysitting all day, if it doesn’t work out I am done with this cycle! 😂

Good to know @GreenApplesYo that you were successful and didn’t do it every single day! 😊 Hoping less is more! 😂🤞🏼

Also I noticed EWCM last night just once when I went to the toilet and now it’s completely gone. Strange🤨 x

Hi my names Samantha and I POAS at only 2dpo today 🤫😬 don’t know why I did it but I just couldn’t resist at least it was only a IC so didn’t waste a Clear blue or first response. This is why I’m refusing to buy more expensive ones until day AF is due 😂

@jessi60 mine has been pretty intermittent, little bits here and there this month so hard to know what's going on really. I've been tracking it on the apps anyway.

@Dex1521 no judgement here, you're in the right place 😂

Hello! CD13 over here and I POAS this morning and was very surprised when it came back as High 🧐 Attatched a picture. The line wasn't that dark so I took another picture and it was even higher. Odd. We dtd soon afterwards just in case, but I just think its a blip. I'll do another test at 4.30pm. I normally ovulate around cd17. Ahhh well, if its about to happen, at least I've got it covered!! 🤣

@PowerOfFlowers that is very strange, looking at the picture it doesn’t seem very dark! But maybe the app is seeing & picking up something that we’re not? 😊 have you taken another one yet? 😊

I’m just finishing babysitting now so took another test there, thinking it would have dropped by now, but it seems to have risen even more! 😊 has made me slightly more hopeful that I still have time left to DTD! 😅 gonna leave it a while coz we’re both wrecked, might chance it before bed!
Everyone say a prayer for me that I get to BD properly and DH provides the goods!! 😂😂🤞🏼🤞🏼 Even if I get one more shot this cycle I’ll be happy!!

@positivitytree2020 there's no arguing with that positive!!! Eeek sending all my positive thoughts for BD this evening!!

@jessi60 that seems so strange! Was the test actually darker in person and premom just scanned it funny?

Sorry just realised I tagged jessi60 instead of @PowerOfFlowers in that last post soz

@positivitytree2020 Oo good luck with the BD!! Sending good vibes for you and the hubby 😎

I thought I’d have a cider but drank about half and thought I was going to be sick 🤢 banging head ache too which has gone now since drinking a pint of water so strange as after all I could think about was the prawn cocktail Pringles so grabbed a handful 🤣 I’m having so many PG symptoms but I think every little thing I feel I’m thinking it’s PG But I’m only 2dpo so think I’m going mad 😂 really need to calm down lol

@Dex1521 you never know! I really liked reading that thread that @GreenApplesYo shared the link to about whether people 'knew' they were pregnant before testing. fingers crossed for you!!

Perhaps tmi but I've had really sore nipples today, thought I'd do another OPK just now especially as the line started to darken earlier on.. and hurrah!! 🎉🎉

Hello! @positivitytree2020 I tested at 4.30pm and it was 0.23. I honestly think it was a blip. Its much too early for me and the line was very light. But we had a nice time dtd so all is good 😄 Will keep dtd though as I'm leading up to ovulation.
No worries @Bells20 the test was very light which is why I'm surprised it was so high! Ahh well.
Hope everyone else is ok! Sympathies to you @Dex1521- in the tww you look at ALL the symptoms!!

Gals I feel horrendous. - 6 almost 7 DPO me and OH shared a bottle of Prosecco and one gin each and honestly I feel so sick 😷😅 I mean I enjoyed it and couldn't get enough but now I feel horrendous and exhausted and gassy 🤣 there could be other reasons of course but never happens to me really! Great to see news of ovulation on the thread tonight 🙌🏼👏🏻 xxxx

@PowerOfFlowers Well knowing what is normal for you is good! 😊 maybe it was a blip so as you said! Haha exactly no harm in DTD anyway and enjoying it! 🙊

We DTD this evening so am feeling very relieved! 😅 I am after getting very uncomfortable pains though in the last hour, on my right hand side down there! Wondering is it ovulation pain? 🤔 feels like a stitch! I’ll do another OPK in the morning and see what it says, I haven’t tested since 5.30pm when it was 1.17! 😊 hopefully it starts to go down tomorrow and I actually ovulate! 🤞🏼

How is everyone else doing?

Still feel horrendous being sick and on the toilet. Haven’t ate in over 48hours and feel totally drained 🤣 who knew I would be singing about this on a TTC thread haha xx

Mornig ladies!!

@drs44 that was exactly what happened to me at 6DPO!! Eeeek!! 🤞🤞🤞 when are you going to test next? Don't forget i had a BFN on a FRER and 9DPO and only got my BFP 12DPO!

@positivitytree2020 that all sounds so positive. My ovulation pain always felt like a stitch. Hopefully you get a temp rise tody. Welcome to your 2WW!! Yay!! Let us know how the temp looks today 🤞🤞

@PowerOfFlowers any temp movements? Great that you're seeing stuff happen though and you're body is doing something!

@bells20 that line is looking so strong! Test again this morning. It might be your peaked in the night though and missed it, as mine peak happened within a few hours and was gone. Hopefully you managed to DTD? If not and you can today would still be fine!

@dex1521 fingers crossed!! I reckon in about 10 days you'll get accurate reading on a test, anything before then I wouldnt believe

@jessi60 how you feeling today??

@GreenApplesYo how you doing lovely? Any symptoms kicking in properly?

So mine news is i got my 3+ today! Whooop. CB date it from conception not LMP so confirms im at least 5 weeks pregnant which i am, so levels are perfect. I had been saving it as I wanted to make sure I gave myself the chance to build up the levels and am 5+4 today. Such a relief as apparentlya lot of women don't get this until 6/7 weeks or never. I think I will take one final IC on Wednesday when I'm 6 weeks then stop testing and sit on my hands. Might have to tell my husband to hide them!! I still have more tests in my amazon basket 😂🤦‍♀️ I need to just let it go now and wait patiently
