I dtd last night two as was uncertain we'd be able to today but the still flashing smile this morning doesn't make sense
Well I've done strip test and its negative. So I can pretty much write this cycle off if I o on cd14. I'll keep opk testing until I get a positive just in case o is delayed enough to get an attempt in e4d wise but that is so so unlikely :(
Twointow I know you check your cervix can I ask how long before o does is go high? This is my 1st month monitoring it so I have nothing to compare to and am basically guessing position and texture.http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/08...94183d8eda.jpg
That is a tough question as each person has their norms but even those can vary cycle to cycle. Personally I haven't found a concrete pattern for myself (which is sad considering how long I have been checking). I have cycles where I went HSO the day before or day of O, and I have others which I was HSO a week or more before O. Sorry I can't be more helpful PCOS throws a kink in the chains for me. The fact you can barely reach it is a good sign though :bigsmile: So... riddle me this, why would you give up on O'ing if you don't O before CD 14? I am confused, lol. Did I miss a post somewhere that would make that make sense to me??
Well, at least one thing is the same this cycle :giggle: Last cycle on CD 9 my CM morphed into this creamy/watery hybrid. Today, CD 9, it did the same as of this evening. I am glad I'll be distracted this weekend! I am going stir crazy waiting for Monday to get here lol. I am so beyond curious! Plus it will be nice to get an u/s where I am not a nervous wreck before it!
Because if its negative today (cd12) its doubtful I'll o tomorrow and if its pos cd13 I'll likely o cd14 which will be an attempt 3 days b4 o so very unlikely I'll catch the egg, gotta remember me and dh aren't spring chickens anymore and he's 7 years older than me lol. Same thing happened June attempt :( so I'm pretty devastated atm but trying not to get to down until confirmed o
I won't lie... O-3 scares me too (((HUGS))) but you never know when you'll actually end up O'ing. Not to feed you false hope but given you have had several days of "high" on your monitor, the OPK you took *could* be as light as it is because you have already surged :shrug: I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!
Thanks two I hope so to!
By the time you get up tomorrow morning I'll be driving so I won't be able to peak and check on you tomorrow until late evening (my time), but please post and let us know what happens. If anything worth seeing happens on your chart this weekend, can you post a screen shot? I'll be mobile (assuming I get cell service in the boonies where we'll be staying as I can't remember if we do or not) so I won't be able to click the link in your signature like I usually can.
No worries and will do :) have a safe trip and enjoy!!
Well remember that during my BFP cycle I didn't get a positive opk ever!! I thought for sure that cycle was a wash! Thank goodness we decided to BD every 4 days, otherwise we would have never caught the egg!! Don't be afraid to switch to that- that is not what caused me to get blue. I got blue due to other factors I had to add just to get pregnant ;)
There is still hope yet!! FX!!

Thanks xx!! I'm just shocked that the cb duals worked like a dream June and July, 3 flashing smileys then solid in June (bad timing was my fault that cycle becos of trust issues with opks lol) had 2 flashing smileys b4 solid last cycle and timed perfect day b4 o, now technically if my opk tester wasn't faulty I would be on day 5 of flashing smiley??? Hence why I went and bought the dip strips which was negative. Pretty doubtful I oed in the 3 hours between temping and doing dip test (although had some uncomfortable cramping around an hour after temping which I mentioned on a post in here two hours b4 dip test) Anyway I'm babbling sorry and even went shopping for more vegetarian food lol. I really hope I'm in for a complete surprise through temp spike tomorrow but doubt it so I'm sticking with diet again as I just cant bring myself to stop swaying with such a sh!?ty final attempt lol :)
btw- I can't believe you're over 20 weeks!!! The u/s pics you posted of ds3 are sooo cute!! I've been following your posts since your bfp lol that's how long I've been stalking this site! Very excited you're giving swaying another shot!!
Not yet going to wait until morning using fmu so there is hopefully no questioning result :)
My temp is slowly sinking each day but still in my post-O range. Hopefully, by the time I temp Monday it will be back to normal. It isn't far off at this point. My CL is typically in the ballpark of 97.6 and today's temp was 97.73, with a 0.2 drop since yesterday.
I decided to go ahead and take a couple OPKs. I don't really intend to take them but this way if something happens that makes me think I need to test I don't have to stress out about not being able to. I also figured out the cup situation so it should be easy to test if I need to. I usually use a disposable solo cup to test. It makes it super easy to collect urine BUT is super bulky and not very strong so one wouldn't survive the packing. So, anyway, I was doing dishes last night and went to put them away and opened a drawer and saw a few of those medicine cups that come on liquid OTC med bottles. So, I grabbed one of those. It is small (gonna be "fun" if I have to end up trying to pee in it :giggle: ) so it will be easy to conceal in my pocket if necessary.
Hahaha good to see you've got it covered for 'just in case'!
Well I don't know what is going on with my crazy body. My temp dipped back down this morning. So maybe I didn't really O yet??? Before I had DS I had a long cycle where I got one positive opk but didn't O until a month later (and I did get 2 days of positive opks at that time too). I really hope this cycle isn't going to be all wacky like that :worry: I've been under a lot of stress with my aunt passing and I'm wondering if that's causing O not to happen. I guess I'll just keep temping and continuing with the E4D plan.
FX for you Pbn that you O soon!
Enjoy your trip Two and try not to think about TTC!
Thanks, I will try :) I'll keep my fingers crossed that you are just having a fallback rise!
AFM- OOOOOOUCH!!!!! My right OVARY is killing me!! I didn't get this kind of pain until almost 3 weeks into my cycle last cycle... maybe I might actually O early this cycle?!?! :pray::fingers:
Pbn3, I hope it becomes super clear in the morning for you!
Yaybaby, I have a "fake" +opk this month too! I ended up oing 3 days after the first positive. My opks went negative and then back to positive in that time.
Two, FX that you are oing early and your u/s will show that on Monday!! :)
AFM, my temp went up again this morning. I am really hoping my RE will do the progesterone testing today!! Attachment 26567

Mommamia - your chart looks so great!! Everything crossed for you!!
Two - can't wait to hear your u/s results! I'll be stalking on Monday. Enjoy your weekend as well and hoping for an early O. My O hurt so bad this cycle on Clomid. Yikes!!
Pbn3 - I got a BFP at O-3 timing in Feb! It ended in a CP, but fingers crossed for a sticky bean for you. ✨
Yaybaby - I hate OPKs. Ugh. Hang in there..hoping O is right around the corner and is more clear for you!
AFM - staying busy at work with my new job...no real good symptoms. Some right side pinching and cramps/twinges, but nothing out of the ordinary. I'm have a progesterone test Monday and I hoping it comes back high!
FX Taytum!!! How exciting!! :)

I'll be stalking you too Monday then!! :fx:
I don't think I am O'ing now, or even in the next few days. I'd be over the moon just to O before CD 18 and I am only CD 9 now. Best case scenario I'd say I probably have at least another week before O but that pain last cycle hit about 5-6 days before O last cycle so hopefully I'll get a repeat and the pain I am having means I'll O much sooner than last cycle. Then again it could just be the fact that I crushed the pills this time so my O pains are just going to be stronger this cycle. I am so looking forward to Monday. My biggest fear is that I'll get there and there won't be any follicles maturing, just lots of little cysts (I have PCOS) but I don't think that will happen since I did eventually O last cycle and because I O on my own anyway (now anyway, I didn't way back when.. I take clomid this round to try to O sooner, increase egg quality and with the side benefit of swaying pink). So, I am not letting myself worry about the u/s. I keep telling myself there is going to be at least one good follicle, maybe even 2, and that the u/s is just a sneek peak inside and nothing to worry about. So far it seems to be keeping me from stressing about it.
Is it Monday yet? :giggle: :wink:
FX for you two! Maybe crushing your Clomid is doing the trick and you'll O earlier. Hoping we'll be testing buddies :) I didn't even know what a fallback rise was until I looked it up just now. Hoping that's the case so I'm not just waiting to O again. I'll keep testing with the opks though and DTD E4D just in case.
momamia - your chart looks great! FX for that BFP!! So what day did you actually O on? If the crosshairs are correct on your chart, it looks like you had a fallback rise, right?
Thanks Taytum! I'm really hoping its just a fallback rise and I've already O'd. Or today is O day. I would much prefer not to have an O-3 attempt, even though I know its perfectly possible to get pregnant with that kind of timing. FX that your progesterone test comes back high!
Congrats smbarnett!
My appt is at 1:45pm ET. I o'd on cd16 this cycle and did indeed have a fallback rise, yaybaby. I got my first peak on cd13. Then it went negative and I got a 2nd peak on cd16 which is when I o'd.

Two, I should get the results tomorrow if he actually does the test.

Yes, I can. Luckily my RE's office is open 7 days a week. So, I can even go back in on Sunday if I need to. :)

Does the CM mean it's coming or that maybe it's here and I'm missing it? My OPK today was totally blank.

I know!!! That's why I haven't changed to another one even though it's a bit of a hike to get to his office.
