Welcome Butterfly best of luck to you. Lassie no i havent heard of the q-tip test, I would assume that may irritate your cervix and could cause bleeding, i am not game to try it, how about you?
Yes Lassie, the countdown begins! :)
I will probably start to test on 10 dpo, around June 1 but I should get spotting first of some kind before that. My problem is I have no period to go off of!
I felt exhausted from Monday night on and I slept several hours then I woke up a few hours then slept again! Tues same deal. I slept a lot but was STILL wiped out! That isn't like me for sure.. I thought it was just impending O..
Then I was crampy and gassy on Tuesday which I guess was 1dpo.
And wOw, another person taking Vitex that is shooting positives probably after O! COOL! hahaha
Every lady needs to come together and say it's happening and then we can get a better look at what it does during our 2WW.
There's no TMI here hon, you don't have to warn, anyone that you are about to type anything like that haha I'm as blunt as a spoon on here.
And yes, I have done that Q-tip test to find blood, I don't necessarily find my cervix just swab around in there to find early bleeding! LOL I'm glad that I'm not alone!
Well your symptoms are promising, and exciting! I've also been celebrating the left-sided pains as well incase I would fit into the Ramzi theory because I checked Baby Center.com and A LOT of ladies have the opposite unfortunately. I can't help but be excited because with DS#2 I felt STRONG right-sided O pains. You just never know. :)
Great to see you on the 2WW board Butterfly.
Wishing you and everyone tons of luck !!
Thanks Butterfly, your such a sweetie :)
I was going to look up about the Ramzi theory - so left = girl? Good sign!
Bit of a bugger about vitex and positive op.'s! I was relying solely on the OPKS's to try and catch ovulation. I dropped the temping, charting and CM/C checking so as to completely cost out stress....
i had positive OPKS on cd 11,12,13,14,15, 16 is a ? but Maybe i have missed O all together?
Hopefully not. We dtd cd 10,11,12,13. In the 2 months before it i ovulated on cd 12/13. before taking vitex though i ovulated on cd 15/16.
If o ovulated cd 15/16 then all that did would have been pointless - and I'm probably not pregnant...
Well its 6DPO - past the 'half way there' mark for testing. Only 4 more days and i will start getting some idea.
Im regretting not temping and charting this month now, yes its reduced stress, a GREAT deal. But it might be the reason i missed ov...
I have such high hope for this month - I'm going to come down with such a crash if I'm not pregnant :(
To top it off DH said no more swaying, he just really wants a baby, so if I'm nor pregnant the only swaying i will be able to do next month is my diet....
Yes, left means girl but I googled it and was lead to babycenter.com and many ladies there had girls on the right and boys on the left. It just made me excited is all :) LOL I was even in the right moon phase, even though I don't take much stock in that either! LMAO.. just whatever looks like girl makes me happy!
As for your OPKS... if you BD on 13, your DH sperm should live like 3 days..I think you caught O!
I'm so excited for you though, I've been following your posts where you talk about symptoms, and remember I said they sounded promising!
I personally think I would raise my stress level even more if I temped and graphed, it's good that you skipped it this month. I think with your first OPK was your real surge then Vitex caused all the other ones.
I hope you get your PINK BFP hon! I'm SO Excited to find out!!! :running:
Thats so encouraging - thank you :flowerz: !!
Im much like you - don't *really* invest too much into things like ions and moon phases - but still search for answers and feel extra content when i find out that I'm in girl territory - apparently it was perfect girl month this month based on the moon - so here's hoping!
Gotta rush and get ready for work - but thanks again, here's hoping and praying that its your month 2 :fx: - there have been so many BFP's this month - i hope lots more of us join the list!!
