Hoping that's most of you please add anyone I've forgotten 💕

@SleepyBlonde Sorry you're having ovary pain :( I hope it settles down.

@bringmearainbow I've had no EWCM today and just did another OPK and it's still in the 0.4 range. I really, really hope it didn't happen CD11/12 and that my body will gear up again in a few days. We did cover that window just in case but it could screw with IVF next month if it's that early.

We're actually paying for it tomorrow 🤦🏻‍♀️

@TheBirdintheCave it's settled now but I just know it'll get worse.

Pay the whole shebang now?🙈 I was reading some threads about it last night it all looks super complicated

@TheBirdintheCave oooh I hope it goes again for you 🤞🏼 is your temp still up? Eeek that's scary but also exciting 🙈

Nothing exciting to report here opk still low this morning. Wish I could take some to work but i never take my bag to the toilet so would look a bit strange if I did 🤦🏼‍♀️ I'll have to wait until this evening

@bringmearainbow can you take a opk packet, tuck it into your bra and then pee into the actual packet? Just make sure you take out the moisture little bag thingy. I learnt that trick off another mumsnetter - works like a charm!

@SleepyBlonde Yep the whole £4k before we can even book our next appointments.

@bringmearainbow Yes and no. It's still raised but only to the point of the cover line from last month. No cross hairs yet.

@bunnykins123 That is inspired! I never would have thought to pee in the packet.

@bunnykins123 that is bloody genius! I'll be def doing that today 😂

@TheBirdintheCave ooh hopefully It will give it another go then 🤞🏼

@bringmearainbow I hope so. OPK still in the 0.4s 🙄I think this cycle is a bit of a write off tracking wise what with my fever and now my cold. I'll carry on temping and doing OPKs with SMU but I think my chart is so messed up that FF probably won't give me cross hairs at any point. Probs best for me to just dtd every other day until my baseline scan which will confirm if O happened or not and, if so, then I can try and work out when was the most likely time.

@TheBirdintheCave

@TheBirdintheCave 😂 I dropped my phone and pushed post 🤦🏼‍♀️ when is the baseline scan?

I just tried the pee in a packet trick worked a charm 😂 the 5 minutes felt like absolutely forever though 🙈 everyone probably thought I was going for the longest poo 🤣

@bringmearainbow I usually just waltz in with my bag. No one has questioned me yet 😂

@SleepyBlonde I wouldn't put it past them to ask me 😂 they are a nosey bunch of women everyone knows about your period or your thrush or any other bloody problem you might have 🙄 im getting annoyed at looking at low opks now hurry up and ovulate already body 🤣

@bringmearainbow I was gonna ask how it was looking too. Hopefully it peaks soon 🙏

@SleepyBlonde it looks depressing 😂

@bringmearainbow Husband is booking it now so I shall find out the actual date soon. It's sometime next week though.

Well, it's all ruined. We have to skip March now cos their isn't a slot for the stupid nurses consent appointment. All because they took a week and two days to tell me that I could book appointments without waiting for my IVF report thing. I'm so upset. Another month down the drain.

*there ffs

@TheBirdintheCave ahhhh lovely that's crappy and frustrating 😩

@bringmearainbow oh no! That's bad luck. What does DH leave? You can always guarantee the one day you don't want to O will be the day you will. Over the summer, I kept O'ing on the heatwave days when there was absolutely no chance of dtd as we were both gross!

@TheBirdintheCave oh hun that's so disappointing. Hoping that this month is a successful month and you don't need to worry about nurse appointments!

@bunnykins123 Yeah it sucks :( I can't see this cycle or the next working out to be honest (as it normally takes eons for me to get pregnant) so it just all seems like a massive waste of time. There definitely won't be a baby for me in 2023 now. It's January 2024 at the earliest :(

@bunnykins123 he doesn't go until Saturday so we've got two more days of dtd but I was hoping to catch O day and day after 🙄 it's always the bloody way. I got hopeful because cm is the right stuff 🤷🏼‍♀️

@bringmearainbow Any joy with the OPKs this evening? Mine is still low 🙄

@TheBirdintheCave @bringmearainbow still low here 🙋‍♀️

@TheBirdintheCave just back from work and read your update ☹️ really hoping you fall before and do you get a refund if you do? Xx

@SleepyBlonde nope still low I'll do one before bed but honestly I don't think it will rise tonight 🙄 I bet the bastard thing will peak Saturday and ovulate Sunday

@TheBirdintheCave sorry I quickly read the message whilst sorting dinner and now I've read it properly I realised it was from you 🤦🏼‍♀️
