Would you say the 3rd test down was my peak? Seems to be getting lighter top one was today. These were alot brighter irl. The picture of one on its own was the third test down before it dryed. How many more days should I DTD? And when would I class 1dpo? Thanks 😁

@Confused678866 well they should be in bed at this time #badparents 🤣🤦 we are crap at routines And strictness 🤔 that will bite us on the arse as they get older 🙊 yes your are terrible about it always writing yourself off before your even in the tww 🤣 give yourself a chance!! I never had symptoms with mine so ignore all that. I keep reading all these stories of these people that get like bfp at like 7, 8 days like come on 🤦 how the hell?! Like no stories of bfp at like 13/14 days. So I think if I haven't had one by 7 days then I'm out which it totally ridiculous 🙈 xx

@Skl2021 Ahh it's whatever suits you though isn't it.. what works for some doesn't work for others! My little one goes to bed between 7 & 8, takes him a while to drop off but eventually he does. He's a rubbish sleeper though 🤦🏼‍♀️ my friends have completely different routines with theirs but it's just what works isn't it!
Haha I know I need to stop reading things and just ignore it all 🤣🤣
Oh gosh I know, I'm always reading things like that!! But then I do read about people who don't get a BFP until like a few days after AF! What if it happens for us both in the same month 😲 that would be fab xx

Skl2021 · 30/04/2021 22:44

@Confused678866 ahhh we can dream 😍🤞🎉 would be amazing to go through it together!! Although at this point I just want any of us to see the elusive bfp!! Not much to ask is it 😂🙈 I think I would actually shit myself if it happened tho 🤦 then it would become real that I'm doing it again. Feels so long ago like IV forgot everything would be like my first time again 🤣 xx

@Skl2021 Haha yes I know what you mean, I just want one of us to see it too 🤣 so we know it actually does happen 😂😂
Oh same over here! I've put so much thought into 'getting pregnant' and that's where the thought stops 🤣
It's only been a couple of years since I did it all but I know what you mean, you forget everything don't you! Xx

Skl2021 · 01/05/2021 09:31

@Confused678866 soo I went to bed and fell asleep 🤣🤦 oops! That opk better not be darker today 👀 or I'm playing catch up! Will update you when I do it! Hope your feeling bit better today 😊 xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/05/2021 12:25

@Skl2021 Haha oh well, it can't be helped! 😂
Yes let me know how you get on 🤞🏻
I'm feeling a little better thank you! Xx

Skl2021 · 01/05/2021 12:39

@Confused678866 I did one about 11 and its basically the same maybe a smidge darker but my app is saying lighter 🤦 might try again tonight incase I took it too early. U got any more symptoms? How's the hot flushes? X

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/05/2021 12:45

@Skl2021 Yes definitely take another later on - I think of visually you think it looks darker, go by that rather than the app. I don't find the apps very reliable sometimes when it comes to the OPK's!
No nothing else really I don't think? Hot flushes stopped too. Just feel quite normal really apart from the last bit of cold 🤷🏼‍♀️ xx

Skl2021 · 01/05/2021 12:51

@Confused678866 yes it was a bit of a shitty test few indents which didn't help and doesn't seem fully coloured compared to the rest 🙈 just need to use sparingly as I'm running out and if I don't ovulate soon I won't know 🤣 don't know if I can handle that 👀 not knowing when it is. Well isn't that good news then that your back to normal 🤞🤞🙊 positive thinking!! Xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/05/2021 13:06

@Skl2021 Haha oh no 😂 maybe try and order some more if you're not getting your peak yet! Haha yes I get that, if you've been testing part way through the month then you want to know don't you!
Yes trying to keep my mind positive and active 🙈😂 I keep seeing pregnancy announcements and babies being born 😭😂 xx

Skl2021 · 01/05/2021 13:11

@Confused678866 hahah your not helping 🤣 meant to be laid back hardly testing 🤦 now IV started I might not stop!! Haha I do need to get busy tho if I want a chance this month! Good your finally feeling positive you never no until it's over!! It will happen when you least expect it! Oh no it's not nice is it when it's something you really want 😤 feels like everyone is getting pregnant apart from you. Xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/05/2021 13:23

@Skl2021 😂😂 sorry 🙊 just get on Amazon or eBay and get another stash ordered just in case 🤣
Haha well bribe your kids to bed early tonight and then get it on 😂
Yeah that's so true, things do always happen when you least expect them to don't they! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I know, I feel awful though because I know I'm very lucky to have one already but sometimes you just can't shake that feeling of why isn't it happening for me yet?! It will happen for both of us though, and then we'll be looking back at these post and laughing at them! 🤣 xx

