Yay for a positive OPK ladders! If it was just a small temp jump, you might see a bigger one tomorrow. What did your 7pm test look like? This cycle I had a nearly positive OPK at 6pm and very positive at 10pm.

Ladders - thanks for sharing your experience. I know my body is probably all over the place so I'm trying to just relax and wait for AF to show up. Easier said than done. I just want to get back in the game.

 

[SadakoS]

Yey Ladders! So pleased for positive opk!

 

[ricschick]

Cupcake it's normally 12 days it's just so frustrating that I ran out of opk if it's negative this cycle I'm going back to the normal ic opks as there's no mistaking with those! I hate not knowing! I may even temp🤔

 

[happycupcake]

I think temping is a good idea even if only for a few cycles, you get a much clearer idea of what's happening and when. I haven't bothered with the flashing OPKs since they confuse me, I always use the dipstick cheap OPKs, they have always been accurate for me.

I can't remember if I said but I'm having progesterone levels checked tomorrow, anyone know what the normal range is? I have read different things online. Also if there was an early pregnancy happening, would that alter the result or would it be pretty similar still?

 

[ladders]

Thanks ladies im so relieved!

Curious my test last night was dark but not as much as the control line and got a negative on digital. This morning it was super dark and positive digital. Thought I'd got a open cervix and checked again a few minutes ago and it's clearly open now and big difference to before so hopefully haven't o'd yet, we dtd last night but nice to get a couple in around o. Wasn't a massive jump from other temps but from the last few it was, I'll attach my chart

Rics I had the same last cycke and i read you can get a secondary oestrogen surge that produces ewcm and a dip in temp so maybe that's what it is?

Cupcake im sorry im not too sure about anything progesterone related

 

[curiousowl]

ladders, yeah, this cycle I have 2 days of + OPKs marked and like I said, the first day was only + around 10pm and I O'd sometime the next day when I was getting a + all day long. So that could be your situation, especially considering that was a small temp jump. Depending on what things look like tomorrow I could easily see FF putting your crosshairs on either day. Sounds like your timing is good regardless!

 

[curiousowl]

I am such a big advocate of temping! I can't recommend it enough.

 

[ladders]

No temp jump this morning so hoping for one tomorrow. Not sure how optimistic I am about getting another bd in tonight though 😕

 

[happycupcake]

Ladders, why?

 

[ladders]

Because we fall more into a naturally every other night dtd, obviously around ovulation i want everyday and I think dh feels pressured to perform. Cervix still open and no temp jump yet so I would like to try again for tonight and hoping I can disguise it as and anniversary dtd instead of a bd!

 

[happycupcake]

Ah ok I see. I reckon you can disguise it as an anniversary thing, how about taking him by surprise? This usually goes down well with my husband (pun completely intended)

 

[ladders]

Ha ha good idea I might try that lol, just praying to god I get a temp rise tomorrow! Come on little egg time to pop out now!

 

[happycupcake]

I reckon you will

 

[curiousowl]

I'm sure you will too ladders!

 

[curiousowl]

Afm, 12dpo and all symptoms have disappeared so I'm sure I'm out. At least I feel no urge to test now.

 

[curiousowl]

Sander, any news???

 

[ladders]

Ha ha thanks ladies wish me luck!

Curious I don't think that means your out, in fact when I conceived my dd that was the one tww I had no symptoms what so ever!

 

[SadakoS]

Curious, when I look back at my first ttc thread, I had literally no symptoms my successful cycle. I have nothing going on this time so I'm using that to make myself feel better.
Except that I had the WORST rage last night about really not much at all, I threw 2 remote controls across the room! Not like me to totally lose it like these but I just couldn't control myself, it was like I was watching myself and knew how ott I was being but could do nothing to stop it

 

[SadakoS]

Oh and I only have 6 IC and a digi so I'm really going to try and go easy on the testing this time. I'm not going to buy any more!
