ksmom, I agree with Momamia, I'd go straight to an RE. Maybe all you need is some Clomid/Femara. That's what I'd try first.
Momamia, I see that line and I'm kinda excited for you! But I think a break from testing etc can't hurt. Either way you should have a good idea what's going on next week when you get your beta results.
I'm praying for you Momamia!
Maiden- OMG, I'm lovin your chart!
I've got everything crossed so hard for you both!!!

Eeeek Momamia I see a line there! :D I think it may actually be positive!! That happened to me this cycle. When I took a FRER the day before my BFP there wasn't anything within the time frame but after it dried, a second line appeared. I really hope this is the start of a BFP for you! FXFX
Thank you ladies for your input. :) I'm going to look into REs in my area and see what there is. I'm hoping it's a simple fix like Clomid as Maiden said. DH is eager to get himself checked out as well.
Ksmom my OB referred me to my RE and gave us a free consultation coupon. It's worth a try to ask them. We saved a couple hundred dollars that way.

Keeping my fx for you momamia.
Maiden - loving your chart, hope it leads to a bfp.
Essnce - keeping my fx for you that some swimmers made it.
Quinn - fx that you had ib on 5dpo.
I'm on cd11 today & will probably start daily opk's from now as I've noticed my cm changing to watery & more of it. Hoping o won't be as late as last cycle.

Praying that's your positive momamia!
I'm on CD 11 also farmgirl :-) FF says I'll O on CD 14... last month was CD 15 but a couple cycles ago it was CD 12. My cm is watery, hasn't gotten to ewcm yet... haven't gotten a positive opk yet but I don't bank on those as I usually miss my surge :-/ I'm feeling very crampy but this is my second clomid cycle and last cycle my cramps started a whole 5 days before I actually O'd. Normally it's only the day before and of O.
I'm thinking our attempt will be on Saturday CD 13 :-)
Hi Girls. I am back again this month we were going to take a break but after some chatting with hubby we decided to just go for it and try again. I am cd7 today and we plan to dtd e4d plus another attempt at pos opk! Good luck to everyone this month xo
Good luck ladies!! :)

So I assumed that yesterday's OPK were positive and we went for it. I've had bad cramping pains on my left side all day just lingering. I'm hoping for a temp spike in the morning to ensure great timing. FX that O was today...

Mommamia, that looks totally positive to me. You wouldn't get an Evap line that clear. I would call that an absolutely def positive. I've never seen an Evap line that dark. Yay for you!

Omg that looks good [emoji1360][emoji322][emoji1405]Quote:

Kmom I'm so sorry you're dealing with this now for the third time.. I really hope the doc has answers for you. And I don't blame you for discontinuing your swaying. I've slowly let up on my sway 1 tactic at a time every cycle ttc that ends in a bfn. I'm pretty much down to not swaying at all at this point and just crossing my fingers really. /: praying for you!
Good luck Quinn! Sooo hoping you see a bfp!
Momamia that is strange to spot for a while then stop! But your test looks REALLY promising! I agree with Bella! It's VERY dark for an evap and it actually has good color as well! How fun to get a surprise bfp! Fx it gets darker now! :D
Good luck to everyone else who is waiting to attempt or waiting to test! I JUST finished AF today at CD6. So we are going to try EOD from here till our next AF if my body can keep up with it! I've also started taking soy Isoflavones. I've had people swear by it and recommend it CD5-9 and then I've had people say it won't help but rather screw up my cycle. I'm just going for it. I don't really have anything to lose at this point cuz I'll just keep trying it it doesn't work ya know? Especially since I'm going EOD, even if it throws O off, I'll still get an attempt in really. I suppose you could call this cycle a Hail Mary for me haha :)
Sadly a big temp drop for me this morning, so I think I am out this month :( I really thought with the HSG in December and the miscarriage last month that I would get a BFP this month but I guess not. Will go back on Clomid next cycle in hopes that it will help, not giving up yet but tired of getting down every month.
Good luck Nann and to the other ladies who will O soon! Momamia I can't wait to see if that test was really positive! :)
Started bleeding a bit last night and now it's full blown AF this morning. :( Been trying my best to not think about what's happening to me otherwise I'd be inconsolable. I need to keep it together for my boys' sake. I feel relieved to be done with swaying but at the same time I'm sad because it almost feels like I wasted all those months on diet/exercise for nothing. We'll be taking a break from TTC until we can figure out what's going on.
I'm so sorry Tfahn. :( I really hope it happens for you soon. It's so unfair how many of you ladies have been TTC for so many months. Hopefully the Clomid does the trick for you next cycle. Hugs!
Tfahn- I'm so sorry [emoji20]! Your BFP is around the corner, I promise!
Ksmom- my heart breaks for you [emoji22]! I'm sending you loads of strength and healing.
As someone who struggled to get pregnant and had a miscarriage along the way, I want you lovely ladies to not lose hope. I know it's hard when everyone seems to get pregnant with ease, or you reach your would be due date with no baby to hold. It's heart breaking. But I want to tell you that you WILL get pregnant. For some reason it takes a little while for our baby to join us. I like to think he/she is up in heaven waiting for the perfect egg that will give them the best life possible. Know that I'm praying for all of you. Just don't lose hope, because at the end of the day that is all we are left with. Huge hugs!

I have reached a place of peace. I won't be trying for a fourth child. After much reflection, I realized I was trying to force it to happen. Nothing good in life comes from force. I realized that faced with the prospect that my child bearing years may be over, I panicked. Now that I've calmed down, I want to enjoy my beautiful boys and be fully present with them. I am forever changed by being a part of this forum and by the friendships I have made here. I will definitely still hang around to see my lovely ladies get your BFPs and to see your precious babies!
SN- I am also forever changed by the LE diet! I can't go back to my old ways! While nursing such a small baby, I do have to have a small snack between lunch and dinner, but I do not eat like I used to! I can't even stomach eating more than 1.5 oz of poultry, and red meat makes me vomit! Crazy!
Loads of baby dust to all [emoji597][emoji597][emoji597][emoji92][emoji93][emoji94]!

XX, I know what you mean about being changed by the LE diet. I'm normally the type that snacks all day long but I've found that my body has gotten so used to me just eating lunch and dinner that it's hard to go back to my old normal. I've also found that I tend to make "LE friendly" food choices because it's practically ingrained into me now.
ksmom - I do believe that acupuncture got my body back to "normal" and after two losses. Of course with 3 it is good to see a specialist but if you are able to see an acupuncturist I would highly recommend it.
Well I guess I'm CD1 as of lunchtime today, 2 days early which makes my LP only 10ish days last cycle. I will definitely be testing with a FRER and an IC before taking the first dose of Clomid just to be on the safe side.
So sorry tfahn and ksmom. (((HUGS))) to both of you.
Well, I was restless last night and didn't wake up with a temp rise. CM is gone though and my OPKs are almost completely white now..... I guess maybe I ovulated? Idk. I hate how incredibly confusing this can be. Ugh.

And I just caught up. Tfahn and ksmom :( I'm sorry. This can be such a long hard journey.

I'm sorry tfahn. I was really hoping to see a BFP from you. Fx for next month, the Clomid should help your LP. Though 10 days isn't bad.
Good luck Pbn3, pinkin, and Laurenk, get those eggs!
farmgirl, I hope you O sooner this cycle. I O late and I hate it.
I noticed yesterday that I struggled to button my jeans. I'm retaining water which is very unusual for me. I blame the Clomid. My sore nipples are almost gone today (they were really bad yesterday) and tender breasts totally gone. I've been feeling cold since last night which makes me think AF is about to come. I'm 11dpo and expecting my LP to be 14 days on Clomid but who knows. Not feeling very optimistic.

My Ovulation Chart
Lauren me too. Pretty sure I oed yesterday but temp dip this morning after yet another crap sleep. Pretty sure ff will say I oed day of peak opk and treat yesterday as fallback rise but going by cm I only oed yesterday. Finding it hard to give a s!*t and not even sure I'll bother temping anymore.Quote:

Maiden your chart is looking fantastic!!! Will you really not trst until 15dpo? Can your arm not be twisted to test a little earlier lol?

Yes Maiden please test earlier for us, your chart looks great.
Sorry tfahn. Hugs!! :)
Lauren, the nurse told me this cycle that it can take a day or two for your temp to rise after you ovulate. So, FX you see the rise tomorrow!
Pbn and pinkin, FX you caught your golden eggs!!
Sorry maiden. FX af stays away!!
So, my spotting stopped again. It hasn't ever increased to what I would call a light flow. It's just been spotting when I wipe. I'm considering getting a frer but I'm nervous it will be negative. I have some progesterone after my weird super heavy period last cycle. I'm wondering if I should take a frer and then take the progesterone if it's a bfp to stop the spotting?? It really doesn't help that we're in a completely different state right now, otherwise I would call my RE. :/ I couldn't temp this morning because I was up all night driving and reached our destination at my usual temp time. Limbo.... Ugh....
momamia4 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
Forgot to mention that I've been feeling a little dizzy today and I still have tender boobs which I only ever have around ovulation. It's so hard not to get my hopes up!!! Also, my lp is usually only 13 days and my spotting seems to have stopped now that I'm 14dpo and my cramps have really calmed down. FX they are all good signs!!!!
momamia4 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
My temps ALWAYS look good at this point. And actually my LP temps this month are overall lower than is usual. But I have great progesterone levels so my temp often climbs until AFTER my period has come. Basically my temps should not be read into at all! The only good signs I have is no spotting or cramping, those always mean I'm out.
Also I think it may not be possible for me to get an early BFP given how badly I test with urine. :(
I just don't think I can handle BFNs right now. February is the WORST month of the year for me when my SAD is most severe. And next month I turn 35 which I'm NOT looking forward too. I HATE birthdays.
Sorry for the rant, I do REALLY appreciate your optimism, ladies.
I'm dying without today's temp Momamia! I'd definitely test tomorrow with a FRER if no AF.
Momamia, this cycle has been so crazy for you! I hope you can get a for sure answer soon. That rollercoaster is awful! FX

Me too!!!! I was so mad that we got here so much later than I planned. Now I just have to convince DH to let me find somewhere to get a frer, lol!Quote:
