    Keekee that's fantastic news, congratulations!!! Def gives the rest of us some hope lol. Totally normal to feel cautious, but this is a completely new & different pregnancy, everything crossed for you for a happy & healthy 9 months.

    Still no sign of the witch & a bit more spotting today, although it's brown this time (was pink yday). Normally I only spot a little bit maybe a few hours before AF actually arrives. Based on my normal cycle length, AF isn't due until tomorrow/Thurs, but I oved a lot earlier this month, so I think I'm about 15-16dpo. Longest lp I've had before was 12. Trying to keep calm & not read too much into it.

    Just popping back to say congratulations Kee Kee! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months!

    Hope everyone is well and hoping to see more BFPs soon :) xxx
  • Fantastic new Keekee, that's so good to hear.

    Meanwhile my OPKs have gone a bit odd this month - still on the flashing smiley face though by all rights I should have ovulated yesterday or the day before. I re-used last month's reader stick, and haven't been doing every day - would that affect the accuracy of the test?

    And on a topic we discussed a few pages ago, I went back to check what time of day to use the CBD OPK and it says first urine after longest sleep, so first thing in the morning. Which is good, as that's what I've been doing!

    Hey firebird - reusing stick should be fine I did that a few times. Every other day does risk having missed it as the levels may the taper off again and if you'd got a static you'd have stopped testing, but I don't know how likely that is.

    How many flashing have you had?

    And congrats kee kee! Hope to see you on the other thread soon xx

    Just checked and my first flashing was last Wed, and I've tested every day since Fri, so unlikely to have missed it I think. Maybe tomorrow is the day...
