It looks like it is getting closer! Hopefully you get that OPK+ soon :)
I have decided I will test on Sat Oct 24 when I'm 11dpo. Of course I aways say stuff like that at 1dpo lol.
Lol FX for a bfp 🙏
I just keep waiting and waiting lol. Im wondering if im going to get my positive on cd 20 like last cycle. Im cd 17 today.

Yes af arrived really early, I was only 8dpo then. But my cycle in total was 27 days long and that's about my normal cycle lenght. I just o'd really late. Glad to hear I'm not the only one with weird cycles and light af! :) I'm sure it's because of LE diet and exercise!Quote:

Hopper kiddies have a way of interrupting when you are just about to have a bath/shower/meal/5 seconds to yourself don't they... Ha ha
Hope the OPKs are pos in the morning for you Netti x
2xblue do you think your O date could have been off last cycle as with Oing late you would expect to have a longer cycle as your LP should remain roughly around the same length each time?

When I O late (which is all the time now) I still normally have a 12 day LP. The only time it was shorter at 10 days was when I O'd Cd47.
Do you chart 2xblue?
Do mean if I didn't ovulate even if I had +opk? Sorry I usually understand English pretty well but sometimes I'm confused what somebody means sorry :)Quote:

That's ok [emoji4] I mean is it possible that you may have ovulated earlier than you thoughtQuote:

That's what I've been thinking too but I started to take opks around cd10 and only positive I got was at cd19. Around cd19 I also got some ewcm and mild cramps which I didn't have before in that cycle.
That would be ideal netti!! Everything crossed thats the way it works out :)
lol purple I said the same thing on O day last week. Hoping to hold out til Sunday though. Think that would put me at 11dpo and as long as AF stays away I should pretty much know for sure then.
SO true mammacass!! I should be well used to them interrupting me at this stage lol.
2x I Oed earlier than anticipated last month and had zero signs of it. I usually have a little ewcm and O pains but had neither. But my LP is generally 12 or 13 days in length (funny question and probably silly to ask but anyway - when calculating your LP do you count O day as 1, then O+1 is 2, O+2 is day 3 etc?)
Still having crampy pains, feeling really wet and although I have slightly increased CM its not a huge amount like I remember from DS2 in particular. Today is 7dpo, AF due on Tuesday and planning to test on Sunday. Really am wondering what all the cramping is though, when I go to the toilet I feel like I can't seem to empty my bladder enough. It actually feels like the start of a UTI with the cramping and uncomfortable feeling.
Hopper hearing that your bladder still feels full makes me think uti. Although when I've had that in the past I didn't have cramps so maybe they're unrelated and you have some implantation going on! Do women feel that happening?
I'm cd 8 and just waiting to O, probably cd 13-14. I'm going to my Ob to discuss having the cd3 test done and getting clomid for next cycle. Do you think I should take clomid if it didn't work before or am I just going to keep getting bfns? I ovulate regularly and our tests were normal last time so not sure what the problem is.

Just had a teeny tiny bit of light brown CM when wiping. Really really hoping it's not AF! This is how she arrived last month!!!
7dpo is way too soon for you right? What was your lp last month?Quote:

I just put it together and the only thing I can think of is UTI! As for implantation I don't recall even having felt that, just had niggly cramps but not like the heaviness I have now. Really truly hoping it's not AF so early!Quote:

The Ob said there was no reason she couldn't conceive without it so he refused to give it even though they had been trying for 14 cycles at that stage! She got it from our friend and BAM was pg the next cycle with her second little lady :)
Yeah, even last cycle my LP was definitely no shorter than 10 days (I wasn't 100% sure when O happened but think it did around the 12th or 13th and AF showed on the 24th) Just my cycles having been so long since for ever (well at minimum 31 days but usually 34 or 35) and then last month it was 28 days and now this month IF my LP were to be as usual it would be a 26 day cycle I'm just wondering what's going on with the sudden drastic change. I've been on LE since May so it can't be the diet can it? Really hope it's not AF, I will update later. Hopefully with news of no AF!Quote:

Okay. So i tossed and turned and woke up around 430, had a big glass of water then temped at 5 (temp was lower than yesterday.) then I fell into a deep good sleep from 5 until 818 and temped and got a .8 degree spike from yesterday. (8 is when I normally temp) What temp do I keep???
I wish it were so easy that I slept perfectly all night ;)

I'm upset. I got this on my first response this morning but my temperature plummeted and I had spotting yesterday. It's too late for an implantation dip. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/10...5a99540d87.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/10...4234da96bf.jpg

Mommymachine, your temps are still way above your coverline so I wouldn't worry. Your test looks darker than yesterday's so that's good. Fertility Friend says an implantation dip typically happens between 7-10 DPO so you're within that range. FX for a sticky lil bean!!
Laurenk, I'd go with the later temp just because drinking water can really lower your temp if you temp orally.
I was hoping to hear that because I desperately wanted that spike to happen. Thanks.Quote:

FX things are still just sticking mommymachine xxx
2xblue- my LP can vary from 10 to 14 days. So far it doesn't seem to have a pattern but ive only been using opks a short while

I think you O'd on CD16 with CD18 being a fallback rise. I've read that a fallback rise is always on 2dpo.Quote:

My Ovulation Chart
To attempt or not to attempt?
So the minor changes I made to my diet over the past week (full fat dairy once a day and an egg every other day) must be doing something-- here's today's opk's as of 1pm est.
http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/10...a16610b246.jpg
Two days ago they were barely even visible. My temperature is still low as of this morning but I'm now soft, high, open, and seeing fertile cm. The catch, however, is the timing of our bd. If I go by a true e4d, I'm not due for another attempt until tomorrow morning (last attempt was Sunday am, should have been sat pm but DH fell asleep), BUT, during the week we can only do pm due to DH work schedule, so it's either tonight or not until tomorrow night. So do I go for it tonight and hope it's far enough from Sunday since it'll be like an 8 hour difference between 4 days and not? Or do I hope I don't o until Thursday night or Friday and bd tomorrow night? What would you do?

ksmom, huge congrats!!
mommymachine, fingers crossed you will get bfp!
That's definitely positive... I think I would go for it.Quote:

Has2, why did you made those change? Can't remember. Were you not ovulating? Atomic recommended the same changes for me to make my LP longer. I'm not an expert but maybe I would bd tomorrow as your opk isn't positive quite yet. Good luck!
2x, yes, I am already at max calories and protein, and was still dropping a ton of weight with no exercise, and my body kept trying to o but not managing it, so I figured it might be related to the diet.

Yay mommy machine! Congrats on your bfp1 Absolutely over the moon for you, hoping the dip is just implantation! Are you going to test again tomorrow? What dpo are you now? Sorry, I should know but I'll blame the awful sleep I had last night for the lack of memory lol x
has2, thats a tough one. To me those tests are definitely negative though! Personally I would wait but in doing that you do take the chance that you get a firm +opk tomorrow - BUT O may not happen until the next day or even the day after that! I'm no use at helping make a decision, just go with what you feel x
AFM cramping has totally stopped though I am still needing to go to the bathroom quite often, no more brown CM after that teeny bit earlier and CP is high, soft and closed though I usually check in the PM so its not a reliable result. I'll check again in about an hour at the usual time I check.
If you look at my chart, my temp went down before my bfp as well! Don't let it worry you. I def see a shadow!Quote:
