***June Testing Thread!***7 BFPS SO FAR *******

[TTCno4]

Yes TTCno4 I find them extremely stressful! I used the CB advanced and struggled to get peak, trying the strips now and I’m confused and more stressed. I think this will be my last month using them.. as I think they add more stress!

I’m guessing you don’t temp?

No I have no clue when it comes to temping and checking my cervix! This will be my first time actively ttc, my others have been ntnp really

 

[mumof1+1]

I don’t think I’d ever go back to OPK strips after using the cb connected. I think they’re confusing. At least with digitals it’s clear. Not sure if I’ll carry on after I run out of sticks ignore I’m honest. Will probably just go back to letting nature take its course.

4dpo today. No symptoms but not expecting any. Best I usually get is a tender patch 4 days before af arrives. If that’s all I get this month I’ll not even test. Sick of the heartache really

Would any of you say that yesterday morning was a positive?

Does look quite a strong line but I dunno if with those tests it’s a positive. You having any other signs of ovulation cm or cervix?

I don’t know where to start with checking my cervix but cm appears to be clear and stretchy

I am still waiting to ovulate which is normally CD20 but after CP last cycle don’t know if this is why I’m already getting dark opk’s. I did an IC opk this morning and it’s quite dark (these don’t normally get as dark as control line) then 4 hours later did a FR opk stick and it’s close to positive. So now I know it’s only been 3 hours since then but digi CB opk said negative but look at the line difference. I don’t know what’s going on

 

[swedengirl]

So I had what I think is the start of my temp shift! It jumped just above coverline which I would have expected based on Cm and cp yesterday! Soooooo I’m officially not using OPKs again. I was testing every time (from 19th of may!!) I peed and reducing fluid intake and still no true positive. The closest I got was yesterday afternoon and I clearly ovulated yesterday! So they didnt really give me any heads up. I’ll stick to the Cm and cp monitoring I think.

I’m also officially in the TWW! Thanks for all the OPK help!

 

[swedengirl]

Looks like several of us are having OPK trouble this month...

TTCno4 my OPKs look liked your morning one yesterday and I ovulated even though I wouldn’t say it’s a true positive...

Tay- I’ve never used that digital one before. But I hope today brings you your smiley!

 

[Beccaboo828]

8dpo.. is it just me or is this months tww going exceptionally slow!

 

[Hopeful2019]

Ok, so thought I ovulated yesterday, like you swedengirl, I never see a peak.

Instead I look to see if my almost peak is starting to fade, which I thought it was yesterday. Temp this morning was still low which I thought was odd so did an opk this morning, blaring positive! But can't DTD until tonight so I hope I don't miss it. Looks like I will be ovulating tonight/tomorrow

Usually the lines come and go in one day for me, this is the first time it's progressed over several days. It's so confusing!

I wouldn't say it's positive but I would have treated it like one if you know what I mean

Ergh! Getting so frustrated now thought I was getting somewhere with my tests but today nothing.

I have zero physical symptoms as no sore boobs or cramping nothing. My cervix Is high soft and closed and I swear it’s got cm covering. I’ve been having a lot of ewcm/ tacky cm a lot more than usual.

I had no symptoms with my dd or ds ( didn’t pay attention to cm or cervix with them) so I have a little bit of hope.

For those of you who don't know me, here's a bit of history:
I have a 7 month old daughter who is my life! I am on maternity leave until December, if I get pregnant before that I will be able to go straight onto pregnancy leave without returning to work (that is the dream).
Our ttc journey was really long (almost like this post ). We conceived DD on our 19th cycle. (And had a mc on the 8th cycle). I went through a lot of tests and all came back perfect (The infertility specialist called me super fertile). Dh had low motility and low sperm count. He took supplements for it and we conceived DD two months after he started those.

We decided to start ttc for #2 in August (so that I am not pregnant in summer, and so that I can maximise my pregnancy and maternity leave). Dh will start his supplements again in July.

This week dh sprang it on me that he wants to start trying right now. Im hesitant for completely selfish reasons (I want to enjoy DD for a while longer without feeling crappy as I did during pregnancy, I want to lose a few more kg's, I want to drink a few drinks on summer holiday at the beach in July, etc).
But.... what if it takes 19 cycles again? Then i don't want to waste any time! I think I am about 2 to 3 days from ovulation... Need opinions... should I go for it or not?

To me it kinda sounds like you want that little break first which I completely understand my pregnancies are not the easiest. Did your hubby say why he wants to get going now instead of just waiting? Could he not start taking his supplements now so it’ll be well into his system for when you guys start ttc? Might give you guys head start this time round

Starting to go a little crazy. I'm probably 3-4DPO. Have had some odd pains in the sides of my breasts (on the outside). Today woke up feeling a little itchy down there and thought I might be developing a YI, which I haven't had in about 6 years or so! I never really get them. I've been reading it can be a sign (but honestly, if you look hard enough, isn't EVERYTHING a sign? lol).

 

[TTCno4]

So if I go on my opks the past few days and they fact they are getting fainter (pic in previous comments) I have put into my ovia app that I possibly ov on the 29th. This has given my a new fertile window, hearts are when we bd and on the 29th I used pre seed. Good chance of catching this time?

6dpo. Trying desperately not to read anything into it but I’ve felt pretty nauseous on and off all day today. Luckily we’re away and not sticks available without buying which I refuse to do! So least I can’t be tempted to stupidly test way too early!! I have some 10miu wide strips at home which I’ll use if af doesn’t show or unless I get more ‘proper’ symptoms. I’d love to be lucky this month but suppose what will be will be...

 

[Aerith07]

Hey ladies! Around 5dpo here. Felt a little nausea yesterday and today, but only briefly. That would be a new symptom for me this early. Usually before my BFPs with my other pregnancies all I had to go on was supper sore bbs and my intuition. :shrugs:

I might test on Monday at 8dpo.

Symptom spotting in the TWW is a nightmare isn’t it? Every little twinge, ache, nauseous feeling has you driving yourself crazy wondering. Fx for you
