One day more!

This song brings me a kind of malacholic feeling of TTCing. The pain of waiting. But yet we still strive...

Valjean: One day more. Another day, another destiny, This neverending road to Calvary. These men who seem to know my crime will surely come a second time. One day more.

Marius: I did not live until today. How can I live when we are parted?

Valjean: One day more.

Marius and Cosette: Tomorrow you'll be worlds away. And yet with you my world has started.

Eponine: One more day all on my own.

Marius and Cosette: Will we ever meet again?

Eponine: One more day with him not caring.

Marius and Cosette: I was born to be with you.

Eponine:What a life I might have known.

Marius and Cosette:And I swear I will be true.

Eponine: But he never saw me there.

Enjolras: One more day before the storm!

Marius: Do I follow where she goes?

Enjolras: At the barricades of freedom.

Marius: Shall I join my brothers there?

Enjolras: When our ranks begin to form,

Marius: Do I stay, and do I dare?

Enjolras: Will you take your place with me?

Chorus: The time is now. The day is here.

Valjean: One day more!

Javert: One more day to revolution We will nip it in the bud. I will join these little schoolboys, They will wet themselves with blood.

Valjean: One day more!

Thernadiers: Watch 'em run amuck Catch 'em as they fall. Never know your luck when there's a free-for-all.Here a little dip There a little touch. Most of them are gonners so they won't miss much!

Rebel Students: One day to a new beginning Raise the flag of freedom high. Every man will be a king. Every man will be a king. There's a new world for the winning. There's a new world to be won. Do you hear the people sing?

Marius: My place is hereI fight with you.

Valjean: One day more!

Marius and Cosette: I did not live until today

Eponine: One more day all on my own.

Javert: I will learn their little secrets,I will know the things they know.

Valjean: One day more!

Thenardiers: Watch 'em run amuck. Catch 'em as they fall,Never know your luck when there's a free-for-all.

Javert: I will join these little schoolboys

Valjean: Tomorrow we'll be far away Tomorrow is the judgment day.

All: Tomorrow we'll discover What our God in heaven has in store. One more dawn. One more day. One day more!

Review: I used this on top of my BIOessence Tanaka whitening essence & ecurine's Pimple concealer cream. It stayed well for 5 hrs, shine all over but i can still see the coverage of the BB Cream. With the shine only about 20 % of the coverage was jone.

Day 2 using abit more & just the BB cream alone as skincare & foundation. The coverage is not bad, around 7/10 nearly equal to foundation. But still 90% coverage 4 hrs after use. Shine has appeared as well. I can still see my pimple scars -Perhaps i should use more product tomorrow to find out.

I suppose it will be better with loose powder on top of this.

Day 3 used more BB cream with a YSL MAttifying Liquid foundation.
SHine by noon time. But by the end of the day I still have the Made up look. Lose about 20-30% of the coverage. (usually by the end of the day i would look like i didnt apply makeup)
Shine maintained by the end of the day - didnt get oilier. Comfortable shine.

Day 4 BB Cream with a moisturiser & YSL mattifying liquid Foundation & loose powder.

SHine same by noon time

Can still see pimple & pimple scars if standing near.

Finish off with wiping the left over wetness of the mask on your shoulders, neck, & even chest or legs.

OPK/HPT help & reads

From what i learn

If your CD around 30 days - you should expect to O around 15 right, test Opks from CD10-20.
Continue until u get a positive. < ---important

Why start so early CD 10 - cos if u dont u wont know what's the difference between a positive & negative opk as well.

How to spot an Ovulation with OPKS: if the test line (there is a control line as well) is faint its negative.

Only when its same colour as test line or darker then its a positive Ovulation. When u test Positive on OPK you will Ovulate around 12-24 hrs or later. So BD within 12-24 hrs & again alternate.

Something i read from Fertility friend, treat the next 5 days after u see a positive on your Opk as FERTILE & BD alternate days (cos everyday sperm quality will decrease - tired also mah) Why continue till u get an O.

I Oed CD15-16 in Feb, Then in March I Oed CD 20-21. So its possible for Ovulation dates to change. If you followed instructions strictly 10 strips a mth you will lose your O opportunity & one cycle will be gone.

Why these strips?
I dont know if they are the most reliable ones in the market but most of us use it. Many have striked with them & many have found their Ovulation dates with them & since you want to be KS & monitor maybe even every day & nite. These 40-50cents strips makes sense over the , over the counter ones that costs $10-13/strip.


BBT Thermometor
I recommend u get one too cos - double confirmation is better to find your Ovulation.

Usually BBT is LOWEST when you are Ovulating. Cos OPK can show positive for 2 days. what if u forgot to test day 1 & test day 2 then if u take BBT faithfully - u still know U Oing.

Similarily if you Ran out of OPKS for eg & enough only to test once a day - with the BBT you can also accurately tell when u Ovulated.

The idea is egg lasts 24 hrs Sperm lasts around 72 hrs. its best to Baby Dance (BD) when you are actually Oing thus the emphasis on the O date.

Further tips:-
Hope that is enough help to start u on. usually 30 day cycle i would myself start testing on day 10 to form a chart with fertility friend so that i can monitor. if u confident surely after 14 then you Ovulate you can start OPKs 1-2 days before that lor.

If your O dont come with LOW BBT & u monitor basal body temp as well, then hor - continue OPK maybe O was late & Opk gave wrong reading - due to medication or what ever.

to be KS BD 12-24 hrs after OPK is positive + BBT is lowest. If you only see OPK +, continue OPK & BBT when u see + opk & low BBT again BD.
