So exciting Mandy!!!! I hope tomorrow's test is a BFP!

Yes that is what I am worried about. Stressing over if a temp is too low. We will see. I know I ovulated, and I know the due date would be March 1st if I get pregnant, so maybe that is enough to "know" right now. I will think about it.

[Magical22]

Good luck Mandy!!!

Ugh I have terrible cramps already. Pretty sure this isn't my month. I do not really want to Ttc next month bc due date would be so close to ds4's and that would Suck but hubby says if we don't and then run into trouble we'll be wishing we took every opportunity. He's so right. I just wish we could land it this month....

Hitme you're 7 dpo? Do you normally get cramps that early? Your chart looked so good!

[TiffSal]

Good luck guys. Welcome Taytum.

Hitme, I keep tracking my temp as I get a temp drop couple days before Af shows. I think if pregnant, your temp will stay up and rise. Good luck x

Def out ladies :-(. Horrible slow starting AF that took 4 days to get going from spotting and kept leaving me hoping it was implantation bleeding - but she arrived in full force in the night! And temps down this morning. Feeling glum - I remember this horrible feeling from TTC in the past, and the slightly surprised feeling as to how on earth it didn't work - I mean, there were how many millions of little swimmers in the right place at the right time and NONE of them were successful?!

GL to the rest of you ladies, I will be back in a few weeks!

[TiffSal]

Sorry to hear fox. I know that feeling and i would get so disappointed in the first few days after af 😣

[Foxcubblue]

Yes yes YES! Looks like a BFP to me Mandy (did the second line appear within the ten mins?). Wohoo!

Magical - LOVED the great sperm race when I watched it on TV a couple of years ago, have been trying to find it again ever since so will have another hunt on YouTube now!

[True Blue]

I have seen it but will be looking on YouTube for it again now :)

[mandyp85]

Thank you ladies :) I will test again in a couple of days and just hope it's still there and darker. My worry is the bleeding has got heavier, not like a normal period but it's not just spotting anymore. Yes fox I think it did, it wasn't there straight away so I put it down, checked my phone then went back to it and the line was there.

[Pbn3]

Wow congrats Mandy!! That looks like a bfp to me!! I'm sure and hopefuls the spotting/bleeding stops. Our first positive yay!!

Wow mandyp85....i can see tht line ...so happy for u with my younger dd i saw the same kind of line :)
Wishing u all the best ...

[maidentomother]

Thanks! I was hoping it was incorrect. What makes you say CD17 vs CD16 though?

The big temp jump occurred after CD17. Also, often O occurs on the day after your last day of fertile CM. I would guess you probably Oed pretty early on CD17, possibly even before temping but not enough time had passed for your P levels and thus temp to jump. Hope that makes sense.

It is super common for temps to rise for a few days right before O. I.e., O doesn't always occur on the day with a particularly low temp.

[ImmiNAddi]

I see it Mandy! ;) Congrats - hope you get a darker one in the days to come xx

[True Blue]

Maiden does my O day look right?

How are you doing? What have you been up to :) xx

[ImmiNAddi]

Ladies who are online now - question.....? I am on cycle day 9, just wondering if I had a BD tonight (for fun, not as an attempt) am I ok to not use protection and it wouldn't count as an attempt? Last cycle I ovulated on day 17.... I am going for 1 attempt at pos opk this month.... t.i.a

[Pbn3]

Pretty sure you'd be ok :) have you consistently oed cd 15+?

[ImmiNAddi]

Pretty sure you'd be ok :) have you consistently oed cd 15+?

Yep, pretty much!

[ImmiNAddi]

Just thought it would give hubby a test run without the stress before the 'big day' next weekend (he will still have a release in between now and then, but not 'together'... god the stuff we tell each other on here... lol! Never would I be chatting to my real life friends about this stuff... haha!)

[Pbn3]

Yep, pretty much!
Then I'd say go for it have fun, good way to chill out and relax lol

Oh yes lol!! as in what we will say on this site lol. I admitted going to an adult shop first time in my life to get dh a dvd for 3-4 day release without me hahaha

[maidentomother]

TrueBlue, I think it is quite likely you Oed a day later than FF thinks.

mommymachine, I DEFINITELY think you Oed a day later.

