And in my case and a few others Robin, i got a solid and then didn't ovulate.. 5 days later had another solid and then DID ovulate. People should be on the lookout for that possibility too.

^^^^ :agree: that is also a possibility - you can gear up to ovulate and then your body just decides "eh not yet" and waits a few days or a week and then actually surges again and O's. :)
Thanks Robin, you brought a smile to my face. I did eat a little cake too 😃.
Katt we are cycle buddies this month. I hope your LP lengthens out. Thanks for the nice words.
I'm 13 dpo today and still haven't tested. This isn't like me. :) I will test friday if AF doesn't get me tomorrow.
Who is still waiting?
I am still waiting, 9dpo!
I'm still waiting too but only 6 or 7 dpo so a while to wait yet. Sorry to hear AF has come for some and might nearly be here for others, fingers crossed it stays away for those waiting. We have to get some bfps this month:fingers:
10dpo & AF still not here :running: this will be the first time since the beginning of the year I have got this far! cramping for the past 3 day & some very mild diarrhoea (sorry for tmi!) Im trying not to get too excited as this is just like when I was pregnant with DS2. Im going to try & wait until the weekend to test as i only have 2 left &I dont want to go buy anymore! Fingers crossed for all of you!
Fx for you foxtrotmama, Cassidy4, Kelbear, and kc15880!
Well, this morning at 10dpo I got what I think is a BFP! It's still a week before AF is due, so I just took it to just get it out of my system. I was definitely shocked to see it because I really wasn't expecting our attempts to work this month!Attachment 33606
FX to everyone else that needs to test soon!!
Yeah Cassidy- that definitely looks positive. Congratulations!!!!
Sorry to all those who the evil AF had found.
FX to those testing soon!!
Congratulations that's 2 lines!!

Hello everyone! :: raises hand:: Two days after we BD we planned on impromptu trip to Disney World at the beginning of December! I will be seven weeks at that point if I do get pregnant. I'm so worried I'm going to be sick and tired for the whole trip!! I'm very nervous to find out if I'm pregnant or not and very conflicted. I don't want to keep up with this diet and exercise anymore but I wouldn't mind trying next month and not being pregnant for our trip. I have a feeling I'm not pregnant. And it's only our first month trying so we will see what happens!!

Hi everyone!!! Congratulations Cassidy that's def 2 lines!! I'm 7DPO according to FF app but I'm not feeling too confident but this our first month of TTC so I shouldn't be too upset if I'm not pregnant this month. I've had some cramping, creamy CF, and left pelvic pain but those could AF symptoms too so I'm going to wait until the 8th to test. I'm supposed to get AF on the 7th so we'll see...
FX for everyone waiting to test!!!
Congrats, Cassidy! That's definitely positive!
Debahlgrim, my first two Disney World trips (we do Disneyland a lot) were at 16 weeks with #1 and 7 weeks with #2. :)
I'm out. AF got me this morning. :(
Huge congrats Cassidy! FX for a sticky bean!
I'm so sorry Fox [emoji20].
AFM- I'm 7dpo with nice, high temps. I'm just happy I finally ovulated! I'm hoping for a decent LP. I'm not sure how much longer we are going to TTC, but I'll still be around until December.

CONGRATS CASSIDY! that is for sure a BFP :)
Hubby fingers crossed for you still :)
Thanks ladies!!
I'm sorry foxtrotmama :(
FX for you XXforhubby and ahorn!
Hi Debahlgrim! :)
Thank you Burakoam :)
Congratulations Cassidy, that is fantastic news!
Sorry AF arrived foxtrotmama, it is always disappointing when she shows:sad:
Fingers crossed for you Kc and xx, hoping you both get bfps this month.
The waiting is sooo hard, just wish the days would go quicker. I am not going to test early as seeing the bfns just gets me more upset than seeing AF arrive. If AF hasn't arrived by next fri (AF due thurs/fri) then I will test as we have our 2 years wedding anniversary and I want to be able to have a glass of wine if I am not preggers. Would prefer to surprise hubby with a bfp instead though.
11dpo still cramping, bloated & so tired! Ive never had fatigue as a pregnancy symptom with either of my sons & I just didnt understand when friends said that they were tired - but my gosh I have been exhausted all day. Perhaps a sign of things to come?
Congrats Cassidy! Great line for 10 DPO
Thank you tfahn!!
So it's been a really weird week, sorry for the book in advance :).
Tuesday the owners of our company came for a visit to inform management that they sold the business 5 weeks ago; They have a contract to stay on for 3 years. Don't have a whole lot of info on the new owners but some of the work will be moved overseas. I think management is safe for a couple years but who knows. The kicker is they said their goal is to get us moved onto the new company payroll on 1/1/17 so that would mean we would have to change to their insurance. Just from what they said about other benefits, they have a non matching 401K which sucks, so I am not expecting there insurance to be stellar.
The thing keeping me going after all this time and losses was having my backup plan which was always IVF; since my current insurance covers 4 cycles, which is pretty much unheard of to be covered. So my plan before last week was to do medicated cycles to the end of the year. Then go natural for a few months to lose the 20 pounds I need to lose in order to qualify for the IVF and then in spring if not pregnant to try an IVF cycle. Those plans flew out the window Tuesday and I felt really down. I joked with my husband about doing a crash diet to try and time a attempt before losing benefits but didn't think there would be time.
So yesterday I had my already scheduled beginning of a new cycle doctor visit with RE. She said basically my next step should be IVF since nothing else was working and asked if IVF would be a possibility. I told her up until a few days ago I would have said yes, she asked what changed and told her about losing my good insurance at the end of the year. She asked if I wanted to try to get a cycle in but I told her I couldn't because I was over the weight limit by 20 pounds. Long story short, she got approval for me from the group to do the IVF procedure even though I am over the weight limit. So I start on birth control pills today to get ready for my IVF cycle in December, starting a low calorie diet on Monday to try and get some of the weight off before the procedure for my own peace of mind to give myself the best odds of success. Fingers crossed this works and I get a BFP since I won't be able to try another round most likely.
Good luck to everyone still trying, I really hope you get your BFP's soon.
OMG Tfahn! This is really good news! I have such good feelings about this! I am hoping and praying that this does the trick!
Well December is the cut off for me. We made an appointment for my DH to get a vasectomy. I want to be done. We will keep trying until then though. I'm feeling more at peace and content with our family. Some acquaintances at my DS2's preschool are pregnant and one had a baby last week. I am genuinely happy for them, and I haven't had the least bit of envy or broodiness! While I'm not quite at the point where I feel like I'm glad it's not me, I am no longer negatively effected by other people being pregnant or giving birth.

Thanks XX, I really hope this works too:) I know with my age egg quality will be an issue so hopefully I have some good ones in there yet.
Glad to hear you are getting to be more at peace about not having another child. Fingers crossed for you until the big V.
:omg::running: BFP at 3an this morning! I am cd12 & I just couldnt wait any longer. 40 weeks on LE diet, 17kg lighter than when I conceived ds1, still bf. I have to say if I dont get my pink bundle I gave it a bloody good try.
I have been troubled with a short luteal phase & super light periods since I started the LE diet. AF has only been 18-24hrs at best & very very light. We had 4 attempt months in total This month we essentially had one attempt at opk (we were BD e4d with hubby releasing after 2), I dropped 1 breastfeed a day (so still bf morning & night twice in toral) from our attempt incase my raised prolactin levels were lowering my progesterone & inhibiting implantation. I also atea slice of pineapple for 5 days after ovulation. I was also eating full fat dairy once a day, fish once a week & eating at the upper end of the LE diet to maintain weight (I couldnt afford to drop anymore).
This month I have felt eerily calm & the least stressed of all our attempt months. I cant explain it. I did eat breakfast a few times before ovulation as I wondered that the prolonged fasting was causing increased cortisol & more stress so perhaps thats it. I certainly didnt think about food quite so much so maybe that was the key. Knowing that I can now go eat a steak for dinner tonight is also very exciting.
I wish you all luck in this next month! Hang in there. I have watched others BFP with some envy & your turn will come. Blue swayers you can have all of my blue dust & girl mums send your pink dust to me! Fingers crossed this is a sticky bean.
Congrats kc!! Yay that's awesome!!
Yay! Congrats kc!! Enjoy that steak!!Quote:

OMG KC- I am so excited for you. When you said how tired you were the last few days I was hoping that was a sign since I was exhausted during the 2WW (even though I didn't actually know I was in the 2WW yet). Your AF sounds just like mine were, no longer than 24 hours. I also did e4d (well 3.5) pattern the cycle I got BFP and I think all ladies should try for that because it seems so successful.
I am so excited for you. You are probably only 3 weeks behind me. I hope you join in the DD forum when you are ready. I am so so excited for you!!!
FX to everyone else!
That is fantastic news Kc, so happy for you. That is a massive effort 40 weeks on le diet, you have given yourself an amazing chance at getting your pink bundle. Hope the next 9 months go quickly for you.
Huge congrats Kc!

So question for you ladies.
I do OPKS and charting. Last month I got positive opk day 14 but my chart never confirmed ovulation on that day.
This month I got flashing smiley and positive opk on cd14. Never got solid smiley. Fertility friend is calculating O at day 13 and another app I have is putting it at cd11. My question is..
Which day do you think I o'd on and is it possible to get positive OPKS AFTER ovulation?
Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk
Robin- FF and other apps use a formula to calculate O based on your temps and other data that you input. It's all a best guess.
Based on your temps, CM, and opk, I would say the range you could have ovulated would be from cd11-cd14. I suspect you Oed sometime between CD13-14. I think FF has it right.
FX and GL to you!!

I'd say CD 13 but I've never used OPK to confirm O.
