Yay! Sparkles. Looks like a line to me too!
Quick question..
When does FF pin Point ovulation based on BBT. I think I'm on DPO 6 but it doesn't show when I ovulated yet.
My chart is all over the place with temps this month...

Negative test on an IC with FMU. AF should start in the next day or two.

Robin I think Fertility Friend didn't give you cross hairs for ovulation because you don't have enough days of data before your ovulation to establish a coverline temp. You could change the ovulation detection method to see if that helps or maybe check the box to disregard the high temp on the 4th since that will effect detecting ovulation. Do you take your temps orally? Temping that way is not the most accurate and could be the reason for your differing temps pre O.
Sorry XXforhubby
IC an internet cheapie? I don't count you out yet because wasn't it ds3 where you didn't even get a positive test until like 16 DPO?
I don't know hubby I'm just going to keep my fingers crossed that AF stays away from you...
Yes I do orally.Quote:

Congratulations to those with bfp and sorry to those that af arrived!
Xxforhubby I agree with burakoam, your not out yet, am so keeping everything thing crossed for you, so hope this is your month, x o
I tempted vaginally, on xxforhubby recommendation and I got much more consistent temperatures that way! XQuote:

Temping vaginally will give you the most accurate results. Your temp should be taken after at least a 3 hour stretch of sleeping and before leaving bed about the same time everyday to get good results. I was weirded out at first about temping vaginally but really it is do big deal; I have been doing it close to 2 years now.Quote:

Thank you ladies! I know I've had a slow cooker before with my DS2 (BFP at 21 DPO), but I am not hopeful this time around.
I'm going to try Clomid 100mg from days 2-6 this next cycle. This will probably be my last cycle, since I'm not sure if my DH will make an appointment for a vasectomy or not.
I think we are both conflicted. I've lost all my baby weight from DS3, and I miss going to the gym, lifting weights, and doing my beachbody workouts. I think of being able to go back to work soon, do some things to our new house we would like to do, and take some pretty awesome vacations starting next summer.
But then there is this nagging feeling I have...my DH feels it too. He had a dream a few nights ago- he heard a pitter patter of feet that didn't sound familiar in the middle of the night that stopped at our bedroom door. It was cracked, and he could see a child standing, looking in. He said, "Come on in", and he patted the bed. The child didn't come. He got up, and a little girl with brown, curly hair like mine was standing there in a night gown. She asked, "Are you sure"? My DH picked her up and brought her to bed with us. He said it felt so real, but he isn't sure.
I think I'll give it another go, but I'm not sure after that. If my DH doesn't get a vasectomy in December, I don't think he will be able to until June with his work schedule. I'm also starting to think and believe that it probably won't happen for us. I can be happy with the way things are. My DS3 is definitely "my baby" and is super snuggly. It's a mixed bag of emotions thinking I'm actually done, but I'm mostly ok. I'm definitely becoming more and more ok with it. I wasn't even sad upon getting a BFN, but I wasn't happy or relieved either. Just, sigh...

I know exactly what you mean, xxforhubby! DH and I have both decided that if I have another miscarriage, we are done trying and he'll get a vasectomy. It is so emotionally difficult for both of us when I have a miscarriage. As much as I want another baby, I just can't go on having miscarriages. DH feels the same way. He told me the other night that he wishes he could see into the future to know if it's worth it to keep trying.
At this point, I'm not really even swaying anymore. I'm just trying to get and then stay pregnant. Everything I'm doing is for health reasons, not necessarily to get a DD. We think about the future too and how in 8-10 years all of our kids will be moved out if we stop ttc now. It's definitely appealing. We'd like to spend some time being a couple, just the two of us. It is so difficult to decide whether to keep ttc or not. I also picture the face of my DD and that is the only thing that has kept me trying this long.
I hope you'll both be at peace with whatever you decide to do. :hug2:
Thank you so much! It is so hard to know what to do, isn't it? I think what keeps me going is down to 3 things: 1. I don't want to regret not having tried. 2. If we had 3 girls, we would try EVERYTHING for a boy for me. 3. Everything I've done for the past 8mo has led me here. The diet (mainly no snacking, and no red meat at this point) and the cardio (I'm beginning to not like it anymore).Quote:

My Ovulation Chart
Hi everyone! I'm still around...we are doing attempts every 4 days this month, and other than that, not much of a sway. I'm just doing a mostly vegetarian diet, which has completely gone out the window the last couple of days because of Thanksgiving (it's today here in Canada). We had our first attempt at CD13, and we'll have our second attempt on CD17. I think I probably ovulated yesterday. I'm very thin now, and used to going for long periods without eating, so those things may help. I'm also coming off a cycle with an early miscarriage, which I understand may sway pink.
I've been spending lots of time with my one year old niece, who has recently moved in down the street, and it's been very healing for me to have an adorable little girl in my life. When I had my miscarriage recently, I discovered that I didn't really care about the sex of the baby as much as I previously thought. I'm trusting that things will work out as they should, and I feel much more at peace about everything.
Fingers crossed for you, XX and everyone waiting! :happy:
Moma and XX, you are both so awesome. I am glad you are both trying at least a few more months because I enjoy following your journeys and I am hoping we could all be in the same DD group as I really trust and respect you both.
XX I am going to do 100mg of clomid next cycle too (if no BFP this cycle).
Serenity, so glad you are still here. Happy thanksgiving! I would love if my nieces lived so close. I am glad you have her to help cheer you up.
Hi serenity.Quote:

I ate turkey today and yesterday due to thanksgiving and it was wonderful!
I've gone vegetarian for past 3 months.
I just want to be pregnant now as well. Obviously love a girl.. but trust in God's decision for our family!

OPK question- does anyone keep testing with OPK during the 2WW after you know you ovulated? What do they look like? Wondering if you always get a light second line anytime of the cycle.
Still no +OPK, but did have second lighter purple line for 6 days, then almost no second line for 2 days but now the purple line is back (not positive, just darker than the two super light days) and I am cramping like crazy. I am super confused if I ovulated early (and pains are cysts) or if I still haven't ovulated (and pains are O coming). Impossible to count dpo when you don't know O day. :-( Not even sure if I am in the 2WW or not. Today is cd26. This cycle really sucked.
Congrats, Bre and Mrs Sparkles! See you in the DD group then!! ; ) Hope lots more ladies will be joining. I had a darker line this morning. I hope this is it for me!

FX for you serenity! It seems like you have a lot going for your sway still. :)
GirlieCat, it could be that you geared up to O and then didn't for some reason. However, I believe you can have faint lines after ovulation. I think Pbn and xxforhubby know more about that than I do. Hopefully they'll chime in.
I called my RE's office today and they said to do the same thing as last cycle. They called in another prescription for progesterone. Hopefully I'll ovulate early again this cycle. I'm keeping up the exercise and am back with the diet (I totally fell off the wagon the last 3 weeks, lmao!). I need to diet anyway to lose weight. My RE said any weight loss will only help me, so I'm sticking with everything. I'm planning on doing SMEP again and also will be adding guaifenesin (starting cd8 until 3dpo), female O, and laying flat for at least 30 mins after dtd per atomic's suggestions. I'm ready to just be pregnant regardless of gender. I'm crossing everything that this is an awesome cycle for everyone!! :cheerteam:
Xxforhubby fx still!!
Welcome back serenity!
Girliecat you can still get lines on opks on and off during the 2ww. I used to see an increasing to pretty dark (but not pos) line in lead up to af. This is also why using an opk as a hpt isn't accurate (for any poas addicts like me 😂 that are thinking of doing this) You will get a pos hpt before a pos opk if pregnant :)
I'd keep testing in case you haven't oed. Is it o cramps you're experiencing?

Oh my gosh Inforthree! That is so exciting. Can we officially celebrate it as a BFP now?
Thanks moma and Pbn3. I am really leaning towards that I might have O'd about 10 days ago but I am going to just keep testing with OPKs in case and still doing e3-4d. I am so tired of DTD though.
Moma, I was going to do progesterone this cycle too but didn't get to without knowing O. If it is not my month, I am doing clomid and progesterone next time. I think your plan for next cycle sounds great. FX.
I am so frustrated!
Have been having pink spotting for last few days, this morning (12dpo) had some bleeding so I thought, OK this is AF is here, cd1 again for me!
However since then, it's returned to tiny amount of brown spotting again.
My period was super light last month so I feel like my body is going crazy now! Tested and got a bfn also (just in case) I definitely did ovulate this month, so seem to just have a super thin lining.
Got an appointment through for the fertility clinic for 8th Nov, so will have one full cycle before then to given it my all.
Does anybody have any recommendations on how to thicken womb lining?
Jennypenny sorry to hear you are having issues :( I would start a new thread under ttc forum as you will get a response from atomic and perhaps others that have had similar issue? All the best and hope you get a bfp before your appt! Glad you have it just in case though.

Jennypenny, vitamin b6 thickens lining. I think iron does too.
Hi Jennypenny,
I've heard some women have used Royal Jelly:*A study done in Japan and published in 2007 shows thatRoyal Jelly has the propensity to mimic human estrogen, which may help those that suffer from low estrogen levels. Royal Jelly consumption is for women with weak uterine muscles or thin uterine lining.

Thanks for the advice ladies!
I will look into all of the suggestions.
Will also start a thread to see if Atomic has any suggestions also xxx
I take the holiday weekend off of the Internet and I miss everything!
Congrats bre, Mrs Sparkles and inforthree! Who is still waiting to test?
I am CD7 and we've decided to go ahead and try this cycle too, and cancel our trip if I do get pregnant. I am back at pre-pregnancy weight now, although I could still use to lose a lot.
I'm CD6 so plenty of time ahead. My temps are getting higher so I'm wondering if I'll O early this month? Good luck all.

My sister just told me that she's attempting this month. Tomorrow to be exact (she's doing IUI). My other sister told me yesterday that she's starting injectables this Friday. It might seem weird but that puts so much more pressure on me. Ugh. TTC is so stressful!! :(

OMG Ladies- I am still testing with OPKs since I never got a positive and then today at 6:00pm I got a very dark LH test. Pbn3, you said something the other day about ladies using OPKs instead of HCG test because you often get positives OPK when you are pregnant so for fun I used the same 6pm urine sample with a cheap pregnancy test just to see and got two lines (twice).
At first I said, oh well it is really light (thinking OPK), then freaked out when my brain switched on that any line is positive. I am shaking I am so scared, nervous, excited.
Can an LH serge give you a false HCG test?
OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!!!! Calm down.....
Omg GirlieCat!!!! That's a bfp!!!! Congratulations!!! :)
Omg!!!! EeekkQuote:

Oh my gosh, you really think so? The LH isn't giving me a false positive on the HCG? I mean this was 6pm urine too and a cheapy pregnancy test. Definitely using the more expensive Preg test tomorrow with FMU.
Pbn3- I want to jump through the internet and kiss you right now. If you had not said that comment about positive OPKs and HCG I would have never tested the HCG for fun.
My heart is racing a million miles a minute. I am trying to calm down in case it is a false positive. And I also know if it is true that so many ladies have had chemicals and early MC that this is just too early to get this excited, but this is my first positive pregnancy test my whole life (all 35 years of it) so it kinda took me off guard.
Huge congrats! That's most definitely a BFP, Girliecat!
