I'm also swaying boy which is supposed to raise fertility. I'm taking supplements like wheatgrass with my prenatal.

(((HUGS))) I know how you feel. We TTC'd for years to conceive our second (loss). Right now I think I am coasting on the fact that our DD was conceived right off.... and we conceived last cycle but it just didn't stick. Don't know how long it'll last but it's working for the moment.

Well looks like O happened yesterday. I'm kinda bummed though... I always see temps jump WAY up when pregnancy is possible. ������

Your dip was pretty big... don't give up yet... you JUST startd the 2 WW lol ;)

boysboys- Your dip was pretty big... don't give up yet... you JUST started the 2 WW lol ;)

Temp didn't rebound like I hoped it would so it's looking like an egg may not be "rescuing" my prog levels. Not giving up hope but it does knock my optimism down a peg or two :/

I don't know anything about temping but hopefully it keeps going up! :)

Basically an implant dip (a dip mid 2WW) happens when the prog drops because the corpus luteum (what is left on the ovary after O) stops producing it and supposedly temp jumps back up when an implanted egg comes to the rescue and takes over prog production. An implant dip is far from a guarantee of a BFP and you can be preg without a dip but it is something charting ppl watch for. But moreso I am concerned about how low my temps are... doesn't mean I'm out but not a very reassuring sign.

And if I happen to get a bfp I'm going to lie and say its negative because I want at least a few weeks without unintentional or intention dumb comments!!
edited to say: the comment my mum made wasn't done so in a supportive it'll be ok way, it was shrug of the shoulders, be glad for what you got, what's wrong with you, why on earth are you trying again kinda way

Yep I know this treatment all to well.
You're wise to keep your BFP private long as you can imo. So much unwelcome judgements.
