Lucky October? 🍀

[Danani]

It seems AF is coming to get me end of this week (Fri), so instead of feeling sorry for myself I’m trying to look forward to October and getting to try again! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Anyone else with me?

🙄 attaching the pic would have been helpful, wouldn’t it. 🤦🏻‍♀️
Please and thank you! X

Yea the actual peak is never too clear but I think CD15 morning looks like your peak, I think the control line on previous one is just lighter that why it seems it's darker. I may be wrong though! I think it's still more accurate than CB as you get a smaller window of when you peaked! I would BD tonight to make sure you're covered, and possibly tomorrow if you can lol

Still a line though @PleaseSendNoodles. Got my fingers crossed for you!! X

You’re not helping @Peauela🤣
That sounds like a LOT. 😂😬🍆

I'm so rubbish at understanding these tests @Danani but I would defo still DTD tonight and maybe even tomorrow too! X

@Peauela thanks 🤞🏻 I’ve been following your progress because I think we’re cycle twins?

@Danani I would agree on day 15 morning! But I’m no expert. Good luck!

Yes, I agree that you peaked this morning, judging by the OPKs @Danani

@Danani hahaha from all the 🍆 talk on here I think Im gonna have to get some myself even though I don't have to 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@PleaseSendNoodles yes! Im 12DPO today! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Is it normal to feel so tired after ovulation? 😴 I'm exhausted

@BoyMum18 is it the ovulation or all the BD’ing? 👀😁
In all seriousness, I think fatigue is a pretty common symptom. Something to do with the hormones I believe. Hope you feel better x

Yes I think so! I get sooo tired around ovulation most months 😩 get some rest!

I can't tell if my opks are getting darker or not argh!!

@Cruz86 show us! Do you use an app that “reads” them and tells you? It’s much easier (still a bit confusing lol) than you trying to figure them out…

Haha 😆

@Cruz86 I use Premom and Femometer for the first time this cycle and have been uploading my strip pics on there, the apps read them and tell you low, high, peak which now that I’m getting the hang of it, is pretty handy!

I know you shouldn't read them after 10 mins but I've just got last nights out of the bin. I'm so sure I haven't had my LH surge yet 😩😩

Thank you @Danani. Downloading Femometer because that's the brand of tests I have!

Yeh, do it! And no, this definitely looks way too faint. What CD were you again?

So the top one was from yesterday which is cd 14 and bottom from today cd15. Do you think the bottom is darker than the top one?

No hun, I’m using the same OPKs, that’s what my peak looked like, it should be at least as dark as the control line. As you can see I went from low to peak in couple of hrs so keep testing, I’d recommend 3 times a day - morning, at lunch time and evening xx

Thank you. It's so annoying that I didn't start using them earlier on in my cycle. I was convinced that I'd already ovulated because of cm and pains etc. But I feel like these lines are getting darker which means I haven't yet! And I'm getting close to the mark in terms of having a short LP argh

Completely second @Mummytobe93 advice! I never realised how quickly you go from low to peak and wouldn’t have known if ai haven’t started using them this cycle! With CB it’s much wider /probably less accurate window. At CD15, I’d expect you to get your peak over the weekend!

I'm officially out... AF has arrived ☹️ guess I'm going to have some wine tonight after all.... best of luck to all and hope I won't meet you in November thread 🎈

If I don't get my peak until over the weekend I think there will only be about 10 days between ovulation and when AF is due. I thought this was good when it comes to conceiving?
