Wow, that's amazing! I wish I had a DH like that! We'd probably have zero kids if both my boys weren't oopsies! DH thinks no one in the world should have more than two kids!

Hi ladies. I think I'm in the 2WW wait. This is the first time we have tried to conceive since my miscarriage last year in August so I'm partly excited and mostly terrified. I'm on CD 18 today and think I Oed yesterday as this morning OPK was back to negative and my BBT has risen well above coverline. I had pos OPKs on CD 16 and 17 and DH and I BD once on the night of CD16. We'd last BDed on CD 12. I am trying to remain calm and relaxed and to just forget about it a bit. I'm I my early 40s you see, so I don't want to get excited and then disappointed if I experience another miscarriage. Anyway, good luck to us all in this 2ww. :)
Hi and welcome 1moregirl! Sounds like fantastic timing! Fx you caught the egg! I've been following your story somewhat through your other threads and am delighted that here you are in the 2ww!!!

Pbn3, I agree it does seem you often have fallback rises. I'd go by your Peak in your case.
Pinkin, I had a very heavy, very painful AF after Clomid last cycle. My worst AF in several years. I hope you feel better soon.
Princess, good luck tomorrow. I hope your DD recovers well. What kind of surgery did she have?
essnce, my DH was anti-kids so I share your sentiments! It really bugs me when men aren't into reproducing.
I had a big temp drop today, though I did wake up very early due to my cats, and temped over an hour early after reading in bed. Still feel super hot though.

My Ovulation Chart
Thanks maiden. I'm just so confused this cycle as it was by far the least stressful in lead up to o and that peak reading I got was from 2.30pm which would mean I oed less than 15 hours later?? My cm was still fertile on cd13 but had started turning morning of cd14. I could've sworn I oed cd13/early hours cd14 but the temps just dont agree lol. Would love to go back to the good ol days when I'd get a spike, no fallback rise and cm to match temps hahaha! If wishes were wings!

Oh and your symptoms on chart are looking good although I know you said you've been fooled in the past. Are you still holding out until 13dpo to test?
519b48 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
Thanks maiden.... it had died off a bit but still in a bit of pain. I think having a 16 day LP hasnt helped
Pbn3, I also should have added that your CD14 temp is very likely too high due to alcohol. I think you probably Oed CD14 and are having a slow rise. It's not impossible that you haven't Oed yet though. I know how frustrating it is when things don't line up.
Yes Ive been fooled by every one of my symptoms. I'll definitely wait until 13dpo considering todays temp drop.
11 DPO and a BFN on a FRER this morning; still lower temps this morning but AF never showed yesterday like I thought due to the cramps I was having. We will see what today brings but I am happy that my LP will be atleast 10 days this cycle so that makes me feel a little better about my progesterone issues.

Does vitamin b6 sway blue or pink
Hi ladies! I got my first post partum period today. Yay [emoji12]! My sweet DS3 is 16 weeks and exclusively breastfed. Sadly, I am not one of the lucky ladies to have AF stay away while nursing.
I don't think I'll be TTCing anytime soon, but you never know- accidents happen [emoji6]!
I sure hope to see more BFP's!!

I definitely think B6 sways blue.
XX, I'm amazed your AF came back so early.
I temped at my usual time after 4 hours if reading in bed, and it was a lot higher...I used that temo but will change it back to a lower one if tomorrow's temp is lower,
I'm lovin your chart Maiden! I'm hoping AF stays away for you!
My PPP came back at 6mo with DS1 and at 8 weeks with DS2!! Apparently I'm pretty fertile! I ovulated from both sides this month. I had a pelvic US because I was having horrid back pain. We saw it on the US! My LP is a nice 14 days, which falls within my usual 12-15 day norm. I hope this isn't my new norm because I had horrid O pain on both sides!
Good news my kidney function came back normal with 3 values being 1 point away from being elevated. They are going to recheck again in 6mo. Hopefully my D levels will stay normal. If not, then that will tell us something since I'm on 50,000 IU of a bio-available form. I'm hoping I just had one helluva UTI from low D levels that got depleted while being pregnant.
I'm kinda scared to TTC or sabotage our condoms (haha!!), since it was confirmed I released two eggs! I hope it's just a fluke and not because I'm older BFing mom!

Aw congrats on your new son!
I can't wait to have another baby haha
I just had another blood drawn and nurse said doc would want to wait another cycle now to do saline ultrasound! Why!! What in the world!! I need to know if there is a damn polyp or not!
I also read If you get pregnant with a small polyp or fibroid it shouldn't effect pregnancy. So doc said she doesn't know what cause it, I am under weight.
I am taking zinc and iron start only a few weeks ago. I hardly eat any fruits or veggies my protein is low.
So I think I will follow maybe pcos LE diet I don't have pcos but just want to be more healthy either that or just do no meat with prenatal.
Then I get a phone call from hospital to schedule the ultrasound that doc ordered? I'm so confused so I made appt for next week. Maybe scheduler didn't know I got pregnant and had a miscarriage? An iltrasound won't hurt though so hopefully it doesn't get canceled and I will go to it instead of waiting a cycle
Welcome back XX! Can't believe your little guy is 4 months already! I have also been cursed with postpartum periods that come back ASAP! AF came back at 6 weeks with DS1 and 5 weeks with DS2!!! Yes, WEEKS! And my kids were exclusively breastfed too. It sucks and is probably one of the reasons I've constantly battled low iron!
No improvement temp wise for me this morning :( think its pretty safe to say I'm out

I'm not sure what to think about my cycle. I haven't started spotting yet like I expected but my hpts are super negative. I am crazy hormonal and having cramping. Maybe my progesterone is higher this cycle because of the clomid and that's why I'm not spotting yet? I'm 12dpo today and only had a tiny temp drop from yesterday - still high above coverline.

Pbn3 why don't you get an attempt in today. You probably just haven't O'd yet. Maybe you're O'ing today! You could have geared up to O and then it was delayed, thus the positive opks from a few days ago. That happened to me before. Maybe take an opk today and tomorrow.
Thanks essnce took opk yesterday and this morning and both low fertile. Also my cm is thick and pasty like it always is after o, the swimmers wouldn't be able tread water let alone swim up******. I'm truly baffled!!

I am with you Momamia with guessing about what is up this cycle, I think the Clomid is making us have crazy LP's.
I am 11DPO, my normal LP is 12, Still no AF but I have been cramping for 2 days which I normally never get so that is why I was expecting it. I have 2 at near Coverline temps but if I go back to my chart where I thought I had AF but was actually pregnant my temps now are in the same range so I don't know what to think either. I wish I could say, oh I have low temps I'm out but I now know that isn't true; I just have low P I think.
RE finally called today and said with that low P number the other day I should get AF any day now. I am going in on Monday for my cyst check and to get another script for Clomid. If no AF tomorrow morning I will take another FRER.
FX for you tfahn!!! I'm having a lot of cramping too. I'm not sure what to think of my no spotting. I always spot. Hopefully the next few days will come quickly.

Maiden, and Essnce, I'm sending you both a PM, be on the lookout [emoji6]! Thanks!

Really confused about what supplements sway pink? I thought b6 but now that appears to be blue?? So cranberry?? Calcium ? Omega fish oil? Baby aspirin? Can someone recommend? X my only option now for a pink princess
Anything that has extra nutrients or increases health, seems to sway boy. Most girl swayers these day are only taking folate/folic acid daily as that is needed for any healthy pregnancy. Most of us take fiber supplements daily as well as they seem to absorb fat and sway girl. That's about it. DH can take olive leaf extract as that seems to sway girl as well.
Most have dropped all other supplements as they seem to sway boy from the added nutrients. Aspirin is no longer recommended unless you have a confirmed MTHFR mutation (I do so I take it 3 times a week).
So no b vitamins, fish oil, cranberry, or probiotics for girl swayers.
Xxforhubby just want to say how wonderful it is to see you in here! I can't believe you popped two eggs!!! Way to go lol! And yay for getting your cycle back already! Maybe your body is trying to tell you something.....😉
519b48 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
Thanks! I'm just trying to figure out what to do. My DH basically said he wants to not try but BD unprotected whenever we feel like it and see what happens. I can't even believe it! I'm worried about me taking Vitamin D even though I'm grossly deficient. Ah well. I doubt I could even get pregnant anyway nursing such a wee one! Plus, I don't think I could ever conceive a girl, haha! What will be will be!

