Hitme, I looked it up and the lowest level a Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Test can detect is 50 mIU/ml. A FRER is 25mIU/ml. Apparently the Walmart brand and the $ store brand is also 50 mIU/ml. So since you got the faint + on the $ store one tonight, I bet your digi would be + tomorrow.


Congrats hitme!!


Congratulations Hitme!!! Yaaaay :cheer:

Good Luck everyone lots of baby dust :cheerteam:


Congrats hitme!!

Phew catched up on so much. My youngest DS went well with his scan and was cranky just like his daddy after the anesthetic and just wanted his bottle. Should have the results in a few weeks.

Still battling this damned chest infection. Will certainly be busy over the next few weeks doing some extra shifts at work. Lets hope feeling like complete crap sways girl 😂

Tested and had a negative opk today which i expected but just wanted to check. I think my body is just gearing up to O day and tmro is the start of the fertile phase 😀

Mum to 4 Boys awaiting her Princess


Hitme- BIG CONGRATS!! ���� That's so exciting!! So happy for you! ��

Two - I bet that is a dip before a rise. That's slightly annoying though since you felt pain yesterday. Hopefully you don't have more pain! The two hours during actual O for me this month was excruciating. I hope not the same for you!

Netti - glad things went well with your son! Keep us updated on results!

Momma - love your chart! A friend of mine had a good dip 12dpo, but it went right back up and now she's expecting twins. ��

AFM - highest temp I've had since temping today, and a nice jump! I POAS this morning FRER, but I think BFN. I feel like I saw a vvv faint line, but it was probably because my eyes know exactly where that damn line should be. �� may try again tonight with a Wondfo, or wait and see what temp does tomorrow. And still waiting on that dang progesterone test.

Edit: here's my test for you guys. í*½í¸Š

This thread takes off waaayyy too fast!!!

HUGE CONGRATS hitme!!!!!!!!!! :)

FX for BFPs Taytum, daisy and momamia!

Two I hope you get your shift tomorrow. It looks like today might be an O day dip?

Lauren I definitely think temping would be huge a help in figuring out your cycles. FX that your attempt was perfectly timed!

AFM - Nothing new, 5 DPO at this point so just waiting! Will plan to test at 10 DPO.


Huge congrats Hitme! I'm so happy for you!!!

I'm hoping and praying for you guys- Daisy, Momamia, and Taytum!!!


[emoji170][emoji577][emoji843][emoji602][emoji170]

Thank you everyone!
Momma your chart looks fabulous and thank you for that info on the FRER tests! I can't wait for you to test.
Two I agree - probably just the dip before o. Bet you see your rise at tomorrow's temp reading.

Tatyum! That's a bfp!!! Yessss!!!

Good luck to all the ladies on here this month. It's a real struggle each month but you got this!

Oh and edd is April 20th :)

Taytum, I read the same thing last night about the new frers. I got another evap line today. I think I'm going to get some different tests today. I don't like the evaps because they get me a bit excited until I realize it's only an evap. I wonder what they changed about the frers to make them do that more frequently?

Yes - that's so frustrating momma! I think I'll go get some dollar store ones. I still have some Wondfos so I may try testing tonight with those to see. I don't want to be obsessed though. Trying to stay positive with the high temp at least.

[Junie]

Taytum- I think you're pregnant!!! Buy all the tests and have fun- just make sure to hold your urine long enough :)

Taytum your chart is looking great!! That's a bummer about the FRER they were always so reliable!!
However I hope your one is an early BFP :bluecheer:

[Ashforblue]

I see a line Taytum! Fx for you!

[TaytumJ]

Thanks so much ladies!! You guys are WAY more positive than the other group. They basically said it was fake.

How long do you ladies hold your pee before you POAS again? I may do a Wondfo tonight...I cheated and did one last night and it was a clear BFN lol.

[XXforhubby]

4 hours sweetie! Please remember, I couldn't get a positive pregnancy test to save my life until 21DPO with my DS2!!

I'm loving your chart!!! I would wait and test with the FRER again 14DPO and just use the cheapies until then.

[Junie]

I don't drink much so it is a bit more concentrated and then wait 3-4 hrs. I got 4 different drugstore brands, had IC, and FRER then I compared them all, although one was blue dye which I disregarded. One of the drugstore ones ended up being even clearer then FRER! I would post the brand but it was German. Good luck, I really think this is it for you!

