I'm still waiting on af- it's one day late but still got a bfn this morning even though my temp jumped up so who knows! Maybe my Lp is finally becoming longer than 9 days after 3.5 years?
Ladies, ill be cheering you all on for those BFP's. Dont think Ill join in ttc this month, so Ill probably be sad and lonely in June ttc thread because you're all going to get lucky before then I know it!
LOL emshe you won't be lonely in the June thread as I will still be here! Been on the TTC boards since last July and seem destined to never move on. Not that I want to - I've "met" so many beautiful ladies on this board and love following your journeys as much as my own. But it would be nice to be pregnant with a rainbow baby. :) But regardless, I will still be around :) So have you decided to hold off in May and try in June w/Clomid?
Kitten - I know, I'm on CD30 and I've never had this long a cycle in my life! Seriously. My cycles are normally 24-25 days with a 10 day LP. However I ovulated late and I've been taking progesterone at night. Going to stop that tomorrow and hopefully AF arrives soon for both of us.
Gafan - really really hope this is your month!!!
Hope af shows up soon ABC. I'm used to the long cycles mine can be 35 days long but my lp is always 9days- even before ds2 but I'm not used to af being late.. all tests are negative and having some serious cramping this afternoon so I have no idea what's going on with me- just want to know one way or another!
It's gonna be MAY! (couldn't help myself with the NSYNC reference)
Still waiting for AF, but I think she will be here tomorrow. Temp dropped to today and these cramps and weepiness makes me think tomorrow is the day.
Hoping hoping hoping for so many BFPs this month!
Hey ladies! I’m hoping to see some familiar ladies in here. It’s my last month ttc and my OPKs and temps are throwing me for a loop. Here’s my latest OPK today. So there is a chance that my body is gearing up to ovulate. Although my chart wants to believe it was 6 days ago. Agghhhhhh.
Any insight? I want to believe I’ll have a chance this month. I’m currently cd19, non medicated cycle after 2 months of Clomid. Antibiotics in the early days of this cycle with strep. I haven’t been paying much attention to cm but now is looking more like ewcm.

Hannah - very odd. Your temps def make it look like you ovulated. Did you get a "close to positive OPK" before CD13? I know I've had cycles before where I ovulated but OPK never got very dark.
Well I didn't use a progesterone capsule last night and apparently as a result, AF came crashing down this morning. Have an ultrasound on Thursday morning to see if the cyst is gone & if I'm ok to start Clomid. If I'm cleared for Clomid we're going to try this cycle. :worry: I'm still on the fence about it but we'll see what happens.
Hannah just looked at your chart again - I wasn't looking at the temps before and just noticed that even with the jump, they are still really low (below 95 degrees). What is your normal post-O temp range? Maybe you haven't O'd yet. Hmm.
ABC, thanks for responding. Hopefully you’ll get good news at your appt on Thursday.
My pre-o temps are a lot lower than normal. Much lower. So that threw me for a loop too. They just kept going down. I had an almost there OPK when I first started testing, around cd 10/12, I think. But the rest were all barely visible. I kept testing just in case ovulation was delayed this cycle due to being odd clomid and having antibiotics too. So we’ll see. Maybe this chart will be that one chart that is unexplained and still ends in a bfp! Hahaha

Probably best to get the hang of it whilst having some time off...
Hannah hmmm I have no idea what's going on but I'd say just keep BD-ing often to make sure you're covered if O comes late!!!
Emshe - I have no advice either on that as I tried vaginal temping one cycle and hated it :) Pbn and others should have some tips though!
So you know you've been on the LE diet a looooooonnng time when you are eating the dinner you made for the family and your 5 year old asks, "Mommy why are you eating the same dinner as us?". I normally eat a different meal and I guess he's gotten used to it!!
ABC.... we are freaking twins separated by birth! I think I am CD1!!!! I woke up from a nap and had brown discharge. Not quite a normal pattern for me, but i didnt expect normal for first period after d&c. Lets hope it continues and gives me a fertile uterus for May!
Thanks for sending me AF thoughts and support through my day. I wrote a long post yesterday and then it wouldnt post. Dang it.
Geez sending AF thoughts to those waiting for it so you can start a new cycle... or some late BFPs.

Hannah I think I mentioned in April's thread I'm not convinced you've oed either judging by your temps. I'd stick to bding e4d (72 hour version) for now and continue with your opks. It is possible to get ewcm in the 2ww (although I never did) but chances are you're still gearing up to o. Not sure if antibiotics can affect your temps making them lower than usual [emoji848] but as previously discussed they can delay o [emoji4] Fx you have some answers within the next few days! It's incredibly frustrating when things go haywire but try and not dwell on it if you can help it. Try your best to accept that this cycle isn't straightforward but you are covered attempt wise if you have oed and you'll be covered by e4d for now if you haven't and don't get a fully pos opk. If/when you do get a pos opk you can add some attempts in then to achieve smep. Also if you can help it, try and put the 'last cycle trying' out of mind. Stress can do incredible things to our body, I believe there is some truth behind this, that the more stressed we are about ttc the more the body rejects the idea (maybe because of how wound up it feels)? I don't know of course and it could be a whole lot of hogwash but just in case.....
Emshe vaginal temping is definately the way to go. Have a few practice goes to get the idea and trust me, within a few days it'll be like you've always done it [emoji4] For the first couple practice goes, try inserting the thermometer alongside your index finger to get an idea of how far to insert. You only need to go as far as the middle knuckle. The head of the thermometer needs to be fully covered but you don't want it poking your cervix [emoji12] Once you remove it, wipe over with an alcohol swab/wipe and Bob's your uncle!
LOL I laughed so hard reading that twins thing that my DH looked at me like I was crazy!! I hope this is AF for you!!!Quote:

Sounds easy enough. So does the waking and getting up to go to the loo and stuff effect the vag temp?Quote:

Yes movement will affect your temp, especially getting up out of bed, but temping vaginally removes the inaccuracy of open mouth breathing. Maybe try and limit your fluids a couple hours before bed? Or if you consistently get up to wee during the night and around the same time and usually after a similar amount of sleep, do you temping before getting up to pee. So if your consistently getting about 4+ hours of sleep and wake at say 3am to pee, take your temp then, especially if your remainder sleep is erratic/unsettled. Bbt's are best taken after a solid sleep.
Bugger.
Don't feel I ever get 4 hours solid anymore, BOOOOOO
Even 3 hours emshe. At the end of thenday just do your best [emoji173] we should still see a shift regardless otherwise give the temping away if it's causing you more stress than comfort x
Ill see how I go. Thanks so much Pbn
Yay!!! I finally got my period just now 1 pm Wednesday 2/5- anyone else on cd1 with me? I feel excited to be onto our first real cycle ttc!
I literally cried out "yes!" When I wiped and saw blood and my ds1 heard and called out " did your wee make you happy mummy?" Lol!
I'm trying clomid this cycle and have been pretty good with diet and exercise since we returned from Easter holidays.
I'm crossing everything for us girls!!
Woohoo kittendreams!!! I'm excited for you! There's quite a few of you at the beginning of your cycles. Abc, kikurose and possibly hgmama that I can think of [emoji848]
Noemi I cannot wait to see your temp!! Must be getting close now [emoji3]
Abc- I agree. Let's skip that last outcome. I hope your ultrasound on Thursday goes well.Quote:

Thanks HGmama I'm so glad to have some cycle buddies! I find ttc so stressful I'm looking forward to following you all and cheering you girls on and hopefully I won't get too obsessed with my own cycle for once lol!
Good luck with your us on Thursday ABC fx you have the go ahead this cycle.
Fx noemi that you get the first bfp in may!
Hgmama yep Tapatalk is going bonkers at my end too! Keeps loading at an older date. I just try later and its current again...
I lost my hope, temp is down and i expect af tomorrow:sadflwr:
Have you tested Noemi? X
Yes bfn:(
Dont lose hope noemi! One temp drop doesn't mean much and like girlswaylondons asked did you test??!!
Tried to come on before and post but it wouldn't let me. Hgmama it came up with the you are not logged in message [emoji848] hope tapatalk issues a fix soon! Its getting annoying!!
Just seen you post about bfn.
You may only be 9dpo? We'll know more tomorrow because af is due if you are 11dpo right?
CD 1 here on 1 May. Seems like we have quite a few of us? I remember in high school my period lined up with my friends, apparently it's the same effect here ;)
Noemi, I'm so sorry. Did AF come?
Hannah, any word on further OPKs??
Pbn im 11dpo and af is expected tomorrow, one day i had hope other i lost it...it is really so hard:(
