I will keep testing, but hopefully I will see a temp shift. I also think it is possible that my body was trying to O and won't and will wait another week- like last month. I didn't get a positive OPK then either, but was using cheapies!

FX, lets wait and see.

MFC and TTC5- you ladies make me feel old, I had my first at just short of 24! Anyway I'm 33 now so I know I'm not the oldest here but holy cow.

TTC5 - you had bright pink IS?! Gimme some tmi, how much, how long did it last and how long after it did you get your bfp?

spicy I would wait for +opk but again I may the the only one here who says timing matters. So good luck hope you get a bfp!

That's true, :think: but I would still do something different since one of them was a girl if that make sense. Remember Rebirthda? She did MSU, but some how (don't remember) it ended with TBM I would follow her attempt.

BTW- did you talk with her? I miss her and I hope she's doing well.

TTC5 - I am feeling pretty good physically. Lots of hip pain by the end of the day but otherwise I feel really good. Emotionally I think I'm doing pretty well, too. I'm really starting to look forward to meeting her and to having a little baby again. I still have some feelings of GD but mostly now it has changed to looking forward to trying to sway blue again maybe late next year - it's much better than when I initially felt devastated that this baby was a girl. Now I think about her and look forward to cuddling her and caring for her... and hopefully giving her a little brother in a couple of years. Maybe not as completely blissful as I would like to be - but I am looking forward to her and I think that's really good from where I was 20 weeks ago :D

Spicy - I think you should use two OPK's like TTC5 said. I would also keep checking your cervix. I have def been able to feel mine come lower when I'm close to O so I think that's a good indicator. Otherwise mine is really high and super hard to feel too. Check for EWCM after you have a bm - that's a really good time b/c it flows down with the pressure from the bm. Wipe just the back first then check for CM. I think looking at your chart with the EW that an attempt may be good idea... assuming you are getting a couple/few days of EW or close to it. I know that I generally get 2-3 days of EW so I would feel confident trying on the evening of the second EW day or the morning of the 3rd EW day - I would probably shoot for the second ideally. Hopefully I am making sense. I think diet is more important than timing but the EWCM will help. How long are your cycles normally? What day do you usually O around? I would guess that you will probably O close to around the same day you usually do.

Princessap - FX for you to get a blue BFP!! the 2ww is so exciting and so endless at the same time!!

3PNB - FX for you too!!!

Flava - I will post plenty of pics when she gets here, I can't wait to share her name and see what she looks like. We always keep names a surprise and I'm bursting to tell :D

Had an appt w/ my midwife today and as I suspected my little bean has dropped quite a bit. She is not fully engaged in the pelvis yet, but I have never had one drop so early (I'm 36w now). I am curious about a possible early arrival! DH and I put the baby seat in the car today and DH is going to pick up the birth tub tomorrow so we will pretty much be good to go. My babies seem to like their due dates so I'm not going to get excited... but I am curious with the baby starting to drop already. Having tons of braxton-hicks, too. Can't wait to be able to show off pictures :D

I am wishing good luck to all May boy swayers. Hope this month brings you your boy BFPs.

You are so not old!!

Yep, with my third I clearly remember being at work and seeing it when going to the toilet. I sms my husband in panic (given my history of mc's) and he said not to worry it would be ok.. I STRESSED sooo much but all was well. I would alternate between brown/pink/red/mucous lol I guess some woman just do this more than others??!!

For 3 lines don't you need like a bottom shot, not a profile shot? It could be cord?

Hey Skrimpy- this was great advice, I wish I would have put less weight on the digi opks because my temp rose way up today- so it does look like I ovulated. So we dtd around 9pm (and my dh loved his one cup of strong coffee)- so I doubt we made it. I am probably in o+12 territory, :). Digi still negative this morning.

Well it was a good practice run- eggwhites, my and dh ph, big o, staying in bed afterwards, luckily I only have about a 13 day LP, so I will get another go this month hopefully if I have another short cycle. My O's can range from day 13 to day 19, but this early isn't unusual. So, a message to all, don't use FMU because you can miss your surge!

FX a very fast blue swimmer got there. :)

Thanks to all! So this morning cervix is HSO and really good ew! Not dh's sperm. What is going on?

Also- you guys think I have a chance with dtd that late at night and seeing a temp rise in the morning? I would feel like I had missed the egg or it had been waiting around.
