    Back home again now, had an awesome time in Wales so hopefully I'm nice and relaxed in time for OV :cool:

    Had a tiny faint line on OPK, but I had the same when I tried them out right before AF so I'm taking it as a negative for now and waiting for it to get darker before arranging something with our donor :)

    Almost finished my first baby blanket, just finishing off the boarder, which is the annoying bit, might post a picture when it's done.

    Hi All. I've not been on for a while, so have some catching up to do. I think I probably ov'd last week some time. Not sure when as I don't seem to get much EWCM these days (though I suspect it's partly to do with not drinking enough). I have no idea if we're in with a chance this month but, if not, I have my pee pots for the Clearblue trial all ready to go when AF turns up. I'm looking forward to giving the CBFM a go, it'll be nice to have some idea of when/if I ov :o

    QQ, I hope that follicle is much bigger for your next appointment.

    Hugs to anyone in need.

    Well firstly having just read skint's posts my mood has dropped completely. Life is cruel and it's pi$$ing me off.

    Not to take anything anyway from you msnigella, congratulations.

    Does anyone have any idea as to why my IC OPK's would be getting really dark, then the next day invisible, then the next day back to almost positive? All the CB Digi ones have been very negative, but about half the IC's have been almost a +. I'm really confused. Had loads of EWCM today and yesterday so clearly going for a CD21 ov again.

    Just out of interest, what will they do if my levels of progesterone are low? (as they will be). Will they give me drugs to make me ovulate earlier? Or supplements? Or refer to me a FS? The GP didn't explain anything because I think she thinks my results will come back normal. A bit clueless really.

    Tea - All our babies-to-be must be having a shindig somewhere. How very rude of them.

    Bigbird, hope you won't get to play with CBFM and you caught it this month:p
    Best friend is due on Wednesday - gave her the stuff I bought for the baby last week as I didn't fancy dropping it round when I had AF lol! I don't begrudge her at all, but it would have felt awful dropping baby stuff round with such a stark reminder (to me, at least) that I have no need for it myself.
    (((Hugs))), it's not over yet:o

    No, but not getting my hopes up. This is why I like temping - I know not to waste pregnancy tests! :money:

    Anything lighter than the control line is a negative. There's always LH in our system. We are looking for a big surge.
    You are looking for a clear positive:cool:

    They may refer you to a FS, but they only do that after 1 year ttc, sometimes 2 years depending on which doctor you see:o

    Even if the blood test identifies a problem, they'll still wait until we've been TTC a year before they refer me? :eek::eek:
