I can never hold out past 8 DPO (sometimes 7). I'm such a POAS addict.

Good luck to you!

I hate seeing bfns so want to put it off as long as possible. When I got a bfp last year, I didn't test until 15dpo and the line was good but wasn't really dark so I reckon it would have been a real squinter a few days before. I want to see a line, a proper line.

Also, my temps are quite good at dropping when cycle is coming to an end, so I usually know around 12dpo.

Hi ladies , I'm In Af due around 13th x

Good luck, I'm going to try and hold off testing until maybe 12dpo..

Hi everyone. AF due on May 7th. I'm CD21 of a 26 day cycle. Not sure when ovulated. If at all. Been on cerazette couple years and altho periods came back straight away. Unsure if ovulation returned properly. Been having unprotected sex since Christmas. Anyway estimated 10 dpo. BFN. Yesterday I was having lots of symptoms right back to week after my period. All symptoms disappeared now. . Suppose got few more days. Frustrating waiting . Good luck everyone xxx

Hi :wave: can I join too?

I'm on CD 4, last cycle was only 21 days so not sure how long this one will be as I had no AF for around 6 years due to mirena after DD1 so I've started temping this month and will try OPKs as well to see what's happening.

Bfn today at 12/13dpo.
However, I'm still hoping for a May bfp as next cycle I'll be around 13dpo on 31st May. Maybe my final natural cycle, as IVF referral is now underway.

Hey y'all. AF due 5/2-5/4. Having quite a few symptoms but this is my first cycle really trying to I have been symptom spotting. Terrified to test lol. Thinking I might hold out until Friday if the witch doesn't show. So nervous!

 

[Apple111]

Hi ladies , sorry for bfn ell , not over yet im really trying to chill this cycle.. We have been trying shettles method last three cycles with no luck ,, dtd 3 days b4 ov. I thought we would try a bit different this cycle so where as b4 we have dtd quite a lot then stopped 3days b4 od.. This time we held off for a week and dtd once 3 days b4 ov then we thought might as well throw o+ 12 on as well lol.. So I'm pretty sure I know when i ov as I get sharp pains and I used loads of opks this month.. So we will see , we were only swayibg for fun anyway as have 3 boys but not really bothered as long as it's a healthy baba of course

We will see ha x going to test next Thursday I think x I'll be 12dpo.. Fingers crossed for us all this month !! X and hope we get some BFPs this time as last month wasn't great x

Apple xx

AF due May 11/12th. Really anxious this month and driving myself crazy with TWW symptom hunting. BD on cd 13 & 14, O on cd 14 or 15. Hoping it will finally happen but, losing faith.This is my first post, after reading others for more than a year....

Welcome Paislee!

Think I might O on CD12/13 instead of Cd14/15 based on OPKs. I anticipate a pos OPK tonight based on a quite dark OPK this morning. Wondering if it's all the supps I'm taking in action. Regardless, I'll get in more BD. Then, bring on the TWW!

 

[bumbleberry]

Good luck TTC74, I hate the TWW, so much second guessing and waiting

I'm not sure when I'm going to ovulate (due to short cycle last month) so I'm using two apps Ovia & FF for monitoring and OPKs starting yesterday and checking temps, CM etc. Ovia says I'll ovulate next week but FF says this weekend

 

[TTC74]

Wow! After a blazing pos OPK yesterday afternoon, I had a Neg OPK this morning. Ive got to catch those pos OPKs super fast! So, O will be today for sure! We'll dtd one more time today but dh's swimmers don't reginerate super fast) they're optimal after at least 3 days of abstinence). So, last night was our best chance. It looks like I'll be in the TWW tomorrow. Woohoo!

 

[Ali33]

AF still hasn't reared her ugly head but I tested today and BFN. I am guessing it is just going to be late this month. Buying OPKs today to make sure I am ovulating!

 

[TTC74]

I'm loving my chart so far. I never get such a significant temp shift. Plus, I had tons of EWCM (which is unusual for me) and increased drive during the fertile window. Fx super tight.
