@PeanutButter so so sorry that’s sad news .. stay strong , even know it’s hard . Hugs to you.


@RainbowMama , wow that’s a convincing BFP!! Aren’t they bizarre? I’ve never needed to test like this until recently , so Had no idea of all the false evap lines you could get. I’ve either had a blatant neg, or positive. So this is all new territory! Very stressful. I never know what to believe anymore good luck this cycle glad you caught your ov day! xxxx

@Clarkecharm sorry to hear this , not very helpful for you is it. No advice, but hope you get sorted

@PeanutButter This just breaks my heart for you! Will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Miscarriages are so heartbreaking.

Hi sorry so behind trying to update here.
I got a high fertility flashing face on opk on Friday and Saturday and a static face 'peak' yesterday so we dtd last night before Felix woke up as yesterday and today are the 2 best days apparently and only time we have managed to this cycle in the fertile window and our first month propey trying. Not expecting anything as we had IVF last time but we're unexplained and 2 of my ivf buddies from my clinic are naturally pregnant and one is due baby 2 next month so there's always hope but trying once isn't great but better than nothing. We will probably be back at IVF clinic but not going till spring 2022 once we have saved a bit up !

Can you put me down for testing 10th August ? AF due 8th or 9th but my cycles only been back 3 months and each mo th has been different but I feel its just trying to regulate but I am still reast feeding -Felix is 17 month now andnits our 7th wedding anniversary today !

Good luck everyone !

Sorry @PeanutButter , I've had 1 mc and it broke my heart. Sending put lots of love. Be kind to yourself

@LuckyLaura my birthday 4th Aug day after your wee one. I have no idea why I am back here trying naturally but nothing to loose while we save up for more IVF and only just got my periods back 3 months ago so this is really the first month we have tried as such. I am just dreading that feeling coming back with af arrives month after month. I'm trying to not get all serious about it and just try when we can when I have a positive clearblue opk and see what happens! I'm hoping maybe something has changed since my pregnancy

Tell me about it! I love the tests but they’re constantly giving me quite convincing lines, this ones definitely one of the top 3 worst false positives I’ve had though! Hope you’re doing well sweetie.

What opks do you all use. I have just been using clear blue. Previously before my ivf I used the cheaper test straps. I'm not wanting to BBT chart just yet. We are trying the rest of this year before looking go try more ivf for baby 2

@Alexis2017 ive just used some internet cheap strips they’ve been ok so far. Can’t remember the name now. But it was like a box of 50.

Just search on eBay and read the reviews of the person selling x

Anyone else losing weight to help with ttc?
Finally in the 12s after losing nearly 4 stone another 2 to go though feels like so much still I've been running daily (except when I found out I was preg then gonna wait until after my mc has ended)
I tried boogie bounce but omg I kept pissing myself... Having the kids ruined my pelvic floor haha
anyone have any tips to make it easier/lose it faster? Before DD finished for the holidays I was walking 4 miles a day to, to take and get her from school.

 

[Sugar10]

@Clarkecharm , I’m not trying to lose weight to ttc, and I’d only like to lose a stone really , but that’s just for myself as I was a stone lighter a year ago.
Well done for losing 4 stone though that’s really impressive. I just haven’t been as active as been off work due to health reasons, but hoping it’ll shift now I’m busier , and school holidays with the kids will keep me busy! good luck

 

[Sugar10]

How is everyone?
Nearly testing time! (As if some of us haven’t been tasting randomly already haha)

I’m on cd 20, 6 or 7 DPO.

let’s see some bfps this month

Girls I need your help…

do you think this is my peak or could it get darker?
I’m just so tired, my back is killing me and I really don’t think I’ve got it in me to try tonight. We did last night and will again tomorrow. But don’t want to lose my chance either

 

[Sugar10]

@PeanutButter Thankyou. Hope you’re doing ok.

@Clarkecharm it looks like a peak to me? I’m sure missing a day inbetween yesterday and tomorrow wouldn’t miss your chance. good luck .

Definitely peak! I would say you have it covered with yday and tomorrow.
Back ache is a good sign of oving I get it quite badly when I ov x

 

[Clarkecharm]

Thankyou so much ladies I could kiss you! I’ve never felt so lethargic. I swear these tabs are working xx

 

[Cookie517]

Can I have some advice please ladies?

On CD12, I had EWCM and ovulation pains but no LH peak. Today is CD17 and I've got EWCM and ovulation pains.

I've got some new Easy@Home LH test strips and they're different to normal! Think I may have a dodgy batch because they barely show any LH detected at all whereas I normally have at least a 0.2/0.3 daily.

What do I assume? I dunno what to do and it's making me really anxious about missing my peak!

I think maybe you’re trying to ovulate again! So I wouldn’t rule anything out lovely xxx
