@PinkCupcakes so exciting!! Good luck for this cycle!!
@MrsKatie I know I'm a few days late but your tests from Friday definitely look darker to me!
@LuvallmyH I am so sorry for your losses
I just can't imagine. Praying this month will bring you your sticky bean. I've got you down as a test date of the 26th. Is this your older kids first year heading off to school or are they just heading back for another year? I hope you all enjoy these last few weeks with everyone there! We are trying to soak up summer here before the chaos that will be virtual schooling starts. Thankfully our district pushed back our start date a couple weeks so we still have over 3 weeks left!
@Suggerhoney I'm so sorry hun that this cycle has been up and down for you. My honest opinion is there is a good chance todays temp isn't good. I would recommend either getting a new bbt or if you need to replace the batteries etc so it beeps to do so. Change in sleeping patterns (not temping the same time, broken sleep etc) will 100% effect your temp. Try again in the AM with a good temp, disregard todays and hope you see your CH come back. If you had all your normal O signs, positive OPK and confirmed on FF, I wouldn't put a lot of stock in one days temp and just disregard and move on to tomorrows temp. I'll be thinking of you hun
@aymz1983 I'm so sorry that AF came this month. Praying that when it's time for you all to give it a full on go to trying that you will see your BFP that very first cycle
@Bre1990 spotting on 11dpo sounds like it could be from implantation! KMFX for you!!
@Stargirl1993 temping can take a few months to get a good rhythm down and understand your patterns. But if it's causing you stress, I would definitely just not do it next month! Wahoo for ovulating!! I've got your test date moved to the 23rd!
@Deethehippy I'm sorry for the IBS flareup...I hope you are feeling better now I hope you enjoy your trip coming up soon!!
@doggylover i mean, if there are tests in the house you HAVE to use them, right?! lol lines are looking great!
@3 girlies no worries at all, we all understand. Good to hear from you and looking forward to chatting more when you feel ready to come back!
@Mummafrog good luck this month!! Did you ever get a positive OPK?
@xMissxZoiex welcome to the group and good luck!! I've got you down for the 24th!
@autumnal good luck with testing!! I have you under the unknown date for now but happy to move once to whenever date you'd like to be under. FX the witch stays away!!
@Hevalouaddict it looks like to me as well that you probably surged and then dropped back down in between tests. I feel like I have heard before that the day before and 2 days before are the best times to BD and get pregnant. Good luck this cycle and I hope you catch that egg!
@KitteyKat2010 ugh, I'm so sorry! Is is possible you ovulated later than you thought or were you tracking it? I hope you either get a positive or AF to show up so that you have an answer one way or the other
@FTale ugh, sorry you were sick, that's never any fun! Can't wait to test stalk you!
@KatVM I'm so sorry. Best of luck for next cycle...I'll be right there with you!
@Nixnax OMG, Congratulations!!!!! SO so so happy for you!!!! I didn't realize you've been waiting and trying for 3 years. Tears of joy for you hun, you deserve this so so much....go pee on as many sticks as you need and want to! Wishing you a very healthy and happy 9 months!
@Kimmi82 i'm so sorry. I know how hard it is. Praying that your next cycle will bring you a beautiful bfp
@DuckyBlue welcome! Good luck this cycle!! I've got you down on the 29th! Do you know when you ovulated/how many DPO you are today? Hopefully your symptoms are good signs! And I would call your doctor and discuss it with them for sure. No need to be uncomfortable!
@Becca_89 hmm...i think that's a tricky one. Do you temp as well? That can be one way to confirm O a few days after. I would recommend that if you don't catch this month, to start using OPKs multiple times a day in the couple days leading up to O. I've had it before where I went from negative, to positive and back to negative in 12 hours. So by only testing once a day would have missed it completely. Trust your body signs more than the OPKs this month is my advice
@Alligator that is so great that you are your hubby are slowly making progress. It's not going to be quick but every conversation or positive step you make brings you closer and closer to having your family all back together. Every building block you and your DH build together just makes that foundation stronger and will make it even sweeter when you are in a stronger more stable place to start trying again.
@mommy2twokj Do you know if you normally have CM around this time in your cycle? i always feel like everything is normal for both period and pregnancy in the tww....but if it's abnormal for you, then it's a good sign! With both of my pregnancies, I had creamy snot like CM in my tww, which is abnormal for me (usually stays watery). KMFX that it's a great sign for you!!
-----------------
OK, FINALLY caught up!! You all have been chatty the last few days- i love it!! I wound up not having any time at all during the day to read through hence the late reply...whoops!!
Today was a great day for me. Had a conversation with DH and we've already blocked off our BD'ing days this month lol. He usually has a couple of nights a week he will either work late at the office or come home and keep working in our home office so had to make sure those days were blacked out on his calendar so he would be home. This next cycle I'm set to ovulate in and around August 30th (a Sunday) which means we will get a weekend to be having our BD'ing marathon. I told him we need to get it done this month because next month will be the middle of the week. He works 10-12+ hour days so work days are hard because he's exhausted! So we are going to put our everything into this month and just pray it works!!

The older two are working and ages 18 and 20 so should be ok to look after themselves for a few days! I will leave them food. I am glad AF isn't being too brutal and I hope your head clears soon.
