Ttc#2+ 2013/2014! - 6 BFP's, 4 angels

Mmm archers n lemonade sounds good

Is it a no no to drink in the TWW? Might be a dumb question but I'm just wondering..

Haha I'm itching to test sooner. I've got loads of internet cheapies but I bought two first response tests so if i get a faint line I can re test with one of those. I got such a faint line on the cheapies but a blazing positive on first response.

I'm trying to be optimistic but I don't feel this is my month

 

[brunettebimbo]

I say bin dipsticks, they just set you up for heartache!

I personally don't drink in the 2WW but I know some people do!

 

[Unexpected212]

Sometimes I wonder about them tbf because when I missed my period they were negative on the cheapies for AGES and then 7 days late I only got a really faint positive but on first response it was really clear.

Yeah I don't think I will drink in TWW. I feel bad enough I didn't know I was pregnant last time so obviously drank before I missed my period.

So sorry brunette (( BFN's suck

Also. I only just realise what BFN and BFP meant. I learn new stuff on here everyday. I knew it meant positive or negative but not big fat negative or big fat positive. I feel stupid!

Brunette- enjoy the Archers it'll help take your mind off things and you'll have your sis there! On the bright side, your cycle was a lot shorter this time, which is a good thing

Unexpected- ha, you think you'll last until next Monday??? I get tempted to test by 8dpo. Hope you can last until then!

Afm- my opk was negative at 4pm I had a cup of tea at 4:30pm and I'm going to test again at 8pm. Do you ladies think that's a long enough hold? My temps are very low and I'm hoping I ovulate today or at least 2moro!

 

[brunettebimbo]

I say ignore the OPKs and just get shagging!

 

[CKJ]

Really sorry brunette amazing how much better ur cycle was tho!! Mayb ur body needed to have a 'normal' cycle b4 getting into baby making mode!!! Enjoy your archers xxxx

 

[brunettebimbo]

Lets hope its 3rd time lucky!

 

[Unexpected212]

I'm not sure I'm going to do OPK's next month I might just aim for BD every other day or every day.

They stressed me out quite a bit

'just get shagging' love that lol

I'm going to try to hold out. Like I said i think my wee is weird or something cos it took ages to show up last time

 

[brunettebimbo]

Did for me last time too.

I found OPKs really stressful. We go for every other/every day so we don't miss it. I temp to confirm O

 

[Cookie1979]

Opks stressed me out too, I wasn't going to use them this month but my ewcm went on for so long that I needed to know what was going, didn't stress me out thus time though but maybe because we were focusing more on baby dancing and I knew bbt charting would confirm it. Although my charts say 2 different things. X

 

[Unexpected212]

I used them this month cos I was curious to find out if I really do ovulate quite late and I did CD19 out of a 30ish day cycle.

Now I know I might not bother with them next time. I might just go with the flow next month and if still no joy get on the temping

I hope we all get our bfp's this month or next month

Although my friend did point out that will mean no drinking or partying over christmas and new year....not that I can really anyway with a young child

 

[brunettebimbo]

I'm not one to drink really so doesn't bother me. We don't really drink at Christmas and don't drink at New Year!

 

[wildchic]

I know, they stress me out too! And I have the cheapies that cause smudges and the control line is sometimes soooo light, I can't even make that out! I'll just do one more now and see if there's anything.

 

[Unexpected212]

I'm a complete light weight so drinking is lost on me really. One glass of wine and I'm tipsy as anything.

When I was pregnant I missed it occasionally but being without it didn't bother me really

 

[Unexpected212]

I know, they stress me out too! And I have the cheapies that cause smudges and the control line is sometimes soooo light, I can't even make that out! I'll just do one more now and see if there's anything.

I just kept squinting like 'is that line as dark?? or slightly lighter...or darker' My husband was like 'seriously you've done like a 1000'

 

[wildchic]

Well, I just done another and negative as expected. I don't even think there is a control line, if there is, its EXTREMELY light! Actually feeling irritated with myself for doing an opk! I'm having light cramps today and thought 'just maybe O is here or nearing'.

 

[Unexpected212]

I had cramps about 3 days BEFORE i got a positive OPK so it may be your body gearing up for it

My OPK's went darker/lighter/darker and then I finally got a positive I couldn't mistake for anything else

 

[mommyxofxone]

wild- i always used to take my opk at 8 pm too. i would not drink and hold my pee for 2 hours before it. So from 430-8 is fine.

and yeah, mine got lighter before they got darker too.

i love opks.(when they work) i feel like i have better control, esp since my o day likes to bounce around as we've seen.


I went out today and bought frers. in the am, if my line is darker on my ics, i will use a frer. if not, not opening the box. Because even the slightest bit darker is a huge deal on an ic so i figure i won't be wasting it.

now i'm just obsessing over it. pulled it out of the bin again, and STILL can see the line. i didn't imagine it.

 

[CKJ]

Lol we r expecting an immediate update mofo in the morn!!

 

[mommyxofxone]

lol thanks ckj!

so anxious. can't stop thinking about it! ridiculous.
