May 4th, 2017, 06:55 PM
I was trying to save the frer's for the AM so I got this idea to pull out the cb digi thinking that I'd also get a smiley if preggo. Blank circle ugh...does that mean anything? I'm thinking maybe I'm just not pregnant :( 2 days until AF ugh. I usually get PMS the day before with an agitated feeling. Haven't gotten that yet...we'll see tomorr.

That's an early BFP on a Wondfo, Lola! I never got anything like that in a non-BFP cycle- only stark white. All of my early BFPs looked like that. I bet tomorrow with FMU, you should have nice, light colored lines!!
Oh, and the digit opks aren't good at determining early pregnancy- the ICs are best for that.

Thanks for the reassurance pbn, Ash & XX! I have 4 frer's left I think, but I didn't drink very much today to test this PM & unfortunately didn't use a frer then or save any urine. Now I'm filled up with liquids!! Why does the line seem to show up more clearly on the wondfos vs the frer?? My frer this AM was pretty much white. I won't use the OPK digi again...thought of the idea at the last min, but don't like seeing an empty circle!!!

Good old af has shown but that was no surprise. I had a 30 day cycle with an almost positive opk on cd19 (making O day cd 20) giving me an lp of 10 days.
I think ive had this for some time not sure why.
DH is really annoying me. I wish he'd get a vasectomy and be done with it.
I won't be making any attempts to convince DH to ttc during May or June as due dates are around another ds bday. Plus I need a little more time to think.
Dreaming- i think i see a line on there

Pbn3
May 5th, 2017, 05:59 AM
You've had a large jump (spike) in temp from 9dpo to 10dpo. Your charts is difficult to interpret as there are temps missing and lots of open circles. I still believe you are a day less dpo than ff is saying so 9dpo currently. Can you think of the reason behind the open circles? Are you temping at a different time each day?
Sumbal
May 5th, 2017, 06:01 AM
I am checking on the same time but yes entering data into ff is changed so might be system is taking it in circles due to this. Yeah I am on 9 dpo but is this spike indicate anything?
Pbn3
May 5th, 2017, 06:04 AM
Does that mean you are temping around the same time each morning but entering the data into ff at different times during the day? Sorry I'm confused.

I have a small temp increase today....hoping that I'm close to O or already did yesterday. DH had a client dinner and wasn't home from work until I was already asleep, so we didn't get to BD last night. Think we should tonight or leave it be at this point?

Hi TGIF!! Only have time for a quick update and I'll come back to catch up. Not much to report though...same story, diff day haha. There's still a faint line on the wondfo, but nothing on the frer. I have that AF feeling in my abdomen as if it's going to start any minute...not feeling my usual PMS agitation. I'm wondering if maybe the wondfo picked up another CP, but the frer barely picked it up :( Can't wait to come back & read updates on my next break!

Netti-sorry about AF-I have a feeling I will be joining you soon-not too confident.
Sky-hope you're hanging in there! Sounds like some fun things to do with DD to get out of the house when she's better!
Pbn-how are things?! Will you test again in the AM?? I'll be getting off work around then I think & don't want to miss a thing!
Iwant4-checking in on ya! Hope you're recovering & relaxing! I think you said you were going a business trip though right? No rest for the weary!
Sumbal-can't wait for you to test!! What kind are you getting & when??
Dreaming-I feel like I see a shadow. I'd try a diff type of test though..another wondfo or frer.
Ash-how are you feeling this AM? On cloud 9?? Just in time for Mother's Day [emoji173]That first appt is always such a looonng wait to get to-worse than the 2ww! Can't wait for your appt & praying for a healthy baby!!! Anymore pretty dresses? 🤣 It's so fun girl shopping isn't it? When I buy dresses for my nieces, I always wish it were for my #3, but think maybe we'll see it again as a hand-me-down haha.
AFM-reminding myself that I have never seen a line in the wondfos before until this cycle. I would think that the frer would pick it up too though. I'm grasping for things that mean I'm preggo, but fear that AF is on her way, even though she is not welcome! BBs sore-don't get that as much with AF, frequent urination, strong smells, AF feeling in abdomen, exhausted...took the wrong exit this AM lol-would be nice to blame on baby brain!! Anyone here ever get multiple BFNs, then a BFP later??

Thanks Maxim! Sounds like a good plan to test tonight if AF doesn't show before then! Only 3 frer's left now!! Is my chart showing? Maybe I deleted on the post with my pics.
Shinay-I'll let the experts chime in more (I think pbn may be asleep), but it does look as though cd18 may have been O day. You won't be able to know for sure, but it looks like it's pretty narrowed down to those 2 days on your chart. Remind me-boy sway?

Ash - I would stop temping. You temp can go all over the place and it not mean a thing. I would hate for you to be worried about nothing. Once you get your BFP - temps are not reliable.

Just had a big temp dip this morning. So feeling like it didn't stick. I'm preparing myself for that now. This morning's test just has a bad evap line, no color. My wondfos don't arrive until later today. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170505/1ac18d9bfd281866faf7662c4fc29b4e.jpg

Dreaming- hope that's not the case :( I've been researching & have been reading of a lot of cases where the wondfos were more sensitive than frer & some didn't get a BFP on the frer until 3days later! Hope your wondfos arrive soon!!!
Shann-I didn't know that about temping once preggo, so glad you could clarify!
Ash-you've had good, strong lines-doesn't sound like you need to worry with temp [emoji5]Hmm, wonder what cute dress you'll find on Monday lol.

Maxim-I always have bad cramping for 2-3 days on my right side around O. Not sure if it's normal, but normal for me! It sounds like you're having bad O pains, but if you're doubled over in awful pain that doesn't improve with a warm heating pad, maybe you should get it checked out. Mine was strongest on the 3rd day, prob O day. You had pretty bad cramps last time right? How does this compare?

Have you thought about getting betas to see if the pregnancy is viable? I would trust bw much much more than test progression. Fx you have a slow cooker ❤
Dreamingella this sucks :( can't wait for your wondfo test and hope its a blaring bfp to put youe mind at ease.

We dtd once on cd12 so I'm assuming I had to o the next day in order to conceive as I've never conceived from a 2-o onwards attempt. Cant even remember feeling strong o pains, felt more like I was gearing up? My cm had turned post o when I checked out of curiosity on cd14 I think it was? I was soooo surprised as cd13 is a day early for me and I though for sure it'd be a later o because I successfully delayed it to cd16 the cycle before!!!

So my past mc's were 4w6d, 10w (bub measured 8w6d) and 5w1d so I'm pretty prone to early losses.

Ash the nausea will be back. It's very early days and mine has come and gone all day yesterday. If you're looking for reassurance I strongly recommend you request betas as line progression on hpts can cause unnecessary fear. 48 hour bw will give you an accurate idea on where you're at now (viability wise) The thing is, all you can do is hope. Things can go wrong even with awesome line progression and excellent betas (which mine were for 10w mc) but for peace of mind this early into the pregnancy get the betas!! 😀

Shinay hi and big welcome! Either cd18 or 19 is possible but temp wise I'd lean more to cd19. Are you temping vaginally? Were you using opks or checking cm?
I am temping orally now, but i might switch to vaginally if this doesn't work out well...So when you temp vaginally, how do you do it? Do you try to get close to cervix?
For me, i dont think i could rely on CM. Someday I feel there's a lot, but someday I don't find much. I have been trying to drink lots of lemon water to help produce more CM. But then drinking lots of water will dilute your urine for the opks...urghh so frustrating. Do you have any suggestion? I try to drinking lots of water in the morning, then drink less after1(ish)pm so I could test at 5pm. I will post the opks this weekend for your advice since i think i will O this Sunday or Monday.

Most dip test opks are best taken between 11am and 3pm and you should definately limit your fluids 2-3 hours before testing. Double check your opk instructions to be sure. Just take sips here and there if you need to but no gulping lol! And try and hold for at least 2 hours prior to testing. This is why I found the cb dual hormone digi opks so awesome, they alone use fmu for testing so no worrying about holding or dilution etc. If this cycle doesn't pan out, maybe consider them for next cycle. Its the dual hormone ones only (the ones with flashing smiley) that use fmu, the regular cb digi's don't.
Definately switch to vaginal temping next cycle if there is one :) The bbt only needs to be inserted so the tip is fully immersed. I would insert mine the approx distance from fingertip to first knuckle. Have a practice by inserting the bbt alongside your index finger then remove your finger and you'll get an idea where it feels internally. No need to go poking up around cervix :)

Sumbal-can't wait for you test!!! Come on BFP!!! It is sounding very good :)

Sky & shinay-I wasn't charting when ttc DS1 & DS2. Just looked at what days I thought I was supposed to O & it worked out! I also have bad O pains, so I know we had about 2-3 attempts in that window.

