Can i be in the If in doubt zone please.
AF stopped yesterday. England won! - it was a good night ha ha
I'm going to be using OPK's for the first time this cycle (got them after completing the clear blue trial)
When is best to start POAS?0 -
I.m sure SMEP says to start at day 10. I had amazon cheapies so started around then even though I knew from previous months I would get a positive day 15.
Ended up doing a couple of tests a day.0 -

Good to hear lots of graduated are lurking and had good experiences with conceive plus or similar. Hophop, yes I have my OPK’s from the trial to use now. I have used conceive plus on a previous cycle earlier in the year with no success, I can’t remember if it used it in conjunction with OPK’s or not that time.
HappyLassie13, the CB OPK’s should have a leaflet inside with a table that tells you when to start POAS. If it hasn’t you can google it. It depends on how long your cycle usually is as to when it advises to start. The SMEP says to start on day 10. As we got given so many sticks for free I am going to start on CD10 as per SMEP (based on my cycle length CB says around CD12 and I know last time I ovulated on CD21 but no worries about the cost of them this time so I’d rather by cautious).
Looks like AF has left me today, I will prob have a little spotting for another day or 2. All set for BDing from CD8!0 -
Sorry if this is TMI..
For the past couple of days I have just had like browny stringy discharge. Would this class as CD1? It’s not a proper period as such, no fresh blood… Usually I go from 0-heavy in about an hour so I am not sure whats going on at the moment or how to track my cycle against this!
Cramps are no different from usual.0 -

I have discharge similar to that on some cycles BusyBargainz. I counted this as spotting and only counted CD1 once my period started properly.0
