Jubilant July 2WW Thread (2)

Honestly, I'm just praying that it's one healthy baby and that it even worked for me! I've always thought twins would be amazing, but now having two girls already, I think 4 would just be so hard. Honestly, maneuvering around NYC is hard enough with 2 kids...just thinking about doing it with 4 (let alone a double stroller) sounds so daunting. But honestly, I'm a big believer in what is meant to be will be...but please let that just be one healthy baby girl LOL! I haven't told DH anything about it and won't even if I get a bfp this cycle because he will literally have anxiety until a first u/s confirming and he's already stressed enough with work. You're right that even if you release two eggs, it doesn't mean that they would both be fertilized. Again, she didn't say that I for sure ovulated from both sides, but I did have a cyst on both sides, so I'm not sure what that means. I went into shock and didn't ask any questions, just said "okay thanks" and hung up. LOL!!!

Thank you Nacire and Lola...I really do hope so. I am so ready to just know if this is in the cards for us. I honestly don't know if emotionally I can take too many more cycles (or months of Femara!)....

Max this is great news!!! And as for possibly releasing two eggs try and see it as just an extra chance to conceive 😀 Absolutely does not mean both eggs will be fertilised! I've released two eggs on a clomid cycle and neither were fertilised. Fx so hard this is your cycle!!!

Ttc-oops I think that sounded confusing...to clarify, I think you would've seen your rise this AM if you O'd overnight or early AM, but you prob O'd in the AM, but after you temped...sometimes it's a slow rise...just my guess.

Thanks, PBN...that's so reassuring to hear!

Congrats maximbella!! That's awesome - I know what you mean about twins - I love twins but eek that would be a lot to manage!!!

Sooo my update is that both my OPKs today (two brands) were DEFINITELY negative... Way lighter than yesterdays. So I'm wondering if yesterday's 2 pm *maybe* positive test was actually positive and we should have already had our attempt :( I don't know what to do! Should we go ahead and attempt today on the assumption that yesterday's uncertain test was positive, and that maybe I'm ovulating today? Or not attempt and keep testing b/c maybe it WASN'T a positive?

ABC: when I doubt my motto is bd.

ABC I would bd asap and then continue with e4d. If that was your pos opk then hopefully you o closer to the 48 side... keep testing with the opks but at least by starting e4d you'll get a chance of having an attempt in this cycle. Because youre not temping we wont know if you've oed or not so if this cycle results in a bfn I would switch to the cb dual hormone digis that test with fmu for next cycle. At least then you can assume fairly safely that o is day after solid smiley. Otherwise just do e4d all cycle :)

Max: I too was thinking twins when I read that! But fx you have 1 healthy baby girl to discover soon!

Lola: Thank you for helping with my charting questions. That totally makes sense because it's not just 1 open circle. I have 4 open circles. I take my temp when my girls wake me up in the morning if it's anytime between 5:30 and 6:30 (If it's before that, I go back to bed) because I thought having a couple hours of uninterrupted sleep was more important than temping at the same time every day--If you have to choose at least.. Is that right? Or should I start temping at exactly the same time every morning regardless of the various times I'm woke up? Lol.

One thing that has me concerned is I've been able to feel ovulation pain every month since having the mirena removed: February-June. This month there were no pains at all on either side so I'm worried that I didn't actually ovulate. And that would be just my luck for a cycle that was going so good.. I've read that stress can prevent ovulation, which day of positive opk was very stressful and emotional for me..

Maxim - awesome news!!! So excited! This has to be it for you ❤️[emoji1317]❤️[emoji1317]

Ok thanks Mommy and Pbn3. Pbn3 - I am actually temping this cycle so we'll see. As of this morning I had not ovulated, so hopefully there is still a chance :)

Ttcblue always temp when you wake after longest slept unless you wake early, dont move and fall back asleep :) Only your temp in the AM will tell if you've oed. Pains are super unreliable :) you may have even had them but during the night while sleeping. O pains can happen before, during and after o

Well I use a different app... I recently downloaded Fertility Friend but haven't really set it up yet! I'll try to do that today and input my temps from this cycle so I can share it :) My temp this morning was 97.34. My post-O temps are usually between 97.8 & 98-ish.

LMSM that is a BIG dip and prime time to see an implantation dip 😀😀😀 this is exciting!!!

Mtolbert looking good 😀 congrats on keeping dh to e3d! How are the opks looking? I would think you wouldn't be far of a pos!

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

Morning ladies,

Just really quickly: woohooooo Max, two chances of conceiving, not necessarily twins, so don't get too fixated on it..though your temp is soooo promising for BFP that something is happening in there for sure ...so darn happy for you! That lining is perfect! Almost 9mm is perfect...mine was 8when Inconceived my girls ;)

Pbn- yep, was surprised how big a dip that was!! It is juuuust over cover line (36.76 for a 36.75 coverline lol)
So anxious to see tomorrow s temp now :P it's kinda given me a bit of hope ;)

Gotta run and be back soon ;)

Omg quick post

Max-Fx for ONE healthy bean! Soo excited for this cycle!!!
Ttc-you're doing it right! Just temp after your longest sleep, so if you sleep through the night & wake up at 5:30 instead of 6:30, then def temp at 5:30! I'm really hoping to see a temp spike for you tomorrow AM! Time will tell to see if you ovulated Fx!!!!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻
LMSM-wowweee! Hope that was your implantation dip, then you could get a BFP 2 days later...which is Fri-yay your time zone right??? 🤞🏻[emoji1374]🤞🏻

Thanks Lola xx [emoji8]

Lola: I'm praying with everything in me that it spikes tomorrow, I really want those 4 attempts! No way will dh do it that many times again.

