*** June Testing Thread - luck and baby dust ***

[SY92]

I'm Alrady 4dpo. Because I ovulated way to early this cycle. I'm alrady out and I'm so low.
I'm terrified im gonna keep on ovulating to early from now on.
I know its prob down to the chemical but it still concerns me.
AF is due 5th june now instead of the 10th. Just hope I ovulate at normol time next cycle. I'm so worried.
I've been in such a rotten mood.
I feel like I have a doesen fingers pointing at me saying ure to old
I dont even get to be in the 2ww because my stupid cycle is all messed up.
Keep doing OPKs and all have been negative since day 7. My temp has remained high so I definitely ovulated on day 8

Hey hun!
Thats what happened to me with my chem - it threw me right off last cycle i think that's why i got my last cycle tbh as the amount of BD' we were doing was more than enough lol *tmi* sorry
..im positive your next cycle will be much more hopeful one that this! just try think of it as your body regenerating ? it still sucks i know, but you are NOT too old! xx

Hello ladies
Once my AF is done in about a week I’ll be wandering over here if that’s ok
Could I just ask a quick question about Ovulation sticks please because It’ll be my first ever month trying them. What days do you start peeing on them and what time of day/how often?
Thank you in advance and wishing you all a ton of luck in this thread

 

[SY92]

Good morning ladies!
I hope everyone is well ?!

I think i am 1 Day DPO. CP was higher and softer yesterday afternoon, but by evening it was slightly firmer soo ..
Hubby & I didnt BD yesterday but did the day before & 2 days before that soo hopefully there was still something hanging around when the egg dropped?

If i'm being honest i'm not feeling hopeful but just got to wait and see now!
hoping to test around the 7th - would be good as i could try get a fathers day gift to tell the hubby!

1DPO symptoms
slight lower abdo cramp/niggle/stitch ?

Anyway better crack on & make a start on the kids school work

Much love ladies

I start using OPKs 3 days before ovulation just in case my prediction is wrong. When I get a positive I test twice a day. I usually have 2 positive days then I’ll test again on my final day to see how light the test has gone. I use the glow app because I can scan my OPKs in and it tells me when my peak is and when to BD.

FTale - not long until you test? How many dpo will you be when you test? Hoping the bloating is a good sign for you!!

The Bloating was instant, Jft, strangest ever. One minute I was trying to stuff my face the next I was pushing my breakfast plate away. Still bloated. Totally afraid to sport thoughts of 'this is it!' but man wouldn't it be nice.

Friday the 29th or Tuesday the 2nd. I prefer Tuesday. My cycles should be here that day or the next.

As for dtd, yes, you got good timing into your fertile when. 24 to 36 hours after a positive opk is when the egg releases. So always good to bd through when you think you can stop. I went 1dpo but couldnt make it to 2dpo but close enough being late at night on 1 dpo..rofl...
Will be stalking you!!

Try testing with fmu and smu on cd 9 since this is your first time using the sticks. Once the test line is as dark you are very close to O day. Then when its the same dark or darker I usually call it Peak ovulation and make sure to get in bd every day for 3 days like crazy person...lol But if you start bd every other day from cd10 through cd16 or until confirmed rising temps...you should be good. Sorry so long. Always come back for any other questions. Hugs

Thank you. So when you get a positive test does that mean that ovulation is imminent? How long do you get to BD from the positive or should you have been already doing so? Sorry..I know nothing about this. I should go and research...

I think you should do it within 12 hours of a positive and the day after. But a couple of days before just to be covered

Hi, all back again I will be testing on or around the 9th but I’d like you to have a look at my OPK because the line is not as thick as the test line but some parts are the same colour, wondering if I should class it as a positive or nearly there..... last month my first after a failed IVF round I did not get as dark as this and AF arrived 2 days early, so I’m hoping that this month my body is back to normal!!!

 

[Lightning7]

Hi Ladies, currently hopefully on the tail end of AF, should be due next AF on the 16th June give or take a couple days so will be testing around then!

@Jft1 we must be twins hahaha I am 28 as well and usually have a short luteal phase too!

@Suggerhoney you use fmu and smu for your opks? I always test between midday to early evening as I read the LH surge doesn't usually rise in the morning?

