2013!!!!! January Testers!(140) (40) BFPs! 9 Angels Come find a Buddy today!!!!

[AmaryllisRed]

Yeah, I saw that!! It's hard without just DOING it for someone else.

Well looks like I o'd 4 days later than I usually do. ff still wants to say I am 9dpo, but 2 other charting sites say I didn't o until cd17 So can we please change my testing date to the 12th? I know I will test earlier, but that is when af is due. Thanks! My tww just got a little longer!

I agree with the CD 17, did you stop OPKs after the one on CD 12? I read about the follicular wave phenomenon where women can have multiple LH surges in a single cycle and typically only ovulate on the last one.

And just double-checked - your temps from last cycle are consistent with ovulating CD 17 on this one, approximate coverline about 97.5 and LP temps 97.9+.

Thanks for looking Clandestine! Yes, I typically get 5-7 days of pos opk's and they stayed pos until cd17 this cycle. I just usually o on cd13 or 14, so I didn't expect this. And my temps did rise, just a little. But I did have big o pains, HSO cervix. The only thing that doesn't fit is my cm. Wish I had bd'd more now. At least I got one in 2 days before.

@kel21 from everything I've read, your temps followed by OPKs are your best indicators. CM is a "secondary" indicator - and there's a lot that can affect it day-to-day. I'd put my eggs in the basket with your OPKs and temps. What I read (maybe on FF's guide) was to keep DTD until you have a sustained temp shift to confirm ovulation. Since you have enough prior cycle data to know your LP temps seem to go above the 97.5, I'd use that (or somewhere near it) as a reference coverline for yourself if your O-2 BD did work this time, though I'd say you're still in the running as much as the rest of us!

Congrats ladies on BFPs!
GL & FXed for everyone else!!!

 

[ZombieKitten]

I'm feeling out. Chart is out of whack, ovulation doesn't look promising. Won't be testing this month. Good luck to the rest of you ladies! hope you all get your 's !!!

 

[MrsMM24]

As promised...... to help ease the stress.

You MUST keep in mind that this is based on a 28-30 day cycle. So if you know that yours is shorter or longer, you have to tweak the numbers or days a little.... GL Ladies

January!!!

This is just an idea of the timing, give or take a day ladies!

This really only works/makes sense to look at if you know (based on temp drop or specific digi monitor) the exact Ovulation day.

AFTER IMPLANTING HCG does not build up enough to show on an HPT or Blood test for 2-3 days! Keep this in mind... Implantation can occur as late as 12DPO!


(Just to keep us in perspective... The thread moves quickly and everyone can't keep up as it does or are new to the thread and haven't read back. I think this will give some good motivation in the middle of the week!)

*Thanks DEBZIE*

 

[Mrs. 2010]

I'm out starting spotting today so AF should start tomorrow. Please add me for the 30th Thanks. My cycle is on time every time. At least I didn't waste a test this time.

Congrats to all the BFPs and baby dust for those who are still waiting. See y'all in about 10 days!!

Ladies wanting to Chart/temp Click on my chart in my signature, sign up for a free account there and then fertilityfriend has awesome charting and temping information to follow. It even offers courses, updates, and information from FS and OB docs to the method of charting and OV. It is truly a helpful OV tool and tool to get to know your cycle. I would totally recommend FF, because outside of a doctor appt with U/S you cannot count on CM or OV pains to say OV happened nor can you use the 14-day rule alone GL


Please look at page 41 once you have OV confirmed and before you start testing, for motivation on the chase! GL!


I just love being able to help you all through your TTC journey. I have been running the testing threads for some time now and haven't lost steam even with a BFP to stop, so any updates on myself, I am entering in my journal, feel free to stop by!

 

[KitteyKat2010]

So I thought I had gotten my period yesterday and I didn't so I have no idea what is going on with my body, I never had implantation bleeding when I was pregnant with #1 but we shall see

I don't think it's as bad as you think it is. I'd guess it's going to go back up tomorrow, but it's definitely biphasic either way.

Question about low dose aspirin...
I've always had a LOT of clotting with my periods, although I don't know how I compare to "normal". I've read tons about the benefits if low dose aspirin on improving placental blood flow and decreasing the risk of early miscarriage. I know it will have no impact on miscarriage caused by chromosomal abnormalities. Can it hurt to take the aspirin in the event that my 2 miscarriages are of a clotting issue? Anyone have a doctor either recommend (or advise against) the aspirin? For those who take it, do you start at day 1 or around ovulation? I'm about 6dpo, so I'm wondering if I'm too late to have it make an impact at this point in my cycle. Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Tower- so happy everyone helped you get your chart up!

I've had 2 miscarriages as well and no answer to why. My doctor tested my blood for the clotting disorder and said I didn't have it. I asked him about baby aspirin before that test and he said it really doesn't do anything. He said if I did have the clotting disorder I would need a lot more than a baby aspirin to help. He didn't advise against it or for it. I decided on my own to take it. I started it a few months ago and I just take it everyday. I add it to my typical vitamin regimen but I know some ladies don't start until after they O. I read something way back when about it helping with egg production and possible multiples if you take it at the beginning of your cycle as well. Who knows. My doctor is a little unconventional though. He also believes that progesterone supplement don't do a thing for you. Sometimes I don't take is medication advice with a lot of weight. Either way I don't think it will hurt for you to take it. Some women say they bruise easily on it so you'll just have to see.

 

[luna_19]

Babyhopes from what I've heard taking baby aspirin is fine. I don't think it's too late to start as it will start thinning your blood right away. (i took it for one cycle just to try it but stopped because I was bruising so easily )

 

[lorojovanos]

Holy, gone for 3 hours and crazy BFP's!!!!

Can any of you girls offer me some insight into my chart? I temp vaginally, at the exact same time every day...

 

[HWPG]

i was taking it and my dr said to stop - i think because even low dose long term isnt so great for your liver. i have no miscarriage/birth history though.

 

[Dantz]

Well, I'm back for the new year with a new PMA and I'm ready for this TWW (2dpo today)! Please put me down for the 14th, even though I know I'll test before then. Congrats to all the BFPs that are already here, this month is flying and it has only just begun!
