    Hi Jo and welcome , yes af is cd1 :).

    Sorry for cd1 mogwai.

    I have had a positive OPK today so will hopefully be getting busy later :o. Slightly earlier than last month so think things are getting back to normal.

  • Well AF made it's appearance yesterday. Could I be updated to CD2please? Thanks Kellykins.

    On the plus side my LP was a day longer than last month so hopefully my body is getting back to normal after years of being pumped full of hormones.

    Welcome Jo!
  • Hugs for those that AF decided to show up.
    I have a question about these ovulation tests, the internet cheapy ones - at around cd 13 I started getting slight ovulation pain, one sided and change in mucus, lasted a few days. To me that sounds like ovulation, however each day I've done the ov tests and only had one line, not even a faint second line - does this mean I'm not ovulating or I'm doing it wrong or the tests are crap?! or should I just throw the tests out the window and just BD every few days?!

    I'm no expert on this but from what I understand there maybe one of two things (that I can think of!) happening.

    1) You could be misreading your symptoms and therefore you haven't ovulated yet. Last month I swore blind that I had ovulated and that the tests hadn't picked it up, but I kept using them and ended up getting a positive reading at CD18.

    2) You could have had your LH surge in between testings eg. your surge didn't last long and you missed it or perhaps it happened overnight.

    Either way, I would probably keep testing until your sure, and of course some bding won't hurt!

    Hugs to the recipients of AF :(

    Something weird happened last night. (TMI) had some CM when I wiped but it was streaked pink? Never had that before and I've not had it since?

    I'm guessing it's to do with AF (well, withdrawal bleed from coming off the Pill) which ended Friday but that's never happened before!

    Jazz - i used the cheap ones you can buy on amazon, i start to use them about cd12 as i ov quite late .
  • So I think I am late this month for my period. Normally im 28 days so that makes it Friday the 28th day. As I had a miscarriage in june my timings have all gone out and I have had a period after 4-6 weeks like they said and then a 27 day cycle. My periods for the whole year have been average 28 days. I am feeling nausea, boobs hurt but im not sure if that's my mind or period symptoms. I know its easier to take a test just don't want the disappointment of negative.. Its hard knowing how many days I am late with miscarriage happening. I also have my fertility appointment on Thursday to discuss what happened with baby b no 1 so maybe will wait till then. Sorry no question just a random see what people thought about pregnancy symptoms and period symptoms..
