    CD20, High on CBFM at last...:whistle:

    :shocked:

    Nope...
    Do you know if you catched ov last cycle?

    i think i did - it was the first time i had used to OPK and i bought them from Tesco and on the 4th day it was darker but we only dtd once so was not expecting anything positive

    can i just ask because i cannot get my head around the whole testing thing - if your cycles arent the same do you go off the last cycle? eg 30 days start testing from day 13
    as this time my cycle was 2 days shorter so i start testing from day 11 now do you all just start testing from that day and when you get a positive reading on the OPK leave it until the next cycle or do you carry on?
    ive just ordered some more OPK from the internet and they are going to send me a fertility chart to help me along

    is it just me or is all this confusing? as i said its the first time charting so maybe after a couple of months i will get the hang of it

    NO BFN YET! we must all be hibernating cos its freezing and its the last thing on my mind what with all the xmas shopping to be done

    Well the witch is really giving me hell. normally i only use about 3 or 4 pads the whole time it here. and only mainly panty liners and it only last a couple day's. well i'm using about 2 pads an hour, and i'm in so much discomfort. it even woke me up in the night which never happens, cause i had so much loss. can't wait to see the back of this one. then hopefully ( being extremely positive) i won't have another because i'll be preg,lol.

    Oh Jcr it sounds dreadful. :( Hope it'll be over and done with soon. I have the opposite problem. My Afs are ridiculously light. Only last 2 days and I barely need a panty liner for the whole time. Googled it the other day - MISTAKE - dreadful horror stories that I won't pg because of it. I'd feel like such an idiot if I went back to the docs again tho. Only went 3 months ago coz I didn't have any at all since coming off the pill. Decided to try not to worry about it too much till the NY and if no better, I'll go back to the quacks.

    You should go to the GP, they usually give you BCP to reset your cycle back to normal. Are you sure you didn't have miscarriage? In which case, it's normal:o

    i didn't even o last month according 2 ff? other wise i might have thought the same.
    my doctors are truely rubbish i went there after a mc i had earlyer this year and thay were no help, dont really wana take bc.
    thank you for replying QQ

    it would appear neither DH nor I are carriers so that means our chances of a healthy baby next time, are the same as everyone else pratically
    Glad you are not carriers:)
    Also found out I was expecting a blue bundle, which is bitter sweet. I miss him,
    (((Hugs))):(
    I hope and pray the next bean will be heallthy and sticky. Debs mantra of I lost my baby, I want my baby, is going round in my head.
    It will be, don't worry:)
    Dont know how long AF will take to come, but apparently you can get PG before
    Hope you get pg straight away:j
    Im not very positive at the moment, feel like its not gonna happen and to top it off think hubby getting bored with the whole thing. The irony is when we decided to try for one a year ago he was more up for being a parent than me, i was unsure but now i really want one!
    Get your PMA back up! You need it to get pg:j

    You should go by shortest possible cycle dates for opk in order not to miss the surge. Once you get a positive, there's no need to test.

    It is confusing:o I think of it as my new hobby:whistle:

    If it's with cheapy IC opks, then CD8?
    Do you have longish cycles?

    I test with IC Opks from CD10, CBFM from CD12.
    CBFM asks for the sticks from CD6-9.
