Hi, I have an app to read the ovulation strips but it's saying it low. I'm expected to ovulate today or tomorrow. It looks really dark to me.
I'll attach a photo

The talk went great, he’s super supportive and said he’s been thinking of getting a sperm analysis done just in case.
@mountainlass We’re going to Croatia end of June for a one day trip. You’re still so early, hoping you get a bfp but if not then at least no morning sickness on your trip.
@Bambin0 I actually use a regular thermometer and I measure vaginally as it gives more accurate result and less fluctuations in the graph even if you take your temp at different time each day.
I’ve attempted supplements (folic acid, b12, b6, d3) for 2 months and it brought ovulation forward to cd11 which was too soon so I stopped and haven’t taken anything since.
If you want to you can take a conception vitamin but you’ll need to research as I have no clue what’s good.
I’ve been using flo for years and didn’t know you can link accounts. I might try this and it’s so cheap.

Well instead of af arriving today my bbt went back up. Haven’t done a test as I’m convinced af will arrive either later today or tomorrow.

mountainlass · 02/06/2024 10:33

@emmatcc1 that's so promising! I have everything crossed that you get your positive that would just be amazing!!! ❤️

Update from me - I was chatting to my partner last night and told him I didn't think this was our month & to prepare for a negative test. We decided to do one last night (9dpo) expecting it to be stark negative but we seen something!! I re tested again this morning 10 dpo and there is a faint line. It is much more clearer in person compared to the pic. We are being very cautious and trying not to get too excited yet as both my previous pregnancies have ended in a late loss & chemical pregnancy. We are terrified of something happening again but we have hope. Praying this is our rainbow baby 🌈❤️

@mountainlass Oh my god that is amazing!!!🎉🎉💕 I can imagine how scary this must be but I’m sure everything will be just fine this time. It’s important to keep stress away as much as possible and be optimistic. Today you are pregnant and that’s what matters. I wish I would’ve appreciated my last pregnancy more and not worried if it’s gonna be viable or not. Will you be having an early scan?

I was so sure 2 days ago that af will be early as I kept on having mild cramps. Then yest I was having these cramps again and we were out shopping when I started to feel a bit wet down there and I was sure it was af but nothing. I’m not testing because I don’t want to be disappointed if it’s negative.

mountainlass · 02/06/2024 11:49

@emmatcc1 honestly thank you for such beautiful words & advice. I needed to hear that, when I first seen the lines I started crying with anxiety instead of being happy and that's not the way it should be at all. We are going to see how the lines progress over the next few days and just stay positive that things will be okay this time. I will definitely be getting an early scan around 7 weeks with the NHS because of what happened loosing our daughter. Her post mortem revealed she most likely had osteogenesis imperfecta type 2 which is a rare genetic condition that affects bone development. The doctor said it's highly unlikely we are genetic carriers and this was a random occurrence but it still carries a small risk of recurrence. It's been such a hard few months and you're right, no point in worrying until we need to ❤️

It's a very good sign your period hasn't came yet, there's every chance this is your month too. Please keep me updated I'm thinking of you and wishing you all the luck 🌈✨

Bambin0 · 02/06/2024 22:16

@emmatcc1 @mountainlass oh my goodness girls I've totally missed a chunk 😊🫣 so sorry, it's been a hectic 2 days. AF arrived yesterday and I've been so upset, then I've been ill with the progesterone drop, so can't get off the toilet. But anyway that's that.

@mountainlass Aaaah my god I absolutely love seeing this, look at those lines 🥹💕 amazing!! absolutely made my night seeing that. And yes you're right Emma -'you're pregnant now' and that's what matters but we totally get where it's coming from and your worries. Bless you 🥰 and congratulations 🎉👏🏼 wishing you all the healthiest of stickiness
@emmatcc1 that is a really good sign, and you haven't tested at all? Wow the will power of an almighty lol I could never. 😂 But good on you girls 💕 loving this wee chat

@Bambin0 Sorry af arrived but new cycle new chance. I actually have tested but not fmu and diluted urine and it was negative. Not sure how much chance there is for a bfp after 14dpo. We’ll see what happens tomorrow.

mountainlass · 03/06/2024 04:45

@emmatcc1 @Bambin0 oh girls I am so so sorry, I am behind you both every step and have everything crossed for June. We need to all remember to look after ourselves, this journey is so challenging & emotionally draining ❤️

emmatcc1 · 03/06/2024 07:40

Bbt dropped all the way down so expecting af today.

emmatcc1 · 03/06/2024 13:16

I took my temp at 5am and it was 36.4, then I went back to sleep and measured again at 10am like I usually do and it was 37. My midday temps are around 37.4 in the luteal phase but no higher than 37 the day before af but just now they were 37.6. Instead of full flow I have minimal brown cm no cramps. I still have sore boobs and nausea.

mountainlass · 03/06/2024 14:24

@emmatcc1 that is so strange I wonder what's going on with you, when is the last time you took a test?

