Don't worry Indria...you still have a chance at having a girl not matter what you do. And remember that swaying can stress you out major which can make things that much work. Pink dust to you!!!
Thanks. I know! Now I´m beating myself because I was so stressed out yesterday, but I´m very happy too because we DTD yesterday evening and I think it was still on time. So mandicane, maybeoneday, happyheart, we might all be in 2ww together, how exciting! FX for all of you!
Whoa, rainbow flower, I didn't know you got a promotion to moderator! Congratulations!
Sorry ladies, I'm just lurking. I'm still prepping for a spring sway, but like to drop in on these threads once in a while. :)
yay Indira! ~~baby dust~~
Thanks, Fresas, I didn't actually know it was a promotion I just agreed to help out when I can!
I'm heading back home today. Feel quite emotional about it as it's always sad to leave Cornwall and head back to reality. *sigh*
Yay!! FX to Indira, mandicane, and maybeoneday!! :)
So last night before we DTD I got what really looked positive on a cheapie OPK. Definitely a dark second line. Even dh looked and agreed! :) This is my first time using a digital OPK and it was negative!?? Same thing this morning! What do you all think please??? I have been using the cheapies for years and have good results.... I wish I didn't have the digital test!
ETA: Posted pic in next post. :)
Have a great day everyone!! :) :)
Ok :) I have to get your opinion please... the top one is from last night and the bottom one is this morning with FMU. Is the second one a positive??
THANK YOU! I think I am losing my mind! LOL!! :)
happyheart - I like the security of a digital OPK since there was no questioning a + result, though I did notice that I often got my + about a day after they started to look + with ics. Go with your gut - if you think your ics are + and your body is showing other O signs, then start preparing for your attempt.
They look *almost* positive to me, but not completely positive. The test line is supposed to be just as dark as the control line. I think you'll get a + later today - hold your pee for 4 hours and test in the early afternoon - that's the time of day when your LH levels are highest.
THANK YOU sooo much Mocha!!! :) :) I appreciate your help so much!!! I will definitely do that!! :) I always worry about the "what if" I don't ovulate... I am sooo hoping it comes soon!! :) :)
sorry I can´t help happyheart, I´ve never used a digital.
But I´m sure you´ll O very soon, you´re doing frequent right? Do you want to do a cut-off?
Hi Indira :) We have been dtd everyday since Sat and will be through ovulation. :) I am on my second round of clomid and am so dry! I am using a little preseed this time. I know that it tends to sway blue but I need to use something.
Thank you!!! :) I hope we are in the TWW together! :)
I'm sure you'll O, happyheart - those OPKs definitely show a surge about to happen.
It looks like you're going to O soon happyheart - good luck!
Evening ladies, well I just got a :) on my opk so it looks as if tonight is the night...
Haven't told my DH yet but think he will be overjoyed to actually DTD finally this month! I have less CM than usual this month but have just popped an antihistimine anyway. Anything else I should be doing at this point??
Still undecided whether to use the rephresh as have never used it before - just have a free sample from the manufacturer? thoughts please ladies.
Was planning on using a bit of sylk as a lube though - although haven't used that before either!!
Oh too many decisions... thinking calm thoughts
xx
not sure what went on with that additional 'too'?? stupid computer!
I'm so glad you got your smiley! Personally, I wouldn't use Rephresh so close to your attempt or you might kill off all the spermies. I think at least 24 hours between using it and dtd is probably best...but then again, I ended up dropping Rephresh entirely, so maybe you shouldn't listen to me. :wink:
I'm sending you some baby dust for tonight!!!
Good luck maybe! I agree with Mocha, if your attempt is tonight then I wouldn't use the Rephresh now. I think Sylk is a great option for a one off attempt at O!
Oh i also got my +o smiley i checked at 2 today so im hoping to dtd as late tonight as i can stay up i felt pains in one side too so im hoping to catch o+10 as i think the 12 will be too much for me i have a feeling at my age 37 id miss it!I m supposed to o tomorrow so i was quite shocked,,nervous about it being today! i hope im not dtd too early??
Good luck sweetsister. Will be thinking and praying for a lot of pink tonight. I only ever get one day of :) so guessing I will be popping that egg out tomorrow at some point but I rarely have any other symptoms.
Have confidence in your sway and you will be fine. Don't know about you but really looking forward to a bacon sandwich when I get a BFP!
x
Good luck sweetsister!
You too maybeoneday! If you decide to use sylk, like somebody else already mentioned, pay attention, because if you squeeze it just a little, a lot comes out!
Hi ladies- I'm joining the conversation kind of late....
FX for all the ladies attempting and waiting.
I'm trying to plan our sway for whenever it might happen. I'm on the diet. We tried swaying in my Sept cycle, but I still haven't O'd and I'm on CD31! Over the past couple weeks, DH has had phone interviews for a job in another state and he flies out next week for an in-person interview. So, the possible new job and cross-country move, coupled with my wacky cycle has put our sway on hold. But I'm sticking to the diet so I'm ready whenever we get to try again. And I'm following the threads and learning as much as I can.
I really appreciate everyone here and the support available. :)
Oh that´s frustrating squamgirl, I hope you get to have an attempt soon!
Thanks for that info about the rephresh/ acijel Zanacal, really helped me to work out what I want to do, obviously worked well for you, really hope this is your girl!
Thanks Indigo - I can't vouch for whether it helped me get my girl but it certainly didn't stop me getting pregnant :D
I hope you don't have to wait too long squamgirl!
Well i did what i think was 0+12 last night but today i have had very bad o pains and im sure that it is conception,,,well never can be sure but somethings happening down there and ive never been wrong?Im thinking that i ovulated today and also conceived hopefully so ill have to rely on the diet and hope it worked as 0+12 i doubt i did...oh well , im happy with how it went and what will be i guess..good luck to you all too! oh i am really looking forward to eating ,and tomorrow is my sons bday ,but i hear about the 2ww and im not sure if i should comtinue for the 2ww or just forget it as i doubt ill do this again if i dont conceive? what about you all are you continuing for the 2ww?is it really neccesary?
I've never heard of someone getting pains from conception before, maybe you just OVed a little later? hope you have conceived a lovely sticky healthy one that implants safely!
I'll definitely be continuing the diet in the 2ww in case I don't conceive this cycle and need to continue next cycle, or I'd have to wait 6 weeks to give it another go. I wouldn't stress about one birthday celebration meal, though, just ensure that at minimum you're skipping breakfast!
I think in the 2ww you can worry less about 'what' you're eating but it's still a good idea to try and keep blood sugar levels low (and continue to skip breakfast like rainbow said) so that you're providing the best environment for a girl bean to thrive in. Good luck!
From this morning temp, FF says that I O'd three days ago (which is what I thought).
Now on to the waiting for the interview, results from the interview and a HUGE decision.
sweetsister- it's my son's birthday in a couple days too. Aren't October babies fun? Hopefully you can enjoy the day without worrying too much about the 2WW. :)
yeah ive pretty much come to the conclusion that it was ovulation pains but they were quite intense ive never felt them that strong..and that means also i pretty much screwed up o+12 AND DID THE PERFECT BOY TIMING! oh well ,i just didnt want to miss it,i dont think timing is that important anyways.Yeah maybe i will continue the diet too just not so strict as maybe the pains were o and trying to conceive and didnt?I know it sounds strange but i usually can feel every little thing and always swear i can feel conception and last night i felt some kind of weird business going on in there,so im still hopeful.
Squamgirl my guys turning 4 and hes an angel hes such a good boy xxoo
I have actually heard ladies say that their ovulation pains were stronger in the months when they conceived. I feel every little thing going on inside too and I thought I was pregnant this last time from the get-go, so let's hope your intuition is right for you too! I wouldn't lose any sleep over the timing :D
Hey ladies..I ovulated today so I'm definitely in the 2ww! Fx to you all. Hope to see you there soon.
YAY mandicane! I think I ovulated yesterday morning but I´ll only be sure once my temp is up, I have a slow rise.
Good luck to you!
Evening ladies. I am pretty sure I ovulated/am ovulating today. Have tummy pains on LHS which is most unusual for me as generally don't have any idea when ovulating! OPK had also gone back to negative. So it looks like I am offically on the 2WW as well.
Thanks for all your advice yesterday on what to use. I decided to give the rephresh a miss but used a bit of sylk on DH (man that stuff is slippery!) DTD and dumped the first batch and DTD again and used the second. Decided not to J&D as actually want to get pregnant!
Ah well, time will tell. FX for a pink BFP for us all soon. x
That sounds like a very good attempt maybeoneday, good luck!
good luck MOD!
