♥ JULY 2011 TTC Boy Chit Chat Thread ♥

yesterday night i got a fade in on the internet opk and today morning a clear +ve on the internet one but when i did a CBE with the same urine it was -ve(no smiley) but pretty dark when i popped it out to see the lines. i tested again at 2.30 pm and both -ve. the internet one still had 2 lines but much lighter then morn.

i am confused....as this happened to me once last year when i missed my O. the internet one was +ve once and cbe never and then my temp went up. my cycles are so long so i do not want to miss a chance

i am thinking of BD tonight which will be 3 days abstinence.....and keep checking opks....if it come +ve sun/mon we BD again....
what do u girls think? should we do tonight or wait.....jsut to mention i am having a lot of ewcm. i cannot really tell checking cervix as it is partially soft and hard on other side....
i will check again a 6 pm.....

is morning test not accurate??...i think my urine was diluted at 2.30. i hold it only for 3 hrs.

Cemas, knowing how long you have been at this, I would NOT fret about timing. I would DEFINITELY DTD tonight if you're having a lot of EWCM. That said I trust the CBE more than the IC, but FMU is pretty tricky with OPKs. The only time I have ever gotten a +OPK in the am (with CBE, which is about all I used) was the morning AFTER my surge already was detected the previous day. Once your surge starts I think it is hard to miss, but I think that catching the initial surge is best done in the afternoon.

So anyhow, I would BD tonight, it might be your O, after all.... you have good signs. And just keep taking the OPKs to see if one turns + the next few days, and if it does BD again.

If you hadn't been trying and were really itching to do a 1 time BD on O I'd tell you to wait, but I think you should go for it and feel good about it. Don't let the EWCM go to waste! It'll keep the swimmers alive for that egg!

Exactly:agree: Plus it will give them all a chance to get into place with your altered sway conditions favoring the boys!

Yep, Cemas, I agree....just start going for it. (There needs to be a humping icon to insert in instances like this.)

3pnb, WHAT A CUTE BABY! :DD: ITA with Babydes and all about not finding out now. Things like cute pics of baby girls always get me. I saw a cute couple with 3 girls today and it made me smile.

Will check in later, ladies, out to have some red wine with a girlfriend. It's a part of my, uh, sway. :wink:

Cemas ITA with the other ladies!!

Thanks girls. Appreciate all the responses. Dh too agrees . We r eager to get pregnant . BTW got another -ve at 8pm....WTH....will still dtd tonight and keep doing opks.

3pnb nice pic...so cute.

Lola enjoy ur sway drink:bigsmile:

And GL TT5 hope u get ur bfp....

Lola I remember WLM drank red wine she said almost every night while she was swaying! And that worked out :-) Antioxidants are good for blue! I didn't abstain fully while swaying.

Good luck Cemas!!!! Hope this cycle is it for you!

TY!!! GL to you too!! xx

Alexis - happy birthday to your little one! I hope you ate the cake and ice cream, one slip won't hurt.

Cemas - vent away darlin', we all get jaded by this process and it feels better to gripe to those that get it.

Kris -woohoo for the 2ww but so sorry Sarah, hope she's back on her feet soon.

14 pages I had to go back! Glad you liked the pics, before the m/c seeing new little faces kept me so excited and hopeful when ttc. She's such a sweet baby, took the girls to visit her today. They lost they're little minds, they love her so much and she's not even ours lol My friend is doing well, lots of pain killers and the plan is to release her Monday. I did great, less affected then I thought but not actually seeing her be born kept a lot of the emotion at bay. I don't know about you ladies but I can't even watch a birth on tv (real not dramatized) without crying so not seeing that kept me excited instead of crazy emotional. Sitting there snuggling her makes me really really hope this baby hangs around. Don't get me wrong I always wanted that but holding that sweet baby punched a few holes in the wall I've put up.
Thanks for your support on my detachment, I've been keeping it to myself because it makes me feel selfish. You ladies are struggling to get preg and here I am not really excited and just hoping I'll still be preg tomorrow. I'm hoping my Thursday appt helps but I doubt it will. Last time all was well at 10 wks, hell as far as I knew all was well at 12wks 6 days. Anyway I love the support here, keeps me calmer and with a little hope that I will actually end up with a baby this time. So tired, off to bed.
