Spinning, don't lose hope, my girl...9dpo is still very early!! ♥
Congrats to the BFP's out there! Let's keep them coming!
i think you should go for it, you have been on the diet wayyyyyy to long for a week to hurt and if AS says go for it i'd trust her (not only is she super smart but she is routing for us and wants you to succeed so advice will be in your best interests)
ht is a mjor undertaking and such a roller coaster if you can bypass it all the better, little pink ones always turn up when least expected and you've paid your dues x
SHELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! OMG!!! You posted right after I sent Lassie her Congrats! WOW that is AMAZING woman! CONGRATULATIONS! You just gave me SO much hope for this month honey you don't even KNOW! We had one BD attempt 2 days before O because we were moving to our new house and all and here you are 5 days before O. AHHH I am so excited for you!!!! AHHHHHHH! Ok sorry. I'm calm now, lol.
Hey beadin have been thinking about you, good to see o finally showed up, did you get another opk+ to go with your chart???.
I've always said i don't do temps as the one time i tried it my chart made no sense, well....... i just checked yours (as i wanted to check you'd o'd) and it looks just like my weird chart from my last pg. I had a plus opk early in the month, my temp then repeated for 3 days followed by a small dip, i then had a major dip later on in the cycle like the one that you had for o, which i thought was o (turns out was implantation) temp stayed up after that and i gave in temping at cd27 (6 days after the dip) as i was getting married the next day, we got confirmation of pregnancy 3 days after.
Either way, fingers crossed for a bfp this month but i can't help but wonder if something unusual maybe happening for you
I will be 9dpo tomorrow. I have been thinking if I should test Friday with a IC (no other tests here)? But my luteal phase is normally pretty long (about 14 days).
Eh. Not really sure I actually did. FF thinks I did cause of the temp drop and increase, but I never did get a positive opk - despite checking numerous times a day. :(
I also remembered that my cervix is retroverted, so I have no idea what I have been feeling. LOL.
Oh well. As long as I ovulate next month and everything gets back on track, I'll be happy.
Sounds like a VERY good sign for you!! I napped lots when I was preggers, too!!! ;) Crossing fingers and toes!!! ♥
I am trying not to get my hopes up!
hmm weird..
my good friend never gets a positive OPK. And she has ovulated every cycle she charts..maybe yours was short?
I imagine you could still tell if it was open or closed?
Now I can, now that I've figured out what direction it's facing. LOL. I'm such a dork.
I really hope that's the case with me. I'm so glad to know about your friend...it gives me hope :)
I know what you mean...it's hard, you don't want to get your hopes up, BUT you have so much to be hopeful for. Well, I'm saying a little prayer for you tonight when I go to bed. I hope you get your BFP in the next couple of days!!!
Spinning - I really hope you get your BFP soon!
Beadin - I hope you get to test soon. What CD are you on?
:fx: for you both!
Can I come and join you all today? I know I'm early as it's O day for me today :giggle: Crikey, it's going to be a long 2 weeks!!!!!
still BFN this AM! ugh!! I just used cheap internet tests I had.. trying to remind myself I am only 10 DPO!
my chart jumped twice too..hope I wasn't wrong about O...

blimey spinning thats a complicated chart but o looks very clearly pinpointed, good luck to you, are you getting any symptoms, i am 8dpo and am getting lots of cramping last couple of days (was worried about a second o as mine was really early this month so just checked my cervix and its really really tight but there is a little blood - sorry tmi).
feeling like i am going insane watching my body this closely though i have no idea what happened with the boys we caught first month of trying and i never tested til i was 4 days late (i was really regular then) so it was just for a formality anyway. Since we started all this months ago i've had every symptom under the sun in the 2ww (including a 9 day late period) but always a bfn.
what do you have at the moment (kids wise)
I know right! ugh, I am hoping it is right about O. I also never tested until late with my other pregnancies so now I'm making myself nuts.
I have 2 boys, 3 1/2 and 20 months. I also recently lost a girl at 20 weeks :/ , still born. That was a surprise preg as we were starting to sway but not trying yet.So now that we are trying I don't know whats going on. DS1 was a surprise , DS2 I also charted etc for months before I could get pregnant. I'm trying to pull up my old charts with DS2 to compare my luteal phase. I figure that if my progesterone was 10.4 on Monday theres no way I could have Ovulated ..sunday...so it must be right. I'm trying to tell myself at least I O'ed and my luteal phase isn't short as long as it lasts a couple more days as long as I'm not pregnant! With DS2 I didn't even test til 18 dpo. I don't know how I was so relaxed.. I think I had almost given up at that point...