[Laurenk1424]

OPK totally negative today! So that means I got one super dark.. DTD.. The two days of almost positives. I'm feeling good about my timing now!

Taytum- I see a line... but I can't tell if it has color... :fx: for you

What is this about the false +? What did you and momamia read?

[TaytumJ]

I'm holding on to hope and crossing everything I can see a clear answer on my Wondfo tomorrow morning. Thanks so much for your hope and encouragement ladies. You are the best. ��

Two: that's what I think too. Think I see something, but not sure if I see color...

I guess the new FRER are notoriously giving false positives now. I think, from what I gather, they're more clear positives than my test. There's a lot of stories as recently as a few weeks ago.

[Foxcubblue]

Taytum - just dropping in to say I've got everything crossed for you!! Hoping you get good news tomorrow!

[Quinn31]

Good luck Taytum! I hope this is it for you!

So I am 5dpo and starting to freak out. I am not going to test until af is late because the negative test is too heartbreaking for me. I also can tell if af is about to start. What is everyone doing to make the time pass?!?! This is our first month ttc and I forgot how horrific the 2ww is. I actually googled 5dpo symptoms before I talked some sense into myself. I feel like our attempts were good but I know that even if timing is good the chance is less than 25%. Plus I've never gotten pregnant during the first month trying.

[momamia4]

FX, Quinn!!! I usually try to distract myself by taking my kids places. That's the only way I've found to keep myself from obsessively googling everything. Lol!!

Has it been quiet in here today or is my app not refreshing properly?

Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

[twointow83]

I think I O'd! :bigsmile: Cramping has FINALLY stopped (Thank goodness) and CP is moving back towards infertile position. Still EW CM but with a lot more creamy CM mixed in than yesterday. Won't know for sure unless I get a shift tomorrow morning but I think I have. I hope so at least. I was looking online for a short bit last night and found a few things that said if a follicle gets too big before ovulating it becomes a cyst (non-functional/non-ovulating cyst... the bad kind). Given it was 31.55 on Monday and it can grow up to 2.2mm per day, the sooner it pops the better.

I still wonder if the one they said probably wouldn't O ended up Oing, though (twins?? ;) ) Eager to get the 2WW started... I have O'd on CD 15 once in the last 8 years of charting and it resulted in my angel DD pregnancy. Here is hoping it works for me again and I get another pink BFP.... just with a better outcome this time! :nails:

I have been obsessing all day, lol! I've been texting my sister who is also ttc. Turns out she's been trying for a year now and still isn't pregnant. She's trying to decide if it's worth it to keep trying (she's going to be 39 in Oct) or if she should just be done. She has 5 kids but always wanted 6. She doesn't normally talk to me about ttc, so I was surprised she messaged me today.

I think someone asked recently about ages. I'm 32 and DH is 33.

I am fairly certain I just O'd the one since they said I prob wouldn't O the other one but it is fun to toy with the idea of twins :bigsmile: I really do feel SOOOOO much better. I had to take another pain killer this morning but it wore off hours ago and I don't feel any pain at all from my ovaries and after the last few days (with the exception of Monday) the relief is gladly welcomed!!!

[twointow83]

Taytum- I am fairly certain that only the big one O'd since they said they smaller one prob wouldn't but it is fun to toy with the idea of twins :) And, yes, I feel SOOOOOOOOOO much better now. SO much!!!

As for the age question, DH and I are both 32.

Oh the joy, lol. I have several things I need to do too, many of which you mentioned. I am saving them until the 2WW is officially in progress. Something to keep my mind off things.

I just realized that if I did in fact O today my testing day is the same day I go back to school lol. I t is going to be weird to want school to hurry up and start lol. I am enjoying my no kids, no school break. Forgot what it was like to have "me time" lol... and here I am trying to start all over by having another one :giggle:

Hitme, yes, she has in the past. She had infertility problems in the past but she conceived the last 3 kids really easily. So, she thought that would happen again this time but it hasn't. She is trying to decide if it's worth it to see a specialist again or if she should just throw in the towel. I think she should do everything she can until January (which is the deadline she already settled on with her DH). I think she would regret it if she stopped before trying everything she could.

I've totally come to terms with the fact that I very likely will have another boy. Despite all my efforts, im pretty set for boys.
That being said I've decided to tell NO ONE in my real life and I have told Dh were going to toronto for genetics testing at 10 or 11 weeks. It's $350 Canadian but I don't know if that's just for gender or for the harmony type tests (which we have similar screens through out provincial health care anyways) so we'll be for sure getting to know the gender by 11-12 weeks! I won't have to deal with the annoying gender guesses and all that crap for half my pregnancy.

Yeah, I don't blame you. We're going to get the early test too. My mom swayed for a boy. She had 4 daughters and then swayed for both of my brothers. I only meant that you aren't too "vintage" to conceive. That's what I was trying to explain to my sister too.

I used to (still do!) want a little boy so bad it consumed me, so I can relate to the rest of you. That dill be nice to know early and it will be a for sure answer!

AFM - terrible sleep. Tossed and turned, was sweaty all night, felt sick at one point. Had a dream I got a BFP so I hope that's true! Temp was taken about s half an hour early though.

Taytum- Your chart looks great! Your LP last cycle was 10 days so it looks like AF is going to be late! When did you say you plan to test??

[TaytumJ]

Yes - celebrating small victories with a longer LP at the least! �� I tested this AM on a Wondfo and it was a BFN. Trying to wait until tomorrow morning to test with my other FRER. I'm still only 11dpo so still early, it sometimes gets frustrating when you hear others get their BFPs early! I still have my FRER shadow line from yesterday to fall back on though lol. I did invert it and there's a line there, just don't want to get my hopes up with an evap.

I'm going to wear white pants to work today. If AF is coming she'll definitely come today then.

Taytum I do see a line for sure I hope when you use your next one you will have a stronger line - I have a good feeling for you :)

[Hitmebabyonemoretime]

Yeah, I don't blame you. We're going to get the early test too. My mom swayed for a boy. She had 4 daughters and then swayed for both of my brothers. I only meant that you aren't too "vintage" to conceive. That's what I was trying to explain to my sister too.

My high risk doc wants to run the same test when I get preg.. assuming a sticky bean that is. But we have to wait till 12 weeks. We'll still know early though and no wondering if they could be wrong. God bless whoever came up with that test lol

Two, im trying to figure out how the tests all work. What if it's b/g twins for instance. I do have a secret desire for twins :) I know they look for the y, so I guess if there is any Y you have to wait for ultrasound to be sure?

Magical that's exactly our plan. I really hope I can hide the belly that long - I tend to get big fast lol

Yes, seeing a Y cell definitely would make it easier to distinguish from momma's cells. My guess is that they do like they do if forensics (where they can manage to find a single drop of the perps blood hidden in the victims) and take a sample, spin the whole sample down and look for varying DNA. I am no expert at this but that is my guess. :shrug:

[TaytumJ]

Thanks, Two! I'll take everything crossed! Now though I probably will have to toss and turn again all night...just so anxious! ��

True - you can't really see the line very well in the attachment, but on my phone I see it clearly! Soooo...hanging on to hope!

Yes!! Wake up everyone!! BFPs to be had!

[XXforhubby]

For twins the MaterniT21 test can differentiate the difference. It will come back Y detected without a percentage and the doctor will request more testing. I've had some friends get told there was a likelihood of B/G twins and it was confirmed later.

That is why I chose that test. Harmony can detect that too at a lower %. Verify cannot and neither can Panorama.


[emoji170][emoji577][emoji843][emoji602][emoji170]

[tfahn]

Ugghh I wish my temps would go up a bit, I'm on CD11 and I never have this many low temps in a row. I have a feeling I will be O'ing later this cycle.

I am 38(39 in 2 months) and Dh is 37. I got pregnant with DD1 at 36 and had her when I was 37. Hoping at this point just to get pregnant again, was swaying for a boy but I would be happy with either for #2. DH wants another just as much, he gets disappointed every BFN cycle too which I think makes me feel even worse when it doesn't happen.

I had the genetic testing done with DD#1 at 10 weeks, it was great knowing it was a girl at 11 weeks since I really thought I would be having a boy. It took a day to wrap my head around having a girl but can't imagine not having a girl now, I have embraced the pink!. I believe when I had testing done they said if it is twins they can only look to see if there is a Y chromosome and would have to wait for ultrasound to verify if it was 1 or 2 boys.

Fingers crossed for you Taytum

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Progesterone levels are no guarantee of a BFP but levels that high are a good sign! Pre-O your prog is usually 5-10. Prog levels after O vary but are usually 10+. Anything less than 10 will usually get you put on prog if you are preg so a level as high as hers, while no guarantee of a BFP, is a very good sign :)

[twointow83]

FX for you Taytum! I have a good feeling this is your month! Great news about your progesterone test :)

Two - woo hooooo! Officially in the 2WW :D

tfahn - why do you need your temps to go up before O? Sorry if this is a dumb question! Seems like your temps are normal pre-O temps... And I'm the same as two, sometimes I get a glaring positive out of nowhere!

AFM - I'm 6 DPO and I'm not getting the temp jumps that I usually do after O (or maybe my chart just looks weird because my pre-O temps are usually lower). And when I search charts like mine in the gallery based on temps and BD pattern, the percentage of pregnancy is low. So I'm not going to get my hopes up for this month. If we move on to next month I'll definitely be adding at least another attempt. Would you ladies add just one more attempt or shoot for BD everyday? What do you think is better for a girl sway even though neither are ideal?

I am taking clomid and the longer you are on it it starts to work against you. So, if no BFP this cycle I think I am going to go to E3D. I hesitate to do it because I did get preg last month, it just didn't stick. But my timing was good last month and agian this month and if I can't get a sticky bean then boy or girl really doesn't matter. Just something I am chewing on a bit... haven't decided yet. Hubby is getting frustrated that we are not listening to the doc and doing EOD so I am dealing with that. Plan to BD tonight. Pretty sure it will be too late to have any affect but DH is pushing fir another attempt so I figured I'd give him this one esp since there is next to no chance of it being in time to affect anything.

Yeah I doubt at this point BD tonight will make a difference since your O pains are long gone and your temp went up. I didn't realize Clomid did that, interesting to know. Maybe next month we'll just go to E3D too, I don't know. I feel like that could still only give us one attempt and I really don't think I'm going to get pregnant with only one attempt. We tried with BD pretty much every day in the fertile window for DS and it still took 5 months.

[momamia4]

Taytum, that's awesome!! I think I was actually only 6dpo when I had mine drawn. I don't really know anything about the progesterone. Mine was 16 at 6dpo.

Estrogen, like all the sex hormones, takes its own sweet time to raise and lower. So we have a small window of opportunity (different for every person) during which we can safely take Clomid and get pg while taking it. The longer you stay on Clomid, the lower your estrogen will go and you NEED estrogen to conceive and carry a baby. When swaying on Clomid, one must NEVER lose sight of the tininess of this window! It is safest to get pg on Clomid during the first 1-3 months of taking it and you cannot take it longer than 6 months or you might as well be taking a birth control pill. If your doctor prescribes it for you for longer than 6 months, seek a second opinion.

Additionally, there are other reasons to limit the amount of time you spend on Clomid. Firstly, Clomid raises testosterone. So the longer you stay on it, not only does your estrogen drop, but your T actually rises, which is bad news for pink swayers and anyone with PCOS.

I think I am just used to my temps being more up and down, and it almost always goes up before dropping at O. I also fear that my hormones are out of whack with stopping breastfeeding a few months ago and that is why maybe my temps seem lower then ever, both before and after O. After I stopped breastfeeding I started to gain wait and am having trouble dropping it, so I am blaming hormones (I probably just need to eat less, lol). I think I am going to have to go on a lower carb diet ( basically give up my bread and pasta) to get some weight off as I am already overweight so I know that is not helping TTC. At this point I just want to get pregnant and each passing month I worry less about gender swaying. DH really does not have a preference, he would just like a second child. I guess if I have another BFN this month I will go to the DR and get my blood work done so I can get my thyroid and hormone levels checked.

I am scared of EVERYTHING when I am preg. I pretty much do whatever (with exceptions like alcohol and such) during the first week of the 2WW but after 6 DPO I really watch what I am doing.... so I am prob not the best person to answer.

My concern would be that animals, just like ppl, have their own moods and personalities. You'd have no way of knowing if the horse would be in a mood or get spooked and take off... or worse, kick you off. Just food for thought...

DD#1 is 20 months now, we stopped preventing when she was around 6 months old (Condoms suck and I had been on BCP for 18 years so I didn't want to go back on them). Wasn't a whole lot of BD activity going on anyways between both of use working full time and breastfeeding/pumping so I just tried to watch where I was in my cycle to prevent. We got serious about #2 in April so I guess this is month 5 of TTC. I got pregnant with DD1 on cycle 3 of trying.

Well, bad news. Just got off the phone with the RE's office. It's looking like it's either ectopic or going to be a miscarriage. The nurse was very sorry that my level was so low. It's only at 9. So, I have to go back in on Monday morning for another blood draw, unless I start bleeding or having severe cramping. Then I have to go to the ER. Ugh. I was afraid of this. :tissue:

DD#1 is 20 months now, we stopped preventing when she was around 6 months old (Condoms suck and I had been on BCP for 18 years so I didn't want to go back on them). Wasn't a whole lot of BD activity going on anyways between both of use working full time and breastfeeding/pumping so I just tried to watch where I was in my cycle to prevent. We got serious about #2 in April so I guess this is month 5 of TTC. I got pregnant with DD1 on cycle 3 of trying.

We have similar stories, except I have a DS and you have a DD :D My DS is now 20 months too. I was also on BCP for a long time (12 years) before DS and didn't want to go back on it after he was born either. But I didn't get a period until he was almost 14 months since I didn't fully wean from breastfeeding/pumping until 13 months. We started TTC in April as well but I'm in the 2WW of my 4th month TTC so we're a few weeks off from each other in our cycles. FX that you O soon and move on to the 2WW!!

Hitme, I think part of the problem is that they think I'm 14dpo and I'm pretty sure I'm only 12dpo. They automatically take the first peak opk as the day of ovulation, which I think is stupid. I don't know why they don't go by temps. Anyway, I've read a few posts in other forums where the ladies had similar levels to mine and everything turned out ok but others where it was a miscarriage. So, now I'll have to wait until Monday to know more. What a horrible way to spend a weekend. At least we aren't doing much.

Anyone feel completely defeated every month? This is our first month and I'm only 6dpo and I already feel like af is coming. I even got the typical tingly af cramps and light ovary cramps. I felt so confident a couple days ago. I'm sure it's because last dd took 1.5 years to conceive that I feel like it won't happen. I don't get how we got pregnant fast twice and then a long time the next. Ugh, I guess I'm not mentally ready for this ttc process!!

[twointow83]

Well, bad news. Just got off the phone with the RE's office. It's looking like it's either ectopic or going to be a miscarriage. The nurse was very sorry that my level was so low. It's only at 9. So, I have to go back in on Monday morning for another blood draw, unless I start bleeding or having severe cramping. Then I have to go to the ER. Ugh. I was afraid of this. :tissue:

No kidding lol. It's a BFP BOOM up in here lol.

[Kitty0911]

I'm sorry moma :( My niece went through something similar. She went in for a blood draw before her missed period (she got a positive test but was bleeding) and they called her back to tell her her pregnancy wasn't viable (her level was 10). She demanded to have her blood drawn again after 48 hours. They gave her a hard time, but she eventually got her second blood draw. Her levels had tripled by then and they did a blood draw every 48 hours over quite a few days. It kept tripling until it reached the 2000 mark. I think she is 10 weeks or so now-- but if it is possible I'd ask for a second test. I think some pregnancies just start out a little slower.

Thanks Kitty, two, and daisy! :D I found a website called: The BetaBase (http://www.betabase.info/index.html). According to the levels on there (which are reported by actual women who have gone on to have actual babies), I could totally have a viable pregnancy and have a level of 9 at 12dpo!! I am going to assume that my nurse is a moron and continue on as if everything is fine. She can bite me. I am, however, going to get some delicious Olive Garden for lunch tomorrow as a treat, lmao!!!

I would (and MAN do I love their salads... you have me drooling over here)! The more I think about it the more I think your nurse really is a moron. One beta tells you exactly 1 thing.. are you pregnant or not? You need a beta series to tell something like pregnancy viability! My beta was only 13 at 11 DPO with my angel DD, and before you get scared I lost her because she was sick... not because my betas weren't doubling... because they were nearly tripling!

You're only 4 DPO, so don't stress it :) I know you are eager to get rid of your flatline, but a spike in temps before 6 DPO would have no meaning... not even potential meaning. I still have my :fingers: for you!

Thanks two I was thinking I may not see a rise until implantation IF all went well catching the egg. The lower temp I got at 4am threw me abit so I'm going to try not temp when I wake up at random hours lol. My mum is coming for a visit in two days time and I'm going to have to tell her that I'll be testing for bfp while she's here. Really didn't want anyone in real life to know but she'll know straight away when I dont have a wine with her lol. Wish I could say I'm on antibiotics but then she'll grill me as to why and whats wrong :):)

just quickly I was pouring a bottle for ds2 and had a sudden urge to skull a glass of full cream milk (I didn't) I don't drink milk normally and only skim when I do (coffee) apart from ice break iced coffee prior to le diet and thats because its watery. with both pregnancies I've had cravings for flavoured milk of the full cream kind. I was drinking over a litre of chocolate milk a day when pregnant with ds2!! I know there's no way I would have symptoms yet anyway it was just weird :)

Mine stayed at 36.5 until this morning when I got a bfp. I woke up thinking I had a fever and noticed my temp jumped .4 degrees. I'm 11dpo, so I don't think you should worry too much yet (which is silly for me to say because I was also worrying at 4 dpo) :)

I had 5 attempts during my most fertile time and still it isn't working! Plus all the other blue swayers seem to get pregnant right away because we are raising our fertility and I feel like it will never happen for me. Having secondary infertility issues did a number on my reproductive confidence! Does anyone do yoga?

Magical- An IUI was the ticket for me. My dh had average sperm count so my dr had us dtd 36 and 24 hours before the IUI. It seems like something that would sway blue but I had my second girl.

My boobs are sore (nipples too) I've had insomnia the past two nights where I wake up at 2am and can NOT go back to sleep. I even was starving last night and had to eat a granola bar. And I had a dream last night we were pregnant and having a boy - the same dream I had with my first BFP.

I keep debating calling and requesting bloods. Will bloods show anything if hpt won't? Or do I just wait it out until Sunday at 14dpo?

Hcg will show in blood before urine. Some ppl never get a urine bfp and it only shows in their blood. It's still early, it's not over yet. (((Hugs)))

I know you're going to get sick of me saying this, but you could be pregnant given what happened with me with my DS2. I would wait until 14DPO, if it's still negative and you feel pregnant, keep testing every three days after that. Once you get past when AF should definitely be due, then I would maybe call. My OB wouldn't do bloodwork until I got a positive HPT. He knew about my chemical and miscarriage and wanted to give it time first.

I think had I waited I could have saved myself a FRER. I feel really "wet" and now I think there's a little dark spotting. Going to just wait it out and stay busy. I'll keep you all in the loop ladies, but I probably won't temp next month. Seeing those high temps really were probably keeping me up at night!

Yeah, they are supposed to hold sperm up at the cervix to up the odds of conception. I think they sway blue kinda like IUI because it bypasses the vagina/CM that the diet is creating, but I don't know any stats on whether it works or not.

[YayBaby678]

Well the tech said I'll have to wait for the doctor to look everything over and call me. So I don't know anything at this point. I'm just glad they fit me in because I screwed up and my appointment was actually yesterday. Oops.

FX for you Taytum! It's a good sign that you are now past your normal LP. Plenty of women don't get a clear BFP at this point.

This 2WW is doing wonders for my house :giggle: There are so many projects I have been putting off inside because we have been focusing our efforts on removing a fence, and trees (lots and lots of trees... not the big kind, the annoying little ones that like to take over a yard). This is my first 2WW since the boys went back to school so I have to keep busy or I have hours and hours a day where I have nothing to do and can sit and obsess, so I have been tackling some back burner projects. Far from done but I have another 10 days before I even start testing. I could get more done today but I want to spread it out so I don't get it all done in the first few days and sit and obsess the rest. Going to tackle more on Monday (weekends are yard work days). By then I'll be 5 DPO and if I do it right I have AT LEAST another 4 days of work on my back burner list which will bring me to Thursday (9 DPO). Have to figure something out for Friday, but saturday and sunday are yard work days again. Then Monday is test day :) 2 weeks is too long lol. Why can't it be a 2 DAY wait :rofl:

ETA: Oh, I know what I'll do Friday! I have to go buy my books and parking pass before school starts. It's a half hour each way then there will be a line a mile long so that is going to take awhile. Yay! Now if I can just stick to it and not sit in front of the computer staring at my chart obsessing lol.

I wish I could be productive during the 2ww. I'll start something and then stop to look something up. It's getting annoying and it's only our first month! I go back to work in September and that will at least help me fill my days.

Maybe you could keep a note pad next to you so if you think of something you right it down. Then you aren't so much obsessing as you are looking up questions... AND you are getting things done AND making time pass faster... Just a thought :shrug:

I actually got off here and got my butt to work on some things around the house. It felt good! It reminded me that I don't need to freak out this 2ww. I most likely have a few more ahead of me and googling "sore ovary on 7 dpo" isn't going to give me any factual information. Thanks for the notepad idea! :)

I also realized that this is my first 2ww since my last dd so I forgot about the crazy feelings.

[twointow83]

My kids are characters, lol. I had some ingredients I needed to use so I made something my mom liked to make. She called it "refrigerator roundup". Basically it is rice, cheese, mixed veggies, cream of chicken soup and turkey or chicken. To listen to them talk you'd think I fed them ice cream for dinner :rofl: My oldest even said "this is better than chocolate!!" and "This is too good to not have seconds!". Meanwhile, my youngest was saying "yeah!" and shouting "CHEEEESE!!" :rofl: To give you some idea of why this is so funny to me- my oldest is CRAZY picky! He was 5 before we were able to get him to eat a hot dog... most kids would live on hot dogs if you'd let them. So, it's incredibly rare to get him to say he likes something at all... much less act like it is the best thing since sliced bread! I've been told I need to make it more often 26698

lol Twointow kids!!! My eldest is picky too and he'll say 'I dont like it' to anything I dish up unless it's packet pasta or two minute noodles. Most times I bribe him to take a bite and he's like 'I like it!!' lol. Your refridgerator roundup sounds delicious! Might have to try it out!

Thanks, can't take credit on the recipe though. I tweaked it to fit the ingredients I had to use but mostly it was her that came up with it (as far as I know anyway). I occasionally bribe my oldest to try something too. He either spits it out or will give a hum-drum "it's good" but will never eat another bite most of the time. We did get him to try the clams from long john silver's once and to our shock and amazement he loved them and still loves them. My youngest is a blessing, food wise (they are both blessings in general, of course) because he hasn't met a food he didn't like lol. How many 5 year olds do you know that love Brussels sprouts? Mine does! I have always wondered if it has anything to do with the fact that my youngest was nursed (different flavors each meal) and my oldest was bottle fed (same flavor all the time). BUT both are autistic and my oldest is sensory avoiding and my youngest is sensory seeking so that probably plays a bigger role than how they were fed the first few months of their lives. My hubby on the other hand is convinced that it's because of how they were fed so he expects me to nurse again this time. Not that I mind... I just hope the next one isn't like my youngest was! For 6 excruciatingly long weeks I had to nurse him around the clock (not every couple hours around the clock... literally non-stop. I had to either let him scream or take him with me and nurse him while using the restroom for crying out loud lol). Finally my lactation consultant suggested that he was probably a "snacker" (eating little at a time, never getting full, etc.) and suggested how to fix it and it worked. Don't want to go through THAT again, but at least this time I know what to do so it doesn't last so long!

[netti02]

Sounds delicious two! Me eldest 2 are picky don't give things a try. My 3rd will have a go at anything really he loves his food 😂

I have DTD day locked in for tmro. Fingers and toes X

Then it certainly is onto productive 2WW and a spring clean 😁

I really hope I get a bfp this month as the last five days have been pretty much open season on the diet. Think the only le thing I've stuck to is skipping breakfast!! Eeekk!! Haven't monitored anything on mfp as I don't want to know how much over I've been lol

[TaytumJ]

F&TX for you netti!!!

I think I got a bad batch. My 12dpo looks like 10dpo, and I started brown spotting when using the restroom. Hoping AF stays away but I'm going to come to peace with trying again next month.

FX still for you!

