Sorry to hear about the arguments with husbands! Steph, happy you got a chance to speak out. Even if you try to not confront him I think that the anger held inside can be as stressing as confronting, especially if you are defending yourself in your head. And the men should just learn that while swaying we are NOT to be provoked. (And if they have anything provocative to say, it has to be served with a glass of wine to calm us down and keep the testosterone low :wink:...)
I am sorry to hear about the arguments going on. I can't believe how stressful planning a baby is. My two boys were surprises. I feel like I have put my heart and soul into swaying for a little girl and I really thought this was our month. But I guess God has other plans. This is my first cycle I have ever been monitored with blood tests and checking all my levels. 5 days ago I got a faint positive. I went in for a blood test and it was negative. I went in for another yesterday, another negative. They told me my progesterone level is very low. They told me it probably did implant but didn't have enough progesterone to stick. Ugh! Sometimes I wonder if being clueless and letting things happen is the way to go sometimes. I feel terrible. I am sorry for the down post. I just needed to get this out.
I hope you all have a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend! It is suppose to be in the 70's here. It should be beautiful.
So sorry to hear this happened to you o18e, huge :hugs: Hopefully you will get your bfp next month.
Woo hoo. My parents are going to look after the kids on Friday night for us :) I sure hope I get my +OPK then :)

I just had a look at my due date should I get a bfp from this cycle and this Friday night. I'll be due the day before my brothers birthday and three days before my eldest daughters 14th birthday. Last two bubs were 3 and 4 days late.

Hope this is your month boysway!!
Good luck Boysway! Hope you get your +opk on Friday!
Thanks ladies :)
Thankfully my pay was a little better then I expected so I now have all I need for my sway. I have also just started another vitamin.
I know it will be after ovulation but, I have also booked in to see a lady about fertility acupuncture (although, I haven't told dh). I must have thought ahead when we took out our health fund as I had acupuncture added on our health fund. Funny thing. I was talking to the lady at the chemist and we got to talking about the diet I am on and I mentioned I was thinking of trying acupuncture. She wrote down the name of a lady and the practice she works for :) Works out well, the place she works at is the street over from my chiropractor.
boysway if you can do it, its a great idea. Given all the things you are doing to sway blue it can sway even more blue for you (appreciate it will be after O, and I do hope this is your lucky month, but if not it will have a blue effect for next time). I have my next fertility acupuncture booked for 4th June, I am hoping to have already ovulated by then and it will help lengthen my LP. I havent had a session since before the holiday as I dont want it to go too far blue for me :)
Great idea boysway really hope its your month xxxx

Argh!!! Crap! I don't think I will ovulate tomorrow! I have been using OPK's and the fade in pattern just isn't there :( A faint second line is there but, it should be getting darker :( Dh and I will be alone tomorrow night. Come on body! Let us catch the egg tomorrow!
oh no! I think you might have had a similar issue last month and it turned out OK? (ovulation wise that is)?
Fairly similar last time. I think the OPK was a little darker at this point last time though. FF is now putting predicted ovulation as two days away instead of tomorrow :( I'll be going out that night and the kids will be home with dh. Let's just hope I get that magical +OPK tomorrow night.
Took another SurePredict test and a FRER tonight at 10:30pm with super concentrated dark urine. Both were BFN and stark white. No shadows or anything! So maybe all 3 of my SurePredicts yesterday with faint lines were evaps or false positives? I'm either 9 or 10dpo. I should have waited like I said I was going to!
:( essnce. As I said in the other thread, let's hope it's just too early.
I have an opk question too... So 2 nights ago (48hrs ago) I got an almost positive after a fade in pattern. Then yesterday morning and again last night I got a very positive. But now I just got another very dark positive?? We had our attempt last night so should we just leave it at that or should I be concerned it was too early as I'm still getting positives??
Here's the pics... Last night is the top one and tonight's is the bottom one. (Take into account the top has dried)

Lol!! My DH just came in and said "you're not seriously taking photos of your pee samples and uploading them onto the internet are you?"
Me: "Ummmm....yes"
😂
Sounds like last night was your attempt but I would keep testing just in case (remember I'm neither an expert nor have I got a positive yet!!)
I'm not an expert either but looking at the pic upside down which is the way I would read the test and control line the second one does look like a positive so your attempt is enough. No harm in keep testing as Steph says.

