@4LeafCloverBaby I wanted to ask did you do your temperature orally or vaginally? X

@Lowrilawson thanks i have some easy home ones coming from ebay so if this cycle is unsuccessful i will use them next month

@Cazzy87 I found that turning the flash on when I took the pic on Premom helps get a better reading. 🤞🏼 Hopefully tonight’s will be lighter & then you know that you’ve ovulated! Im feeling ok thanks, little waves of feeling a bit weak & shakey & tender boobs & cramps but that’s all so far. Really hoping I don’t get the sickness 🙏🏼🤞🏼I booked a scan for 10weeks but I’ve also just booked a scan for this Sunday just to make sure I’m not spending the next 4 weeks looking forward to a scan for no reason. There won’t be much to see on this scan but hey may be able to see a heartbeat ☺️x

@Lowrilawson I always did it under my tongue because I sleep with my mouth closed so it’s reliable for me. x

@4LeafCloverBaby I have been doing it orally, not sure about whether my mouth stays closed or not ahah, I have been doing it vaginally, with a different thermometer and seems I get a better reading, maybe next month I'll do it vaginally if I haven't caught xx

@Lowrilawson yeah it’s worth a shot isn’t it 😊🤞🏼🍀

@4LeafCloverBaby yeah! I hate the wait, I feel different this month and definitely getting some symptoms but I just feel like I'll be disappointed again xx

@Lowrilawson well I saw the weird stomach movements at 5DPO (wish I could post vids on here) & then just knew from then…so it could be that you have some kind of intuition. I guess just try & stay grounded so as not to be too disappointed if it’s not x

@4LeafCloverBaby that's very true I'm 5dpo I think today and my boobs are so sore, I'm in work wanting to take my bra off as it's hurting on the inner side and underneath so maybe🤷🏻‍♀️ or could just still be progesterone aha xx

@Lowrilawson i didn’t get sore boobs until 11dpo…I kept poking them thinking are they sore hahaha

Getting some serious cramps this evening like pms cramps anyone else have this at ovulation? Mostly down left side x

@Cazzy87 yes I did! I could literally pinpoint where my ovaries were as the pain was right there. Some women even get a little spotting at ovulation. Have you done a test tonight?

@4LeafCloverBaby opk dark again today🤷🏻‍♀️ I hope it's not telling me I haven't ovulated ahah xx

@Lowrilawson hmmm that’s interesting isn’t it! After I ovulated my opk went back to hardly a line at all & I don’t know when they got dark again. I tested on an opk after the positive preg test. Oooooo I’m really hoping for you!!! x

@4LeafCloverBaby I'm hoping, I mean my boobs are really sore on and off some twinges but yeah the opks, I had a look and they are darker than the ones I did before my positive opk, I didn't do an ovulation test after my line went a bit faded, I wish I had now xx

@4LeafCloverBaby premom is worrying me a bit, I finally downloaded the app and put my highest test in and it said it's only 0.86 but I had the slippy discharge so I must have ovulated, well I hope xx

@Lowrilawson everyone has different levels hun, don’t worry. As long as it was the darkest test. Also it may have dried different

@4LeafCloverBaby yeah I've looked through all of mine as I get rid of them when my new cycle and it definitely was darkest day 17/18 xx

@4LeafCloverBaby yes did one looks same as last night really, going go try dtd tonight- really struggle with mornings dtd as partner leave silly early for trucking 🚚 😒

@Cazzy87 urgh how selfish of him haha. Sounds good…maybe just aim for when you’re both home from work rather than late at night

👋 hello everyone, I’m back. I haven’t managed to catch up on all messages but hoping you’re all ok. 2dpo here but only managed to dtd once the day before ovulation due to dht working late at nights. Strangely I’m feeling ok about it even though I’m most likely not going to get a positive result at the end of this month. It’s somehow eased the pressure a bit and I think we’ll get back to a better routine in March 🤞 also it gives me a chance to take my fertility test - I couldn’t do it last month as day 3 landed on a work day and I’ve got too much to do in the mornings without adding that in the mix 🤣

@4LeafCloverBaby i know tell me about it! haha
that is difficult too! as i have a 9 year old home and not in bed at that time too! haha 😂
but my easy@home strips came and they are so much better! did one this morning and still a stark line there so if the lines hold up tomorrow i may try dtd tomorrow evening again and sat morning if we can as he doesnt work sat
WB @onetwoandthree :)

Welcome back @onetwoandthree!

DPO9 for me and not even a tiny twinge. Day 9, I finally worked out, was when I started feeling implantation cramps last time, so feeling pretty glum. At least it means I don't want to waste tests!

@onetwoandthree welcome back 🙂 Glad you’re feeling relaxed about things & good luck with your fertility testing 🤞🏼🍀

@Cazzy87 It makes such a different using the easy@home ones doesn’t it! Glad they are working well for you ☺️ That sounds like a good plan 🍀🤞🏼

@KittyFantastica I don’t think implantation would always happen at the same time each pregnancy so who knows. Anyway, try to relax & just wait for a missed period if you can. Try to keep your chin up & do some self love, bit of pampering or something to cheer you up x

@Lowrilawson how you doing today hunny? 🙂

@4LeafCloverBaby hiya I'm okay my temp is 36.3 today so one degree down, I've got twinging and throbbing on my right lower abdomen, sore Stabby boobs and a bit of back ache. 6/7dpo today xx

@4LeafCloverBaby really bizarre, just been sat at my desk working and suddenly got a sharp pain on my right side into my middle, literally split second made me shout ouch! Then was gone, if I'm not pregnant I will be shocked agah xx
