Joyous June 2WW Thread

[XXforhubby]

I thought I'd get this up and running for those that will be Oing or testing in June. FX that June brings more BFPs to kick start the summer! Not sure what we will call the July 2WW thread- I can't think of any more "J" adjectives, hahaha!

Oh gosh, I guess I'll be here then :omg: I'm only about a week into my cycle...

July could be called... Jump-for-joy July?! Bit of a mouthful though lol x

[Girlieplease]

Am day 3 of my cycle, this is to be our first month trying and am really nervous and excited, if it don't happen this month I won't be trying in July because I would end up with three baby birthdays in April, which am not keen on. Excited to be on this journey with you guy's! Xxforhubby have you tested again? X

[XXforhubby]

I'll be testing tomorrow if I don't chicken out and wait for AF to come!

13dpo here... waiting for AF still but it is only 8:30am so it could still start today. They said pregnyl wouldn't lengthen my LP but I'm not convinced.

[XXforhubby]

Good point Purple! I forget that it's winter in other parts of world, haha!

AFM- I'm thinking AF is going to show in a couple of days after all. I have a few skin break outs and I'm irritable today. I'm happy to have a 12+ day LP while BFing! That makes me happy! Of course I could still get a BFP, but I doubt it [emoji3].

Well I have no sign of AF yet but my tests are getting lighter so I'm not too hopeful. I would expect something you can easily see on an IC test by now based on my other pregnancies. I think I'm just going to have a longer LP unless I O'd later than I thought.

[Faithinpink]

Hi everyone, the year is just flying along .
I'm on cd 7 so 7 days out from attempt unless I O early Again, but this month I'm forgetting the cutoff and just attempting at O. Need to get pregnant, over it - diet driving me bonkers , and I need MEAT lol . Tomorrow marks 19 weeks on diet.

Good luck ladies , hopefully this month is full of BFP's

[XXforhubby]

Faithinpink, do you mind if I shorten your name to FIP?

I know what you mean about being over the diet and just wanting to get a BFP. It took me 8 months and 9 cycles to get a BFP with DS3, which was the last time I swayed! Now, it's so second nature that even my cheat days aren't bad, hahaha!

FX for you and everyone else getting ready to make their attempts soon!

I'm stalking for updates Purple [emoji1317]!

But I will not be wasting my time with the Dollar Store tests after all the evaps I got this last time! FRERs only!

I am with you on the diet and exercise, I chicken a bad cheat? I have it twice a week? Maybe I should avoid it until my attempt, I thought it was OK as along as your overall protein was low, I often have it if my protein is very low? Good luck everyone, fingers crossed xxforhubby, but I know what you mean about the breast feeding, when my cycles were coming back while I was feeding ds 2, I still am, I had a gap between periods of 42 days, am a regular 25 _ 28 days!

I think eating Chicken is fine as long as it's within the protein levels you have set. I think even as a cheat (outwith levels ) it's not too bad.

This is my 4th month ttc so I'm relaxing things ever so slightly. Will probably backfire on me but I'm running out of steam Staying 100%motivated x

Haha thanks :) Although I'm pretty sure I'm going to disappoint this cycle as I have started a bit of spotting and the last test I did was a BFN :( I think AF will start tomorrow.

I wasn't expecting it to happen this cycle and would rather it happen next cycle so I get a bit more clomid in my system.

I will probably stick with cd4-9 again but hopefully O a bit earlier as I O'd a day earlier the month after clomid last year.

[3'sacharm]

Jennypenny we are cycle buddies - I'm CD9 too! When are you due to ov? I used to ov about CD17 or so of approximately 28 day cycle but I'm sure I ov earlier last month and was only a 26day cycle with the last day spotting. I'm not ov testing though, just doing e4d; due next BD Tuesday...x

Haha that's exactly the same as me!! Not testing with opks this month and doing every 4 days again.

Usually ovulate cd15 although that has been 2 months now that we dtd cd14 and no success. have made sure one of our attempts is cd 13 this month.
Decided to do every 3 days next month if I don't get pregnant.

Damn! I was hoping this was it for you! Well the upshot is it looks like we will be cycle buddies! AF should start for me either today or tomorrow too! I had pink-tinged CM when I checked this morning, which means AF is coming. At least I didn't waste any FRERs!

I'm not using anything but those this time. Those evap lines on the cheap tests caused me to be prematurely excited and I had a few cheats with chicken and snacks. Ah well.

I'm back strict now. Just did my 60+min of cardio and will go back vegetarian.

Hi everyone!
I'm going to be joining you too[emoji4] I remember most of you from May thread.
This is my first month ttc pink had a failed sway in 2014 so fx this is my second time lucky.
I'm 9dpo and had a bfn this morning, but I never got bfp this early, so I'll be testing every other day until af shows, she's due on the 3rd.[emoji16]
So far, all the symptoms that I have indicate either I'm pregnant or just going out of mind.

My boobs gone from tingly to sore and heavy and my bras feel quite snug.
Always hungry, mostly craving sweet and fatty foods.
Also feeling hot in both ways so been sleeping in the nude for the past two nights (lucky hubby)[emoji6]
Frequent urination, thirst, headaches, forgetfulness, moody, dizziness, fatigue, pain in the lower back, upper hips, pelvic and abdominal area.

I haven't been able to stick to the LE diet for the past few days as I'm all over the place right now, and quite frankly we're going to postpone the whole ttc thing for next year if AF shows as hubby will be away on business trip in July and August.

Good luck to everyone testing or tempting.[emoji4]

[sharon]

Im back...yet again :rolleyes: Im on cd11, hoping to ov in a few days time rather than after cd20 like i sometimes do.
Really hoping this is our month , esp as woulkd get a march baby, which ive always wanted as i was born in march too:running:

[XXforhubby]

My DH would love a March baby too, and he too has a March birthday!

I too hope to O sooner than CD24. The previous cycle was even later than that. I've only had 2 periods postpartum though, since I had my DS3 at the end of November. Typically my cycles resumed every 24-26 days but not this time around.

FX for all of us!!

AF has started tonight which is unusual for me as it normally starts in the morning. Anyway, on to the next cycle... I'm almost at my stop date which was around July. I honestly didn't think I would get to this point without being pregnant or have a baby by now.. I didn't expect it to be easy but didn't think it would be this hard.

[XXforhubby]

My heart breaks for you Purple! I'm hoping beyond hope that your BFP is this next cycle!

I would have thought AF would have started by now but nope. Still waiting. I'll test again Saturday morning if she hasn't paid me a visit by then. I'm getting cramps but that's it. I don't have too much hope as she's known to play hide and seek with me, hahaha!

[purple]

I always get a bit emotional a few days before AF and sometimes cd1. I think because I had already decided in my head that the last cycle wouldn't work I'm sort of ok with it but I think I'm going to find a BFN this cycle much harder to take.

I'm thinking maybe we should give up on 1 attempt as I really only want to do one or two more cycles so it is kind of our last shot. My sway pretty much sucks now as have put on at least 2kg since my last miscarriage and haven't really followed LE at all. I have been snacking way more too.

All I have for a 'sway' is clomid, metformin, drinking coffee (but I still have some tea), trying to have wine with most dinners and previously 1 attempt (or 2 but no more than once every 3 days). I'm going to try to cut out the snacking again as I think that is important. My exercise is boy friendly but I have to do some exercise due to having pcos but I can't fit in 60 mins of cardio as I work full time.