Fx for you both! Your BDing looks perfect.

[True Blue]

I think you could be right maiden that's what's been bothering me :) TY!!

[Hitmebabyonemoretime]

Wow! Seems like a lots happened! That's a BFP!!! I hope the bleeding stops.

Pbn3 - I don't know what normal is for me since I've only had 2 cycles so far since PP. I had a temp dip today
http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/06/13/9f277a3a1b3d329de175a687911ddc58.jpg
Still good and what I hope to see now is another shift up. I was gonna test today but wound up testing yesterday and it was stark white - so I kinda don't want to tests again today. So soon really. Tomorrow will be 8dpo and a more reasonable test frame. Pms symptoms continue.

I would risk it!

Mandy, congrats on your BFP and prayers for a sticky bean and no more bleeding.

True, thanks for asking....not much going on, I've been VERY unwell the past 3 weeks or so, sleeping 16 hours a day and barely awake the rest of the time. Just incredibly exhausted all the time beyond the norm, possibly it's linked to my pain which has been far worse also. Then last cycle and this cycle I had super delayed O, and I couldn't figure out why....but I think it was the super high dose of fish oil I was taking. I dropped down in dose several days ago and just Oed. Very painful O! I has a cyst rupture on CD4 this cycle and it was awful, I thought I had appendicitis at first. So not a very good time recently. :/

I have been considering attempting next month if I could get Clomid in time but I doubt I'll be functional enough. I think I need antidepressants and they take a month to kick in. So likely I'll just be lurking until September amd then I'll resume swaying in preparation for TTC in December.

Big congrats on your BFP Mandy!! Praying for a sticky bean for you!

[QUOTE=mandyp85;723994
Taytum, did you have more than one attempt in your fertile window? Xxx[/QUOTE]
Unfortunately, no. I'd been out of town two days before O so we BD'ed O+2 and that was it. [emoji17] Frequency not good for a boy sway but I literally was ready to begin Provera day of temp spike so I was not expecting it after a 100+ cycle and 70+ cycle. Here's to hoping my diet/exercise/supplements are stronger than my timing! [emoji170][emoji92]

I also won't temp this weekend but start back up Monday. Get some rest over the weekend!

Maiden - sorry to hear about your pain and struggles. I wondered about the delayed O when I saw your chart. I've never (I don't think) had a cyst rupture so I couldn't imagine the pain, but it sounds awful. I hope you're taking care of yourself as well. September will be here before we know it!

Thank you ladies, I'm very nervous at the minute about this bleeding but I'm hoping it stops, I had a full blown "period" with my eldest at this stage so I'm hoping this little bean sticks like he did :)

Maiden, I'm so sorry to hear that you have been so unwell lately, I hope you start to feel better very soon. Xxx

Taytum, all is not lost with the one attempt, me and dh have never been frequent bd'ers (apart from the first few months after we got together) rarely do it more than once a week and we have 3 boys!!! If you are following the he diet I would say you would still have a great shot at a boy :)

[maidentomother]

Thank you so much ladies, I appreciate your kind words, thoughts and sentiments! I've had a few crises in the past several months which I think have been the last straw, so to speak. But I'm looking forward to starting Prozac which has worked well fordme in the past for both depression and anxiety/OCD.

Hitme, your chart looks great!

True, your manual override looks perfect.

Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for this; I've needed it badly thinking I totally messed up. I've been keeping an open mind, and even looked at some posts where those who were girl swaying with one attempt still ended up with a boy. I know it can happen, just need to stop worrying about it, but stories like yours really help! [emoji4][emoji170]

Oh maiden how terrible!! You are going through the mill - it sounds awful. I would love to be able to do something really nice for you, you deserve some serious looking after. I do think giving yourself the month on antidepressants and get yourself into a better place physically & mentally before easing back into swaying. It's very draining all on its own without factoring in outside stresses.
Lots of love & support to you xx

No you can definitely still get a boy with one attempt, I've managed it three times lol was eating a very boy friendly diet and always have when falling pregnant, apart from when I conceived my daughter that is and I was eating very little so I believe diet to be the most important thing :) You're welcome hun :) I will give you all my blue dust :) little boys are just gorgeous, I hope you gets yours :)

Thanks tiffsal! I cant believe you can wait that long lol. I'll be testing from 8dop onwards lol.

In regards to the falling off the wagon diet wise I have my own meat to do list but now that it's getting close to o time I'm feeling a little guilty even thinking about it lol. I may wait yet till af arrives (if I dont get a bpf) and go nuts that day but it's been so long since I've had meat I'm somewhat nervous lol think I'm going abit cookoo!

[TiffSal]

I wouldnt normally wait but is due to have my af the day after my dh bday so i thought i will try to wait until then... maybe lol

I went out the night before 0 and cheated i felt so guilty...the 2ww is long and having to diet as well makes it even longer!! I have stopped the supplements but not eating enough calcium....

When is are ypu due to O?

[Pbn3]

This week yay!! I originally thought friday or Saturday but had a short cycle and possible early o last cycle so maybe even by Wednesday/Thursday...

[TiffSal]

Not long!! Good luck! What is your plan this cycle?

One attempt at positive opk - have shifted to the cb advanced digital in the hope I get a positive opk :) also hoping for some cm this cycle as back up as will dtd regardless if I see any ewcm lol

Thank you, I really hope so, I just keep thinking that surely if it wasn't a sticky bean I wouldn't have had a positive at all while I was still bleeding. I tested Thursday after I started bleeding and it was negative, then got my positive yesterday when the bleeding had picked up so I don't understand it really. Xxx

[Grace]

Pbn3- my cycle is usually 28-30 days long, with a few days of pre-af spotting. But it varies from cycle to cycle. I've had 26 day cycles before. This time I know I ovulated early on cd 10-11, so it makes sense af is early too.

Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

[Pbn3]

Grace that would be a mirror image of my last cycle. 25 days and FF pegged o at cd11. Did you dtd after a pos opk? What cd was bd? Sorry if you've said all this already there's just so many pages to go through lol

[Grace]

Actually, we were planning to take a break from ttc this month, just cause I was getting tired from it all after 6 months. So our last bd was cd8, but since o came early I thought it could count as an attempt. Anyway, I'll try to get some blood work this tuesday, see if we learn something from it.

Bless you, thanks very much :) this is the 2nd time it's happened to me since ttc so I'm not hopeful now. I live in the uk and I have never had a blood test to confirm pregnancy so I guess I will just have to keep testing until they are negative or get darker, thanks for the advice tho :)

Also, what does everyone's cramping feel like? This is only my second time O'ing, but I keep getting cramps/twinges on my right side, which is the side I know I O'ed from.

Tatum - it's probably different for everyone but this cycle I got more intense pain at O time
- like so much that cardio (swaying pink here) was too much.

Happy birthday hit me a bfp for your bday present wpuld be nice 😆😆

[maidentomother]

Taytum, sounds like very standard O/ovary/corpus luteum pain. I get quite a lot of it and my O pain during actual O can be extremely severe, incapacitating.

[TaytumJ]

Thanks for the clarification hitme and Maiden! I know when I got my CP in February I had shooting pain from ovary down to vagina, but this is just slight cramping and twinges. I know every cycle is different, but not having too much experience with O makes me curious.

I'm exited to see those of you testing this week! Everything crossed!

[Hitmebabyonemoretime]

Ladies! I'm spotting! I'm 8 possible 9 dpo. So this is either very good news or kinda bad news. If IB then Yes!!! (Although I WISH I had been better on the diet and cardio in tww...) but if it's Af then kind terribly short luteal phase... Which remember im on Clomid and that's supposed to be great for a short luteal .
Welp. That's my update. Guess I'll know more soon enough.
I binged... Each day for the last 3 I've been increasingly worse with the diet. Tomorrow I'm back on the wagon - just in case im not pg (and I feel lousy from this food ugh).

[momamia4]

FX for IB, hitme!!!! I super hope you get your bfp!!! My cycle has been an exact replica of yours except I haven't spotted at all. I had really severe O pains on the right this cycle and then again on the left the next day.

