July 2WW

I think we've switched to BD every 4 days now. My OPKs are all over the show. Getting darker, then lighter, then darker again. They never did this till we were TTC and I've been using them all year. So frustrating!
Excited to see some of you are entering the TWW already! How exciting :). Bring on the BFPs !!!!!

It would drive you insane covered, how attempt months just go screwy, especially when we spend months keeping track beforehand :hair:

Wow, that actually makes me nervous! But I haven't gotten a BFP in the last 3 months of trying, so I guess it's worth a shot, right?? I felt really confident about it a few days ago, but now that it's right around the corner I'm totally second guessing it. What do you guys think? This is the first cycle that I'm doing bd every 3 days. Should I jump in and add the additional attempt at +opk or should I wait until next month to add that (if I don't get a bfp this month)?? Next month is my last cycle ttc for a few months. We have 2 kids with May birthdays and we don't want to risk a 3rd, so we're taking Aug and Sept off.

Please, please please stick to every 3 days and do NOT add an extra attempt! You really haven't been TTC that long and extra attempts really sway blue. I implore you to try the 3 days method for a full 3 cycles before adding attempts. Though most likel you will ge pregnant before that point. Fx!

Two, you have been through so much and I second Taytum, you are one strong, amazing woman!

Taytum, most women do have a dominant ovary and in the majority the right ovary is dominant. However, it's totally normal to feel pain on bith sides as follicles swell and develop in both ovaries. Feeling ovarian activity, more often/more intense/on both or a different side from usual, etc, are all VERY common on Clomjd, in fact the the most frequent side effects. Headaches and hot flashes are the next most common.

Two, as an addendum to above, I wouldn't read too much into any ovarian sensations on Clomid, like thinking you might have teins. Definitely possible but not necessarily bc of any symptoms you get on Clomid. Fx both you & Taytum O 7 days after your last dose!

Thanks. I don't really think of myself that way, but thank you. I know not to read too much into it ;) It is just fun to speculate to pass the time lol. Thanks for the :fingers:

I would, no harm in chatting to someone. DS1 was very easy and natural to conceive. DS2 took 9 months and then I went to a FS was put on clomid and 4 cycles of that I made him. This time I just went straight into clomid and seeing my FS, I'm onto cycle 4 now. Hopefully it's lucky like last time.

Oh, if you only knew, lol. He is one of those kids that is smart and he KNOWS it lol. He'll even carry on a convo about how smart he is, lmbo. Right now he is saying he wants to be a pediatric neurosurgeon (he is familiar with what they do because my youngest sees one for an arachnoid cyst and shunt care). My youngest hasn't voiced any career interests yet, which doesn't surprise me one bit because he is still little, but I could see him doing so many things with his interests. Like I mentioned before, he loves puzzles and I gotta share a little story from today. This afternoon he wanted to do a maze soooo bad. He asked me to draw him one but I am NO good at drawing mazes. I tried and we all got a good laugh from it, though. So, all day today hubby and I had been doing yard work so I only ate once and had a TON of calories, fat... pretty much everything to get in to meet goals and it got late and the boys needed to get to bed so we decided to go to get something for dinner. Where do you go if you are looking for high calories and fat with minimal nutrition? McDonald's!! Lol. So, anyway, we get there and get our trays with our food and one of the liners was the one with the puzzles on it. It was so cute... He saw the maze and got SO excited, like it was Christmas or something, lol. He barely ate because he was to busy figuring out the maze and explaining it to me. Took him about 20 mins to eat 1 chicken nugget and 2 fries because he just kept doing the same maze over and over again. Finally, I had to tell him we'd take the paper home with us just so he'd eat, lol. He is something else lol.

Are any of you having issues posting to this thread? It keeps saying a moderator needs to approve my post... but only ever on this thread :( I can post short, quick replies but anything longer than a few sentences I have to get approved... I know it is the software, but it really needs to quit picking on me :rofl:

Ash- somehow I missed your post earlier. Good luck in the morning!! Let us know how it works out for you! :fx:
