Sounds good :luck:
AF was due yesterday and still isn't here. I tested on Saturday and it was negative. Usually my cycles are pretty regular. If AF isn't here tomorrow I'm going to go buy some more dollar store tests. Even though I'm late I'm not feeling very hopeful.
Good Luck Amber :fx:
Good luck violet, I'd test again today if you have cheap tests or tomorrow morning using a first response or similar.Quote:

I really have high hopes for this month. Don't know how much longer I can do LE diet now. I'm so over it and almost at underweight BMI. Unfortunately I cheated on cd 20 (day after o) and a little on cd 21, so I REALLY hope I did o on cd19 at 4pm when I had the pains.
Good luck Violet! It sounds like the beginning of a bfp!
Good luck Amber, I hope af doesn't show and that the dollar store tests are positive.
Meeks I'm on the same DPO as you, I hope this is your month. That looks like a good big temp rise. Don't worry about cheating on the diet on one or two days, it's the overall decline in condition that sways, and if your BMI is nearly underweight now that should sway strongly.
I'm sorry but that made me LOL! If that is the case, I'm sure I'm having a girl!! My overall condition is definitely declining at 39.Quote:

Congratulations Aussie and 4Griffins!!:cheerteam:
Violet, if there is color in the line then you have a BFP! Hope your line gets darker tomorrow morning so that you don't have doubts. :fx:
Meeks, glad to see you in the 2WW! This is a general 2WW thread so there are those TTC both girls and boys.
As for me, I am looking on to early Feb. for our next attempt...CD 5 for me today. I will continue to check in here though. Seeing the BFP's is motivating as I pass the time until my next attempt. I made an appt. for Feb. 5th to go to my Dr. to discuss my short luteal phase.
Well, I've tested again 11 and 12 dpo and the line is definitely getting darker, I still have no real symptoms. I did have some old blood in some cm yesterday but nothing fresh and nothing since.
I'll try to post my progression line...

I'm feeling more optimisitic but after my last few chemicals I won't be happy till AF hasn't come and I've got symptoms.
Violet, test on an FRER! My internet test was pretty much a stark BFN on 10 dpo but positive on an FRER. The pic doesn't do it justice; it's got more colour in real life.
GL to those still waiting to test
Waiting is tough but getting closer every day. Saralou and trueblue I'm 6 dpo as well with the same symptoms. When are you planning to test? Fingers crossed!
I haven't done any temp charting either, but if I don't have a bfp this cycle, I am going to try to learn a little more about it. I sure have not been sticking to the LE diet... It'll be a rude awakening to get back on it if I have to try again! It is amazing how long ten days can be....Quote:

Mum to three girls congrats :)
Loving all these test lines and BFPs!!! Any update from Violet?
I am now 9DPO and am not allowed to test till 11DPO as DH has an interview that day and don't want to distract him... am very tempted to do a sneaky test on my own but it would ruin the moment of testing together on Thurs, so a long wait ahead argh!
What symptoms are people getting? I am tired, and have terrible gas! Sorry TMI! If I am not preggo how embarassing!
Are bleeding gums and/or mouth ulcers an early sign does anyone know?
xx
Thats ok, I got a $100 gift card for transfers that I already spent tonight.Quote:

I don't know if bleeding gums are a sign oficially but I certainly had them during pregnancy with both my boys! And never when not pg.Quote:

I am more stressed this month than past months and don't know why.
Meeks what dpo are you now ? Haven't a clue if I'm in the 2ww now as I think this maybe an anovulatory cycle. Not to bothered though as my prescription for clomid is in the post! No more long erratic cycles :)

Huge congratulations Mum to three girls!!
Meeks I'm the same, I'm just skipping breakfast at the moment and not snacking. I'm doing the french diet and sticking to that still, but originally I was trying to eat low fat and low cal too, but that's kind of gone out the window now.
Congrats to all getting their BFPs - massively encouraging! Only came into this post yesterday so bit behind on everyone's progress!
Averysmon - I'm not sure when I'll test, maybe this weekend? I reckon I'll end up getting AF before I end up testing (I got AF 11DPO last cycle), ever the pessimist! We'll be 11DPO Saturday...eek! When do you think you'll test? TrueBlue - when are you planning on testing?!
ltester - I am with you on the temp charts, going to try and understand this side of things a bit better next month as completley ignored it so far and just been using my digital OPKs!
Yesterday I had really bad lower back ache, a dull ache all day. I've had bad gas (like you Andi, hoping this is a BFP and not me lol!) and I've also had twinges and had lots of EWCM yesterday - but I really think I am just picking up on everything as I am acutely aware of my body at the moment thanks to my keeness to get pregnant! I just feel like normal today :think:
Good luck ladies xx :)
I haven't been on here for a while.....Congrats to all you ladies who recently got your BFP!!! I'm so glad Jan has started picking up with its BFP! Good luck to everyone else who is about to POAS!!
AF is now 2 days late and I just got a bfn. Where are you AF?! My husband planned his next trip home around when I should be ovulating and now that is changing. If I don't get pregnant next cycle we are waiting until August to start trying again bc of my kids birthdays, the holidays and my sisters destination wedding. I just want a little sticky pink bean! Ok....rant over :)
Saralou I will probably POAS on Saturday as I know hubby and I are both eager to test. AF isn't due until monday and don't think I can wait that long. Getting the same symptoms.... Back aches, neck and overall body stiffness, vivid dreams, gas, and hungry (but that could be a result of the HE diet). With DD1 I got bfp at 10 dpo so I think I'll give it a shot on 11 dpo. Here's hoping AF stays away for all of you ladies testing soon! Baby dust!
I was in the chemists today being drawn to the tests :D
I didn't buy them - but I so wanted to!!
Monday needs to get skates on.
Well, I think I'm back here! I still haven't got a +OPK.. grrrrr (yesterday I had an almost positive in the morning, and then that afternoon and evening I didn't even have a faint line) and again this morning it's negative. Our attempts are done though as DH's work schedule is going to cause us to not be able to BD until after midnight on Wednesday night and being that I always have 28-29 day cycles (I'm on CD16) I think if we held off until then I would miss O, so we BD late last night.. here's hoping it worked but I highly doubt that.
Seriously, I HATE opk's!!!!!!! They screwed me up last month too as I never got a positive - got almost positive, then went to nothing!
Anyways, HI :) and congrats to everyone already preggo!
I hated dealing with OPK's too then I started temping and it was so much better because I knew for sure if I had ovulated. Have you tried temping?Quote:

My Ovulation Chart
I don't know what to think as this whole month has been a 'dry' one on the CM front and I've only had two small amounts of EWCM so far.
I guess i'll have to see if my temp rises tomorrow as it did drop a little this am
*for some reason everytime I post my chart the link always forwards to an unfinished version on my chart, but the thumbnail you see is up-to-date.. just too small to see unclose
MsBlakely I think from your chart that you haven't ovulated yet!
Looks like you're still waiting to ovulate.
It could even be today as there is a drop so maybe it could rise tomorrow?
Hang in there, hard I know :agree:
I really struggled with the opk too. I kept waiting for it to be darker and never got it, and ultimately relied on my being so regular. I can't imagine trying to pinpoint it so accurately as to do O+12 accurately. We ended up BDing Wed and Thurs before a likely Sat O, so who the heck knows! It seems like you might end up with a copule days before O with your attempt, too. Is that what you've done in the past? I am really curious how long those little swimmers last--seems like two days should work! How early did those of you with BFPs try?Quote:

Even when I'd been Ill for 10 weeks I didn't get antibiotics. So I just don't bother going anymore.Quote:

Just do it again when you can, and don't use acijel or anything in between attempts because you never know which one will catch the egg and you don't want to kill the sperm from your last attempt (I believe I did this a few times unknowingly).Quote:

I asked on a board and some people think it was just a fluke high temp. I definitely have had O pains today so I'm wondering if it might be happening as we speak...Quote:
