    I think its 12-36 hours. That's on the basis that the length of time depends to an extent on the time of day you test IYSWIM. In other words if you had a surge you would get a smiley whether you posted at 9am or 9pm on the same day, but you'd still ov at the same time whichever.


    Yeah, I know what you mean, my monitor gives the same kind of explanation in the instructions.

    Best of luck and hope you get the result you want in a couple of weeks :D

  • Well, fellow TTCers, another hurdle hurdled (is that a word?) - well jumped over, anyway.:rotfl: :rotfl:

    The scan went well, my little fat follicle is fatter, and the egg collection is booked:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: for MONDAY :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: - it was a little fatter than expected!!! So the good news is I wont be hosting a halloween party after a GA, but if all goes well, it will be on the day of embryo transfer, so I wont be doing much!!!!!

    So I get to do my HCG at 12.45 Sunday morning - decided after much discussion with the change in the clocks - and NIL by mouth from midnight Sunday night, then leave at 8am Monday morning after dropping DS to friends to take him to football - get to the clinic for 10.15 with proedure booked for 10.45.

    The next hurdle is for the follicle to still be intact, there is a chance that I may ovulate before they do egg collection because of no drugs to prevent it - and then the usual, will it fertilise etc. Will let you all know when I know - nice not to be on my own!!!!!

    Good luck to you all and thanks for your support
    Love and hugs, Lilo

    Hope all goes well on monday Lilo.


    I'm in a bad mood tonight :mad: Got a peak on the monitor on weds morning. It says I should ov around 24-36 hours later so we BD'd thurs morning (used pre seed for first time) and was going to again tonight (again using pre seed) but I'm not feeling very well at all. Upset tummy :o

    Its really annoyed me because I felt so positive about this month when I got the peak status on the monitor.

    Oh well......November is another month :rotfl:

    I'm probably just setting myself up for another disappointment, but after thinking maybe I had an implantation pain yesterday, today has been a really strange day. I suddenly felt very unwell eating lunch, and have had a very off tummy all afternoon. Also been very very tired and actually slept for 3 hours this afternoon without meaning too, which is also most unlikely. I'm on CD 20, and I think either 6 or 7dpo.

    Trying not to get my hopes up, but this does feel a bit familiar...
  • Well, I thought Id catch up with you all - and noone has been on here!!!!

    I m sitting here thinking I ought to go to bed - after my bath - seeing as its nil by mouth fairly soon.

    This is not going to plan, I have everything sorted with DS for tomorrow - and his asthma is playing up badly, he has a temp of 38.5 and his puffers are giving little relief - oh what fun we are having!!!! He is supposed to be at Arsenal Football School with his friend - but Im not sure I can leave him with my friend to take him if hes like this - will either have to take him with me or leave him with MIL whose 86 and hasnt the faintest idea that we are going though IVF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAHHHHHHGGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    Thats better - we will cope somehow I am sure!!!

    night night LIlo
