Haha I feel the same! How long have you been trying?
I also have an appointment on Friday to confirm, so I guess it will all feel more real then!!

Congrats Twin6boy and kaseybaby! Very exciting news!
TigerLily - I had heard a flight around ovulation could cause twins but I never had heard the "reason". How interesting!
Ladies I had a full on cheat day this weekend (ate chicken nuggets! OMG!), but I've still lost too much weight this cycle (5 lbs in a little over a week). I'm worried the rapid weight loss will delay ovulation and I'll be gone on my trip already when I ovulate. It's so hard to be strict on LE and still maintain your weight properly so you ovulate. I guess I need to add in my sugary crap today but it kills me to do that. Fingers crossed my body still manages to ovulate on time this month!

I want to see if I did this right
Bluebonnet22 Good for you. The swaying diets can be so hard. I really hope you get your BFP and that it is which ever gender you are trying for.
Ok I was going to wait but Kaseybaby thought I should test again so I did. I will buy more good tests today so I can retest again Friday. And again when my period is actually due LOL. The hole 2ww is so stressful but for me the after is going to be just as stressful. My last pregnancy ended at 18 weeks. The baby just died. So hert breaking it was finally the daughter me and my DH had been dreaming of.Attachment 21509
9dpo been having aches and pains, cold feeling in stomach, acid reflex, food avoidence, sensitive to smell, and tired.
I tested at 8dpo but it was to faint to take a picture but I will test again at 10 or 11 dpo. I will be to busy to test over the weekend with a house full of people for a birthday party.
AF is due on Sunday so I should for sure when I come back online Tuesday!
I see a line twinboys! (Glad you managed to upload it!).
I am sorry for your loss, I hope that is a BFP and the girl you long for. X
Thank you Lovesunshine.
My symptoms have been sensitive smells, Constipation and gas (TMI) and stuff nose and Itchy skin.
I knew gas and constipation were symptoms but when I looked up the nose and itchy part I found those are early pregnancy symptoms too.
I just hope its not that the egg was fertilized but doesn't implant. I have had a dull ache on my left side for days. I'm hoping that means the womb is making room for baby!
Yay twins!!! I don't have time to catch up on everyones responses so sorry if I missed any announcements,but I wanted to drop in and let you know I tested again in the AM and I am definitely pregnant. I am SHOCKED!!!! I have been trying 2 months this was my first clomid IUI cycle
Twins....you cannot get a positive pregnancy test if the egg didn't implant. It is impossible.
Well still no signs from me. Another BFN yesterday and I've been temping for just over a week now, with no discernible pattern as yet. Fingers crossed I've not lost to much weight to O. I am still on my LE with no brekkie but I am making sure I am having the 25% fat as I wasn't always up to that lower level. I've a really food oriented social weekend approaching and I'd LOVE to be able to just eat what I want so really hope I get a BFP by then!
Me again. Struggling with my food tonight as DH is out! REALLY want to just scoff everything in sight!
I am CD 14 and no +Opk as of this morning. Last month I got my pos opk at cd13! Weird. I think this diet is messing with my normally good cycles! ugh!
This is probably a stupid question, but, will you still get a period if you do not ovulate? Or does no ovulation=no period??
My opk's were getting darker Monday and Tuesday, but never positive. Today the test line is much lighter. Had a lot of ewcm today and cramping. Did I ovulate or did my body change it's mind??? Today is cd16.
Yes you can have annovulatory bleeding but it won't be a typical period. If your period was very normal then you likely ovulated.
Good to know, thanks Rosie!
Tarasue the same thing is going on with me. They were almost positive last week but then started getting lighter and now I am starting to see ewcm. I am almost positive I am going to get my +opk within the next few day. I would keep testing if I were you. From what I read in another thread, atomic says this happens because we can have various lh surges which can cause positive opks at different times in your cycle :)
How many times a day are we supposed to test? I've been doing it twice daily, around 11am and then again before bed. I am using the wondfo strips.
I was so excited yesterday because the opk was getting darker and was sure today would be the day. Now I am getting discouraged that they are getting lighter...
I'm behind on the thread and will catch up later, but in the meantime I have an incredibly rude post and run. Is anyone familiar with indian food? We just got an Indian food restaurant in my city and I have no idea what to order when I go for lunch today . Which is the most LE friendly (I realize they are all cheat meals :)):
Ghobi Aloo (potato & Cauliflower), Saag Paneer, Malai Kofta, Mixed Veggie Curry, Lentils, or Veggie Biryani. I was hoping some of you UK ladies eat Indian food a lot and might have a good suggestion on what to order. :) Thanks ladies!
You're right, we eat lots of Indian food here! Basically if you avoid the protein-rich veggie options, i.e. lentils, paneer cheese (so saag paneer and malai kofta) you'll keep the protein down. However, you will undoubtedly go over for fat as they cook everything in ghee. I would choose a mixed veg curry and rice, or a veg biriyani, and then have either a bread (naan, chapati, roti) or a potato dish (like ghobi or saag aloo) on the side. Feast time! x
PS Where do you live? :)
I have never had Indian food , no help here:/
Thanks weezie! I'm so excited to try it :) I live in Texas. We eat a ton of Mexican and Asian food but hardly any Indian. Hope you are getting along ok without dh and enjoying some G&T!
It's yummy! I love making my own using oil sprays so there's hardly any fat in it. I love Mexican and Asian too though. I'm a bit of a foodie really so what I'm eating atm is completely unlike anything I've ever eaten before so hopefully will get us a pink bundle whenever I ovulate! DH is back now so we've a lovely weekend coming up with lots of time together :) On Saturday we'll be having Indian and drinks and on Sunday we've an afternoon tea at a hotel in London, so I will have to be very careful with how much I eat as I would normally just keep asking them for more of everything It's kind of like a posh all you can eat really! x
bluebonnet- Get the saag! It's my favorite Indian food. It looks absolutely repulsive but it tastes really good :)
Tarasue
Twice a day is great. I poas more because I am anxious to see a positive opk..somes days are darker and some are lighter. Today is almost the same for me. I already poas twice lol. This cycle is driving me crazy :(
yogi- I'm sorry that this cycle is being so strange for you, has this ever happened before?
GL Bee!
Thank-you Tigerlily,
Only when I was off bcp and when I was taking green tea capsules :(
Welcome Bee & Good Luck!
Did you end up ovulating later when it happened or not at all?
I did Tigerlily :)
That's when I used to temp and each month I would confirm ovulation :).
ok well then good! anytime now :) I liked when our cycles were matching.
Hey guys. How's every body doing?
Me I had extremely light pink spotting on Tuesday morning but nothing since so I'm hoping it was implantation spotting. I'm going to test again Saturday.
Congrats Kasey baby and twin6 baby! Blue bonnet your Indian meal is making me hungry! Good Luck honey when are you testing/ attempting? Xx

