What fertility apps do everyone use? I've got Femometer and Flo, and I'm kind of using both.

Does anyone pay for the premium subscription to any and do you think it's worth it or are the free versions plenty enough?

kizzy97 · 26/12/2021 15:05

Has anyone else had/having a drink over the festive period? I am and now second guessing it 😅 (bit late now and can't change it)

jazmine38 · 26/12/2021 15:18

Yep defo having drinks! Fertile week starts on Tuesday. Trying to hold DH off until then🤣

I used to use ovia which is pretty accurate. Premom is good and you can log both BBT and opks on. So that was my app of choice the last 12 months. No idea when my next period is due or fertile week might be post losing DD1, so am eating and proseccoing my way through the festive period!

Hoping everyone had a lovely Christmas and boxing day.

Joining! I had a BFN at 12DPO. I'm not holding out hope, AF due Wednesday. Marking my place for the next cycle. I should ovulate around 11 January

[quote Tor88]**@muddypuddlejumping* @kizzy97* thanks so much that's super helpful!! My experience this month is at least reassuring me that it probably wasn't phantom symptoms last month (my theory is I had a failed implantation last time because I had implantation cramps followed by 2 days of nausea and AF was 3 days late). So far nothing this time, but won't count my self out just yet!![/quote]
My first pregnancy I had no cramps or bleeding. It was my first time trying and I was exhausted from 11DPO. Only clue, I had a faint positive on a FRER at 12DPO. This month I've had all of the signs since 6DPO and I'm now convinced it's a failed implantation. I keep testing negative and am just waiting for AF to show.

jazmine38 · 26/12/2021 16:11

@jadew88 I use Premom. I really like it but can't be annoyed with the bbt though I did get the thermometer. I installed flo last month but can't be annoyed with the constant questions..

jadew88 · 26/12/2021 16:27

Thanks @HeyFloof and @jazmine38 - I've downloaded Premom as I'd never heard of that before! I'm now using Femometer, Flo and Premom to get an overview across all 3.

oldermam · 26/12/2021 16:38

@kizzy97 thank you! Fingers crossed for you too! We might get another ovulation in before OH is back at sea. If that doesn't take then it'll be three months until we can try again x

Dreamer30 · 26/12/2021 16:52

Hopping on ladies 😊 OD today, first month ttc after mc in May and eptopic 6 weeks later in June.
Excited to be trying again 😁 hope everyone had a lovely Xmas! Now onto more important things eh? Lol

SkaterChick · 26/12/2021 17:56

@HeyFloof what is the highest number it's given you for a positive opk? I've just had what I expect to be my peak test (line is almost as dark as test line and that's the strongest I've ever gotten, Inc the month I fell preg before my mc)

As mentioned above ive excitedly got what I'm sure is my peak opk today, bad ewcm yest and today. I'm cd18 today so that's later than usual.
Had a quickie.yest but gonna try and DTD again today as I'm feeling tons better from this cold! So I guess that puts my test date approx 6th Jan, can.aomeone add me to the list please ☺️☺️

jazmine38 · 26/12/2021 19:42

My highest was 1.95 x

SkaterChick · 26/12/2021 19:59

@jazmine38 was that on premom?

jazmine38 · 26/12/2021 20:04

Yeo x do you have that app? @SkaterChick

SkaterChick · 26/12/2021 20:07

@jazmine38 I just checked and I thought I did but it wouldn't install on my phone so I'm actually using easy@home! My mistake haha

Quite a few of us on the 6th 😃

DancinOnTheCeiling · 26/12/2021 22:19

@lottieb92 I hadn’t realised you became sick, what a shame. Glad you’re feeling positive about a fresh start 😘.

@Nico89 I haven’t had the experience of ‘empty’ ejaculation but I have noticed a HUGE difference in the amount this cycle. As the days went on there was less and less.. don’t know if that’s helpful at all but thought I’d mention it

DancinOnTheCeiling · 26/12/2021 22:22

@Tor88 with dd I experienced no symptoms whatsoever (other than late period). 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for you 😃x

DancinOnTheCeiling · 26/12/2021 22:27

@PoleFairy You’re allowed to feel both happy about having a good life and jealous about others’ pregnancies. Be gentle with yourself, you can’t help how you feel 😍😍. X

RosyappleA · 26/12/2021 22:43

@ttcbabya you sound like me, had a whole bottle of my strongest wine to myself last night. Had to be done. Lets hope this next year is a positive one for all of us ❤️. It is really tough but this forum is helpful, you’re not alone.

@Nico89 with both my pregnancies i only started to get symptoms after the time around which my period would be due and that would be slight spotting which never turned into a full blown period. After that symptoms like nausea and sore boobs followed and i knew something was very different. In fact i thought i had something terrible i felt so ill. Now every time a real period comes along i keep hoping the same thing is happening.
