Me too! We aren't actively TTC, happened to do the deed and got ovulation pain next day. I'd love a little "accident"! It's driving me nuts not telling anyone...

I have no kids at the moment. Have been trying for 6 months. Feel lucky this month though! Think I had chemical pregnancy 3 months ago but not totally sure.

I reckon I should be due around 26th so I'll hide shelter in here!

Last month OV'd on day 14 (+ve OPK CD13) but on CD14 now and not even a faint line Some ewcm today, I think and CP is higher but still firm...

Hopefully OV by CD16, I reckon.

Hi think im due about 23rd but had weird short cycle last month so could be wrong!Trying to work out ovulation,no +ve opks but had ewcm around cd17-19. Teuch this might sound dumb but when you monitor cp does it matter if your standing or sitting?

nah - as long as you use the same position each day. Whatever works for you and good on you...many find it a bit squeamish

BigTeuchLittleTeuch · 12/03/2008 11:10

Oh, and try to check around the same time each day (I try evenings) since it moves around throughout the day

Thanks that's cool, that's what I've been doing...and squeamish definitley not - It's my body I'd like to know what the hell is going on in there!

Well now I know I'm doing it right(!) CP was higher around the same time as ewcm so heres hoping I've ovulated even though no +ve opk! Guess then I'm officially on my first 2ww!!

How's everyone doing? Just another 7 days or so until we can start testing!

Hi! To be honest I'm a bit confused now, thought I must have ovulated but then got a +ve on the OPKs wed and thur so maybe it didn't happen until wed...either way I would have thought I was due on the 23rd so if thats the case I just hope my LP is long enough? Well...will soon find out when AF turns up!!

Hi smellsofroses how you doing...holding out ok?!

I'm due on the 23rd, I'll probably start testing at 11dpo though which is the 21st. This is the 9th cycle & I'm getting to the point where I'd collapse with shock if the pee stick was positive

smellsofroses · 14/03/2008 13:18

I'm good - am convinced this month is the month because I got a migraine the day after I ovulated and have convinced myself that is hormone surge of sperm meeting egg - ridiculous I know! How about you?

Bright - your LP shouldn't vary, but your day of OV can. If you usually have LP of, say, 12 days it should only vary by 1 day max, so you should amend AF due-date by ovulation.

Also, the surge comes before ovulation - usually 12-36 hours after surge so I would assume Thur/Fri at earliest for OV. DOes that make sense? Is that this week? If so, we are on similar cycles. +OPK this morning for me, so assuming OV later today or tomorrow (I seem to have a quick succession of surge/OV).

Yep teuch its this week. Im not sure what my LP is as this is my 1st cycle of ttc and the 1st time ive paid any attention to this stuff! So if i got a +ve thur but -ve today do you think i ovulated yesterday? Thanks for the help!x

Hi All, I would have ov'ed on 12th - 13th march, AF is due on 27th Mar. This is my first cycle ttc, already have a DS who is nearly 4 yrs old

My test strips came in the post today and i could not help myself and wasted a test strip by doing a test. i am just so excited i could not wait

i think we are all on pretty much the same cycle.

How do I stop thinking and obsessing about when i can test? any ideas?

Bright, if you got a +ve on thurs, then you are likely to ovulate 12-36 hrs after. so either today or tomorrow. so lots of BD tonight and tomorrow

It's hard not thinking about it all the time, isn't it? I was at my sister's for a few days and it was all I could do not to say something! I have lots on Easter weekend too to get me that far... then roll on Monday!

Hi Shu, i know just what you mean about being so hard to not say anything! every conversation i have, i feel like talking about pregnancy, conception, periods, test strips, ovulations!

even chatting with DH, i have to really censor myself not to go on and on about it all!

i am going to focus on knitting (for my yet to be baby) to get me through!
i made a pair of bootes already!
