Great title, really hope you lovely ladies get your bfp, I am going to hang around to cheer you on x
Love those creative thread-titels. Thanks for making this one.
DS1 (9) ❤️ DS2 (8) [emoji173] DS3 (5) ❤️ DW (41) [emoji1326] DH (38) [emoji144] TTC'ing pink from May 2016
I've decided to throw caution to the wind and do SMEP this month. I've been ttc for so long and I doubt I'll actually get pregnant anyway. I'm just sick of waiting. Ttc is so full of waiting. I'm over it. I'll take what I can get at this point. I just want a baby. Like I said, I doubt I'll get pregnant anyway. I'm still going to go in for my ultrasound on Tuesday at my RE's office and see what's going on with my ovaries. I'm still going to plan on doing the injectables but I'm not going to stop ttc in the meantime. As it looks now, dh is going to be out of town when I'm supposed to ovulate next cycle on the injectables, so I'll probably end up skipping that cycle anyway. I'm cd9 today and feeling like I may actually ovulate early this cycle. I'm super bloated and that happens either when I'm going to ovulate or when AF is around the corner, so FX I ovulate early this cycle. I'm interested to see how my miscarriage last cycle effects things this cycle. FX for everyone! :) I hope everyone gets their bfp's this cycle to make up for the lack of them last cycle! :cheerteam:
Love the name. Fingers crossed for everyone trying this month.
Momamia, I've gotten pregnant every cycle I've ever done SMEP.
I expect to ovulate this weekend, so I should actually be testing on this thread!
Yay!!! That's what I want to hear! The key for me is staying pregnant. I'm not so good at that. :/
Me too, Momamia. :( <3
Tentative 'hello :)' here. I am due to start ttc again in approx 6 weeks time so right at the end of October/early November but thought I'd pop my head in to meet some fellow ttc buddies. I know some of you already which is nice but sad at the same time that you're still in the 2ww threads :( hopefully the next three months will see us all in a ddg together 😀. Momamia I think smep is a great idea. I plan on trying to do smep to the 't' if I'm not successful first cycle (which by my history can be pretty much assured lol). If its any comfort, the fact that its taken so long to conceive can be a really good 'pink' indicator for us :)
I had taken a break from everything including the aspirin and vitd&cal my ob recommended as I needed to take a step back from it all for awhile. I feel like I hit rock bottom just over a week ago and am now well and truly on my way back :) Have started a learn to run program this week and am only loosely doing le diet and have started back on aspirin and vitd&cal just today but am planning on only taking eod until my cd1 of my ttc cycle which I'll bump up to daily over the two weeks to o. I am still trying to move on in life, I have applied for two different part time jobs (unsuccessfully) and have finally enrolled in my diploma of business course which starts early October. I've been spending some quality time with my gorgeous boys as this year has been so full of ups and downs that I felt I was failing them emotionally.
I may not post much initially but I'll be following :)
Hope to see many many bfps over the next few months!!

Yay, Pbn3!!!! I'm so excited that you're going to be in the same ttc group as me!!!!! FX we both get our bfps as we've definitely been at it for far too long! :)
Just popping by to say best of luck to all you lovely ladies ttc this month. Xxx
I will be joining you as well! CD11 for me today. I usually ovulate around CD19 so hopefully I will join the 2ww soon. So far I have 3 months ttc & 34 weeks on the LE diet. We have dropped a few things the past few months (coke zero for me & hubby, peppermint tea for dh, one attempt). We tried e3d last months but I had very little EWM for the first time ever so I think that was our issue last month, combined with a 9 day luteal phase. So this month we are bd e3d, continuing with LE but bumping up the cals, full fat dairy once a day & red meat once a week. I am really enjoying red meat once a week but I am a bit worried how this might affect the sway. I am also trying not to look at this site much this month as I am trying to reduce any stress/martha tendencies too. Im trying not to stress about ttc for so long but its hard. Goodluck everyone!
My body is so frustrating! I don't understand what it's doing! Here's my chart and a pic of my opks (I test twice a day, so this morning's test is the bottom one). Can anyone shed any light on what's happening? I'm really interested to see what the ultrasound shows on Tuesday. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...19c2285053.jpg http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...b34c5e687b.jpg
Me too! Good luck to everyone! Just started my 2ww actually. Had one attempt at first +opk, j+d, hot showers, lost 5lbs just recently, vegetarian and heavy coffee drinker. My opk+ turned out the first of 2 and so we dtd cd9 and l ovulated cd12, maybe maybe cd11. Really Hope things work out for the best for everyone! And thanks xx!

My OPKs are fading in nicely, so I'm hoping to finally get a positive tomorrow or the next day!
Me too! Looks like we may be cycle buddies!!

My Ovulation Chart
Momamia my best guess would be a random high temp/unreliable temp. Unfortunately there's nothing to do but wait and see how the next couple days temps look. None of your opks look positive. *If* you have oed then you have an awesome timed attempt in but I'm not convinced you have. What cd do you usually o?
Sent from my GT-I9305T using Tapatalk
Hmmm. Well I agree with Pbn3, and we have to wait and see what your temp does over the next 3 or so days. It could be a one off high temp, or you could have ovulated.
I will say this, with my DS1 I ovulated early- much earlier than with any of my other children or ever! With my DS3, I too didn't get a positive opk testing twice a day.
FX that this all get sorted out! I'm hoping for a surprise, sticky bean [emoji4]!!

My Ovulation Chart
I'm waiting to test after one attempt at positive OPK about a week ago.
I've been too busy trying to solve our sudden financial problems to even think much about the fact that I might be pregnant. I hope I am, though, even in this very difficult time. It would be a blessing, and a clear source of hope.
I hope you are all doing well. :happy:
I don't usually O until cd16-22. It varies a lot. I don't really think I've ovulated but I agree that we'll have to see what happens the next few days. I don't think I'll actually ovulate for another 4 or 5 days at the earliest. Thanks for the advice ladies!
Serenity big hug and hope you get great news :bighug:
A TWW question -
regarding cm post ovulation. I usually dry up after o but have read that ongoing wet or creamy cm is only a positive pregnancy sign AFTER implantation (7-10 dpo) and not before.
What do you ladies think or what have you seen?
Are there women that have dry cm that still have bfps after TWW or is cm just not a sign of conception and I shouldn't read too much into it.
Thanks!!:awe:
Me mom - creamy cm is pretty common prior to af I've found. I have not noticed much if any difference in post o to af cm between my bfp and bfn cycles :( There may be some merit in feeling 'wet' down there though as I'm pretty sure I remember feeling that with my bfps.... but I cant be certain if that was after a pos hpt or not?
Serenity fx for testing next week, hope you update with a bfp!

FX for you Serenity!!!
ME MOM, I personally have this weird yellowish snot-like CM (tmi, sorry) post O in bfp cycles only. It's actually how I knew I was pregnant this last time before I even took a hpt. I think it's the mucous plug forming.
Jumping on this thread! My first attempt is going to be early October!! As soon as AF arrives this month! So excited!! I feel October will be a GREAT month!

Honestly I was thinking of trying the same thing after just reading about it. I have not attempted yet but am hoping to get pregnant this month. I think I need to increase my odds!Quote:

Thanks, Robin! Good luck to you too! I've been ttc for a year and a half. I've been doing LE for basically that whole time. I also just had a miscarriage and have been sick for the last week and a half. I also have very reduced odds of conception because of my tubal reversal. I'm hoping all of that will still sway girl despite doing smep. Although, at the end of the day, I don't really mind having another boy as long as I finally get a take home baby. I'm so excited for tomorrow to get my ultrasound!! :)
Awe wow that's a long time on the diet! So sorry about your miscarriage. 😢Quote:

Boys (DS1, DS2, and lost ID twin boys) and an early loss. DS1 was a blue sway, DS2 was doing everything I could to get pregnant ASAP.Quote:

I'm popping on this thread only because our first attempt will be end of October (if 28 day/14-15 day luteal phase cycles hold steady for me), and I'm now on cd4 of this last NOT TRYING cycle...and I'm just so impatient! Anyway I wish all the October TWW ladies the best of luck, and that I ONLY see you in due date forums meaning you ALL get lucky with BFPs! (I'll attempt to cross every digit for you as I post!)
Feel free to hang out with us! I was all over the september 2ww thread and my first attempt is this week. :)
Speaking of, I'm worried we might be out. DH came home an immediately launched into detailed description of his uh, tummy troubles.
Foxtrotmomma - I hope your dh feels better soon!
Hi everyone.
This is my first month ttc. We have a DD of 16 years and a 20 month old DS.
I started charting this month and I'm on CD12. I usually O between CD 14 - 18.
I wish everyone the best of luck. This is my first post and I don't really know what to write. 😊
I need some advice (I'm going to post this in the Sept 2ww thread too). So I got a +opk this morning and I'm doing SMEP. The problem is that I bd the last two days in a row (got carried away with DH 😄). With SMEP, you're supposed to bd EOD until +opk. Once you get a positive, you bd for 3 days in a row, skip a day and then bd one more time. So, should I bd for the next 3 days in a row like SMEP says or should I just bd once more, or something else??
I would BD tonight, then take the next night off, then BD again. I would then continue to BD E3D or E4D throughout your cycle, in case O gets delayed.
FX for you!!

Welcome MeanVeggieGal. Good luck on your up coming attempt.
Momamia, I think XX's advice sounds pretty good. How long after your +OPK do you typically ovulate? Good luck.
So happy for all those having their attempts soon.