Did you mean the advance cb? I read online that lots of ppl have problem with the advance cb. That's why I got the regular cb (pink version, i think). If my pink cb tests are out and i am still not pregnant, i will get the advance one. I hope that i will have good news this month since it is our anniversary. That would be such a wonderful gift :)

Skyblue: I am at cd 16. My cycle is so long. about 34-36 days. I expect to O soon since cervix is higher, softer and slightly open now. I will try to post my chart later for you to see.
My BD this cycle sucks. DH had lots of stress and wanted to postpone, didn't want to have sex even...Then boom, he changed his mind on CD 14 which puts me 4 days before O which could sway girl. So Atomic advised me to dtd on cd15, cd17, 18 and 19 in case O comes earlier or later. This weekend, I will check couple times a day to make sure i don't miss my surge.
How about you?

I have a 28 day cycle. I get my pos opk on cd16 mostly. We try to have 3 attempts during those 2 days. The night of solid smiley,next morning n night but haven't bn able to achieve that in the last two ttc months. Only had two attempts which weren't too bad but didn't result in bfp unfortunately. I need to give eod a serious thought now as it worked for most ladies here. Not sure if I will be brave enough to do it though. [emoji51][emoji51][emoji51]

You have a good chance if you continue BD as planned. I also read poor reviews about advanced cb digi ones but they work fine for me. I follow the instructions to start testing based on my cd.
Fx for a bfp and a blue bundle.

So at hobby lobby tonight the lady cutting my fabric says "your so lucky I'd rather have 4 boys than 1 girl" wth is wrong with people?! My heart just sank when she said that. I had no idea what to say, then at checkout I'm looking at the cute hairbows I bought and reality hit! I could have a girl am I doing the wrong thing trying to sway, what if she turns out a Hellian like everyone says girls are, what if she hates me, what if dh likes her better! All these thoughts it's a bit scary all because of one rude lady

Iwant4kids-lovely view! Maybe a business trip is just what the dr ordered! Glad you are recovering well :) Fx AF arrives soon!!
Sky-I would consider BD EOD and several times at pos OPK!
Shann-with DS1, that sounds girl friendly, wow it sounds like diet played a huge role! I am a vegetarian & eat low fat & protein naturally...BUT had boys...so I believe maybe supplements play a role in it too: FertileCM and Soy Isoflavones. I did snack on little items throughout the day, but still low-cal.
Ash-I sooo hope you have your girl!! She already has the cutest wardrobe!! [emoji166]
Pbn-excited thinking about how girl friendly your BD attempt was!! [emoji175]
Shinay-I've been trying to interpret cervix changes-sounds like you have a good handle on that! I haven't noticed open/closed. Usually feels open to me, but not sure.
Well, I POA wondfo this afternoon & it's looking much lighter I believe :( I didn't limit liquids very well today, but still feel like I should see a better line by now. I predict that AF will arrive tomorr. I worry every time I go to the bathroom that I'll see my unwanted visitor!! I'm not sure I have the energy to go through all of this again for a 5th cycle. Still have my dr appt...maybe it'll give some hope ruling out an issue.

Lola hang in there! IF you do begin another cycle you can and will do this!!! We will be here to cheer you on 🎉 You know you CAN get pregnant and if it is a chemical this cycle (praying its not :( ) then it will only strengthen your sway for next cycle. Would you consider e3d as a bd pattern to lessen the stress? Or was this cycle ok bd stress wise? When is your doc appt again?
Shinay sorry if you've said before but what is your bd plan?
Iwant4kids gorgeous view 😀 and glad you've had a chance to recover in style xx

Hi ladies... quick update. With the temp dip this morning came cramps this afternoon. I got my wondfos but they are stark white. So whatever was there doesn't seem to be any longer. I'm expecting AF in the next day or 2.
Lola, hang in there. I completely understand your feelings about continuing this journey. It's been 9 months for me. My friends who got pregnant when we were first starting this swaying journey are all having their babies now. So it's hard and discouraging but I keep reminding myself that time doesn't really matter. I'm still hoping you got this but also sending good thoughts your way to keep going. FX!
Ash, Pbn3 - so incredibly excited for you and please keep us posted on progress. I'll be keeping an eye out. :)

Good morning ladies!
Lola, honestly if you can keep your appt I would. What I've learned through this process is that you can't predict or expect anything. It's best to go in and just have them rule out anything via ultrasound, etc. that said, my OB said they typically won't do that until you've tried for 6 months. Anything new this morning with temps?
Dreaming, sorry to hear that, but it's not over until AF arrives. Fingers crossed for you.
Sunbal, how many dpo are you?
Iwant4, gorgeous view!! Glad to hear you're feeling ok. Did you decide about trying next cycle or not?
Pbn and ash, feeling good?
I had a temp increase today in the 98's (coupled with the positive opk and awful cramping), so I think I finally O'd!! You ladies that understand charting better than me, do you think it happened yesterday or day before? Either way, I have one attempt at 0-1 or 0-2 which makes me so happy! Now the waiting...

Both ovaries develop eggs every month. Even as many as 15-20 eggs per side develop and then only the very, very best one or two are released. This means your ovaries can get quite sore and swollen prior to ovulation even if it is not the ovary that is going to ovulate, and additionally this pain can continue after O as those eggs are reabsorbed. In fact many have reported worse pain on the side that DIDN"T ovulate! This is all why you cannot use O pain to tell you when you've Oed.

Wow, you learn something new every day!! I had bad pains both yesterday and the day before, with yesterday being awful cramping on both sides. I thought that was O, but interesting to hear that I could have already O'd prior to that and it was the process that you're describing above!
Shinay, make sure that you're testing after a hold. I was taking my tests at the wrong times, as atomic explained to me. The peak is between 1-3pm, so I was holding from 10am-1pm and testing at 1pm. Got my positive opk that way and missed it previously with my other cycles.
Lola, I definitely see it on both FRER and IC. Sorry that it's in limbo right now, but your temps still look good. Hoping AF stays away!!

Shinay-I used preseed DTD, didn't do anything ahead of time & I'd say an amount the size of a nickel maybe. Like many lubes, if you use too much, it can make it a little too smooth & doesn't help DH due to less feeling...def notice that with sylk lube!!

It's definitely there and that's the same pregnancy test I used when I conceived my daughter 9 years ago! So excited for you!

Hi Lola
I definitely see the cross fx fx fx
Fx for you Max I hope you get your Mother's day surprise xx
Ok ladies i said to myself I would test this morning (sunday) if Af hasn't started properly and it hasn't. I started spotting red Friday night and since Saturday mostly brown. It has not been enough for a liner. My only thinking is im not quite at the 14dpo (i can't really confirm O either only guesstimate) maybe its just early af spotting. I have had this once or twice in my lifetime. Mostly though af starts on the 2nd day of spotting. She feels imminent and will probably show up as soon as im done here.
I did a frer this morning surely there would be a line. Sometimes i feel like i could see something but i think i just have line eyes.
Can someone do that funny thing they do with the pics?
I have strange pregnancy type feeling bbs this morning unless thats af on her way
Thanks for listening to my craziness ladies xxhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170506/1b23002505b1d59dbf2381b07228799a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170506/c880627aee936931ef2302ef0dafd42d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170506/d818c478b2d896f214a4d94a30db0ccd.jpg

Lolla - Did u use both Preseed and Fertilecm tablets?
Pbn, Ash - How are u feeling?
Ash - Don't pay attention to the comments of the lady at hobby lobby. I can tell u that your dd will be awesome just like u. And u are going to love seeing your dh with her. Trust me. Not to forget the big brothers. I can tell u she will be one lucky girl with so much love around her. And u will love dressing her.
Max - I m waiting to see the test. Fx for u. Praying for your Mother's Day bfp.
Shinay - How is it going?
Dreaming - Fx for u. I see the lines.

Sky-I did do a 3hr hold with limited liquids. I did use both preseed & the fertileCM pills as well as soy isoflavones (I believe CD 3-7).
Mommy2Apples-thanks, that makes me happy to hear!
Shinay-the last time I used the digi, I saw "Not pregnant"...think I'd rather think there might be a chance lol.
Netti-are those the older type straight frer's or the newer rapid result?

Lola I have seen lines on all your tests. I honestly think if af isn't here by today you should organise betas. You temps are still up and I'm hoping so bad that this is your sticky bean. I'd stop testing and get bloods.
Shinay be very careful with preseed! As lola said too much can definitely be too much for dh 😂😂 I would only insert about 1cm up inside. Any more and dh felt desensitized... remind me again are you charting? Sorry there's so much going on I forget things 😬
Oh wow dreaming!!!!! I'm so so so so so happy to see this 😀🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 ( I'm working my way backwards through the comments) I would say the same to you as I said to Lola - go in for 48 hour betas!!!!!!
Maxim woohoo for o!!!! 🎉👊👊👊 and I think your 1dpo :) I wouldn't test mothers day either. Maybe day after???
Hi and welcome back mummy2boys!! Hope you've recovered from your tonsillitis 😦 my sister used to get it really bad (they ended up removing) but I still remember how sorry I used to feel for her :( On the upside yay for leaving af behind and getting closer to the business end of things! So what's the plan this cycle? E3d or e4d? One attempt at pos opk?
Sumbal when are you testing again?! Will it be with fmu? Cant wait!!! And can you screenshot your chart for me?
Sky how are you dear lady ❤ have you been thinking about your bd pattern any further? Was cd17 o on the later side for you last cycle? I thought for some reason you usually oed around cd14 and that was another reason I thought eod would be excellent for you as would only be 5 bd's.....
Ash my nausea comes and goes and my bbs soreness varies as well. I'm just trying to keep calm and get past when af would be due at the latest which will be Tuesday. I cant bring myself to post in the ddg just yet but hopefully soon :)
Another thing that's in the back of my mind is the fact that me and dh hadn't bded since previous cycles attempts when we dtd. This is what happened with my 2nd mc, and I found out he hadn't released for like three weeks. I'm too scared to ask if he released during our last cycle ttc attemptsand when we dtd that resulted in this pregnancy. I'm trying to remain as ignorant as possible this pregnancy (no more testing, no betas) so I think I'll just leave it be and not ask...
I can see more posts have come through so I'll check them out after posting this.

Lola I barely had a line on my frer when digi picked it up! I am not a fan of the new curved ones at all. With a line like this one I bet you'd get bfp on digi..... you should do it lol

Lola i think these are the old style. It didn't say rapid response on the box.

Ok got pics back and inverted first one but couldn't see anything... I still feel like I *might be catching a glimpse of a line but I'm not confident and would say bfn :( but you can see IRL and very faint lines are awfully hard to photograph!

Aw thanks pbn, yeah I think I need mine removing, I do get it quite often and it's awful [emoji30]
I think I'm having to just go with whatever hubby wants as he's still not 100% for tying again. It will probably end up at every 3 days as that will keep him happiest [emoji6]
It's a tough one about whether you should ask your dh if he has released or not..I would need to know and not knowing would make me more stressed but I can completely see how it might be better to try and forget all about it and just focus on the positives. Nausea is a good sign too!
Netti- don't think you are being crazy at all, it sounds like it's not too usual for you to have this kind of spotting so hopefully that's a good sign

If anything brings on af its talk of a possible faint line :( hopefully she stays well away. Also if you did want to test then your urine after a sleep following night shift would be equivalent to fmu :)

Thanks guys. I feel she is imminent with af cramps and all but that has been the last few days. Ill keep you updated

Lola - that is so positive, my friend! I definitely understand the desire to keep calm and continue POAS! Should we make a shirt that says that, you guys?!
Netti - whatever happens, I hope for you that it's swift. The limbo period is so painful. FX for you tho!
Now ladies, I'm trying to contain myself. But you know I'm an addict. So I POAS about 2.5 hours ago and again just now with diluted urine and... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170506/6cd56518534995bb263851e0b21aa370.jpg

Pbn3- I understand being cautiously optimistic. We BDed only once when I conceived my DS2. We hadn't BDed in 3-4, because I was so depressed from having a miscarriage and not conceiving. My DH didn't release either, and I was so nervous that I would end up miscarrying again. I didn't! And wouldn't you know that my DS2 is the most tenaciously independent child you could imagine?!
🤞🏻for a healthy, sticky (hopefully [emoji178]!) bean!!

I used the cb digi pregnant and not pregnant and I don't know where your located but I've read weeks estimator is most sensitive but there not in us

Dreaming-agree with Ash, I believe the cb digi with weeks estimator is supposed to be the most sensitive, but I think the regular ones are good too-Ash is a great example! [emoji4]I just tried the EPT analog test & it seemed to show better than the curved frer.
Netti-the reason I asked which frer is b/c I was just researching all the tests before I went to the store. The first response rapid result is not as sensitive at 50 & meant to use after 15dpo. I think the old school frer's are much better!
Ash-think I may be brave & try a digi in the AM with fmu if AF hasn't arrived [emoji15][emoji1374]

Oh & dreaming-this won't help today, but pretty sure the cb w/weeks estimator were all pulled off the shelves in the US, but you can find them on e-bay.
