@Inca - Thanks hun! Which mid stream OPKs were those again? If I don't get a BFP this cycle then I go back to temping and testing. You are not out of this race until AF arrives!

Morning Ladies :)

@Thandi: Sorry the witch arrived. There is still time before you move to Jhb! :) So don't give up hope just yet!

@Tanzie: So sorry to hear all that you have been through. Cannot imagine what it must feel like. The good news, it doers sound like you are quite fertile and fall pregnant relatively quickly so holding thumbs for you that it will happen quickly this time as well :)

@Chanti: Eeeek so exciting! 4 sleepies till testing time :) Really hoping for your BFP!

@Nikita: Let's hope that the witch stays away! You're still in the game hun, so don't give up :)

@CarienM: Sorry you had a bad night. Thankfully it's Friday! Hope your little one gets back into routine soon so that Mommy can get some sleep :side:

AFM, I'm CD19. FF drew my coverline that I ovulated on CD16. Not sure if that's possible since I got my first positive opk on CD14. We BD'ed from CD12-CD15 so hoping that there were still some swimmers around if I did ovulate on CD16. We shall see. Like I said not really counting on anything happening this month with this damn tooth abscess and infection. I will be really surprised if it does happen this month.

Oh and by the way, those Midstream opk's really rock! Way better than the clicks brand for sure. Thank you to whoever suggested them :)

Hope you ladies have a fab Friday and weekend :)

Me: 28

@Tanzie - FX that it works for you when you get your BFP. Im glad that atleast they have a plan for you. That's quite interesting about the progesterone shot

Carien - I also know someone with an incompetent cervix and from what I understand it causes later losses (late 2nd / early 3rd trimester). As far as I know they only place the stitch at 13 or 14 weeks so that is unlikely to be a cause for early mc's.

Thandi and tanzy - so sorry af got you both xx
