April testers

[swimmyj1]

Welcome TTC100!!! sorry to hear that this month wasn't it for you. Hope April is it

Does anyone usually have sore breasts before AF? I usually do and this month I only had them for a day now nothing. I'm dpo 11 tested this morning and got a BFN. My friends didn't get their BFP until after dpo 15 so i'm trying not to lose hope this month. Any one have anything like it?

sore breasts can be a AF sign, but apparently if its sides its AF, but if its the entire boob it can be a pregnancy symptom

 

[FLArmyWife]

I normally dont but this time I did. the nips were sore so I guess it was a sign of AF for me but I know for many it's a sign of BFP

 

[swimmyj1]

AF showed up early I ended up making an appointment with my doctor on the 7th and I'm going to see if I can get her to give me clomid. I figure honeymoon + clomid might be pretty good odds lol. Hope you all get fairy dust this month!

I'm currently on cycle day 17 and It's my first month using OPKs. I'm pretty sure I got a positive last night and since I had a decent line the night before we BD this morning. I'm going to test with OPK again at 2pm but also BD around 9 or 10am today haha. Also, I have a longer cycle obviously, so I'm just going to continue to use OPKs until negative again then start TWW? Hoping to test around April 18-20th

10 dpo today, i tested BFN yesterday.

from 5-10 dpo i have been dipping OPK´s just for feeding my pcos addiction, and interestingly it became darker and almost positive this morning with firsst morning urine

I have another hpt, that im saving for when i will miss my period.

I have read that for some its a good sign, and i have also heard it c0uld be a lh surge before af.

hope its a good sign, meanwhile

Mina- do you chart your BBT? It really helps tp identify when O occured. This cycle I switched to clearblue digital OPKs due to frustration with the strip style ones. The strip ones are cheap but if I hadn't been using digitalis I Probaly would have stopped BD too early due to my O being 3 days later than normal.

I kind of BBT but I never sleep at the same time and wake up a lot to urinate due to massive amounts of water intake haha so it's never the same time and it varies so much there's practically no point I'm going by the strip and by my CM this month and hoping that's good enough haha

Ms. Bsky - my friend kept doing the opk's after ovulating and they got darker as AF was closer and got a BFP that month so thats a good sign!! I think i need to start temping. With working nights its really hard to do but at this point I want more reassurance lol

 

[Ms.Bsky]

jeyj, i hope it is a good sign


About temping, i started temping right before ovulation this month, i confirmed it with opk´s, the temps started low and then in the luteal phase they were higher. Now im 11dpo and my temps dropped this morning, bfn this morning. My luteal phase is usually like 13-14 days. There are 2 reasons for a drop, implantation or before af . But 11 dpo is kind of early for AF temp drop, but still quite late for implantation dip. Anyhow, i should have waited with testing until tomorrow, because it wont be bfp until a day after a temp dip.

On the other heand maybe i didnt get my o date right and my af is closer then i thin, i think ill also switch to the digital opk, but they are not so cheap..

this is my chart

The digitalis are really expensive. So much easier to interperet though. I will let you know in a little over a week if they helped me get a BFP.

Has anyone tried preseed? I'm thinking of giving it a try. kksquared I hope when i get back from my honeymoon i see you have gotten ur BFP

 

[lemon_tree]

I'm out for April so I'll be heading over to the May thread.

Good luck, everyone!

I used preseed this cycle and thought it was helpful for making BD more comfortable some days. I also don't get a ton of EWCM most cycles so I am hoping it helps.

Thanks for the encouragement 8 days till testing!

 

[Ms.Bsky]

yes, i bought preeseed once as part of a package with hpt's and opk's on amazone. It was nice, i think ill buy it again.

Im now 12-13 dpo, and my temperatures are still dropping, so im afraid AF is coming. Im excited to see what temp i will have in the morning.. hopefully skyhigh!!!

The opk's are still quite dark, but not positive. I'm not testing until at least 9-10th of april. I dont have any symptoms, just some mild dull heavy feeling of uterus. ahh yes, i checked my cervix... it was medium high, very soft and maybe a little open.. not that i know if that means anything

Tomorrow i have a 24 hour shift.. so i hope AF wont show up ... it would be less than optimal haha

Well im still FX, it aint over until AF comes

Good luck to all, i wish everyone of you a BFP asap!

 

[Ms.Bsky]

bring preseed to the honeymoon!

 

[swimmyj1]

So i saw my doctor yesterday and she defiantly recommended that I bring pre-seed on my honeymoon. She also gave me a script for metformin to start when I get back. I have regular cycles but we aren't sure I ovulate every month and I have some of the other physical signs of PCOS (unexpained weight gain, acne after stopping BC). Hoping that I won't need it but at this point I'm willing to try anything lol. I'll let you guys know if the preseed works in a few weeks hope when I come back from my honeymoon you guys have gotten some BFP

 

[Ms.Bsky]

af arrived on time 14 dpo...

off to next month. good luck to all of you guys

Preseed and digital OPKs work! Got my BFP yesterday and a digital this morning with use of both.
