6 DPO...& ...POAS until positive!

OK Meg I went back to have a look & while your test line is very dark, it does not look as dark as the control line. This is where I found it tricky because it can look so positive esp. with that thin line on the left of it which always seems SO dark. I would consider this almost positive...as in it probably went up over night & that's why Tuesday it was VERY dark. I'd honestly say you Ovulated yesterday.

I really appreciate you taking another look for me - thanks so much Barb. I would think so too because it was exceptionally dark on tuesday... makes me feel a bit better for the BD'ing last night too?? lol

Ok so 1DPO I will call myself today then... here we go!!
 
Yeah I'd say you're A-OK lady :) You did well for BD timing, don't even worry.
Do you use Fertility Friend to track BD, OPK & your period? I dont temp anymore but I use it when we are trying on our own to book when we have sex & when I get positive OPK & it rates my intercourse timing.
 
Can you fly when your pregnant i know u cant towards the end but what about the earlier stages?

Generally it's safe however there is a small chance for miscarriage. Second trimester is the best time to travel by air. But you can consult with your doctor.

No I dont - i didnt know it did that without temping - do you use the website or an app? let me know and I will do it for sure! :) thanks
 
Hiya Ladies!

Happy Friday

I am 2DPO so not much going on but a long wait ahead of me....

Hubby and I are leaving for the states tonight... we fly out tomorrow morning to Vegas so we are going to shop a bit tonight and go for dinner near the airport hotel. I am very excited I really need a break!

I will check in today again for sure. I dont know how much I will be able to log in when I am gone but I will certainly try to! Just depends on the wifi situation lol... I will miss you guys.

I brought my 2 pack of FRER in my suitcase... I am due for AF 2 days after I get back so why not lol.... ahhhhhh
 
Hey Meg,

It's not just for temping. I use it also to keep track of my period. You can keep track of all symptoms including your CM. I have the phone app but you can also log on through a computer.

Yay for you!!! You must be SO excited. I hope you have a really great time & that you can just reeeelaaaaaaaaaxxxxx!!! Wishing you the best & Happy early Birthday!!! XO
Don't worry about us, we'll be OK albeit we'll miss you too. Just enjoy & we'll hear when you get back. When are you back?
Good plan on the FRER...WHY not indeed :) xoxoxox

I know lol - but who isnt going to use an FRER when they have them?? haha.... impossible!!!

I am back on the 22nd in the evening - gone for 8 days. But I will definitely check in even if its for a few minutes.:hugs:

Thanks for the Bday wishes :)
 
Good morning! I'm so stressed. It's why I've been a stranger...work....mostly...as u know clinic closing, but I'm also active in my union and so many issues at my work from mismanagement, bullying, intimidation etc I'm putting too much pressure on myself to help everyone, solve things, get their grievances in order etc. I sort of had a mini breakdown at work lol, just a little cry out back. A long time client had to come in as their little dog had a stroke over night and died- we'd just seen her the day before and had her set up on 3 new heart medications, a referral to a specialist...and then this. I think it was the last straw for me, so I had a wee cry:sad2:

Also a co-worker sought my advice on the morning after pill or Plan B. Her and bf had unprotected sex and don't want a baby yet...sigh...she doesn't know I'm TTC. It was a bit hard but I personally think if you're not ready, don't do it. I guess there are people all around me pregnant or not even trying and ending up so!

I'm supposedly 6 DPO. I feel so positive of where we are and how much we BD so I'm scared I will be let down. This stress obviously isn't helping much either. I can't afford it but may drive up to Kelowna to visit a dear old gf tomorrow...perhaps will help me.

I tried to catch up a little...enough to see Meg you're off on a vacation you bum! So jealous. Enjoy it. You've deserved it. Sun, BD'ing, being a silly tourist, hanging out by the pool, SHOPPING- embrace it....

And Nat? A ring??? I'm tickled pink for you....

I know there's more but I only made it a few pages in before I had to write...love to you all xoxoxox:hugs:
 
Hello Ladies!!

