And Iwant4kids those lines look nice! I have never taken more than 2 tests or done beta after I've gotten a bfp I guess I've always just trusted it

Iwant4kids this is strange! I can see some pics you post but some also show as a broken attachment. I couldn't see Lola's pic either?? Must be a software thing maybe. My smartphone is pretty old lol

Iwant4kids, I'd trust your temps too. My hcg rose and then I started to miscarry that same night. I hope it goes quickly for you.
Ash, I think you're pregnant too but it's too early to get a good positive.
Pbn, I like your chart! :) I start progesterone tomorrow after I wake up, so I'll have one more temp without it. Then my temps will be meaningless. The day after tomorrow I do my second trigger shot, so I'll be able to tomorrow start testing it out. :)

Woohoo momamia!!! Getting to the exciting part now!! I just know you're pregnant! This is going to be THE best send off ever 😀😀 you getting a bfp will see all the long termers I've been here with get their long awaited babies (I refuse to believe your pregnancy will be anything but happy & healthy). Except for tfahn that is :( I wonder how she is and if she went ahead with IVF or not?
Not trying to be negative but my chart looks pretty ordinary to me :) the next three days temps will either give me hope or prepare me for a bfn. Either way I'm ready ❤ I truly feel at peace 😙
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/519b48
Pbn3 - strange? How long have you been swaying?
Momamia - Yes, I know AF is coming. My CM is now watery and I just know....
Fingers crossed for the progesterone and trigger shot doing their thing!!!
I know some people have shared their journey, but not all. If you're happy to I would love to hear where you're at and how long you've been trying.
My story is short....Joined last year to read about swaying pink. Been on the LE diet since December, but strictly since January. I've lost 5-6kg. Haven't worked out since O day this cycle. Will start LE again today. I'm on clomid for unpredictable cycles. If I get AF today, I start clomid on CD2, which I'm not looking forward to as I can't stand how I feel on it. Then I should ovulate next weekend, so BDing will be in a tent as we are camping for Easter LOL
I really feel for those who have been trying for so long. I admire your patience, determination and love...plus your patience for newbies like me xo
Thanks for your support! :) IMO, your charts generally look pretty similar until the next few days (I hope that doesn't upset you, it's just an observation). That's really nice because then you have a great idea of what's going on before af shows up or not. I think it's a really good sign of consistent hormones. I'm convinced mine are always different because my hormones are off. I'm excited to see what happens for you, Pbn! I really hope you get a bfp so we can be together in the ddg!!! :flowerz:
Wow mommamia your temps look amazing.. FX for you

I agree Ash! I think her chart is looking promising. The next few days will be very revealing. :)Quote:

On and off le diet since then but mainly to lose weight I'd inevitably put back on. Three mc's last year, Jan, June and December. Went mental and almost alcoholic after 2nd miscarriage (there was other things that happened during this time that contributed to my mental state) ended up on antidepressants in October and was sooooo much better by December so I coped very well with the 3rd miscarriage. I've been in and out of these 2ww groups as many times I would end up feeling jaded and somewhat bitter about always being left behind and I HATED feeling that way. So I'd take a break, regroup and get my head back to the right state and rejoin :) I have loved being a part of this 2ww for my last cycle trying, I couldn't have asked for a better bunch of ladies 😚 I feel no jealously, bitterness or anything remotely like that which just proves to me I am finally mentally and emotionally healed and ready to move on whatever the outcome. It's very liberating to feel this way and that is likely where my happiness and positivity is stemming from. I am truly so excited about everyone's journey here and I will have to check in (stalk 👀) until you all do!

PBN3 - I'm so sorry for your losses :( What a rollercoaster you have been on. Your support for others is amazing, especially considering what you've been through. I HOPE WITH ALL MY HEART that this is your take home baby. You totally deserve this, as does everyone. How many boys do you have?
Thank you Iwant4kids and I'm very sorry for your impending loss :(
I have two boys ages 5 and almost 3. My youngest is at that delightful age where everything he does and says is so cute I could eat him all up ❤ my oldest is my shadow and has started prep this year! He is so smart and its wonderful to watch his mind evolve! He's such a sponge and absorbs everything!! All mine and dh's family comment on his memory. In saying all this they are absolute terror heads a lot of the time and fight terribly 😠😠😠 but when they are getting along its just gorgeous to watch!
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/519b48
Pbn3 - you described my boys to a T!!! They are terror heads and fight all the time, but are so super sweet and special all at the same time. HUGS to you and that you are finally at peace with your journey no matter what the future holds for you.Quote:

