Good luck pickles! Lots of BFP vibes your way! Don't do like me and test 4 days later LOL!
Are any of you guys using the CBFM??? I had missed my last testing day last month.....and I started testing a few days ago for this month and it keeps saying LOW, but the lines look just like the ones on my HI days last month!! Just wondering if maybe I messed it up missing that last test last month??? (I ran out of tests last month!) Good thing Im using OPK's as well, so that I can go off of that just in case!!!
Yall arent going to believe this....after I posted this today, my darn OPK's have been neg and all of a sudden I get a + this afternoon! It isnt quite as dark as the other line so Im hoping I caught it early enough! I was aiming for a 2 day cutoff but I guess we missed that! Im really nervous, asI was not expecting to O this early and my OPK's really havent shown much of a fade! Oh well, we're going for it tonight so its in Gods hands now!!!! And on top of it I wasnt prepared with my rephresh and then we went and had lunch today, which I had a salad and was as careful as possible, but still..............this is not as great an attempt as I would like! Please, please, please say a prayer for us!! Im so nervous and worried about this timing!
I had to come on and say "Good Luck P4P!!!". I hope you get your PINK BFP soon!Quote:

My tests have been basically non existent until about 7 days ago. They slowly changed to a light test line for 2 days(Sat. and Sun. and then on Mon it was as dark as the control line...and then Tues morning it was darker than the control line. On Wed it was back to slightly lighter than control, and by Thurs it was very light...today it's almost not visible. Does that mean I ovulated on Tues? Or on Wed? Or on Mon? I'm a little dense when it comes to these things....I've never used them before...LOL
I'm pretty darn sure I haven't ovulated since my youngest was born so I hope that the vitex I was taking has actually worked for me! I took it for 14 days and then I came off of it and seem to have O'd 7 days after coming off! YAY!
(I feel a bit dumb but I hope I didn't ovulate on Mon or Tues......We had unprotected sex on Sat. :suprise::worry::oops: It's been so long since I O'd I really didn't think it would happen so suddenly, which is why we weren't too worried about protection....Oh well.)
DoulaMama--the way I understand it is that once you get the dark line that means you will ovulate within the next 24-48 hours so I would guess that once the line is fading then ovulation has already occurred. I had a dark line for two days then the third day it was lighter than the control so I was guessing that ovulation occurred sometime between the 2nd day and 3rd. Someone else may better know though.
p4p--good luck! sounds like a great cutoff!
on another note--I:sad: had some light light pink discharge today and now I'm concerned. No real cramping. I will see my doc on thurs. Has anyone had this before? I'm worried :sad:but I know it's in God's hands and whatever is meant to happen will. I just hope its nothing to be worried about:nails:.
P4p - good luck, I think the best sways might be when they take you by surprise - fingers crossed for you!
Glittergirl, I had that with first DS and in the end I had a low lying placenta. I know lots of people that have had it and went on to have normal pregnancies so try not to worry.:happy:
Thank you so much everyone!!! Im not feeling great about it :nails:, maybe because I just wasnt prepared. Atleast my pH was perfect before hand....my husbands was a 7 the other day but of course he had a very salty meal for lunch yesterday so I have no idea where it was at by our attempt. My plan was not to add any rephresh after DTD like I did last time, but an hour after, my pH was at 7 :suprise: so I ended up adding a finger full. That worries me too, but I couldnt leave it at 7 and it was already midnight and I was ready to go to sleep! Oh and on top of that, had taken some Senokot yesterday to help my tummy along! I have no idea if that sways! :worry: Just not feeling as confident about this sway, like I was last month.:sad: But maybe youre right Swish, Ive read a few sways that went not as planned and still worked!
Glitter...I had some spotting early with DS2 and luckily it was just some blood that was left outside of the sack. So :fx: for you that it is nothing!! I know youll feel better once you talk to the doctor!
Doula...yes theline on OPK's usually starts to fade darjker and darker as you approach O. My guess is that you O'd Tues, since it was so dark and seeing as how it faded back lighton Wed ws because LH was back down. Thats what I had been doing was usin my fade pattern to do my cutoff, and DTD when it was ALMOST +......but I cant tell how it turned out this month! My OPK and CBFM was a little darker than last night so Im guessing 1-1.5 day...thiings were alot different this month than last! I had a ton of EWCM last month for several days and this month ust a small amount! So I didnt think I was quite so close to O yet! Wondering if its from the Saw Palmetto..:think: Oh well now, whats done is done I guess. Its all in Gods hands......:pray:
Yeah I'm trying not to worry cause it's really really light and mixed with cm sorry tmi-- I've never had a miscarriage so don't know what to look for. I have some cramping but i had this with all pregs. I remember this clearly, almost like af cramps. I guess I'll wait til thurs to talk to my doc. The pink discharge went away so maybe it's nothing....
BFN this morning :( I should start tomorrow or Wednesday. I felt good about our sway, so I'm pretty bummed. Oh well, nothing I can do.
oh chunky monkey, im so sorry. keep positive - you aren't definately out until AF shows. Fingers crossed for you.
