Anyone hoping for a New Year's BFP?!?!

Forums New posts
Good luck, Blondie! Do you usually get any telltale signs that you have Oed other than temps?

Over here, 6 dpo today. Excited that implantation COULD happen over the next couple of days. I am keeping my fx this is the month!
 
Ladies, please help! Does anybody see anything? I think I do. Then I think I don't. I'm driving myself bonkers!

TIA

I feel like something is definitely drawing my eye. But if those are the one step brand pregnancy tests I do have to warn that they are notorious for giving really realistic looking evaps I guess. Not sure if they are dye runs or what because they show up within the time limit, but I was getting tonnes of them my first cycle and I wasn't pregnant. Not saying that what's happening, just be careful.
 
When I zoomed in on my computer, I do see a line. It's very faint, but I see it clearly, and it's past the point of the evap/wicking mark (the pinkish color on left side), so it's promising. If I were you I'd keep testing daily!
 
So my last three opks from yest were the darkest I got and today they have gotten progressively lighter, to the point of the last one being barely visible. I'm calling yest a positive and assuming I surged overnight. Today I'm having strange dull crampiness and stabbing on my left ovary area, so I think I'll probably ovulate tonight (if it isn't already happening)!! What with this morning's 0.4 degree temp dip, if my temp goes up tomorrow, I'll be officially in the TWW!!

Ok so I thought I would be 3dpo today, but now I'm not so sure. My thermometer had displayed three very different temps on what I thought was 2dpo. I took the middle temp as the correct one. Later that day I noticed my cervix was still high and soft as if I hadn't ovulated yet. I don't tend to check my cervix but I was confused about that mornings temp so I decided to check. The thermometer battery died this morning before I could take my temp so right now I'm not sure where I'm at. I'm going to get a new battery today for it and I'll see what tomorrow's temp is. Why do things like this happen right on ovulation, I mean it could have happened any other time in my cycle, but no! Lol. I'm also thinking that the last couple of temps could be incorrect from the battery being low, I'm not sure.

Blondie- I completely understand. I'm having similar snafoos going on. My thermometer didn't stop but my temps are all over the place. They've been consistent for the last 4 months so now I'm like huh, what's going on!

I just tried checking my cervix too. My cycle is going so quick. It was high one day then it changed the next. My body changed a lot this cycle. I'm wondering what the rapid/ daily changes mean? FF said that I ovulated way earlier than usual-5days early. Now I'm worried we missed my O day. The OPK gave a negative then the very next day it was Peak positive.

I can't wait to test this cycle. I want an IUI or at least some meds next month if it is a:bfn:
 
Sugar - can I see your ff chart? Also, do you temp orally or vaginally? Remember that sperm can last UP TO FIVE DAYS, especially with the help of ewcm or preseed.
 
13 dpo....BFN. I really thought this would be it grrrr. Just waiting for the witch.
 
Blondie-- that is so frustrating! You're right, it always seems to happen around o time! I hope the new thermometer gives you good information.

Querida-- Hoping that a you caught a plump and happy egg and you see a temp rise. :)

Sugar-- There is still a likelihood you caught the egg if you've been bd'ing every other day or even every third day. FX for you!

August-- As you know, you're not out til you're out. No witch yet means still some hope. You know how long it can take to show enough HCG! Especially if you implanted 3 or so days ago, you wouldn't see it until a few more days. Are you getting AF feelings?


AFM, I am not sure what in the world my body is doing. I'm feeling very lost and out of control this cycle, and that grouchiness has made me not want to BD much, so that certainly doesn't help things. I'm on 8th day of flashing smiley today (CD 20), even though strip OPKs were darkest on CD 10-11 so I should be past O now if I did O. Then I thought maybe my body tried but it didn't work so it was gearing back up... but if so it's still gearing, and I never ever have cycles longer than 30 days, so even if my body O'd soon, it would be too late. I'm annoyed that I didn't start temping until this week. I'm annoyed that I didn't start the digi OPKs until CD 12 when I may have O'd sooner given the near-positive strip opks before that. Grrrr. At this point I'm not even mad at those terrible flashing smileys any more. I just want this cycle to be over because it's been too stressful!
 
Miss....I've been cramping and that's about it. My temp is still up, even though I have been taking it about 1 1/2 hours early. Guess we will see. I'm just not feeling very hopeful. Have you started temping??

Well I tested on Christmas Eve because I didn't want to have a couple drinks without knowing. BFN. No period yet and will be CD38 tomorrow, but I don't even know when or even IF I ovulated, only thought I did :-/. Waiting until January 10 now to test again. I'm trying so hard to keep my hopes up, but honestly I'm expecting another BFN or random period.

Are you charting or doing OPKs? FX!

Sorry for the long delay before replying... yours got buried and didn't see it! I try OPKs every once in a while, but I get very, very frequent LH surges without ovulation with PCOS, so often I'll get them for 20 days in a row... not very helpful! Temping stresses me out... I rarely have periods on my own, and the one time I o'ed I was on Femara... when I temped I waited months and months for a period or a temp spike, so I gave up. I rather wish I'd done it this cycle, but I'm between specialists right now and thought to "take a break" from stressing, so I was surprised when I even *thought* I'd o'ed. I actually am again beginning to think I wasn't imagining it, but it's just a waiting game right now!

I'm also 13 DPO and still getting BFNs but I'm also told by FF to wait till 18 DPO so I'm just gonna hold out the next couple of days and test again on Thursday or Friday morning. I also have bloodwork Friday so we'll see what happens

Looks like I missed a lot!

AFM: Took a little posting break over the holidays to spend time with family and friends. I'm still exhibiting lots of symptoms, nausea, frequent urination, boobs are quite sore and tender, lack of sex drive, extremely tired.
 
AugustBride-- Yep, I started temping 5 days ago because just to get in the habit. It's not very helpful yet as I started on cycle day 15 of what is expected to be a 26-30 day cycle (or typically is, anyway). My temps have ranged from 98.13-98.45, so no big drops or rises in the short time frame I've temped. I'm glad I started temping because it will at least allow me to look for the potential drop before AF.
 
Just popping in to say hi :wave:
Chugging along on CD 5 - 3 days of Femara down 2 to go.
I'm not sure if it's from the LONG LP from being on Progesterone, a side effect of the Femara, the endo, or just luck of the draw - but AF is NOT treating me nicely this month. She's sticking around longer than usual, getting a lot of bright red bleeding (usually it's only a day, and the rest brown), and my insides have felt like I'm on fire for days. Oh well, she's definitely on her way out - she's just taking her sweet time this time.
Good news is AF is so bad, I haven't even noticed the Femara symptoms that made me stop taking it last month lol.

Querida- I temp orally. I don't want to wash the thermometer every morning! Lazy I know. :dohh:

We used Preseed but looks like we DTD on O day and the next 2 days. I'm trying to attach my Chart. Never did it before so not sure how or how to email it to ya.

Let's see if this works.
 
Okay I have been super busy as soon as I have time to sit down and catch up I will.

Your chart is looking so fantastic! I hope this is it!

Had a temp drop this morning at 8 dpo. I don't think it is anything, because I had one last month around this time too! And no real symptoms to speak of. The wait continues...
 
Tested again this morning @ 14dpo/14dpiui....:bfn: Just hanging out waiting for ol' faithful :coffee:
