Good luck @Suggerhoney catch that darn eggy!!
congrats @Sarah Pearce

@HalfricanMa thank you

@HalfricanMa oh I’m so sorry lovely, I was so hopefully for you!
Are you going to be doing clomid again?

@Suggerhoney as I said to you lovely, ovulation is happening! Those digi tests are so weird with their flashing smileys, it never seems to be the same pattern for anyone. I thought it was just me and my wonky cycles at first but so many women with regular ovulation like you seem to get different amounts of high days each cycle. It’s weird!

5DPO here and my temp is holding steady. It was an upwards climb with I had my youngest. A bit rockier with my eldest two but that was traditional BBT rather than Ava which is skin temp throughout the night. I guess I worry that if it’s not the same pattern as my successful pregnancy then it’s not going to work out. I know that’s probably daft but my body rarely seems to work right so I look for all these patterns to judge if a cycle is going well. Hope that makes sense?
I know I overanalyse and overthink!

 

[NDH]

So sorry for AF HalfricanMa

 

[HalfricanMa]

Thanks @NDH and @jellybeanxx . Sucks so much but I truly believe God isnt saying no, just not right now.
Im very hopeful for you jellybean! Glad your temp is upward and looking good thus far!

No, for now i will be done with clomid. This next cycle i will play it without any opk testing nor temping. I will wear the belly warmer and prob do the cup, but thats it.

 

[Laurabub84]

Thanks @Suggerhoney , @Laurabub84 and everyone for wishes of bfp. I was hopeful for having missed my period yesterday, but now i have begun to bleed. On to month 11….

Oh no I’m so sorry af has shown. I think I’ll be joining you as my temp dropped this morning. Hoping it just shows tomorrow so I can get it over with. Big hugs my love

I do that too hun. I know by how my chart looked it was looking more like my non pregnant and chemical charts. I hope you get a lovely bfp. Will keep everything crossed for you

Biiiig hugs. Ugh this is quite frustrating & disheartening, isnt it?! Sorry your temp has dropped. If af does show for you, i hope its quickly as you say.

 

[Suggerhoney]

@HalfricanMa
Oh no so sorry AF has reared her ugly head sweet. I’m on cycle 12 now and if this cycle isn’t the one then I’ll be on to cycle 13. So I’m just 2 months in front of you. I fell with my son on cycle 11 he was longest I had ever had to try but now this one has been the longest.
Hope next cycle is the one for you lovely, a nice Christmas baby
And thank you, what will be will be I guess we just keep on trying. But would be great if this cycle is my sticky rainbow baby cycle. I’ve prayed a lot

@jellybeanxx
Thanks sweet heart, yeah I’m happy it’s peak. Just done another and it’s still peak. Having lower backache and cramps.
Hope you get a lovely surprise in a few days hon.

@Laurabub84
Oh lovely I really hope if af does show sue won’t keep you waiting. mine was 17dpo and that’s always such a long wait.
Im not temping at all this cycle. Not even for a few days just over ovulation like I did last cycle. I am not temping at all.

Thanks @Suggerhoney , @Laurabub84 and everyone for wishes of bfp. I was hopeful for having missed my period yesterday, but now i have begun to bleed. On to month 11….

I'm so sorry! I sincerely hope this new cycle is the one!

 

[Suggerhoney]

I'm so sorry! I sincerely hope this new cycle is the one!

When will you be testing again hon? I really hope you get lines when you do test again,
Long term ttc sucks.

Got another BFN this morning I'm 11 dpo now, so I've decided not to try again unless AF is late. I have a 16 day LP, so I expect AF to arrive on Thursday, possibly early morning Friday. We'll see. Who knows, maybe I'll get a lucky surprise still. I'm not feeling like this cycle was a winner though.

 

[Babydreaming9]

I couldn’t hold off, this morning I feel so sickly and I was busting to wee at 5:30am, so I POAS - 10DPO - BFN !

Gutted!

@Pink.Rose my AF is due Thursday too, feeling the same as you this cycle. Don’t think I’ll bother testing again now unless late, I can’t take the heartache.

 

[MrsLux]

Well, 10 dpo today and this mornings test was once again negative. I wonder if it's worth trying to cup method next time around... I'm so tired of waiting month after month

Is this with a menstrual cup after DTD? I've done this three times and it's worked all three times! Third time post vas reversal. Def worth a go!

 

[1234boymum]

Hi ladies please can I ask you if you think it looks not good for me? Irregular cycles its cd29. Using wondfo dip test 25miu. If I went by ewcm I'm 12dpo this morning. I get shadows on some tests. On this mornings it was just a indent line. Last dtd 2 weeks ago. Thanks if anyone replies.

[Saradavies89]

Hey all do this is for you all to help but mainly @Suggerhoney so I used the clear blue digi OPKs and done a lot of research before using.

so when u start using them ur first urine is always going to be a plain circle. That first wee of the cycle it just detects your level of urine so it’s got a baseline.
Ur second urine it starts to actually test it properly if that makes sense.
So when I done it my little cheap ones had started getting dark only just, the digi was a circle next day cheapie little bit darker. I had a flashing smiley had it for 1 day second day I had a static smiley, I never tested again after that cz no matter what that static stays for 48hours. Once u wee on it again after that 48 hours the process starts again so clear circle to get baseline and then it starts testing again properly I hope you understand what I’ve wrote lol xxxx

I feel like on the second test there’s a vvvv faint line but when I click the pic and zoom in I can’t see it. I think they may be BFNs hun.

 

[Laurabub84]

@Pink.Rose and @Babydreaming9 I’m so sorry for the bfns ladies. They really are so disheartening. Big hugs

@1234boymum i feel like something may be catching my eye. Maybe try testing again tomorrow and see if they’re any darker. Good luck

 

[Laurabub84]

Stupid temp went back up instead of down this morning but after bd last night I’m now noticing some tiny amounts of spotting. I just want af to show now so I can move on from this cycle. I hate that my body has to drag it out when I know it’s coming. So frustrating.

I know, it stings getting those negatives and its so draining the longer it takes to conceive too. Hopefully we both end up with good news soon though!
