    hi fraz babe and welcome to the thread. Hope your stay is short.

    opks are positive when the test and control lines are the same or the test line is darker. You have 12-36 hours from your first positive to ovulation so thats your cue to bd like a mad thing.

    afm bleeding and cramping stopped again. I now officially have no idea what my body is doing.

    I hate this job so much. The place is full of numpties. I am actually looking forward to an internal scan as it least it means I can leave before 4pm.

    I can totally sympathise. About the work thing that is, although I get that ANY excuse to leave early is a blessing! Hang in there hun!

    Hey everyone!

    Hello Fraz and welcome!

    Hugs to everyone who is out this month :kisses3:

    Just popped on to say hi, nothing to report. 10DPO for me, not feeling very positive even though I've no reason not to, i'll find out this weekend if AF shows up!

    Where is all the August BFP's? Surely we're due some around here!! :D
  • Afternoon all! Hugs to anyone who needs one. Not sure how I'm feeling today. CD18. No EWCM for the last couple of months. I've also been trying OPK's this week and they are all negative. I think maybe I'm all empty of eggs. Not sure what to do now. X

    Hi girls:wave:

    amyloofoo, yay on your MIL:j
    And yay for starting ttc seriously!:j
    elsie and Birdie, massive hugs for AF:(
    smiley_hug.gif
    Holche, (((hugs))). You can start TTC as soon as the bleeding stops (but not before). No bathing or swimming while you are bleeding.
    mrsj28, (((hugs))) for PCOS. You are all sorted now that the doctor has seen you, let's get pg by Christmas:)
    TeamLowe, if the sperm count is low, then it is recommended to BD every other day rather than every day or twice a day:cool:
    Sperms needs to swim in numbers so that one could reach the egg:o
    Fraze babe, welcome:wave:
    I've added you to the list on the first page, let me know if you'd like things changed or add your age:)

    As for CBFM, is it new? It needs to be set at CD1-5 (CD1 is the 1st day of full flow red AF) by pressing the m button continuously until it shows the right CD number.

    It has to be set in the morning when you'll usually test.
    I usually press the m button at 8:30am so that I could test from 5:30am-11:30am (weekends). It gives you 3hrs either side.

    It can't be set later than CD5. But if you want to use it now anyway, and if you have long cycles, then I'd just set it to 5 and start using the sticks from CD6:p

    You pee for 3 secs on the CBFM stick first thing in the morning, put the cap on, then turn CBFM on, and stick the stick in (the end with the corner cut), and wait while the machine flashes for few minutes. When it's finished, take the stick out. If you missed when it finished, then just turn the machine back on, and take the stick out:)

    PS. Make sure you pee on the non shiny side of the wick.
    PPS. Stop testing once you get your Peak (3 bars), as the machine stops reading the sticks at that point and gives you another Peak, High then Low automatically:money:

    There is no way this can be a + test so it can only be an evap line. Superdrug own brand test for anyone's information. sevtic.jpg