XX - I hope you know what is going on soon.

flowerlily - good luck with your next test!

[flowerlily]

Still bfn for me, but I'm staying hopeful as I'm only 11dpo (or think) which is still early especially when using cheapies, and it's my second month off of BCP plus BF and I doubt everything is still the same.[emoji19]
The only other thing I have is CBD but I'm saving it for the last.
Got more symptoms too, excess saliva, feeling sick first thing in the morning but ok once I'm out of bed and increased discharge.

Hope this is your cycle Purple[emoji4]

Xx, the blood from before could have been from implantation? Staying hopeful for you too. When was the last time you tested?

Ps my hubby is a March baby too.

[purple]

Sorry about the BFN flowerlily. What test brand did you use?

I spoke to the nurse at the fertility specialist and she has suggested trying a few clomid cycles on my own (no monitoring) but they will do blood tests at 4dpo and 7dpo to check if I need any extra LP support. I would rather not have the pregnyl again as I don't like not being able to test. It did bump my LP up from 12 days to 14 days but I think 12 days is long enough.

[Pbn3]

Purple I'm so sorry :( and I hope you find peace with whatever you decide to do attempt wise next cycle. I'll have everything crossed for you.

Xxforhubby cant believe your wacky cycle continues! Staying tuned!

Good luck all you other ladies - I see quite a few here from May. I hope June is as wonderful for bfps as May was!! Fx fx fx for you all!

I couldn't make this up if I tried, hahaha!

AF is definitely not here and I'm not sure what to make of the two small bouts of pink CM but my CM is abundant and creamy like lotion. I've had cramps occasionally and if it means AF is coming, sex brings it on. Well it didn't last night.

I'll test Friday morning if AF isn't here by then. That should be enough time, hopefully. According to FF AF is late today, and by my usual LP length she is 3 days late. Plus, my temp is back up today.

The wackiness continues!

I'm not getting my hopes up that's for sure! I don't usually have super long LP's but who knows what effect BFing has.

I will say that when I was BFing my other two boys, I had 24-26 day cycles with 11-13 day LPs.

I'll be on though. My DH reassured me that he is committed to keep TTCing until at least December and then we will re-evaluate. I think because of that I can relax a bit and just wait it out.

AFM
It's CD12 Today of month #15 of trying and this cycle is not going according to plan at all. I got a stomach bug on the last day I should have taken the Femara so with being sick I was unable to take the medication. I was also supposed to use injectible drugs this weekend but my Insurance needed a preauth on the drugs and it wasn't done in time so I wasn't able to get them. I did have an ultrasound yesterday and there were 3 eggs on the right side at 10-11 each so hopefully in a few days I get a +OPK. Had the last 6 days off of work, which was planned, but My DD got sick the second day I was off, me the next day and DH the day after, it was not a fun time off at all. Oh and my last living grandparent passed last week so there was a funeral mixed in there too, she would have been 98 this year so I think she lived a good long life. Hoping June is a better month! :)

[XXforhubby]

Oh, I'm so sorry for your loss [emoji20]. I know your Grandma had a long life but she will definitely be missed. That just plain stinks about your meds and you being so sick! I wish you a speedy recovery- stomach bugs are the worst!

Hopefully this was all part of a bigger plan that will bring you your BFP! FX so hard for you!!

Purple I was so hoping it was your month, hope June is joyous for us both. Am not very hopefully with opting for one attempt, but in saying that ds2 was conceived from one attempt. I got clear blue ovulation sticks but I think I got the wrong ones, these show an empty circle then a smilie face when you have your LH surge, I meant to buy the ones that gave flashing smilies and static ones, when should I use these? I use the cb fertility monitor but it played up last month so am doubling up, also bought a thermometer, going to start tempting, any tips? Also am day 6 of my cycle but feel am gearing up for o? What is with that? I o'ed early last month as well, is it diet and exercise? Does early o sway blue? Thanks

[sharon]

Well i took an opk this evening & its almost +ve but not quite. Im on cd 13 , we dtd on cd 10 so we had to do it tonight also as im doing e3d.... come on June. Plz be kind to us x

[baby2016baby]

Sorry purple :( I'm moving from May thread. The witch for me on holiday. I'm cd3 so quite a wait before anything's happening for me. Hello to all and good luck and sticky baby dust xx

[purple]

tfahn - sorry for your loss :( It doesn't sound like you are having a good time at the moment, I hope your cycle works out despite all the issues you are having.

Girlieplease - late O sways more boy so I think early O is better for girl.

Good luck sharon!

XX - I wouldn't think breastfeeding would increase your LP, if anything it would be shorter. Good luck testing soon!

baby2016 - sorry AF got you too! hopefully we can both get BFPs this month.

[XXforhubby]

I'm SO over temping and am going to stop- it's stressing me out too much. I don't think it's been real accurate for me as my temps have been so high, and I think I FINALLY Oed last night. I had horrific O pains to the point where I couldn't even lie on my left side at all. My CM this morning has dried up finally. Up till now I had tons of creamy CM. Plus my DH couldn't keep his hands off me for the past 2 days, which always means I'm about to ovulate.

I took a pregnancy test this morning and it was a BFN. I'll know 11-13 days from now either way.

This is the first time this has happened to me. Ironically I ran into my RE at the store this morning. He asked how things were going and if we were going to try for #4. I told him we were. He then asked where I was at in my cycle. I told him briefly what is going on. He said good news about delayed ovulation produces a very healthy egg. That was nice to hear because I thought the opposite. He said the body will keep trying until the best egg is released. This typically happens when BFing due to hormones being more influx.

We will BD tomorrow and then again three days from now.

Atomic has told me that delayed O due to PCOS often produces more boys. Delayed O in other situations produces more girls for the same reason that early O does. It's any change from your normal circumstance that often produces more girls.

[jennypenny]

It seems all our bodies are making us wait for ovulation this month!! I did a test out of interest this morning cd14 and it was super faint! (Usually pretty dark cd14) may test again tonight before I go to bed to see if things have changed xx

Yeah me too jennypenny, my body is playing tricks on me again . I tested on Tuesday had some pains but not for long that was cd11. Had a decent line so thought yeah O should be soon but no ewcm and pain went so glad I held off cause I thought I was going to O early.
Ran out of opks , don't like using them anyway they just stress me , so today is cd13 and I normally O on cd 14 or 15...

Just had some ewcm , so going to BD tonight ..Eekk wish me luck , god I hope this works this time , I so ready to be pregnant..
Good luck everyone

[jennypenny]

I totally know what u mean!!!
I really hope u get that bfp this month, you have been so patient!

I may abandon the opks too, they really do stress me out and I suppose the purpose of e4days is to help u relax and not stress about testing.

Hey jennypenny , I hope we get our bfp together we are only a day apart in our cycles .
I'm just over it ... I know its only been 4mths ttc but I'm more than ready, this diet is driving me over the edge unfortunately. I just don't feel healthy . Need all those good things I use to eat. Avocados, olives, MEAT ....

FX for us . And everyone testing this month

[jennypenny]

I really hope so! This is our 4th month also! I feel rather run down now, keep getting colds and generally feel a bit blah!

I feel in a way though that the time has helped me feel better about probably conceiving another boy. As I now feel so ready to get pregnant!
Also I visited my newborn nephew at hospital last night, he was sooo gorgeous!!! He is my brothers 3rd boy! We have absolutely no girls in our family, including my siblings and cousins children and my husbands siblings and cousins children - all boys!!!

