Good luck Janie! You never know, sometimes the stealthy sways are the successful ones because you're not quite as swaycessed as when you're actually trying to sway.

My last was a surprise and I couldn't wait to find out. I went somewhere and could tell at 14 weeks. It was just easier to find out asap, not sure if that would be helpful to you
Janie, congratulations!!
I think O'ing early or later in a cycle is always good for TTC pink...FX to you and I echo what AS said, sometimes the sneaky sways are best for obsession etc levels.
May I ask what you were doing differently...diet, baby aspirin, any of that ?
on monday june 3 at 6 am my opk was positive. i had light spotting, pink, the next am at 8. Then, i spotted dark brown wed and thursday, got freaked out and stopped the cranberry i was taking. all the spotting made me certain i had o'ed! so long story short, no supplements. i skipped breakfast everyday for about 3 weeks, not eating until at least 12 or 1, and started drinking diet coke. i was planning on starting vitex and putting dh on licorice root, but i was not planning on ttc until august.
was good on diet for about 2 weeks, and dh gave up red meat and was essentially vegetarian but only for about 1 month. ARGh!!!!!
oh well. i keep thinking that whatever the gender, this baby was determined to come to me! i didn't bd until 1 week and 2 day after positive opk.
Congratulations! This little one was just meant to be. Have H&H 9 months:HH:
Cranberry can cause spotting because it's a blood thinner, and your cervix can be easily injured and that coupled with the cranberry, can cause spotting. It's good that you stopped it when you did, since it can be harmful to a pregnancy. You should ALWAYS stop cranberry at a pos OPK.
Congratulations!
I know how frustrating it can be to conceive and you didn't get to sway the way you wanted to. I hope your pregnancy is healthy, though, and I really hope you get your girl this time. :)
PS - now you know, but yes, it is common for temperatures to run significantly above your cover line after implantation.
thank you all.
the most frustrating thing is we were on vacation, and at home, my husband was spending 30-60 min in hot tub with boys for the last month or two EXCEPT the week we conceived. my moon sign is boy, chinese gender says boy, so i am pretty sure it will be boy number 3. oh well, looks like i will be trying for number 4 in a few years:)
I'm right there with you....wasn't trying...but if I would have been...I would have surely taken some time to sway first! Keeping my fingers crossed for us!
Sperm takes 72 days to form so if DH had been in the hot tub for 1-2 months before your attempt, a week cannot undo that.Quote:
