@Misty84 yeah 3/4 it was awful!!! Nothing worse. I'm the same had shadows on a test few days ago but well not far ahead for a positive at that point but not convinced. Only thing I'm thinking is do you actually need to have implantation bleeding or not😳

Misty84 · 05/02/2021 11:30

@apwilso No you don’t need to have it, lots of women don’t get it, and my friend had it with one of her pregnancies but not the others (she’s had 4 kids btw!!😂🤦‍♀️😩)
It’s really rubbish that pms and pregnancy signs are pretty much all the same so we’re in the same quandary every month!! 😡 Does my head in!

apwilso · 05/02/2021 11:37

@Misty84 wish I just knew. Did a test this morning I'm on 10dpo but nothing. don't think this will be my month unfortunately. I know I'm paranoid if I've had no bleeding but that's fine if it's not everyone!

1992EM · 05/02/2021 15:45

@apwilso implantation bleeding only happens to a few people. A lot don't get it. I have finally got my peak . Bang on my prediction. So will dtd as often as we can 🤣 x

@1992EM good luck then. Get busy!x

1992EM · 06/02/2021 08:26

@apwilso thank you 🤣 I definitely will be. Today is expected ovulation day so will dtd tonight and tomorrow night. Not sure if we should also do it Monday too. Will see how we feel x

@1992EM Wahey! I'd love to get ovulation on a weekend. Turns out I'm due on today I didn't even realise I'm on day 30 so expect today or tomorrow but not sure 🤔

1992EM · 06/02/2021 11:34

@apwilso I am actually the opposite as my partner works really long shifts at the weekend but because I am so regular it is always the weekend and we don't always get all the days we need because of this 🙈. I would prefer to be during the week 🤣. Good luck and hope you get you BFP. Have you been testing today ? X

OP posts:
apwilso · 06/02/2021 12:05

@1992EM ahhhh right so that works! I'm very regular but my boyfriend works away most of the week so I struggle hitting the nail on the head all the time! Been testing nothing as of yet so not sure will have to wait. Had some left pain in my pelvic area so not sure if that's just my period. I find it hard to be optimistic about it x

Misty84 · 06/02/2021 12:52

@apwilso I’m also on Day 30; was due yesterday but I was a couple of days late last month so I’m assuming AF will arrive today or tomorrow. Haven’t even bothered to test because I have so little hope!!

1992EM · 06/02/2021 13:00

@apwilso Have everything crossed for you 💕 it is hard when your partner works away. I wish there was a wee switch where you could release the egg at a suitable time 🤣 .

@misty84 best of luck 💕 I totally appreciate that feeling . It can be sole destroying seeing a negative test and after ttc it feels like it will never be positive. I have everything crossed that one day it will be, for all of us x

Misty84 · 06/02/2021 13:08

Thank you @1992EM, lovely words 😘 I truly believe one day we all get that BFP, however long it takes! ✨

apwilso · 06/02/2021 13:41

@Misty84 yeah I remember we were in the same boat last month! I don't feel very period symptomy but I always fool myself.

@1992EM that switch would be perfect!😂

I really hope our positives come soon!

1992EM · 06/02/2021 14:07

@apwilso it would be amazing and an alarm if implantation happened 🤣 . If only.

@misty84 ❤ how many months have you been ttc ? Sorry if you have already said. Hope this is your month x

OP posts:
apwilso · 06/02/2021 14:13

@1992EM I know how ideal. I'm 11dpo today but apparently it's still too early to test should wait till tomorrow so I'm not doing anymore x

Misty84 · 06/02/2021 15:18

@1992EM Been trying for 18 months. So as you can imagine, it’s pretty fcking sht!! I will die of shock if I ever get a BFP!
Doctors haven’t found anything wrong with me, but I’m 37 this year so I’ll be going down the ivf route- it’s just taking so long to get anywhere due to Covid. When you want something so much you don’t give up though, we will get our miracle baby eventually, one way or another!! Xx

1992EM · 06/02/2021 15:33

@apwilso 12 dpo is the most reliable according to Google.

@misty84 so sorry to hear of your struggles. I have everything crossed this is your month. I wish covid would just do one. Impacting so much 😔 x

apwilso · 06/02/2021 16:53

@Misty84 I hope your appointments work out and you can go to them! I'm glad you're staying positive!!!

@1992EM yep I saw that too so tomorrow I will test it AF hasn't graced herself😳

Misty84 · 06/02/2021 18:24

Ah thank you @apwilso and @1992EM for being so nice!🙂
Nearly tested about an hour ago but stopped myself, don’t want to ruin my good mood!! Not officially out yet 🙃 x

apwilso · 06/02/2021 18:57

@Misty84 I was going to say if your not on your not out. Yet I'm sat here thinking I'm out and I've not started either😂 I'm such a hypocrite. Love supporting all you lot and it comes to myself and I'm terrible 😂

Misty84 · 06/02/2021 19:22

@apwilso Yes it’s so weird!!! I’m sat here half thinking I could be pregnant, half thinking any second AF will be here!! So strange to be optimistic and resigned at the same time x

1992EM · 06/02/2021 19:54

@apwilso and @misty84 I have everything crossed for you both.

So I am having a predicament. I had a peak opk yesterday on both CB and the cheapie at both 11am and 5pm . I then did one today at 11am and was still positive but cheapie wasn't as dark and then at 5pm it was negative . What do I record in flo? My peak was definitely yesterday but stronger at 5pm than at 11am . The one at 11am today was similar to yesterday's positive at 11am so think that was the end of the peak if that makes sense . I have ovulation pains just now . I am thinking we should just dtd until Monday anyway to be safe . X

@1992EM if class it from yesterday then because that's the reading you first got and it continued on. This is what threw me off this time with mine

1992EM · 06/02/2021 21:13

@apwilso thank you . I know you aren't supposed to test after a positive but I just wanted to see what it was. We will dtd tomorrow too and hopefully that will cover us this month. Legs in air time 😀

AF is here, I’m out 😞