Ok enough now I'm getting emotional lol..

Yeah I know what you mean! It would be like winning the lottery! !

CD13 today; away for a few days so not strictly adhering to le but I'm still skipping breakfast, no meat, lots of coffee (!!!), only eaten two meals yesterday and today so long fasts between both BUT kcals and fat are probably off with indulging in some cakes... We dtd on CD11 and will again on CD15. I'm expecting ov to be/have been this week though, had EWCM this week and been fancying random men on the train which usually happens around ov time lmao!!!x

Ps will you all find out gender before birth or will you wait for the surprise?? I really don't think I'd want to know but only because of other people's reactions if it's another boy :( but I do agree with you that I feel more at peace with having another boy having swayed, as at least then I'll know that I've given it my best shot, if after everything, it's another boy then I guess it was meant to be.x

But i found out sex of my first two so on one hand i feel like its the last time i can have this 'surprise, we not finding out' thing people do AND on the other hand its to protect myself from 20 weeks of a dismal and depressing last trimester if boy! (which i had with DS2) (even though omg he's amazing!) But i like what you did there - you made me look at it differently.. thanks xx

CD15 today and got a darker then control +OPK this morning. We did BD last night and will the next 2-3 nights to make sure we are covered. Have a good feeling about this month, fingers crossed.

Tfahn - That is great you look like you will still ovulate despite the cycle not going to plan. Fx you catch that egg!!

XX - any updates?

[XXforhubby]

Still. No. AF. I'm going to test in the morning. There is a possibility that I'm still in the 2WW and will test again on CD51 or CD52. This is the craziest cycle I've ever had! We keep on BDing so if an egg is released, we are in a good position to catch it!

FX for you Purple and Tfahn!!

BFing does wacky things to cycles. I don't even get a cycle when BFing but then my cycles are wacky anytime!

I started clomid last night so just have to wait and see how it goes 2 rounds in a row. Hopefully it doesn't make me too grumpy and irritable.

[essnce629]

Omg XX, I can't believe AF is still a no show! Your chart definitely looks correct now and ovulatory with a clear distinct temp rise. With an 18 day LP you must be pregnant as a LP longer than 16 days is usually a clear indication of pregnancy! FX for your test in the morning (a FRER right)! I'll be stalking!

[flowerlily]

Still bfn for me and I'm 2 days late.
I posted on Thursday and somehow it didn't go through.
We've had some sort of virus going on, as Ds1 and 2 have been off and on vomiting with high temperatures, and I think I must have caught it too, as I've got high temperature and diarrhea.

Purple, the cheapies that I use are 'clear and simple' and 'firstvue', apparently they're equivalent to the dollar tree ones but I've seen some mixed reviews on them, some swear by them and the others just say that they're a waste of time and money.
After all, I think I've ovulated late or something else is going on.

Xx, good luck tomorrow.
How many times are you BF Ds3?

I think I'm doing a lot of feeding for my ds3's age which is messing things for me plus coming off the Pill.

[XXforhubby]

Thanks ladies! It was so weird. So I set the stick down after dipping it for 5 sec, and I saw a clear second line. It was there for about 45sec to 1 min but was gone at 3 min. I took it apart and it was clearly white- no hint of a second line.

So either it's very early or I'm losing it, hahaha! There is also the possibility that I'm still in the 2WW. I stopped temping because it was stressing me out. I still may be 7-8 days out from getting AF, putting me at either 4-5dpo. Either way, I had an O-1 or an O-2 attempt. We keep BDing whenever my DH wants (every 3-4 days) just in case.

I've stopped exercise since I have a lot going on with kids ATM. I am skipping/delaying breakfast and sticking to limits of fat and protein. My DS3 is cutting his first set of teeth slowly and is BFing a lot so I'm eating a bit more empty carbs to keep up my milk supply. I'm hoping that the close spacing and BFing helps! I'm going to start running tomorrow since my DH said he will support me with that by watching all of the kids. We will see how that goes [emoji6].

FX and GL to everyone! I'm sure I'll still be on the TTC train, hahaha!

XX I, hope this is your month! I have had "moving Lines" on FRERs that are there for a bit then move on down to eventually hold and the BFN line.

I got a really faint bfp this morning. I'm not freaking out about it yet because I really don't know if its a sticky one. Today is my 3rd day of spotting that started at 9 dpo, so I decided to test this morning (taking into account sudden nausea). I couldn't get aclear picture of it, so I will test again monday ands ee if its a chemical or a solid little bean in there.

Kinda freaky, after the dust has settled Im not sure i EVER want to go thru it again, and quite frankly have NO FAITH in my body to carry it off well, so I guess I see no point in having a heart attack or getting excited.

My SIL is announcing her first baby tonight. I'm excited for them but super emotional and now this! I did tell DH this morning, he took it really well (this is an accident, I tried to be SUPER safe and use DOUBLE spermacide film for EXTRA safety and they balled together and fell out in one undissolved goo ball an hour after we dtd, 36 hours before O...) THAT said, i think if its MEANT to happen IT WILL, WHEN it's MEANT TO and its really out of our hands. My new OBGYN convinced me of this.

ANYWAY, will report back monday with a digi NOT pregnant or PREGNANT. we shall see!

[sharon]

Yesterday I got a +ve opk (just about the same darkness as control line) + then this morning and all day today my opks have been blaring +ve with test line way darker than the control!! This is cd17, we dtd cd 10,13,15 + 17. More than i wanted to but wanted to make sure i done it on the day of strongest opk as thats where i think ive been goin wrong. GL ladies pink dust xx:pinksperm:

[SweetLily]

Xx I read your entire crazy cycle in this thread and looked at your chart--NUTS! The thermal shift seems pretty clear tho and I would guess you ovulated when it suggests. All my girls were late bfps. With my first daughter I was 4 days late and got a super faint bfp then a negative so went to the dr. With the last baby which was a girl I was 4 days late when I tested and it was not dark. It was clear but still faint. By no means dark like with the boys that had stronger result lines than test lines! You may just need to give it a couple of days and test again.

I thought I'd be cool waiting for Monday but I feel all hell bent. Especially since my sil announced tonight she's 10 weeks!

Even still....not sure I'd manage to keep a baby past 24 w at this point so no use stressing now.

Gl, I'm stalking your posts now!

[XXforhubby]

I know! I'm sure my crazy cycle is because I'm BFing still. Although I only BF once overnight and he is toying with dropping that right now. He's BFing a little less during the day but only started casually eating solid foods he can feed himself. He hates being spoon fed- I can't say I blame him, hahaha!

We just keep plugging along and BDing every few days.

I'm also stalking your posts! I'm hoping that this has a happy ending! Thank you for mentioning about getting late BFPs with your girl pregnancies. I had a late BFP with my DS2, but nothing like this! I just think my body is working on making one (hopefully just one!) helluva healthy egg!

FX so hard for you!!

CD17 today and I believe 1 DPO. Had lower left pains Friday evening and also again yesterday with a bigger temp rise this morning; Will try to BD one more time tonight just to make sure I'm covered. Got my blood test results from Friday that I took at +OPK, my estradiol was 226, this is the highest it has ever been for me, so exicted!

Xx - I'm keeping fx for you this cycle too. Can't believe you got a bfn the other day, thought for sure you would've got bfp.

Good luck to everyone else.

