April 2WW

Smarston- I hope the timing works out!!!

CD1 for me. I guess it was just wishful thinking to hope that I hadn't Od. What a terrible cycle. Oh well. Bummed that I'm now half a year out from the due date of the baby we miscarried and no longer have a chance for a 2015 baby. But nothing I can do about it.

I just realized that due to my ear infection I'll be on high doses of steroids (prednisolone) until CD10 or the 12th of April. Apparently it only takes 36 hrs for it to leave the body so hopefully this timing works out to not affect O! But since O doesn't normally come for me until CD25+ I guess I'm not going to worry and just hope that being so sick sways girl but that I still O and can get pregnant this cycle!

Sorry junie. What a bummer and a hard time for you

No BD last night. Think we'll do tonight instead. It should -2 before expected O if my body is working normally. I took an OPK yesterday just for fun and it was very faint. Hopefully, today's will be darker and make me feel better about our attempt tonight

Can I finally join here??! FF gave me crosshairs after I marked two temps questionable as I was sick (one was ridiculously high, and the other one was the higher-ish one the day after that one). I'm not sure what I think - I thought maybe CD39, but I think that I at least definitely see an upward motion? Just figured I'd get an expert opinion from all of you ladies and whether you think I actually did O, too!

I think you probably just Oed 2 days ago on CD44; CD39 is possible but not likely IMO especially in light of last cygke's post O temps. Fx for you and nice to see you posting again!

Anyone have any good stories about using an hcg trigger shot? I'm CD5 now and I'll be getting scanned next Weds, on cd11. I'm really hoping the dr will say everything looks fine - lining good, an egg or to growing nicely - and that we'll just do a trigger to be on the safe side.

I'm basically hoping to avoid Clomid because I'm swaying blue. I have been doing a very good sway and I am the OPPOSITE kind of environment from when I conceived DD - but my mc last dec had complications and my cycle stopped completely until last week. O'ing without clomid would be VERY LUCKY - but since you pink swayers use it as a pink sway tactic, I was definitely going to hope for the best at least for one month. Anyway - anyone have a good word to say about hcg triggers, I'd be grateful to hear it.

Junie - I feel like we've been in this for a while. I SO SO want you to get your bfp this cycle. Purple, Taytum - I've been following your stories too and I'm really rooting for you. Maiden, I'm also v much rooting for you and also very impressed by your knowledge!

I also wondered that as well, Maiden! I feel like I actually did have some EWCM the other night, but didn't know if it was because of BDing (although it was much "thicker" than normal post BDing EWCM). I'm only going to temp for a few more days and if I can see an actual temp shift and feel confident in it then I'm going to stop temping. I've kind of been more relaxed as I've had a job interview this week so been focused on that and not TTC. It's been nice to not analyze that stupid temp every morning!

tm29 - still love that pic. I was concerned about having to start Clomid too if I didn't start O'ing at a decent time (if May comes and not much improvement I will go to the doctor for some more support) but Maiden & Atomic told me that pink swayers use Clomid with the diet/exercise and everything else. But, if you use Clomid with some sort of lubrication/boy diet/exercise, you still have a good shot at swaying blue. I was worried about it as well. I'll be following along with you!

[Junie]

Taytum- Great to see you here again! I agree with Maiden on the CD44 as potential O date.

TM29- I don't know anything about triggers but I do know I've got everything crossed that you get pregnant this cycle!!! With a bouncing healthy baby boy

[tm29]

Taytum - I am really with you re Clomid. It's obviously right - as Atomic and Maiden say - that the results for Clomid are clomid+pink sways. But I feel like it is definitely not a plus however you look at it. I want to try this one month without and if I don't O on my own, then I will take it next month. Sounds like you'll do the same? I wish I could forget my worries about clomid, I really do. I was pg last time with it (before my mc) and it worked like a charm - first month! But I was really worried all 3 months of my pregnancy that I had taken it.

I would love someone to tell me I have ZERO need to feel Clomid is an issue - but they can't. Obviously. Ugh!

JUNIE - you are lovely. Thank you.