I had that happen mumof6, ended up Bding again, that was my positive last cycle :) It happens to me every once in awhile..I always assume it means that I geared up, didn't, and then did..but obviously without ultrasound we'd never know. I'm a slow riser too, so I can't even confirm with temps lol takes about 3 days and for me the OPKs are usually only a few days apart, it'll get dark, start to fade, then randomly get super dark.
Atomic says to go with the first +opk. You can get positives for days after. I had 3 days of positives this cycle.
Mumofsix -- same kind of position here. My pos OPK came 6 days sooner than expected. So yes, I BD. BUT it has been positive everyday since. So if it is still positive today/tomorrow, I'm going to hedge my bets and BD again on Saturday a.m. just to be on the safe side. I agree, keep testing and see if it remains positive or if it fades away....I think that will give you a better idea.
Yes, if your pos opk came after BD by less than 24 hours, I'd count that as THE attempt (and would BD again 4 days later, just to be sure :P)
Best of luck! Fingers, eyes and toes crossed for the both of us!!!
(and everyone else too, of course)
and LOL your hubby!

Okay. I'm hoping I'm still in for a +OPK chance tonight. My body is confusing me! Very crampy today and egg white cm, same as yesterday. But, the pic shows yesterday and today's OPK'S. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/30/a6y8ybes.jpg what are your thoughts?

I am honestly very in love with wonfo OPKS. They are very affordable and give great results :) cd25 and 2bds only 1 more to go. I am highly considering a fourth but i am hesitant. For all the blue mommas out there is 4 bds ok for a blue sway? :)http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/30/yjy2ubap.jpg

Yogi&booboo, They aren't as dark as I would like. It looks more like ovulation will be either tomorrow or the following day :( If I don't my bfp this month. I will have to purchase the Wondfo OPK's you use. Your +OPK is much better then any I have had. Don't quote me but I'm fairly sure it's good to get 2-5 attempts is. Maybe check with atomic to be sure.
Boysway,.
Thanks for the advice☺ Hang in there it took me this long after testing for many days to finally have a strong positive. I have tried the pregnancy tests.com opks and they never got as dark as these. The wondfos are also a bit cheaper in price too. I know the feeling that we expect to get our positive on a certain date but when ttc our body tends to be stubborn. Next thing you know you will have forgotten you were worried about the opks. Give it a few more days and I know you will get house positive opk. 😘💞

Good luck Boysway. I think you'll get your +opk in a few more days.
And good luck to you too Yogi! You can both have all my blue dust!!!
Thank you essnce! 😘
I send you my pink dust x's a million ☺
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk
sending you guys (boysway and yogi) all of my blue dust too :)
boysway - good luck with the OPKs hopefully you can get an attempt in today and then if you get a positive again in a couple of days and DH is up for it, you could get another one in?
yogi - yes 4 attempts is great for blue, when DS was conceived we BD thursday night, saturday morning, sunday afternoon and monday night. the positive OPK was on monday so that was 3-4 attempts in the fertile window. As I said on the other thread I am so glad I dont have to do 3-4 attempts for pink, Im exhausted just thinking about it lol
I have been testing with OPKs for the past 3 days and just had negative lines, I havent had a single positive this time TTC. In fact last time the only positive I ever got was when we conceived DS, I didnt get them the other months. Must have been ovulating then as my cycle was very regular, unlike now!
OPK from 3 hours almost +OPK. I'm thinking tomorrow morning or tomorrow arvo.

boysway - better break out the lingerie ;)
a colleague of mine had a little boy 6 weeks ago and she just sent photos, he is so gorgeous, I am so broody!!!
Stephk,
Thank you for your advice! I tested this morning Friday with the clearblue fertility monitor and it finally gave me a peak day. My first positive opk on the cheapy opks was wednesday afternoon so we bd"d that night and the following morning and we are going to try and get one bd tonight and tomorrow. I have noticed that I ovulate on my second peak day though and in the past 4 months I think i have been missing my egg. I agree with the multiple attempts because it truly is exhausting. Hope you get your bfp soon and sending you all of the pink dust possible 😘💝

Wondfo tests are great. I tried a cheaper brand this time around and I'm not sure how I like them yet. They had good reviews and we're half the price of wondfo so I thought why not.
Boysway I would think that will turn positive tomorrow or later tonight!
Yogi hope all your attempts work! 4 is a good number!
We attempted last night without a positive test. I have all the signs and don't want to miss the egg....so just in case we decided to go ahead with the attempt. Hopefully it turns positive today!
Thank you Rosie!
Sending lots of baby dust your way with the attempt! Good luck ☺💕
