NOV Testing

Sorry Momamia, Nann and ttc :(

Good luck mammacass!

Hopper, hopefully you will o soon! Do you usually get quite strong opk test line many days before +opk? Hopefully your boys will get well soon. I know how exhausting it can be when kids are ill often. Our DS1 has fever about every 3-5 weeks :(

I'm waiting for af. I've had the feeling it would arrive soon about three days now. Maybe today? Of course I hope af wouldn't arrive and would be just amazing to be pregnant but I really don't think that's the case this cycle. I'm 6dpo.

I'm just so fed up with LE right know. I just want to eat everything in sight lol. Today we have Father's day and I just wish I could eat all the delicious food and desserts but I'm staying strict.. I had a cheat night a week ago when we had a girls night out. There will be many girls night outs in the upcoming few weeks and little worried I'm going to have too many cheat nights but oh well. I've been on quite strict LE for 19 weeks now. Never thought I could do it when I first found this site snd started to learn about swaying and LE diet!

How exciting mamacass!! Good luck to you and pink dust! :)

Hopper it sounds like ovulation will come fairly soon for you! Hope your boys feel better soon. Mine both have a cold right now and had the stomach flu just a few weeks ago.

Sorry for the bfn ttc2015 :(

2xblue, I hope this is your month! Sometimes feeling like AF is coming can be a good sign. :) I had the worst cramps with my last bfp cycle. FX for you! I totally get being fed up with LE. I've been on it for 25 weeks and I'm so over it (and the exercise)! I just want to eat whenever and whatever I want. We have Thanksgiving coming up soon and I so desperately want to be able to gorge on turkey and pie! lol We must have some strong willpower to be LE for so long!

CD20 for me today and still no O but my temp broke its pattern of being 97.7 for the past week so it's not flat anymore! lol Had a little more pink streaked ewcm this morning so I'm still hoping that maybe just maybe it's a good sign of O (please?!). I bought the CB advanced digital OPKs yesterday ($40!!) and forgot to use my FMU so I squeezed out what I could an hour later LOL I don't know if that still counts or not. It was neg. but I don't know if it needs a "baseline" to go by in order for it to detect a surge in my estrogen and LH first? I used them when we were TTC DS2 and I got a neg. the first time I used it then the next day got a "high" reading. I really need to O soon not just for sanity's sake but also because DH is getting a little restless and can't contain his friskiness much longer. :giggle: Has anyone else's libido pretty much died since going LE?

My cycles used to be regular, like clockwork every 35 days exactly I'd get AF but since my early 20s they've been irregular, even before having kids. Sometimes I do wonder if I could have PCOS tendencies because I noticed when TTC our first, my body would gear up to O a couple of times before being able to do it. I was so close to seeing a doctor about it but just a couple of days before one year of TTC, I found out I was pregnant so I figured it wasn't an issue at that point. I was a healthier weight back then and ate pretty well so I don't know why my body struggled to ovulate.

What is everyone doing to relax? That's my main goal this cycle. I'm naturally anxious and my job is stressful so I'm constantly stressed all day. I started doing fertility yoga poses for about 10 minutes after my morning workout. Any other ideas? I have a hard time shutting my mind off once it starts going.

I get being anxious! Waiting for ovulation to happen is about as stressful as the TWW. I've been watching movies I enjoy to pass the time. I also love to bake so I've been doing that a lot. I send it all to work with DH so I'm not tempted! lol His co-workers love me. ;) It's still a bit hard for me to relax completely though because DH is working 70+ hours a week right now and it's just me taking care of the littles. I think doing anything you enjoy will help like relaxing in a hot bath, listening to music, doing puzzles...whatever it is you like!

So I'm a little concerned.. AF isn't due till Wednesday. And normally I'm like clockwork.. 28 day cycle every month. Well today I had one clot of pink-ish mucous and nothing else.. No period. No other mucous... Just one clump of thick pink mucous.. :( I know I'd only be 2 weeks along- but could that have been a miscarriage??? Since im there's no sign of AF?? :( yet anyways.

Obviously I'm new to all of this. And full of anxiety..

I doubt it's a miscarriage as you'd likely wouldn't start bleeding until after your period is due, though not always with chemicals. I don't think that's what is happening though. It could be that you ovulated later than you thought and it's implantation bleeding or it could be the start of AF. I hope it's the former!

Sorry Nann I have no idea. Sorry for your bfn this month

I'm 13 dpo. AF due anytime from Monday to Friday, I'm v irregular, think it will appear mid week. Used one if those digital tests and it said not pregnant so that seems pretty conclusive! Just bought lots of different tests online so I'm better prepared next month! I was kind of expecting it to not work first time as had been so strict, but with my boys I got bfps straight away so part of me wasn't expecting it if that makes sense! Does anyone use rephresh or lube? Someone mentioned that they can really cut odds of conception?

I think a lot of ladies have dropped using rephresh and any other lubes that hinder conception. One attempt seems to be far more effective at swaying pink. I think using lubes on top of one attempt is just too much and doesn't leave enough sperm.
