Thanks for adding me, gutted when AF arrived but focussing on next cycle. Thinking I may buy an ovulation kit, has anyone had any luck and if so which ones???

Rtuff · 09/04/2009 10:41

I started using OPK'S last month, had no positive last month, i'm on day 15 now and still no positive, think i may just give up with them as they're making me stress...

But it may just be that i'm not ovulating....

Let us know how you get on with them...

RTuff

You sure you're not CD16 today? Don't want to offend you or be a know-all, but we are cycle buddies, and were both CD1 on Wed 25 March. Anyway, whatever the OPK says if you are wet and/or have EWCM then go for gold!

EffieGadsby · 09/04/2009 10:58

I'm reassured to see a couple of positive stories from people who have been in similar situations to me. I'm just so baffled at it not being PCOS. My new GP seems really nice, and I'm hoping I will get referred to a specialist now that the tests for my crazy menstrual cycle all seem normal - we'll see what she says. At least one positive aspect about having the bizarre cycles is that GP is interested in investigating straight away, rather than being made to wait for a year of failing to conceive.

Rtuff · 09/04/2009 11:08

Your right, i forgot to count Wed 25th!! I rekon thats the way to go forget the OPK's and go for it with EWCM which is today... so looks like were down to it tonight! Just out of curiosity have you ovulated yet?

OP posts:
Rtuff · 09/04/2009 11:12

Hold on......
Just done an ovulation test and it come up nearly as dark as the other line... thats promising! Maybe i'll do another one later on this evening and see what happens...

It sounds complicated to me, but have oredered some clear blue strips from ebay! Oh have fun tonight Rtuff and donttrythisathome

Blocka · 09/04/2009 13:39

Hi all and welcome Alfiesmadmother - I sat next to you on the December bus, sorry you have had to get off!

About OPKs. I bought the digital one, and to be honest, it saved alot of grief. Tested every morning from day 10 and got a smiley face on day 15 of a 28 cycle. It was expensive (£17), but worth the money, I thought.

My last set of hpg tests I got from ebay, about £5 incl delivery for 10 - and they are extra extra sensitve. Fingers crossed I (and all of you!) will get a return this month!

donttrythisathome · 09/04/2009 15:13

Thanks Alfie!

Effie - a good doc makes all the difference. My nurse last week was lovely and helpful.

RTuff - I still have EWCM and positive OPK yesterday so will probably ov today or tomorrow. More BDing tonight then.

Maria - My advice is if you have EWCM then go for it

sgibbo · 09/04/2009 16:46

Marla - a bit late for what? If ov then 10-16 days between ov and end of cycle is average - so if you ov today or tomorrow, then that would be an average cycle, not late

I had a row with DP as well last night as he's accusing me of treating him like a performing monkey. Feck orf says I to him....

Blocka · 10/04/2009 15:05

Snap! I made my DP wake me up at midnight when he came in from his shift to do the deed - he said it wasn't great because we went straight into in with no foreplay (foreplay, I thought?! Must of missed that the last time.....)

Marla poor you! My "bible" says feck the OPKs, just BD when you have EWCM, so if its still there and you feel ok then go for it.

CC - agree with you!! I had a good talk with DP (once I'd calmed down) and explained how much I'd been building up to ov, and think he understands better now....I hope....

marla- I agree with don'ttry just go for it today. Only god knows if you're too late but worth trying
hope - that sounds good that he understands your frustration. My dh says not sure about jan as will be similar birthday as him!!!

donttrythisathome · 11/04/2009 11:07

CC - LOL at DH and wanting to keep his birthday to himself. I'd be like that!!

I was a bit reluctant to discuss it all in detail with DP as I didn't want to turn him off. I'm going to make sure I jump him during the rest of the month too though, although often exhausted, as I don't want the clinical timing to kill our sex life....

Higglepig · 11/04/2009 14:03

Sgibbo - sorry, been offline for a couple of days. Wasn't actually thinking of testing til next weekend (have a v long cycle). AF due Sunday but was going to do a pre-hen night test on Sat. What about you, are you testing this weekend?

sgibbo · 11/04/2009 15:41

ccpink · 11/04/2009 16:45