On no spinning thats really sad, is there any reason why you lost her?
There are a few moms on here with late miscarriages recently, its awful i can't imagine how hard it must be to loose a baby let along one you've wanted for so long fate can be so cruel
I didn't realize there's been a few, that's sad.
Nope no reason at all that we know of ..which makes it really hard. I was extremely sick with her pregnancy, had hypermeisies, lost about 20 lbs ( I only weigh like 130 normally) , I had to take zofran (and I am very conservative with meds..) but I had 2 ultrasounds, one at 10 weeks because of some spotting , everything looked perfect, and one at 15 and everything looked great again, my mw heard the heartbeat strong a couple weeks later, then at 19/20 weeks we couldn't find it. She must have passed just a couple days after we heard it. I never felt much movement. But we just thought maybe I didn't feel her yet..who knows...they ran some tests etc, but they said most of the time theres no reason they find
my heart really goes out to you thats awful and no reason as well must be really hard we had problems early on with my first an i was so scared we were going to loose him it was horrible.
wishing you an easy healthy pregnancy this time around xxxxxx
FX for you, spinningmadly. I hope you just had a later implantation!
thank you shellbelle! how are you feeling?
(((( Spinning )))) <--- just cause. ♥
So I am clueless where I'm at in my cycle. No idea when I should even test. LOL. I'm just gonna keep dtd until I get AF or enough time goes by that I should probably test. lol
Woooops... I should have been in here ages ago! I'm 9dpo...
Spinningmadly, I am feeling very pregnant. :) Thanks for asking! Feeling sick and tired is so comforting, because in the past when I haven't had symptoms, it's scared me.
Beadin, I was looking at your chart this morning and wondering if you might just test in a few days. It's so crazy-looking, it just makes me wonder.
Suregena, your chart looks great!
I know, right??? Last night was the first time I got real EWCM! I thought, there is no way I could be O'ing this late, but I woke up the DH and made him do it!! LOL!!
beadin- I think that is the perfect strategy! your chart is a bit crazy! what day do you usually ovulate?
Just wanted to let you ladies know that the First Response Digital Ovulation tests SUCK.
I sent DH to the store to get more digitals, but they were out of my regular CBE with the smileys, so he got the FR instead.
You have to start using them on "day 5 of your period or spotting." AND they have to be used within 30 days from opening.
"Do not start if past DAY 5; wait until next cycle." :(
That's fine for NEXT month, but I want to know about RIGHT NOW. UGH!
ETA:
They actually say "This test cannot be used for contraception (birth control) or gender selection." LOL. Seriously?
I'm glad to know that, Spinning...
I talked him into returning them to Walmart. They're doing me no good right now and if I do end up getting pregnant this month, that's $42 bucks down the drain.
Now I don't have any though, so tomorrow I guess I'll be heading to Target!!
I hope the confusion and chaos of this month pays off big in the end and is worth it. I'm just so tired.
Aww...thanks Spinning!!! That means so much!!! ♥
Last night... at 8dpo... I found one cheapie I forgot about and in a moment of madness, I used it! Sheesh, I'm a crazy person because now I'll have to buy more.
However, a very faint line appeared pretty instantly. The past cycles when I thought I saw something, I really had to stare really hard and likely making it up. I can see this one without trying, though it's still light. But it makes me hopeful...
We'll see. Not getting my hopes up but it was mildly convincing, especially at night with non-FMU at 8dpo...
Surgena: If it's a pink line of any shade, then it's a BFP!!! Congrats!
BEadin: so frustrating about the OPKs. Those instructions make no sense at all. Hope the EWCM means you are going to O finally. How frustrating. I have really long and irregular cycles so I know how you feel.
Beadin - thinking of you hun ! Hope this one is the month for you xo There HAS to be a happy ending to the crappy times you've just gone through, and that happy end should be a BFP! Where there is hope, there is life, and thats where miracles happen :)
Suregena, sounds promising, wait till 10DPO if you can and use a FRER with FMU.

Sorry about quality and lighting.... these were from midnight and it hadn't even dried yet.
on 2 of them i can certainly see something!! Apparantly the trick is to invert the photo, and that makes it show up fluorescent green so its easier to show up, apparently only real lines (i.e., not evap lines) show up. I'd do it for you but have no photo editing software, perhaps one of the other girls does..
hope this is it for you - this month seems to be the month for long timers to get their BFP, i got mine, cinns got hers, i think shell has been trying for a few months swell and she got a bfp this month too
:fx:
