Congratulations Indigo! So happy to hear you got a BFP, even if it was a little unexpected!
I got a bfn today. I'm going to wait two days and try again!Quote:
Yuzu~ Good luck? Did you test today...what happened??
Does it mean anything that my temp is getting higher?? Check out my chart. Could this be a sign??
I did this morning with a Wondfo and no line..but I think its super early- every sign feels like I am-I've been exhausted, back ache, almost menstrual like symptoms, feel totally warm by the end of the day. Wishing I had a frer this am. I may go get one when I bring DS to school in a bit for tomorrow! I read online that the frer detects way earlier then the wondfo cheapies!
DEFINITELY get a FRER. In the past I've gotten BFPs at 8 or 9dpo with FRER and was still getting BFNs with cheapies at 13dpo....
Oh good that confirms what I was thinking. Guess I'll be stopping at the drug store.. How are you doing? Did you figure out if you O'd - it sounds like you may have from what I read.
Yes - it definitely seems like I O'd - I've had 4 days of high temps now and FF gave me my crosshairs yesterday. Apparently you can't get a thermal shift without Oing.
As for whether I have a chance at a BFP...that's debatable. I spotted throughout my fertile time and even spotted at 3dpo. We also had pretty bad timing and perhaps too many swaying factors (rephresh + sylk + fr etc.). I'm not getting my hopes up too much for a BFP.
Mocha~ Well you never know! Good to know your Oing now...my fingers are crossed for you :)
OMG Hope- those temps are amazing, only had similar when pg, eekkk, getting excited for you hon! :)
Great news that you O'd mocha. i know how you feel about your attempt, I had no hope at all but if it can happen for me it can definitely happen for you! FX FX
Yuzu- sorry for the bfn, sending you lots of luck when you test next. Are you feeling any symptoms?
Thank you for the luck! I think it may have worked. Not sure though. I tested this morning with an internet cheapy and I got the faintest of faint lines. As a matter of fact, it's so faint that it may be my imagination. So I tested again a few minutes ago and I got another extremely faint line. I can't even get a picture of it on my camera. Once again, it may be my imagination because I feel like AF is just around the corner. I don't want to get my hopes up.
Dear friends, please keep your fingers crossed for me!:fingers:
Attachment 904
Can anybody see the 2nd line?
Yeah HOPE!!!!!!!
Did you test? Did I Miss the post?
BFN on cd12 for me!
My temp is high but not higher!
Mocha.,,,how are you doing today?
Congrats yuzu!
Thank you, Lemon! Sorry about the BFN. Are you planning to test again tomorrow?
Indigo~ Maybe I'll be right there with you!!! That would be fun!! I never charted while ttc before, but no other chart has looked like this and I am seriously tired... the thought that I actually may have conceived is actually making me a bit nervous-now we have the whole "gender issue"!! Ha, I didn't even get a positive and I'm nervous!
Yuzu~ I DEFINATELY see the line YEAH!! WOO HOO..
Lemon~ I tested with a cheapie and got no line, I read on line that they are not good at picking up pregnancy so early so I went to the store today and will test with FMU with a FRER.So I'll let you know in the am!
Lemon~ what did you test with a cheapie or FRER? When is AF due.. When I conceived DS1 I full on had every symptom that AF was coming then it all stopped the day she was due I tested and was in fact preggo! So I still think its not over yet. Holy, my diet this weekend and carried over into today has been a Disaster. It actually worries me if I get a BFN how much damage I did if I need to attempt in January!
Is FRER first repsonse?
I used internet cheapie..early preg...do you know it?
I am pretty sure I am out.....99% positive or even 99.9%.
The diet is out! BIG TIME...and I would be due to ovulate in 16 days from today...so, generally I am not swaying anymore I guess. DH is done swaying anyway. We just want a baby....but, a girl would make me sooo happy! I will always wonder what it would be like if I never have one. I could go on, but I think we all know how it feels!
My temp is a tad lower but still over 98. Yours is super high!
Thanks Yuzu! No more tests so I cannot test if I wanted to. Besides, af will be here for sure Wed...:( I am sad I am the only one left...? :(
Any good suggestions for food for the next two weeks?
I bought a lot of yogourt? Any do yogourt on the diet?
First of all, let me say WOOHOO!!!! to Yuzu - that is DEFINITELY a line. You're preggo, girl!!!
And lemon, those earlypregnancytests.com tests are crap. I had the ones from them that are supposed to be super early, and they didn't start showing a BFP until 5 days after a FRER did. Go out and get yourself a FRER!
Mocha....the earlypregnancytests are the OPKS I rely on....are they not any good????
I only have the preg test that came free with other tests. I have no idea the sensitivity of them...however, I just feel like I am due for AF.
MOCHA...you have a perfectly awesome chance,...is it because of timing you think you don't have a chance?
No - their OPKs are ok - though I never rely on them alone - when they start getting dark I use Clearblue digis to confirm them. Good thing, because they are never quite positive yet when my digi gives me a smilie.
The reason I'm not expecting a BFP is a combination of timing, too much rephresh, sylk and jump and dump. When you look at it, it's a pretty good girl sway I suppose, but I'm more interested in getting pregnant quickly, and last summer I wasn't able to get pregnant until I dropped all that and just relied on supplements, diet and antihistamines.
Hey mocha,
They are often hard to read!
I back them up with the cbfm...but it only peaks the day I o,..which I think is confusing since it is always gives a second peak day for everyone followed by one high day. That would mean I am actually infertile right?
I bet you get pregnant!!!!!!!!!
I see the line!!! Congrats Yuzu!!!!!!!
I've got TONS of blue dust for you, Hobbermittens!!
lemon - I totally agree with Mochagirl about the IC. I think they are really inconsistent - some are good, but a lot are just plain bad. I also did the same as Mochagirl with OPKs - confirmed with the smiley faces.
Hobbermittens - you can have some of my blue dust too!
Mochagirl - last year when we were swaying, I had to drop almost everything too to get pg. I did the same as you, supplements, pseudo diet and sudafed when we got pg with our angel.
Yuzu - congrats girl!!
AFM - got my BFP on Sunday and then confirmation with the digital on Monday. Praying for a healthy, sticky bean. Absolutely no swaying with the exception of Vitex only as it really tightened up my cycle.
Kitten - I'm sorry you had to go through a loss too. Here's hoping for a quick BFP and a sticky pink bean this time around :HH:.
Hobber~ Here's all my blue dust...ALL of it!!
So this morning I took a FRER and got a BFN I am only 11 days past O, my temp is still up, and I am getting super tired....According to FF AF is due Thursday... so we will see. Do you think I still have a chance???
Been busy all day cleaning out my kids playroom to make room for Christmas toys! Been meaning to do this FOREVER!!!
I still think you have a GREAT chance, hopeanddream!!!! :luck:
Thanks for the blue dust, everyone!! :)
Hopeanddream, I have heard of plenty of people not getting a BFP until 12DPO or later! FX for you!!
Thanks hobber and mocha. Hoping to get a bfp soon. Should I even test in am? Don't want to waste the tests! Maybe I'll start with a cheapie and go from there :)
Thanks Mochagirl. I feel the same for you.
HopeandDreamG - A girl I know didn't get a BFP until 15 dpo!! I'd say you definitely still have a chance.
Hello Ladies! I just joined and finally posting -- so excited to see a group for buddies over 35 - woo hoo!
I am 40, and DH is 41. We have 2 gorgeous DSs ages 4.5 and 2.5. We want to add a third soul to our family (and I would love a little girl. DH doesn't care -- he jokes that he wants "an army of men" ARGH!) So, I want to sway but DH won't do much besides agreeing to abstain or do frequent release. He already takes a bunch of vitamins but won't do the "girl" supplements or diet.
I've looked carefully back on how our DSs were conceived and thinking at minimum I maybe should try the opposite? Did anyone else do that? What do you think? DS1 was conceived the first month (I was 34) by dtd 2x on D10 and D13. At the time I had a 27 day cycle and according to the website I used to track I was scheduled to O on D13. I had no idea what I was doing back then, no idea when I actually O'd but just figured we would try a little around O. DS2 was conceived "oops" on D8, so 5 days before my scheduled O, but again I have no idea when I really O'd. So, I'm thinking maybe lots of BD from AF to O?
Also, I know some think this is silly, but all BD attempts with DS were on BOY moons! DS1 was in full moon, and DS2 was hours following new moon. Not sure how much the moons really matter...but I'm thinking maybe we should only BD when there is a girl moon? :giggle: Maybe dtd everyday of a girl moon until after O. Is that a crazy idea. So it would be like 2-3 days in a row, then 2 days off? (We tried O+12 for 2 months...and DH did abstain the first attempt for 12 days. The second time he did fequent release. But we didn't get preggers and we are too old to wait for this O+12 timing...I can't figure it out.)
Anyone else doing frequent BD??
Kitten~ Just saw your siggy CONGRATS...YAY
Yuzu~ I'm still getting negatives, Tried this am with cheapie didn't want to waste a FRER- will use one tomorrow with FMU because FF tells me AF is due and I could test.
Check out my temp its crazy high..and all negatives- I know its still early.
Ilindgurl~ WELCOME- there are some really good thread/stickies about 0+ vs. cutoff- especially addressing the age issue with 0+ not really being great. I don't really believe so much in the moon stuff- r u talking about moon signs or full moon vs. new moon? Theres nothing you can do about when you ovulate whether its in a new moon vs. a full moon. The fact that you conceived boys in the same moon probably speaks to the fact that you O a similar time each month and not much more then that! GL
HopeandDreamG - thanks!
What are you testing with? Still on the ICs? Maybe a brand name is called for... When I tested, the IC line was barely there, where as the + showed up almost right away and the digital showed "pregnant".
Welcome ILindGurl! Sorry I have no advice as I gave up my sway.
Kitten - how exciting!!!!! I hope you have a sticky pink bean in there!
