To give a little more insight, the highest my LH has been that I've tested is .19, which my PreMom app says is low. But I'm horrible at consistently testing.

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/07/2022 08:54

@TryTheNight When do you normally test? I try test between 1pm and 3pm and try hold wee for about 2 hours before I test. Sometimes it doesn't always go to plan and have tested at 6pm before.

TryTheNight · 21/07/2022 10:42

@BellaTheDarkOverlord I try to test when I first wake up. However, due to my insomnia, it varies wiiiiiiidely. For example, it is almost 5am where I'm located and I can't sleep (haven't slept at all yet so I'm cleaning the house). Which is probably a big part of my inconsistent testing.

7DPO today, feeling a little sick and the smell of my coffee made me heave this morning, don't seem to have the backache today but there's a discomfort of some kind if that makes sense? Having to resist so hard to test this cycle 😅

Angie2018 · 21/07/2022 13:13

How are we all? 5dpo today! Feel NOTHING. So expecting AF on the 30/31 July! Wishing everyone a BFP soon!! X

bellaolive · 21/07/2022 13:26

Hey, I'm the same 30/31st testing days I'm aiming for! Equally nothing but feel super tired and hungry (what's new?! 😂). I did read that it's impossible for your body to feel anything symptom-wise so soon after ovulation though, more likely 7DPO+

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/07/2022 13:28

@TryTheNight Have you had a read of SMEP? Sperm Meets Egg Plan? It's a good read and says that the best time to test with OPKs is in the afternoon. I'd suggest trying with afternoon wee for better results rather than first morning. Goodluck with getting some better results x

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/07/2022 13:29

@Angie2018 1DPO so not symptom spotting yet 😀I'm hoping for no symptoms at all for at least 10 days which is what I had with my last pregnancy.

Angie2018 · 21/07/2022 13:33

Hey @bellaolive yeah I mean you are totally right! I am now worried that the lack of PMS symptoms is a bad thing 🙈 the month I had my chemical I had zero symptoms but I don't know I can't help overthink what if my hormones aren't enough!!

Angie2018 · 21/07/2022 13:35

@BellaTheDarkOverlord ah yes me too! I was the same with my chemical pregnancy! The difference for me was the lack of any symptom until implantation which was very obvious symptoms at 9/10dpo. But I usually get sore boobs and cervix twinges from 6dpo so I normally KNOW AF is coming so like you I bloody hope I have zero symptoms this month!!

EdinburghGirl1 · 21/07/2022 13:46

@kizzy97 hopefully these are positive things. I know the sense of smell can be an early pregnancy symptom. I know I went off coffee in my first pregnancy but that was after my bfp and mainly due to feeling kinds nauseous

@BellaTheDarkOverlord I was similar and probably started feeling things around 9/10dpo and just felt like I was coming down with something. It was the inability to do my workout due to no energy on 11dpo that was the giveaway for me which is what made me test.

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/07/2022 13:56

@EdinburghGirl1 @Angie2018 Mine was no symptoms until 9-11dpo when I got a few days of sharp left side electric twinges shooting downwards. Then I didn't spot at all before AF. This led me to test as I always spot before AF. Got my BFP at 11dpo which was faint on frer but negative on cheapies. So I'm looking out for same this time 😀

Angie2018 · 21/07/2022 14:45

@BellaTheDarkOverlord fingers crossed for us!! So far no symptoms but it's way too early 🤣 although last month I was noticing boob pain about now sort of 1/10 so I have zero right now so hoping it's a positive sign! Doubtful though

Missy95 · 21/07/2022 14:49

Hi all, jumping on from another post!
Ive been TTC for around 19/20 months, 1 tfmr and 1 early mc.
Got my BFP today at around 4 weeks 5 days. I had pink spotting earlier in the week and thought it was AF coming! Sore boobs and super tired. I was apprehensive to test, but went for it! Shocked to see a dye stealer!!!
Good luck to everyone else. Sending baby dust ✨

Oops forgot to add the picture! ✨✨✨

@Missy95 congratulations!!! I love this forum just for the simple fact of being able to celebrate other people while I wait. Wishing you safe pregnancy xxxx

My2boysaremyworld · 21/07/2022 15:42

@Angie2018 no symptoms here too but haven't got tender boobs like I normally get 🤷🏻‍♀️xx

My2boysaremyworld · 21/07/2022 15:43

@Missy95 congratulations 🎉 xx

Missy95 · 21/07/2022 15:44

Thanks ladies! I could burst wanting to tell someone, but also so anxious at the same time! These forums are so helpful and comforting! Xx

Angie2018 · 21/07/2022 15:57

@My2boysaremyworld yeah that's how I knew with my chemical that I was pregnant because my boobs were not sore at all. I just knew the implantation symptoms and had elevated temps. Maybe it is your month?? I'd love this to be my month as it would be due around my 34th birthday but it won't be my month because that would be too nice and easy 🙄 xx

kizzy97 · 21/07/2022 16:05

@EdinburghGirl1 when I was pregnant with DS it was one of my first signs, but he was a surprise pregnancy so I don't how many DPO that started up at

@Missy95 huge congratulations! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months!

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/07/2022 17:57

@Missy95 congrats! I hope for a sticky bean for you x Let's hope your good luck brings the rest of us good luck too!

@Angie2018 Looks like we're similar ages, if this is my month I'll be due just after I turn 34 😀Hopefully it'll be your month and a lovely birthday present for next year.

Lollywhite · 21/07/2022 20:08

Angie2018 · 21/07/2022 20:25

@BellaTheDarkOverlord ahhhh what date is your birthday? I am 5th april!! Is this your first baby you are trying for?? Fingers crossed for us this month it would be the best birthday present ever!

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/07/2022 20:49

@Lollywhite I'm not sure as I use the normal OPKs. When do you test? I find afternoon resting gives best results.

@Angie2018 Feb 4th 😀This is second baby after a 7 year gap. We weren't too sure whether we ever would TTC again but we decided it's probably going to be our last chance now. This is cycle 4 I think. Excited and hoping my body is still up for it.
