June 2018 TTC & 2ww thread

[Heart desires pink LP]

Thank you ladies for the quick responses. Love the support and positivity here.

Here's an update I want to share.

It's CD 18, late night and still - ve opk, but lines are getting darker than earlier.

So I'm guessing tomorrow (CD 19) by evening, I should be showing a +ve OPK, which means I will likely ovulate on CD 20. My BD attempt from CD 16 is likely pointless, given the current scenario. I think it also really lowers my chances of conception.

I will plan to BD tomorrow night. This puts me at an attempt on + ve OPK AND follows 72 hours since earlier attempt, which is hopefully still pink friendly.

Wish me luck! Kicking myself for BDing on CD16 (last month I got +ve opk on CD 17, and hence the stupid decision). I really wanted one attempt, but looks like I have to have 2 attempts this cycle. I hope the 72 hours will help alleviate this in some way!
Pink fairy dust to you all :-)

Welcome hearts desire! How long have you been ttc?
Hopeful, I’m 41 and I do sometimes ovulate on the same day as pos opk. I have also read somewhere about the surge being shorter when you are in your forties but I don’t know how true it is.
Hi abc! Can’t wait to hear how your scan went. Will you post here too and let us know? I have everything crossed for you.

This is my first cycle in TTC. I'm 29. I usually have late ovulation. Pink dust to you!

I completely understand your dilemma and it is such a tough time making the decision. If it’s your first month ttc you might want to really stick to your guns with the one attempt if that is really important to you. But if your in a rush to conceive maybe again at +ve opk. All depends when it turns positive too.

The other ladies are better at this decision stuff than me do I’m sure they’ll help you out! I wish you every success in fulfilling your desire 🤞🏻

Atomic recommends the 72hour version to a lot of people, I think all or most of us here do 72hour when doing e4d’s. Slightly less pink but higher conception. Wishing you so much luck

Yes, tomorrow is Saturday for me, so I hope O doesn't happen day of positive OPK or before I can get my attempt in. The 5pm OPK today was close to positive.
So Attempt 2 will be 72-96 hrs after attempt 1 and maybe day of positive OPK. Closer to 84. Fingers crossed!
Last time I went on vacation to beach and ate a lot I ended up getting pregnant with a sway opposite a month or two later. This time I hope for a good sway but will be OK with a healthy baby boy or girl.

Aargh girls I don’t know what to do! Just used a cheapie as no frer left to do final check before drinking commences and it has a faint line. I’ve done three more and the same result. I should believe the frer right?!

Hmmmm..... with your history of cheapies.... have you switches brands? Different batch? I'd believe the FRER, but my friend just told me about her experience and a particular brand picked up her positive before FRER.