Skl2021 · 01/05/2021 17:40

@Confused678866 I have 2 left of the femometer ones I'm using and 3 of the cheap pound shop ones and then I'm done 🤣 I took another one about half an hour ago and it's the same maybe a touch darker. It's hard to tell and I'm becoming obsessed again so I'm taking a step back and will do only one a day later on 🙈 hopefully it comes soon then I can stop! I think sometimes it's worse when u have one as u know your body can do it and wonder why it isn't doing it 🤣 I forgot how crazy ttc is. It's just madness. Xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/05/2021 18:04

@Skl2021 No I think you're right.. it stresses you out doesn't it so maybe just do what you were doing as you'd seemed more chilled out! Just getting DTD when you can and you'll cover it! I know, drives you crazy doesn't it 🤦🏼‍♀️ never been so stressed as I have in recent months! Xx

Skl2021 · 01/05/2021 18:45

@Confused678866 I looked at it again and I think it is darker and my app is sayin it is so maybe were getting somewhere 🤞🙈 I need to get my head together and DTD before it's too late 🤣 tonight is the night!! Then relax and just go with the flow and hope ovulation arrives but not go mad with the tests. I can't wait to be in that tww with you 🙈😎 loving life 😂 I'm now going to stuff my face with Chinese 😋 xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/05/2021 20:31

@Skl2021 Haha! Well, you never know, this could be your month... as it's funny how things work! Previous months of lots of effort etc and ended in AF arriving, this month, very opposite so you just never know!
Haha yeah I'm blissfully unaware of everything right now and enjoying it while I can 😂
Oooh nice 🙂 I've stuffed my face with Indian and now I'm in watching TV in bed 😂 xx

Skl2021 · 01/05/2021 20:36

@Confused678866 I hope it is our month 🤞🤞not long for you to wait now I'm so excited for you!! Im getting bored of this game now 😂🙈 oh my your living the life! in bed at this time on a Saturday night soo rock and roll 😂🎉

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 01/05/2021 20:42

@Skl2021 I really hope so too 🤞🏻
Me too, it's really draining isn't it when you want something so bad!
Haha I know 🤣 my little one had me up all last night so I'm struggling to keep my eyes open 🤣 OH loves it as he's got the living room to himself to play his PlayStation 👀 xx

Skl2021 · 02/05/2021 20:21

@Confused678866 hii! How u doing today? Did an opk today. It's darker but not dark enough surely something should be happening 😂🙈 doing my head in. I'm cd 17 today and last month ovulated today so 🤔 IL attach the pictures as my app is shit and still saying high so that's about 6 days of high now. Top one was yesterdays bottom is todays. Xx

Would I take this as ovulation?🤞
OP posts:
Confused678866 · 02/05/2021 20:44

@Skl2021 Hey! Not too bad thanks, still not feeling great and now I'm in bed with a terrible headache 😭 so it's another early night for me I think. How are you?
Oh yeah today's is definitely darker though! Maybe it will happen tomorrow then? Make sure you test tomorrow and I'm sure you'll be getting your peak very soon 🤞🏻 xx

Skl2021 · 02/05/2021 21:22

@Confused678866 maybe this headache and cold are good signs!!! 🤞🤞 Any af feelings yet? U normally call it? I'm feeling ok bit disheartened just like why am I even bothering when it doesn't happen. Then this high reading all the time. Just feel like I can 🤔🤦 I'm sure il snap out of it. It will happen when it wants too. Xx

OP posts:
Skl2021 · 02/05/2021 21:23

Haha that was meant to say just feel like I can't be bothered 🤦🤔 I'm tired hahah xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 03/05/2021 06:50

@Skl2021 Sorry, I fell asleep! 😂
Yeah I've read that people have these as 'symptoms' but I've probably just got a cold 👀
Erm, no AF symptoms as of yet I don't think? Apps are saying today/tomorrow.. I'm on CD24 today so it could still be a couple of days away.
Ahh no I hope you're feeling better about it today? The high readings must be confusing though. Hopefully you get your peak today!🤞🏻🤞🏻 xx

Skl2021 · 03/05/2021 10:55

@Confused678866 haha it's ok I thought u would be asleep by the time I wrote back my phone needed charging 🙈 omg your soooo close 🤞🤞 don't you normally get af feelings? These signs are all so goodi hope this is it!! I dno still feeling a bit meh. It's like why am I putting in so much effort to not get anywhere 🤣 just get me in that tww so I can relax 🤦👀🎉 xx

OP posts:
Confused678866 · 03/05/2021 11:07

@Skl2021 Erm, I usually get stomach and back ache etc but not sure if I've had that really? I've had a bad back the last couple of mornings when I've got out of bed, but not like AF.. more like my mattress needs flipping 😂
Oh and last months cycle was 25 days not 26, I counted wrong 😂 I'm CD24 today. If I get a BFP I'll be surprised.. not because I'm being negative, but I just don't feel pregnant 😂
I know what you mean, I often feel like you do.. just feel like what's the point with the effort when every month is the same... but it's got to happen one month and this month might just be it!! 🤞🏻 xx
