    You never know Smudge, I tested on sat with a FR and was negative, when I tested this morning there could have been a BFP (although I am not counting my chickens til tomorrow!!)

    i suppose, but as was due on today would have thought it would have shown by now! xxx

    Are your cycles normally pretty regular Smudge (I'm sure you've prob told me this but I have a memory like a sieve!)

    You could be right but wait and see if AF arrives

    It's annoying how the pill seems to screw your cycles up. I am keeping everything crossed for you Smudge

    Hello everyone, I'm new and we're just getting ready to try for our 1 st baby after getting married last May.. I am uber excited! I don't have a cbfm but we use the persona for contraception. This month wierdly I ovulated a week earier than normal and having ignored the red light on my machine as I thought it was too early I found that the ov sign appeared the day after upsi and again the next day! Now as we were planning on starting next month anyway I am kinda excited that maybe we are in with a chance... Prob not as we didn't bd on actual ov days. I have however noticed that the red light ( equivalent to cbfm high) is still showing 3 days after second ov day so I guess we're out however now I'm confused as normally I only get at most 1 high after second ov (peak) day.. Am I still fertile? Has anyone else had this or have any ideas? Thank you xx

    Hello Ladies,

    How are you all?

    I havent been on for a few days as we found out last week that although DH has a great sperm count the quality was really poor, our GP referred us to a fertility clinic yesterday.
    I was still very positive and had a niggling feeling we still may have done it this month and I cant believe Im saying it but we have!!

    I tested with an ic last night which had a very very faint 2nd line, so tested again this morning with another ic and tesco, both faint lines and so then used both my clearblue digis which said.....PREGNANT 1-2 weeks. Am in shock that not only did we do it 1st month of trying but especially with DH swimmers not being great.

    Keep up that PMA girls, you're all sooo lovely and you all deserve it!!

    Hey smudge just read your entry. I came off pill in July and straight away went to 31 day cycles but at Christmas my period was 4 days late! However when I thought back I did get ewcm on day 22 of my cycle along with some ov pains and so when my period arrived on day 35 that would work out for my luteal phase which I know for me is 13 days. Basically your luteal phase will always be the same it's the period prior to ov that can vary and affected by stress etc. I now expect my period 13 days post signs of ov as it stops me stressing and I used 4 preg test last month which gets costly! So basically u might be testing too early try to wait till 14 days post ov symptoms. Good luck xx

    Oh congrats please happen that's fabby! Well done u! Can I ask how u managed to get referred to fertility ( not that u need it now woop!) so early? Our gp won't do anything till trying for at least a year! We've just started but got friend who's having probs. X

    Hi Impatient,

    We got referred so quickly as I came off the pill 2 yrs ago but didnt have af for 15 months by which time that had started looking into it. They then found I had high prolactin level which I was on medication for (stopped as of today!!). I started ovulating naturally etc then we found DH has really bad sperm quality so she said she would refer us straight away. I think its basically because we both have problems and I am 30 and DH is 33 and we dont have any children yet.

    Its is so frustrating when they just keep telling you to keep trying when all you want are the tests etc.

    Hope everything works out for you and your friend.

    How's everyone else getting on?

    I turned my monitor on onCD8 i think it was - i didn't want to because it used to tell me to POAS all the time and CD8 is crazy when i know what the result will be when i don't OV til round til round cd 24/35! So I've not turned it on simce then!! I'm on CD12 - i think i'll turn it on around CD 16 - Do think that's fair?

  • Options
    Oh Ruby Shies and Please Happen I'm soooo pleased for you both. I literally just shouted 'yes' and Hubby thought I was mad :lol:

    I've not had my peak yet, but expecting it tomorrow so hopefully it'll come then or at least in the next few days image

    Princess, I would personally have switvhed it on by now but that's just me :\)

    Hi ladies,

    I didn;t get my peak today :evil: even though I'm on CD 18, I'm worried that I didn't POAS long enough so it didn't pick it up?
