And the lucky winner of thread name bingo is:@SareBear87

๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘

Here we go again, 2 threads deep, numerous cheese boards, several BFPs and more to pick up along the way!

Weโ€™re a group of hormonal, emotional and down right loveable 30somethings TTC #1
Feel free to join us, nothing is TMI and no one here will judge you, we just love and support each other which some giggles along the way!

Our last thread seemed to have some luck so letโ€™s see how lucky this one is ๐Ÿฅฐ

If Iโ€™ve forgotten anyone I apologise but trying to remember everyone at once is hard!

Hereโ€™s the OPK

๐Ÿง™please, fellas impregnate, Iโ€™m here to ovulate ๐Ÿฆฅ
KayL1988 · 06/07/2021 09:38

I find OPKs really frustrating! When is witch ๐Ÿง™โ€โ™€๏ธ due @SkeletonSkins ??

KayL1988 · 06/07/2021 09:42

Also I thought I'd do some science for you all (not sure if anyone is interested) but I've heard that OPKs pick up other hormones but I'd never see any evidence...
So I've just peed on an OPK (and I've been guzzling water all morning and bam) it looks super peak so must be picking up peaks in other hormones.

This thread is hysterical! I was on a course till late so only just checked today but loving the comments haha!!

Welcome @Unfinishednam and @OoFaithoO ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š

Didn't manage to BD last night as I zonked out, sooo tired! Gonna make some time tonight then aim for every other day ish for the next week / 2 weeks if I can haha!

How is everyone else doing? Xxx

SkeletonSkins · 06/07/2021 09:54

@KayL1988 no clue, Iโ€™ve not ovulated yet ๐Ÿ˜‚ so AF is delayed indefinitely until I do ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

hey everyone! I moved over the weekend so have been away from the thread and looool, I've clearly missed a lot! Love the new name!

Im CD6 today so hopefully getting ready for FW next week. Trying out EPO and preseed this month, see if that makes a difference. I also just realised that I have a friend coming to visit right in the peak of FW, so haven't timed that too well. Hopefully our walls are thick :P

HRP1990 · 06/07/2021 10:03

@SkeletonSkins that OPK look pretty high but I think the only way youโ€™ll know is 3 temp rises. Hang in there and keep DTD ๐Ÿคž

@KayL1988 thatโ€™s so interesting!! Iโ€™ve read that pregnancy can cause peak OPKs but Iโ€™ve never seen it for my own eyes! Thanks for conducting the experiment for us lol

KayL1988 · 06/07/2021 10:25

Of course @HRP1990 ๐Ÿงช๐Ÿงฌ love science

PurpleCat88 · 06/07/2021 10:36

This is hilarious and reminded me of โ€˜Sh**gged married annoyedโ€™ episode from last week which is a hilarious podcast by Chris and Rosie Ramsey.

They read out stories from the public (usually anonymously) and one of last weeks stories was exactly this! The couple were trying to conceive and he was going to be away so left some of his โ€˜productโ€™ in ice cube trays and froze them for her (do not do this BTW - if would definitely not work!! ๐Ÿ˜‚). Anyway a few weeks later they had a party and one of their guests helped themselves to a drink and popped in a couple of โ€˜ice cubesโ€™ ๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿคข๐Ÿคฎ They told him and he was the one writing in to the podcast with the story ๐Ÿคฃ

Oops was meant to quote @Peachycream and @80sPadme ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜…

Welcome to the thread @Unfinishednam! Smile

Your chart looks great @HRP1990, your temps are nice and high! Think some peaks are normal and itโ€™s staying well over cover line.

I think I can see a line @Nicn19! Itโ€™s so nerve wracking isnโ€™t it! Hope you get a BFP on your next test!!

@SkeletonSkins Ooh that looks promising! Hope you ovulate today! ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป

@KayL1988 that is really interesting! Iโ€™ve heard about that but didnโ€™t know if it was a myth. Thatโ€™s good to know!

OnTheRoadNow · 06/07/2021 10:42

That is horrific @PurpleCat88!! ๐Ÿคข

Sooo I have some of the Easy@ Home pregnancy test strips. How many DPO do I have to wait before using one? Today Iโ€™m 7dpo.

I always spot for days before my period arrives so if itโ€™s not my month Iโ€™ll know pretty soon!

Mrsspoon3 · 06/07/2021 10:46

So I need you all to tell me Im being ridiculous and you canโ€™t see anything (@Peachycream you can start as you said you never see faint lines!! ๐Ÿ˜‚)
My temp had gone up this morning (have attached my chart) so I got a bit curious and did a test. Iโ€™m still 6 days away from ๐Ÿง™โ€โ™€๏ธ and this is a really cheap not very sensitive at all test (a third less sensitive than a FRER) but Iโ€™m driving myself nuts thinking maybe I can see a very faint line! Iโ€™ve even gone a bit crazy and changed the contrast on an app to try and see if Iโ€™m imagining things! ๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ˜‚ Iโ€™ve attached the original and modified one.
Please tell me Iโ€™m being ridiculous and imagining things so Iโ€™ll stop getting my hopes up too much!!

Mrsspoon3 · 06/07/2021 10:47

The lines look even fainter uploaded on here, so I reckon Iโ€™m definitely imagining it now!

OnTheRoadNow · 06/07/2021 10:48

I can definitely see a line @Mrsspoon3, I didnโ€™t even have to zoom in!!

HRP1990 · 06/07/2021 10:50

I can 100% see that line @Mrsspoon3! You HAVE to go and wee on a FRER!!

I had to stop catching up with the rest of the thread just to reply to this.

(Please read as Janice from friends) oh.my.god! ๐Ÿคข
Can you imagine!?
โ€œHey man, I just used some of your ice cubes and now I have white bits floating in my jack and coke, I think you need to get your water checked!โ€

I think even @Peachycream will be able to see that one ๐Ÿ˜‚

Peachycream · 06/07/2021 10:52

@Mrsspoon3 I actually do see that one so it canโ€™t be that faint!

OP posts:
Mrsspoon3 · 06/07/2021 10:54

Oh my goodness really @OnTheRoadNow and @HRP1990?! Canโ€™t believe even you see it @Peachycream!! Smile I was convinced I was imagining it and seeing what I wanted to see haha. I have had positives twice before in 5 months ttc and theyโ€™ve gone negative (chemicals) so trying not to get my hopes up, but at least starting with a line gives me a much better chance than no line!! I will go and get a better test today! Smile

Peachycream · 06/07/2021 10:58

@Mrsspoon3 Iโ€™m glad I can see it! Congratulations!
Selfishly, I love it when people say they have a faint line and I actually see it.
With some of the ones on here that I see I end up having to zoom in, change the brightness on my phone, squint and I still get nothing! People who see the super squinters must have like x-ray vision or something ๐Ÿ˜‚

On the plus side, we all know that if I can see a line, thereโ€™s definitely one to be seen! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Sparklingwine1 · 06/07/2021 11:00

I can see a line @Mrsspoon3 and your graph looks amazing!
Maybe it's the pre-seed!?
Get a FRER if you can. Keeping everything crossed ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿผ

KayL1988 · 06/07/2021 11:05

Ahhhhh @Mrsspoon3 I can see a line so clearly ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ

Sparklingwine1 · 06/07/2021 11:06

@Mrsspoon3 I'm still learning about the fertility friend graphs. Yours is really interesting to look at. What day do you think you ovulated... CD 24?
