@RaisingCornishWildlings I'm so sorry 😔 It is a very cruel game indeed.
AF due today so we might be on the same cycle this month...

RaisingCornishWildlings · 16/05/2024 06:30

Well; that saves me a test. Woken up to AF- two days earlier than expected!

I'm sorry @RaisingCornishWildlings 😢❤️❤️

BBT back down today plus I’ve been awake on and off for 2 hours with what feels like AF cramps. I wish she would just appear, then I can get on with it.

Would you test to just be done with it.

@Ella31 I would definitely recommend it although like I said it's pricey. I don't want to make you spend more money than you should...

It depends if you feel it will give you more information than OPK. This month was the first I used both and I'm glad I had the monitor because it told me my fertile window started on CD12 so we knew when to get started and no need to stress before that. It said my peak was on CD17 (and CD18). With the OPK I didn't see a real rise in LH until the peak (CD17) so that would have been a surprise...

Then it tells you when to start testing for pregnancy (3 days before AF is due) and you can test using the monitor, and also it gives you a countdown of when AF is due (I'll tell you tomorrow if it was right).

Like I said I got pregnant the first month and then the second month of using it so I'm happy so far (if it wasn't for the MMC and having to use it once again). Now is my third time so let's see...

Hi, I just wondered if you've also used the clear blue digital kits and whether the monitor does much more than those, apart from log it, like you might in an app?

Trying to decide whether I splash out or not!!

emmatcc1 · 16/05/2024 13:39

I went from thinking I’ll ovulate early to now probably ovulating late. Cd12 and LH has been sitting at around 0.25 for the last 3 days which is higher than usual. I get a high reading, next day is peak and the day after is ovulation which means earliest I can ovulate is cd15.

So today marks the day I'd have been halfway through. We went for a walk to the beach today and while there I get a call from the crematorium to say they've managed to get some ashes together from my baby. I didn't expect anything being about 8 weeks when baby stopped growing. Now my heads up my a*se but I'm also thankful I'll get something so I can do something to remember my baby. Due on on Saturday too so hormonal anyway.

Hope you ladies are all OK?

@RaisingCornishWildlings So sorry to see Af has arrived early. When's hubby back?

Oh @DonnaWhat it seems so hard now but you'll treasure that in time to come. So much love to you because it's so bloody hard xxx

@Ella31 i didn’t test purely because I thought AF was going to arrive. No more cramps today and no AF. I have no idea what’s going on

I'd test @Ncl31 you must be 16 dpo now. But see how you feel

@spamOFtheDAY I'm not sure what the difference is between the two. The monitor might give you more info on your fertile window? Also it tells you when to test for ovulation and for pregnancy (you can test both with it) and when your period is due. I think that might be it.

I would test too ☺️ you'll know either way after that...

Ncl31 · 16/05/2024 20:58

@MisssMarion @Ella31 tested with a 5 hour hold.
BFN as expected, I’m just ready for AF now.

I'm sorry. I hope it comes swiftly now for you. If it means anything I think last month was a nightmare of a month. It's summer now and hopefully start of new things and hope xxx

Not cheeky at all! I didn't track ovulation but I would say it was either CD13/14 based on EWCM and when I got my positive. We dtd days 8/10/12/14

So every other day from the beginning of fertile week essentially!

How are you getting on? Xx

I'm so sorry 😔 I can only imagine how you must be feeling…
BFN for me 3 days in a row so defo not pregnant and yet no AF today as planned 😤 It’s going to be at least a 32 day cycle. Never seen before for me and my usually regular 28-day cycles. The universe likes to play tricks on us…

I've always only ever done every other day and it's always worked for me 😊

Don't have the energy for more than that 😂

Welcome @Tallgirl91 sorry for your loss. It can take a while for your period to resume. For me personally it took at least 8 weeks. But rest assured this is your bodies way of recovering. Just a small side fact as well, you will ovulate before your period comes so be aware of that if you are waiting for period to arrive first. It is possible to be conceive before your first period.

@Ella31 Thank you ! Yes iv had a bit of spotting and definitely ovulated this month. We dtd but I’m kinda hoping to get AF soon now as feel rough! How are you getting on? Xx

Just keep hoping. It's rough after loss so just keep going. Your body will do all the rest. I'm doing fine. Cycle Day 6 so early still this month.

@Ella31 i know it’s literally so tough! Find myself not focusing on anything else ! Aww i hope it’s your month !! ☺️ My last pregnancy I had bfp @ 9dpo which was a shock but definitely don’t feel like that now. But yes I agree I’m kind of glad I’m hopefully getting AF in the next few days as am spotting and just want my body to cleanse itself. I hope you get your BFP xx

I've just finished my first period since my D&C in March. It was a long and horrible wait, I hope it's not that way for you. We are relaxing this month and just leaving things be, though I've been trying to track ovulation just to see if my cycle is back to normal and neither OPKs or temping is showing much. I was like clockwork before my two losses.

Anyway, good luck and I'm sorry you're in the same boat ❤️
