Don't worry mt9178, I just turned 39 yesterday and we have been trying for baby#2 for the last 7 months. Hopefully it will just take longer since we are older, I believe it will happen. Think Positive thoughts!!

Hi purple, so glad your specialist came to the party and you now have something to work with [emoji4]
Your charts do look very similar momamia fingers crossed it's a great early sign!
Mt9178 sorry you are feeling down, it must be so disheartening, I hope the clomid can help you get your BFP this month xx

So I posted a long winded thread today basically asking what I should do to try make this cycle work and Atomic answered with an answer that made me more confident going into this cycle. So we will be attempting every three days after AF finishes, little bit apprehensive about adding in possibly an extra attempt but as she pointed out being on LE for 26 weeks now and this being our last month for a bit it just has to happen now. Anyone else doing every 3 days or heard of someone getting their DD doing e3d? The stats don't seem to be there for it on the stats doc but I'm assuming e3d is kinda like 2 attempts in fertile window which is about 65% compared to one attempt which is 70% so I'm happy enough to gamble with that 5% - I think!
Also I mentioned in that thread that I believe I have a tilted cervix - like when I check it I can kinda reach past it and feel the OS facing my rear end. She said that I could try have our attempt and lay flat for 5 mins but instead of J&D like I've been doing try laying on my tum for a further 10 minutes and thats helped other ladies with tilted cervix get pg. Please tell me a tilted cervix is common enough lol. To conceive our boys I elevated my hips for maybe 30 mins after every attempt (DH thought I was crazy but both boys were one hit wonders so there had to be method to my madness lol)
Titled cervix/uterus is pretty common hopper. I have one too. I think I just raised my hips while lying on my back each time I got pregnant so maybe you should try that again. 26 weeks on LE will be an excellent sway for you but you need to make sure the sperm are actually getting to where they are needed I guess. Good luck!
Sounds good hopper, mine also seems to be tilted and I had no probs getting preg straight away with my 3 boys - although I also propped my hips with them too, I haven't been doing that so far this time....

Thanks purple! Never noticed before - well I noticed but I didn't think it was a "thing" until I started checking my CP and reading about others CPs and realised mine was a bit different lol. Yeah I think I might put a cushion under my rear for 5 mins this cycle and then try flipping to my tummy like Atomic suggested and hopefully something will work. Half afraid of doing anything that I did to get pg on our boys but at the same time if the swimmers aren't getting in there then there's no chance of getting pregnant so my sway is kinda useless I suppose lol xx
Lol afraid of copying what may have helped you fall before ;) I think that was my thinking up til now, anything that I felt helped on the boys was definitely a no no but am thinking I have changed my lifestyle SO drastically it surely must count for something. All I need is one pink swimmer to get in there and that there is my dream come to life ;)Quote:

I would try that! Things like this don't sway- diet, exercise, and # of attempts are what sway.
DS1[emoji125]🏼, DS2[emoji577], DS3[emoji170][emoji577][emoji843][emoji602][emoji170] Jan. '16 I'll sway for a DD[emoji166][emoji171][emoji166] for my DH!!
Yep your right I am a bit scared too lol but I think PP is right it prob doesn't sway. We had a go last night and instead of jumping up straight away I did lay on my tummy for about 10 mins... Maybe my next 4D attempt I will prop if I'm feeling game lolQuote:

Do you mean say you are standing up and your cervix "should" be straight down but it curves to the back - is that what you mean? Cause that's how I would describe mine, if that's an accurate description lol. It makes sense I guess, cause if I lay on my back and don't have hips elevated the sperm is just gonna pool behind my cervix cause it can't reach it! But with elevated hips or lying on my tummy it changes the playing field entirely! Oh wow I am actually excited about trying this month!!Quote:

Wow that's flying! I should be around the same as you now if my cycle last month hadn't been so screwy. Hoping for an earlier O than what I'm assuming happened last month - fingers and toes crossed!! My cycles are generally 31-32 days ish so should be testing this day next month. What about you hun?Quote:

I honestly don't know hopper [emoji53] I'm hoping I will O early like last cycle which will have me start testing around 12th but if last cycle was a fluke I won't be testing till the end of the month!Quote:

I had another temp rise this morning. I can't lie... it definitely has my hopes up that this month worked. I'd honestly be shocked if it didn't since we had so many attempts. I am trying to patiently wait to test and find out for sure, but it's slowly killing me not knowing. Lol!! Anyone else in the same boat? I'm 6dpo today.
Good luck momamia. When do you test?
Today is cd 1 for me and I'll start my clomid in 2 days. I really hope this is it for me. This will be our 5th month trying with a boy sway which is supposed to increase fertility. It's very frustrating. My lp went from 11 to 12 days so hopefully that's a good thing.

