63 (&counting) Lucky MARCH testers come together!

Yesterday is on top, today below. It's hard to see in the pic but in real life it's pretty obvious today's is more faded than yesterday

I see that Blo!! FX'd it gets darker and is sticky :)

Teacherlynn- A friend of mine had to do those shots also. She said they get better each time but its good to hear that it wasnt so bad! FX'd this is your month!!

Bella- I'm sorry this cycle hasn't worked out. How long have you been on femara? Don't lose hope. I can't imagine what you're feeling, but when the day comes that you finally get your BFP, it will all be worth it. <3

Wrapunzel- You may have just missed the surge. That darker one could have been on the way up or the way down? Keep Bd'ing just in case ! lol Have your temps had a spike?

Afm- temp went back down this am and FF moved my crosshairs but it still doesn't fit. I am 99.9% sure I haven't ovulated. Got another *almost* on my opk today. What on earth is going on! Last cycle i didn't have any fade ins. It was a faint line one day and a blazing positive the next. Now I have had a full week of VERY dark but not quite positives.. ugh.
 
Tbfromlv, thanks so much. Was your friend successful with the injections?

I'm sorry your struggling with O. I went through that last cycle and it's very frustrating. Have you seen a doctor regarding that?
 
What do you mean by missed the surge? Like if I'd taken one last night instead of only in the morning it would have been a true positive? Doesn't really matter in terms of whether the BD was timed well or not does it?

I don't temp yet because the BBT thermometer I bought died after less than a week of use lol. BD yesterday and again on Wednesday and Thursday. Best I can do this cycle while we aren't living together yet. I wish I'd thought to use a SoftCup to keep the results of yesterday's BD in...
 
Teacherlynn- My friend found out she had a blocked tube so it didn't end up working with her but she is getting IVF Next month!

I went to the doctor in January because my cycles have been all over the place (30, 153, 70, 40 days) and she kind of told me to "just keep trying" and taking opks daily.. she said if I don't get pregnant on my own by May, she will see me again and probably prescribe something. But here we are mid march and I have ovulated once since December.

Wrap- Your surge could have been super short- I think I read it can be as short as 4 hours. So if you only tested once that day, it could have come and gone. That's why it is good to also temp, so you can confirm that you did O because you would have a spike.
 
I'm sorry you're having such trouble with your cycles. Mine are very regular apart from the effect of Vitex Berry making my LP longer. I have VERY strong O symptoms every month and I had an unplanned pregnancy years ago so I really doubt I'm not ovulating...

I've read that even after a positive OPK the ovulation itself can occur anywhere from 12 to 72 hrs later so I really don't see any reason to use multiple OPKs a day, for now. If I'm still not knocked up by summertime perhaps that wil change :shrug:
 
Wrap- Oh yeah, I definitely wasn't suggesting you weren't O-ing or anything. Just that you might have missed the surge of the LH hormone on your OPK. If you're getting all the O symptoms, then FX you get your BFP in a few weeks :)
 
Oh lol. I got confused. I feel like I caught the surge enough to know it happened because it was so much darker than the previous two days I checked and faded again today.

Radkim, I'm sorry! I hope she's gentle with you this month and better luck next cycle
 
Sorry Johnsa. I was rooting for you after you had those flutters!
 
Sorry johnsa I had high hopes for you but good luck next cycle.

Afm temp went down today by .2 so pretty sure im out. I guess the good thing about this cycle is that I have st least a 12 day lp as af hasnt arrived yet and my cycle will be bsck to 28-30 days

Well just tested and bfn so thats me out good luck to all of you still going sending you all lots of :dust:
 
Sorry to those who are out :(

Afm:
Approximately 5dpo today and I swear I'm having to pee like every half hour! All I've had to drink today was maybe half a cup of decaffeinated tea before I went to work. I know it's not a uti but it's too early for this to be a possible symptom! Urrgh
 
Sorry to those who are out this month.

Afm, still waiting to O. Thinking it will happen Wednesday or Thursday. We are about to get hit with a Noreaster (winter storm Stella) and OH's work is closed for the next few days. Perfect timing. If I get pregnant this cycle I may just have to name the baby Stella...lol
 
Sorry for those who are out :-(

I am about to enter my two week wait soon because I just got my IUI done this morning. My doctor said it was an "ideal cycle" because I have three follicles and my husband had a good sperm count. Ahh.. that makes me nervous. I am very happy of course to have such a great cycle, but nervous because I am afraid of getting my hopes up more than usual and then getting AF. We'll BD tonight and tomorrow, and then my wait will officially begin.

My doctor said if I don't get pregnant this cycle, she will switch me to Femara next cycle because Clomid is drying me out so much that even with Preseed intercourse burned. Here's hoping the pain won't be too bad, so I can BD as planned today and tomorrow!
 
By the way... I am trying to figure out how people do the whole signature thing. I went to lilypie.com and got an html code (?), but as you can see, it's not working, so I must be doing something wrong.
 
So sorry for those who are out this month :(

Lar I'm so excited for you and hoping you see a bfp in a couple weeks!! You need the HTML code I believe.

AFM I finally O'd on Friday/Saturday so I'm a couple dpo but waiting for my chart to confirm :) I'll start testing at 10dpo probably!
 
Tdfromlv, sounds to me like you may need another opinion/doctor. Is your current doctor a fertility doctor? My original obgyn wasted 7 months by putting me on meds and never sending me for tests and never monitored whether or not the meds were working.
 
Looks like I'm out seems like af is making an appearance 3 days early. Im absolutely gutted. Feels like another kick in the gut. Trying not to cry...clutching onto straws thinking it could be late implantation. But that really is clutching
 
Lar you need the BBC code with the [] brackets not the HTML with the <>

I am so sorry kitkez. I know how that feels. Be gentle with yourself and give yourself the time and space you need to recover emotionally. :hugs:

Where do you line Nuthatch? I'm up in Maine about to get blasted with it too. But Hubby and I are living 70 min apart right now and I just O'd so.... no storm baby Stella for us haha