I've been so bad on the diet the last few days too! I have still been eating girly foods, just more of them. I am going back on the diet super strict tomorrow. DH thinks I'm being ridiculous that I'm already counting myself out this cycle, lol! I guess it is premature. :)

Pbn - I just started testing with the opk's today, there was only a faint faint line, they usually fade in over a few days, so I am thinking I will be Friday or thereabouts ;)

[Pbn3]

We may just be cycle buddies yet lol!

Fx hitme, I hope you get a bfp this month :)

I don't have much to update really, my hpt from this morning is still showing a faint line but my opk is positive!! I'm only on cd5, it just keeps getting earlier and earlier, I really don't understand what is going on and I just feel so confused right now, we will have an attempt tonight, just in case, but I'm not too bothered about catching this cycle as my due date would fall quite close to my middle sons birthday. I just miss food so much lol.

Mandy can you not see a gp for a blood test? It might put your mind at ease :)

[mandyp85]

I may give them a call and see what they say, I just feel like a nuisance as I've already spoken to them twice in the last month about my cycles, they just keep fobbing me off tho :( feel a little like I'm stuck and I don't know what to do about it.

[Pbn3]

Don't feel bad about asking!! Bugger them! They are suppose to be working in the health industry so this is their job regardless of their own personal beliefs. It's been proven so many times that 'mother knows best' and as annoying as that saying is there is some merit in it :)

[mandyp85]

Yes you are right :) thank you for that. I just don't know what to say this time. I'm don't like to cause a fuss but something obviously isn't right. The doc I saw on Friday said she couldn't think of any reason why my cycles might be short!! Which in itself sounds strange and like I'm just being fobbed off.

Mommas I don't know if you are all aware, I wasn't, that we shouldn't take ibuprofen while TTC.
It can delay ovulation and can inhibit implantation.
I took it this cycle for migraines on CD's 11 & 12 and CD 20. Pretty annoyed with myself.

Yes I agree with you there, if she genuinely can't think of anything to explain my short cycles then she can't be a very good doctor in my opinion so I think you're right. Thank you.

Mandy, sometimes an opk will show positive because you are actually pregnant. I have read about that happening. I would go back to the doctor and ask for a blood pregnancy test.

Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

[TaytumJ]

I agree with momamia! I've heard that too - especially if you're still getting + HPT, that you can get +OPK. Can you call OB and request one since you are pregnant, but don't feel line is getting darker? I would definitely request it - it's your right with your body to take charge of it. I really hope they can put your mind at ease!

Yeah I've heard of that happening as well mom so I think ill just give the docs a quick call but I would be surprised if they got me in for a blood test to be honest. Will give them a call then update :)

I know how you feel, if it turns out that I'm not pregnant my last cycle was only 15 days!!! I had my first pos opk cd6!!! Have had one today which is only cd5. It just seems my cycles are getting shorter and shorter. I hope clomid works better for you this month :)

[Foxcubblue]

Urgh, Mandy, UK GPs are so frustrating, aren't they?! One of my daughter's has a potentially very serious birthmark and they were totally useless with us, we had to badger them for ages to get a referral. Don't worry about what they think, just do what is best for you and keep persisting until you get some answers! I know this can be easier said than done :-)

Hitme, sorry to hear you are out this month - I am still lurking on this forum and hoping I can officially rejoin the 2ww before the end of June, if not I will see you in the July 2ww forum! My luteal phase length is making me nervous too this cycle, I started spotting very lightly on 9dpo, then very light bleed before AF arrived properly 12dpo....

Looking forward to hearing more news from you ladies who are waiting to test!

Yeah they really are, sometimes it feels like trying to get blood out of a stone when it comes to getting proper answers out of them, I mean my cycles are not normal so how that doc can say it's not a concern is beyond me, it's like they are reluctant to do anything that costs money unless it's absolutely essential. I hope everything is OK with your daughter, when it comes to children you shouldn't have to pressure them should you, should be better safe than sorry in my opinion.

[TiffSal]

Fertiliy friend has now told me I O on day 16 but im sure it was on day 15 pm because the second line of the test faded. (Which mean negative?)
Not sure if i should trust this chart?

[essnce629]

Tiff, I think your chart is correct. My opks always turn negative the day before or the day of O.

