Abundant April 2WW Thread (4)

Also ladies, how long are you holding urine before you test for opk? I've been doing ~3 hours, but have been drinking during that timeframe. Is that bad? Wondering if I'm throwing off my tests.

Okay, and one more TOTALLY tmi question... Has anyone else had vaginal childbirth and think that their cervix always feels open? I just googled CP's to see if I should start noting it and mine does go up and down, but the opening always just feels open. Is that normal?!

Max I don't know the answers to your other questions but after 4 vaginal births I can feel a difference like when I'm around O it's softer for sure right now seems super firm but I can never really tell a difference between open and closed and I can't ever tell a difference between ewcm and sperm

Pbn-so I had a small temp increase today...is that what you were referring to as a good sign?? I know it's nighttime where you are now, almost noon here on May 1st. So will you be 9dpo when you wake up???
Maxim-I had 2 c-sections, so I'm not certain I held urine for 2-3 hours before using an OPK...I'm not good at holding. I did try to limit the amount of fluids, but I did still drink fluids throughout the day. I'd love to see a pic of your girls in smocked dresses! Sounds precious! Hope I'm shopping for smocked dresses one day
Ash-sorry about the flooded basement-not fun!! Good distraction though lol. I'm not really noticing any signs today either. I have felt a little hungrier than usual and noticing a slightly overactive bladder, but there could be a number of reasons for that! Seems like I notice that sign often & it's still a BFN...so not putting much stock in that!
Iwant4-is your appt this Wednesday? If so, that's going to be one busy day for all of us!

Hi, me again After Maxim's cervix question, I realized that I need guidance on how it's supposed to feel if you are pregnant and how soon can you tell? I'm new to checking & it's hard to tell!! I think mine is soft not sure about open/closed...

I've read somewhere before Lola that it can shift as normal which at af it'll be low and firm but in early pregnancy it goes back high and firm/closed

Looks like our next thread will be may 2ww ☹️ how time flies but not fast enough when your waiting to test lol.
Iwant4kids I knew I had this picture somewhere and I'm having to sort through wet stuff from a flooded basement. I had a miscarriage in 09' and when I finally fell pregnant Freaking out is a understatement I thought I'd lost the baby because I had no symptoms, I went in for an ultrasound and they couldn't find anything nor a heartbeat. I went back in two weeks and this is the picture they found and I was 9w gestation but measuring 8w2d. Thinking of you and hope so hard that your far enough along Wednesday they can find something

Ash, this gives me such hope for Iwant4!!! Fx a sneaky hiding baby!!!
So, I've noticed one of those small, but painful hormonal cysts on my face. Now I'm worried this is related to AF & feel like I may be out before I even test ugh [emoji45]

Nice to meet you Pbn3. Thanks for the kind words.

To answer your question, it was a mid-day BD on CD 17 for us.
