I'd check they are filled in again chick cos even when my temp went up to nearly a 104 last month when i was ill it plotted it. xx

They're definitely filled in on my phone app, will try on my laptop later. Off for a shower now as need to.go to the shops for more tissues, ribena and paracetamol

another temp drop, another sleepless night, thats 3 in a row now, starting to feel so despondent.

i'm struggling a bit in rl cos of mil but have noone to talk about it to so think its affecting my sleep. I dreamt i was late getting her to her consultant appointment so they said they would not treat her now and would leave her to die

Hugs Ickle it's horrible when you don't sleep properly as lack of sleep does make things look bleak. It is natural to worry about mil and concerns always run round our heads at night when we try to switch off.

You did tell us it was a positive I think! Check your posts last night. It's not too late - ov is 12-36 hours after a positive test, or so QQ tells me. And we know QQ is always right.

I thought that when I read the post, but when I went back to check it was tinkwings who said she got a smiley.

I agree you may have had a short surge, and the tests missed it. I would assume that you did, and so could be ovulating today or tomorrow, to make sure you don't miss your chance this month. Your tests don't go negative after you have ovulated, but after the LH surge drops. So if you have a quick sharp surge, you could be positive for the first time on Monday morning, and negative at Monday lunchtime, but you still would be most likely to actually ovulate on Tuesday or Wednesday if that makes sense.

Fab! I'm covered for Sunday & today so if I jump him tonight we should be ok! I'll keep testing just in case but if it was a positive on Saturday night we had it covered lol.

Any news flee?

FF mystery solved, my temps for Sun/Mon showing in each day's data but still not plotted on my chart. I removed "fever" from the specifics and it plotted them, so I think it had automatically discarded them. It now thinks I've ov'd, but I don't think I have, so I'm going to remove them manually.

Morning all :wave:

How are things today BZ? Still bleeding? It's good that the Dr said not to worry, but not good that it hasn't stopped!

Nicki, good to hear that your fears about your DD have been lessened now, hope you're recovering after all the stress last week

Hugs to everyone with AF and suffering from cramps, have some chocolate and remind yourself that it *could* be your last AF for 9 months!

Dinner with my family on Friday was OK; my Mum picked up on how out-of-sorts I was feeling about SIL so was very good at gently steering the conversation away from babies. I think I must have taken it worse than I thought though as when I got home I was feeling very frowny then OH came home and snapped at me for something silly and I spent the next hour sobbing my heart out over it! Felt better on Saturday (and apologised to OH for being a wreck!), met the in-laws for a coffee and was making a joke about MIL wearing 'granny mittens' before she's even a grandma and FIL said, 'Well who's fault is that then?!' I felt like crying again... but just gritted my teeth and said, 'Surely it's up to the elder 2 brothers to provide the first babies' and glared at OH until he changed the subject!

QQ, could you put a * next to my name?! Let's hope it makes all the difference

Morning all :wave:

Hope everybody had a nice weekend - bigzippy hope the bleeding stops soon, what a horrible ordeal for you, but glad you got seen at the docs.

secrets :rotfl: at checking ewcm in the pub. I am exactly the same, doesn't matter where I am but I just don't want to miss anything!

Not sure what is going on with me - the last two cycles I have ov'd on about day 16, it's now day 17 and no signs of OV other than a tiny amount of stretchy cm on Saturday morning. I have been taking EPO (1000mg per day) and wondering if that might be delaying ovulation? Also been taking cough syrup but haven't seen a massive increase in cm.

We DTD on Friday morning and on Sunday evening, so hope we have it covered if anything happened over the weekend. OPKs all negative, will keep testing and try to DTD every second day (realistically I don't think we'll manage every day).

Thanks to whoever recommended the great sperm race - I watched it online this weekend - really interesting and I actually learned lots, like how long it takes the little swimmers to complete their journey!

Hugs to all and hope this week is a good one with lots of BFPs

ladies, i'm being very lazy as google is not my friend this morning it seems...
does anyone know where that chart is that shows the accuracy of early tests compared to testing when period is missed? it's something like at 10 DPO 60% got their bfp, 11 DPO 70%

...not that i've got my hopes up cos AF hasn't arrived and (tmi) the sides of my vagina feel really hard/engorged, like an erect penis, can barely get my finger past to feel my cervix, which is still high and soft
...no hopes, none at all x x

the chart posted shows 10% standard positive, and FF also says around 10% positive for 10dpo.

So if youre definitely not out yet if youre only that far through the 2ww!