I'm on cd3 today, we are not trying this month as the kids have a karate Comp at the Gold Coast around the time I would be due if I got a bfp this month. They are really excited to go & I need a cesarean so baby would need to come a week early & I couldn't go with a week old baby & trying to recover as well. Really thought I would be pregnant by now, not sure if I should go to the dr to get some tests done or if we just keep trying after this month & see what happens. We have 3 healthy kids already so maybe we are not meant to have anymore.

Well its 4 days of spotting for me now, even after I started my progesterone yesterday. Testing tomorrow, feeling anxious. DH and I talked about it and while we wanted a couple more months, if this is it its ok.

I feel ambiguous no matter what, I know I will never feel excited about a pregnancy again until I am 28 weeks along at least. I start grief counselling for it tomorrow, i decided I have to to move forward with TTC and another baby or I'll never survive the pregnancy.

I expect a bfn tomorrow. my queasiness has eased a little already yesterday and today, tho i do know that progesterone is supposed to help it--I think it reeks of a chemical.

A few more hours will tell. Is it morning yet?

XX still stalking your chart! It looks very promising. I dont think I quite told you HOW bad it was with DD 1. 4 days late. 1 CBE. SUPER faint. thought it was defective, phoned the company. Went to store. Bought a 2 pack and retested. BFN. Retested next morning. still BFN. Called drs office who took me in for their dip test. BFP. It was a roller coaster! I'm glad I was too young and dumb to know about chemicals then!

On the crappy side, I feel really ungrateful but I am pretty sure this one is a boy. I want a girl, and I know I on;y get to have one more. I will be happy for ANY baby, but cant help wishing I had the same symptoms as last time when here was a little pink bean in there. Maybe it doesn't matter anyway, maybe I can't haev another no matter how much I try, so I guess theres no point worrying about it.

Funny how that loss changed me from the TWW freak to the whatever queen...

[XXforhubby]

I'm so sorry you've had to go through all that you have. I am hoping and praying that all of this works out to finally bring your rainbow baby to you!

I've stopped temping. I'm only tracking my CM and when we BD. I'm getting horrible sleep with DS3 cutting teeth. AF is late according to the third time I could have ovulated. I'll know more by CD50-52, which is when AF could be due yet for a fourth time.

I won't test again until next Saturday or Sunday. I think I've kept my fat too low so I've upped it a bit to 50-60g. Hopefully that will send a signal to release the damn egg already, hahaha!

I would test again in a few days. It's possible that you could still be pregnant and the embryo has just embedded on or near a blood vessel. I had this happen with DS3, and I thought I was miscarrying.

I have my follow up GYN appointment in 40 minutes. She'll do another ultrasound to check my endometrioma on my left ovary. Hopefully it shrunk! These menopause pills have sucked! I was supposed to skip a period but instead had 12 days of light bleeding, plus acne and feeling angry and short tempered all the time!!!! And DH is still pulling out while I'm on these pills!

[essnce629]

Ovary endometrioma didn't shrink at all. She wants to remove it surgically and go in and see if there's endometriosis in other places. And a hysteroscopy to look inside my uterus too for any fibroids. They'll call later today to schedule. I'll stay on my menopause pills till after the procedure.

[XXforhubby]

Advice needed, I am due to ovulate in the next few days, this was to be my attempt but had a crap weekend diet wise, we stayed with relatives, though I suck to two meals, I had loads of wine and am sure I was over my limits. I managed to keep up the exercise. Getting nervous now, do I go for it? If I don't I won't be attempting again until August. I just think there has been something every month that has caused me to say maybe next month will be better
I am not getting any younger and realistically I may take a while to get pregnant, though I got pregnant first time trying with other 3 dc, any thoughts? Many thanks

http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160606/5b578b4984df9b0cc02e560a43b3e832.jpg

But I'm a little bit worried about it not being a sticky one, already telling myself to not get attached

I took 2 tests this evening
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160606/be97f8283f51183ef2826dc06fd0320f.jpg
I'm 4 days late, and I think the CBD should have been 2-3 weeks plus the BFN on the cheapie is a bit worrying.[emoji17]

So far, some of my symptoms have been on and off, and TMI but DTD hurts a bit too, didn't had that this early.

Question about timing, tried to read the articles on timing and I could not make sense of them, dh is over 35, so I get not doing abstain. My plan was one attempt for the whole month, but him release regularly himself, but I seemed to read that releasing not everyday and one attempt sways blue? Should I be getting him to release 2 times a day up until our attempt?is it too late? He has not been releasing every day. Timing I thought it was one attempt at positive OPK? Is that correct? Thank you, going to go for it this month, thanks for advice thus far. Congrats on bfp! What about jubilant July as title for next month? X

[XXforhubby]

I wouldn't worry about what your DH does on his own. I would just stick with one attempt at positive opk. I would try that for a few months, and if you keep getting BFNs then move onto BDing every 4 days from when AF ends and continue until CD21.

With ds3, I ovulated late too but the cheapie test was faint at least.
I'm hoping it's a healthy sticky pink bean.
Although some of my symptoms are different and so is every pregnancy, and I did everything I could to deserve a daughter.
I'll retest on Monday but with FMU, hopefully it'll be 3+ and the others should have dark lines.

Well ladies im on cd20 now, pretty sure i ovd on cd18- So much for my timing...atomic said i was to do e3d then an extra attempt at +ve opk which i thought we would struggle to do (think antidepressants are affecting ohs sperm as wev been trying 5 months ) so anyway we ended up dtd
cd 10, 13, 15 , 17 + 19 !! Havnt had that much sex for agees, we both just felt like it. Hoping relaxing a bit will help . But im now worried ive major swayed blue by all the sex. Wed tried the 1 attempt 2 months in a row that didnt work and also the e4d didnt work either .... so im 2dpo due to test in 8 days (short LP here) :suprise:
If i get past 8dpo ill be happy as i had a 7 day lp last month:worry:

I am 3 DPO today and will start to test in 6-7 days. Beginning to take my Progesterone supplements today since I always have low numbers and shorter LP's, last month I started taking them at 8 DPO but I think that was too late so hoping earlier will help get me a sticky bean.

Another question, I got high fertility on clearblue monitor yesterday and this morning, I used a digital ovulation test yesterday during the day and it was empty circle. This morning I have alot of ewcm, should I bd tonight or wait until I get positive OPK? Currently trying not to pee so I can use ovulation stick incase cb monitor missed it. I usually get two high days and then two peak days. If am doing one attempt should I attempt tonight irrespective of the OPK result or wait! Thanks

I found the CB digis confusing at first, but basically the first time you use it you'll get a empty circle to set the baseline for you hormone levels. You could never get a flashing smiley the first time because the flashing smiley is detecting an increase from the baseline. It would be possible to get a solid smiley the first time since that is detecting the surge not the rise of hormones leading up to the surge. Once you get a flashing smiley you'll get a flashing smiley no matter what until you get a solid. So if you start too early you will set your baseline too low and you might get extra flashing smiley days.

Anyway, I would wait for the positive to attempt!

I think i'm going to MC, like today! The spotting is getting worse. I feel much more pregnant tho so I feel very confused about the matter. very undecided! I have a drs appt for an injury (see TTC girl thread re bfps and clumsinesss!) so maybe should mention to her, but I feel so unpromisingly about all this I dont even feel like bugging her to do a test! :rofl:

Maybe it has to do with the retained vascularized placenta they never dealt with? I thought my body had finally taken care of that tho, i finally stopped bleeding after about 8 weeks.

I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!

[SweetLily]

Congrats flowerlily!!!!

Hope you have a sticky bean!

[essnce629]

Sweetlily, I would continue taking tests on your own to see if they are darkening or lightening. Then you'll know. FX that you still have sticky bean in there despite the bleeding.

[essnce629]

XX-- please take a test asap!!! Your chart really does look correct and you're now past the point that you got your super late BFP with DS2 at 21dpo right??? Was that test back then super faint at 21dpo or a standard bfp?

Ladies do you think I have missed o? I usually o day 14 or 15, am on day 14 today. I registered high in cb fertility monitor for day 12 and 13, I used digital prediction sticks both days as well and got empty circle both days. Yesterday morning I had a fair bit of ewcm and I have had a temperature drop, though am new to temping and temperatures have been a bit random, I register high fertility again today on the cb monitor, would have expected peak?

Hahaha! With my DS2, it was super faint, like a squinter, at home and also at the doctors office. Even my beta was super low- I believe in the 100's. We weren't sure if he was going to stick or not. I was super depressed because the previous cycle, I had a miscarriage at 10 weeks.

I'm waiting to test this Saturday with FMU. AF should be due by then and if not and no BFP, I'll wait to test a week later. There are two times that I could have Oed in addition to the two time seen on my chart.

I think my body has been gearing up to O and hasn't- probably due to the cardio. I took a bit of a break but have resumed it again. It's not something I'm ready to part with since it's getting such fab results. I am, however, lowering the intensity a bit since I'm still BFing and increasing my fat and overall calories. I need my body to think it's safe to reproduce while BFing a lot still. DS3 has only begun to casually eat solids at 6mo, and he's such a big guy weighing 19lbs and 29in in length!! My DS1 at 3yrs old was 33in to put how big my DS3 is into perspective! My DS1 is no shorty either, but DS3 is simply going to be my friendly giant [emoji4]!

Hello girls. Just want to jump into this thread and join you. Had my first attempt May 24. and I'm now 16 DPO. Tested with a cheep Wondfo pregnancy stick this morning and got a super faint positive. I have been spotting on and off for the past week and thinking AF is just around the corner. I have absolutely no signs in my body that I should be pregnant except a suddenly burst of nausea and itching under my feets on Sunday night where I vomited one time. I look forward to test tomorrow morning again. Is it best to test morning or night? Anyone here that have tried to get a super late (and very faint) BFP besides XXforhubby?

I'm 4dpo also! (I think anyway? Opks were positive for quite a few days )

Also, on 1dpo I had a miniscule amount of spotting. I read it could be ovulation spotting usually when the egg is popping out so this makes me think I'm may be 3dpo or even 2!

Has anyone else ever had ovulation spotting before? Or know anything about it? One website said it's a sign of high fertily lol!! Probably gonna conceive ds3 then!

hi jennypenny my opks were positive for 4 days this month! I think i Ovd on the 3rd day of positives. Only symptoms ive had is a scratchy pain low down near groin and sensitive nips. Really hoping for a sticky babe this month. Goodluck to you too X
Oh and goodluck girlieplease :D

[Faithinpink]

Hellooo ladies, looks like quite a dew of us are on 4dpo. Iam too I think or 5 lol.
This cycle has been crazy , normally I get alot of pain before ovulation but I didn't this month just a bit for half an hour that's it on cd 10 .

So we dtd on cd 12 and cd 15, I didn't want to but hubby is getting impatient. 2nd attempt I got straight up and j&d after 2mins .

Going to test in 4days . Had alot of pain in my tummy the last 3days sharp pain , not sure what that is.

Good luck everyone �� Come on June ... Be kind

[Girlieplease]

Need some advice ladies, this attempt I used both the cb fertility monitor and digital ovulation sticks ( ones that give either empty circle or smilie face) got high fertility from day 12 on the cb fertility monitor, yesterday day 14 ( I usually o on day 14 or 15) I got high fertility on cb monitor but midday I got a smilie face on the digital, so bd last night. I was aiming for one attempt in fertile window. This morning I expected to get peak fertility on cb monitor but it was still high. Any ideas? I have only one more stick to use with the cb monitor so after tomorrow I won't be able to test it. Should I move to every four days just to be sure? So if I had sex on Wednesday night that would be Saturday again? I had not much ewcm last night but lots on Tuesday morning, any thoughts? Many thanks

[tfahn]

Looks like there will be a few us to test together this month, I'm 5 DPO today. Had horrible abdominal cramping yesterday and felt bloated, I get that way occasionally so I don't think its anything to symptom spot but one can always hope :)

Good luck to all you ladies.

[Pbn3]

Girlieplease I would definately start e4d now just to cover yourself. If you bd Wednesday night then Sunday would be next bd, Thursday etc etc.

Cant believe how many of you will be testing around the same time! Will be stalking for bfps!!

Oh yes theres quite a few of us :) Lets hope we all get our BFPS:babyf:

[jennypenny]

So the question is, how many dpo are u all going to start testing?

I would love to hold out to at least 10dpo. It's so disheartening when u see bfn day after day when u start too early.

[baby2016baby]

I will be stalking for tests. I'm quite behind. I'm only on CD 11 or CD 12 (if I class spotting as cd1 as I have every other month) got everything crossed for everyone. Is anyone swaying boy? From what I can see it seems to be all girls.

I'm super nervous as this will be our last month of trying. We've only had 2 cycles of trying but with a few issues popping up, hubby running and needing to train for a marathon and fact I've gained alot of weight being on diet for over 12 weeks :( we've deceided if this month's a no go to have a few months break until Jan 17. I'm a bit gutted but least it's only a temporary break. Still hoping this month could work!

I'm one that won't test till af due date. Having suffered with chems in past I can't face the false hope. I also get 0 symptoms to spot either way so the 2ww really is torturous for me!

Good luck everyone xxx

[tfahn]

I will start testing at 9DPO which will be next Monday the 13th.

Baby2016baby I would love a boy, started out doing a boy sway last April but with a MC and a CP I will be happy with either as long as the baby is healthy; due to my age this will be our last baby. My sway is probably more boy then anything, my downfalls are that I am overweight, I don't do any weightlifting, and I am on fertility meds which sway more girl I think. I just want to get pregnant and it be a healthy sticky one. :)

[Inforthree]

Good luck everyone in the 2ww! I should be joining you soon I'm cycle day 14 and jsut got my first flashing smiley.

I agree, girlie, you should do E4D just in case. I had a similar thing last month and that's what atomic suggested. That means next attempt Sun.

Hope there lots of bfps this month!!!

I will prob start testing at 8 dpo coz im impatient. So that will be mon 13th, but i know i prob wont see a positive until about 10dpo on wed 15th but i can still give it a go:nails:

[3'sacharm]

Evening all! I'm back on it with a vengeance last two days; exercise and diet have been pretty strict but I haven't a clue when I've ovulated/if I've ovulated yet?! I'm CD 20 and thought I was gearing up to ov CD 15 as I thought I had last month but only 2nd full month off POP... My cm has been really wet last few days (sorry for tmi!) but haven't had EWCM for a few days but it's prolonged presence is what's made me think I hadn't ov as early as I thought I had?! I basically don't have a clue what's going on!!!! Still trying to BD e4d though although last week went 5 days btween inadvertently...x

Oh yes I'm trying to hold off as long as I can , won't be testing too early this month and won't be buying any til atleast 9dpo.
I'm not symptom spotting but something is different this month, I have a lot of creamy cm and very moist down there. Sorry (tmi)
Today I'm 5 or 6 dpo

[3'sacharm]

I'm so confused!! I had EWCM on Monday 30th may (CD 10) Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Monday?! And cm still wet now!! Wish I knew what's going on :(

faithinpink - fingers crossed this is your month!! There seems to be lots of ladies this month all around the same time of their cycle, fingers crossed for lots of bfps!!x

[Girlieplease]

I am not sure when I will test, with my three previous pregnancies I never got any positives until 14 days post ovulation but I think my lp is shorter now. Period normally comes between day 25 and 28, though it has been later, am day 16 of my cycle today so that would suggest I could test in nine or ten days. Going to try and not symptom spot as I was convinced I was pregnant in January, had lots of symptoms and then af arrived. Don't want to get my hopes up. I think am dpo 1 but am very dry? Expected that cm would have gone creamy but no. Exciting that so many of us are at a similar stage!

[jennypenny]

That was the same as me last month! I had myself convinced I was pregnant with so many symptoms going on!

Turns out my pregnancy symptoms are the same as my af symptoms lol!!

I did e4days again. Will change to e3days next month if I'm not pregnant this month x

I think e4days seems very long to me, I think my husbands sperm don't hang around that long, I bd on Wednesday night and Sunday is my next chance if I ovulate before Sunday I think there is next to no chance of any swimmers been left but anyway!

[jennypenny]

Yeah I know what u mean!! If it doesn't work this month, I will definitely either do e3days or e4days with another attempt at positive also.

Where is AF? Took Clomid first time this month. She usually starts on Fridays at 9pm after drs. office closes. Last time, I didn't get in until that Monday, of course for an ultrasound. So I guess technically, I can't start clomid until cd4. How bad is it to start it then rather than cd3? Or should I just find another doc that is open on Saturdays? I guess the one positive is that it took away my spotting. Usually spot 3-4 days before AF.http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160610/d99583b8cd92dc793282e0764c8ae611.jpg

They look positive to me. I would try taking a test on FRER since they are more sensitive; you should be able to see a darker line.

6-7 DPO Update

Got my 7 day past +OPK progesterone level checked this morning and got the results already. It is 2-3X higher then it ever has been! Usually my level is around 10-12, (which is boderline normal/low), today was 29.24.

Granted the RE suggested I start taking the progesterone supplements at 3DPO this month, which I did, since I am always low so I am sure that is some of the reason why its so high.For comparison Last month I started taking the supplement at 8 dpo my level was 9.9 and after 10 days on the supplements it had only went up to 13.84 before I stopped taking it to get my period.

Fingers crossed this is my golden sticky egg. :fx: :fx:

That's most definitely a positive hcg dreamsister!! Congratulations!!

Nope! Still BFN at 15 dpo with no sign of AF. I hear clomid can lengthen luteal phase. Sucks!! Now I just continue to wait for her. Hope she's at least on the bus and enroute!

That's not a weak line! Cheapies take a while to get dark so that looks great! Take a FRER and I'm sure it will be super dark! Congrats!

[Girlieplease]

Congrats dreamsister, I got a positive from a digital cb on Wednesday and did a cheap OPK ( I never get a positive on them) as I got them free with my thermometer, the second line was present and reasonable dark but not as dark as the control? What is going on cd 16, usually o on 16 or 17. Anyone heard from maidentomother lately? Hoping she is ok, thanks

[Girlieplease]

Can I also ask if anyone knows the rationale behind keeping the diet going over the 2 ww, I know it makes sense in case one is not successful but I thought I read somewhere pink bean prefer a low glucose environment but if the egg has already been fertilised and it is a blue one surely it would not matter and would not make any difference? Does it make a difference to the successful survival of pink blastocyst if one was fertilised in the first place? Thanks

[sharon]

i actually wondered this too, and slightly fretting now as i hav completley gave upwith the diet since ov this month :(

[Girlieplease]

When did you o sharon? How do you feel about your sway?

[XXforhubby]

It's because the XX embryos implant better in a low glucose environment. There have been studies done to show that the XX prefer a low glucose environment. It's best to stick to the diet until at least 6-9dpo.

It's actually Friday night- 9:25pm to be exact. I'll test probably around 2-3am after I BF DS3 and put him back to bed. This will give me a 5-6 hour hold.

I very well could have ovulated earlier this week. If I get a BFN, I'll definitely know by next Saturday.

Magical22 - there's been a July thread started over in ttc girl if that's your dg? Otherwise I'm sure there'll be one starting in here soon...

I'm trying to second guess my cycle as EWCM continued intermittently after I thought I'd ov so o really don't have clue where I am, and twice around my supposed/potential fertile/ov times we missed BD by a day so it ended up being e5d instead of e4d for two consecutive "sessions".x

[pinkribbon]

Hi everyone

Its my first time posting in 2ww, was wondering has anyone ever had a bfp wih no symptons? im 8dpo and usually have loads of symptons but always result in a bfn i have no symptons at all and was hoping lack of symptons might be a positive sign or am i wishful thinking lol good luck with your bfp this month x

[Pbn3]

Pinkribbon I had zero symptoms and got a bfp 9/10dpo (last month). Didn't even start to get sore bbs until well after. At 7.5 weeks I'm only just starting to experience 'some' bleh/nausea. My lack of symptoms has been very worrying but so far, so good, fx it stays that way! My previous dec bfp I started getting symptoms what seemed like straight away. Sore bbs, feeling bleh by 11/12dpo had a crazy pregnancy dream 8dpo, oddly emotional 7dpo etc etc. That pregnancy didn't make it so its made this one and the lack of symptoms even more nerve wracking! Fx for your testing over the few days!

[XXforhubby]

Well BFN again, hahaha! So I'll wait to test next Saturday. I could have Oed earlier this week based on my CM and cervical position. Oddly enough, I don't have any real symptom either other than the intense O pains I had earlier in the week. They were so bad I couldn't lie on either side comfortably!

FX and GL to those still waiting to test! Magical, you are more than overdue for a BFP! I'm hoping beyond hope that this all works out for you [emoji1317]!

Thank you! I think my fertility is playing peekaboo with me because of the intense exercise I had been doing. I don't want to give it up so I've switched to walking casually with my DS3 instead.

I think I'm STILL gearing up to ovulate! I noticed GOBS of EWCM this Moro G while going to the bathroom. We will keep having attempts just in case.

Congratulations to those with a bpf however feint they are. Fingers crossed for sticky beans! I know I posted this on last thread but I had absolutely 0 symptoms with any of my pregnancies despite my best efforts to invent some. I think I had a few vivid dreams but not till ow or more and that was it. No cm nothing! No extra toilet visits. Quite often I forgot I was pregnant. And I carried 3 healthy girls (all 8lb+) to term. So please don't worry about no symptoms. I used to envy people ss in the 2ww but not when ms struck! I was glad I dodged that.

Xx I can't beleive your cycle! All you can do is keep praying and swaying!

Does anyone know if stress can delay ov. We had a death in the family and I expected a high on my cb today or yesterday but still low. Hoping it's high tomorrow and pos opk on Monday as I would have expected but could being upset and eating crap affect dates? I'm struggling to keep hubby on track for his every 3 days!

