Aww Suregena, thinking of you!!! ♥
I feel the exact same way..
Hi ladies, im back after having a chemical :sad: not sure what will be going on with my cycle yet, hoping to get pregnant again this month if I can.
Aww bythe******, I am so sorry...♥
I'm sure this doesn't make you feel any better, but it does sway girl if you get pregnant again soon.
Not sure what to do about frequency since I have no idea when I might ovulate, we did abstain last time. Not sure if I should just bd every few days then maybe compressed fr when I get my +opk. Opinions?
And I haven't started the opks yet, how soon after a miscarriage can you ovulate? Its been 4 days so far, do you count the bleed as cd1?
bythe****** - I'm wondering about frequency too. We did FR last time but DH found it hard with the licorice root (i'll get him to start back on it today) and will only do it if we BD which i'm sooo not up for right now. So thinking maybe abstain with a couple of attempts? No idea if or when i'll ovulate though.
Kraisy - Just wanted to let you know you are in my thoughts!
Wishing and praying that you get to see those 2 lines very soon.
Where there is hope, there is life, and thats where miracles happen :)
:flowerz:
Good luck lassie:)
I live in NSW too:) I will be trying in dec this year for a girl. My husband works away so it's the first time we actually can start. Can't wait to hear what your precious bundle is:)
AF started no baby...
Booooooooooooooooooooo. I'm sorry this is Kraisy.Quote:

I am going to start doing opks on Sunday, I think. I am getting tired of waiting!
oh I am sorry Kraizy.
I really hate all this.
I am 10dpo today and I tested this am. Bfn. I just don't get it. This all used to be so easy for me. We dtd 1x on o-4, 2x on o-3 and 1x on o day. 4 times in the fertile window. No j&d, no rephresh, only took zyrtec like 2x, no LR for dh and he did not fr or abstain. I really thought for sure I might get pg this cycle.
I am just so frustrated. I am not getting pg and I am letting everything go.
Its so hard to read other's sway's who only dtd once and dh took LR and lowered his count and they did j&d and used rephresh and cytec etc. and they got pg on attempt 1 or 2.
Here I am letting it all go pretty much and I am still not getting pg!!! I feel like either I am getting old (which I am only 30!!!) or doing all the ht messed me up royally.
I am just so lost with all this -- I can't even get pg, no less have a baby girl. And once I do finally get pg, if I get pg -- I am calling it now...I know after all I have been through and this 2 year long road of disappointment and heart ache I have traveled, I will have another boy. Just watch...I know it, cause that is my luck.
Aww....P4P, I feel you...I really, REALLY do.
It's going to all work out...and the longer it takes the more chance it will be a girl.
I'm so confused right now with my cycle, I have no idea if I'm coming or going. I just hope this craziness pays off in the end.
Thinking of you...♥
pfp i feel your pain and i know how hard it is.
Don't be too discouraged yet, in my bfp cycle i had a massive temp drop on 9dpo, and negative hot so i thought i was out - i even started a thread "what can i do to finally get pregnant"
10dpo - negative hpt
12 dpo - faint positive..
you are definitely still in the game this month :)
so you are not out yet...
also try and remember that this is the first month that you have let it all the sway go, it takes the average trying couple 6 months to get pregnant, and this is the first month that you have had 'proper' attempt..
I'm the same age as you (turning 30) and its easy to feel like that old, but in fertility terms its not..
Try and stay positive, and remember that the longer you are on the diet, and the longer it takes to conceive, the more likely it is to be a girl...
so sorry kraizy :( i know there are no words to take away the anger and hurt, but you are in my thoughts xo
Pray~ I am so sorry, but like the other ladies said at 10dpo there is still a chance.
I honestly think its not happening for me and you bc of how bad we want it. I think I need to go adopt a baby girl, bc then I will have a BFP. I'm joking but I'm not!
sorry kraizy...:(
suregena your chart is looking nice....
Thanks Ladies -- I know h&d -- what is going on with us??
11dpo today and still bfn. If I get another bfn tomorrow I know I am out.
Next month I am just going to be crazy strict on the diet (only rices 2 x day) af-o, lose weight, and take the supplements. That's it. I'm not going to have my dh fr or abstain - in fact I will try to dtd every 3 days to keep his count healthy and start bd-ing every night cd12 thru ovulation day (usually cd16 for me). Maybe take one zyrtec every other day cd11, 13 & 15.
I just can't miss a prime day of dtd, I need all the swimmers i can get and I think dtd 2x in one day for him really lowers his count too much.
The only supplement I don't take is vitex. Do you think that would help me to get pg?? I know I am ovulating and I have pretty regular cycles -- o cd15-17 every month.
Any news pray?
Dannikins- love the new pic!
Bythe******- sorry about the chemical. That happened to me in march. Sucks. Hope it sways for you. U could do compressed frequent. But I really would not sweat it. It sways such a small percent if it all. I've dropped it all together.
BFN again this morning -- 12dpo. I'm out for this month.
That ok I guess. I am going to do a killer sways this month -- relying strictly on the diet. I truly believe that is the only thing that sways any amount. The diet and the change it does to your body, lower calories/fat/protein and glucose at and around the time of ovulation. All the rest of things do is kill the sperm and I need those swimmers to make it to my egg!
We are gonna dtd daily from cd12-17. Thru o. I usually o on cd15, 16 or 17.
Taking supp's and crazy strict on the diet. I feel like without rephresh or zyrtec and lowering dh's count and dtd daily, I just gotta get pg next month...I gotta.
Here's praying for a pink bfp!
Hi Ladies, would love to get your thoughts on what to do this week. I have totally stuffed up frequency and timing and now don't know how to approach. I am CD13, due to O CD16. We have DTD on CD11 and CD12 due to DH being away for 2 weeks before and me not be able to decide what approach to take. Now with only a few days to go till O not sure what to do. Abstinence is out with only a few days left but should we just keep BD and hope for the best or should I get DH to release for the next week days and then BD at 0+12. Changes of me falling pregnant at 0-5 and 0-4 are pretty slim so maybe an attempt at 0+12 with 5 days release before hand is OK. Please any thoughts would be great...
Wanted to add have been good on diet not great, but good. Worst thing is I have had a few wines of the last few days and probably a bit much protein.
Sorry to the ladies whose month it wasn't, hoping next month is yours....
Just got a + OPK at 6:30 am!! So asked DH to come home a few minutes early during lunch :) May try an attempt then, and also tonight! Both lines are really dark, although one is a slightly lighter, but I will still try as I have a lot of EWCM this morning and a pain on my right side - has to be something! Anyone have any advice how to dry me up in the next few hours. I know I should have a little, but I think I have too much right now :( Will take a zyrtec...
LO- I wouldn't wait for O +12. Most can't even truly figure out when that is and are dtd at O anyway. So why not just continue dtd. There's also a chance you get a bfn this month and I wouldn't try to make that more probable. As I've learned I wouldn't waste amonth ttc.
Sosa- a Zyrtec would do the trick. Why the sad face. This is exciting. Good luck!
Pray- so so sorry about the bfn. have you considered the SMEP? Even the dtd daily may work against you and to answer your question I think what is going on with us is how badly we want it to happen. It's like the ladies who adopt then they have a baby, or accept its not going to happen. Then wham their preggo! This is our month fx...
Our attempt will probably be this evening. I got a faint pos opk last night.. and it is starting to get darker. I am getting pain/cramping as I normally do around ovulation. We were going to try last night but DH took LR late that evening and was having "issues" if you know what I mean. I took it as a sign to wait, because i OPK wasn't really positive yet but I was having all the signs I was going to ovulate. I am going to test throughout today and do our attempt tonight. Hopefully DH will be good to go!
Has anyone else's DH have issues with BD on LR ? this is something we have NEVER delt with before normally DH can go anytime!! So I am hoping this means LR is working!
Just got my positive OPK!!! Tonight is the night. Praying that I get pregnant with a healthy baby girl!
Good luck navy wife!
Best of luck Navywife! Hope your hubby manages okay :giggle: our poor men!
So cd 4 and I talked to my OB and she wants me to have another HSG, so that would be about 7 years since my last in which I got pregnant the 2 or 3 month after having it. It was an awfully painful ordeal and I swore I would never do it again, but one of my tubes was blocked and they cleared it with the dye, so maybe it's blocked again? My doc is giving med to take the night before to open up my cervix and pain meds to take just before the procedure, so hopefully this time will be much better than the last. I have a cervix that likes to hide and my OB even has trouble finding it for my annual exam. Well enough about me...oh, she gave me Clomid again, so should I take it? Been on it quite a bit in my TTC journey...???
Kraisy- I had the hsg last month. No pain whatsoever. But could b bc it was normal and my cervix doesn't hide lol!
How many months did you take the clomid ?
Good luck Navywife! We are on the same day! FX for BFP's!!
Last night I had a faint line, this morning at 6:30 much darker, had an attempt at noon, and will probably try one more time tonight. My DH FR this morning before work, attempt at lunch and one more attempt late tonight, this is all ok, right?
I am using these test strips that I buy in bulk at Target and it appears like both my lines are really dark with one a smidge lighter, however, I have had all symptoms today with lots of EWCM when I first work and right OV twinges...Anyone had something similar with their OPK strips?
Sorry I haven't been around much, ladies. I've been trying to lay low and not be on the boards too often, to try and relax and not feed into my swaycession. ;) We just finished our first month swaying, and I'm now in the 2WW. Only 1DPO though, so this is going to be a long wait. :sigh: I don't feel confident that I'll get pg this month though, because we kept our sway pretty strict since I still have some weight to lose. I hope I'll lose a bit more before we attempt next month, and we'll probably be dropping some things then too (not sure what yet).
How did the attempt go Navy?
Hi everyone! I wanted to join you on this board but I will not be doing an attempt until next month (hopefully). Just got ppaf back end of August and O'ed last week on cycle day 26 so hopefully after af shows up we can have an attempt. Been vegetarian since June and started doing the diet strictly last month right after af showed up. Still breastfeeding so trying to maintain LE diet and keep my supply up.
So glad to join you ladies here!!!
I believe 4 months this last time, then I took a break a few months. But if my tubes or tube is blocked, they that would not have helped me at all. So I started it today cd5-9.Quote:

I noticed some came out then. Went to bed. This morning I woke up took an opk and it is still very positive. I am debating on whether to do another attempt tonight. What do you ladies think?? When I went to the bathroom I did notice a lot of his stuff that was sitting in there all night come out. I am praying some got up there. I am just torn on whether to do another attempt.Quote:

I definitely think you should do another attempt tonight. :agree: Atomic says that the minimum amount of time between using RepHresh and having an attempt should be 8 hours, but she still likes to see even more than that. I know you only used a tiny bit 5 hours before, but I'd still think you're good to go with another attempt tonight. And the great thing is, the RepHresh will still be working for you tonight (since it lasts for 3 days), but it won't be so close to your attempt that it would prevent conception from happening, kwim? Whatever you decide to do, I wish you lots of luck!! :)Quote:

----------------------------
I also wanted to add in that as long as you feel good about the other things in your sway (diet, especially), I would definitely go for it. Also, did you do FR or abstain? If you did FR (and your diet was good), I'd 100% say do another attempt tonight. However, if you did abstain, I would just leave it at the one attempt.
We are going to go for another attempt when he gets home in about 2 hours!
