Nann, sorry I don't see anything. I have read that boy embryos may be more likely to implant later though...is that a SurePredict?

ksmom I see that line! I'm betting your strange flat temps are 'ksmom pregnant with girl embryo' pattern. Yep I'm calling it now!

Maybe whoever predicted BFPs all around will be right (excluding me but I don't count)! IIRC, more babies are born in October/conceived in January than any other month, at least in the Norhern Hemisphere.

tfahn, lol @ your husband trying to barter pets. Yeah, it doesn't really work that way...How old is your yowler? What kind of dog do you have/any other pets?

I'm kicking myself bc the kitten, Whiskey, had a sweet little calico sister (only 2 in the litter; momma cat lived with 16 other cats, is inbred, and none of the cats get enough to eat, so a pink sway in action). I really wish I'd taken her too and I think things would be better now if I had. But at the time I only had one cat carrier (it was somewhat of a spur of the moment decision) and I've never had more than 1 cat at a time and I didn't want to overwhelm Fenja. But I ended up keeping the kitten separated for about a month, which was hard on the kitten who really would have benefitted from a playmate. Now that Fenja is kinda semi used to Whiskey I dare not bring another cat in, at least not until Fenja fully accepts Whiskey. I'm afraid the other cats would gang up on Fenja.

If I could turn back time I would have at least tried it with 2 kittens. Especially since I realised Whiskey had been practically starved (doubyless her sister was too). She is the half the size she should be despite eating 2x what Fenja eats, and still eats like she is ravenous.

Actually yes I was using one step but forgot I switched to my old ones and they're surepredict.

I have heard that about male embryos too. That's like my final saving grace for hope at this point lol. I've had subtle cramps since 9dpo. Tinges kind of in my right side of my abdomen. Dunno if it has anything to do with anything or I'm just paranoid. Well see I suppose. Not holding my breath lol

Maiden, We have a English Springer Spaniel and the yowler is around 6-7.

At one point we had 3 cats but they have all since passed, the first 2 were brothers (we named them Jake and Elwood, after the Blue Brothers movie.) they were cute growing up together. Then a few years after getting them my husband found a wounded kitten (he used to feed the farm cats near his work), its back leg was injured and became infectious so the vet said either amputate the leg or they would have to put her down. So that is how we ended up with 3 cats at once and one with only 3 legs. She also had a parasite which was cured right away but I think that stunted her growth. She never got over 7 pounds and could eat the other 2 cats under the table, we had her for 15 years and she just passed last year. After the last blue brothers passed a few years ago is when I adopted the yowler she could of cared less about the 3 legged cat but really adores our dog, they are cute together.

Oh I so hope you're right Maiden!

Momamia I can't wait for your "real" testing to begin.

Nann with DS1 I had bad brief cramping around 11dpo which may have been implantation cramps. FX you've got a blue eggie that is just implanting late.

That's what I'm feeling at the moment. And I'm 11dpo. Hopefully I get a son like you did from all this lol

[Pbn3]

Ksmom I see it!! Eeeeekkk!!! Cnat wait for your next test!

Momamia your symptoms sound so promising! Cant wait till you get to 8-12dpo!! You may not completely lose the line before it starts darkening again lol!

Nann I'm sorry I cant see anything either. Fx for the next few days!

Wow, thanks ladies for the information on the continuous exercise, this swaying process is so complicated! I am not sure I can do the 1 hr continuous exercise everyday but am not sure I could do the no exercise either. How do ladies that are swaying long term do 1 hr of exercise every day? Wonder if I did a work out video for 60 mins would that work? If I had some home gym equipment I probably work it in but trying to get that organised before March unlikely. Part of me thinks I will go hard on the diet and exercise the way I am, I exercised walked twice a day (not for an hour) when I conceived my DD so maybe it would work again? I am kind of feelings that my chances of swaying are unlikely and maybe I should just accept that it will be another boy .

Good luck to everyone, Maiden am excited for you, it seems that things are working out for you this month!

[Nann3r]

Here's a greyscale. Sorry I've just been staring at it all day so I decided to fiddle with it. AF is due on Saturday. I'm NEVER late even by a day.. so I'll know for sure by Saturday if all these silly cheapies worked or not lol.

[ksmom]

Nann I see something! Are you testing tomorrow?

Girliplease, I've been doing the cardio on my stationary bike at home while the boys nap. It's really convenient for me to do it that way. Are there any opportunities like that for you to do exercise?

[Nann3r]

Yeah I'll test tomorrow with my last IC. Then I'll just wait for AF.
