The other girls are right, there are two strips always there. The ink fills the line in. I would stay away from FRER's to be honest... Experienced mom of soon to be 7 children, most $1 test are stronger than FRER. I took this test at 7-8 DPO with a $1 test and I don't have to worry about the clear line like FRER's do. So many times, my heart would jump seeing that clear line in hopes that meant I really was pregnant...But nope. :c I hate FRER's! Stay positive, I have been there! Prayers and I give you tons of sticky dust!Quote:

Hope o holds off for your appointment Purple!
Sorry 2xblue. Hope the advice means a great BFP next cycle xx
Thats what they look like mammacass. The only thing these came from overseas and took a while. Your best bet is seeing if there is something similar in Aus. It might cost a little more (compared to overseas prices) but the wait will be less.

Mammacass I got 50 opks really cheap from an Aussie website called fertility2family. I got one positive out of 49 tests but that could just be me? I've had nothing but trouble with strips :( but you might have better luck. You could try googling reviews for any ones you do find and see if anyone has anything to say about them?
Thanks Netti - they are the same pkt as the ones I got and tried in a practice cycle. Can't remember name of seller but I did get them from Australia. Might avoid fertility2family just in case Pbn, thanks girls [emoji106]

Quinn as the girls have said I definitely wouldn't skip. I have had 3-4 weeks off LE during the course of my 23 weeks since starting it and Atomic says it's overall condition that counts. I wouldn't skip a cycle cause of a few cheats, and as purple said it's the snacking that matters mostly on a boy sway. It's really the main thing I have cut out, cut down on red meat too and fortified foods like cereals. Best of luck and sending you tonnes of blue dust x
Purple hope O stalls til closer your appointment!!
Sorry 2x! Glad you have gotten some tips from Atomic regards your lt phase and hoping November is your month.
After the lovely sleep Saturday night I had a rotten sleep last night. Couldn't go to sleep for ages and then when I eventually did I felt really on edge and kept waking up. I think I got too much sleep on Saturday and my body isn't used to it any more lol. 5dpo and next week can't come fast enough!!
Netti - they are the same outer packet as mine but the actual sticks are different (see below). Yours seem to be better.
Anyway, another LH surge for me but stronger than the last one so maybe it will push that little egg out?
The top image is the opk+ from last week and the one today is on the bottom. Even the ebay cheapy is darker.

If I O tomorrow it might work out ok for the appointment, assuming my lp stays at 12days, and that they will even let me do clomid after the 1st appointment. My dr has done blood tests already so hopefully!
Sorry AF got you :( I hope atomics advice helps!Quote:

That's a great positive purple!! Fingers crossed your Lt phase is its usual 12 days.
Thanks for the tip Purple, will make a point to look at the sticks. Good luck [emoji4]Quote:

Laurenk, so exciting! Go catch that eggie! :cheer:
2xblue, what a bummer :( Sorry you got AF. FX this cycle!!
Ovusoft changed my O date to the 4th so now it's in agreement with FF and Ovagraph. Guess I'm actually 8dpo and not 6! That means we only DTD once three days before O which kinda worries me there were no little swimmers left by that point. :/ Especially since DH hasn't been producing as much since being on supps and diet.
Well it makes the tww that much shorter. That's big time girl sway if you had some swimmers make it. My hubs did supps too so I always worry we won't have much luck, although his job is super stressful and he has plenty of testosterone to go around. LolQuote:

I hope this is your month Laurenk!
Fingers and toes crossed for you Lauren! Come on October, we need some BFPs in a BIG way!!!!
5dpo over here and have some awful cramps going on. Thinking it must surely be AF gearing up to come early cause I don't recall this on my boys. Having a bit of a pity party today on top of which my youngest DS2 is going through a super clingy stage that has me just worn out! I had a massive cheat after my dinner - a hazelnut Magnum and it was delish!! Feel guilty now but it was totally needed for my sanity!
Hope this is it for you!Quote:

mommy machine, how are you feeling? You're due to test soon aren't you? x
Thank you ladies! I really hope I will have normal LP this cycle.
Lauren, really hope this is your month! You have been swaying along time and it's definitely your turn! Good luck!
Is there anything Atomic has recommended that you can implement straight away hun? Hopefully it was just a fluke LP this cycle though!Quote:

We dtd at 11am since I had a positive opk and around 1pm I started having really bad cramps. Could I have Od that quickly?? If so, I hope we caught it on time!

Good luck Lauren! You generally o the day after solid smiley but everyone is different! Let us know what your temp is like in the morning :)
Best of luck Lauren.
Ughh more opks today that are nowhere near positive they look lighter than yesterday afternoons ones. I did a trusted brand aswell. Just waiting for them to dry and maybe then ill compare. My CM seems to be watery/creamy yet in abundance and my temp went up this morning however it was a pretty warm night and I was tossing and turning so not really paying too much attention to that.
More waiting😢
I really thought id see a positive today. Oh well ill test this afternoon and tonight. O is definitely not tmro maybe Thursday.

Would love if that were the case mammacass, not holding out much hope as they feel very AF-ish. I remember it was more kinda niggly cramps with my boys whereas this is a heavy feeling low in my stomach on both sides. What will be will be I'm sure :)Quote:

What day are you netti? Sorry girls, my due date thread is not very active so I still check in with you girls throughout the day!lol Hope you don't mind!
I saw where someone had sharp cramps 5 dpo. I had the exact same thing on 6 dpo and I do not remember doing it with my boy either. Ended with a BFP so maybe that's a good sign for you! :) :) :)
Gah. 8DPO and I am not enjoying this 2WW. I get so frustrated at this point because it's "so close and yet so far" to knowing whether or not this month worked. I do not want to drive myself crazy testing everyday but it is soooo hard not to test everyday.
Vent over.
CD4 for me. Should O on Oct 23rd. I'm going to cut down on alcohol this cycle since studies show that more than 4 servings a week lower the chance of conception and I'm going to switch to decaf espresso in the TTW too since studies show that even one serving of caffeine a day can affect implantation. When I got my BFP last time I wasn't doing any caffeine at all in the TWW, just a cup of hot milk with cinnamon, vanilla extract, and honey.Quote:

No fun and it makes me sad that my boys will have to both leave their amazing charter schools that they're currently at and love.
I know what you mean mommymachine! I'm also 8dpo and I'm so tempted to test tomorrow. lol I got a bfp with DS2 at 9dpo so part of me wants to test then the other part of me says no, don't bother. Ah!
Hopper, I had bad AF type cramps in the TWW with DS1 and thought for sure I wasn't pregnant. I had period like cramping yesterday but I'm trying not to get too excited over it. FXFX it's a good sign for us though!
That is a lot of commuting for your DH essence. I hope you can find something closer quickly!
We are pretty lucky and only 15-20 minutes out from the city here.. although it is substantially smaller than LA :)
I have switched to decaf coffee as caffeine can cause issues with pcos, I managed to find one that doesn't taste too bad. I still drink tea too so I will switch that to decaf now.
I think today might be O day so hopefully my temps go up the next few days... finally I might be in the TWW :)
Mommymachine and ksmom so excited we have some testers so close!! Fx for you both! We need some bfps!!
Boysboys you are always welcome here! How are you feeling and how far along are you now?
Netti that sucks! But remember 12 hours can make a big difference! Will you be testing again this arvy?
Essnce sorry to hear you have to move, such a stressful experience! FF has me oing on the 23rd as well so we might be cycle buddies :)
Fx Purple! Let us know how your temp goes in the morning!Quote:
