    Wegle that's a positive.

    You want to try to bd in the lead up to ov as the egg only sticks around 24 hours so if you bd the day before a positive that's perfect timing. I'd want to bd then, the day of the positive, and one day after. Anything else would be a bonus!

    If you have irregular cycles and don't know when you're likely to get a positive you can use the clear blue digi advanced sticks so you get a high before a positive so you know when to start.

    If you're regular you could just work this out.

    Thanks Claire! We'll we managed to BD at 3 days before the positive, the day before the positive, day of positive, and the day after. Going to try and entice hubby for one more today just to be sure. FF is giving us a high score for timing so fingers crossed! My cycles have been pretty much regular 25 days since I came off the pill last year, and OV on CD11 would tie in with this, hopefully things stay that way!

    Mouthscradle - got my fingers tightly crossed for your LP being longer this cycle.

    Kellykins - when you do the lists could I please be updated to CD12 1DPO on Sunday 6 April, many thanks. Xx

    Hello.

    Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend.

    Still nothing to report here, can't believe I'm at day 73! I honestly thought this cycle would be about the same length as last time which was 43 days but I was wrong!:(

    also feel :( as my Granddad has been in hospital so I've been visiting and every time I go I've walked passed people taking their newborns home or people with new baby balloons and presents going to visit people and it feels like it won't be me any time time soon.

    Hugs for those who need one.

    Seventh Anniversary
    hi could i be update to cd 2 please, af came yesterday, really hit me bad this month :'( arghhhhh! why cant things be easy!
  • Morning folks. I'm now on cd16 and 3dpo and having awful tummy cramps, lower backache and horrendously emotional, which is very unusual for me. I'm really trying not to SS but its so hard to ignore it qhen we're trying so hard to get somewhere! We've used conceive + this month for the first time so here's hoping! I don't know how many more bfn's I can handle :(
  • Fingers crossed tricky-Vik!!

    Afm. I too my last clomid tablet this cycle on Saturday night, hasn't been too bad, had quite a few hot flushes & a bad headache the whole time but hoping that will subside now. Last night & this morning g I've been having some crampy ovary pains so hoping it's doing what it's meant to do! Go back on Wednesday for a scan to see what's happening but think I'll do ov tests up to then incase I ov early, that'd be just my luck!!

    Hugs to all!! x

    Morning all,

    Just a quick check in from me to say I'm now on CD10 as AF arrived about 4 days late - strange cycle last month but hoping it will be more on track this cycle.

    Back to work today after a week off so lots to do but will catch up with you all more soon.

    Hugs

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Hugs ThinkPink ... Long cycles must be a nightmare :(

    Hugs Linz4383 & Gelly123 for AF :(

    Nothing to report here - getting all the symptoms for AF so I expect her this week :(

    It is really hard when you try at all the right times and it doesn't happen. I am hoping the step back next month might help as you can't help but ss.

    Anyone due to test (not that I am encouraging) :o
