AUGUST buddies~ Symptom Spotting, Girl Talk & POAS party!

[KrissyB]

Smiley - CONGRATS ON THE GOOD NEWS!! That is awesome, and what a good way to head into your fertile window!

Macy - I agree it's not quite positive but close. If it takes another day or two to go positve, and another day or two after that before you ovulate - you could easily end up O'ing on CD 12-13 which would give you a pretty normal LP. So it's all good

AFM - CD2.... Cycle 6. Def not where I wanted to be but what can ya do.

 

[caringo]

More bleeding. Not quite enough to be 100% positive it's AF yet, but I'm pretty certain.

Darn it So sorry Krissy. Keep your chin up! Next month could just be your month

mammogram was benign!! yay!!

awesome smiley!!

PM test, 4.5 hr hold. Picasa still down

I think I see something on #1?? Did you take a test this AM?

AFM, body gearing up to O for the second time this cycle - hoping it succeeds this time!

Really hope you O this time around!

AFM...temps on the rise again, but slowly...every time I see a second day of rising I get really optimistic!

Question: Yesterday I got a LOT of creamy CM when going to the bathroom in the afternoon, but when I looked in the toilet I realized some EWCM had slipped out unnoticed before the creamy. I'm not sure if I should chart that I had EWCM or creamy...just because I had a lot of creamy! Also...I'm wondering if getting the creamy means I've O'd!

 

[misspriss]

picasa was still giving me the error...tried in a different browser, working! LOL

And talk about wasting a test Left....look what I did this morning. I.Should.Have.Waited.

Am I the only one that finds that my camera actually picks up lines that the eye can't see as good? I don't really see much more than barely a shadow on a lot of these, but in the pics I definitely see something a little more. I guess cameras are designed to pick up tiny detail maybe?

 

[caringo]

Haha oh no! I hate wasting FRERs!

I do still feel like I see something on the first two tests! But it's so hard to tell!

 

[DandJ]

Help. I don't know why my temp took a HUGE dip this morning, I slept fine and woke up an hour earlier than usual & took my temp. I don't believe I have O'd yet due to not having high temps (they're usually in 98* range). My cm this morning was also creamy/lotiony. Advice?

My Ovulation Chart

 

[macydarling]

Thanks Krissy! I agree. OPKs sure do make this whole thing more exciting

 

[macydarling]

MissPriss what DPO are you? I definitely see something on the FRER.

 

[misspriss]

7 or 8, I got a pos OPK on 8/6 AM, PM, and 8/7 AM. I had O pain starting 8/6 PM and lasting until 8/7 AM. I think I O'd very early in the AM on 8/7, which would put me at 7dpo early this AM. Could be 8 though....

 

[macydarling]

Still early then. I will be interested to see the progression! Question...are you supposed to keep taking OPKs after the first positive? And then if it gets lighter you ovulated and if not you still havent yet? Not sure about these things lol.

 

[misspriss]

I took OPKs until they went back to neg again. I was using a digi so no guesswork. Just kept taking until the smiley went way

And yes...waaay early. The risk of having all your HPTs already bought....I had a lot leftover from last cycle, the FRERs, digis, etc. I only bought the ICs for this cycle, so they were just sitting there, calling to me this AM....

 

[macydarling]

Thanks. I knew I should have gotten the digis but I wanted to try the others first...hmm...oh well.

I am the same with HPTs. If I have them I will use them.

 

[misspriss]

Well I only had digis because I bought them for the cycle after my chemical and they messed up badly (7 out of 20 sticks had errors) so they sent me a new box, I wouldn't have bought them again probably I was going to go with squint sticks...

 

[macydarling]

Well that makes me feel better

 

[misspriss]

LOL Yeah I wanted to see what happened to my cycle after the MC, since it was "different"..they didn't even catch a surge! They did this cycle though!

 

[macydarling]

so happy this cycle is going well for you thus far.

@krissy: sorry the witch came

@caringo: I would chart the ewcm I just hate that your cycles are so long

@Missprisss: I hope you get your bfp soon hun

@Macy: did you get a pos opk yet


Morning y’all(im so country lol)…had a dream last night I got a faint bfp on a cheapie so I went to Walmart to get a frer to confirm they didn’t have no first responses just other brands(even brands from the UK) and each test I pulled out was bfp….why couldn’t it have been real haha. Also I want to pop these Montgomery tubercles they sticking out so far you can feel them.

 

[martamok]

Thanks everyone! And hi Martamok, fancy seeing you here

I am going to try another OPK today because it honestly looked almost positive in person. Maybe today or tomorrow...we BD last night just in case

Hello Hello! Make sure to post another pic and it never hurts to BD as much as possible before actual ovulation.
I'm 4DPO today and no symptoms

Me too...it's the worst!!
Haha, you're just having so many dreams, it's crazy!

 

[KrissyB]

Misspriss - I am a terrible line spotter.... but FXed for you!

Caringo - I think FF says somewhere to always mark down the most fertile CM you see on any given day

DandJ -sometimes there's just flukey days, and taking it earlier usually yields a lower temp for me too. Could today be your O day which could also be a temp dip?

Macy - Lots and lots of people keep POAS until the OPK goes negative, but in general (at least with the wondfos) you O a day or two after your first positive.

 

[martamok]

Hi hunni12, I have those BFP dreams ALL the time, I get all excited and happy getting up till I take the real test and its negative haha those dreams are so deceiving. Hope this cycle our dreams become reality!