Hope everyone is well and having a good weekend xxx

[Girlieplease]

What xxforhubby another negative, your cycle is so up the left, am still hopeful but think it must be the breast feeding as well, my periods did not return until ds2 was nearly a year and they were wacky for a while! I think I o' ed on Wednesday or Thursday, got a sort of positive OPK yesterday and a lighter one today, so hoping that my attempt on Wednesday was enough, going to do the deed tomorrow just in case. good luck to everyone trying, waiting and testing. Am not very hopeful for this cycle, no symptoms of anything yet either pregnancy or af, but it is early, have spots though!

[Faithinpink]

Sorry to hear xxforhubby bfn ..

I tested today 8dpo and bfn... So I'm sure AF will arrive , I was sorta hopeful this month but now I'm sure I'm out.
Good luck ladies xx

[Girlieplease]

Faithinpink am still keeping my fingers crossed for you, am still amazed that people can get such early positives, with my three dc I did not a positive with any of them until 2 weeks after ovulation, so your not out until your out!

I feel am gearing up for af today, bloated so we shall see, af should arrive next Saturday if it is on the way, gl to everyone fingers crossed x

[jennypenny]

I agree with girlieplease! From what I read on various websites last month, it's totally uncommon to get a bfp before 10/11dpo .

Fx for the next few days!!
I plan to start testing on Wednesday where I will be 10dpo at latest (maybe just 8 or 9 dpo though) trying to distract myself until then!

I am feeling ok, no major symptoms that would convince me I was pregnant. Unlike last month when I thought I had everything.

I am kind of dreading testing this week, another bfn month will be depressing!
It's hilarious how I took for granted the bfps I had first month trying with the boys!

felt good with my sway this month, stuck to diet, attempts e4days and felt a bit less stressed about the whole thing. It's only now as I nearer testing time I feel nervous!

How about you? are you happy with your attempt this month?

Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk

[Girlieplease]

Well fingers crossed, sounds like your in with a good shout. I cannot imagine how difficult it is to get even a few Bfn on a few months. I thought I was pregnant in January, we had not been attempting but I was convinced due to symptoms I had, when af I was so devastated and that was from the point of view of not even trying!

Am not feeling positive about this month, think am gearing up for af, I did one attempt in the fertile period, did the deed at positive OPK but my cb monitor never gave me a peak fertility and I ran out of sticks, so not sure I o' ed at all. Going to attempt today just in case. I was tight with the exercise but the diet not so much, I always missed breakfast and stuck to 2 - 3 meals but sometimes I think my levels of fat and protein were way off, we shall see. Am monitoring my temperatures, as I think some ladies on here knew they were pregnant because their temps stayed high, hope that might give me an early insight! X

[jennypenny]

I am going to do temping next month, if it doesn't work out this month. I would like to pinpoint what is going on with ovulation. I had positive opks for quite a few days this month so had no idea when I actually ovulated.
I then had a tiny amount of ovulation spotting the day or so after I thought I had ovulated? Everything I read said you get ovulation spotting before u ovulate! Crazy and confusing stuff!!
Hopefully temping would make things a bit clearer x

[baby2016baby]

I got my peak today. Even though I've had no highs just gone straight to peak. I was expecting it today or tomorrow but no idea why no high days??

I'm beginning to think some of the supps have interfered with my cycles. Before I started ttc I was like clockwork! I'm not sure what vits/supps the girl's diet take but I'm wondering if that's why were all having strange and confusing cycles. Last month I had almost posatives and high fert for 4 days before I got a definate. I'm sure I missed ov by 2 days. Bodies! I can't temp as it doesn't work for me I have low estrogen and a dodgy thiroid. But I know some people swear by it.

Wish me luck and send me blue dust. I've got to bd now for next three days. Can you tell I'm not exactly excited about it lol x

[Inforthree]

We made out attempt last night! This seems like the first normal cycle since taking out mirena. Last month my opks CB and wondfo weren't positive at the same time. This time i got both positives yesterday so I think that's a good sign. I'm not going to test until the 24th bc I tested too many times last month and I felt like it stressed me out!

[XXforhubby]

FX for all of you ladies!

I'm still in it! I think my body is trying to ovulate. We keep having attempts every 3-4 days. I think with the BFing, exercise, and diet, my body needs a little coaxing to release an egg. I've tweaked things a bit. One thing is for sure, my cycles were never this crazy with my boys or when BFing my other 2 boys so I feel like the diet and exercise are definitely working!

Hopefully we will start to see more BFPs!!

[tfahn]

So question of moms with more then 1 kid. Did at any point when you were pregnant have to be careful/stop picking up your other younger kids? Wasnt sure if that was a thing or not. DD is 28 pounds and still likes picked up a lot so just thinking about if/when I ever get pregnant with#2.

[sharon]

Hi girlieplease i ovd on cd18 + im now cd25, i only have a 10 day LP so im due to test in 3 days, i dont feel my sway this month was as good as in previous, mainly due to finding it too hard. Mines quite a weak sway compared to most xx

[sharon]

tfahn i never stopped picking up my DD when i was pregnant with DS until it started to hurt my back!

Tfahn- I stopped with DS1 when I was pregnant with DS2 when it would cause me to have Braxton hicks right afterward. With DS3, I was still picking up DS2 right up until the day I delivered. I had no back pain or Braxton hicks that time. Although, DS2 is a lean at 28lbs at 3 yrs old! He's my tall and lean guy [emoji4].

Tfahn I carried all mine until giving birth. My back could hurt sometimes but never had any Braxton hicks ever. I don't know if you have thought of baby wearing. I plan to sling from birth this time. It's great for baby and leaves hands free to deal with older ones and get stuff done.

[Dreamsister]

Tested again this morning (20 DPO) with a FRER and got two lines (second is still weak though). I am very surprised as my doc said that I had a 3 mm thin and very weak lining that would make it impossible for an embryo to implant. Atomic advised me to eat eggs and full fat dairy and this maybe did the trick. I don't have any symptoms yet, but my stomac has grown real big and I already look pregnant. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160613/e47ee3a5b721fa3f9ee2ed33105e72ac.jpg

Yay! Great news dreamsister! Everything crossed for a sticky bean x

I feel so tired, deflated and generally down today. Af should be due this week and I'm just feeling so downtrodden. My mid cycle weight gain hasn't resolved yet and subsequently my bloated belly hasn't either, yet I have a hen night to go to at the weekend and my body con dress will just look awful with my body the way it is now. I may have to go shopping for a more forgiving outfit to wear, yet more money!!! How's everyone else doing?x

[tfahn]

Congrats Dreamsister!! Nice Second line.

[tfahn]

9 DPO today for me and a BFN on a FRER that I took this morning. Had a bit of a temp drop this morning, which I'm really hoping is an implantation dip, since my progesterone level was high Friday and I'm still taking the progesterone supplements my temp should stay up. If it is the implantation dip then hopefully tomorrow mornings test will show something; that is the way it worked on the cycle I got my BFP with my DD. Fingers crossed for higher temp tomorrow.

[sharon]

Got everything crossed for you tfahn :D Chart looking good

[sharon]

Do you have any symptoms different from usual 2ww ??

[tfahn]

I took a 1.5 hour nap on Saturday. I am just not a napper, even when I had my newborn I did not nap so that was really the only unusual thing for me so far in this 2WW.

[sharon]

I napped alot in the 2ww when i conceived my DS xx

[Girlieplease]

I fell asleep on the sofa on Sunday, unusual for me but then lots of energy in the evening. Usually when am pregnant am exhausted. I think am gearing up for af! Past early symptoms for me would have been sensitive breasts, aversion to smells, hormonal tearful at a drop of a hat! Am having no symptoms as yet bit only about 5 dpo. X

[baby2016baby]

Congrats dreamsister that's a lovely line.

