So looked at my chart and I got a high on CD 14 and 15. I never O sooner so am guessing I would have peaked CD 16(and this is when I O) as I usually get 2 highs and then the peak. Soooo today is CD 24 (so I would be 8 dpo today).

Then you can test tomorrow?

Test with an opk...

Might just get a blood test if they bulk bill. $$ are very very tight this week!!

You never know! The older you get, the higher your chances of twins.:)

TTC5 its still too early to do any home tests. If you go to the doc to ask about your poopy problem, they may dismiss your blood test request unless you lie and tell them AF is late, even then they will probably get you to POAS first, which will probably come up negative because you are only 8dpo.

It may be that you and your DH are programmed to make girls, but MAYBE with swaying for a bit your tides will turn blue! Don't give up!

Twin boys!! You go girl!! I know what you mean and logically my brain knows these psychics are not always right...but it's very disheartening ya know!!

Like would you get another girl if you swayed, or is it that you won't bother swaying because you are predicted a girl, so then you get a girl? (Does that make sense?)

Three of my girl predictions are already passed because I didn't get pregnant when they said, so I am hoping that means I am in the clear!

That reasoning is pretty good hon! Just can't fight the desire to join the TTC a Girl forum so that I actually have a sucess for a change rofl. I will keep up with my sway....I believe swaying boy is healthier for any gender baby anyway, and results in a quicker BFP!! I hope the readings that said girl were wrong for you and Cara was spot on!!

I had strong O pain 2ish days before I did those tests so could be possible I o'd around CD 14... which would put me due for AF in the next few days.

I hope the Dr agrees to a blood test

5 I would ask for test!

3P1B I am soooo glad he has turned! Honor fooled me with positioning quite a bit, too :). You are just going to love having that little man in your arms!

Flava, I got a couple of DVD's to work out with in addition to some strength training and I am really enjoying them. My fav is a Bar Method DVD... Challenging but not over the top. I am loving how my body is starting to look :)

Hobber I am keeping FX for a blue bean for you.

FX for everyone attempting in the next few days.

AFM - my temps are still low so I def did not ovulate. I am not sure what is going on, I have been feeling crampy the past few days so maybe AF is getting ready to start. It's driving me nuts to feel like I'm not sure what's happening with my own body. In a way I will be happy to be back to my clockwork cycles, AF visits and all!