Someone asked about my chart... My temps did go up on CD26&27, but DH let me sleep in those days and so my temps were higher than normal. I don't think I actually ovulated those days, and along with the awful cramps from Sunday, I think I o'd Sunday evening, which puts me O on CD28 and last BD on CD23.
My story...have two awesome girls, 5 & 7. I always thought we were done, never had any interest in more than my two. I come from a family of 4 girls and loved my experience, my sisters are my best friends, but I always wanted to be able to spend more time with each child, which my mom never got to do with me growing up. Around 6 months ago, a friend of mine that has 2 girls announced to our friends that she was expecting a 3rd, which turned out to be another girl. I was so happy for her, but also realized that I was somewhat jealous...after talking about it endlessly to DH and close friends, I realized that if I'm thinking about a 3rd, I'm not quite done. Fast forward several months which it took me to convince DH to consider going for #3...and here I am, 3 months of TTC unsuccessfully. Praying that we can have another little lady join our family! :HH:
Wow pbn & Iwant4kids, thanks for sharing your stories! Both of you are amazing support to have in this 2WW group! Iwant4kids-the line def does look darker, hope you know one way or the other soon, but you sound like you're in a good place.
Moma & Pbn-you need to be together in the ddg!!!
Pbn-I want to believe that the headache, nausea & eczema are early signs, but is it possible to have such nausea & not a BFP yet? I haven't thrown up, but still feel super nauseated!! Maybe I have a stomach virus?? I tried a wondfo this PM & still a BFN, want to save the frer & my other early test for tomorrow AM.
Skyblue-you do sound patient!! My boys are 19 months apart & full of energy 2 & 3. I posted the pic through the web version, so maybe I'll try posting through tapatalk & maybe you can see it pbn??

Lola, I had nausea for a a fully week before I got a bfp with my last pregnancy, so it's definitely possible for you too!
My Ovulation Chart
Hi! Thanks for asking about me.
I *think* I'm 5dpo today, but that's really just 5 days past positive opk? I don't temp or chart, so it's a lot of guesswork. I stopped taking my BC pills with my November cycle, and last time I did that to try to get pregnant, it took us 7 months. That was before I'd heard of swaying.
My story: I had two girls first who are 23 months apart. They are both inseparable and at each other's throats interchangeably. We were trying to decide whether to do a third and final close after my DD2 or to take a break and do two more kids. We went for the third. It was my long-desired DS, but he had a very severe heart condition. Despite surgery soon after birth, he passed away unexpectedly in my arms at six weeks old. Within 7 months of his birth, we very quickly conceived DD3, who is a joy despite being a sway opposite. :) Now, I'm back for one final baby! I really, really want another son, but I'm at the point where I'd also like my DD3 to have the close relationship her two older sisters have with each other. At four years younger, she's often left out in the cold. hehe
So many big stories here I really hope it works out for everyone.
Pbn I don't think any of us would have guess anything you've been through because of the great support you are for everyone here. You truly are amazing.
Srg I couldn't imagine loosing a baby in my arms that would be a worst nightmare.

Oh wow srg I'm so so sorry :( I have always said to myself when I think I've had it bad that someone else has had it worse and you have just proved it in spades. My heart goes out to you and thank you so much for sharing your story 💔. Gosh I hope so much that you have conceived this cycle and will quickly add that I would consider you 4dpo if your pos opk was 5 days ago. When will you test?
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/519b48
I can't do it too soon! I drive myself nuts! Probably some time next week if I can wait that long. I have just one frer, so I have to be conservative. Haha

Also, thanks for the support. I never really talk about what happened because then I just cry. Even writing it here to virtual strangers has put me into tears.

