@TheBirdintheCave yes hopefully he will be fine by then...he better be 😂 oh yes it's super faint what a bugger but like you say at least that scan will tell you if it's happened 💪🏼

Well I've managed one day so far of zero bleeding 🙄 so I'm praying to whoever will listen that's it's done and dusted 🙏🏼 I've got zero cm I'm really not holding out any hope it's going to happen this weekend at all. I know still could and plenty of time for that cm to show but I feel a bit lost like it's never going to happen or I'm going to be waiting another 2 weeks. I don't know why I'm being such a negative nelly I'm usually a much more positive person

@bringmearainbow Sounds like we've swapped! 😂 I still have faith that you will O later this week 🤞🏻❤️

bringmearainbow · 25/01/2023 06:58

@TheBirdintheCave 😂 think we have 🙊 I'm glad you have the faith for me I think I need that ❤️ woke up to a snotty nose this is never a good sign for me I'm in bed with DS watching cartoons I can't bring myself to go do a covid test just yet 🙈

@bringmearainbow Oh no :( I really hope you haven't caught it. My son has a cold at the moment so my husband and I had very patchy sleeps last night x_x Fortunately my husband is the one who actually gets up to do the resettling 😅

monsteramunch · 25/01/2023 09:22

@bringmearainbow

Definitely sounds like a duvet day is in order! Really hope you manage to swerve the bug Flowers

monsteramunch · 25/01/2023 09:24

Test wise today would be ovulation day but temping wise looks like it's not.

So rather than DTD strategically for our best shot, it looks like we haven't.

And probably won't be able to DTD tonight or tomorrow due to work trips.

Gutted 😞

@monsteramunch If the blue line is the temps and I didn't have any other information I'd say you ovulated on CD14 as your temps have been on the rise since then.

bringmearainbow · 25/01/2023 09:46

@TheBirdintheCave @monsteramunch duvet day would be lush but the office is very thin with staff so I've dragged myself in as covid test is negative one small mercy at least!

@monsteramunch I also think looks like CD14/15 how odd. We're you doing the opks a few times a day? I think you're covered with the days you've managed. It might become a bit clearer once you've had a few more days of temping

@TheBirdintheCave how was your temp this morning?

Ooh I wonder... here are my OPKs, what do you reckon?

Left hand stabby pains today now I'm up and about which makes me feel a bit more positive than my post earlier.

I wonder if temping wise I've been doing it at times that are too different rather than always a set time on the dot each day?

Sorry I feel like I'm asking so many questions!

bringmearainbow · 25/01/2023 09:58

@monsteramunch so you def could of had a peak a bit later in the evening of CD14 which would be the start. Im sure I've read somewhere that you can release an egg as early as 8 hours after peak. So with the temping they say you should take it the same time every day but natural cycles say there is a leeway of 2 hours either side and as long as you've had a good chunk of at least 4 hours sleep it should be fine. Tbh I take mine anytime between 3am and 6am and there is very little variation

TheBirdintheCave · 25/01/2023 10:21

@monsteramunch How different are the times you're taking it?

@bringmearainbow It went up :D I discounted the two temps influenced by alcohol so I could see the trend better 😅

Thanks so much for this. Fingers crossed egg and swimmers have had / will have a chance to meet with our timings!

monsteramunch · 25/01/2023 10:37

@TheBirdintheCave

Timings wise the app has logged them on the pic attached here.

I've generally logged within the same two hours daily with a couple of anomalies.

Annoyingly one was day 14 which could have been a useful one to have in the same timeframe as the others!

monsteramunch · 25/01/2023 10:41

And I need to try to remind myself that we've DTD at least every other day in my fertile window this month and that's what we've been told to do!

LuckyMoonstone · 25/01/2023 12:01

@monsteramunch I agree with everyone else that O was CD14 or 15

monsteramunch · 25/01/2023 12:17

Thanks gang - the app has updated since this morning's OPK (see pic attached) and agreed with you clever lot I think!

Would be great if it was CD14/15 timing wise.

God, all this effort and strategy there are some people who have sex once the first month and it just happens... mad, isn't it?!

@monsteramunch Nice! I feel like a fertility sage now 😂

LuckyMoonstone · 25/01/2023 12:43

@monsteramunch sometimes it takes a few days to think about it then decides when ovulation was 😅 glad it’s figured it out!

The women of MN are well ahead of an app that cost goodness knows how much to create 😂

LuckyMoonstone · 25/01/2023 13:01

@monsteramunch should just set up a business where women email us their charts and tests and we’ll tell them when ovulation is/was 😅

monsteramunch · 25/01/2023 13:08

@LuckyMoonstone

I'm in! I'll have to be a silent partner though because I don't have the guessing gift yet 😂

Meet you in the Dragon's Den?

bringmearainbow · 25/01/2023 13:54

Ok after my sulking I've had a bit of promising looking CM def not loads but looking like it's going in the right direction 😂now if only we have enough energy for dtd I look like bloody Rudolph 🙄 maybe I'll have to tell DH that it's fertile week this month so we can at least get one in but I'm so reluctant to

OP posts:
TheBirdintheCave · 25/01/2023 14:04

@bringmearainbow Would he say no if you told him it was go time? Also, hoorah for fertile CM!

bringmearainbow · 25/01/2023 14:25

@TheBirdintheCave he won't say no but I've always avoided mentioning whenever it's fertile time so not to put any pressure on him don't want to create any issues that are not there if that makes sense. I just initiate I'm sure he knows he's not stupid but I've never actually ever said to him were in fertile week so we must dtd I've always been very casual about it 🙊 he said he's not feeling too bad so might ask him when I get home if he wants to poke me later 😂 be good if it can be today I'll give him tomorrow off then we'll be away anyway and that just goes hand in hand with being away
