Lauren, I don't think you've ovulated yet, either.
Quinn, wait for your 3 confirmed temps post-O and then go for it... I think you're super smart to think of that, actually!
pbn, without more cm data I'm not sure, either. Enjoy your time to regroup!
I really want a glass of wine, but 2ww :( . Kid drama is exhausting ;)
Bee i know how u feel. I bought some apple ale new thing at the shops and now im wondering if i can even drink them lol. Does anyone drink during the 2ww? I think i would be too cautious and avoid but they sure look yummy

I just had a quick reading with my psychic-medium
"There is no time to waste now, there is a window of opportunity for you girl at this time."
Gahhh. A reading with this lady is what got me even ttc no5. So far she has been supporting the next would be a girl even describing her. Fingers and toes crossed 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thanks mammacass. When I initially contacted her she was telling me not to leave it too long to try (ds4 is 7 months). I was abit reluctant as Ive had my last 2 boys back to back but i thought one last chance. Certainly worth it
Mum to 4 Boys awaiting her Princess
Agreed, I hope you get your girl [emoji166]

So weird. Have been having lots of O pain today on CD5 so decided to take an opk. It's almost positive! WTH? My normal O day is CD15 and the earliest I've ever O'd is CD12 when I got pregnant with DS2. Still spotting from AF too.

Strange essnce. What tests are these? Ive had a positive for a few days could it be gearing up to O? Do you temp at all?
Mum to 4 Boys awaiting her Princess
I still think it has abit of darkening to do. Mine were like that but then went darker when i did actually O. Maybe you will O around cd 12 this cycle
Mum to 4 Boys awaiting her Princess
It's not outside the realm of possibility that you may O sooner than usual... prob not within the next few days, as there is next to zero chance that 5 days into your cycle that your body already has a mature egg ready to pop. However, there is an LH/FSH interplay early in the cycle (this is what clomid affects by blocking estrogen receptors) that causes an egg to begin maturing for ovulation. It's possible that you are catching a glimps of that interplay.Quote:

So I wanted to see, with me actually getting some sleep instead of my usual of sleeping only a couple hours or so, exactly how much my temps are affected by time taken. I was a little shocked. With my usual sleep pattern, differences are negligible. This morning however, I took my temp at 4 am. I didn't get out of bed or anything. Just took my temp, put it into FF in case I forgot it and temped again before knowing what the 1st # was, and then went back to sleep. I woke up again at 6 am and was surprised to see a full 0.2 difference!! So apparently, each hour makes about a 0.1 difference. Given this info, I decided to go ahead and adjust my CD 15 temp by 0.1 because looking at my chart CD 15 just makes more sense as O day (CM dry up on CD 16 as I only check 1x a day, CP was already returning to infertile position on CD 15, I usually O 2 days after +OPK, etc.) The only thing missing was a temp shift because I woke up an hour and a half early that morning. So, I decided to go ahead with the adjustment and now FF shows solid CH on CD 15 instead of dotted ones on CD 16. I can always change it back later but it looks more right to me this way than the way it was and BONUS I am now 1 day closer to testing day :giggle:
ETA: Oh and I got another jump today, which is weird because I had A LOT of cramping yesterday BUT logically I know that there is no way implantation happened already as the egg(s) would just be hatching at this point. *sigh* This is why I hate the 1st week of the 2WW... head games. o_O
Lol. I know how u feel two. Im about to head into the tww tmro and i was already ms Google today.

Lol. So frustrating, ya know? We're ready to get this show on the road!!Quote:

Definitely. After waiting 21 days to O i now have to wait another 2 or so weeks 😯😮
Mum to 4 Boys awaiting her Princess
I know!! That's another reason I always end up testing early! 1 it gives me something to pass the time and 2 if you only test once then the entire cycle culminates into this one moment, and then it's over.Quote:

Got my positive this morning! I knew I haven't lost it yet!lol
I put my 5 am temp in FF. drifted back to sleep and took it again at 6:30 and it was up to 97.49. Two, should I stick to my first temp. I usually temp from 5:30-6:00 so that isn't much help??!!
KINDA wish I would've waiting until tonight for our first attempt, not gonna lie.
Btw, I know my two bottom test lines are slightly lighter but it does that every month. Then tomorrow will be bold as ever but that's when I usually O. ��
As I have said a million times, it's your call BUT here is what *I* think ;) :D I would stick with the first temp and this is why:Quote:

2. You went back to sleep for less than 2 hours. All related material out there says to temp after at least 3 hours... my opinion has become a bit more lax over the years due to my sleeping issues but I still won't consider a temp taken after less than 2 hours solid sleep because you don't enter REM sleep (dreaming) until around an hour and a half. REM sleep is deep, restful sleep that allows your body to relax and "chill" so to speak. Before this point your temp would be affected at varying degrees by your unconscious movements. So, REM, restful sleep is required i my book for a temp to be valid.
3. I don't know what the first temp was because you didn't say but being as you are getting ready to O, a randomly and inaccurately high temp could throw off your shift.
As far as BD, how long do you generally O after + OPK?
That's what I was thinking too, Two! I will stick with my first temp.
I usually O the day after Postive OPK. I may have another attempt tonight, which is very boy friendly ������
I get it! You get to a point were it's like, okay, enough play time lets get it done lol. I was also planning 2 attempts this cycle (E4D + 1@ pos OPK). Then it took a whole other path and ended up with 3 attempts. FX for you! Catch that egg spermies!!Quote:

I think I ovulated last night.... Isn't that what it looks like?? http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09...7a22dbfc53.jpg

Possibly.... ? Only time will tell for sure but you may want to BD asap just in case!! With your OPKs being screwy we are flying a bit blind and it's better for you to BD and not ovulate than do not BD and end up ovulating and missing your window or should I say having already ovulated possibly. It's better to ur on the side of caution.Quote:

I've eaten really badly this week... And even this cycle... And gained weight. I'm not going to BD.... I'm kinda hoping this month is said and done. I plan on really eating right this month and it being the one! That's my hope atleast. My best friend just found out she is pregnant... On accident of course, as the other 2 times with ONE bd during estimated ovulation time lol. Hopefully we have this journey together.Quote:

100% your call! I hope things work out like you hope and you get your BFP next cycle! You are stronger than me! The only way I could bring myself to skip a cycle was if doc said I had to or I had like 6 mature follicles or something, lol.Quote:

Lauren, watch you be preggo!haha I've seen crazy charts all the the and they end up with a bfp.
I agree, two. I was devastated when I thought I had missed my window. I could never skip a month!lol
Believe me ladies , I don't really WANT to skip a month but I feel like I've put all this time and effort in to swaying, and if I throw it all out now I'll feel like I wasted all that time. I've been vegetarian and hardcore swaying for 7 months!Quote:

So since we BD the single time Sunday night after a very long (probably 2-3 weeks honestly) abstain for DH, do you ladies think I'm in good for an attempt this month? I'm thinking I'll actually ovulate around midnight tonight or early tomorrow morning, if I follow the same pattern as I did with DS2.

They are the Babi brand and I like them because they are less sensitive than the Wondfo that I used to get 5+ days of positives on. My Babi brand doesn't usually look this dark till the day before my real +opk, usually CD12. I'll test again this afternoon and tonight before bed. No O pain today so far. And yes I chart/temp. It's in my signature but you have to be on the computer to see it.Quote:

Should I use the Clear blue digital or the Babi?

Can I ask you ladies another question? I'm swaying boy and will probably ovulate cd 14 when we're out of town with my parents. I've been Oing cd 13 or 14. Part of my was thinking I should dtd cd 10, 12, 13 (5 am and 5pm) and do my best to get an attempt in on cd 14. Does this sound okay?

That sounds almost identical to the pattern I had when I convinced DS1.Quote:

PM her for fastest response as she may not see a post, then again a new post might allow some of the other GD vets to respond before she gets a chance since time is of the essence. Good luck and looks like it's going to be a really strong O!Quote:

This is pretty much identical to what I did with both boys :) maybe even an attempt more but that's even better! Do you use preseed??Quote:

Tmi, but I thought I would make that suggestion as well. :) I may have the wrong person, and if so I'm sorry!lol
This will be pretty pricey first purchase but my Babi always give me a positive the day my digital is Postive. I use my Babi until my line gets darker then I double check with my clear blue digital. (That way the digitals last 3-4 months) I get the one with the pink button on them that gives you a solid smiley two fertile days. I do not use blinking smiley. I think that would make me bonkers. Lol! I personally would get both but My OCD personality need that confirmation!lolQuote:

Part of me wants to just stick with that as an attempt and see what happens but part of me is also tired of the diet and afraid I'll lose more weight if I wait another month.Quote:
