August TTC a Girl Thread

[Livethe3quetra]

Hairbows, your tests look exactly like mine, only backwards. The top being 8dpo and the bottom being this morning. Now I am freaked that maybe I ovulated..... Does that even happen? Ovulate on CD8or 9?

Hoping - that's not pos yet but soon will be!

Livethe3quetra - pure aloe Vera gel is the wonder worker for sunburn. Get it from pet supplies places as they put it on sores on horses but it's cheaper than chemists.

Eleena - good luck!! All this waiting is terrible lol!

Blue- The top was CD9 and def a false positive from the clomid. The one below it was from yesterday mid-morning. I think about 9am. We didn't get to DTD until this morning, so I hope that we were still able to catch the egg. I felt some twinges on my left side afterwards so I am hoping that was ovulation. I hate to think of this as a wasted month, because I was expecting a darker test line. Fingers crossed. If it doesn't work out, I am definitely going to the four day method next month. Good luck if you decide to test tomorrow! I hope this is your month!

Livethe3- Try not to worry! Your CD 8 & 9 tests could have been the clomid! my top test is from CD 9, the test below that is from yesterday morning (CD12!). I have taken 4 tests since yesterday morning and they are getting progressively lighter, so that's why I am think I might have had my surge with that test (the second one). I didn't realize it was my positive at the time, so we didn't dtd until 24 hours late. I am hoping we didn't miss the egg!!! If so I am definitely doing every 4 days next mont, because I don't like playing this guessing game. I want to know that we had a good chance of conceiving. Especially because the clomid is really messing with my emotions AND giving me headaches.

Lya- I am going to keep testing in case it starts getting darker again. It was just so light this morning that I rushed to get at least one attempt in before we lost the egg. I think we will DTD again 4 days from now just in case it was not my real surge. Thanks!

Thanks for looking everyone!

Ugh pretty sure I'm out. My temps are slowly going down. Still not at my coverline, but not going up like they should when pregnant. I'm going to be a mess waiting 7 months ttc again

[lyagirl]

Oh no seabeewife I hope not! Praying for u!

I'm exhausted today, got a headache, felt full not very far into my dinner, just had some sharp pains in right side of my tummy and stringy white cm. All of which I had when I was preg before so I'm quite hopeful now. Got bfn this morning but silly really as I'm only 6dpo and if that was implantation a min ago I won't get a bfp until at least 8/9dpo?

Lyagirl - Is that how long it takes to show up? 48 hrs or so after implantation is BFP?

SeaBeeWife- Im sorry dear. It stinks you will have to wait that long if you weren't successful this time. On the upside, as an Army wife I can tell you that there always sees to be super-human fertility right when they get home

[lyagirl]

About 3 or so days I think, think it depends on the individual. I might have been a bit keen saying 8dpo lol

Ah Seebee that sucks! If AF is on it's way I hope you get a BFP as soon as he gets back.

Lyagirl-- sounds promising! Fingers crossed for you!

Can't wait to start seeing some BFP's rolling in soon!!!

For me, I'm 3dpo and FF corrected my chart today and is now correct. I O'd on CD14 and we had our attempt on CD13 so I think we have a pretty good chance as dtd the day before O has the highest chance of conception. We were out of state and staying in a hotel without the kids for a wedding so I think our attempt was pretty relaxed. This is cycle #4 of TTC for us (over a 6 month period) and I'm feeling pretty positive for this cycle! I'm going to try and hold out testing till 11dpo, since a BFN on that day pretty much means I'm out. That will be next Wednesday for me!

Good luck ladies!!!!

[seabeewife]

Haha I probably won't be ttc the first month. I want to do what attomic said works best, which is every 4 days and once on a positive OPK. We BD like rabbits every time he comes home from deployment! I can't wait to see BFP's on here!

[bluebonnet22]

Fingers crossed that your temps jump back up seabee.. I'm so sorry!

Thanks for all the good vibes ladies, hopefully I have good news to report this week.. otherwise, lots of wine drinking on my vacation to Europe later this month!