Hope the witch stays away for you all, I know there's alot testing in next few days for my fingers crossed for you all. Sending my pink dust in exchange for blue. O day for me, I've got achey lower back. Hopefully a sign of a good strong egg, just hope it meets a bluey lol

[XXforhubby]

You can gladly have all of my blue baby dust Baby2016baby, and I'd like to grab up any pink dust you have laying around! [emoji597][emoji92][emoji170][emoji843][emoji170][emoji94]!

[Girlieplease]

Baby2016baby can I have some of your pink dust in exchange for my blue that I have in abundance, my dh friend had w baby today, they were team green and were convinced it was a boy, but of course they had a girl! They did not mind either way as it was first baby, I seem to be the only one capable of producing boys around my area! Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh! Dh does not get it at all, he is in grumpy form anyway but saying we have a dd same as them. My dd is also the hardest to manage of my three my boys are very relaxed easy going types, so he is like how could you want to hard to manage children. Can't say too much to him or he will put the foot down about having another baby in case we get a boy! Gl everyone x

Took another test just for peace of mind and to be honest I'm ok with the results despite a very disturbing dream I had before the first bfp, I woke up bleeding with clots.[emoji17] Hope it doesn't mean anything bad, decided not to google it though.

Congrats Dreamsister on bfp![emoji3]
Keep them coming ladies.

Napping was one of the 'symptoms' I had with all my pregnancies. Good luck ladies.

Take all my blue dust baby2016, and I'll gladly take some of your pink dust [emoji6]

Flowerlily lines looking good, I don't hold any store by dreams in that they give any indication of future, they are just your brains way of processing, usually anxiety and stuff from your day. With dd ( first baby) I had a dream she came really early, she was so tiny and not big enough to be born, reality she was ten days over and I still had to be induced ro get her out! Fingers crossed for a healthy sticky pink bean. X

Hahaha! Yep, I'm testing weekly on Saturday mornings. The way I see it I'll either get a BFP or AF eventually! We just keep BDing. Aye-yi-yi!

Lovely tests flowerlily congratulations.

Thanks for the blue dust guys I need it. I can't believe if this month doesn't work we are taking a break. Its hitting me now.

I'm 1dpo and have gone from feeling hot to cold! Ff has updated and suggesting I test on the 24th. That feels ages away! I do wish I could join in syptom sporting but given I've never had any :( I've heard boy and girl pregnancies can be different so if I got a symptom of two of be hopeful it's an opposite. Not sure how true that is though.

Xx I will watch for your next test. I've never tried conceiving when bf but I can imagine it really messed with your cycle. I'm glad my attempt are over. I tried to make it nice but there's something mechanical about releasing every 2/4 days then 3 timed attempts over fertile period. Slipping around like a sausage in a pan with all the preseed and trying to "hold onto as much" gear as possible whilst on all 4s lol. Especially when followed by me lying like a beached whale (after gaining 24 pounds 12 weeks on he) with my legs up in air for an hour. Lord my poor husband :s who said baby making was glamerous :(

[tfahn]

10 DPO and another BFN on a FRER this morning, kinda disappointed but hopefully tomorrow's test picks up something. I am so over staring at these stupid tests trying to see a second line :)

[3'sacharm]

Baby2016baby - when ttc my boys I did everything possible to get pregnant having researched it thoroughly!!! I took all the prenatals recommended, epo high doses to help with EWCM, lots of sex especially around fertile times, hips up on a pillow after sex, multiple orgasms; I caught second month with two and first month with one!!!! Sending you lots of blue dust, good luck!!!


I think I've started with thrush yesterday �� Sorry for tmi but so bloody annoying. I'm so so hungry too, I hate especially hate this part of ttc pink - le diet in tww is a killer!x

[Inforthree]

So true, the diet was a lot easier leading up to TTC now that we're trying and waiting I'm really over it.

Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

[XXforhubby]

I've been on the LE diet for almost 1.5 years now, with only a 9 mo break in there when pregnant with my DS3. It's so second nature to me now that I can't snack even if I allow myself to cheat! I end up just having something I've cut out of my diet instead. It's strange. Even my body type is changing. I'm so lean now.

I allow myself to have cheat foods during the 2ww to help me stay with the diet. For example, I only eat milk chocolate, go up to 50-60g of fat, and ice cream during this time. It totally makes me look forward to the 2ww and it makes sticking to the no snacking so much easier knowing that I have this to look forward to! I sometimes make 2 pans of brownies and 1 pan is just for me for the whole 2ww!!

[Girlieplease]

Can I ask what is probably a very simple question, but how do you count dpo? I did the deed last Wednesday night. Having got a positive OPK earlier in the day, do I count Thursday as day one or because I had sex late on Wednesday evening and it would therefore not be possible to be pregnant before Thursday is Thursday day one or is it in fact Friday if I ovulated on Thursday? Thank you

[Girlieplease]

Just want to add no symptoms here yet, no symptoms of af either am due in five days, maybe am going to have a late period just to toy with my mind!

Women typically ovulate 24-48 hours after getting the first positive opk. So if you got your first positive opk on Wednesday, then you would be 1-2 DPO on Friday.

Goodluck everyone whos testing tomorrow! Im currently 9dpo , tested today BFN ofcourse :/ Dont know what else i expected. :shemademe:

AF arrived this morning 5 days early..
I obviously O'd early just as I thought but didn't go ahead with attempt then bcos I was confused with my cycle , missed that egg as dtd late.
Better luck next cycle, gotta catch that egg as I'm getting alittle feed up .

Yeah i think its best I go for e4d, its just getting too confusing , I have ovulated twice early now and I was always umming and arring about when to dtd so going to take the pressure off myself and try and relax alittle this cycle.
I just feel I'm running out of time , not getting any younger .

[jennypenny]

Hi guys was going to test today but had a tiny bit of brown spotting his morning :(
Not going to bother testing, will just see if this turns into AF in the next day or so. Possibly cd10 today.

So fed up!! Had had such a lovely idea of giving my husband a positive clearblue digital test as part of his father's day present on Sunday.

Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk

[Dreamsister]

Don't worry, Jennepenny, it is still early. I did not get a positive until 18 DPO. I also had lots of brown spotting that made me think AF was just around the corner. But here I am 22 DPO and still pregnant.

Sorry Jenny and faith. And anyone else who the witch has arrived for. Fingers crossed for next month.

Inforthree glad my torture sounds similar to when you conceived blue. Least I'm on the right track sort of. After a failed sway (probably because of compliance as only about 60%) last time I'm going a whole ten yards. Then if it doesn't work at least I can't blame myself.

Ttfahn this is why I won't test early. It's torture either way but your still in till af shows.

Purple I wondered where you were. Good luck for egg arriving soon. We were similar point last month but I've o earlier this month, I think lol.

I'm 2dpo and feeling very normal lol how I love this 2ww.

Hope everyone is well xx

[Dreamsister]

Oh so sorry Jennepenny and Fait in pink. The good thing is that you can have another shot when O arrives. Fx that June is your lucky month. How long are your cycles? Enjoy your chocolate and wine. Alcohol is a no go for me now, and I kind of miss it...

Unless your doc wants you to continue taking it if you have a history of pre-eclampsia, then you'll want to slowly wean off of it over the course of the next 2-3 weeks.
