TTC BLUE in October?

Hi ladies! Can I get some feedback about OPKs and when you actually ovulate? My OPK went from positive the day before yesterday morning, to negative yesterday night. I'm pretty sure I caught the beginning of my LH surge, so around 36 hours. In your experience, when do you usually ovulate? I know many do not test past the first positive OPK, but I'm sort of anal retentive about this sort of thing, LOL.

I was sure my temperature would go up this morning, but it was the exact same as yesterday's. Hoping for a temp spike tomorrow morning.

Belleboi,
What is your cm looking like? You could have had a false surge. It is said you ovulate 48-72 hours after your positive opk. I always ovulate the 3rd day of my positive opk.

I'm really, really hoping it's not a false surge. I've already had a few of those on this cycle. Well, 48-72 hours makes me feel a bit better bc I've been reading that O happens usually 24-36 hours after your first positive OPK. I'll just be stalking my temps like usual then.

Hey Ladies,

It's been a while since I've been here, oh like a week maybe? :) I'm feeling discouraged. I am 2 days late and still getting BFN. No signs and no cramping signaling AF either. This may be TMI but I can't feel my cervix, I don't know where she is at! I am urinating a lot! Tender to the touch breasts and craving a big salty hamburger! I don't even know my O date.

Belleboi-Ovulation usually happens around 30 hours after a positive opk but not for everyone!

Beck- I'm hoping you get a bfp soon!
Yogi- how are you doing? Are you in the 2ww?

Beck -- FX for you!

I am still waiting to O. I'm surprised I did not have a smiley face this morning. Temps have been much more even this cycle with the increased vitamin B6 and addition of vitamin C.

hi ladies, how is everyone? Its been a while since I posted, but I'm in my first 2ww ATM. 3dpo to be exact! Is anyone else in 2ww? And do we continue the diet while in 2ww?( I'm doing the IG diet).

Sageviolet- B6 if taken during 1st half of cycle can delay O . My O was delayed big time last month(a whole week), and that cycle I had added new supps B12 and Zinc. Sometimes it takes a little while for body to adjust. FX you get your smiley soon!

Last night, I was taking the trash out when I noticed my Answer pregnancy test I took on Thursday had something different from the other BFNs in the trash. I held it to the light and there was a faint faint BFP. I just thought well it must be run off ink but I went out and bought a clearblue test today and........

BFP!!!!! :holysheep:


DH and I are over the moon! Our 4 year says its a little daddy!
I don't know how to post pictures here but I told DH with a little newborn onesie that says: StormPooper :)

Beckmom congratulations :) I hope it's your little man!!

Fantastic news Beck :)

Thank you so much ladies! Please send some sticky blue dust!! I can't wait to see more BFP! My 1st pregnancy I got a BFP on my AF due date this time it was kind of crazy!

Congrats beck!

Good luck maimai and Sageviolet.

Congrats, Beckmom89!!!

Great news Beck! Congrats:)

Thank you ladies! I really appreciate it! Just throw buckets of blue dust my way please lol!

Congrats, Beck! Great story about finding out and telling dh!

I Oed yesterday and everything was great this cycle until I came down with a headcold yesterday evening. So miserable. Do I still have a chance or did my eggie get fried?

Sageviolet you definitely still have a chance :)
Good luck :)

Congratulations Beckmom!!! Woo hoo :) So excited to see more blue swat bfps! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months.

Thanks ladies! And sage violet you can definitely catch that egg.

Anyone been on the diet for a while? Just something trivial to ask. Anyone not like pepper before but like it now? I have never been one to like pepper (I had a bad experience with Vietnamese chilli's as a young girl). Since being on the HE diet I like to have pepper on my food, along with salt of course.

Oh, I am also in the 2ww. Officially 1 dpo today :D I am stoked because we bd the morning, night and morning after my +OPK :D If that doesn't do the trick I will be concerned to be quite honest.

Boysway I have a real good feeling it's your month :)

Thank you :D I hope so.

Looking good, Boysway! Do you mean peppercorns or bell peppers? I don't like bell peppers and I still don't. I don't like tomatoes either, but I've been eating a lot of tomato sauce since swaying boy. And I will admit I actually sort of like the tomato sauce now and put it on lots of things. But I still hate raw tomatoes -- eww, yuck! lol

Thanks Sage violet. I'm hoping this cycle will finally be a bfp.

I mean ground peppercorns. I sprinkle it on my food. I didn't like it on my food before. Over the years I have begun liking raw tomatoes, it's taken time though.

Boysway- while being on the HE diet my tastes did change a bit. I'm enjoying things I never did before. I'm currently taking a break from the HE diet and I've continued to eat lots of the foods from it and foods I wouldn't normally eat.
I'm sooo happy that you're in the 2ww. I love your updates and I'm hoping for a bfp for you.

Aww thanks Jana :D Yes, my tastes have definitely changed. Besides liking pepper and now preferring to add salt I'm not such a fan of sweets. I also don't crave chocolate or junk through the day.

How long till your dd's operation?

I am holding off on TTC as well, but after being on the diet for a few months..I am having a hard time changing back to my OLD habits. Definitely LOVE breakfast now & I still snack at night. I cook meat a lot more too because i crave it now.

I keep saying well atleaste if we ever have a surprise or oops, diet wise I should be good to go this time around. Lol

Midwest, I don't think I could go back to how I used to eat. I'm just going to be happy not to have to drink juice all the time and the constant eating.

That's so true Midwest!
I find myself eating roast beef sandwiches with lots of cheeses. I eat way more meat with dinner. I eat peanuts and use coconut oil in my morning coffee. So different! And you're right. I no longer crave chocolate and sweets. I didn't even realize until you said that that I haven't had any for a months! Before, I would crave sweets daily. Good observation, Boysway! I still don't eat breakfast though LOL! It was very hard for me to eat it while on the HE diet, I had to force it down.
DD2 operation is about 6 week's away.

Good Luck with your DD's operation Jana I wish her a successful outcome and speedy recovery :pray:

Thank you very much true blue. You're a sweetheart! :heart:

Wishing your dd the all the best for her operation. I hope it all goes wonderfully.

Thank you Boysway, that means a lot :happy:
