So I caved and used one of my wondfos today, 11 dpo, and of course BFN. I was naughty on the diet yesterday and needed some sort of inspiration to be really strict today. I'm saving my FRER for Friday, 13 dpo, but for now I'm 75% sure I'm not pg. Looking forward to lots of drinking in Europe and buying myself a new "skinny" outfit to make myself feel better :)
I'd love to see some good news around here... anyone?
Well I caved too and tested and it was a BFN. I can't believe it really. Think we will be taking a break now until after October. This will give me time to get my weight done a couple kilos too.
And I'm out :( AF arrived today.
I'm so sorry Mars! I have that awful heavy AF is coming type feeling today so I'm nearly positive I'm out as well. Going to have a glass of wine tonight to raise my spirits!
Ugh, that sucks Mars! What cycle TTC was this for you? Hope you have a big cheat meal today.
I'm just 5dpo so nothing at all to report! I feel a little nauseous (so so slight), but I think I feel like that every TWW due to the rise in progesterone?? I do feel pretty hopeful for this cycle though.
Sorry mars!! Essence hope its your month ! Xxx

Thanks guys. I'm ok. This cycle was a tad shorter then last so I just want to take a few months to get my cycle sorted and then see how we feel. We have been trying for 8 months which I have to say is strange and making me want to give up. We fell first month for both boys. This month we BD twice in the fertile period so I was sure it was going to be positive. I'm going to buy some opks as well but for the time being it's break time so I can enjoy some parties and get my body back in shape :)
Bluebonnet sorry you got a bfn too. It's not over yet!!! Keep positive!
Essence good luck!! I'll pop in to check how you and the others are going over the best few days :)
Bluebonnet and mars - sorry to hear. Definitely treat yourselves to some yummy food and wine
Essnce - good luck will be keeping everything crossed for you!
Enjoy your break Mars ! It really wears you down... I know where you are coming from, will be thinking of you eat some yummy food and enjoy working out not pinky style for a while!
Bluebonnet hope you are not out but if you are enjoy a big glass of wine and yummy food!! Hope to see you in a due date thread super soon.
Essence rooting for you!!
Anyone heard from girlie dreams?
Xx

Wow this just wasnt a good month for a lot of us was it? I was saving my pretzels and cheese for my BFP but I broke down and bought a box the day AF showed up just because I need a little pick me up before rededicating myself. I also ended up super sick these last couple days so I guess that may have had a bit to do with the let down this month. Definitely dont want to deal with illness on top of pregnancy sick ewwwww
Hi Ladies,
I totally did not expect to join you all this month as I was not planning to start my new and fresh sway after a two month break (June, July )until October:omg:. I had just bought my fertility blend supplements and began taking them with my fish oil caps, and drinking green tea. I am super bummed because there is a lot that went wrong with this cycle and I absolutely did not expect to ovulate because I always have a non ovulatory cycle right after I always stop bcp. To begin with I stopped taking all vitamins during my break, was having unprotected sex, the DH (Sorry TMI) used hand lotion as lubricant during all BD’s:nono: that occurred. I did also try to add pre-seed after I had my booboo but I think that the lotion he put on himself is going to overpower the pre-seed. There is a reason to why the DH did that and this is because he does not know that I started to sway. I did not want him to have performance issues or be stressed over it but I kept my mouth shut when he would add and kept telling myself “at least I added pre-seed”. I also had to reset my CBFM monitor because I failed to take out the batteries which continued to add days to the cycle I last used it on. To top it all off I was loosing some weight which I know does not favor boy sways and from my previous two daughter’s I conceived them in the process of loosing weight. The only thing I did do different this time was not skipping breakfast. So here is what I have so far.

8/15/2014-Friday (CD9-2ndPeak Reading) / Confirmed with Cheapy OPK’s
I expect to ovulate some time today or early morning tomorrow from my previous cycle experiences. I never go past the second peak day of my cbfm without ovulating and this was because I temped for 6 months while using the cbfm. I had highly considered using the morning after pill but I figured it took me this long of trying and still not getting pregnant that I should just let this month go and wait to see what happens. My conscience was telling me how horrible I was for even thinking it so I am just going to suck it up and go team green. I really hope I still have a slight chance of having a baby boy:drama: after all of the stuff that I did wrong. I wish you all the best and keeping my fingers crossed you have your bfp’s with desired genders!:fx:
Yogi - all those attempts will sway blue for you - more than any hand lotion I'm sure!! Plus 3 weeks of green tea and fish oils would have done some good. I really wouldn't worry about the lotion other than whether it's safe to use in an intimate area.
Thank-you Stephk,Quote:

Good luck Yogi! Sounds like a good chance at blue still! Three attempts in the fertile window is great for boys so did you get that many? Or maybe you need to BD tonight and tomorrow too? And definitely stressing ways boy so keep that up along with your googling obsession! That's definitely my issue and I have 2 boys!
Essnce - I'm a crazy googler boy mom, too! LOL
Yogi - sounds like a great attempt for blue, I wouldn't worry a bit!
I'm 12 DPO (?) and BFN and definite AF feelings so I'm 99.9% sure I'm out. I'm actually very much at peace with it. I was considering taking this month off attempting anyways (due to a huge vacation we leave for in 2 weeks I didn't want to be pg for!), so really it's not the end of the world. I'm kind of bummed because DH and I were both quite sick from CD1-CD10 and was thinking that would help the sway, but it is what it is. I'm having a very nice bottle of wine with DH tonight and ordering my favorite dinner (veggie pizza) to cheer me up!
essnce629,
Thank you for your response!! I was able to get 3bd's since my first high reading in a four day window. I don't think I have the energy for more lol. The dhs libido was higher earlier in the week but yesterday was more of a necessity to cover up my boo boo. I pray that it is what you say.
Thank-you bluebonnet22,
I hope you get your bfp this month. I never had any symptoms for all of my girls until a few weeks in. Hopefully this is the case with you. Good Luck 😊💜
The googling obsession sways blue for sure!!
I am 14 dpo today, tested an hour ago, and got the biggest bfp!
I said I wouldn't get too excited bc we had a chemical last month, but last month the line was very faint and never got darker. This line came out right away and it's as dark as when I'm getting a positive opk :)
Congrats Tania! Great news!
Congratulations Tania LI!!!
I hope this is it. Wishing you a healthy pregnancy and bundle of joy 💜😊
Yay Tania! Finally a BFP in our group! Hopefully it's the start of many more!
7dpo for me today and had a temp dip almost to my coverline. Hoping it's an implantation dip as FF says they're most common on 7 and 8 dpo! Staying hopeful!
That's awesome essnce, sounds very promising! Hope this is your month!
Will be stalking this thread essence x

Tania - congrats fab news!!!
Essnce - everything crossed for you hon, sounds promising!!
Thank you ladies! I hope it's a sticky bean... the first of many for this month!!!
8dpo today and temp was back up by .6 degrees! Hoping yesterday was an implantation dip! Really hoping I can hold out testing till Wednesday at 11dpo!
Yah!!!! Essence sounds really promising hope you can join us we need you!! Xx

Haha, so I took a cheapie test last night at 1:30am at only 8dpo and of course BFN!!!! Thought maybe I'd use up my two cheapie tests before bringing out my FRER! :)
Sounds promising Essence!
Congrats Tania! Knew someone had to get a BFP!!!
I posted in a few other threads already, but I did get a very unexpected BFP last night. I've since tested 6x and so far all very faintly positive. DH still believes it "doesn't count" because they are too light. I even used a digital one but he said it's too "early" to count. LOL.
essnce - really hope to see a BFP from you soon! :)
Any line is a positive and counts! Congratulations!Quote:

Took my last internet cheapie at 9dpo and BFN! So much for waiting till 11dpo! I have 1 FRER left, but just ordered a 3 pack that will be here on Wednesday. :) I shouldn't take one tomorrow, but we'll see if I can hold out!
Hi I'm 8dpo today. I usually only have a 10 day lp so I'm freaking out every morning when I check my temp! Haven't had any significant dip does this matter? With my last 3 I noticed a dip usually at 8dpo. My last preg ended in mc in June so I'm between wanting a bfp and being scared of getting one ..
essnce - Fingers crossed for you!!!!
babybeaublue - You definitely dont need an implantation dip to be pg! I never had one with my son (and I didn't temp this month so no idea this time).
Babybeublue,
Did your positive opks finally go negative? I have been super curious because up to yesterday since last thursday I have also still had positive opks.
They started to fade a bit but I never got as far as totally white. I got fed up and stopped taking them lol
Lol 😂 Babybeublue,
Ok so I give up then too.
I couldn't keep doing them it was driving me mad! They were different ones than I would normally use - cassanovum
I am definitely not a poas addict!
Are you temping too?