Wow XX an egg from each side! I think it probably is a one off from it being your first cycle PP.
Momsmia, I do think the 100mg of Clomid is probably what's preventing spotting...and/or remember you may have Oed 2 days later. You could definitely still be pregnant.
Pbn3, I had a cycle, in March 2014 actually (you can see it if you care) in which I gave up bc I thought I would never O. It was my first full cycle taking Vitex and my O was very delayed. I really regret giving up though, bc I Oed a few days later and didn't have well timed BD.
We will bd tonight but even with a good amount of preseed I fail to see how any swimmers will get through :( - my cm is about as hostile as it can get
519b48 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
The only thing I can think of I did this cycle that I haven't in others is take an antihistamine cd7. I had a really bad itchy leg episode and while I usually ride it out it was worse than I can remember in a long time so I took a single pill to try and help. I don't see how this could have affected ovulation so early in my cycle and it certainly didn't affect my fertile cm, I had more this cycle than I have in a long time. Racking my brain for answers and coming up short lol. I've never geared up to o and not, my cycles are very regular and predictable. Beginning to wonder if its not a progesterone problem though again I haven't had issues in the past that I know of. In any case its a mystery and I'll just wait and see what happens now temp wise. May go for bw cd21 if temps are still low. Thanks for your input ladies :)

Pbn3 I got pregnant with DS2 with no fertile cm, so you never know. I had sticky cm every single day leading up to O and BD on O-3 and O-1. I actually had fertile cm (watery and eggwhite) on 1 and 2 dpo. It was a weird cycle. But I got a BFP at 10dpo much to my surprise!
Thanks essnce! I'm ready to throw in the towel though. Tried to bd earlier as actually had a chance but dh couldn't finish :( my fault though I went a little overboard on the preseed 😂 I'm more inclined to agree with you and maiden that I geared up but didn't o. First time for everything as the saying goes. Must've been enough of a hormonal change though to change my cm in its very predictable pattern. Either that or prog has bottomed out so regardless I believe this cycles a bust :) all good, we'll move onto NTNP and see what happens :) thanks for the support!

Xxforhubby and Maiden - after doing some research on the net (which I know is a dubious source) I've created a thread questioning these apparent 'frer lines' we keep seeing under natural gender swaying general discussion forum. Could both of you have a look when you get a chance and voice your opinion from a scientific point of view? I've been interested in this theory somewhat for awhile now......
519b48 Ovulation charts on FertilityFriend.com
Pbn3, I'll be sure to check it out. I have seen soooo many charts in which O occurred long after fertile CM dried up, when CM was creamy, sticky, or even completely absent. Plenty of them led to pregnancy, too.
10dpo today...my temp IS lower so I lowered yesterday's temp. At least I have a small rise vs yesterday, not that it means anything.

My Ovulation Chart
Wondering if I should just give up swaying, I'm just so mad at myself and confused and need to just take it easy, feels like I'm blocking everything and everyone out of my life just to ttc.
I been so stressed out since my ultrasound last month and can't believe my doctor wants to wait a while extra month.
I was thinking of adding baby aspirin 3x a week, or every other day. Not sure though. I do take iron not sure I it okay to take both ? Then I think I should just take the prenatal 3x a week since I don't eat healthy I don't eat dairy or fruits or veggies
I'll definitely check it out. I've been wondering about this too, and I have a few ideas as to why this is happening.
Pbn3- I definitely think you can conceive with hostile CM my sweet DS3 is the perfect example!