[Pbn3]

Tiff I think it's correct to good luck!!

[maidentomother]

Tiff, CD16 is correct. When your OPK turns negative does NOT tell you when you Oed; the length of the surge is generally not related to how long it tskes your body to respond to the surge I.e. O. Plus, temps are way more accurate than OPKs at determining O.

I really don't know, it seems to be the standard when it comes to fertility issues, the doc told me that and I've read it in numerous places, are you in the uk?

[mandyp85]

So here is my daily update lol, I did another hpt this am and the line is still there, I think it may be slightly darker than yesterday. I have an appt with my gp, the one I was hoping to see in the first place about my strange cycles so I'm hoping I can get a decent answer about everything today, if this is a chemical pregnancy does anybody know if it would likely to be because of my short cycles?

Good luck to everybody waiting to attempt or test :-)

[Pbn3]

Mandy I've read and heard the same however I've also heard of 6 months ttc being something to go on to. And if you've had babies before they seem to think 'well we know you can get pregnant' so no use worrying about doing something till 6-12 months trying. I'm lucky that I've seen the same gp for 7+ years now and she's great! But in saying that even she wasn't willing to refer me to a fs until I'd been ttc for at least 3 months.

Lol we were posting at the same time! Great news about your line still there and slightly darker. Let us know how you go with gp and hard as it is please try and relax a bit. Sending hugs your way

That seems to be the general train of thought with most docs doesn't it "Oh you already have kids so must be fertile" in fact the doc that I saw on Friday said that to me!!! And they should know as well as anyone that that isn't always the case. I would just like to have a definite answer either way so that I can move on, hopefully ill get that today. Thank you :)

Yes...strongly agree mandyp ...my sister in law is trying from 2 years she has pcos and her first one was conceived after 1 1/2 years . Every time she has to listen to the same stuff " u got one naturally ...tht means u r fertile blah blah"
This time she was 15 days late for her period and was very upset as she had one mc 3 months back but the doc refused simply by saying tht we cant do anything ...
By the way there is a family planning clinic which helped her and tested her blood and they were v helpful and all was free of charge ...

It's not fair at all is it, if someone is struggling to conceive they should be given help even if they have conceived naturally before, i hope your sister in law gets pregnant very soon, has she tried seeing a different doc? surely there is something they can do to help her after 2 years! my sister in law is also in a similar position, is currently on clomid (think it's her last cycle now) and she has said if she doesn't get pregnant this time she is just going to give up but I think her docs are quite good, shame they can't all be like that.

I have just got back from seeing my doc and she took blood to test for pregnancy so I should know tomorrow whether I am or not. She has told me to go back in two weeks pregnant or not so I'm hoping if I'm not pregnant we will have the discussion about where to go next. This doc is very relaxed about stuff and if she can help she will. So fingers crossed.

Wow this thread has gotten long! Lots of ladies TTC in June... Anyone else at 9 DPO? I'll probably test tomorrow. We got one attempt in at pos OPK at O-1. I have no symptoms whatsoever so I'm not feeling hopeful. I did have some spotting yesterday and the day before but I also have a yeast infection (gross, I know) and I know that can cause spotting as well, so I can't assume IB.

If this is our month, I'll be disappointed in our sway because I had a terrible cheat day the day before our attempt. Lots of fatty foods and beer, as we were away for our anniversary. But I'll still prefer a BFP over a BFN! I've also been bad during this 2WW too, I suck at the LE diet!

TrueBlue - I definitely think you're too early! FX for you that you get your BFP within the next few days.

mandy - Hopefully you have good news to share with us today. But if not, it sounds like you're in better hands with your new doc.

Mandy - I'm torn when to test. The last time I ovulated on my own I got a BFP 9dpo, but was a chemical. [emoji17] Dr. said as soon as I get a BFP again make an appt for bloods to be drawn - so Friday is 10dpo which I could test, but then I'd have to wait all weekend for results and scared of getting my hopes up again. So I might just wait until 12dpo next Monday. Decisions, decisions! [emoji6] Glad your new doctor seems willing to really help you regardless of outcome! Sounds like you're in good hands.

