Abundant April 2WW Thread (3)

Good Morning!
Ash-it's a blank circle for me with fmu on CD12. Feeling mild cramps, but not really strong yet like I typically get. I'll test with a wondfo later today. Any signs of maybe an earlier O for you?
Skyblue-bet yours will be solid soon!!! GL getting attempts in before DD awakens! My kiddos are early risers too ugh. Does she still nap not sure her age, maybe nap time=BD time lol. In the pics, my OPKs were all dry except for CD11, puzzling as to why they were all dark. They don't appear as dark on the digi.
Netti-thanks, maybe I'll make an appt with my OB then. Fx your OPK gets darker and you'll have answers about what's going on! Hope you can get DH on board for another baby!
Well, It's our anniversary today, so getting an attempt in either way🥂I was hoping to have at least a flashing smiley, but maybe tomorrow!

Only sign I have is slightly darkening wondfo these are all dried

Which is good for my on cd12 last cycle there wasn't a hint of change until BAM [emoji95] positive

And because I can't remember everything I want to type in one reply lol maybe it's good your having a longer follicular phase maybe your making a big fat healthy egg this time


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/23cbe8

I can def tell it's getting darker Ash-yay!! It'll help to see the progression instead of a surprise pos OPK!!
And I hope you're right, it's prob a good thing I didn't have a pos yet, so that the egg can develop nicely! Thanks for pointing that out, makes me feel better :)

Got my solid smiley with fmu.

Woohoo sky!!!!! It's show time 😀😀

I know. We have very busy weekend plans. Not by choice though. [emoji51][emoji51] I am nervous. Don't want to stop at 2 attempts like last cycle.


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6513f2

Sky can I suggest removing that am bd from Thursday from your chart as it was protected? (Thanks for the reminder 😉 brain is slowly catching up lol)

.

Yayyyy skyblue!!! Time to start the party!!
Sooo I may or may not have done a "no-no" [emoji15] I'm starting to get stronger cramps and I was just too curious, so I took another digi OPK this afternoon after a hold. It was blank this AM, BUT now I have a flashing smiley! Does this really mean I'm getting closer to peak, or did I mess up the way the OPK interprets results by testing twice in one day?? I also tested with a wondfo & I think it's looking darker. I'll post a pic once it dries...


My Ovulation Chart

The same thing happened to me last cycle. It was blank in the morning but flashing in the afternoon. This things are tricky. Pbn would be able to tell what could be the reason.
With this advanced ones, you need to start testing with fmu on the suggested day as per cycle length. For me it was cd9 last month and cd10 this months. I think it needs to have a base and then it goes from there. I think it's not wrong for you since wondfo is also getting darker.


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6513f2

I have to stop peeing on sticks. Top is two days before af due, middle is day af due, bottom is today, a week late. Feeling good and just called to make my first ob appointment on May 10!

Srg-great lines, especially that last one! Yay for your appt! Def keep us updated :) How many weeks now? Feeling any MS?


My Ovulation Chart

Srg beautiful lines 😍🎉 all the best and wishing you a very h&h pregnancy ❤

Now to you Lola tsk tsk (finger is waggling at you 😂) well the fact it hasn't come up with an error screen (the usual result from doing this apparently) is great news but as for whether its messed up readings I have no idea 😕 but if it continues to line up with your wondfos then perhaps it will work out fine. Seems it was fine for you too sky last cycle? Maybe it's not as big of deal as is made out. I'd just hate for the tester to be rendered useless with an error screen and no longer usable that cycle.... this happened to me and mine was flashing smiley but I was going poas crazy and tested like 4 times that day convinced it would be solid. On the fourth test it just went to error so I had to go out and buy test strips to use instead 😐. As sky has mentioned you need to start on a particular day that they recommend for your cycle length :) cant wait to see the dried opk 😀

Here's my OPK from this afternoon. I think my latest may be ever so slightly darker & I had the flashing smiley, so maybe getting close?!