Our bodies really can play tricks on us sometimes, I've not had any notable symptoms at all yet if I didn't test I would genuinely have had no clue I was pregnant!

emmatcc1 · 03/06/2024 14:40

@mountainlass Af properly started now. I already feel so exhausted thinking we have to try again.

Awe bless you love 😘 💕 thank you for your support 🙏🏼 have you tested again? How are you feeling today. Sorry girls this period had floored me but she's almost gone. Thank God.

@emmatcc1 I'm so sorry it wasn't your month, and I TOTALLY get the exhaustion at even the very thought of having to do it again. I sympathise so much. I've decided I'm on tracking and taking temps to practice that. And whatever happens happens. Because like Mentioned honestly it takes over your whole month.

(I say that then I'll be on here all excited with you girls) I also researched what supplements I should be taking so those are there too 💕 hope you are both well. I appreciate our little chat so much.

@Bambin0 I hope you're feeling a bit better and that's good your period is almost gone. This is a new fresh month and I am hopeful & optimistic for you both. It will happen, it's just the not knowing when that's hard ❤️

I am feeling okay, still no symptoms but I'm only 12 dpo still and know that's very early. My tests have been getting progressively darker and we've decided to just take one day at a time and enjoy knowing that right now things are okay!

@emmatcc1 thinking of you, it's so hard taking in the disappointment of another month but try to rest up & hopefully you feel a bit better once your period is over. I'm thinking of you and praying your rainbow baby is just around the corner 🌈

Bambin0 · 07/06/2024 09:21

@mountainlass that is amazing to hear 🤭 so so happy for you. How's it going today? 15dpo? You should have a nice clearblue digital coming up now i think 💕 how are you feeling?

@emmatcc1 how are you doing my love? You'll be on early CD. My thermometer came and other lil bits. Hope you're okay 😘

OP posts:
mountainlass · 07/06/2024 20:46

@Bambin0 yes 15 dpo today, I plucked up the courage yesterday to do my clear blue digital and got the result pregnant 2-3 weeks so looks like things are progressing well for now ❤️

How are you feeling? Has your period ended now I have so much hope for you in this cycle

Aaaah 🙈🥹😍 bless you my love. Congratulations 🎉 Awww I'm so happy for you. Such good news.

Ah thank you darling, we've taken a lil step away for now. And seeing if it maybe just happens. The toll it take on your mental being is a lot. But don't you worry I'll be sure to keep you girls posted on each lil niggle haha 😆 xx

Hi girls 🤗 it's been a minute... How's things?

@Bambin0 I’ve also taken a break 2nd month in a row and it’s helping alot. I just checked in as I got a weird opk to ask if it’s valid. I’m cd14 not ovulated yet which is kinda odd as I usually ovulate day 14 at latest.

It really does build the mental strength just taking yourself away from it all. It's so easy to think this is your month. Hmm pretty much every cd14? From which cd did you start tracking? X

OP posts:
Bambin0 · 13/07/2024 21:32

Also, I'm 7dpo today and took a CB this morning (too early I know)
The faintest blue line came up within the 3min mark so I left it and then got what now looks like an evap.... Do I totally disregard it or hold out for that little squinter line I initially saw?

Is this positive for peak ovu?
OP posts:
emmatcc1 · 14/07/2024 19:24

I’m pretty sure I ovulated evening of yesterday or today. Before my mc I never ovulated past cd14 but in these 6months since this has happened twice now.
I’d stay this isn’t valid. Have you done any more?

I'm guessing you know by temperature? Any other symptoms? Ewcm in the lead up?

No I haven't taken anymore. I have a digital left. Pay day is Friday lol, when AF is due so it's either hold off and use the digital tomorrow at 10dpo or just wait till Friday and see if she comes and save money... but idk I'd say I have a feeling this month but I feel that most months 😆

Should I take the digi tomorrow? I'll be 10dpo

OP posts:
emmatcc1 · 15/07/2024 14:18

@Bambin0 My cervix was closed yesterday so I’m guessing I ovulated yesterday or the day before. I didn’t do bbt this month.
Personally I wouldn’t test. I have recently had that feeling as well. There’s only one more cycle left until my due date and I was so sure I would be pregnant by then.

sirensong · 15/07/2024 15:19

@Bambin0 unless it's an ultra early digital, 10 dpo probably won't show a positive.