True - fingers crossed for you! [emoji170][emoji92] I agree - I think it's just too early. Try 9dpo with FRER!

YayBaby - I don't think one cheat day will undue all of your weeks of swaying! I always have those fears, but have been reassured that it's not the end all be all; I hope you got to enjoy your anniversary! [emoji4] everything crossed for a BFP for you; your chart looks good! [emoji166][emoji92]

Taytum I love your will power :)
I want to skip testing tomorrow at 8dpo but I know the first thought when I open my eyes will be a test :D
Good Luck to you when you do test :)

I'm not very hopeful I have zero symptoms but I have to say I would love a surprise BFP I totally won't be expecting it!!!!

[YayBaby678]

You're right TaytumJ, I doubt any of us are perfect with the diet, it is just too hard. I'm just nervous about my cheat day being soooo close to our attempt (and yes, we had a great time for our anniversary :happy:).

Man, it would be hard to wait all weekend to test! I think I would cave and do it Friday if I were you. But I definitely understand you wanting to wait. I think I might have had a CP last cycle and I'm almost glad I don't know for sure. Hoping you get that BFP, you're chart is looking good so far!

[YayBaby678]

Just saw your post TrueBlue, we must have been typing at the same time! Glad to hear you don't think my extreme cheat day should hurt too much! I'm really thinking I'm out this month, I'm spotting again today. I never spot before AF so I'm thinking its from this stupid infection.

Like you, I am having no symptoms. But with my DS, I didn't really have symptoms either at this point, I just remember being really thirsty. So maybe we can hold on to some hope!

[daisy4]

Is anyone still using rephresh or any time of jelly ? I was thinking about dropping it for the next cycle but I am worried that my ph won't be low enough. I am not the best at the le diet

Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

[YayBaby678]

daisy4 - I used RePhresh this cycle and last. If I don't get a BFP this time, I am dropping it along with the antihistamines for next cycle. I suck at the LE diet too and I don't have time for exercise since I have a toddler that doesn't sleep. So even though my sway isn't super strong, I'm hoping my halfway attempt at the LE diet and BD every 4 days works for us.

[daisy4]

Thanks yaybaby I am glad that I am not the only one that has trouble with the diet...I am also thinking of doing every 4 days as well .Goodluck and hope you get a bfp [emoji1]

YayBaby - I have actually seen atomic say that a cheat day even right at O is fine, she even said it might help to ensure that you do ovulate, it certainly won't have a negative affect on your sway :) I have had loads of cheat days lately, been on the diet for 5 months now and I'm just craving chocolate, chicken and curry so I know what ill be doing as soon as I get a bfp ha ha.

Taytum - I know how you feel regarding testing early, I tested early in April and got a bfp but that ended up being a chemical :( I have no willpower when it comes to poas lol I understand you wanting to wait but good luck to you when you do test.

the doc I had today is great, she said pregnant or not she wants to see me again in two weeks, she mentioned me maybe having a short lp so fingers crossed I will get things sorted if this little bean isn't a sticky one (which I hope it is)

Would anyone else bother testing this arvy or wait till morning? Because I've had issues getting pos opks in the past I guess I'm wanting to make sure I dont miss the surge... advice anyone?

I think you are gearing up to ovulate. You probably will within the next 12-24 hours. It is very common to get two days of a flashing smiley on the CB digis- I always did! If you haven't had your attempt yet, I would! O-1 yields best odds of conception by far!!

Well, I just started spotting. It's right on time for af in a few days and completely typical of my cycles. :/ This is the 3rd month of a "whoopsie" (aka DH impatient to start ttc) which was a single attempt in my fertile window (o-1 for 2 cycles & o-2 for 1 cycle). I'm completely shocked that I haven't fallen pregnant yet. I guess I should take that as a sign that my sway has changed things. Hopefully the clomid will work and I'll get lucky next cycle!

So I had another flashing smiley face this morning. Then a couple hours later had some cramping and cm happening. Was thinking I should do another test this arvy to see if it's solid even though your only supposed to test with fmu. I also have one test strip I can use to. Would anyone else bother testing this arvy or wait till morning? Because I've had issues getting pos opks in the past I guess I'm wanting to make sure I dont miss the surge... advice anyone?

If it were me, I would def test again this arvo, especially with the strip one - then again, if it is neg and your smiley face is still flashing.... what will you do? This is where all the guessing/doubting creeps in... Goodluck!! Exciting! :)

Immi if the strip test is negative and still a flashing smiley I'll wait and test again in morning. Suppose to wait for a solid smiley anyway. If strip looks pretty positive I'll do another digital to see if smiley solid and I'll bd if it is. This may change by this arvy lol I'll do the tests and make a decision from there. Testing in t-minus 2hrs 50mins lol!!

Sorry to hear momamia :( your timings have looked great!! Hope the clomid cycle is the one for you!

I did a test that night before going to bed but it was negative. I still bd that night. My +opk was the next day and thought i ovulated that day but ff told me it was the next day....so im hoping 2 days cut off will be enough to have a bfp 25726

Gl guys x

Sorry to hear you ladies have had a bfn, I hope you get lucky next cycle. I think if I am not currently pregnant then I have missed my fertile window this month which is actually a good thing for a few personal reasons. If not pregnant I will make my next attempt early next month :-) Xxx

[Pbn3]

Tiffsal a 2 day cut off is still good odds! If you oed a couple hours after temping even then you've got a great chance! Do you remember feeling anything day of o?

[Pbn3]

Ok so decided tonight is the night. I'll be happy even with an o-2 attempt. Trying to listen to my body more than the tech stuff lol- if anything I'll learn what not to do next cycle!! Here's hoping!!

I hope so. Im due to test next thursday and trying to be patient but so itching!
I thought o happened the day i had my +opk feeling a little a bit of pain that afternoon with a faint negative o trst with strips but turned out i o'ed the next day.

Mandy what did the doctor tell you?

[Pbn3]

Ladies I decided in the end to go for it! So hoping for a temp rise day after tomorrow! Either way I feel good that I listened to my body rather than rely solely on the scientific tests and if I get it wrong this month I'll have learnt not to jump the gun next cycle lol!!

[Pbn3]

Sorry for the duplicate posts everyone just had a hard time deciding and then so excited when I did :) :) :)

[ImmiNAddi]

Good luck Pbn!! Was it nerve racking? Lol

[Pbn3]

Yes!!! But such a relief to have it done with lol :) and thank you! Will be eagerly awaiting temps next couple days!

[TaytumJ]

Good luck, pbn! Glad you feel good about it! Everything crossed this is your BFP!

momamia - so sorry AF showed up. [emoji17] Take care of yourself and keep me updated on Clomid! If I have BFN this time I'm starting Clomid next cycle too!

Thanks taytum!!

[YayBaby678]

mandyp85 - That's good to know that atomic said that about an O day cheat! Definitely takes some of the pressure off to try to do this diet perfectly.

Good luck Pbn3!! And FX for you TiffSal.

Sorry it's not looking promising coveredinblue. Hopefully next month is your month. I'm guessing I'm out this month too. Took a FRER and a Wondfo test this morning, both clearly negative. My temp took a big drop this morning and I'm getting crampy so I'm guessing AF is on her way. I usually only have an 11 day LP so I should know for sure by Friday.

So my spotting stopped completely! I haven't had that happen before. I wonder if it really was IB?? I am afraid to get my hopes up. Ugh. I read that if it was IB, I have to wait 3 days to test again but af is due in 2 days. I guess I'll have an idea of what's going on if af doesn't show up. :D What do you guys think? I'm 12dpo today.

[True Blue]

I'd be cautiously optimistic momamia :) it sounds like all may be ok!!!!

:pray:

I would wait to test, if possible, in three days. I had a teensy amount of spotting at 7DPO and then I tested three days later, when I got my BFP.

FX that AF stays away!!!!

Glad Mandy and XX posted about their spotting and BFPs. I've had some dark brown spotting when using the bathroom today, 8DPO. Just a little when a wipe the first time, but second wipe, nothing. Also cramping right side, hopefully not the start of AF as it would be a short LP. We'll see!

[daisy4]

Goodluck pbn abd hope its IB momamia [emoji1]

That sounds promising Taytum!

[momamia4]

Sounds like IB to me too, Taytum! :D

[mommymachine]

8 DPO and BFN. I know it's early but it's still discouraging because I DID get a BFP will DD1 at 8DPO...so I know it's possible. With DD2 I got a BFN at 8DPO and a BFP at 9DPO. No symptoms. I'm still breast feeding DD2 and I have LOTS of milk today, but that's probably a progesterone symptom not necessarily a pregnancy symptom.

Snap mommy I also had previous 8dpo +.

Not feeling different or anything. I'm hoping we both get shock BFPs ;)

[True Blue]

When you got your BFN 8dpo and went on to get a positive at 9dpo, was the negative stark white negative?

[mommymachine]

I'm pretty sure...it's hard to remember but I'm quite optimistic when it comes to seeing *any* hint of pink and I remember thinking of it as a BFN, and not as a maybe...

I super hope we both get our BFPs tomorrow.

I hope so to :)

I desperately scrutinized my FRER this morning :D it was very negative. It's hard to imagine a positive but I know it can happen :)

[maidentomother]

Pbn3, fx for you!

mommymachine, I really really think you are 7DPO so just too early. But your chart looks great, and so does True's and Taytum's. I'm excited for you ladies testing now/soon!

Junie, I think you probably just Oed on CD34. :) If so you are 1-2 days behind me. Booo for late/unpredictable O though, soooo frustrating!

There is a very slim possibility I could have conceived this cycle, as due to a not totally reliable temp I may have BDed the evening of O instead of O+1 like I thought/my chart shows. Or maybe I released a 2nd egg 2 days after the first, which happens sometimes. I still think pregnancy is very unlikely and I have NOT been swaying for 10w, taking prenatal/fish oil/vit D & gained 5-10lbs, but diet hasn't been great as I've been very unwell the past month, also extra depressed and I just caught lyme's again 2-3w ago. But I would be okay with a March 4-5th baby. My late beloved DH died officially on March 3rd, in spirit the 28th of Feb or 1st of March, and a close DD would be very special. I won't test though unless AF hasnt come by 16DPO. But I hate to even get my hopes up, grr.

[True Blue]

Oh maiden :) that would be fantastic !!! I would just love to see this happen for you. I'm going to have to fish out those cheerleading pompoms again :cheer:

[momamia4]

Well I'm officially out this cycle. Af showed up a few hours ago. GL everyone!! I scheduled my clomid check for 2 days from now. I'm so excited to get it!!!! :)

Sorry for all the ladies who AF paid a visit [emoji20]!

I'm getting really excited for those about to test!!

Maiden- I'm really hoping that after all you have been through that you get a surprise BFP! I know you won't get your hopes up, but I will for you [emoji8]!

[Ashforblue]

Hey ladies!! I'm going to go ahead & join you even though I just got my + opk today, I just am so excited to finally be in the 2ww!! ( well almost) ff says I should O tomorrow... So will count Friday as my 1dpo...

[True Blue]

Yay Ash you got your +opk !!! Did you do a happy dance :oops: I always do :D

[True Blue]

Sorry Momamia :( I was hoping for you!!

[Ashforblue]

Lol, I sure did!!! Am soooo excited! The stinky part is that we are going to a baseball game tonight so will be pretty late when we finally "get to it" hehehe... But we are both sooo excited so won't be a problem!! My problem is getting up at 5:30 am to dtd tomorrow morning!! Eek, not a morning person!!

[True Blue]

Love it :giggle:

[Pbn3]

Maiden that would be a wonderful surprise! Have everything crossed for you!

Hi Ash and yay for pos opk!!!

Afm I tested again this morning and still a flashing smiley but in any case hoping I o today or tomorrow. I'll update in a few days once I have an idea whats gone on :)

Gl to anyone coming up!!

[Foxcubblue]

Gosh, this thread moves so flipping fast!!!!

Momamia, sorry to hear AF has arrived :-(. The spotting beforehand is so frustrating as you spend ages scrutinising it and hoping it will be IB, which just adds to the disappointment! Urgh.

Good luck Ash!!! Enjoy the next couple of days!

[Ashforblue]

Thx Foxclub!! When are you expecting to be in the 2ww again?
