Wow Momamia, I am impressed by your DH. I am sure my late DH had super sperm too. I hope the cramping means good things.
Pbn3, how many Highs do you usually get before your Peak?
tfahn is testing much sooner than I, I'm trying to hold until next Tuesday! Good luck tomorrow!

Varies from 2-5 days maiden :) however it was looking almost positive on test stick this morning so hoping for only one more flashing smiley b4 solid or even better a solid in morning hahahaha!! We have to go away Friday and there will be no bd that day so at a guess I'll get a solid that morning 😩

Pbn3, maybe you should BD on Thursday night just in case, if you haven't gotten a Peak by then? What inconvenient timing!
Yeah I know. Because I have my mum visiting all this week until friday (when we head off o/n too) I'm just trying to sneak in bd's when I can. Was going to try extra hard at pos opk.... I had planned on e3d but am going to take what I can get and hope for the best :) if tomorrows reading is still high I'll probably leave a bd go on purpose and focus on making sure Thursday happens...

I so wanted to test this morning but I am only 8 DPO so I resisted. Wish I had a bit higher of a temp rise but maybe tomorrow morning will be better.
I think you're wise to wait until tomorrow! And honestly even 9dpo is really early. Most women don't get a positive before 10dpo.
I got another bfn today.

Sorry momamia. I honestly think I see something in the first one but not the second :/

I can see a hint of something in the first one too but it is from yesterday and did not show up at all within the 2 mins. So, it's probably just residual trigger shot, if it's anything. :/

Sorry momamia. Praying for the rest testing. Still keeping fx for all of you. Maybe you will get a late BFP momamia. Prayers for everyone.
I just got home from my appointment with my RE. He is going to do the hsg and gave me another Rx for a higher dose of clomid. He also said he wants to do the trigger shot again. I guess I'll give it one more shot, assuming my tubes are actually open. I have to call and schedule the hsg on cd1. FX I get a late bfp and don't have to deal with this anymore!! :)

Congratulations on all the bfp' s ladies, fingers crossed for everyone attempting or waiting!
Sorry momamia4, still have my fingers crossed for you, your not out until af arrives, tcc is so frustrating, there is no way am pregnant this month but I still find myself symptom spotting and wondering am I? How mad is that
Big temp drop today and a negative OPK. Is the temp drop a normal thing for Clomid? I've never had a drop like that before ovulation.

Lauren, I often have a temp drop like that before O. Not necessarily the day before, but a few days before. This cycle I dropped to 96.7 three days ago but still haven't O'd despite being on CD17!
Lauren, I haven't found anything consistent with my clomid cycles. They've all been different.

11dpo bfn this cycle was juat awful, onto next cycle, I was actually looking over my old post on fourms I used to be on since ttc my first back in 2006, weeks after a miscarriage I actually did spot a lot between cycle, but this time just seem more. Maybe from chemical and birth control pills.
I honestly have a good feeling about next cycle, my due date will be
November 17th! Pretty cool due date right before the holiday.
Sorry for the bfn momamia
I always drop two days before ovulation
Should I be testing OPK more than once a day? I saw in another forum that people do multiple times a day and I've never done more than once. I always figured I would get a positive still and that you have 24 hrs to be within the surge. Is that wrong?

Yes I do! Best time is around 1-2pm then maybe try again around 7-8?Quote:

LH surges can be really short, sometimes just a few hours, so if you aren't testing at exactly the right time then you could potentially miss it. My surge was really brief this cycle and I did kinda miss it, in that I never got a positive OPK. I only had a few OPKs left so I couldn't test as often as I liked. I'd recommend testing 3x a day when you get close to when you expect to surge or your OPKs look close to turning positive, whichever occurs first. So at the latest CD12 for you, once a day in the early to mid afternoon should be okay up until then unless your OPKs look close to positive.
Okay. I'll snap a pic
Of both of today's shortly and see what ya think. I don't want to miss it. Although, every single previous cycle I have gotten dark dark positives for over a week at a time. It's very odd.

I have a very short surge, so I always test twice a day. I've always caught my surge at night before bed.
My FF Chart: 4bb174 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
Oh and what exact brand of cheapies? It can make a difference. Was it the cheapies you got a week of positives on?
Congrats gagirl! I missed so many posts, I just can't keep up. Momamia did the dr do a pregnancy test?
I went in for my progesterone test and it was much higher than last month. It was 16 in January and 32 today so I'm hoping that means I O'd both follicles and they were good. I did see a tiny but if red cm when I wiped so that made me nervous because I'm only 5dpo so I know it couldn't be ib.

Lauren, I opk test twice a day when it gets close to my normal O time. I usually O on CD13 or CD15 and start opk testing on CD10. If it's super negative then I'll only test once a day (CD10), but usually by CD11 it's getting darker so I switch to twice a day (~1-2pm) and again before bed (~10pm-midnight). I test till my opk goes negative, because that is usually the day I O (except for this cycle LOL)! I used to get 5+ days of +opks with the Wondfo brand because they seemed to be overly sensitive. I switched to the Babi brand of cheapies and now I get 2 days of +opks and on day 3 it goes negative. Much better!
Quinn, no he didn't do a pregnancy test. :/ He said they'll wait until I'm 17dpo.
My FF Chart: 4bb174 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
These are today's OPK... I'll continue to do twice a day this cycle to see how it goes. These seem closer to O to me. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/16/02...1f79e38a0b.jpg

A lot has happened since I was last on so I'll just jump right in.......
Wow! I am loving all the bfp's this week! Congrats ladies and best of luck for those that will be testing this week :)
Lauren: FX you get a very obvious opk soon :) Remind me is this your 1st clomid cycle?
momamia: I am optimistic this is still your month, :pray: you get a late bfp
Sorry if I missed anyone!
I am currently waiting on af (today is cd 30), I am sure she's on her way. I am having NO pregnancy or even progesterone symptoms anymore except for vivid dreaming. I have already started brownish-red spotting which always preludes my period. I wish it would just come on already so I can move onto the next cycle. Sigh.
Yes honey it's my first Clomid cycle after 11 months ttc.

CD9 for me and BFN this morning, it was expected since its still early but one can always hope for a squinter. :)
If I look at my post O temp pattern on my chart overlay comparing this cycle to my first pregnancy it looks really similar. Gives me some hope.

Hi ladies! I've been stalking this board rooting you all on and hoping to see some more BFPs soon. :)
Unfortunately things are not looking good for me. I've been taking a FR test daily and the lines have stayed the same. When I had my losses in Oct. and Dec., the lines got significantly lighter at 4w1d which is what I am today. When I took a test this morning, I could barely see the line at all. :( This is my groundhog day. I expect to start bleeding tomorrow since both times I started bleeding at 4w2d. I won't be swaying anymore because at this point, I just want a healthy baby. I have no chance at having a daughter or any baby for that matter if I can't even stay pregnant for more than a hot second. I'll be making an appointment with the doctor to see if there's something going on because I feel like even though my losses are very early, something must be wrong.
Oh my ksmom I am so so sorry :( no words just huge hugs and I truly hope your doctors appointment provides both answers and hope for the future. Again I'm so sorry :(

So sorry ksmom. I hope you get answers.
Sorry ksmom, I hope the doctor can get you some answers as to why this keeps happening.
Sorry Ksmom praying for you.
