Chances

[Steffy1]

Im confident that it's been nearly 10dpo and I haven't had any implantation bleeding or signs of pregnancy. I'm due on around the 19th and I'm fairly regular and myself and my partner ttc on day one and day four of my ovulation period. I'm just after some opinions on whether I should have seen signs by now? :-/ is waiting to test after missed period best? I don't think I am this month :(

You can use the online calculator if you pair it with another way. I used the online calculator and CM. It was usually very accurate for me. I couldnt do BBT because of my work schedule. I worked swings and graveyards. When doing BBT you have to take your temp at the same time every day.

Good luck TTC.

Glad I could help :). Dont give up until AF shows her ugly face!  And then it just means another month of having fun in the bedroom instead of puking from morning sickness. Though not everyone does get morning sickness I was a "lucky" one and had it and puked for the first four months straight. I made ttc seem like a cake walk in comparison. I know it's super frustrating getting your hopes up and getting disappointed every month, it too my husband and I 34 months and one miscarriage before finally getting pregnant. I am 31 weeks pregnant now and can't wait to meet my first child. Hang in there!  If you ever have any questions feel free to message me I learned a lot along the way with so many months of ttc and went through SIX OB's!  My current OB recommended using ovulation predictor kits and use Pre seed personal lubricant when having sex as it is a sperm friendly lube that helps sperm get to where it needs to be and live longer where as other lubes slow them down and can even kill sperm.

Ok I will try both of your suggestions... I can't thankyou enough for your help! It's such a relief to hear some encouragement and words of advise! Points are noted and being worked upon as we speak... :D thanks. And all the best :)

yes they are not effective and charting your BBT is good! Look at fertility friend we site and it explains soooo much and has a chart and tells you how to use it and take your bbt! Good luck and lots of woman have no symptoms except being late for AF. Sticky baby dust to you!

Best time to baby dance is the day of ovulation and the day after, you only have a 24 hour window for the egg to live, but up to 5 days with good cervical mucus for the sperm to live. you ahve a 20% chance in any given month

Implant bleeding is also rare so don't worry about that. The best way to know when to have sex is to use an ovulation predictor kit it will give you approx 24 Hr notice of when you will ovulate and that's when you want to have sex. Or have sex every other day. Using the fertility calendars can give you a rough idea of when you will ovulate but it isn't always accurate bc not everyone ovulated at the same time in their cycle.

I mean my fertile period sorry, and I've used an ovulation calculator online to give me the dates... Is this not as effective?? :-/

And I'm glad most symptoms don't come till after missed period, thats a relief thanks...  But should i have had implantation bleeding yet?

[30something13]

what do you mean day one and day four??? How are you charting O time?

[SunWorshiper_26]

Pregnancy symptoms 90% of the time prior to missed AF are all in your head so if you DO have symptoms after O it's either PMS or all in your head so don't get too down yet
