hope it's implantation cramps pinkin!
we did compressed FR so DH released at noon the day before, then released and discarded again 24hrs later... we DTD that evening (7hrs after his previous release), then again 8hrs after that in the early hours of the morning, and then finally 12hrs after that in the early evening.
That sounds like the path I will take for my next attempt if I am out.. My d/h just cant keep up with releasing everyday for days on end, So you dtd first time on + opk?? So pretty much last attempt would of been o day?
Implantation cramps would be fantastic!
I don't know exactly when OV day is yet - not had a good enough thermal shift. It's most likely today (Monday) but could have been yesterday or could still be tomorrow. My CM looks a bit creamier today than it did yesterday, so maybe it was today afterall although I don't tend to get CM until later in the day so jury is still out on that one as I want to see a fair bit in order to convince me.
we got a pos OPK on Friday afternoon (after DH had released on Friday lunchtime - for fun, not for swaying), and first CBFM peak on Saturday morning so he released for the 2nd time on the Saturday lunchtime and we started DTD on Saturday night.
our last attempt was last night (Sunday)
does that make sense?
DH couldn't last for days on end either, and my OV is very irregular (normally CD26-CD31, last cycle it was CD19 thanks to vitex, this cycle it'll be CD15/16/17)
Yeah it does and that sounds like a great attempt.. I am going to tell d/h about it he will be much happier doing that!
Sounds great Rainbow, and excellent that the vitex helped get you ovulating a lot earlier. You should get a nice long luteal phase now. FX for you.
Sounds like a great attempt Rainbow!
I feel the same way as you do, pink. I am super crampy but really feel like there is no way I am preggo. But I don't at all think that for you!! It is such torture b/c you just want it to be over! Especially with the swaying stuff added into the mix.
thank you :) I think the attempt and sway this cycle went as well as it could have :D
I don't think either of you are out yet Amari or Pinkin, good luck!
Peony - where in your cycle are you at the moment?
Rainbow, I think that sounds like some fantastic attempts! Compressed FR does sound very lovely for a husband who can't keep up with constant FR
Peony, still can't to hear about your attempt coming up!
Pinkin, I understand your agony, but you may not be out yet! I know its easier said than done, but maybe you need something to take your mind off this for a few days??? I had what felt like AF cramps too a week before AF was due, and it turned out I was pregnant...I was cramping so much that I secretly believed I would start bleeding anyway on the day AF was due, because despite the fact that I saw two lines, it felt too much like AF cramping.
Katie, I think that's a great sign, and I still feel really really good about you getting a BFP! I can see it now, in a few days, I'll read about your big positive!!
Hope N Dreams, I think your plan sounds fab, can't wait to read soon for more details...love your ticker that says how many days you got left to go for your attempt!
Amari, hoping for a BFP for you hun! Hopefully the clomid will do the trick and give you a pinky bean!
Checked my cervix (and took an OPK in case, negative of course) and it is definitely lower and CM is creamy. Hmmm!
So I lined up all my OPKs thus far to see if there was any faint or noticeable change. I had started dating them when I first started using them by the date but then got lazy because the pen wasn't liking to write on them, so began doing "1, 2, 3, etc"
Around 8, which I think would have been 20th maybe, the OPK had sort of indent/scratches I didn't notice because it was night time, but that one almost looks like the bottom half of the line was sort of trying to be thoroughly pink? I wonder if maybe I had a surge around the 20th?!?
I took a photo if anyone can see what I'm saying, if you want to look at my little test sticks--haw haw!
