I guess we're technically here now! I know some ladies are still over in the Jan. group but I thought I'd start this one up!
Only 6DPO due to my super late O! AF is supposed to start tomorrow if my body stays on it's 28day cycle so I have no idea what to think or when to start testing! Definitely very very crampy so we'll see....
I'm here too, at 7 DPO also! Not too many symptoms other than lots of little cramping and VERY thirsty yesterday and today. It also looks like my chart is triphasic this cycle. I think I will be testing tomorrow, early but, I got a BFP with DS2 at 8 dpo, so you never know...
I was wanting to try and test tomorrow as well but I've never had an early positive so I might wait it out a few days! Excited to hear how it goes for you!
I will be joining you shortly, ladies! I am charting my temps for the first time (why I didn't start earlier, I don't know), and just had a dip and then a spike. I was anticipating O on Wednesday which makes me wonder if I mis-charted or something. It seems early to dip and then spike, but I got a negative OPK today, so I'll keep checking. Does it make sense that I would get those kind of temps a few days before O?
I think I got an extremely faint BFP today at 8 dpo! It's the kind you have to tilt and look in the light but I see a line and its got some pink to it! Ahhhhh...tomorrow lets hope it confirms it better. Of course this is the month I had the big O....damn!
I will be here soon too. :-) good luck with your tests ICB3 and msblakely!
Good Luck Ladies :luck:
I hope today shows the line more clearly! From observing most other results, when there is any line, it ends ups being a positive. Good luck!Quote:

It's official!! BFP on 9 dpo on a FRER and I don't even have to squint! Yay!!!
OMG! YAAAAAY ICB3! You make it look so easy!
Congrats ICB3!
Thank you, I'm kinda in shock over it and hoping it sticks! Good luck blakely, ltester, averysmom and anchor! I hope you all get bfp's this month!!
Wow great news ICB3, congratulations! Hope you feel we'll in the coming weeks! Thanks for your good luck wishes :-)
So, I tried charting this month and I have a clear temperature drop and spike, but my OPK has been negative. FF predicted yesterday as my day of ovulation, but my body is also not giving me the clear indications that I've had in the past (EWCM) which I attribute to the LE diet. Is it possible I am not ovulating? Would I still have the temp changes if I am not? I've been exercising a ton (running 6-7 miles a day, 6-7 days a week) and maintaining the LE diet (aside from a major cheat of pizza last night!).

YAY! Congrats ICB3!!! First in this thread!
I swore I wouldn't test until 14DPO but I broke down on 9DPO and tested - negative obviously! So annoyed.. but I had a Dr. appt for my son (she's also my doctor) so I hoped that if I got a BFP I'd ask for my drugs (morning sickness) then and there because once it hits.. i'm a vegetable. Anyways.. that plan didn't work but I never have got a pos earlier than 13DPO. Super nausea today though.. can't tell if it's from worrying about something or maybe a future BFP?!
scratch that! AF just showed. Now I'm more confused than ever! I O'd late on CD22 (of a normal 28day cycle) and got AF on CD32 so my LP was only 10days??!? I thought LP was supposed to stay the same even if you O late? I tested yesterday and it was neg so I doubt that means a chemical would have happened? Any thoughts on why my LP would have been shorter?
Good luck to all of you! Moving on to next month!!
Sorry to hear it, Msblakely. I hope next cycle is more predictable! Good luck.
Oh boo! I hate that witch...MsBlakely, I know you had a weird cycle...what supps were you taking? your LP usually stays the same, but is there any chance it has always been 10 days?Quote:

good luck ladies!
How long have you been on LE diet? I am finding that my cycle is finally getting back to normal this month after three funky months. I really think my luteal phase was shorter from the weight loss and low fat diet affecting my hormones. Now that I am no longer losing weight and just keeping steady I am finally having a more normal cycle. I have been on LE since early October.Quote:

Our first was an abstain and I miscalculated everything so we made the attempt around 3-4 days before O and I did a huge j&d with every sperm reducing tactic out there so it can't really be classified as a decent try.
And AF has been so weird today. I literally saw bright red once this morning but since then its just been brown and almost nothing... what is my body doing!!!!
That is exactly the wy mine was, and I started the diet in November. I have always been so regular and now feel like I can't trust what my body is doing. Humph. I am curious to see what my temps are tomorrow, but I am still negative on the opk.Quote:

I'm now 5 DPO. I don't feel anything "happening". I know that sounds weird so early on but I haven't had a single twinge, cramp, pain...nothing. Last month I had all of these weird pinches and pangs from 1 DPO...but I got a BFN...so I'm not sure what I'm hoping to feel!! I just don't feel like my body is busy creating life yet! ;) Counting the days until I can test...
I think I'm about the same BabyGirl, lets see who holds out on testing the longest :bigsmile:
good luck ladies! Ive heard lots of people say the month they felt nothing was when they've got their BFP. The last 3 months I've had cramps from 1DPO-AF and all BFN's so I've given up on cramping as a sign for myself!
Me too. I am hoping to not even think about symptoms (honestly, I don't think I had any with my first two). FF says I O'd Wednesday which puts me 2 dpo today. I am going to try to hold out until next Monday before testing and try to assume that I'll be on this diet for another month to keep myself from feeling disappointed. Good luck to those testing in the next few days. Babygirl and ELP, when are you planning to test?
I don't chart or take opk's because they stress me out but according to EWCM I am O'ing today. I am feeling pretty hopeful this month since I feel like it was our first REAL try this time around. My husband travels for work and the past two months he has had to leave 4-5 days before O. This month my two oldest stayed with my mom and my youngest and I went and stayed with the hubs for a few days. We got back yesterday so I am hoping that this is our month! Come on girl spermies!
Good luck to everyone! Let's see how long we can all wait to test!
Got my BFP at lunchtime!!!!! GL everyone else this month!!!
YAY YAY YAY! CONGRATS peb!!!Quote:

If I have any willpower at all I'll wait until Wednesday 2/13...it's DS1's 3rd bday so maybe that will bring me luck :) But I'll be depressed on his bday and for Valentine's Day if its negative :( At this point I wish I would've just had another "surprise" baby so I don't spend so much time thinking about this stuff!!

Congratulations Peb!!
Itester, I will probably start on Monday or Tuesday I picked up little Davey at 8dpo so I wont be able to resist trying early :oops:
I waited til AF was due!!! I am 15DPO. I was so nervous doing the test. This month I did everything different. I never discussed TTC with DH during our TTW at all. We decided to call it a day, as I am 40 in sept. we were only ever gonna try till March, but it was getting me down so bad we decided to forget about it. My DH actually predicted this happening. Once we stop trying it will happen... He got a shock when I told him, because it was a one hit wonder!!! I had him FRing and it was killing him, he is as glad as me that that part is over. Now to look forward to the next 9 months hopefully XXXQuote:

Hi everyone, this is my 14th month ttc. I think I am approx 11dpo.
I haven't been swaying. I got a BFN today :( So I think I'm not pregnant.
I don't know exact O date only going by what date was given to me by my phone app lol I had a thick-ish blob of of EWCM on the O date. So I'm just assuming thats when I O'd we DTD that night.
We did FR which was difficult this month and also got a BFN. Our timing wasn't great due to him travelling so our attempts were only 2 days before and the day after O. Either way, we aren't doing any sort of frequency this month.Quote:
