My bbs ache, especially the right, and I am having stabbing type pains, they don't hurt to touch just ache inside if that makes sense - I can't remember what it was like when I was pregnant before. Also got lots of CM...not sure if these are good signs but I hope so. Fingers crossed for us Trueblue...and everyone else. Did another OPK as a test this evening, it was negative - I'm 9DPO (or 10 depending on when you go from in terms of when the OPK goes positive at O). Arghhh, this 2ww really is no fun, I veer between convinced I pregnant to being sure AF is on the way!
OMFG!! OMFG!!! O M F G :omg:
I was very bold - I poas :oops:
BFP BFP!!
Faint but there without to much squinting!
Help!!!

YAY YAY YAY I Was watching and loving that chart
I KNEW IT!!!!! :pregnant:
Happy & Healthy 9 Months!!!!
This is your moment True, take it all in!!!!!!!!
ThankYou Butterfly :) I am bursting to the brim with excitement I need to scream !!
Good Luck :luck: to all our fellow 2ww'ers I want to take you all with me ~
:cheerteam:
Huge congratulations True Blue!!!
MsBlakely you might just be ovulating a little later this cycle. I've been tracking my cycles for months and I had been ovulating on CD15 every month. Then I started TTC last month and I didn't ovulate until CD19. No idea why. This month I ovulated on CD15 again.
ASAP Anchor :)
The line is clearer IRL and definitely pink.
Test is FRER.
What do you think?
When should I test again - FMU?
YAY!!! True Blue Im soo excited for you!!
Congratulations! That is so exciting!
I cant see my bfp great in my pics but IRL it really is good, pink just faint :)
Congrats true blue! So happy for you :-) happy and healthy everything to you!
CONGRATS!!!!
Yah, potentially just a late O.. not holding out hope for this month. We BD way too early and probably missed it due to DH travelling for work over the last two days. We're going to try BD tonight after a hurry up FR but he's a little tired from the past week of crazy FR that I'm not holding my breath it'll actually go down ;)
True, I can see it just fine, and it's PINK so that means faint positive no doubt!
Congrats again!!! :D
Congrats True Blue. I can sure see it fine so well done and you're definitely preggo!
Yay!! Yay!! Yippeeee!! So excited for you Trueblue! :cheerteam: x
Fab news :)
Thanks guys :)
I'm not very confident in fact I'm terrified. This mornings test was the same, very faint - maybe very slightly fainter :tissue:
Am I fooling myself?
Well I'm 11 DPO...and BNF.... again... Feeling queasy all afternoon.
Just frustrated.... my temps are still looking ok. But this is the first time charting.
I've attached my chart to my signature...what does everyone think is there still hope.
FF said that i O on day 15... but i didn't get positive OPK's till afterwards. If id did O later then i still should have some time... Before charting I would have said i O on day 17 or 18 which would only make we 8-9DPO??
If not i've arranged a consult with Dr. Potter for next week.
I think I'm officially leaving here now, on day 14 my test line was as dark as the control, AF hasn't come, my milk is still there but my supply has definitely dropped (my baby is grumpy but eating well to make up for it) and I'm dizzy and queasy. Yay for a fourth baby! This is definitely the last, I have a fear of twins but know it's unlikely.
GL to everyone still waiting to test.
Congrats mum to three!
True blue I see it, post a new pic tomorrow! I bet it darkens!
Mum to three girls I'm delighted to see you go ;)
Congratulations :bluecheer:
I hope I can follow you !
Thanks for the reassurance guys :) I will test tomorrow night at the same time I tested last night - there should be some change then :nails:
Letiha your chart looks good :agree: those temps are still nice and high. GL for your BFP !!
So psyched for those of you with bfps. I am out this month, alas. I really thought it was it, but I'll cross my fingers for next month and try charting temps this time. Not sure what to do differently--it didn't seem like I went overboard with anything. Good luck to the rest of you!
I am out this month too. The spotting I had at 8 DPO continued off and on and got red last night. Had a lot of cramping and fatigue yesterday (wanted to curl up in a ball). I was really feeling preggers! I never POAS because I'm only 10 DPO today. Why would my period have started 5 days early? It's never early :-(
Could it be because of my 1st month doing my boy sway? I was taking EPO from AF-O. Any ideas would be appreciated - thanks!
Fingers crossed for you True blue!
This has been such a lame month.. so frustrated. I have no idea how many DPO I am as I don't even know if I ovulated!! I don't know why I wouldn't have - never in my life have I not. And I had all the cramping etc. but just a few days later than normal. Anyways, today I'm feeling totally like I'm getting my period but I'm on CD19 so that's doubtful. I just have a super heavy feeling between my legs.. seriously, just like when you're giving birth. Oh man.. my body is so messed up. Def not even planning on POAS as I'm 100% sure I'm out as everyone on here thinks my temp chart shows no O
I understand completely msblakely. Happy 2013 hey?! More of the same cr*p from last year ie more bfns! An anoulatory cycle for me too, haven't a clue when to expect af. Hopefully not too soon as I'm on cd24 and trying to get hold of my clomid for next month. I usually have long cycles so am hoping to get af towards the end of next week. It would tie in better with dh's shifts better too for our attempt. I feel SO down about it all at the moment and think I've exhausted my friends' patience irl talking about it for the last year. :(

Dreamofpink - did it take you long to get pregnant with both your boys? I got pregnant first cycle with both of mine so I was shocked that it's cycle number 2 and I'm expecting a negative again! I just assumed that if you've had an easy time twice.. it's going to be easy the third time!
We haven't told anyone we are ttc, and actually tell everyone we only want 2 kids :) That was true for a time.. but now that I got a BFN last cycle the idea of a 3rd won't leave my head, boy or girl! I worried the diet has messed with me as I'm soooo so underweight now and can't gain it back! I'm assuming I could quite easily if I started eating lots of protein, fatty foods etc. but I want to gain it the LE way. I guess I'm not shocked... my BMI has got to be in the 15's now...why would I O! Rehhhhh (sorry, thats my I'm annoyed trying to not care sound lol)
sorry for my rant - right there with you on the no one to talk about it with!
Yep, both boys conceived on 2nd month of trying. Sooo easy then!! I think the last 18 months has really messed me up although my cycles have always been long-ish. I think this cycle is stress-related and I was glad to not have to decide whether to wait for the clomid or not. Looking forward to using it but just find it hard to believe that I'll ever see a bfp again! Living vicariously through the ladies who I started out with in the autumn who are now in the due date threads. You really need to speak to AS about your weight. It's not just getting pg that's at stake, you have to be able to maintain a pregnancy too. It's not a criticism, I'm worried for you and your health. X x

Hon you definitely need to gain some back, atomic doesn't recommend anyone go under 18BMI for girl sway (or for TTC at all) because you will risk stopping o. That's def what's going on.
FYI I have 2 boys, and conceived both first go, one on the pill actually (happy surprise but NOT planned) and the other first month off the pill. I've been off the pill 8 months now and charting for 6. So far I've o'd every month I've charted but have issues with a short luteal phase which extended last month using soy.
I've had two chemical's in the 6 months of charting (where you get a + preg test then still get af, and test goes negative, so you lost the embryo before it implanted enough to stick).
Maybe your sway is a touch aggressive if your BMI went so low? I had to ease up a bit too, and dropped things like peppermint tea, cran (I came over from IG), eased off the disprin and acijel just using them sparingly prior to o.
I paid for a plan last month and its helped SO much. A few things I was mucking up was acijel between attempts! Apparently for those who use it, you only do prior to first attempt. NOT after, or it kills everything! Oops.
I was def overdoing it.
FYI all girl swayers atomic just got new stats on acidophilus and they aren't great. She has recommended I drop them ASAP. I bet I'm pg and will stress for the next 20 weeks that the acidophilus ruined my perfect girl sway.
I know what you mean, I couldn't help but feel last month that if I conceived straight up like last times, I'd be 8 months pregnant now.
I want clomid too.
Terrified the acidophilus ruined my sways and for once I actually want a BFN this month so I can drop it! That's crazy.
Oh I know, I'm trying to gain some back. However, I conceived both boys with a 16 BMI so i've always been very much underweight even though I eat a lot. I really feel like I O'd this month.. I'd be so shocked if I did because of the EWCM, CP and cramping.. ah, I don't know what to think! All I know is that next month we are very much easing up. I'm keeping protein low, no snacking/breakfast but I'm not going to watch cals as closely. We wanted to be pregnant by March due to our boys ages and that's getting less and less likely as the sway continues so this was our last month with a uber strong sway. Grrrrrrrr
In that case, I agree entirely with your reasoning. If you have a very high metabolism and have always been underweight (jealous!!) then there's not much you can do, so that's a good plan.
Staying off the multivitamins etc will help, did you take those before? I know I was loaded with them for my boys. My BMI was always on the underweight side of Normal, so 20ish at the time. I snacked all the time (healthy stuff) and ate breakfast always (oats, which are apparently terrible for TTC girl), ate meat, when I had a splurge day diet wise it was always high fat and salt never high sugar. We did it every 2nd-3rd day, and basically I did everything boy.
Am now 18bmi and no breakfast, no snacks, no meat (well, in the 2ww for December and jan I ate meat about 3 times, but other than that not at all for 8 months), we tried abstain and fr, this month we kind of combined and did abstain until I thought I was about to o, then switched to fr. Then didn't o for like 5 days! Annoying.
If I went on my signals I would have o'd on cd 15, but then had another bunch of cramps on cd 19 after the +opk and my temps confirm that must have been o.
In my 8 months TTC this time I've never known a chart to be wrong. Temps show things we can't measure accurately elsewhere. Because you can gear up to o then not actually release the egg so you have all the signs but don't get +opk or higher temps to confirm.
You may just o really late so keep opk-ing.
With my first I just ate whatever, lots of meat for sure and junk. I didn't really work out much, but I snacked 24/7 (always have) and ate breakfast all the time. We did abstain for about a week and then 5-6 attempts in the fertile window with both my boys. My second, I was working out for 20mins a day running and eating healthy, but it included meat and avocado and lots of "healthy" foods. I feel like he could have been a girl considering I was losing weight and had just stopped BF'ing but I definitely snacked all the time so maybe my blood sugar has a big part to play. He was an abstain with about 5-6 attempts as well
This time we did FR with 3 attempts, only 2 even remotely in the fertile window though with FR in between. I've used OPK's today and they are negative, even more so than yesterday so not sure that what means. My temps definitely dropped a little a few days ago and then have been on the rise ever since but aren't on a different level than my previous temps.. just at the high end (if that makes any sense). I guess my temps will continue to tell me more but I can say I'm cramping like mad today and have CM (more so than ever this week) but not EW, just regular. SO who knows!!!
Just to clarify should i count DPO from when fertility friend said I O'd or from +opk which were the 2 days after this.
Af has always gnome 14 days from the +opk
+opk can't happen after o, and o is usually 12-48hrs after the first +opk. I would ignore ff in this case and count from when the opk and cramping told you o happened. I can't see your chart on my phone but your temps could have been mucked up if you temp orally, sleep with mouth open, were sick, or got up to settle a child. If you had a rise at some stage after the +opk, you o'd the night/day before the rise.
Hope that makes sense!
