Hope it was a true positive for you verena! 🤞
Have you tested again this morning girl dreaming?
Emshe, I reckon you and I will be testing at a similar time, what dpo are you?
Thanks abc, my temp has dropped right down today though so hope that's not a bad sign..

Morning ladies, I did a quick test this am but only had internet cheapies and it doesn't show very well in photo. I THINK it's slightly darker but only slightly. I'm cramping a fair bit feel like AF is coming so I'm a bit anxious about that. On wiping I have a fair amount of CM fairly clear with a streak of brown. I'm feeling 'full' on my abdo and like muscle strain too.
I really want to test on a proper one but I'm stuck at work until 20.30 tonight, it's Sunday and it's snowed so I might be stuck here too. I will have to wait, annoyingly!! I am feeling a bit sick but wonder if that's in my head!
Cannot wait to see tests from mummy and Emshe!
Mummy fx that's an implantation dip!!!
Pbn have you heard from mommy2apples? She hasn't been on in a while and that's not like her :(
I'll let her know your asking after her BBB [emoji4]
Girldreaming cant wait to see another test! Hope you're able to get your hands on some soon!
Mummy2boys looks like you often experience a dip between 5 and 8dpo but hopefully this is implantation related. I'm still convinced your pregnant but will nervously await your next few days temps. What dpo will you test?

Aww ok. Glad she is fine!
Mummy like others said I also hope that's an implantation dip!!! Def possible!
Verena FX that O is coming soon!!
Just normal dip tests... My afternoon test is positive as well [emoji123] So I really hope we didn't attempt too early... I know it will most likely be an o-3 attempt and have not so good odds of conception, but at the moment I don't think I'm ready to attempt again tomorrow. But that can change quickly [emoji6]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...25947f9641.jpg

Bit worried I'm still cramping a bit and I've just had a bowel movement(tmi sorry) and bright red mucous when wiping, defo from vagina not back passage. Really hope it's all ok. I'm quite excited about the possibility of being pregnant now.
Girldreaming when is af officially due? I think once you get past that day you can breathe a bit easier. The cramps and even spotting in your cm sounds like your body preparing for the pregnancy [emoji173] Bring on those test pics!!! How long until you can get some now? Not that I'm impatiently waiting or anything *as I'm drumming my fingers on the table* [emoji23]

Beautiful positive opk [emoji7] So a 3-o attempt will still be good odds! Not fantastic but still good and I've seen quite a few conceptions with that timing [emoji3] fx for a temp spike morning of cd15!!!!!

About the tww... do we go easier on coffee & exercise? Haven’t had any alcohol but have kept up everything else.
I feel a bit guilty when I’m out exercising everyday. Have opted for flat walks the last 2 mornings instead of the hills.
& when I have a long black as breakfast [emoji51]
What’s everyone else do?

I do go easier on coffee and exercise and don't drink alcohol at all. I found some studies saying getting pregnant will be more difficult if a certain daily amount of coffein is exceeded, I think it was 200 or 300 mg. So I try to stay under 200 mg in the tww and therefor I mix my coffee powder with decaf coffee powder and drink my normal 3 or 4 cups.
With exercise I do it like you did, I decrease intensity. Normally I walk on a treadmill at 5 km/h and in the tww, especially around possible implantation, I reduce to 4.5 km/h. Don't know if this has any effect but it makes me feel less guilty [emoji6]
But I know many others just do what they always do [emoji4]

Pbn3 well I managed to get home through the snow and I tested again on a cheapie again too light to photograph! I can get a test tomorrow hopefully but it won't be morning urine. My period is actually due Thursday/Friday roughly! I just don't remember being so crampy with my previous pregnancy. Hopefully it is all good signs!
Verena those opk's are awesome! Fxfor you x
Verena - Maybe you've already said this but from past cycles do you know typically how many days after +OPK you see a temp rise? If you don't see the rise tomorrow morning would you throw in an attempt tomorrow night? The thing is if you do O tomorrow, a PM attempt tomorrow evening would likely be way too late so you'd have to hope for sperm left from the first attempt to catch the egg, but if for some reason you don't O tomorrow, that attempt from a few days really would end up being too early, so getting an attempt in tomorrow night would give you another shot if you O the day after. I think 72 hours between attempts is pretty good - from what I've read most sperm don't live longer than that anyways.
emshe - FX your chart looks good so far!
Girl Dreaming hope you get stronger lines tomorrow!
Thanks ABC, hope you’re going ok?!
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/35220b
emshe - yea I'm doing OK thank you :) Feel like each day gets a tiny bit easier. Took my last FRER today though, thinking it would be negative or almost negative and yet the test line was still as dark as the control :( So that freaked me out. Talked to Pbn about it and I think I'm going to call my doctor tomorrow and just ask about it and see if they want to run blood work to make sure my hcg keeps going down. I also have my first RE appt tomorrow, so I'll ask her about it. I'm really really nervous though about the appt - not sure why. I guess bc I think they're gong to find something really wrong.
For now, wine is my good friend again :) I've started back on LE PCOS - which I hate but in some ways it feels nice to be eating healthier again. After this last bfp my diet went so downhill - started eating so much and not healthy foods. Of course that's one of several things I've blamed myself for in thinking I somehow caused the m/c. Even though that's likely not it. The blame I've put on myself this time has made recovering a lot harder.
But I don't know what our future holds at this point. Just trying to survive right now, and it's helping to follow all of you ladies again on your ttc journeys. :) :)
Verena I second what Abc suggests about bding again cd14. But if you're happy with just one attempt for a couple cycles then maybe next cycle hold off until pos opk for your first attempt regardless of docs recommendation to bd. You must be really annoyed with him! Anyway at least now you know you do in fact get a pos opk and now the wait to see how soon after pos opk you o. If this cycle does result in a bfn then you'll be able to go into next cycle with confidence in your body [emoji109]

That’s confusing ABC, blood test is a good idea. You shouldn’t blame yourself, and believe me I know it’s easier said than done, I questioned everything I did. It sucks, it’s unfair, & it’s brutal. I really am so sorry you’re going through it.
Hey! Wine is awesome for your sway, win win [emoji12] little steps will ease you back into it. Throwing myself into the exercise tended to help with my mindset.
I’m glad each day is getting easier, and I really hope your appointment goes well.
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/35220b
Ok ladies another question from me...
Do you keep BDing after you’re pretty sure you ovulated?
In other words should we BD again tonight?
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/35220b
Emshe I think its up to you... if you continue bding then it allows your body to become more receptive to the sperm invaders (lol) so when you do have your one attempt you may have a better chance of your body playing a less intense game of seek and destroy.... I always recommend regular bding after o for this reason...

That was where my train of thought was going too! Will see how he feels?!
Thanks pbn
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/35220b
Thank you for your thoughts ABC and pbn! I normally o the day after pos opk, I guess 36 hours has been pretty true for me. But my temp jumped really up this morning??? So I really don't know what's going on this month. Maybe femara somehow shortened those 36 hours?
The problem with bd'ing is that dh still has a pretty bad men flue. I don't think it will work out this evening. Actually I'm lucky that my doc made us bd on friday because afterwards dh was too sick to bd.

ABC I'm glad you're feeling a bit better. The line on the test would have freaked me out as well. I hope it will resolve itself quickly. And I'm sure they won't find something really bad at your appointment because you have too healthy DS. But I would probably be just the same... I'm thinking of you and keeping everything crossed for both the beta and your appointment!
Girl dreaming fingers crossed you see something on the "good" test! I think you can keep the first morning urine in the fridge and use it later ([emoji40][emoji6]).

That is quite a jump Verena! Be interesting to see next couple days temps [emoji848] and yes lucky you did bd when you did with dh being to sick to after! As atomic always says better an early attempt than one that too late... if you have oed then its fantastic timing [emoji12]

I had quite a restless night though. I didn't properly fall asleep until 1 am and took the temp at 5 am, which is early for me. So maybe the temp is so high because I only slept 4 hours? I fell asleep again after taking the temp and at my normal temping time at 6:30 am it was even 0.3 degree higher. If tomorrow's temp is high as well would you say I ovulated yesterday (CD13) then?
