Here we go again girls! 💕 Wishing you all so much baby dust for this cycle! 👶🏼
CD4 for me today, cycle #60000000 at least. 🤦🏼‍♀️ TTC bubs #2 since Jan 2020.
2 miscarriages, umpteen national lockdowns, at least a stone heavier 🙄 Let's do this 💪❤️

@organised5
I know you did i cant believe it!!! Im only 9dpo so would prob have been bfn on an early one too , im gona wait now til 12 dpo xx

Ugh. So I thought AF had come but then didn't go anywhere so I had a little bit of hope that maybe it was just spotting. But then took test this morning and BFN on a CB. But still no bleeding and I am on CD 30 which is now late. So confused and frustrated.

I had spotting on 8/9 DPO so I had a bit of hope and we dtd every day.

@Wowthisisreal it’s so difficult not knowing, that sounds so confusing. I hope you get a clear answer either way soon x

@Wowthisisreal have you tried a frer or another sensitive test- took me ages to get a positive off a blue clear blue x fingers crossed x

@Litttlebird no haven't tried one. Last time I got my positive from CB right away!

Might do that tomorrow if no AF in the morning.

Fed up now, CD 40 and no sign of AF!

Does anyone not get any ewcm but still ovulate? This is my first month ttc (2nd baby) and ive had watery cervical fluid but no ewcm so not sure if im ovulating or not...my cycle is 28 days and so just been trying to dtd betwen cycle day 10 - 16 (currently on CD17) Im going to get opks for next cycle so I know but wondered if you always get the ewcm when ovulating?!

Hi @GreysEmma , yes I get similar! I think that still counts as fertile fluid. As long as it's slippery rather than creamy, I think it's most likely fine. I can't seem to rely on cm to judge ov as don't get much. Last month I don't think I ovulated post-mc and was dry as a bone despite other positive ov signs. This month in contrast, I've had more EWCM than ever 🤷‍♀️. Usually I just have watery cm though. And have managed to get pregs 3 times so know i do ovulate despite not having obvious EWCM x

Good luck all this month. I'm pretty sure it's not the month for us as we've not DTD much in the fertile window. No positive opk and suddenly irregular periods so haven't a clue when I ovulate. Praying for BFPs for all of you though xx

Another BFN with FRER. So now just waiting for AF to arrive so we can go again. Day 31.

For those who know more about this than me... does this mean I ovulated later than I thought? I got EWCM around the time the app said I would be. I said to DH that maybe this means we could OPKs this month because my cycle could be out of whack now and the app won't be accurate after this anomaly and he baulked at the price.

Another BFN here too although i wasnt going to test 🤭 anyway I think the sore boobs might be due to higher surge in hormones because I literally had about 7 days of ewcm which is not normal it was gross actually 🙈.... il keep waiting 🤞🏻xx

@GreysEmma no ewm for me - never had it. just very watery as you said!.

I ordered the opk off eBay super cheap strips a few pound for 30. They showed I ovulated about 3-4 days later than expected which if your just following An app ls expected day and don’t have the capacity to bd every or every other day you could miss the peak.

I’ve also read a lot recently about needing to bd loads and loads. I don’t Think there’s a lot of truth in that. 2-3 days are needed to build men’s sperm levels back up so evry other or evry 2-3 days is recommended- remember those that get in last about 3-4 days too x

I haven't tested this morning, going to wait until Saturday now and pray that AF stays away.

I go off of two different apps and one says that I would be 10 DPO today so going off the faint line on the tests thinking that would be more correct than 13 DPO

@MgW1 it's not over until it's over!!

10 DPO here and becoming very impatient 😂

Have had tender boobs since 4 DPO but over the last 3 days they have become more swollen and feel heavy, I also have some additional blue veins. Have also had cramps on and off for a few days which were more intense during the night last night, I was awake for a while with a headache too. Yesterday I also had some creamy cm. This morning I woke up and I’m so bloated and full of gas, I swear I feel like someone needs to put a pin in me and pop me to give me some relief! Trying not to read into symptoms too much but it’s soooo hard. After a year trying I thought the TWW would become more normal!

AF is due either Mon/Tues, I’ve no tests in the house and am trying hard not to go and buy any! The wait continues.....

Sounds very promising @Twittwoo2020 !!
I’m dreading the TWW, 1DPO today so here we go
again 🤞🏼 Xx

Anyone got any experience of the one-step midstream eBay cheapies? I've got 8 stashed in my cupboard from a few months ago as they came in a pack of 10. I wasn't trying then, just checking as was late. They told the truth (negative) but now I'm hoping for a positive I'm nervous 😂 They seem as sensitive as the FRER ones as 10mlU?

@bubblegeek22 I found them useless! Got a bold bfp at 12dpo on a FRER and it was a squinter at best on the one step but you could hardly see anything. Looked like an evap line. I'm never using them again x

That's good to know @BubsNumber2inTheMaking thanks. Might have to buy some FRERs. Not going to buy them for a bit as it's only O day today!! And I'm know I will use them far too early 😬😬

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking
Iv had a neg this am with FRER at 10dpo but noy fmu it was actually third morning urine!!! Did you get your first positive at 12dpo? You may have had a squinter at 10. I think i need to stop wasting money on testing! Got 1 box plus 1 left so will wait xx

@MgW1 I've always got a v.faint line on a FRER at 10dpo, but by 12dpo it was bold for all 3 pregnancies. On one of the positive times I got a negative at 9dpo so I do always think 10dpo is right on the cusp, and i only ever use fmu as I drink way too much water in the day! 🤦🏼‍♀️
How many DPO are you?xx

Oh sorry - you said! 🤦🏼‍♀️ in which case def not out yet. Try again in a couple of days xx

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking
I feel i am out. Had a funny month with rudulous amount of ewcm and really bad sore boobs , had sore boobs since ovulation so cant be pregnancy related. Il see what happens. Also i stupidly stopped using opks after peak and stopped dtd
(in favour of a wine and a takeaway and then my husband developed a bad cold - he was really sniffly and REALLY annoying so sacked it off 😂) but then had at least another 5 days of ewcm after O so should have kept testing really. Xx

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking
Ridiculous*

@MgW1 it's funny you say that as I've got lots of EWCM this month too after nothing last month! Perhaps it's the body kick-starting ovulation again post mc? Can't say I noticed it after my first mc though..
Well keeping fingers crossed for you. It's still really early xx

Hey gals, just little old me with another question.
Has anyone who uses Ovia ever experienced the app changes your ovulation dates?
I started AF 19th jan and so ovulation dates were around 2nd feb. Now my app has changed to say my ovulation was this week? It can’t be right as I’m due AF in 5 days?!
The app doesn’t really explain why it changed it either.
I didn’t do OPKs this month we just dtd every other day (so we should be covered) but definitely missing the security of a +opk.

Hope you’re all well ❤️
