Anybody else in the same boat??

I'm 5dpo and I've had an ache on my right side through yesterday evening and all today
It's not painful but can't ignore it 🤣

Wondering if anyone has similar or is waiting like me 😊

@chamena wahoo! Same 🙂 I had a lot of CM yesterday, and I mean A LOT!!

5dpo today!
chamena · 27/04/2024 08:44

@GSD2024 yay! Do you reckon you’ll ovulate today or tomorrow? My tests are even darker this morning so I’m wondering if tomorrow is ovulation for me

GSD2024 · 27/04/2024 08:47

I’m not sure, we are going to DTD tonight and then that will likely be it. How about you? I think I missed my ovulation last month, which I’m sad about as would have loved a December baby!!

chamena · 27/04/2024 08:54

Darkest I’ve seen so far

5dpo today!

@Hannah4850 @JM1997 @chamena how are you all? Hannah, how’s your weekend away?

so I definitely peaked on the OPK’s yesterday, we DTD last night. I know ovulation can take place 24-48 hours after peak, so when do I start counting the DPO days from?

GSD2024 · 28/04/2024 07:22

My OPK’s

Heya!
We got back home at 5am this morning haha I drank WAY too much and feel a bit fuzzy but we DTD yesterday and I had a darker opk so I'm hoping today/tomorrow will be full positive but I only got to test yesterday first thing
I count the dpo from the day of my darkest opk personally, how are you feeling??💖

We only managed to dtd the day of my smiley Clearblue, day before my strongest peak on easy@homes. Probably out for this month but at least we managed once in my window.

with ovulation days and opks - my understanding is that the Clearblues tend to show your ‘peak’ a day or so earlier than the read yourself cheaper strips. So I tend to think of ovulation day as 2 days after my static smiley on a Clearblue, one day after a strong positive strip opk. @GSD2024 I would think your ovulation day was CD16 looking at your tests.

Hope your trip was fun @Hannah4850 !

GSD2024 · 29/04/2024 06:16

Ahh @Hannah4850 i hope you had a lovely time.

@chamena thanks, that’s what I thought, so I’m now 1DPO. Let the wait begin!! How are you feeling? Xx

Hannah4850 · 29/04/2024 10:28

Hiya girlies!!
Dublin was great didn't want to be back in the office this morning haha 😅
I also need some help I think I've ovulated early again 🤔😫
I've got 3 tests
Top (cd 11)
Middle (cd 12)
Bottom (cd 13) - today

I think it's darkest on cd11 and he's been getting lighter since but I'm not sure it's even a full positive on cd11??
Could I have ovulated while away on cd 11 do you think?? I've had awful aches and pains since Saturday afternoon 💖

@Hannah4850 I am so glad you had a fantastic time in Dublin! Apologies for the slow response to the feed we went away to rhe Cotswolds at the weekend with my parents! I would say that it looks like you’ve ovulated on CD11 especially as you’ve been getting aches and pain. I think I thought I ovulated too early as yesterday I did an ovulation test and straight away two lines came up whereas when I thought I’d ovulated it took a while for the two lines to come up upon reflection, we ended up DTD last night as well so hopefully we have given ourselves the best possible chance. When did you DTD as I read somewhere that sperm can be in the body up to 48 hours😊

JM1997 · 29/04/2024 11:28

@GSD2024 just think if it happened this cycle you won’t then be in hospital over Christmas, and then you can enjoy being pregnant at Christmas! I have to keep thinking of positives if it doesn’t happen that cycle. You’ve got this 👏🏻👏🏻

JM1997 · 29/04/2024 11:31

@chamena you could still be in on this cycle. I just keep telling myself you don’t know if you’re out until AF comes 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 sending baby dust to all of you this cycle. I think we are going to DTD again tonight, as according to my app if I did test positive for the first time on my ovulation test yesterday then today and tomorrow will be my last fertile days 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 At this point I am starting to think it is luck 🤣🤣

Hiya lovely!
How was your weekend?! Did you have a great time??
We DTD on cd10, 11 and 12 so fingers crossed we've done our best 🤞🏻🤞🏻
I'll keep doing opks the next couple days incase I have a random second surge etc but if not I hope we get caught!💖

@Hannah4850 my weekend was so lovely and relaxing, it felt like a proper holiday, as I took the Friday off work too. Eeeek I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you, fingers crossed we’ve both tracked our ovulation correctly. How are you feeling today?? 🩷

Aww I love that!
Feel like with all the ttc we do need breaks don't we!
I feel okay about tender this morning where I've had the aches but just looking forward to getting home and an early night tbh!
How about you??
I'm counting today as 2dpo then unless I get another spike, how far are you??💖

JM1997 · 29/04/2024 16:05

@Hannah4850 we honestly do, breaks are so important 🥰🥰 I know how that feels, when we got back last night it was so lovely to be home! I’m okay thank you, just been keeping busy today prepping for the week. However I do keep getting cramps on my left and right hand side, I started the morning with a hot water bottle which helped, I think I am 1dpo. Keep me updated, I hate this part as now it is a waiting game!

I hate the wait too!
I've done another opk and it seems to be darker again 🙄 this wait to ovulate kills me more than the tww honestly!

Hiya!
Thank you 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I'm just trying to figure out when I did/will ovulate it's a bit messy this time 😫
Where the you up to??💖

Those ovulation strips have always confused me. I always test super early anyway as I have no patience.

I should be 5w3 today and I had cramping and bit of pink dc last night so I’m just not hopeful. Very bloated also. No other symptom other than tiredness.

Oh wow so you've had your Bfp??
If so I wouldn't worry too much I've had spotting and cramps with all my pregnancies 💖
