Cd 1 of cycle #3 TTC#1

[Babylove100]

Me too!! Happy Friday to you!!! I'm out with my mum tonight so not sure when I'll get home so may miss tonight's bd, but at least it's the weekend so we can get back to it, I think my DH thinks I'm crazy as I now only refer to him as the sperminator! 😉

Oh boy, the tww! Argh! Still at least from 8dpo i can occupy myself with insane poas!!!

I have everything but my legs crossed for us this cycle! It would be so great if we both got our bfps!!!

[Babylove100]

[Emski51]

Happy Friday to you to I really could do with not being at work today !

We are at my hubby sisters for dinner tonight so I will jump on him when we get home are you going anywhere nice with your mum.

Yea I have everything crossed this month for us other than legs I tell you this baby making is bloody hard work !!

 

[Babylove100]

Haha, good work! At least neither if us have to cook tonight!!

I work in London so she's meeting after work and we're just going to head over to Covent Garden and grab some dinner. Looking forward to it!

 

[Emski51]

Ah nice I used to live in London but we moved more towards the families so we now are in Guildford but we loved Covent Garden for eating and shopping !!

Yea so glad no cooking tonight what a nice way to round of the week ! and its looks like its going to be a nice day

 

[Babylove100]

Ah cool, yep love covent garden!

Indeed it is! Well hope you have a good day/evening, will be back tomorrow 😃

Morning all! So I couldn't test yesterday as I forgot to take any opks with me to work and didn't get home till 10pm and went straight to bed! I did have a ridiculous amount of ewcm yesterday, more than I've ever had in previous 2 cycles, I wonder whether the preconception vitamins are helping in that dept!!

Took an opk this morning and it's as dark as the dark one on cd 11, so annoyed I couldn't test yesterday as I don't know if I'd have got a positive yesterday or not argh! I'll keep testing today!

How's everyone else doing??

Ditto!!

Cd 12 for me today. Although, I probably have another 5 or 6 days until I ovulate which is good as we're going into town (Toronto) for the weekend to do one of my favourite things - pick out furniture! Trying to find a modern looking glider chair for if we ever get that BFP!

Also, just thought I'd add that I'm enjoying the SMEP method so far. It is way less exhausting doing it this way. Feels like less of a chore, and much more fun!

 

[Babylove100]

Great to hear the SMEP is working for you

I've just got my positive opk (pic attached)! Whohoo!!! Quick question, do I count today as O day and dpo1 tomorrow or tomorrow as O day and Tuesday dpo1?

 

[jumpingo]

i read you ovulate 24-48 hours after a positive, so i would guess tomorrow as O day and tuesday would be 1DPO. am curious myself, actually, and will hopefully find out soon (using OPKs for the first time, temping for the 3rd cycle) good luck!!

 

[Babylove100]

Excellent that's what I though, I will go with Tuesday as 1dpo! Exciting and lots of luck to you to!x

Morning Ladies

Babylove this month I seem to have O the same day as the positive opk according to my temps and ff I am currently 4dpo and have a massive temp spike this morning so fx its a good sign !

 

[Babylove100]

Ooooh sounding good!!! Fx for you!!

I had a stronger pos opk at 3pm yesterday so think I'll stick with today as O day and bd today and tomorrow then skip the next day and one for luck!

I'm so glad I tested for O this cycle, feel much more content knowing what's going on rather than playing a guessing game!

Here's to bfps!!!!!

 

[Babylove100]

Oooooh another pos opk at 11am....should I move I day to tomorrow??

 

[jumpingo]

in the photo, which side is the control line?

the left seems a tad darker, so a serious positive?

 

[Babylove100]

The left is the test line and the right is the control line. I reckon it's a tab bit darker than yesterday's positive but only very marginally!!

 

[jumpingo]

what's the deal with OPKs, i mean, they measure the surge right? do you ovulate just after the surge? during? ah, so many questions! haha

i got a positive this afternoon and now here i am, can't sleep because i'm excited to take my temp tomorrow and see! total nerd! ha

 

[Babylove100]

I did a bit of Googleing and they say you should count the 1st pos opk and it's 12-48hrs from then, even if you get more positives it's the first one that counts so on that basis I am back to O'ing today
