Ttc #1 and cycle 1. Anyone else?

[Newbiemg]

Hello

As title says ttc #1, cycle 1, 30 yo. I got my 1st flashing smiley this morning on the CB test.

Thought it would be nice to hear from other ladies in a similar position.

I’m confused what CD this is for me. I have another full thread on this so won’t rewrite it here but if anyone can help me on that thread (title: my first ever flashing smiley please help) I’d be grateful as I’m very confused. This may be CD10 for me or may be CD5

How are your new journeys going?

@Newbiemg I deleted CD8 because it was coming up as 0 but looked the same as CD9 anyway x

@Newbiemg I only have 1 picture this month of when I got my "static" and then the cheapie... which was lighter on the Sunday but got darker on the Monday, not sure if that helps?

Also... I took EPO too this month and I noticed Sat/Sun it was a bit... more shall I say!

@Newbiemg hit send too soon! With CM I haven't had much if I'm honest, just a small amount of the slippery clear stuff

@RMS0209 @SMD16 Thank you both! That’s helpful. It changes quite fast doesn’t it from one day to the next so I think I just need to be more patient lol. Mine atm look abit like your CD11 ones so that’s reassuring

@Newbiemg I also hit send to quick! As I say from speaking on another forum the lady thinks I ovulated on the Monday as Sunday CD14 is quite light

My one from just now is 0.37 low

Poor quality picture sorry, I have downloaded premom for next month so will update them daily x

Send picture of it if you can? And we can try compare to ours x

@RMS0209 so that one is when you got peak CB too? That looks like they’re the same both lines doesn't it so you maybe caught your surge right at the start of it.

I feel better now I think I’m on track I just wasn’t sure what to expect with these line opks really. Thanks

I’ve been using Femometer app because I’m using the Femometer strips but I’ve just downloaded Premom too as it seems more accurate.

@Newbiemg yeah that was 9am Sunday morning so I think it was the beginning of the surge definitely, I wish I had a picture on Mondays one which was far darker

Glad you feel better x

I’ve just downloaded the app so I only have one on there and haven’t put my info in yet lol

Think people use the easy at home strips with premom I will need to see and search and order some, will let you know what I find

@Newbiemg my OPK tests don't usually process in a linear way, they start going darker a few days before but v much up and down until peak. This month I got my first semi dark line on CD12 and then up and down until CD17 when I got my peak. I usually get EWCM around two days before peak up until the day of ovulation

This is mine on Femometer app. The peak is ver clear. I did get another peak the following day in the afternoon but I didn't record it because it would have changed my prediction and I've read online you should just pay attention to the first peak then assume ov the next day. But I was curious haha

Stronger line today 😍 tried the CB digital also but it just didn't work!! So frustrating how much of their stuff is faulty, and it's not cheap!

@CrazyCatLady95 that is a good looking line! Congrats again. So happy for you! How many DPO are you again? X

@RMS0209 thanks so much!!
I am 12/13 dpo today I believe. Defo still doesn't feel real. Still having crazy dreams 😂

@CrazyCatLady95 oooh look how much stronger it is! Congratulations 🥳 shame about the clear blue one!

I'm not feeling too hopeful about this cycle now, only DTD a couple days before ovulation as much OH is still unwell. But I guess you never know!

@SMD16 I'm not feeling too hopeful either, we will have better luck next cycle!

@RMS0209 valentines month next month 😂 but yes fingers crossed for us both

@SMD16 haha that might be our lucky month, I was wanting to give SPEM a try, have you heard of it? I read about it on here and downloaded it for free from Amazon
I've attached a pic for you incase not! Supposedly has a good success rate, worth a try if nothing I suppose... depending on both OH's being well enough

@RMS0209 so reading that, it would suggesting DTD today as well as Ovu was yesterday. It was 100% yesterday to as all the pains have gone now. I got my peak the day before Ovu as well. Definitely worth a shot though x

@SMD16 worth a try if you can!
If not I will try next month hopefully get lucky stressful! Wish it was as simple as it is in movies/soaps haha x

@SMD16 @RMS0209 technically it only takes one time! You get pregnant from only one of the times you DTD so doing it more just increases the chances that you get that one time at the right time lol… so you are still in with a chance. I’ve read lots of threads on here where ladies have been lucky and got their bfp from one hit wonders lol. Good luck to you both!

@CrazyCatLady95 deffo stronger! Congratulations
