It will be ok pbn, if it doesn't happen tonight you can start the e3d from tomorrow. Try relax, easier said than done I know but try keep this a chilled out cycle! I am so hoping this is your time x

I should hopefully hear something today. I hate waiting for them to get test results back, it seems to take forever.
Sorry Pbn, I feel like everything goes to hell with the kids when you're trying. It's like they know. Our timing was super messed up with dd1 and I remember crying and cursing my dh (haha) and I ended up pregnant with a sweet girl so fx this will be your month too!

Ah waiting for results is the pits. Hopefully they get back to you asap :)Quote:

Hopper, I'd keep taking OPKs just in case. If you did ovulate, I hope you caught the eggie! I don't know how long SHOW lasts....maybe 3-4 days? For me it can go on for several days but I also have trouble ovulating.
I get annoyed too when people get their PP. I have a friend who has a DS1 the same age as my DS2 and as soon as she found out she was pregnant, she insisted it was a girl. As in there was no way it could ever be a boy because she wanted a girl and that's what she felt it was. Well, it's a girl. Of course I got upset because not only did she get the girl she wanted but it was also an "oopsie" baby while here I am eating LE for 6 months and exercising my butt off on the off chance I could maybe, possibly, but probably not get a girl. *sigh* I really hope we both get our little pink bundles we've worked so hard for.
Quinn, when in doubt hump it out. I'm kidding...sorta. :rofl: I'm not exactly sure what is recommended for a blue sway but I know for my DS1 we DTD every day for a week(!) until O and with DS2 our attempts were O-4, O-2, and O-1. Since you DTD this morning, I'd wait until tomorrow to do it again.
PBN, don't lose heart yet. I've got everything crossed for you this cycle.
As for me, I'm on CD23 and had another blinking smiley on the advanced OPK. I'll take a reg. OPK this afternoon. Woke up sick as a dog this morning with my throat being so sore and swollen. :( Since I started swaying, whenever I've gotten sick around O, my body pulls the plug on ovulating. Ugh. I hope I can still ovulate despite being ill.
I hate when people talk about the perfect family too! We always have people telling us how horrible our lives will be with two teenage girls. It angers me, especially when women speak negatively about having girls. I always see people saying "good job" when someone has a boy, like they did something better. I know boys are valued more in society but it still bugs me!

Long post here:
Mt9178- good luck and FX
Bertie- welcome
2perfect- FX for you too.
Quinn31- dtd tonight
Pbn- I'm sorry it's been so rough for you, dtd before dh leaves today.
KS/Mamacass- I was sick with a chess cold up until 2 days before I O'd.
Hopper- I think you are O now, if you need to dtd do it now.
Hopper/Mamacass- I propped my hips with my previous pregnancies and this time around I learned my cervical opening opens towards the back so I propped again this time too.
The pink one is from the morning yesterday when I went back, the blue one was the one I took last night after I saw the one on the pink one. Took this morning with pink and still as faint.Quote:

Just wrote atomic because I'm at a loss on what to do. I got my digi positive on Monday, so we dtd that day at lunch. My temps haven't been accurate at all because i dropped my thermometer one day and had to get up to find it forever before temping one day, and then I got horrible sleep the other day. I don't think my temp has risen but I honestly can't be sure. Loads of EWCM today.... So is our attempt too far out if I ovulate at some point today?

Good luck Quinn.
I am currently on CD17 and still waiting for my +OPK. It does seem to finally be getting darker today, I will be testing again in an hour. We had attempts this morning and will tonight and tomorrow morning as well since DH will be leaving tomorrow morning and not coming back until Saturday or Sunday. So fingers crossed for a + test today!
Got 2 of my bloodtest results back yesterday from the RE and they were both in the normal range; Just waiting on one more test to finish. They did say if I didn't get a +OPK by Friday I would have to get bloodwork taken to see were my levels are.
Lines are getting there, hopefully they get darker today.

Especially those who have one of each ('oh they are SO different, because they are different genders' - no, all kids are different because they are freaking individuals!!!!) I actually think there are so many positives about having more than one child of the same gender. Rant over!
Probably a silly question but girls can you fill me in, what is SHOW during ovulation?? I'm guessing is it amt of CM etc?
Quinn your call, With the exception of DS3 we dtd pretty much every day.
Oh Pbn sorry that you have started out not-so-stress-free [emoji17] best thing to do is just regroup and start afresh tomorrow. Hugs xx
Good luck with getting the results mt9178
Ksmom you made me laugh with the when in doubt hump it out [emoji23][emoji23] sorry you are getting sick too!!
Signing- I can't believe you are making us wait to look at another test ha ha
Lauren if you do ovulate today it would still be an attempt in your fertile period at O-3 which I know isn't ideal but it is still entirely possible to get a bfp from? I guess if you feel comfortable doing it again that's your call, I know you have been trying for a while now xx
Tfahn good news that your results were ok [emoji106]
Sorry GD got you hopper, I can totally relate to the GD rearing its head, I have had a couple of comments recently that have made my blood boil! First was from an old man at the shopping centre - he was sweet enough but told me You poor thing you deserve a gold silver and bronze medal for coping with 3 boys then told me he did it the right way and had a boy then a girl. [emoji35] then a few days ago a guy I know (who happens to be 1 of 5 boys?!) said I don't know how you do it with 3 boys it would drive me crazy. [emoji35]

AFM I got my crosshairs this morning and apparently I am 5DPO today. I really hope so because I just couldn't dtd last night. Still feeling crappy and not sure I trust my temps feel like I'm already out this cycle but you never know. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11...060517d0f9.jpg

Quinn I'd BD again tonight and tomorrow night too. The more attempts the better for a boy sway!
Oh stop girls I hate the common gender associations! It really is just laziness and people always wanting something to say. A lot of PP mom's I know can be quite pitying of me having two of the same sex. Quite honestly I pity them for never knowing the beauty of having two of the same. My guys are the very best of friends they are close enough in age they will probably have the same buddies growing up like my DH and his brother had as they were similarly spaced. I remember Atomic saying, or rather writing, a great quote - boys should come in pairs! It's SO true.
Quinn I find in my area girls are very very much favoured over boys. I was asked why was I so happy on DS2 to be having another boy. I was asked by another person on DS1 no less was I not disappointed in having a son instead of a daughter. The girls section in shops around here is 3-4 times larger than the pitiful boys section. Maybe my GD makes me more sensitive though, I dunno! I hope all of us here don't have to feel like this for much longer! X
Mammacass SHOW means Soft, High, Open and Wet during O. I only started tracking my CP two cycles ago but sure both of those cycles were crazzzzzzzy so not a lot to go by so I'm fairly clueless here lol.
Hoping you catch that egg ksmom!! I have a good feeling about you this cycle, would love to be right!! X
Signing I am so excited for you to test again!!!! It is looking so so promising! FXed for a lovely solid test line on our next test x
Lauren are you doing e4d this cycle? I think an O-3 can result in a bfp but if you feel comfortable add in the extra attempt. I am doing e3d this cycle but I think it SHOULD work out as a single attempt in my fertile window. Hopefully lol. Fingers xed for you!!
You are not out this cycle, it has barely begun! No more defeatism my dear - you are getting your bfp in a few short days! The hip propping will not fail ;) lol. Joking aside hun I think you are in with a great shot - and sickness swaying pink too!! I am actually jealous of you right now!!! ;)Quote:

What would you do ladies?
Attachment 28406
Id be inclined to wait hopper. Depends how soon you tend to O after +ve opk x

My Ovulation Chart
Thanks poptart :) I honestly don't know any more. When I did opks to conceive our boys I am fairly sure I Oed within 24 hours of it +ive. This is my first cycle doing the regular opks and my last cycle was a mess with the +I've way early in my cycle and AF being like a week late so I am clueless as to what to expect. It would be absolutely awesome if I got a +ive tomorrow lol. It would take the hassle out of thinking about it!Quote:

Okay since you guys asked her are the two from yesterday morning and night and this morning. This morning still really faint...what do you think??

Positive PINK thoughts floating your way mama xQuote:

Mamacass, you're not out yet!! I've got everything crossed this is it!
Hopper, thank you! I so hope you're right. I want to be pregnant with a sticky bean this cycle so badly (and preferably a pink one!). I really hope you get your BFP cycle too especially with this being your last month TTC for awhile. :)
Signingmommy I see the lines but they're still faint. HCG takes roughly 48 hours to double so it's hard to see progression overnight with HPTs. I think tomorrow you'll have a much nicer looking line :) FX!
I took an OPK this afternoon...still negative but I definitely have an increase in CM along with having SHOW and lots of sharp pains around my left ovary. I'm trying not to stress about O since we're doing E4D. Tomorrow is our next day for BD so I would love to get my + OPK then!
I'm going to wait until tomorrow (e4d) to try again. Ill have either already ovulated, or it will be my one attempt. Who knows. I can't imagine not O until 4 days after a positive digi opk though. So strange.Quote:

Thank you ladies you rock [emoji120]🏻
I am even more determined to think positive now after my GP just told me she doesn't think with me being so sick that I would be able to conceive this cycle. Hope I can prove her wrong lol
Signing thank you for showing your pics, I agree line still there and should start darkening up tomorrow or next [emoji4]

Mamacass I was really sick like bronchitis up until 2 days before O so I think it's still good for you especially if I am getting BFP.Quote:

I'm 10dpo today. It's 4.30am here and been sleeping quite bad as DS1 has fever. I dreamt of having a bfp and I had to do a test 30min ago. I think I see something very very faint in the test but I'm not really sure is it just my line eye lol. The picture is really bad but still putting it here if you ladies can see anything. Probably you won't, that's ok :)Attachment 28413
2xblue I can see something there and quite easily! Congratulations!
They are pink here. I read these have real bad problem with evap. Fx I'm just worrying for nothing an will get more darker for sure BFP.Quote:
