Thanks for the welcome!
XXforhubby i'll pray for you :happy:
Great that your temp is still up!
I;m 3DPO as well but not hungry... The thing i have is some sort of uterus pain, like little needles. I can't remember from the other pregnancys if i had this. But i'm praying that it's a sticky little one! :fingers:
Maidentomother, i think that the OPK's detect even a small amount of hormones in your urine, so even if it's not so concentrated you should get a possitive.
You will end up with a headache when you don't drink in time...
About age...I'm nearly 35, so i think 37 is not old at all! :bigsmile:

XX, sounds promising, fx for you! Dutchgirl, I hope the uterine pain is a good sign for you, too.
Unfortunately, I know for sure that the colour of my urine is extremely important and very much does reflect the concentration. I've always found it very difficult to get dark/concentrated urine, but being on such high dose opiates makes it even more of a problem. I eventually gave up bc I was unable to get dark urine before my LH level started to drop and I was in pain from dehydration. Now it's late and I'm so tired bc I'm still not rehydrated and I have yet to BD, argh!
-
That must be so frustrating Maidentomother....
Hope your BD works out.

Why does my body have to get my hopes up? My bbt shot up to 98.42 today and has been steadily climbing since I ovulated. At least we know my body is functioning normally even though my FSH is skyhigh and my AMH is barely detectable.

Thank you Dutch. Xx, I'm hopeful for you!
Today got my Peaks on both CBFM and CBAD, and both cheap OPKs the darkest OPKs I've ever gotten, even darker than yesterday. Having some O pain already and planning on BDing shortly. DF is napping, we'll see how it goes...
Stupid CBFM which gave me nothing but endless Highs last cycle, this cycle I never got a High, it went straight to Peak after days of Low. I definitely prefer the CBAD! It least it appears to be accurate even though this is my first month using it.
The weird thing is my cervix has been open for 4 days in a row, but has yet to soften and only went high today. Normally my cervix is HSO for a couple days 3+ days before O and starts closing/firming/lowering before O.

FX for you Maiden! I hope you catch the egg!!

Attempt done, yay! I always feel this immense relief once I've attempted, I'm so anxious always trying to time it properly. The O pain went away before reaching full intensity so I'm hoping I don't O for at least 12 hours.
I used just a tiny bit of sperm friendly lube (YesBaby), and I quite liked it, very natural feeling and not at all sticky. DF apparently liked it too bc it was over very quickly, lol. I felt a lot of EWCM up at my cervix but otherwise I was not quite as wet as I prefer, so I think that worked out well. DF also released 2 days ago and 4 of our 5 prior attempts have been after very long abstains (like 2-4w!). I am hoping that having fresher/more sperm plus earlier O and the YesBaby will do the trick. A late September baby would be so lovely!

Xx, your words to tarasue were so lovely. Thank you! And Hooray for you in the 2ww!!! Even if it doesn't happen this time, things are improving, right?
As for maternal age, I can think of 2 ladies I know that had their first baby at 40 and another one who kept on having healthy babies into her 40s. I know personally in terms of my own energy levels I'd like to do it sooner rather than later, but kids keep you young. There was some study to prove that which I remember sending to my older mommy friends, lol. I've also heard your menopause start date relates to when you started menstruating, like if you started early you'll likely be done earlier.

I would love a September baby as well! I am 6-7 dpo, I think. This cycle has been very unpredictable as I miscarried only 2 weeks ago and seemed to o very soon after. Anyway my opk remains negative and I feel a heaviness deep in my pelvis- cramping a bit too. I am bloated too. Just maybe I caught the egg and am feeling some implantation symptoms? So so hopeful.