My Ovulation Chart

Lola I would call that absolutely positive! In fact your test line looks slightly darker than control! Did it look darker when wet? Eeeeek!!! Both you and sky are hitting go time 😀😀 what time is it where you are? Thinking you may as well pee on the digi again 😂😂

Pbn-haha...I totally let my curiosity give in & tested against my better judgement [emoji849] It did look darker to me when wet. It is around 7PM here. So now that I have a flashing smiley, I can keep testing until solid?? I just won't overdo it...don't want to buy a new one yikes!! [emoji15] BD is def in the plan tonight, so if I get a solid in a day or 2, do we BD again?


My Ovulation Chart

Lola I think it's honestly ok I had a flashing and then a few hours later a positive wondfo so I took a digi and it was solid. But so exciting your getting closer!! I want some digis now.... I do remember last cycle your wondfo test line was much much darker than control so maybe that's what your blaring positive is..... or maybe I'm just trying to hold you back with me [emoji6]
Yay srg I'm sure now that I inownlines darken I'll pee on them much past my first bfp! Hope I can join you soon!



https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/23cbe8

Yep I'm thinking test with the digi again tonight to see if its caught up hormone wise and gives you a solid because your wondfo is def positive and I would bd tonight absolutely 😀. Did you save the urine you tested with? Or maybe hold for an hour?

Ya, it looks dark [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]. Getting there Lolla. I used it twice in one day in the last cycle for two days. This time just once a day with fmu and wondfos in between. Now I have stopped using them all after solid.


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6513f2

Srg - Love those beautiful lines.
Ash - How about pink digis? They also give a solid smiley without flashing. I liked those too.

Hope we all could be there soon. Fx fx


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6513f2

Netti: Sorry about your negative.....Hope you can get DH on board.

Sky: Yay for solid smiley!!! Good luck with your BDing plan.

Ash: Lines are looking good and getting close! TWW here you come.

Lola: I think you always have PCOS, but many women wouldn't know...you only know if they scan your ovaries and they see lots of follicles. I'm pretty sure it sways blue, due to the male hormones, but if you've got no symptoms like me, then your hormones will be fine. You can always say you've been trying longer. I went to my ob with 4 months worth of tracking before we had even started trying and he gave me clomid. Let's hope this is your cycle though and you'll never have to think about any of this again xo

Srg: :Lines are looking great!


Pbn3: Thanks for all of your support and advice! Maybe you should be the Aussie Atomic? ;)


AFM: In the 4 day wait, waiting to see my ob again for another scan. I'm so scared it's a blighted ovum and they will see nothing. By Wed my HCG would be around the 30,000 mark, so if I see nothing then there's not much hope. Just have to hope and pray.

Thanks everyone for your support! You can't get rid of me yet! I still might need your support in another TWW if things don't go to plan.

Iwant4kids how did you work out hcg should be around the 30,000 mark? Just checking as hcg generally stops doubling every 48hrs after you reach 6,000mui and slows down from there. Just making sure you were aware so if your number isnt 30,000ish (not sure if you got this figure by doubling over and over) not to freak out. There's a hcg calculator online, have you tried it? Literally cannot wait for your next scan!!! Oh and as for the Aussie Atomic what a compliment 😀😀 but your majorally overestimating my knowledge and ability 😂 I honestly really enjoy being a support and being able to use some of my research to good use ❤

Ps. I only know about the hcg doubling slowing down because I freaked out when my numbers didn't double on my middle pregnancy. From memory I was expecting 8000 but it came back 7600 or something along those lines and that's when I found out that it slows down to up to 4 days to double after reaching 6000. My ob wasn't worried AT ALL at the time.

We all are rooting for u Iwant4kids. Fx everything works out and get your happy news soon. Waiting with u.


