Morning Ladies....
Just a quote i stumbled across today...
"Dont be discouraged,its often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock"

@ Carien, good luck in the TWW.

AFM, I am CD3 and AF is so light and then disappears This is different to all my other cycles so it seems like it is a bad start for our first month ttc

Morning ladies, hope everyone is well

I am officially in the TWW at 1DPO. Have read a few things about bromelain supplements (which is a concentrated form of the core of a pineapple) that aids in implantation. Basically its a natural anti-inflammatory agent that increases blood flow. But you cant take it very long b/c it can cause uterine contractions, so only 1-5DPO so have started taking that today as well, anything that helps I think at the moment.

Other than that, nothing to report @Cands - hope you get some answers from the FS today!

Have a nice day ladies!

To all the ladies who are having trouble with the OPK's good luck and hope that we can get answers as I am having the same problem!

I have been researching OPK's and never had any luck with them previously but tried them my previous cycle and now with this cycle seen that we are actively ttc.

With the normal stick OPK's one should test 3x times a day leading up to ovulation and then they recommend 3-4 times a day closer to ovulation. In a perfect world the line should each day get darker than the control line and for some people it then even gets darker than the control line before it starts fading (the darkest point is called the blazing OPK) then one should ovulate 24-36h after the "blazing" OPK.

If one only uses the ClearBlue Digital Smiley, as soon as one gets a smiley it means that one has reached the "equal to control" line but for some people it is still a few days from that as the line needs to get darker than the control line which the CB digital can't detect as it only gives the smiley when one reaches the "equal to control line".

We are trying to BD as close to ovulation as possible but now I am not sure when I ovulate as have been using the CB digital and been having such trouble

Hi ladies

What a crazy day, huge headache

OPK's are super confusing, I got a dark line on the 11th but not as dark as the control line and then on the 12th it started getting lighter so I accepted the 11th as my surge, otherwise I probably would of became down again.

I am still trying to get a pic of yesterdays test but I keep blurring the pic's I'll try again when I get home and just let you judge.

I did a test last night that showed nothing and then again this morning which seemed like it gave another faint line but not as clear as yesterdays. I am using pink dye as I also have read a lot of bad things about blue dye. I am not getting exited yet but will try and test only Saturday again. AF is due any time between the 25th and 27th so there is still hope. What a great gift it will be from our angel if there is a brother or sister on the way

Praying for all of you
