@jessi60 I'm totally with you on that! Negative OPKs are the worst. CD12 today for me and 0 on both counts of POAS 😞 no other ovulation signs either so feeling more and more sure I must have somehow ovulated really early, or maybe not at all and my body just had a small go haha.
Is it bad I want to fast forward time to next month after a proper AF so I know where I stand? 🙈

@Klprr93 omg 😱 this is so exciting!! Keep testing. Everything crossed for you. Really scary that that could happen to you and you're only 27. A lot of people would never have tried by that point and have no idea anything was wrong!

positivitytree2020 · 18/11/2020 18:06

@jessi60 I’m with you on that, the last 2 cycles I didn’t bother testing before AF coz I couldn’t be dealing with the disappointment! 😅 then I got AF but it was really light so was half thinking was it implantation bleeding, so took a test! BFN! Not doing them again unless I don’t get AF at all! 😂

@Emmgrem I’m CD12 too, got 0.33 on LH test this afternoon which is slightly better but still saying Low! 🙄 I’ve literally spent since September wishing my life away, wishing it would be ovulation, then wishing the tww would be over, then wishing for next cycle! 😅

jessi60 · 18/11/2020 18:14

@Emmgrem @positivitytree2020 Yeah I’m day 13 with low results. No sign of anything down below either😂 not sure I ovulated the first month off my implant 🤷🏻‍♀️ Got my period 28 days after the withdrawal bleed. Got the clear blue one coming tomorrow that I will try and use first thing. Hoping I might get something from that, even if it’s the flashing smiley X

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 18:15

@Emmgrem did you keep DTD after that peak? Xx

positivitytree2020 · 18/11/2020 18:17

@jessi60 ya I was the same got AF 29 days after my withdrawal bleed! I’ve been using the CB one the last few days and have a flashing smiley, no sign of any major improvements on LH tests! The CB ones are so expensive, wouldn’t be using them every month!

jessi60 · 18/11/2020 18:19

@positivitytree2020 Yeah they are expensive but it’s reassuring you got that result. Because your body is doing that, you are technically in the high fertility zone.. so getting pregnant is possible🤞🏼 X

jessi60 · 18/11/2020 18:24

Also I wish this was like what’s app so it easier to follow, the forums a pain in the arse to reply and keep up with🙁 I guess people want to remain anonymous though X

Lucille3 · 18/11/2020 18:24

Hi everyone, totally new here, hoping I can join in Grin

@DrS44 it seems were similar on cycle length and ovulation, I think I ovulated on Friday/Saturday which was cd28/29, so currently cd33 and 5dpo at best...and all I want to do is POAS...POAS POAS POAS!!!

Have you POAS yet (soooo tempted and trying really hard not to as I know it's a waste!!) helllp!

Dex1521 · 18/11/2020 18:24

I was just wondering when you get your peak OPK what happens with the one after it would it still be high or does it drop back to low straight away?

I got high OPK at 12pm after two hours of waiting and no drinking and did another this afternoon and it was low 😩 I’d had a cup of tea and couldn’t wait after 1 hour of drinking it so hoping that maybe has affected it?

I’m thinking was my high one a false positive but can you get those on OPKs? My wee this morning was quite a dark yellow but this afternoon it was very light nearly clear. I try drink 2L water a day and had about a litre and a 1/2 before the cup of tea too.

Going to do the same tomorrow morning as I did this morning to see if it’s higher/higher than what I got today

I did a first response. My husband said not to get hopes up and we know me egg quality isn't great from Ivf. So I will just keep calm and see what happens

@Lucille3 Hiii 👋🏼
Are your cycles normally that long? The thought has just came to my head that I might not ovulate for another two weeks😧 although my last was only 28 days.
It’s hard waiting but try to wait and longer. You’ll only worry the early you find out🥰 Xx

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 18:28

@Lucille3 Oohh really? When did you come off the pill? I haven't yet but I know I will at the weekend which will be silly 😂 feel like I need to pee on an OPK in the meantime... like methadone for a heroin addict 🙈🤣

jessi60 · 18/11/2020 18:29

@Klprr93 🥳🥳🥳🥳 wahoo! Sending you all the luck in the bloody world Xxxx ❤️

SofiaVergara · 18/11/2020 18:29

@NamechangeTTC

I’ve got two more cab digital but I’m only getting 1-2. I’m 4+5 on LMP and 4 exactly on ovulation date (cd21). Definitely continuing the IC as I had stocked up. I think this wait to get to 5 or 6 weeks is worse than I imagined!!
The digital week indicator goes by date of conception (ovulation), not from your last af. Please don't stress :)
DrS44 · 18/11/2020 18:30

@Dex1521 did you test CD26pm? It does tend to go down relatively quickly hence it's easy to miss! But it does sound like you've diluted it and not held long enough 😂 xx

Klprr93 · 18/11/2020 18:30

I have no idea when I ovulated so not sure how many dpo

Totally agree it's soooo hard to follow 😭

.33 is where my surge started! Keep hope! Test tomorrow am after holding wee and in the afternoon xx

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 18:33

@Klprr93 that sounds sensible! Keeping everything crossed for you 💛

DrS44 · 18/11/2020 18:34

@Dex1521 sorry I meant yesterday so whatever CD that is 😂

Dex1521 · 18/11/2020 18:35

@jessi60 I know what you mean about how hard it is to keep up with messages I’d much prefer something like WhatsApp I don’t care if you know my name/see my picture 🤣 but yeah I know what you mean people want to stay anonymous

@DrS44 I really hope I’ve just diluted it and I’ll have a higher reading tomorrow. Literally not even owned these OPKs a full day yet and i want to go pee on more 😂

jessi60 · 18/11/2020 18:37

@Dex1521 Yeah I’m not bothered either. I mean my name is my username, I’ve already said where I live, how old I am and what I do for a job 😂 easily traceable haha x

Dex1521 · 18/11/2020 18:38

@DrS44 yeah I did test yesterday and it was slightly stronger than the morning test but it still classed as low on the app. They are in the “other” section on the app as they were boots tests I found in a drawer that were still in date

positivitytree2020 · 18/11/2020 18:40

@DrS44 ooh really? That sounds positive so! 🙈 I’m holding out that tomorrow is my day! 🤞🏼🤞🏼 0.33 was the best I got so far it’s normally between 0.15-0.22! 😂

jessi60 · 18/11/2020 18:42

I didn’t even know there was an other section on the app? Just realised I’ve been putting mine in the easy at home category 🥴 I’m sure it doesn’t make too much difference x @Dex1521