Srg, I've also lost a son, ds3. He was 15 weeks old when he died. It is truly the worst pain anyone could experience. If you ever need to to talk, just pm me!! :)
I had my boys very young. About 6 months after ds3 died, I fell pregnant with ds4. I got my tubes tied after ds4 (in 2006) because I couldn't bear another pregnancy. It took me a long time to heal. I got my tubes untied in Feb 2015. I've been ttc ever since. My RE put me on clomid in the June 2015 and I got pregnant in July. I miscarried. It was horrible. I did a few months of ntnp. By Feb 2016, I had not conceived again, so my RE did a hsg and said both of my tubes were blocked again. I was devastated. Then I got a surprise bfp in my June 2016 cycle. Again, I miscarried. I then did a few cycles of progesterone support thinking that would solve the problem but no bfp. So, last cycle I started injectables (gonal-f). It's been 2 years since I started ttc again so this is my last cycle. Dh and I don't have it in us to keep trying. FX we all get our bfps but I'll honestly be just fine if I don't get one. I'm ready to move on with my life and spend time with my wonderful boys!! 😁

Wow ladies thankyou for sharing your stories. Sometimes its just the perspective one needs. Fx you get your BFPs xx
Fx for those testing soon.
My horrible antibiotics have caused thrush 😦 not impressed at all. Back to work tonight aswell 😑
Im not sure where my heart is right now with TTC anymore particularly without DH on board. Im going to have to take some time to think. Not sure where ill find it 🤣

Netti sorry to hear you're confused about things at the moment. Give it time and clarity will eventually shine through! Or maybe you'll receive a sign one way or another.
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/519b48
Wow, moma!!! I am so sorry to hear about your losses. You guys are all incredibly strong women!!
Netti, I hope that you find the answers. My DH isn't too onboard for moving further along if this month doesn't work out. I also am in the same shoes....
Thanks ladies! :)
My Ovulation Chart
So sorry netti and max for dh not being on board. I had to get mine to agree because I had to get my iud out. I just try to keep it all low key he knows I bought a mound of tests but I'm trying not to show the emotional side of this to him because that's what usually makes him break and ask me something like "well why aren't you just happy with us" not that I've heard hat a time to two !

Ikwym Ash. The only thing that keeps me sane is the fact we haven't had permanent forms on contraception yet.
DH hasn't booked for anything and neither have I. I hate talking to him about it as it leaves a big dampener on us and DH likes to blame himself for only being able to give me boys.
Part of my heart is saying its HT or nothing. Im not sure how Id feel if I was expecting again and the anxiety leading up to finding out.
I don't know. Hoping there's a miracle out there somewhere...

Wow, thank you all for sharing your stories! I am so sorry for your losses pbn, srg & Moma! I can't even imagine and admire your strength-truly inspiring! All that you've been through & yet you still manage to help others. Fx sooo hard that this last cycle makes all of your dreams come true!!!
Maxim-somehow I missed your story when I posted. Fx you get your 3rd little princess!!!!
AFM, my story is very simple. I always wanted twins, but instead have 2 rambunctious & adorable boys 19 months apart...might as well be my twins :) All of you were here for my for my first CP & I TRULY appreciate the support! It's sad enough losing the hope & dreams of what could've been, but absolutely can't imagine losing a baby further in pregnancy or after meeting your precious baby!!! I seriously would cry the "ugly cry" thinking about all of this right now, but luckily my friend Zoloft helps me keep this under control lol. IRL, many see me as happy & positive...while this is true, I have major anxiety...the what-ifs that keep me up at night. I really don't like feeling dependent on meds, but just a small dose really does wonders! This group is a wonderful way to help each other through the hard times & celebrate the happy news!! :) Thank you all!!
My Ovulation Chart
Moma-thanks for the encouragement! Not happy to hear that you had early nausea, but happy to hear that it is possible! I spoke too soon and threw up 3 times in a row this evening and feel a little better. I never had nausea until about 6 weeks with my boys, so I have convinced myself that it's too early to feel this way & it must be a stomach virus....

I'm sorry your not feeling well, Lola. I hope it is pregnancy related!! :) Ginger pills help me with nausea.

Sounds like a plan Ash. I think you'll have a decent squinter tomorrow morning!! Hope I'm still awake when you test! I doubt it though, will probably be my midnight 😂😂 fx fx fx!!!!
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/519b48
Let's see pbn it will be in about 9.5hours. I'm thinking it's a good thing it's completely negative tonight so hopefully it wasn't just an evap line. I did tear it apart again so I could compare. And an hour after ripping it apart lol there isn't a line like this morning. So scared to test in the am I think I've jumped the gun on this one

Oh yay there's a chance I'll be up then! It will be 10pm here but I usually get up for the toilet about 11pm so if I fall asleep early I'll check in then 😉
