Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 13

Selement, you are more patient than most! Good luck for when you do test

AF left me on Monday and Ovia is predicting fertile window 5-10th but that's with not much to go on. He is probably away for a few days that week with work but we'll see what happens. I've stocked up on a few AF supplies so I'm prepared. I wouldn't normally until just before I'm due but I'm not expecting to be as regular as I was when I was on the patch.

I caved.
Negative, but it’s obviously not FMU and a day before I’m due so I’m not out yet.

I also caved! Mine was fmu but still a big fat nothing! If AF comes tomorrow (as predicted) I am going to buy myself something so as to not feel as downhearted!

Afoolandhermoney - I have added you to the graduate list now, I hope that is ok I didn't want to do it without your say so but I noticed you have been posting on the less than 12 weeks pregnant board so I took lead from that

KatieBee123 - hmm I'm not sure when you would have ovulated. Definitely one of the two days, I'm thinking maybe the first? or overnight.

Good luck to all your ladies waiting for AF and testing. I am crossing my fingers our february BFP doesn't take long to arrive

Nothing to report here. Just waiting for our fertile window, we have a week before that hits.

8 DPO for me.

Being off the pill for the first time in 13 years is a learning curve in itself. I am so miserable and emotional! Angry at everything, had a right go at husband last night for absolutely nothing, even slept in spare bed.

Woke up starving but convinced I'm not pregnant. AF due sometime between next Tuesday and Saturday. Ovia telling me to test Sunday night.

KatieBee123

PKK - yeh I!!!8217;m gunna go with overnight I think, can I be moved to the two week wait and see what happens from there? Hoping we BD!!!8217;d enough within the fertile window 4 times during the 6 days Ovia gave me but could be less depending on the day of ov because if I change that from the 30th to the 29th my window shifts so who knows! I will play the waiting game now!

Everyone I!!!8217;m also confused, now I!!!8217;m in the two week wait, I wanted to know the earliest I could test, being impatient as I am! So some sites suggest 7-10 past ov while others say it takes 7-10 day for the egg to each the womb and then implant, which one would give you a negative result if egg is still travelling through your tubes right?

I also find the internet stressful with some !!!8220;experts!!!8221; saying sperm last for 3 days, 5 days etc when I had my coil out the doctor told me up to 7 days
I mean how is a girl supposed to know what source is correct about these things? About, sperm, eggs, ovulation, testing oh my god, the stress

As you can see in an over thinker!

Good luck for the testing girls, hopefully the negatives were just because it was a bit early! Hoping for your BFPs!

Trying - when did you count ovulation the day of a positive opk or the day after the positive opk? Or did you not do opks at all? Xx

Tryingin2018

Honestly the opks didn't work for me - never got dark enough. I've counted it from day after I ovulated. The reason I think I ovulated was 12 hours of cramps on right hand side, EWCM for 3 days and I believe I had ovulation bleeding too for one wipe!

Ordered some internet cheapie pregnancy tests but fear I may get obsessed with POAS!!

PrettyKittyKat

KatieBee - the reading I have done says to wait until the day after your AF is due for the most accurate, and some early pregnancy tests can be done 5/6 (can't remember exactly) days before this. I would recommend checking the individual test details to see how sensitive they are. Waiting as close to AF as possible is best. Ovia I think always puts that you should test 12dpo and the SMEP says to do it 15dpo.