Good luck momamia4!!
Tfahn just keep trying!!! I was 27 TTC our first and it took us 9 months. Don't stress, I think that is what it so long for us.
Hopper-I would def. try what atomic recommended. That makes sense and I hope it works. I think you have other things influencing your away that it will override every 3 days.
I'm getting kind of excited. I'm about a week out or less for AF and I keep getting sharp stabbing pains in my breast. I've never had this before. When I google it a lot of girls got this as a first pregnancy sign but Doctor websites say it happens right before AF due to the rise in hormones. I also tried to sit up last night in bed and got a tingly/pinching pain on my left side under my belly button. This morning the breast pain is staying in the left breast by my armpit. I never had this before AF?? I'm scared to test but will prob give in soon.

Momamia, sounds promising! I hope your BFP is just around the corner. :)
Quinn, I have my fingers and toes crossed for you! You can have all my blue dust. ;)
CD13 for me today and I really don't ever ovulate before CD20, usually it's closer to CD25-30. Time is just dragging. :sigh: I'd love to get pregnant soon so I can be off this diet before Thanksgiving!!
Quinn, I'm trying to hold out until Nov 4th. I scheduled an appointment with my RE for the 3rd and I'm sure he'll do a blood hcg test, so :fx: I'll know then! :)
Praying for a healthy sticky bean!
I'm having sharp boob pain but today it is just staying in one boob. Last night I had a tingling/pinching pain under my belly button and a little left. I feel a bit nauseous and kind of car sick/dizzy yesterday. I'm almost wondering if I'm sick though. I'm due for AF at the end of this week. I just think my head is playing games with me.

Quinn, can I ask the reason they gave u clomid? Were u having long cycles or delayed ovulation? I have my first RE appt on Thursday this week and just wondering what they give clomid out for. Hopefully this is your month?
Also can I ask any blue sway moms what multi vitamin you r taking? Apparently the one i am taking has too many herbs and could decreased fertility so I am looking for some new ones to get.

They are for sure expensive but real good stuff. Where other ones i stores are full with fillers and absorption is so low.
Hope this helps!
Magical! I am testing on November 14th. Just got my first IUI today second is tomorrow.

Thanks, Gg8! :) I am so excited!! I am trying so hard not to be, but I just can't help it. I'm in for a huge blow if I get a bfn.

Momamia, fingers crossed you will get bfp!!
Quinn, I understand why you feel so frustrated. Glad to hear your lp was longer and I really hope this cycle you will get pregnant. Good luck!
Dpike, sounds promising, fx!!
I got my +opk today, finally! I'm cd21. So we are having our attempt tonight!
Good luck 2xblue!! Pink dust!!
My OPKs started to get darker a couple of days ago and I got all excited I was going to O early but now they're light again. :( Come on ovaries, hurry up and pop out an egg! LOL
Good luck Gg8 and 2xblue!:)

ksmom, I had the same this cycle. Really thought I was going to o earlier. My opks started to get little darker aswell but then they went lighter. It was frustrating. Would be so great to o earlier. What cd are you? Hopefully you will o soon.
2xblue, I'm on CD13 and I pretty much never ovulate before CD20.
Not long now till testing momamia fingers crossed tightly for you x
Good luck Also Quinn I hope the clomid does the trick [emoji4]
Dpike your symptoms sound promising!!
Ksmom I am also CD13 today [emoji4]
Yay 2xblue good luck!

Dpike, I had the same symptoms when I got my bfp in July! :) It actually has me worried this cycle because I'm not having any symptoms except for a lot of cramping/pressure in my lower abdomen and feeling bloated. I have a lot of lower back pain today but I think it's from cleaning both tubs/showers today. :fx: for you!! :)
Praying for a healthy sticky bean!
I'm being prescribed clomid because I experienced unexplained secondary infertility with my second dd. I O on my own so there's really no explanation as to why I'm not getting pregnant. Clomid didn't help last time so I'm not sure if it will this time but I'm hopeful.Quote:

Thanks Quinn, Hopefully the clomid works for u this cycle. I'm excited and nervous to go to the RE this week to see what they have to say.
Let me know when everyone plans on testing so I can add it to the 1st post [emoji4]
I have my scan on Thursday to check lining, see when this little one frostie can go back in.

So I'm new, not to Gd but to 2WW. DH in August finally decided he was ready for us to ttc for #4, took me 4 years to convince him and only after we had a mc in July while I was on the nexplanon. Had nexplanon removed and have been ttc since, only issue has been I haven't had a good cycle with a definite ovulation until this month. We are swaying for a girl and I'm taking Fertilitea which has vitex. It has regulated my cycles now to 28days. I know from physical signs, temp shift today and pos opk I ovulated Oct 30/31 (cd 12-13) so today should be 1dpo. We bd cd 7, 10, & 11. I will test Nov 15. Here's hoping!!!
Add me to the 25th... it's just a guess for now. I'm expecting the clomid to make me ovulate around cd19 but last time I took it was 5 years ago so my body has changed.Quote:
