Good luck with the move @Dreamingof3 hopefully it's not too tough on you with the nausea etc

AF hasn’t arrived this morning yet… I really don’t want to get my hopes up though and also resisting the urge to test for another day or two as I don’t want to get disappointed! Although if AF comes I’ll only be disappointed then too soooo!

My temperature is steadily climbing with 2 days before AF is due. That has to mean something. I'm not testing again until Wednesday. Argh! I just want to know! 😭

@SarahShorty what day is AF due? I’m soo in two minds like part of me is like ooo I could be and the other part is like no you tested 3 days ago and it was a BFN 🤣

@SarahShorty sounds promising!

@Bananatoast123 I decided I'd rather see a negative test and then be expecting my period than just have it turn up so I tested....and got a positive 😂

@Bananatoast123 Thursday. I'm a spotter, though, so the actual flow likely will be either Friday or Saturday. Looking back on my last chart where I temped, my temperature slipped down about 3 days before and then I began spotting. So I'm feeling hopeful and I've got everything crossed. Fingers, toes, nipples 😂

@SarahShorty and @Bananatoast123 fingers crossed for you both. Sounds promising

@EdinburghGirl1 @Dreamingof3 thank you both xx

@SarahShorty I’m a spotter too and nothing yet this time! I hope you get some positive news soon!

@Dreamingof3 yeah I think you’re right, I keep checking if AF has suddenly come but I’d be better to test and get it out the way! I use Premom and flo… Premom says I’m 2 days late but Flo says it’s due today/tomorrow

Meant to say 3 days.

so even though i said i wouldnt i have done a couple of OPKs -mainly out of curiosity! Partly to feel like im doing something as fiancé is still not ready to fully TTC.

The little line has got darker each time, pre-mom app said ive gone from low to high, does that mean im ovulating? or is it when it drops that you've ovulated? Sorry for novice questions!

Woke up from the nicest dream last night where i was pregnant... so ready now!

@DanisEndo that means ovulation is close. When it says peak, that's when you get busy. The LH surge will be your peak and will be a dye-stealer on the test strip. The two most important days are your surge and ovulation which are generally back to back as you ovulate anywhere between 12 to 48 hours after surge.

@Dreamingof3 how are you finding the bloating? I look absolutely massive! I've had a few people ask jokingly if I'm pregnant. I know it's not a bump but the bloat has me looking huge. I have a flat stomach normally so it's very noticeable.

@SarahShorty thank you thats really helpful! Looks like i have a day or two to convince other half that we should go for it :')

Fingers crossed @SarahShorty and @Bananatoast123!

CD12 today- yesterday's OPK was lighter but I did get a little EWCM so hopefully we're heading in the right direction! 🤞

@Theawkwardblonde fortunately for me (first time I've said that!) I'm a bit fat anyway so you cant tell 😂😂

Thank you @EdinburghGirl1 and @HeathenPlayingHouse

I’m CD20 today and third day in a row of EWCM, but still negative OPKs. Last month I got my peak on CD19 so not sure what’s going on this month, maybe a few days behind but EWCM is confusing me!

Morning everybody!

I am CD2 of cycle 3.
I am going to order pre-seed and give it a go (not expecting anything major).

I use the easy@home ovulation tests and clearblue ovulation tests, i have been considering BBT on the premom app.. Does anybody do BBT? I really do want to give it a go but think I’d become focused on any temp dips.

Any advice/experiences would be brilliant 🙂

Took a test and it’s a BFN again! I thought it was wishful thinking 😔 now to wait for AF and onto next cycle!

@Bananatoast123 You're not out til you're out! 🤞

It's so good to hear from someone else who had periods on it! I've had a strange history with contraception, I was on microgynon for a while and it was a dream! No periods, amazing skin & hair I loved it. I had to stop it for surgery and when I went back on it made me violently sick! Ever since I've only been able to take progesterone only contraception. The mini pill / implant both still gave me periods, I was doomed 🤣
I'm tracking this cycle & hoping I'll ovulate but also trying not to get my hopes up too much incase I don't. I am getting a bit obsessed which is annoying me but like you I'm a control freak and just want to know what's happening 🤣

@HeathenPlayingHouse I know! I keep thinking like have I tested with weak wee etc but I’m going down a rabbit hole! I’m going to give it until Wednesday before I test again!

@EdinburghGirl1 Can tell I'm new here and don't know how to tag people yet 😂

@LauraA31 I do BBT. It's useful as a look-back to see if you've ovulated. It also rises steadily a few days before your expected period. It's not useful for everybody, though.
