Couldn't agree with you more :-)
Sunflower your not out till af arrives!
I'm still waiting for postman to get here with FRER. I'm so annoyed as I've been waiting in all day. I've got two small pots of wee waiting because I've wanted tea but don't want to dilute the wee.
GETTING REALLY PEED OFF NOW!
shutterbug lol "peed" off:) clever to save your fmu too:) hope mail gets there soon.
sunflower- def. not out till af arrives! does your af usually arrive like clockwork? aren't you late now?
implantation happens between 6-12 days and then hcg will be readable a couple of days after that so it really does take awhile and people that get earlier+ just means egg implanted earlier
so still fx for all of us. would be soo awesome to see lots of + prego pics here:DD::princess::pregnant:
Officially jumping in here as I am 2dpo now. On the good side my boys were both conceived after only 2 months and this is my 2nd month trying for a DD but am sure this diet has lessened fertility ( plus "advanced age" ). Also not testing forever because I caught the poas fever last month and blew through all but 1 of my ic's. I am hoping not to have to order more. Thorz- you will not be the only one cheating tomorrow!
thrown the FMU away now as it's too late for Royal Mail to show up. Stupid people! It was ordered through amazon with our prime account which means we pay for next day delivery, and it hasn't shown, so Amazon will be getting a strongly worded letter too!
Thorz, I totally agree with you! i have been getting symptoms very early on. My boobs are getting very sore and I feel bloated. I 'think' i'm 8 or 9 dpo. I am testing in a couple of hours, but im so nervous. I know this may sound strange to everyone, but I sort of hope im not preggo:(. I totally messed up my sway! big time! so I am afraid i will have GD. Im so sorry to sound so negative...Quote:

shutterbug- do you live far from a store??
For some reason there's no store that actually has FRER and only have blue dye ones, which I always seem to get evaps from.
It doesn't matter now, and truthfully its probably a blessing as its another day to hopefully get a stronger result, or at least more of a chance of getting a result if I am pregnant.
I think I'm in 2ww officially today, for sure tomorrow. Not nearly as excited this time, kind of getting worn out on the ttc thing so maybe that will help.
I'm 11 dpo. Still bfn! Sigh.
Hugs...I have a love/hate relationship w 2 ww!Quote:

I found this, and the info is similar to 3 other sources I checked, there are over the counter fixes I could start now like b6 or progesterone cream that lengthen luteal phase, but they recommend seeing a doc because they can make sure it's nothing else, and also prescribe stronger things like clomid (which conveniently sways pink). I can't get into doc in time for this cycle but will for next.
My LP is 10 days (never charted before so not sure if this is due to TTC pink or not) but that's the bare minimum they list as 'average' (10-17days, normal is 14). I might try some progesterone cream to be safe. The catch is you have to continue both the cream and VIT b6 and wean carefully. Which is annoying!

Any suggestions?
Evening ladies Im about 5-6 dpo boobs slightly sore and thats about it - been shoddy on the diet !! not good !! Really dont think im going to get BFP this month and so will betaking december off as my diet is already slipping and I dont want to have any regrets. will get back on it strong in January and attempt again in Feb time :-(
Well, I got BFP, today. Very nervous!. I think its boy #3 for me:(.
wiszhing = congrats hunny im sure its a girl for you - fingers crossed hows many dpo are u ?
Congratulations Wishing!
How many dpi where you today?
Thank you ladies! Im in total shock im pregnant, since i felt i didnt ov at all this month. When i tested My digital opk tricked me into thinking i ovulated way earlier rhan my previous cycles. So i dtd the very next morning after first +opk ( about 20 hrs ltr) thinking it was too late (total deep penetration and me on top release) next couple of days i was eating like a maniac (which WERe signs of ovulation for me) i may have ovulated 3-4 days after dtd!! Boy zone!!! My boobs hurt couple days after dtd too. SO i think i may have ovulated on time like previous cycles, which makes me 8-9 dpo. Which makes me nervous again, since i tested w/ same sticks for previous pregnancies about same time frame ( 4-5 days before expected AF and got same faint line w. Similar symptoms).
Mum23, i even scheduled a drs appt for a clomid prescription for next cycle. I dont feel positive about my sway, at all. Nothing went the way I planned it too:(.
Congrats wishing. That's awesome news!!'
Congrats wishing, mum23, I also will be taking dec off, I am only gonna try til April, as I will be 40 next year!!!!
Thanks Atsaukina! Idk. My cycle was super long this cycle bc I'm breast feeding my 9 month old son. Who knows when AF will arrive!Quote:

Congrats wishing!!! Don't be too hard on yourself, the majority of girls are conceived in this world with no sway at all (that is what I have to keep telling myself too)!
Congrats wishing! Btw atomic doesn't believe timing sways, just that frequency does, so if you only had 1 attempt, that's TOTAL girl sway (abstinence) especially if dh didn't release for7+ days prior!!
Congrats wishing! Hoping you get the princess you are dreaming of.
Thanks meeks! I know what u mean. but its the position, my cheating on diet during week of ov and T levels :( oh and dummy dh abstained only 5 days. You see why im so worried? Oh well, at this point i cant do anything to change things around and hoping for a healthy baby.Quote:

GL to you
Totally get you, but remember position doesn't sway either. 5 days abstain is pretty good, atomic had a girl after a 4 day abstain. Remember on the positive, you've been doing the diet for a while right? One week cheating isn't bad if you generally stuck to it otherwise. Also, you won't have been taking multivitamins either, bar the usual folic acid and girl sups, and no doubt you were loosing weight prior to the week of cheats. You have still got lots going for you!Quote:

Look at it like you have done more to sway than with your other son(s).
Xx
So Im glad you brought the timing thing up.....I have been thinking that what I thought I was supposed to do, was actually a boy sway!!! I think I have read so much that my head was spinning, especially since there were some contradicting things in other sites. Anyhow, we DTD every day from AF until the day after O (11 straight days, husband was in heaven)!. Is that a boy sway????
Not at all that's perfect girl sway!Quote:

So basically both frequent release (fr) and abstain methods sway girl. Fr is 7+ days of releasing one or more times a day, BUT you don't attempt with the sperm until after 7 days. So he releases daily, or you bd daily but start straight after period so when you get to your fertile window it's been 7+ days of bd-ing already. If both of you are older, 5 days would be ok, and only once a day, because sperm count for men over 35 is already low.
So your plan is perfect fr girl method.
FYI Abstain is ideally 7+ days then doing it once, as soon as you can after +opk, ensuring your attempt is in the fertile window. Abstain isn't recommended if dh is over 35 for sperm quality. Abstain has been known to work quite well even after 4-6 days abstain, so if you muck up, don't worry, atomic says of all sway elements, frequency sways the least, so it's the one you can afford to muck up.
Timing or boys is regarded as bd every 2-3 days.
Oh good that makes me feel better. DH is barely 32 and I just turned 34 so we aren't quite in that window yet. Swaying is stressful, I never even truly ttc with any of my kids, just stopped taking birth control, but obviously if I keep that up I'll for sure get a boy since right now I am 3 for 3 in the DS category, so something needed to change. But because I never tracked anything before, I have no idea what frequency or timing we used the last 3 times.
Totally hear you, we never tried either, I feel lucky for that, because trying and TTC girl are both a huge stress, although I try to pretend they aren't to keep t levels low, which is stupid because really, I doubt just trying not to stress actually reduces anything! HahaQuote:

And the more I hate the girl sway, the more I think it's working, because it goes against all my natural tastes and tendencies, and I really believe everything I used to do was super of friendly. Like, everything! Diet, sups, exercise, all the things I ate and did we're total boy things.
That sounds exactly like me too! I guess we'll know soon enough, I might POAS sunday if I get my courage up, but starting that too early gives me unnecessary stress too lol!Quote:

That was great!!!! Thanks for sharing that website!
GREAT! Think all this fr has resulted in me getting a urinary tract infection! Now I don't know how to get rid of it without swaying blue or taking lots of cranberry, which would impact implantation! Damn damn damn. Have to go to doctor tonight now. At least I can ask about the luteal phase thing. Am only 1dpo, egg not even fertilised yet possibly and I had to take a vitamin c tablet and a cranberry tablet. Normally would have taken more but don't want to affect the gender during fertilisation! As it is I'll stress about what I took!
Oh man, so sorry, I hope it all works out! Let us know what the dr says!
