My chart so far! Lots of bad sleep and no air on a few times so I feel like my temps are way higher than usual. Ovulation should be CD 12 or 13 so just waiting for nowhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180901/ab90e0c108724661e19b9bc368ae458c.jpg

Hey everyone. 10 dpo today. My temps are above the coverline, but in previous pregnancies I remember them being higher. 97.59 this morn. I am not temping regularly because it's stressful, but I was curious. I can't test because it makes me too stressed out when its negative. I was in such a pissy mood last negative.... dunno what to do... and I don't have any tests at home. I have 15 days between O and AF. Af comes on day 16, does that mean anything different with dpo?

Sometimes you can get lower temps in the month you conceive, but I guess it’s what is normal for you. Don’t test it it stresses you out.
Mine are so much higher than ever , but I’m hormonally imbalanced [emoji51]
I don’t think it means anything different? Just that you have a 16 day luteal phase ?
So 6 days left? Good luck 🤞🤞🤞

What are your temps like? I don't know what is normal and high... still feeling nothing and kind of discouraged. Although, I'm good without symptoms, lol. I just really hoped this would be it.

My luteal phase is 16 days so waiting till then was not feasible. But now what? I can't do this forever [emoji24][emoji24]

Mom25boys, maybe you haven't implanted yet? From my understanding you won't make hcg until you implant and it most likely won't register hpt until 2-3 days after implantation. Implantation can be anywhere from 5-14 dpo so :FX: you still haven't implanted. Maybe wait another few days?
I'm 10 dpo today and not much has changed, just a little nausea, back ache, a weird pulling sensation near my right side ovary. I had a ton of symptoms last month and bfn. My luteal phase is 14 days so I'm going to try and hang in for another 3 days before testing. Try being the operative word, lol.

Cycle day 32 and BFN. Not sure when or if I ovulated because I went a relaxed approached with no testing this cycle. Kind of bummed. I really want my kids with not much more than a 2 year age gap and LO is 14 months already. Think I might have to throw out relaxed and test OPK this month. I did tell my husband he can buy a new car (well used) if he impregnates me so hope that motivates him to DTD when needed. Hehe.

I feel as though my symptoms may be due to starting the LE diet, I'm a big meat eater and love dairy, explains our 3 boys tho lol, so minimizing that and skipping breakfast could be the cause of my nausea maybe? And the weird sensation could be due to seeing gyno last week for my annual check up, idk. I may be trying to protect my feelings. A yr of trying and BFN hurt. I really wanted our last 2 kids to be close in age but God seems to have other plans for us.

There is no such thing as normal for me. This was my first cycle back after stopping breastfeeding. With my TTC with #1 my cycles were as long as 45+ days and then got down to about 32 days with the help of Metformin but over the course of 9 months. I have been back on the Met for about 6 weeks so who knows what my body is doing inside. It is a guessing game when you have PCOS.

4dpo is too early for real symptoms but the others could be legit. Last pregnancy I tested at 10dpo and got a bfn then got a bfp at 12 dpo. There's still hope!to

I tested 11dpo and mine was definitely BFN (also pretty sure I have 16 day LP). Personally, I decided to just wait to see if AF show up - I am not going to test again. I am never late so I will only test if AF doesn't show up that day. I also decided next month I won't temp after I get my ov dip. Just going to keep e4d and leave it at that. :) (I am fairly certain I am out this month, I have had dull cramps all day long).
I hope you're not out and you get your BFP! Good luck! :)

That is always my rule...And it was nice.... but then I got disheartened because of all my bfn and no symptoms so I checked a few times. I guess it was my last hope. But I guess I will wait another day or two. Its only the dollar tests so I can do another tomorrow or Friday. I'm not ever late after confirmed O either. My only hopes now are my higher temps.

I feel like a food junkie. The only thing that is ok so far, are my temps. In other cycles they drop instantly at AF so there really isn't a warning, nor is it a help. But they are a tad higher. Temps are not high, but .4 degrees higher than normal. Not much. But a tiny difference enough to keep me hopeful. Ugh. They weren't joking about 2ww. It's awful. My other kids just happened.

Ok I said I would not test until I actually skipped my period but I broke down and tested 13dpo. I have only ever used the digital with my other pregnancies so no clue if this is an evap line? I googled and some people say it's not possible to have an evaporation line with a HCG because the only thing that can cause pink is the actual HCG so just water or urine without HCG would not cause it - is this true? Has anyone tried with, say, DH urine and got an evaporation line (I am thinking I will try this tonight when DH is home). Sorry, these two line tests are all new to me but I am trying to be good about not wasting money...
I had dull aches yesterday like period cramps so maybe (probably) I am just grasping at straws but yesterday and today I kept getting dizzy spells when I was standing which never happens to me. I only get them if I stand too fast but not when I have already been standing.
EDIT: Just tested again, set the timer for 3 sec and then set it for 3minutes. Here is the result. Can you see a faint line?

