February Testing Thread **Fabulous February BFP's!**

Yay Mrs Bridge!

I’m 2-3DPO today x

Ohhhh I’m not looking forward to the 2ww this time! I’m CD15 so the fact the clear blue ovulation test has a flashing smiley I was a bit hmmmm as I usually ovulate much later in my cycle. I did my cheapie today and that has had a massive jump too so I may test again this evening :poas:


I know how hard it can be I am currently working two part time jobs one of which when things get off the ground running will be my own business but under the umbrella of a travel company hence why it’s not so go at the moment @RainbowMama

Sorry to hear about the travel company, I can imagine how hard COVID has hit the business. :( Hopefully you’ll see that peak soon! I need a two week wait buddy!

I’ve set up a messenger TTC group if anyone would like to join, just PM me your details and I’ll add you to the chat.
 
Please add me for February 23rd, good luck to everyone this month

Ahhh I don’t use Facebook or I would be so up for that. I am starting to think that Premom isn’t very good it says yesterday’s test was peak and I keep getting different results every time when I take a picture x
 
I’ll add you K M, Good luck!

Mrsbridge, Maybe I’ll just set up a what’s app group instead, haha! I wouldn’t rely on an app to read lines and tell you you’ve got a peak, post the photo here love. X
 
I still chuckle at my ticker and my gingerbread man, my partner is ginger so it tickles me to see my gingerbread man on my ticker!
 
@bellecat, Are you symptom spotting? Anything to report yet? I’m getting the exact same symptoms as my last cycle which ended in BFP & Miscarriage. Hoping and praying it’s another BFP (third in a row) and a successful pregnancy this time and a super super sticky bean.
 
@RainbowMama no it’s definitely not a peak it’s certainly getting there though. I like the app as it gives me a rough idea when I’ll ovulate and then updates on the results I put in. I’ve ordered some nice bits from boux Avenue to spice things up a bit as although our love life is healthy I thought it might help things along a bit as we are both working so hard at the moment it’s tiring ttc and working x
 
Hiya everyone, I'd like to join in this month.

My periods are a a bit wonky so not exactly sure when I'm due so I'll say the 10th February, that should be a good time.

Welcome @xphoenix good luck! Rainbow will be along soon and add you on the list x
 
@Mrsbridge17, The progress is good though - hopefully not long before the peak. I find Fertility Friend honestly more reliable and accurate, I tried all the cycle tracking apps at one point and still preferred FF. I’ve never heard of Boux Avenue, I might have to look into it!
I actually read someone not long ago about the stress of TTC makes us women a little drier and that is the biggest cause of infertility - I’ll try and find the research again x



@xphoenix, Welcome along. You’re more than welcome to join, the more the merrier. I’ll add you down for the 10th. Good luck!



Off topic - But has anyone done OPK's during their two week wait? I thought LH was very low in the two week wait. Apparently, mine isn't. :doh::rotfl:

For those that know me - I'm a very pro POAS advocate. :brat:

For absolute years I use the 'One Step' ovulation tests (and HPT's). I have recently discovered just how good the 'Easy@home' brand is. Thought I'd give them a try.

Considering I am 4DPO, I am surprised I am 'high' fertility. I thought after ovulation the LH surge was very minimal. Unless I am gearing up to ovulate which I don't usually have a second crack at.

I've also done a baseline HCG test so when the time comes - I know that their tests don't suffer the evil evaps, indents and dye runs that the one steps do.

Here's a photo of my 4DPO LH test.

I recommend these over the one step OPK's any day! Glad I've found these. :brat:

For anyone who is interested and on Facebook, I've created a TTC group chat, quicker replies than on a forum, give me a PM if you'd like to join. :)

Baseline HCG took a turn for the worse... I see a damn line on it. :rotfl: HCG3.jpg

Hey lovely i use one step ovulation kit i get 50 for 6.49 on ebay. And they work fine for me. And i enter the photo into premom. I do one on a morning around 10/11 and then one on an evening around 5/6 around the week of ovulation and then just one a day prior and it tracks really well on the app
 
Ugh - Just done a FRER. I see a line on that too - What is going on with my cycle? I should only be 4DPO!

I just find there is hardly any dye in them x
 
Can I throw my hand in on the feb testing thread please ladies,

I haven’t actually been ttc but gone down the ‘not trying not preventing’ route instead from the beginning of jan, I don’t think I actually have any chance this month, dtd on CD10 which I know was far too early, and CD19 which I think will be too late, I think I ovulated on CD18, I sneaked an ovulation test on CD18 as I had ewcm and pains, and it was a clear positive, but I don’t know if it was a positive on the way up or on the way down if you see what I mean,

even though I don’t think I have a chance this month what else is there to do in this lockdown other then obsess about whether you are pregnant or not so I am joining in for something to do :rotfl::rotfl:

I will be testing 3rd feb if AF doesn’t get me before then
 
Welcome along!
Typically you’ll ovulate 12-36 hours after your first positive OPK, and I think the egg can survive up to 12 hours - so you’re still in with a chance!
I’ll add you to the list - I think the 3rd is also my testing date!
