New year babies !!TTC Pink in May

[stephk]

hi Marika - I am pretty sure that atomic counts from first positive OPK - if you are this worried i would definitely start a new thread or ask her. Monday night may have been the surge going up and tuesday morning may have been the surge coming back down if that makes sense? Not that I am an expert at all, I really think atomic or someone with more OPK experience is best placed to advise. If you want to up your chances of PG and are worried that you havent ovulated yet, then maybe BD tonight if you are OK with 2 attempts? I am just thinking of what I would do because like you I just want to be PG now. Good luck with deciding x

[Marika]

Thanks stephk!

Yeah, I might start a thread to ask about it. Two attempts feels really risky - I think I saw stats going down a lot with more than one. Oh, why did I have to get so stressed over missing it and bd so early?

[stephk]

I am sure that atomic or someone will put your mind at ease - pretty certain that you only count from the first positive which means your timing is perfect. However given the luck I have had with OPKs and my lack of expertise its best to get other opinions.

Hey marika if you BD at first pos opk , which it sounds like you did that was the right one I have asked atomic myself as I always get two pos opks, that said I would not stress as long as you BD on one OR the other you are still in with a good chance! Good luck honey third time lucky xxxx
Arimethia maybe start a new thread about clomid? It has great results for pink but I thought you could only get it if you are losing ovulation? Again atomic will know!! Honey I hear you on cycle attempts!! I'm on my 4th and its hard. What have you dropped?
Bethwade long time since we have heard from you good to see you back....really hope may is your month too, its hard when you have been here a while what are you thinking of adding/ changing?xxxxx

Thanks kitkat! Well, we BD 24 hours before first positive so thats why I am afraid there will be a too long cut off, depending on when egg actually releases.

Started a new thread about it so hopefully atomic can give me some advice.

Three days should be the longest, but hopefully I'll o sooner, like tonight, and then it'll only be 48 hours.

I so wish I was symptom spotting with you all, I'm cd47 todag and still no sign of af. Anyone got any ideas of how I can help kickstart ov? Im getting desperate now

I'm hearing you lyagilr! I'm on day 56 of my 2nd clomid cycle. I've just taken a 10 day course of primolut N (progesterone) to bring on AF but still no sign. So disheartening!

Hi ladies!

Just poking my head in to say a quick 'hello' and that I hope to be joining you here for TTC May. Ironically I was considering skipping April due to DS#1 birthday but as it turned out I'm waiting for AF to arrive since my March cycle so that 'choice' wasn't really an option in the end anyway! Not entirely sure what's happening with my body, I have had some weight gain on clomid and primolut n which was disappointing but I feel like my fertility has very much declined so I don't think the gain will impact my pink sway as much as I was initially worried it would. Anyway, we'll see. At this point I'm keen to give it one more shot on 100mg clomid (my doctor has upped my dose to 150mg but I'm reluctant without the monitoring) and if we don't fall preg then I'm considering having a break from everything for awhile and just focusing on what I have and my amazing two boys I have been beyond blessed with. I've been having some real up's and down's about the process lately so getting to a point where I feel I need to step away a little and trust in God, no matter the outcome.

GL to those of you with attempts coming up soon! xx

flowergirl, welcome and thats a great attitude to have. I am sorry you are having long cycles. Hopefully May will be a lucky month for all of us

[Marika]

Hi Flowergirl!

Hope to see you joining us here in May :-) Sorry to hear about your cycle, hope you get it in order again.

Marika - if you want to increase your chances of pregnancy, then I would go ahead with the second attempt. I DTD a day before my positive last month and here I am....I'm sure that isn't true for everyone, but this month I'm taking a different approach. I'm on a mission! I plan to DTD Thursday and again on Sunday. I don't know if that counts as 4 days or 3 days between attempts, but I want a baby and I want it NOW :P So I'm fiddling around.

I forget, how many cycles is this for you? It's only my second and I'm dang impatient!!!
