I cant believe what I'm writing lol , only on here I feel 'normal' to ask such question !
I'd dtd tonight Lavie! Highest chance of pregnancy is when you dtd 1-2 days BEFORE O. You want the sperm waiting in the fallopian tubes when the egg drops and it can take up to 12 hours for them to get there after dtd.
I guess I'm just 'hung up' on the frequency theory but maybe I'm just a bit confused. So if we dtd tonight it's is still a one and only attempt right? And does it matter that DH has 'released' 3 days ago instead of 4 days ago?
No dtd tonight as haven't yet had a positive opk. On cd18 now, it's usually today :(
Hi girls, just checking in with you all. I'm still around. I think I'm either 9 or 10 days DPO. I took a FRER this morning and could have sworn I saw something, but it was just a gray shadow. Confirmed negative with a digi. I took a cheapie as well and it was so negative, that you could see a white line where the dye should have been. I know I'm still early, but I I would highly doubt I'm pregnant anyway since our timing was crappy. Although I really hope I am because I've fallen off the wagon majorly this week.
Hope you're just too early for a BFP 3girl! Good luck!
I'm the same 3girl 10dpo and off diet badly! I was thinking I might test today as had a temp jump this am but that could have been all the Presecco from yesterday! Good luck all x
Back now and catching up!
me+4, primal and essnce - yay for your attempts and good luck :)
mum - being off the diet for one week when overall you have been on the diet will not affect anything, I think you should do your best between now and O and then attempt. Whats meant to be will be but one week in the grand scheme of things isnt going to ruin anything.
lavie - I would have DTD last night when you got the positive OPK - what did you decide?
kitkat - I am the same except BD when we feel like it and then again at pos OPK. I dont care if that makes it 2 attempts. The past 2 months have been technically 2 attempts and I havent gotten PG so cant be that fertile to get PG from one attempt anyway!!
3girl - hopefully you will get a BFP in another day or 2.
Lyagirl, hope you get your positive very soon!
We had our attempt last night so I guess I'm starting the long 2WW
Feeling lots of pulling pressure on my left - hopefully this means O is imminent and will catch the egg this month
Hey Stephk, our posts must have cross over! ;-) x
yes they did lol - glad you made your attempt, fingers crossed for a BFP for you in 2 weeks!!
hi ladies well im waiting for my positive o, im abit confused though, i understand the whole theory that you get a girl by having sex before the egg releases so the male sperm as died off but why is it better to wait for peak ovulation on the tests, i thought it would be better to have sex up until the day of peak so theres only girl swimmers left but my plan says to only have sex on the day of peak o, can anyone explain :( im worried im not gonna get preggers this month if i keep waiting x
Its because when you get a pos opk isnt when you're ovulating, it means you're about to ovulate and the lh hormone is at its highest. So when you test positive it only means you will ovulate in the next day or two. Hence why we do the deed on a pos opk to get in there before ovulation. Hope I made sense?
Hi guys!
Well it appears I missed ovulation this month. According to my BBT I ovulated on day 12.? We DTD on day 10 and on day 13. This whole thing boggles my mind though bc I used the cheap test day 12, and it was a slight positive. I ran out and bought the expensive tests to confirm and used it that day 5 hours later and it said negative. My theory is that I missed it ? Argh.. I am attaching my chart. If you guys can look and let me know what you think.. but it does appear ovulation happened.
4f4e86 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
I just hope and pray that we DTD on the right days.
I am now 6 DPO according to that chart.
If you ovulated on cd12, an attempt on cd10 is perfect. You want 1-2 days prior.Quote:

agree with bluebonnet - sounds like perfect timing to me!! Fingers crossed for your BFP in a weeks time :)
When is everyone going to start testing for pregnancy!?
I know some tests let you test as early as 5 days to expected period... that would put me at this Saturday! That would be 11 DPO for me.
I may test then...
Butterflywarbie, the ONE attempt at positive opk is stressed I think because that timing is best odds for getting pregnant with less "swimmers". It is not because of the x surviving longer than the y. That timing theory has been debunked. :)
Robin I would try to hold out as long as possible before testing just because I started testing early the past few months and then had longer to be discouraged before AF started. I'm really going to try to wait until at least only 3 days before AF or maybe longer. Easy to say that now we will see in a week how I feel haha! A test will only show positive 5 days before if implanted really early.
Mom, I guess nobody can assure us of anything. Nature says it's own word in the end but we might be lucky and I still think God sees this forum :-)
I do believe you should try this month, next month and every month...I'm sure you will get your little girl in the end. Your effort is incredible.
Thanks MyByC. 💜
I've been SO far behind, but just sending some June pink dust to all. I'm on cd2 and having a b*tch of an af this moth. Lol! Figures. Hormones all over the place and family drama (involving my pregnant-with-a-girl sis-in-law and other nosey family members) added to the mix. Yay. (Sarcasm alert)
Me? I am LE'ing with vengeance, and taking my frustration out by exercising like a demon for 1 hour+ every freakin day. Take that, bfns! Take that, blue dust!
(Did I mention how hormonal I am?)
Girliedreamz you crack me up!!!! Xxx

Hey girls, I tested this morning 11dpo-ish. I got a major squinter on a FRER, and a negative on a digi. I know FRER's have been giving false lines lately, so I'm not getting my hopes up. What do you think? Attachment 19392
ETA that I enhanced the photo.
I kinda see two lines! ! Ahhh so exciting! !

I'm planning on testing next Tuesday as that's when my period is expected to start. I'm planning on staying busy until then so I don't obsess, doing a bunch of Diy projects to make our new house home. I made an embroidered personalized quilt for both my boys so I want to start making one for the next baby.

Would u say I'm getting close to pos opk? I know the line has to be as dark if not darker than the control line, but do your lines get darker as you get closer? Im cd 20 and was getting worried I wasn't going to O

3girl looks positive to me!! Congrats!
Arimethia - good luck, hope you can stay distracted
Layagirl - very close hope you get your positive soon!
What stephk said!!!
Layagirls, this evening or tomorrow you'll get the positive 2 lines..
That was about 7pm test, could it change in a few hours?
Yes lyagirl it can...that's why sometimes people miss their ovulation...it depends on how fast/slow an lh surge you have. Good luck.
Repost, sorry if you saw this twice!
Thanks girls!!!! I'm still not believing it until I see a darker line or a digi confirms. I just impulsively took another FRER and didn't see anything. I think if I am pregnant the hormone must be sooooo low (either that or it was an evap). I hate waiting!!!! I'm following all your stories and have my fingers crossed for you all!!
FX for you, 3girl!!
Arimethia, praying hard you get your bfp this month! You so deserve it, girl.
I broke down and had tofu with pasta tonight for dinner. So freakin good. Protein my sweet, off-limits lover...
But that was after 2 hours of exercise today, so I'm feeling okay about it. As a side effect I'm getting slim (from all the running) and tan (from doing it outside!). Not bad. Not pink baby awesome yet, but not bad.
Work it girlie dreams work it!!

Well, nothing on the FRER today. Yesterday must have been a false alarm. Just waiting for AF to come now.