Hi everyone!
I am glad to see we are finally getting some BFPs! I am currently BDing every four days and waiting for pos. opk- it seems to be later this month. I am thinking the diet is making things wonky. If I don't get a BFP this month, I am going to get bloodwork done to make sure my hormones are good. My cycles and opks are not consistent.
FX for everyone waiting to test and for sticky beans that already have tested!!

Welcome Bee! GL to all the ladies still attempting/waiting to test - XXforhubby/weezie/yogi/TigerLilly - I really hope this is our month!!
My Indian food yesterday was fab! They had a vegetarian sampler plate. It had something with cauliflower (it wasn't fried and it was orange? seemed semi-safe, but probably had ghee on it), a little saag paneer, rice, and something cold with carrots, and a chickpea curry thing? It was all so yummy, so I tried to only eat a couple bites of everything. I did eat way too much naan (2 big pieces!) which I know is super fatty, but it was so yummy :) Hopefully my cheat meal at least brings on ovulation !
Today is CD12 for me, hoping I ovulate CD14 or CD15 since I'm leaving CD15 and will be away from DH for a full 5 days. My OPKs seem to be darkening so hopefully that means I get a positive one tomorrow ! I plan on testing on Halloween (around 10-12 dpo) and either drinking or gourging myself with candy depending on the results :)
Cd 18, still no +opk..... Tuesday it was darker but not near positive, wednesday I can barely see the test line, Thursday darker again but no positive, today barely there...
What's up with my screwy body! LET LOOSE THE EGG ALREADY!!!! So I can move on to the treatorous TWW!!!
:hair: Tarasue same here, I saw a good amount of EWCM yesterday and figured it would be darker this morning but still not too dark. I guess me and you are experiencing the same symptoms. :fx: we ovulate soon. This is just getting Ridiculous :nails:
Thank you Blue!! Good Luck to you too. I hope this is your month!!!! :)
Well AF is due in 2 days... got a bfn yesterday. I still have symptoms but not sure what is going to happen. I am busy today until Tuesday so no time to test our anything. I will be back tuesday to update everyone.
Since I do not have time to read past post I hope everyone is doing great and wish you all the best.