So when implantation occurs, your temp will dip? Or is that something that only happens sometimes, like implantation spotting?

Prayers that all of you all get your bfps this cycle! It's so exciting in here right now!! Cheering every single one of you on!!

Same to you Mommy2apples!

OK trying to set up this "Fertility Friend" thing... Can someone let me know if I did it right and you can see my chart?

https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6b9cac

We BD'd this afternoon... Eeeek! I got negative OPK's twice today... So I'm thinking yesterday was my positive & am marking it down as such for now. So we'll see. According to my temp this morning I didn't ovulate yesterday so hopefully we still have a shot this cycle w/ today's attempt! I'll still temp & test and if I get another +OPK or my temp doesn't spike in a few days we'll try again.

On another note... My 4 year old proposed marriage to me tonight :heart: I want a girl SO SO much but I must say, little boys are pretty fantastic! :car:

Yay!! See your chart ABC!! Thank you! :)
🤞🏻[emoji1317] I can agree!! That is so sweet! Little boys are their mom's babies for sure! My four year steals my heart so much!

Ttc-there may or may not be an implantation dip, but it is more common in BFP charts! I had a drop in temp at 7 dpo, then temp went back up & I had a positive wondfo at 9dpo...it was more evident by 10dpo. Implantation dips may be a temp drop from approx 7-10dpo. If it's a drop in temp further along around 14/15 dpo ish, then AF is most likely about to arrive!

Oh good thanks for letting me know!

Iwant4 – OMG indeed *does the “woo hoop” excited dance on office chair*
!!!!!

Max – here’s the chart hon ;)
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3abf30/

Lola – I used the calculator TTCblie shared with us a few weeks ago, and if I have implantation today, hcg would likely only be around 5/10 on Friday so unlikely to be picked up – but if I wait until Sunday it should be around 20 so a sensitive test could pick it up – so to be on the safe side, and if the temp goes back up to a good level in the next few days giving me some comfort there *might* be something there, then I will test on Sunday unless I cave before ;)
Trying to be relaxed and not rush to poas ;)

TTC – implantation dip happens both in pregnant and non pregnant charts, though it is slightly more frequent on pregnant charts – but you don’t need one to actually be pregnant ;)

ABC – how cute is your 4 y.o – too friggin adorable!!! I want a little momma’s boy too :D

I see your chart ABC yay!! I'll be watching your chart hoping for a rise! ...And how cute is your 4 year-olds proposal! Mommy's are always their 1st love [emoji170]

Ttcblue an implantation dip could be explained as a secondary estrogen surge which will cause your temp to 'dip' and can happen around the same time as an implantation dip. So there's no way to know but makes it a little exciting if you're not used to seeing one! Some charts don't experience dips at all though and go on to be bfps so it's definately not something you need to see 😀

ABC yay for chart!!! Cant wait to see what happens tomorrow morning! Speaking of which what time is it where you are?

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

Ttc-so I totally just stalked some charts in the ddg-most of us don't have our chart links anymore, but from the ones who did, I found at least 3 with dips! As others have said, you don't have to see one to get a BFP, but fun to speculate!
...AND LMSM-I'm loving your dip [emoji12] I can certainly understand your caution in wanting to test later. I had those OSOMs, which are super sensitive, which is most likely why I was able to see a BFP 2 days later. Can't wait for your BFP...looking very promising!!

9 pm. Mountain Standard Time in western US :) :)

Ok so I'm 8 hours behind you! I *may* be awake still when you temp 😀

An implantation dip is usually described as a sharp dip in temp that almost reaches or goes past coverline. Minor dips are far more likely to be caused by a secondary estrogen surge.

After you used the OSOMs, was so keen to get some - but it's pretty exxy to get them posted over here so decided not to..they were so clear to read too! :D
I do like my dip too but getting knots in my stomach from hoping that maaaaybe it could mean something - just don't want to get ahead of myself - the positive is that it is a clear and sharp dip, so unless it stays low, I guess I do have some chances that it could be implantation ;)

LMSM-I really liked them, but I can imagine them being really expensive to send over there! I'm thinking positive thoughts for you!! Yours is def a sharp dip as pbn described [emoji1374][emoji1374][emoji1374] Mine def wasn't that sharp, but it did correlate nicely with when I got my BFP!

Hello everyone! So I stumbled upon this site a couple of weeks ago after finally making the decision with dh to try for a 4th and hopefully a boy! It took us a while to make the decision but we are so excited to be on this journey again! We currently have 3 girls ages 12, 10 and 5 and figured it's now or never if we are going to add another.

Ok enough with my history, on to now! So I got my first positive opk last night and have been having awful cramping and fullness in my lower abdomen. So I am guessing ovulation was tonight. I don't chart so I guess we will just see if I get a bfp in a couple of weeks ( if I can even wait that long) As far as swaying, we bd'd a lot in my fertile period, we will be conceiving under a male lunar cycle , according to astrology(if I get pregnant) I eat snacks all day! I've been trying to make my diet more alkaline friendly but I am not sure how well that worked out, so I am kmfx that what we did was enough. Honestly my girls were all conceived on random days and we weren't trying so the BDing wasn't happening all that much . probably only once in a fertile window. So I am hoping since we've changed that up it will work!

Eek I am so excited for this! I just need this 2ww to fly by! Good luck everyone!
