Yeh afy... Go for it! What does CBFM stand for?

And has anyone used the Clearblue Digital Ovulation Test with Dual Hormone Indicator?

CBFM = clear blue fertility monitor. I've had it for agggges so I decided to keep myself backed up with the clear blue digital sticks..

[Huds]

Ohh right ok. Ive been using the sticks. Awww goodluck afy!!!

It sucks that cramping can mean af or pregnant. Last month I had the same symptoms as I had with my mc in September so I was hopeful I was pregnant but it was a normal cycle. So now I can't even attempt to symptom spot. I'm hoping it mean something good for one of us!! When is af due Adia? Mine is either Sunday or Monday.

AF is due on Tuesday or Wednesday. I have been using progesterone cream this cycle because i know insufficient progesterone is a problem for me in the luteal phase and so far no AF signs or brown spotting like usual. I'll POAS on Monday and if its negative I'll stop the progesterone cream and bring on AF.

Did you speak with your doctor about progesterone cream? Was this a problem with your other pregnancies? I've always had shorter cycles and gotten pregnant but of course I'm always panicking that something is wrong with me.

[Huds]

Having long cycles sucks!! I feel like im forever waiting for a +opk or my next cycle to start. When CM dries up does this mean fertile days are over?

[KikiCal]

How long are your cycles Huds? I could not handle waiting. My cycles are 23-25 days and I still have a hard time!! However, I'm a little nervous there is something wrong with them being too short.

Has anyone tried sperm meets egg plan? I'm going to try that this month and may modify it a bit when the opk is positive. You dtd every other day until +opk, then for the next three days. I got pregnant on that once before, even though it ended in a miscarriage.

No, I didn't speak with my current doctor about progesterone cream but it was a big problem when I was TTC DD2 and I had to take progesterone supplements.

I have had several months of progesterone deficiency symptoms so I went ahead and used the cream from Ovulation to CD30. Only problem is it can make me have pregnancy symptoms like tingly breasts, etc.

I took a HPT yesterday but it was BFN, again I had that happen several times with DD2 and DD3 so I'll test tomorrow and go from there.

This is super frustrating. I am going to start dropping things this month if I am not prego and start focusing more on the sperm meets egg mentality too.

Hpt= home pregnancy test

Don't be a symptom spotter! I even had bleeding mid-cycle two months ago and I wasn't pregnant. Last month I had no PMS which was a sign in the past but definitely not this time. I am so over symptom spotting and early testing. With DD, I waited until I was 3 days late to test. A bfn is too hard for me to see.

It's frustrating being on cycle 3 of ttc but I'm hopeful this is it because we've conceived twice in the third month. Of course, I just found out I have pneumonia, so no working out for me. Oh well, I'm going for it either way.

Adia, I'm going to my OB in a couple weeks so I may ask about that. 23 day cycles worry me a bit and it just suddenly changed. Of course, af coincided with me getting sick so that might have something to do with it. GL to everyone!!