Big ball of nerves this morning [emoji15] but still hopeful. Got the babysitter the time and the place so now just making it through the day. If all works out we will inseminate in the car [emoji23] that will be a first for me!

Ugh. Im out. And not happy about it... cuz now I'm wondering if I should be going through with this. I'm not getting younger and I already have my hands full... I'm so tired of the diet and exercise and the waiting... AF isn't due till Sunday but I had a bfn on fmu with frer. And its 13 dpo. I know everyone tries to be comforting and says it's not over till AF, but I know there are fluke cases but it's not me. I remember when I had a MC I looked everywhere online for the people who spotting didn't lead to MC, and yeah there were a couple of people, but I still new it ws over. Generally when you are pregnant, you are pregnant. You arent googling 13 dpo bfn eventually becoming a bfp. Lol. I have no signs. Regular post AF temps. Clear stark, undeniable bfn. And I'm feeling discouraged. Not because I think it will never happen, but because I needed it to be fast so I don't second guess. And so I can stop swaying....
Sorry for the rant....

I’m sorry mom25boys, I feel the same exact way. I thought for sure 100% this was my month. Had so many symptoms and stupid af came this morning. I have two boys and lost my 3rd son at 18 weeks and had a chemical pregnancy last cycle. I’m wondering if I should just take these as signs it’s just not supposed to happen for me.

In out too. Got AF! We had our attempt on pos opk day. It was a blazing positive. We conceived DS in one cycle without tracking anything. This time, we've tried since June with opks, CB, FF, CM and no luck. I've stopped swaying as well. No exercise, eating breakfast, whole dairy. I just want to be pregnant :( I'm considering ordering the Ava bracelet today. Anyone tried it and found it helpful?

Sorry about your losses. The last two times I swayed, both pregnancies ended in MC.16 weeks a 8. So I dropped everything and had two pregnancies, DS 4 and DS 5, easily. I guess the only thing I know is it must be lowering fertility. I just dont know how much I want to sacrifice for this. And I'm terrified of MC also... even though everyone claims swaying doesnt affect it. I managed to get pregnant quite malnourished with my first 3 boys.

Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using TapatalkSorry. Totally with you. I blinked and got pregnant with 5 boys. What else were you doing with your sway besides diet and exercise? Dh isnt doing anything. No showers before, no vitamins. I did J&D after about 15 minutes, and went to sleep. Nothing else. No abstinence. I have ZERO libido. O came hard and good. Extreme actually. I thought for sure it was the month. Had blazing OPK too and O on that same day. So BD was a few hours after O.
I'm hungry. Honestly I dont want to see coffee anymore. I started snacking over the day this past week cuz I knew it wasnt the month and it made me sad and low blood sugar didnt help. Didnt exercise either. I will keep pushing off breakfast but I dont think I will continue counting calories. And I think I'm done with aspartame too. I always eat full dairy and never stopped. Started eating fish and chicken. I'll stay away from fortified food... ugh
And now moon phases, Chinese calendar (although debubked), and seasons are ALL not working in my favor for the next few months.

I hear you! I really do, I had 3 boys no worries and I understand how frustrating it is. Have you considered e4d? I’m not sure where you are with that,because you can move from there to e4d plus 1 at OPk, and then there’s a way to move from there. I think it’s SMEP.
Or even posting to atomic ? She would be able to guide you to the next best move ? I would be dropping aspartame and J and D before you drop diet. And maybe look at vegetarian ? Or even look at the LE diet for PCOS ? I believe it is better for blood sugar issues . Sending you much love and luck x

Im going to try to keep low on protein and fat, but I'm going to stop calorie counting. Whatever I eat will be what I eat. Im going to limit meat, but not eliminate. I'll keep skipping breakfast when I can. Just going to be more laid back about it. And I think I'm skipping J&D. I'm going to check out e4d, great idea. I know it is totally normal not to conceive right away. And I know many women wait months and months to conceive. I just don't have that time. Every cycle makes it more probable that I wont go through with it. Its straining on too much. Here's to trying again. To ttc girl in fall winter on a full moon.....
Saying no opk's and no counting calories, and no temping, is like saying I won't test. Ridiculous.

Yeah just try what you can [emoji8] it has to fit into your life, and there’s no point in being miserable . I think if you can move even slightly in a pink direction it can help tilt the odds. How long have you been doing this?
It may be time to change some things?
I also don’t have a great deal of time, so I’ve had to do things that are manageable for me and my family.
I’ve limited red meat, I don’t snack and delay my lunch , I make lots of vegetables or salads at meal times. And try and stay within the fat/protein limits. While adding full fats and some eggs, But that’s all I can manage, time wise and for me personally. I can’t do grains they really mess with my blood sugar.
And I can only do one coffee a day, and sometimes I have to have it with my meal, because especially from O -AF my blood sugar goes haywire. Hormones !!! Argh!!!!
I’ve been doing e4d and it’s actually quiet refreshing and simple , you don’t have to think about it, you just pick your method, 72 or 96hr version and that’s it. No opks or temp If you chose .
Big hugs [emoji847]

I caved in and tested early this morning. I'm 13 dpo and the test was positive before the control line appeared, that's never happened to me before. Is that normal? Is the test defective?

Sent from my SM-G965U using TapatalkThank you! Breathing a little easier now. I just started the LE diet about 2 wks ago but we have been trying for a year now. We dtd only 1 time on +opk and I don't know if it counts as j&d but after 10 min I had to get up to pee and then fell asleep. So not a strong pink sway at all but blue or pink we pray this little one sticks and we get to meet him/her. We were skeptical about the 1 time only but it seemed to have worked! Our prior cycles were dtd a lot more often and we didnt succeed so we are shocked that it worked!
Good luck mom25boys, your little one is special and will be on her way to you soon.

AF came for me which isn’t heartbreaking because I already got my BFN and was just waiting. I am actually happy because that puts my last cycle at only 34 days and being only my second AF since stopping breastfeeding feeding I am happy my cycle is so short. (Sounds long for some but short for me).
Here is to catching that egg this month I hope.
When do you all start testing with OPKs? What day in your cycle? I went relaxed last month and didn’t test but I think I need to know this month.

Temps dropped this morning so about the time I ovulated in the afternoon, is when AF will show. Was really hard seeing all the positives, although I'm so happy for everyone. Just it took so long to start a new cycle and I ovulate late as well and trying for a pink in the winter on a full moon just makes this feel hopeless. And I'm tired of exercise and diet. First time in my life for these things and coffee, it makes me wonder if it's worth it. It will probably be a boy anyhow and I'm feeling like I'm losing months of my life... makes me think good and hard about what I'm doing.

Sorry if I’ve missed anyone xHi hopeful! How are you doing? I've not been keeping up here too often. So I did get the Ava and been wearing it the past 3 nights. It's too soon to tell. It is comfortable to wear to bed. The best thing for me is that the bracelet automatically records my BBT(along with other things) and I don't have to. I have a 3 year old and can never seem to temp accurately. I'll see how it goes and update!

Oh that sounds very convenient! Yes please update, I think I might get one.
Temps are so hard to do with young kids. So that would take the hassle out of it, by the sounds of it.
I’m moving onto SMEP now, I’ve done e4d for 3 cycles then 1 cycle of e4d + one at positive OPk , this last cycle I ovulated on CD8, so didnt get a chance to do anything so e4d it was Haha !

I would say you o'ed CD 14 from the looks of it! Google unusal temp rise after ovulation. There should be some ff article about different patterns you can see after o that differ from the normal immediate rise

Strawberry I just happened to be perusing new posts in a quick check in and seen yours.... I'm pretty sure I recall mentioning to you a couple times that you may be in the minority of people that o 3-4 days after pos opk hence my last recommendation (if possible with donor of course) of two inseminations between cd10 and cd14? Cant quite recall the exact days but was based on your previous o history?

Sent from my SM-G960F using TapatalkYes i remember that! What throws me off so much this time is my temps line up with me oing on my + opk the last three months with temp drop and rise right on schedule. This month is the latest + opk ive ever had on CD 14 for two years they have been CD 12 or 13 consistently so I'm wondering if i did something different this month to make everything not my normal? With everyone working and him living a few towns over i only get one attempt on a day i have to give notice for [emoji15] so as of right now i said october 1st as my period should be here Sept 20 and everyone is off that Monday. That would be CD 12 so hopefully close enough?

Sent from my LG-M150 using TapatalkYour chart looks totally normal to my inexperienced eyes. You had a positive opk and rise after. That is what mine does every month. Actually, I get +opk on the day of O only. I literally O within 2-3 hours.
Sorry it is a later O than regular. I'm waiting for AF to go away so I can stay again.... I hope it all happens soon. Lucky you, you have short cycles. It will be here soon enough. Fx

Sent from my LG-M150 using TapatalkYes it can. Your luteal phase will generally stay the same so regardless of what cd you o, your af due date will be after your usual lp. Lp can change over time with diet though. Mine got down to 10 days during my le diet days, yet lengthened over time back to 13 days after I stopped.

