May 2018 TTC & 2ww thread

Is anyone else having trouble accessing their private forum? I can't seem to get to mine and I renewed it today.
Trying to plan ahead for E4D... starting day after AF, is it Monday-Friday (if day after AF is Monday)? Will be away from home for a week and finding opportunities for attempts will be challenging.

Hey garfan, I think it can be mon/thurs or mon/friday. We did e4d plus one this cycle using mon/thurs pattern

Ed4 is the timeframe, 72-96 hrs. Its not specifically a day of the week. When we did E4d pattern we varied between every 3-4 day pattern, so 72-96 hours. So don't wait for a monday or a thursday or a friday... just start and go from there.

Clearblue digital errored on me. Guess I'm starting tomorrow. My wondfo was pretty light, as expected. This wait is just as stressful as the TWW. I find it even more stressful right now because I'm trying hard to do LE diet, get attempts in, etc. After O, there's nothing to do except wait.

Funny story. Tell me if you've ever had this thought.
I picked up a chicken sandwhich yesterday at arby's while traveling and as I was exiting I held the door for a couple with 5 boys, about 7 & under. My first thought...i need to give her this group's info.

Thanks, it sounds like E4D can vary within the same cycle from 72-96. Does anyone know if there are reasons to try for 72 instead of 96? I imagine 96 cuts the odds of conception quite a bit but sways harder pink.

I'm still trying to get access to my private forum, not sure what the delay is but I'll keep trying.

Well this morning I woke up and had to pee soooooo badly. I took a CB digital pregnancy text and it said Not Pregnant. They say to use FMU but would it affect it if my urine was seriously diluted? It was seriously one of the biggest pees I’ve had in a long time. I am probably clutching at straws. 14 dpo...

I will probably go buy more FRER.

CB digitals require some of the highest HCG on the HPT market. I think it's like 50miu? Say your first test was a positive at like 20miu, which I think FRERs tend to be 20-25, adequate doubling to 50 would be 3 to 4 days after that first one! So awhile! I'd stick with the pink line tests!

Yea, 72 hours is better odds of conception and 96 hours is better for pink. But both are good pink tactics. From what I've read most sperm will only live up to 72 hours so I think you're better "covered" with a viable attempt with that version. With 96 hours there's more likelihood that you'll end up with 2 badly timed attempts.

In addition to what TP said my FMU tests are always a LOT lighter than SMU or TMU (or really any test done after a couple hour hold). I've seen huge differences between a FMU test and one done a few hours later - even when the FMU looks more concentrated. It's so weird! FX!!!!

I've had that thought more then once when seeing mamas of boys! But then I'll see moms with both genders and I think yeaaaaaaa they probably didn't do any swaying to get those, LOL!!!