@Deethehippy it's generally recommended to start testing a few days before you would usually ovulate, as for some people the positive can be up to 48hrs before Ovulation plus you can O earlier than expected. I used to start testing the day after AF finished (since my cycles are short) but now that I know I ovulate between CD14-17 I start testing CD11 to save on tests. My positive is almost always in the arvo 2 days before Ovulation. Good luck!

Beyond temping daily and taking vitamins that help my egg quality, I'm not focusing or stressing on TTC much this month. A lot of stuff is open again where I am and I have quite a bit to distract me. My partner and I have sex pretty much daily anyway so I'm just going to chill out about it. Maybe the change of strategy will help.

So I did another one just now and this is a positive let the BD start!!

 

[Hevalouaddict]

I posted my OPK tests on the last page. My app tells me when I have my peak. I test morning and afternoon when my tests get stronger and try to bd every other day and both positive days.

Welcome everyone! I've added you all to the first page I think, if I've missed anyone please let me know!
Really hoping this is a positive month for all of us, I want to see lots of bfps!

@Deethehippy here's a photo of the table that comes with the ovulation sticks I use, that tells you roughly when to start testing depending on your cycle. My cycle is about 30 days, I usually start testing about cd12, I just test once a day about 5 or 6pm after a good 3 hour hold and not much fluids. My tests start to get darker about cd16 and cd17 I start testing twice, once about 11am and once about 6pm. I usually get my positive on cd18 and assume I ovulate about 24 hours later, so cd19. With ds I used opk's and followed the sperm meets egg plan, you should have a look at that if you haven't already! This time I'm trying to dtd a couple of days before o to test out the shettles method.
A healthy baby is all I want, but thought I'd give it a go!

Today is o day for me, the pains I've had this month have been so bad. I never used to get them, but since the ectopic it seems to be amplified.. Maybe it's all in my head, I don't know.
Anyway, let's hope we caught the egg!

Thank you for that Jft1 - that's given me good tips and I will do some more reading and research. Will be interesting to see if when I thought I was O'ing was actually close.

 

[FTale]

Congrats on Oing Jft!!


SY92: The dpos are going to speed by. I am getting nervous wanting to crawl back to 1dpo. Keep us posted on your symptoms. FX!!

Dannie: Welcome FX for the 4th!!

Mum42: LOL I hope you have gotten some good bd in. I was sooo happy when I peaked and had all the physical O symptoms. Seems like an eternity waiting for O.

I am feel rough but hoping its all my progesterone making it comfy for a lil bean to grow.

 

[Suggerhoney]

Dee and Lightning I always start testing on CD7 and dont normoly get my postive until day 11 to 12 but got a blazing positive on CD7 this cycle and ovulted day 8 which is a bummer but hoping it's down to the chemical and my ovulation will be back to normol next cycle. But I will be doing OPKs again from day 7 onwards.
I test around 1pm and then again at arok 7pm
Hope that helps ladies.
I use the easy@home ovulation test strips there amazing and clearly show ure peak.

Hey hun!
Thats what happened to me with my chem - it threw me right off last cycle i think that's why i got my last cycle tbh as the amount of BD' we were doing was more than enough lol *tmi* sorry

Hi hon

Did u ovulate to early to? And did u ovulate at ure normol time with ure next cycle?
I'm so scared I'm gonna keep ovulating to early from now on.
I'm 6dpo and just sat waiting for AF may is really dragging.
But then I'm terrified I'm gonna get to next cycle and ovulate again b4 day 11.

My normol ovulation is day 12 to 13 so considering this supper early ovulation has happened directly after a chemical I'm praying its down to that.

Did u also have a shorter cycle after the chemical? I always bleed at 15 to 16 dpo so that will only make this cycle 23 days instead of my normol 26 to 28 days.

Thank you so much for being so kind.
Providing I do start AF by the 5th of june then I shud hopefully still make this june testing thread because I wud due my next AF right at the end of June or very beginning of July so I shud be testing toward the end of June. Providing I ovulate at my normal time and not early again.

Feel like time is dragging so much. Did u also notice u didnt have any egg white cm after the chemical?.
I felt a leak on day 7 but its was all this watery stuff. I've had no egg white cm this cycle at all.
I feel like this whole cycle is completely messed up.

If i new for sure I was gonna ovulate at the normol time next cycle I wud be fine but it's the unknown.