Chere, I have always had the thigh problems ;) But they're worse now lol.
Damn we just need to learn to love our bodies right?
Good for you getting in so much BD! Crossing my fingers for you. Are you temping?
Sounds like a lovely weekend...most of mine was inside organizing my house but it was so hot out & then all this rain yesterday. It's been a super wet summer here in Toronto so far :(

Nat, I see you're following me on Pinterest!! I am following you as well :)
Do you have a Facebook account?
You are very welcome for the info...I hope it helps you! The CoQ unfortunately upsets my stomach. But I did do tests & my egg reserves are great. So I'm not concerned.
As for diet, you need to exercise too - are you? If you're restricting your body its likely your body is holding onto the fat for calorie reserves. Eventually it will stop doing it...but you'll need to also burn the calories. Since I started running I haven't lost any weight either...I have some fat on my belly area I really want gone. Oh & the wobbly thighs K thanks :)LOL

Lilflu: glad to hear about pup & sorry about the MS...there are meds if its really unbearable...

YUP Nat...boring CD5! I just wanna get this show on the road. I hope that the progesterone suppliment wont be too bad. I have a camping trip the weekend proceeding my IUI & I just wanna enjoy it :)

Meg, how are you doing ? How is your OPK coming along???xox

xoxoxo

I usually do love my body Barb but been so damn lazy lately. I am charting/temping and Ovufriend keeps changing O date. It was July 4 so looked like we really got in alot, now it's July 6 and missed a few days if so! Wondering if I should just give up and we aim to have sex every second day through entire cycle! LOL

Hi chere :flower:
Just tried to click on your chart but i don't think the link is working ....
Do you have any other signs of when you ovulate?
O pains? Sore bbs?...usually when you have ovulated your chart should show a rise in temp for three days...the day this started is the day you o'd...
Have you thought about ordering some opks online?....amazon have a great selection love...and at a fair price...it really dose take a lot o'd confusion out of the cycle.:thumbup:
Hope your ok chere...welcome to the ttw.:happydance: and I have my fx for you love.:flower:

:) :) :) xxx

Hey Nat- here is link, I'll have to check my sig!!! Not sure why not working:

Chere - good to hear from you hun I wondered where you went :)

Im sorry things are stressful. It sounds like you may be taking on a bit too much? Dont forget to take care of YOU. You in general, and you for TTC. Our bodies dont respond well to stress. You hear a lot about women who took a month "off TTC to relax" and got pg... I think stress has something to do with it for sure.

As far as your chances this cycle go, you have done everything you can and you did a great job! Its ok to be excited and hopeful. But I understand the worry about the let down - we all do - you are in good company for that lol. But you did well and its not much longer for you in this 2WW!

Do you have any cheapies?

We are here for you Chere:hugs:
 
Hey ladies!! How are ya?! Been crazy busy this past few weeks. And the crazy busy wont end until after the first of August!!! Well AF got me today... Sorta starting to get frustrated! I know y'all have been at it longer.... And now I am starting to understand better how annoying it is to see af!
I can't decide if I am going to try or try not to try this cycle lol.... My 10year class reunion is the first week of August so I might try to concentrate more on weight loss these next few weeks. Lol true story!
Hope y'all are having a fabulous day!! We are throwing my mom a surprise 50th bday tonight so I am super excited about that!!! Everyone have a great weekend

You can vent to us anytime.:flower:

One thing I have learnt over the years of ttc..is that we have to take the rough with the smooth...even tho it's sucks...it strengthens us too.:)
I hope you are feeling better now love.

Natalieexo: I really not sure on the flying thing...I hear if you do fly you have totake aspirin/claxine...to thin the blood...I think the other girls have covererd the basics pretty fine enough for you tho.:)

Well ladies...tmr I am sure I will let you all know how the opks are going...:)

Thank you! I know you all are here- I just retreated and got stressed and tried to do it all on my own....we did create a petition today and hoping to get over 8,000 signatures (we have 10, 000 clients. If you think BIG BUSINESS and corporations don't belong in the health care, namely pets for this one lol, please sign https://cope378.nationbuilder.com/ and I'd love you for it!

Yeah we had a good run of it this cycle. If it's a BFN then, it's off to doctor. So many things lined up for summer though....

Must make time....for me :)

Tomorrow we're off to find a secluded piece of river (hard in the city but this is my mission). We'll go and sit in the river...
