TWW October (part 2)

[Quinn31]

Ooh that's nice to hear but I can't get my hopes up. I suspect my temp will also drop like yours does around 8-10 dpo. I only have an 11 day lp which makes me nervous but my dr doesn't seem to think it's an issue.

Purple, might as well keep it. I wouldn't think one day would be a big deal.

Oh my goodness this thread moves fast!!

Thanks pop tart, I wanted to try everything atomic recommended for our first attempt, I will be very shocked if it has worked as I think it was maybe a bit too strict. If it's a negative this month I will drop the lube and prob move rephresh to a day or 2 before.

Ok, just to clarify, we had our first attempt yesterday on positive opk do I'm now 1dpo? Sorry, new to this!! How long do most of you wait until you try a hpt? I was thinking end of next week? The waiting begins....

Ttc2015 if you had a positive opk yesterday you most likely oed today so tomorrow would be 1dpo fx for you! Day b4 o is awesome timing and what most of us girl swayers aim for each month

I haven't been on the forums for about 2 months, hope everyone has gotten there BFP's!!!!

This was our 7th month of trying and I was really hopeful this month; Had some fast cramps/shooting pain on Thursday evening that I thought was implantation and had really good temps that stayed elevated until yesterday. Has anyone ever started there cycle before temps went below coverline? Had some faint spotting late last night and then this morning I started for sure. But my temps never dropped below the coverline and even this morning my temp raised a little. I had taken First response tests the last 3 days and not even a faint line appeared. This cycle has me baffled. My DH was really disappointed that this was another no month, we both would love a second baby, so it makes it even harder.

Hope everyone is having better luck then me.

Hi tfahn I'm on cycle 6 so I understand your frustration. My temps have stayed above coverline almost all my cycles temping after af arrives. I do get a drop but not until cd1and its mostly been above coverline from memory. Have you though about seeing your doc to find out what your next step could be ttc wise?

[tfahn]

Hi Pbn3, I remember seeing you in the past 2WW threads, hopefully this is your month!!!

I guess I am going to have to go see a doctor; I really didn't want too. I know they are just going to look at my weight and blame that. Yes I am overweight but I was when I had DD#1 and I got pregnant with her on the 3rd month of trying after coming off the pill after 18 years. I ovulate every month and LP is usually 11-12 days so I have those things going for me. I am older and this baby will be the last for us so I guess I should make an appointment. Do people usually go to there OB/Gyn first or go straight to a RE specialist?

Also I have been doing some reading on secondary infertility and it seems like a some people that had C-sections have issues trying to get pregnant again. DD#1 was Breech and they wouldn't let me labor naturally at our hospital so I had to have a C-Section, I wanted a very natural birth so a C-Section wasn't even on my radar until 1.5 days before they did the surgery at 39 weeks, so I didn't get a chance to do much research before the operation.

[Pbn3]

I hadn't heard that regarding c sections! I had ds1 at 33 and he was an emergency cs, ds2 was scheduled (I was 35). I'm now 37 so maybe both age and previous csections are against me I think you'd see you're regular gp who would then refer you to a fertility speciliast - I may be wrong there though and it may depend what country you're in too? But all the best tfahn in any case I hope you get a bfp sooner than later!

[Ttc2015]

Thanks pbn, thats cleared up the confusion for me. It's rubbish being new at all of this!

Tfahn, I understand the frustration of TTC for several months with no luck. With DS1, we tried for a year even though we timed everything right each cycle and I was charting, doing OPKs, practically standing on my head (LOL) etc in hopes of conceiving. I hope you get your BFP soon!

CD7 for me today. I had some major sharp pains in my left ovary all evening yesterday to the point of blurting out obscenities. Took an OPK and it was negative but the line was darker than I expected it to be. I really just want to get pregnant again soon. After being on the diet for over 5 months and doing exercise for 10 weeks, I've grown tired of it. I'd love to be able to pig out at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Thanks ksmom. I think if I was younger I wouldn't feel so rushed/frustrated with taking awhile to conceive. Sometimes I want to kick myself for not having kids sooner. We have been married for 18 years and I really didn't want kids until a few years ago, guess my clock ticking finally woke me up, lol! Now I can't ever imagine a life with kids, it is so rewarding.

Good luck to you, hope this is the month for you.