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6513f2

Best day ever!!!! Look who's finally having their first race (horse number 3) 😀 surely someone here remembers the 'Boaty McBoatFace' naming gaffe 😂😂😂 cant wait to hear the race being called 😂😂😂 this is too funny 😂https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...7df3b58b46.jpg

Haha Ash-an extra day or so may be better anyway. Good memory! I did get some wondfos that were super dark last cycle, so maybe I'll have one like that when I get a solid smiley.
Iwant4kids-Pbn=Aussie Atomic love it!! Pbn-you do know that you're awesome, right?! I am so thankful for your support. Actually, couldn't ask to be in a group of better ladies! You are all wonderful :)
Iwant4kids-Fx that all is well & that you'll be confident in the ddg, but of course visit us anytime!!! Hopefully most (preferably ALL) of us will be joining you! I will keep you in my prayers...praying that there's a healthy baby & not a blighted ovum. I know the 4 day wait will feel like an eternity, but counting down for you to get there & hope to hear good news! Thanks again for the pcos info. I remember my OB pointing out a cyst and mentioning it, but said it was normal. With all of my ultrasounds during pregnancy...they would notice a lot of follicles right? Good to know about getting clomid-fx I won't need to worry!
Skyblue-first to the TWW woohoo!! Fx you catch that egg (blue to be exact).
Maxim-thinking about you & wondering if you were able to get an u/s and/or get your hands on clomid/femara?
Feeling good about this cycle for all of us! I feel relaxed...drinking a glass of wine with DH, rarely drink these days, but hey if it sways pink...why not [emoji12]


My Ovulation Chart

Lola it may not have been such a great memory lol I was looking back as the first April thread to find pix of my wondfo to see if they had any progression and they didn't. So I guess I'll see if it's truely progressing or not over the next few strips. I'll attach a pic from my last cycle https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...6389bff4d8.jpg


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/23cbe8

Lol Ash! It does look like more of a progression this time compared to these.


My Ovulation Chart

Lola how much longer till you poas (digi?)

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...3067fbf732.jpg
Eekk... lines tonight! I may actually O before day 16!!


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/23cbe8

Woohoo ash!!! That's darkening nicely 😀 bring on early o!

Pbn-POAS(digi) an hour ago and still a flashing smiley. Fx I get a solid tomorrow when I'll be on CD 13.
Ash-looking darker! We're all going to O so close!

My Ovulation Chart

I love it Lola but then again I hate that some of us might get disappointed [emoji17] I will be happy for anyone's bfp but honestly will be a bit sad if I don't get one!! Hopefully we can all have it and move on together.


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/23cbe8

I know Ash, in a perfect world we'd all have our BFPs with gender of choice! Maybe this will be the perfect time for all of us. Come on new moon, send fertile vibes & baby dust to all of us! [emoji12]I will be disappointed for sure if this isn't the cycle. I was hoping I would be able to visit my OB for a BFP & not fertility issues!
Curious to see what tomorrow brings for our OPKs.
Skyblue-GL with your attempts!!


My Ovulation Chart

Good luck ladies 😁😁😁

Does anyone get crampy before they ovulate, like af cramps?


Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Pbn3 - Oh yes, I had read about the doubling time reducing - thanks for the reminder. No more HCG tests at this stage, so I won't know. I suppose it depends how the scan goes.
Okay then, you're Aussie Atomic apprentice (you're excused if you don't know it all now) x

Sky - We are all 'rooting' for you made me LOL! I know it means cheering, but in Australia it means baby dancing hehe

Lola - Yes, I'm waiting for you all to join me!!! Fingers crossed!!
That's true, with all your pregnancy scans surely if you had PCO it would have been picked up already

Ash - line looks very close!!! 2 days I'd say!

Netti - I got crampy around O day this cycle.

Good Morning from the US East Coast ;)
Annnnnd it's a solid smiley this AM at 7:00 AM wowzers! We BD last night, does this mean we need to BD again today?? Temp is still down.
Iwant4kids-how funny about "rooting" hahaha. I guess there has been a lot of rooting going on both meanings lol.
Netti-ohh yes, I get very crampy! I'd say my O pains are stronger, uncomfortable!


My Ovulation Chart

Lola it's entirely up to you whether you want more than one attempt but last night's will give you a 2-o attempt which apparently is considered better than a 1-o. So you are fabulously covered atm :) but if you're willing to lessen odds of pink to increase odds of conception then by all means add an attempt tonight! Cant wait to see how your wondfo looks later! Although I wont see for another 8 hours or so (its 9.15pm here for me)
