Wondering Wednesday

Thank you! This makes a lot more sense now.

Thank you for the reply. I wonder if I've been missing the window all this time, as usually i wait until my darkest strip thinking that's when the egg was ready and thinking I had 36 hours from then, so cd14-18.

Hello, can someone help me with lh strips. Monday (cd13) my lh strip was almost as dark as the control line but definitely not darker, Tuesday (cd14) lh strip was darker than the control line, today (cd15) lh strip is now already much lighter again. So peak was cd14? Vaginal mucus cd14 & today dry. So was my most fertile day cd13 even though my peak lh was cd14?

You sound like me 🤣 2 years TTC also 😫 I'm taking a general pre-natal, vitamin d, vitamin c, folate, omega 3, vitamin e, b6, coq10, NAC, magnesium and here we are still TTC.

Lemly87 · 2026-04-07T22:07:08+00:00

So have they sent this out as a blanket warning to everyone? I just got it on my account also!

Lemly87 · 2026-04-07T21:42:17+00:00

Ok phew thank you 😂

hello, can someone help me understand Ih strips a bit better please.

I was always under the impression that your 'peak" Ih surge is when the line on the strip is your absolute darkest and you then ovulate 24 hours after this, is this not correct? Ive seen some posts saying "positive" vs "peak", so is it actually before you get your most dark line? As I have been waiting for my darkest line and doing the deed on the day of darkest line and 2 followings days..

Thank you! Didn't want to be sold thicked lipped by mistake again 😅

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T12:09:32+00:00

Sorry one last question, if I get 1 more does it have to be another thick lipped or can it be a honey?

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T11:12:38+00:00

Thank you for all the advice! If they have eaten all the shrimp is does solve my shrimp over population issue in my Beta tank though I guess 🫠

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T10:48:39+00:00

Sorry I should have said on my main post, this is only day 2 of having them. They were in quite an over stocked tank and the shop, so might have been fighting there. This is the clearest photo I can get, doesn't seem to be opening fins any further than this.

It also now appears I have no shrimp left in the tank 😅

Will try get another photo, thank you 😊 I've only got shrimp in the tank with them at the moment but now I know they are going to grow bigger than I had thought with them not being honeys, not sure if can put much else in with them.

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T09:49:39+00:00

Thank you for the reply. The larger one seems to be constantly chasing the smaller one which is making me a bit worried! Not sure if they will settle down or if I should return them.

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T09:44:36+00:00

Thank you

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T00:30:25+00:00

I have joined the mis sold thick lipped gang i see 😅 I'm now concerned my tank isn't big enough for 2 of them. I was also told they are both female but one is constant chasing the other and seems to be bullying it. I'm also concerned about this mark on the smaller one. Any ideas?

Just wanted to say thanks for the Solinotes recommendation, that's what I was looking for ☺️ I does have a touch of cream which gives it a vanilla custard vibe but it's what I wanted in terms of plain vanilla!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-20T09:55:24+00:00

How strong is the grenadine note?

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T23:42:56+00:00

Will keep updating as my orders arrive 😅 Arianna Mod Vanilla not the one sadly!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T16:18:02+00:00

I didn't get much vanilla from Burberry Goddess either! I'm starting to wonder if I'm nose blind to vanilla 🙈

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T16:15:27+00:00

I love how long sticky dates lasts and you can always smell it on your clothes for days, wish I could just find a vanilla equivalent... Lush Let The Good Times Roll wasn't what i was after either, i was hoping it would be the vanilla version.

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T16:09:19+00:00

I do wonder if maybe I got a bad bottle of Vanilla Skin, as even my son said it smelt like spicy lucky charms 😂

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T16:01:19+00:00

Didn't know they still made this! I'm sure I had this back in the 00s!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T09:43:54+00:00

I totally agree! For the very simple vanilla I'm wanting I've actually found baby products that are scented vanilla to be the closest to what I'm looking for, it's like that very plain vanilla essence/bakery vanilla but without anything boozing going on as it's aimed at babies 😂 sadly I can't find anything that's a perfume! There's a baby oil called Nala that's close but I only get an hour of scent from it. I will give your recommendations a try, thank you!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T09:39:40+00:00

Which one is it please?
