Yes, I have a cbfm, and if I had relied on it alone I never may have gotten a bfp.Quote:

I promised myself I wouldn't obsess over symptoms this time because a BFP is so unlikely, but today I keep having stitches in my left side, and I also keep feeling twinges in my cervix - these were both symptoms I had last time I got a BFP.
I am curious as well....I thought I got a peak on the day I o,Quote:

For those who don't know how the Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor works: you test once a day by peeing on a little wand and inserting it into the monitor. It gives you a low, high or peak fertility reading by testing LH and estrogen. So on your peak day, you are predicted to ovulate within 12 to 48 hours.
I usually test around 9:00a.m. This cycle DoulaMama sent me some opks, so I was using those too. I tested Tuesday morning with the CBEFM and it gave me a high reading (basically saying my body did NOT have the surge yet). I used the opks throughout the day and they detected a surge around 4:00p.m. I continued to test through the evening with the opks and I kept getting positives.
Wednesday morning I tested with my CBEFM and it gave me my peak reading (it detected the surge). Now with the monitor when you get your peak it automatically reads you as a peak for two days, in my case that would be Wednesday and Thursday. I took opks Wednesday morning and the surge stopped around 10:00a.m.
So if I had just been using the monitor I would have thought I O'd on maybe Wednesday but probably Thursday. In truth, I probably O'd Wednesday morning or Tuesday night. So if that's been happening the past few cycles, I've been missing my O by as much as 2 days. Weird, huh?
Ohhh I am confused :(
So I got my peak today and we DTD this afternoon. Hope I caught the egg :S
Now I'm worried, have I risked an O+12????
I'm not sure how those ones work.
Does Peak mean you are going to O or you are Oing ?
TTC5--I'm sorry I confused you! It was confusing going through it!
Love being a mummy--According to the pamphlet, when you get your peak on the monitor you should O within 12-48 hours. But it may be much sooner. That's what happened to me; I actually O'd the day before my peak reading.
I was under the impression it meant you are about to O... usually we would DTD of the evening on the peak but we did it this afternoon instead. FX for us.
Do you temp? just wondering how you know you did O the day before your peak?Quote:

I don't temp, but this time I clearly felt myself O. That doesn't usually happen, but luckily it did this cycle.Quote:

I don't really know! I just got a distinct pain that I've never felt before on one side. It was very sharp, but it also felt something like a cramp. I've felt O cramps before, but this was unique. Also, I had a (tmi, sorry) really big blob of CM, and I haven't had that for months. I guess I did a perfect boy sway, because I decided not to dry up that CM. :worry: This is going to sound weird, but I also have a slight cold, and I think that every time I've gotten pregnant I've had a cold. I don't know why that is.Quote:

I forgot to send him with his supps :( these next 16 weeks are going to be agonizing!!
Congratulations on your BFPs pinkdreams and yuzu!! :D
I'm 7dpo. Been doing HPTs for a few days to see when the trigger is out of my system. Still getting a really faint line though. Who would think I would actually want to see stark whiteness?!
Congratulations!Quote:

I wonder what that means? Maybe your body is just shedding a little dead tissue, but it won't affect implantation? When do you plan to test?Quote:

I'm planning to try to wait to test until Monday, when I'll be 11dpo, but knowing me I'll cave a lot sooner than that. :poas:
FX Bec and Mocha!!
+opt today still
I'm either 7dpo or 2dpo
I normally get 2 days of +opks, had my first one on sunday the 4th and we dtd 16 hours later (just once). on monday the 5th, I had a lot of ewcm and some cramping which I assumed was O pain. Today, I had a little ewcm in the morning and then it became creamy later in the day. I still got +opk in the morning, noon and night and that hasn't happened to me before. now i dont really know when I Oed, I assumed I should be 1dpo today. what do you all think?
Do you temp Koby?
