Hi

Just wondered if anyone in the same situation

Just done an opk and yes, it's as light as yesterday I'd say, so annoying 😑 I have a horrible headache today which is normal for me after ovulation when progesterone starts to increase but I don't know if that still happens without ovulation or whether you can ovulate without an LH surge?! Should have been a gynaecologist to navigate round TTC!

Wonder if the business of christmas has thrown our bodies out?

Mumma8538 · 31/12/2023 19:01

Hey,

one done a few test and they were getting stronger but the line isn’t thick if that makes sense like yours… mine is stronger on the right but then lighter towards the left. I am day 16 and my app says I should have ovulated yesterday .. didn’t do a test yesterday . To be honest we haven’t DTD that much, don’t know about anyone else but I e been knackered with Christmas so I think it’s not the right month For us with TTC.

i never know how true the apps are, aren’t the test more reliable ?

I think the OPKs should be more reliable but they don't account for our bodies doing whatever they like 🙁

Completely with you on being knackered, it's been a lot...I'll be glad to get back to work for a rest at this rate!! I would love a september baby though 😩

Mumma8538 · 02/01/2024 11:25

Has anyone’s tests got the darker line yet and ovulating ? I think for us next cycle I’m going to track properly . Christmas just threw me out completely

Hi @Mumma8538 yes mine look like they're finally on the way up - got 83% today (CD16) no idea why it's late or what that means for my period. Also clueless as to when I should DTD now...any advice?!

Newmumwales · 02/01/2024 15:38

Hi @Mumma8538 lovely to see you back on this thread. I’ve missed you all 🤣 my lines are not darker so not I’m here thinking the darkest test I got was actually my positive. We DTD the night before that. I’ve no idea if I’m in DPO land or not 🙈 feeling ill since New Year’s Eve with a cold. We only DTD once so when AF comes mid January I can see.

Newmumwales · 02/01/2024 15:39

I’m cycle day 17.
If go by my darkest test I’m 5DPO
or if still waiting for OV 🤷🏼‍♀️

Newmumwales · 02/01/2024 15:47

This is my testing. CONFUSED 😕

@Newmumwales maybe you had a really quick peak on the night of CD12 / early hours of CD13? I finally got a reading of 102% today, DTD last night but really cba today (first day back in work) so might just go for tomorrow and hope for a miracle. I really don't know what late ovulation means, is AF still expected on day 28 or day 30?

Mumma8538 · 02/01/2024 22:29

@Impatient1987 how do you know what percentage it is? Does it go over 100% then? Oh gosh I don’t know it ovulation changes your AF date, would if not just stay the same but you ovulated later ?

hey @Newmumwales I would say from the dark lines it was CD12 where you had your peek … so fingers crossed as you DTD the night before.. isn’t it the egg gets released 12-24 hours after that peak!?

@Mumma8538 on the femometer app it shows your % when comparing the test line to control line, so the test line has to be as dark as the control line (100%) or darker (150% for example) to be positive. Here's mine from this cycle

@Impatient1987 i might use this next cycle. We only DTD once and we’ve not been trying but not preventing but I think next cycle I will be trying. What app is it? I’m still unwell and my BBT sky rocketed this morning on my chart. LH still low so I think that low I had on cycle day 12 was actually my peak.

HolyMoly24 · 03/01/2024 12:31

1dpo today on cycle 1 trying to conceive baby no.2

Feeling impatient already. Going to start testing at 10dpo I think which is next Friday

PinkFlamingo888 · 03/01/2024 20:23

Hi ladies! Back in the dreaded TWW again! Funny how this seems to come round so much quicker than my fertile window!
I completely stayed off my app over Christmas and New Year so I’m really not sure whether my dates married up at all, so I’m not feeling particularly hopeful this month. I think this is better though, rather than giving myself false hope!
I had quite strong ovulation pain for about 4 days after my fertile window had supposedly finished so I’m not sure whether I ovulate when I think I do or not. Starting next month I’ll try some ovulation sticks but I didn’t want to overthink it this time. Now just waiting for AF so I can get cracking properly!

Impatient1987 · 11/01/2024 20:48

Hi ladies, how are we all getting on? anyone had any luck this cycle? I'm 8 or 9dpo today, absolutely zero symptoms and a BBT chart that looks like normal (non-pregnant) charts according to Google! Still holding strong on no testing 💪 AF due next Tuesday or weds and feeling a lot less hopeful than last month!

Mumma8538 · 24/01/2024 06:37

Hello - any luck for anyone ?
