This also happens to me. I think this is why we are more prone to girls, our bodies don't have the proper environment for the y sperm, just a theory.

Ladies, how are you all doing? ANY other testers out there today or tomorrow? Any ladies with good news to share? I decided to test today at 9DPO and got a BFN :( I am seriously so sad about it because I wanted more than anything to see a BFP after my MC and D&C in February. I feel like I really need to see a BFP because the BFN just made me so, so sad. It was with a FRER so I am feeling now like I am out this month...wouldn't even the slightest of slight lines show up with FRER by now? There was definitely nothing there...I tried with FMU and 2MU and both were stark white. Sincerely depressed and trying not to let it get me down. Sigh. Prayers for me if you have them! Thanks ladies!
Onthepond, I hope your BFP comes soon. I tested early last cycle and I swore I wouldn't do it again. That pain and uncertainty is too much for me. I'd rather just be disappointed when af comes and eat some chocolate. I never trust bfn until I see af anyway. You'll be in my thoughts!
Thank you so much Cinss and Kiki. I seriously just wish I was still pregnant with our baby we lost :( Breaks my heart and honestly, seeing these BFN's really just makes that worse. I thought if I saw a BFP I could really be so excited and over the moon again, but it is not seeming like that is going to happen. Most seem to get their BFP by 9 DPO so me seeing stark white at 9DPO sure doesn't look good. I should just throw in the towel and leave it to AF to show or not, but that is easier said than done, too, for me. Thanks for everything!
On the pond I'm praying for you. Lots of us have stories like mine: negative 9 and 10 dpo...positive on 12! And let's be honest, that's still early :-) Hang in there! Praying........
Thanks ladies, I so appreciate all of you. I don't talk to anyone else about any of this...Well, I guess DH but he is just always positive and says that it will happen, there is always next month, blah blah blah. 10 DPO and BFN's this morning with FMU and 2MU. Not looking good for me. Temps had dipped slightly the last 2 days, too. How could this not be our month after going through our loss. UUG. I just want to run away. We have 7 close sets of friends who 6 of which have had their babies in the last 2 months and the 7th is in labor this morning. Doesn't seem fair.
This is so me too. I didn't O until 3days after I had EWCM and when I did have it the OPT was very very negative. So confusing. When I got a +OPT my cervix was hard and not open like it normally is when I have EWCM and the cm was all claggy cream (TMI) which should be a sigh of not fertile. I feel I am destined to have all daughters when it seems my body doesn't want to act fertile only a week to 3days before I even O.
On the pond I am sorry your having a hard time. I think thats the hardest part about having a m/c is the length of time it takes to happen again (weather it 1month or 2years) when you have already planned your life to include that baby you lost. Its especially hard when people around you have what you shold have to. The girls are right. 10DPO could very well be too early. I hope so anyway. If not January is a way better time to have a baby :)
I am 1DPO today. Unfortunately we only DTD once due to DH working away. That was about 12hrs before I O'd so timing I am happy with and diet just wished I had more boy sperm in me amongst the girls lol I doubt very much I will get pregnant anyway but I can always hope.
I am patiently waiting for ovulation and started to calculate my maybe baby's due date...25 December. What an awful birthday! I feel like I should skip this month because I really don't like the idea of a christmas baby. On the other hand, the bfn start to wear you down and I don't want to miss any opportunities IYKWIM?
Im patiently waiting for CD1 to begin which is any day now! im slightly nervous after almost 6months of swaying ill be Going for my attempts soon! Lol I do the same I try to calculate maybe babys due date! When are you due to ovulate? If we conceieve round about 2nd week of April when would our due date be?
My due date would be around then and I'm just going to risk it. The women in my family are always late so I'm sure the baby would be due a few days late. Although since I said that, it probably wouldn't happen. I would celebrate a half birthday too so they could have some special attention. I really want to get pregnant so I don't want to skip a month.
I'm upset I O today because I've eaten candy and sweets for Easter. I tried to balance it by eating protein but the damage has still been done. I'm really not sure what I was thinking but it's too late now. Plus, we've been moving so my diet has been horrible. Still eating protein and carbs but more like snacks than meals. I'm just venting because my attempts are happening and I'm blowing it again! Oh well, hopefully my months of diet and exercise will overpower today.
Is it okay to dtd continously for 2 days? I'm not close to O yet i will take aroud 10 days more I guess depending on how EPO behaves with my body. Meanwhile me and DH dtd yesterday and today. It was just one off but is it okay if it happens in future or should I avoid it? My DH is 36.
Well ladies, AF showed late last night and this was a 24-25 day cycle month. It HAS to be a result of the MC and D&C because never, ever have I had a cycle this short. I have literally only had 27-29 days. Ooh well, honestly, I feel like maybe my body just wasn't ready. I am looking forward to TTC in April, though we really aren't doing anything to sway anymore...just prenatals, fish oil, green tea some days and BD every other day once AF ends. I just want to be pregnant again, a boy would be an extra bonus. Wishing you all LUCK and hoping to see some BFP's SOON!
I am unable to exercise more than half an hour. I do this 4 times a week though. Is it any good?
Have we not started a April TTC thread?
Don't think so, so I shall post my query here!!
Okay so i've just been trying to conceive little over 6 weeks. Last month my cycle was 38 days long(it used to be 28 days before that)!! I was told that since I was on prenats, EPO it was quite common. So I did not use my OPK till CD14, which is today assuming that I will have a long cycle, and I get a positive OPK today!!!
My questions:
1) Can there be a possibility that I get pos OPK more than once? If so should I continue to dtd?
2) I don't know when I will be ovulating as just now is the first time I tested, is it OK to dtd 3 times within 24 hours??
Oh I'm nervous!!!

S4724 yes you can get a +opk for more than 1 day, but the first one you get is the important one. Once you have seen it is is good to get in 3 attempts in 24 hours. Don't worry about how long your tests stay + you will Ov 12 - 36 hours after the 1st one.
Hello ladies, how is everyone? So no AF yet. I have a doctors appointment Monday and I'm sure she will want to get me on something to get it started but I'd like to have some "natural ideas " to bring to my doctors.... So I thought I'd come here to you ladies who I trust with this kind of thing. Another thing I got this link in my parenting magazine for a free ttc kit, it includes LH tests a basil thermometer and two stages of ttc "all natural " vitamins. How do I go about making sure the vitamins are boy sway friendly? Thank you all so much in advance :)