Need to vent- in the last week I have found out that three people I am close to are pregnant. One of them in my younger sister who is not married and very much not ready for a kid (very hard to even pretend to be happy for her given the situation). The other is a cousin whose first is 4 months younger than my first and she is already pregnant again. Her kids will be 17 months apart. I very much wanted baby #1 and baby #2 to be about 2 years apart, would have preferred 22-24 months apart but now that is out the window because I barely got my cycle back after BF for 13 months and now we are past the 24 months apart. I am trying not to regret it, but I keep thinking I should have stopped BF earlier so I could get my cycle back faster. I had to go on metformin because of PCOS and even though it is safe, I didn’t want to take it while still BFing. BTW- I am so super happy for the third person who is a good friend who has been trying and trying and had one miscarriage already. I know I am being selfish but the fact that my little sister is pregnant when she could barely take care of herself is really upsetting me because here I am trying (along with all of you ladies) and then there are girls out there who accidentally get pregnant so easily. I have not told a soul on earth that I am trying again so it makes me feel like of alone with my feelings about this.
End rant…thanks.

Hello ladies it's been a couple of weeks since I've posted on here... And so much has gone on in this thread I'm not sure where to begin?!
Firstly, congratulations to those who have their BFP... seeing these always makes me happy and hopeful [emoji4]
And ladies who are struggling (sorry I've read so many posts I can't remember user names) I'm right there with you, almost to the point of giving up completely. It's been 18 months of ttc journey for me, a couple of breaks due to timing etc and my ectopic, so I completely understand how tiring and draining swaying can be... wanting something so bad but there's no sign that it'll all fall into place any time soon.... And this is where I'm at, I know that if I want this to happen I need to have faith that it will, believe in myself and my body's ability to carry a healthy new baby (boy in my case) into this world... regardless of what life and my body throws at me I have to remain positive, thankful and willing to receive! But I tell you what it's damn hard to stay positive!
... so just to recap, since May this year my cycles have been crazy long and I can't tell when I'm ovulating.... no opks just temps. This last cycle my DH and I decided we'd have a break and not ttc to see if my cycle would return to normal. FF gave me crosshairs exactly when I thought ovulation was occurring and I honestly thought my cycle had returned to normal... I was wrong. A few days after that FF removed the crosshairs and they haven't returned yet... no AF as yet and I really have no clue as to where I'm at with this cycle.?! Either my AF will show up when she pleases or a very sneaky surprise bfp! Who knows? I'm not sure what I should do next.

You don’t ovulate at the time you get a positive. Most woman ovulate 12-48 hours after a positive opk test. If you DTD that night I think you have a good attempt. Now starts the two week wait!!

Absolutely! You don't have to DTD the exact moment you get a positive. That would be impossible with most people testing in the daytime and working. The test is not telling you that you ovulated, it is telling you that the hormone your body makes BEFORE ovulation has peaked. It could take a day or more to actually release the egg and if you had your attempt that same day you got the pos OPK that is a GREAT ATTEMPT, doesn't matter that the test went negative again. Really you should feel great about it. Lots of baby dust your way!

Killer cramps today! Ugh. I am guessing yesterday’s OPK was indeed my positive and these are ovulation pains. It is bad. Kind of sad because we DTD Sunday afternoon but couldn’t do it again yesterday because hubby was working late. I may go for an attempt tonight after the baby goes to bed but I think that will be too late. Here we go for the two week wait.

So for the first time, I decided to go for e4d cuz temping had been difficult this cycle. We BD on Sunday night and today I got blazing positive for morning and afternoon. Now at 8 PM its negative. I don't know what to do. Ttc girl with one attempt. I think sunday is too far. I usually get a temp rise the morning after the positive opk. Do I attempt tonight or is it too soon? Or tomorrow night which will be 72 hours since last BD, but maybe too late.

Ohhh tough one, it’s totally your call, but I would think , do tomorrow night, your BD on Sunday would cover you if you ov between now and tomorrow , and if ovulation is delayed your next one would cover that.
That was always my interpretation of how e4d works. GL x

Killer cramps today! Ugh. I am guessing yesterday’s OPK was indeed my positive and these are ovulation pains. It is bad. Kind of sad because we DTD Sunday afternoon but couldn’t do it again yesterday because hubby was working late. I may go for an attempt tonight after the baby goes to bed but I think that will be too late. Here we go for the two week wait.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkThat is my thought. It's already a huge and beautiful full moon, I dont want to add too many sways. Anyhow, last month I had everything worked out to perfection. Moon, chinese calendar, perfect diet and exercise, one solid attempt, and nothing happened. So now, full moon, lax exercise, rare temping, falling from pcos le to straight up le diet... confused when to attempt. Lol. Perfect time. I have 5 boys already. What's another. Hahaha

So for the first time, I decided to go for e4d cuz temping had been difficult this cycle. We BD on Sunday night and today I got blazing positive for morning and afternoon. Now at 8 PM its negative. I don't know what to do. Ttc girl with one attempt. I think sunday is too far. I usually get a temp rise the morning after the positive opk. Do I attempt tonight or is it too soon? Or tomorrow night which will be 72 hours since last BD, but maybe too late.
Ahhhh. What do I do????https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180926/9f57e9c8e3ca4ddb356e41708abb479a.jpg

I know it is late now and you probably already made a decision but they usually say to either stick with the E4d or you can have one extra attempt at positive opk. It is your call on how quickly you want to get pregnant I think. Good luck.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI didn't go for last night. Ovulation makes me feel pretty sick anyhow, so I was happy to pass. Im hoping atomic tells me sometime today if I should go for tonight. Temps didn't confirm O yet, just 96.76 so its probably happening over today. I figure if there are still swimmers up there, they can attack, and if they don't, I should probably go for tonight. But it's only 72 hours, so I'm really not sure....

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI bd sunday and got positive opk on Tuesday. Temp was still low on Wednesday morning. BD again Wednesday night, 72 hours, and it was so busy so it was quick and quick J&D. No idea how that can even work. But it should cover an attempt. This morning my temp went way up so O should be complete. I guess my 2ww is here....
Last month I had everything covered. Chinese calendar, moon, diet, exercise, everything. Now it was all wrong. So whatever. I just couldn't push it off just because of those things.
Was the first time in probably a year, at least, that I O'd from my right ovary. Left one always turns into a huge cyst and things are quiet now. Only 1-2 times a year does that happen if at all.

Was just wondering the same. Where is everyone at? This was the most relaxed cycle yet. Did not exercise very often, didn't count calories. Just skipped breakfast and didn't snack. Didn't temp very often, just by O to confirm. Did a few opks only. Did e4d. No idea if that had good results ttc girl, but it was definitely calmer.
In 2ww over here. Not even sure where. Probably 2dpo. What's happening out there in the quiet world??

I was doing e4d up until recently and it was so easy!
It is really quiet! Yeah I’m 6dpo, my cycles have returned back to normal. Interesting it’s been around the time I’ve decided to relax far more about everything this month.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkDay 50 and still counting....
Thought I was ovulating the other day due to ovulation pains but temps don't match up.
I did a first response digital and it was a "no -" I didn't think I was pregnant and with the digital there's no second guessing with possible squinters
Went to a Doctor and he said just wait a little longer. He's not my usual doc, nor was it his speciality.... so I'm waiting. Don't get me wrong he was nice but just young and didn't have answers.
So I'm giving it another 2 weeks, if no period or bfp I'll see about getting my period induced. Or testing done.
And yes, I thought the same that it was very quiet this month.
Hope everyone is well [emoji4]

I am still here too. CD22 and I am pretty certain I Oed on CD19 so 3 days into the TWW. The TWW sucks.
Really hopeful we get some BFP soon. I figured out if this is my month the due date would be 7 days before my daughters birthday. Is that bad to have two kids with birthdays so close? (They would be 2 years apart in age).

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI know tons of kids with similar birthdays. No big deal. I didn't plan or date any of my kids and it worked out fine. I wouldn't worry. Also it's hard to plan when you cant be certain it will actually happen for you when you want.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkAnything can happen... you might go early and it'll be a 2 week gap between the two. My daughter was due about 2 weeks after my birthday, she decided to surprise me and come early and arrived the day before my birthday. It's also around the same time as mothers day so it's a rather busy time.
Just means being organised. And remembering who's birthday is first [emoji23]

https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6a760fOh man. That is some time away. Truth is there have been such things in my cycles, like one super crazy long one. Where I would be convinced something was broken or the bfn sticks were broken. I don't remember any extra stress, but something wonky happens with eggs sometimes. Like anovulatory cycles or too much exercise... so frustrating. It's this endless waiting game. I hope they can help you there.

How long was your rogue crazy long cycles? I haven't done anything out of the norm, still eating fine, definitely don't over exercise [emoji23] not stressing. So the only answers I will get will be from the doctors..... my partner thinks it'll be the Guinness book of records longest cycle.
