Overabundant October 2WW

[GirlieCat]

That is what I meant in my post, sorry am so clumsy in how i write. I did not stick to the calories and the diet boundaries and was often way under, so I was not really doing the le diet iyswim? That is what sent my cycles wacky, if I had stuck to the limits in the diet and the upper end due to breast feeding and cardio, it would have been fine! To undo some of the damage I inflicted myself I had to make changes that were more blue friendly. Hope to save other from my mistake.

People's af last for different number of days, my af only was 1 or 2 days at the most so I never went with start on a particular cycle day, I I always found I was down when af arrived and the thought of attempting again was so upsetting. So I tended to wait until that feeling passed, everyone is different, good luck everyone attempting or waiting to test! X

I understood you girlie and I feel like that might be me- I need to get a handle better on what I should be eating. I need more diary or eggs too. I think I eat too many carbs, but I am really confused with the PCOS stuff vs regular and understanding how many carbs to eat. I have PCOS but not insulin resistance plus I am on Metformin so I thought that allowed me to eat all the carbs I want :-) maybe I need to rethink that. hehe.

What OPK test are the ones that ladies talk about smiley faces or flashing? I just use the wondfo strips but wanted to see how much the other ones are you ladies talk about.

Thanks.

I've decided to continue to use OPKS but we are going to make our first attempt tonight! I am going to do ED3 since I just double checked and last time I got my girl I attempted CD 10 and CD13.

This time I'll do CD11 and CD14 since I missed day 10.

Girliecat they are the clearblue digital opks. Two kinds, one is a digital that gives you either empty circle (not fertile) or solid smiley (fertile - equivalent to pos opk). The other is the clearblue dual hormone digital opks you use with fmu that give you empty circle (non fertile) flashing smileys for high fertility (lh detected/rising) and solid smiley for peak fertility (pos opk). You would dtd at solid smiley if swaying pink.

I think AF is almost here for me. Had a little spot when I went to pee earlier. My hopes weren't that high for this cycle, since we ended up having our attempt too early. I should be ovulating again around the 14th of this month, so I will be back in the running at that point, hopefully. Thinking of doing e4d plus 1 attempt this time, due to my age.

Good luck to all who are testing soon! [emoji173]

Good luck to you Katt! I like your approach!

Are you doing one attempt fox or ED4?

We did one attempt this cycle. If we attempt the next two I think I'll stick with one attempt for now, and go to E4D in the new year.

I'm feeling so down about this cycle. I'm trying so hard to stay positive. It's really hard when you're doing everything you can think of to get pregnant and it still isn't happening. I'm going to go do my cardio and hope that helps calm me down a bit. It usually does. Trying to get back on the bandwagon for this next cycle. Hopefully I'll ovulate early again. It really makes the time go so much faster when you ovulate a week earlier than normal. LOL! We're going to be taking November off of ttc, so I'm definitely giving it my all this cycle. I don't want to be due in August as that's when my DS3 was born. It'll be a nice break I think. We'll see what happens after that. DH is getting sick of all the actively ttc stuff. He just wants to go back to NTNP. I have to say that I'm starting to lean more towards that too. I'm playing with not temping next cycle. It makes me way too crazy. It's easier just to go with the flow and bd when I get a positive opk. We'll see because at the end of the day, I'm still a control freak, lmao!

XX you are killing me by not testing!!! Lol give me some good news ... (no pressure!!! :P)

[GirlieCat]

Moma, you had previously talked about injectables next cycle, are you still considering that? Did AF come yet? Have you tested again? I know you said you were taking progesterone and I have heard AF won't come till you stop, are you still taking it? Sorry so many questions.
