Aussies trying to get duffered aged 20+ !!!

Don't know if it's any comfort, but I tested with a FRER at 8DPO and it was stark white and then yesterday at 9DPO I had a line! To be honest I thought I would have seen something that looked like an evap maybe first.

Also, for those of you that are temping. I usually use FF, but this cycle I decided to use countdown to pregnancy as well. Anyway, countdown to pregnancy didn't even pick up that I O'd!
 
Hi all, I'm in the 2WW!! Background info: have 2 little girls, poppy is 3, Maggie is 16months, been ttc #3 since November 2011. Have had issues with luteal phase (averaging 8-9days!)
last cycle reached 10days just!
This cycle I haven't charted, and we've bd'd every other day for the whole cycle. I usually ovulate around cd24, but I had gastro and am quite sure it was delayed till cd26 (going off CM) so here I am 12dpo (assuming cd26 was infact o day!) feeling nauseas as anything, crampy like AF is going to arrive any second and experiencing ewcm and generally feeling insanely frustrated!! Had 2 BFN, trying to wait til 14dpo to test again as that's when I got my bfp's with the girls. :)
 
Ginny - did you get a darker line yet??

LLPM - welcome! Hopefully you will be on your way to baby #3 very soon!!
 
yes, my FRER this morning was a tiny bit darker than yesterdays :)

I might even break out a digi tomorrow haha
 
LLMP welcome! My luteal phase was only 9 days last month too - but it was the first month I charted so I have no idea if it was a one off or a normal thing for me - is a 9 day luteal phase a bad thing? I am really new to all this so have no idea what it all means really!

Ginny - so great that the line is darker - thanks for the info about countdown to pregnancy too - I wonder why it didn't show that you ov'd - you obviously did to get tha bfp!
 
Pauls_angel, thanks! 9days isn't so bad but ideally it would more than 10 otherwise it can be classed as a luteal phase defect. There's lots of helpful threads on here though about how to lengthen it so have a look around and grab some info, dont get hung up on it though, it's not a problem for everyone! :) chart for a few cycles and see how you go.
 
Omg - did two IC tests this Arvo and both have a really really faint line. I did the same test with FMU and I Swear it was BFN.

Ideas?

What's an IC test? You're HCG doubles every 48hours which is why it could be BFN at one end of the day then positive that afternoon or evening, especially if you haven't drank a lot and your urine is fairly concentrate! :) fx'd it's a true BFP for you!!
 
Angel, is it possible you o'd earlier than you thought? Do you use opks?

I don't use opk's but I did temp and FF said I ov'd at day 17 in a 27 day cycle - was a .6 degree jump that day with temps above my coverline consistently until AF arrived. Just realised that means I have a 10 day LP not 9 - must have misread it last time. Am temping again this month and so far a similar pattern to last month - will just have to see if the pattern continues.
 
Yeah ok, so def got o date right then!

Ive been taking pre natals since starting ttc, plus vit b complex as I was a bit concerned my original 11 day lp might be a bit short, it now seems to be increasing by one day a month as last cycle was 12 and this one 13! I'm happy about that even tho let's me get my hopes up a little about being late...

Are you taking and vits?

I've been taking blackmores pregnancy and breastfeeding mutlivite - that is all - have been on it since March this year.
 
Another thing, when you started bleeding was it really light? As in you didn't need a tampon? I mark days like that as spotting, and then first day of real full flo as the start of new cycle...
 
The first day was - but I did mark it as spotting - after that I needed a tampon so marked it as light bleeding. I think maybe that is why I first thought it was a 9 day LP as I counted in my mond the spotting day as part of my period.
 
I'm not sure what's in that one, I've been on blackmores conceive well...I'm
Not sure if they are the same or not!! Quite possibly ;-)
 
Will be interesting to see how this cycle goes! FX you never find out about your lp, and get a bfp instead!! :hugs:
 
I think the difference is that blackmores conceive has slightly more folate - it costs a fair bit more though and my dr said the pregnancy and breastfeeding one is suffient for me as I have good folate levels anyway. :)
 
Useful info!!

I'm booking in for a Pap on Friday, might be a good time to discuss this ttc business with someone too :)