[Pbn3]

sorry taytum :( I can still see the line but not sure if its evap line or not. This happened to me last cycle I kept getting a line (evap) but it didn't get darker and I wasted sooo many frers thinking surely the next one will be it

[Pbn3]

Don't forget what xxforhubby says she didn't get a clear positive until 21dpo? So as long as af stays away you still have a chance!!

[Pbn3]

Lol. FX for your BFP... halfway to test day!

halfway!! lol that's when I SHOULD start testing (10dpo) but I'll start at 7dpo because it feels like forever since I've peed on something :):) This time round I feel more emotionally prepared for bfn so wont be staring at my tests till I'm crosseyed and taking multiple tests a day thinking oohh my hcg level could've risen in the last 6 hours since my last one.

[XXforhubby]

If AF is late that will be a good sign!! Plus the brown spotting could be implantation, and you won't get a positive until three days later, if that is the case! I'm hoping and praying this is it for you!!

Oh yeah, you did say that lol. I am trying to make it to at least 12 dpo... don't know if I'll make though. I am only 2dpo and already itching to test. One thing is for sure though... I am avoiding FRER. I don't want a repeat of last cycle and everyone has been having issues with them anyway.

I'm only using frer because I already have them otherwise I'd be trying a different brand to! There's alot of mention on the net about frers lately in a negative way - its a shame as they always had such a good name. I googled reviews for two other hpts I seen in local chemist last cycle and they were both terrible - apparently alot of false positives so I stayed away from them at the time

Quick question for those that check their cervix. Now I know that everyone is different but as this was my first cycle checking just wanting your experience. I've been checking my cervix daily and its still high but is and has been firm for a few days. What's bugging me is the cm after o. It started thick almost gluggy/tacky for 2-3 days and now looks/feels just like lotion last 2 days. I've only gotten cm from internal so nothing discharging into knickers. Hope this isn't too personal a question :)

That isn't uncommon. You can even get EW just before AF sometimes. CM is caused by estrogen, or the lack thereof. While the LP is dominated by progesterone, it is not uncommon to have a fluctuating level of estrogen... esp just before AF due to a drop in progesterone. BUT CM can NOT tell you are preg or not definitively, niether can CP. The only CM things I have noticed that is a sign of preg, for me at least, has less to do with what you see from inside and more to do with what I see in my undies. A CM sign for me is my undies will suddenly start being very wet, no matter how often I change them. It doesn't look like cm... except maybe watery but is so much worse than watery cm... tmi but tbh if I didn't know better I'd think I was peeing my pants over and over again all day when I am preg... god bless pantyliners lol. Does any of that answer your question? I kinda started to babble there for a bit lol.

Thanks two and yes! it's all new to me so that makes sense. At least I'll have something to compare to next cycle if need be :)

Yup! Unlike temps which can tell you a lot your very first cycle, cm/cp take a few cycles to really learn. First you have to learn to distinguish one type from another (which can be tricky sometimes even if you have been doing it awhile so don't be hard on yourself if this is posing a challenge) then you have to recognize your norms before it gives you the complete pic. For example, my infertile CM pattern (unmedicated) is creamy with few days of sticky and EW is my fertile pattern. Susie Q's infertile pattern may be sticky and she may never get EW. Her fertile CM may be creamy. Everyone is different, so learning YOUR patterns and norms goes a long way :)

Couldn't have said it better myself! I've used charting for both TTA and TTC so forgive my momentary lapse of recollection that you have no intention of charting any longer than you have to lol. So, yes, hopefully this will be your last chart [emoji120]

yeah I was pretty happy this morning! Would've been happier if it went up lol. But yes every temp from here on in will be over analyzed lol

5 DPO is the absolute earliest day for implantation so a dip can be good too ;) Wouldn't go shopping for nursery furniture just yet, but ya know... gotta scrutinize everything ;) :giggle:

[Hitmebabyonemoretime]

Pbn3 I have everything crossed for you - my diet went a little south too at the end, I still think I wasn't eating like normal - or my old normal that is...

Taytum I agree with XX. Fx for IB spotting

I know I'm already scrutinizing everything lol. I gave in to my urge to have milk and actually drank half a glass of full cream milk!!! Last night I had a dream that a friend I know that does 'readings' told me something along the lines of twinkles or sparkles lol and that I'm about to get the news I've been waiting for (she knows I'm ttc). I've been tempted to text her and tell her about the dream hahaha
