Mmmmm thanks!!! Don't feel particularly wise now though....more confused!!!

I am on CD12 today and started OPK's day before yesterday. First one was neg,second a little darker but not a positive,did another later last night and it was almost non-existant,this afternoon it was darker but not as dark as yesterday?? Was the darker one a positive?? I dunno??

OPKs are wonderful little things arent they - BUT - I always find that my results would change depending on what time of day I peed on them. Never pee on them in the morning cos apparently it takes time for the LH to rise in your body after you get up (or so I think I read somewhere). I always do mine before I pick little one up from pre-school, so about midday - go pick her up and then check it when I get back (about 10 mins later)....but if I test again later in the day its always lighter - I've just always put this down to pee being more diluted as the day goes on...

So dont panic too much if the line comes and goes a bit - generally you'll know when it pos as it will be the same or darker than the control line.....now get to BD'ing girlie - lol

Also Hi to Spencerbear - glad youcould join us hon - dont worry too much about the old clicking clock - just keep at it (ahem - if you know what I mean) and I'm sure you'll get your BFP nice and quickly.......

Now did I just read someone is trying for their 10th baby? Wow - you have my utmost respect - I wouldn't have the patience for 9 kids - you must be a great mum.......good luck honey, here's to a swift BFP for number 10 - and I hope you go on to have many more...lol

Hey can I join? I'm 40 next month and ttc #3.

I have a daughter (9) and a son (6). Unfortunately my daughter was diagnosed with a serious health problem when she was 4 and has had to have surgery every 6 months since she was 7. When I married we decided we wanted more than 2 kids but the stress of all my daughter's hospital treatment meant that we didn't even think about going for #3. Then, just over a year ago I suddenly felt this huge regret that we only have 2 kids - it felt like someone was missing from our family. It has taken a year for my hubby to come around and now we are on cycle 2 of trying. I'm so excited, in fact I never felt so broody when trying for my other kids. Thankfully my daughter's treatment is confined to a couple of nights in hospital every 6 months, so that is perfectly do-able with a baby...someone remind I said that!

I am concerned that my fertility is not what it was as, in addition to my age, my cycle seems to have become a little irregular during the last few years. My other pregnancies took 6 months to conceive and we've decided to give it a year and then have a re-think as, at some stage, I think we may just accept it as our lot and move on.

Best wishes to everyone on this magical journey.
