I'm just being nosey 🤷

If you have photos of your OPKs from negative to positive share away! I find it super fascinating that some have a really clear progression and some are stark negative all the way until blazing positive.

I'm definitely one of those who always have a pretty clear line and then all of a sudden it's positive.

@HopefullMumto4 that's a strong peak! Do you think you're in TWW now? @Ecj92 that's a steady climb :) hopefully won't be long now!

HopefullMumto4 · 10/08/2023 07:57

@ThelastRolo20 I'm still waiting for fertility friend to confirm ovulation but I'm considering myself 2dpo today 😬😬

Are you getting the itch to test yet? 🤣

@HopefullMumto4 I think I'm only 3DPO so not yet but I think from Monday it'll be tempting! I'm not hopeful though due to the complete lack of EWCM and only having sex once around ovulation! Will try and hold out as close as possible to AF due date.

What about you? Are you eager to test as soon as?? Grin

I also have a complete lack of it! But i rarely do.

It's my husbands birthday at 8dpo so I'll probably cave then 🤣 even though I know it will be negative I still want to attempt to give him a stick dipped in urine for his birthday.

@SnookyPook @ThelastRolo20 Hi! Some help please lovely’s! Surely these should be changing? I am so lost x

@HopefullMumto4 who doesn't want a stick dipped in urine as a birthday present haha! Make sure to let us know the outcome!
@Ecj92 don't worry, mine were a lot fainter than yours until a rapid peak day 14/15 - it's still within normal range for a cycle. How long are your cycles normally? X

Ecj92 · 10/08/2023 19:51

@ThelastRolo20 They are between 29 and 31 days x

HopefullMumto4 · 10/08/2023 20:06

@Ecj92 don't worry, cd 13 is still super early for ovulation. With an average of 29 -31 day cycles and 10/11 day luteal phase that's still not an ovulation day until cd 18-20!

Mine went from what yours looked to blazing positive in about 18 hours.

@HopefullMumto4 Oh really ok, I thought it would at least start showing some signs of going up. I guess it’s just learning how my tests go for me. How are you feeling?

ThelastRolo20 · 12/08/2023 10:52

@Ecj92 how are the tests looking? Any peak yet? X

Ecj92 · 12/08/2023 12:24

@ThelastRolo20 Rising! And have stayed the same since around 1pm yesturday. My plan was to do one around mid day today but we’re away out and I forgot to take one …. Shall do another once I get home. How are you doing? X

ThelastRolo20 · 12/08/2023 13:35

@Ecj92 all you can do is keep testing! Hopefully the peak comes soon :)

I'm okay! Roughly 5 DPO - going to try until at least 12 DPO before testing! Going to be a long week haha

Ecj92 · 12/08/2023 15:24

@ThelastRolo20 Wow that is serious will power!

ThelastRolo20 · 12/08/2023 16:24

@Ecj92 I know but I find if I test closer to my period and it's negative then my next cycle/ chance to try isn't too far away :)

Have you tested again? X

That's such a good way to look at it! I mean, I'll never be that healthy 🤣 but it's a really good attitude.

Ecj92 · 12/08/2023 18:11

@ThelastRolo20 I agree, I hope I can stay that way, when we weren’t tracking ovulation i never rested unless my period was a day late… then it always turned up. I have it’s nearly doubled! Will do another in a few hours, I think my other half has had enough of me showing him the lines and explaining the process 😂

Ecj92 · 13/08/2023 08:51

@HopefullMumto4 @ThelastRolo20 Well if I get this excited with an OPK who knows what I would be like with a BFP I think I May heave reached my peak.

OPKs definitely take the edge off the need to test when TTC haha. That's looking great

@Ecj92 that looks fabulous! Looks like today is the day!

ThelastRolo20 · 14/08/2023 20:10

Hey! How are we all getting on? X

HopefullMumto4 · 14/08/2023 20:47

6dpo and absolutely desperate to test 🤦 are you still holding strong for 12dpo testing @ThelastRolo20 ?

OP posts:
ThelastRolo20 · 14/08/2023 21:01

@HopefullMumto4 still aiming for the 8DPO? not long now! AHH! Yes I am but today I was like.... I could test in a couple days. But then if it's negative I'll tell myself it's too early, whereas 12DPO I'll know for sure. Trying to distract myself so I don't think about it!

Well, ideally at least 9dpo, but Im being realistic 🤣

How long is your LP normally? Does 12dpo mean AF is due / late?

OP posts:
ThelastRolo20 · 14/08/2023 21:26

@HopefullMumto4 AF would normally come 14 DPO so I'll be testing Saturday, with AF due Monday. May try and hold out until Monday but I doubt that'll happen so trying to be realistic about my will power 😂 so you'll be testing Thursday??

Ah honestly you are amazing! Have you noticed any changes at all this cycle?

Yep Thursday 😬

I have never ever had any symptoms with any of my pregnancies so I never symptom watched, but two days in a row now I've gotten nauseated and then vommited then feel absolutely fine after 😭. I am usually the first person to say you can't possibly have symptoms this early but the little idea of it being pregnancy related won't leave me alone. I never even had morning sickness with any of them!
