Good luck indigoviolet! I felt the same for our attempt because I got my +OPK earlier than expected! Are you having just one attempt?

That's great news squamgirl, well done to your DH.

[indigoviolet]

Thanks for all the luck ladies I need it! trying to keep ph down as havn't O'd yet. Hopefully lots of girlie swimmers waiting for egg to pop either tonight or tomorrow
Ended up having 2 attempts, fri and tonight, fri was a 10 day abstinence don't know if that makes any difference since we have dtd again before O?

Squamgirl- exciting news, have you made a decision whether he will take the job?

[squamgirl]

He is taking the job He starts in just over three weeks. In the meantime, we'll be meeting with realtors, getting the house ready to sell, etc. If anyone has any tips- please share. This is our first time selling a home.

[indigoviolet]

I'm so excited I could burst! I don't have a huge number of friends IRL, but two of my female friends were expecting and both were due around a week ago (within a few days of each other), and BOTH have given birth today to little baby boys! I can't wait to meet them! scrummy little newborns!

Hey all, guess I am out of the running for TTC in october. It was a wacky month. My body seemed all ready to O on CD 15--+OPK, watery CM, CP high and open, temp dip.... and then nothing. Well I got sick so I think that delayed it. Here I am on CD 22 and I think I O'ed yesterday. I got another +OPK and watery CM and today there was a BBT rise, we shall see what the temp is tomorrow. Anyway with traveling and being sick we totally missed O.

lol zana I already am!

carmella - if you could BD this morning I really think you have a good chance, especially if still got a pos OPK

[rainbowflower]

feeling quite baffled today, my CBFM finally gave me my first "high" so I thought "yay! I should OV within the next week!".
I'd taken my temp overnight so popped that into my chart and then my chart decided to tell my I actually OVed 6 days ago (!!).

I have a sore throat, so perhaps that's just what's caused my temp to be slightly higher than normal. Alternatively it could have been high because I've been BF more than normal up until the last few days when DS was poorly again, and I know that BF makes my temps go a bit haywire. It certainly isn't up to my usual post-OV temp range.

At the time it thinks I OVed I was getting EWCM but "low" on CBFM and no build up on OPKs like I normally get, and if I did OV then I had an accidental 3-day cut off which is disappointing because it means that there's less than a 10% chance of getting pregnant and I feel gutted about that seeing as this is my only TTC month before stopping for a break over Christmas to regain some weight so it feels like all my diet-efforts would have been wasted.

I've removed the temp anyway, just in case... and will proceed as if I haven't OVed yet. Plan is to get DH to release each evening, start using RepHresh tomorrow, and then the morning I get my "peak" on my CBFM we shall have our one attempt so that should be about 10hrs after his previous release.

I normally get 4-5 high days before the peak.

Our plan might be hindered as my sister has decided to come visit this weekend and my mum wants to visit next week... but fingers crossed I haven't OVed yet and we can get the timing just right!

Please wish us luck and pink dust!

Luck and pink dust coming your way rainbow!
