Bright new month, bright new cycle! Everyone's welcome!

[prepping]

waiting, I don't know how "covert" Operation Sperm Catcher is when my romantic words to DH last night was "So, are we going to keep the streak going?" LoL. You had a nautious wave? Cool! hahaha I knew I wouldn't have to hold your positive hat for you too long.

readyornot, yep that's a plus to anticipate more shots at TTCing!

jchic, I hope you feel sick too! (how often can you say that and mean it in a good way?)

I guess I kind of am in the 2WW now! I'm pretty sure I would have ovulated by now, but we'll keep it going for another few days just in case. The weird thing about this month is that I haven't had nearly as much CM as I usually do. I don't know whether that's a good thing, a bad thing, or something that doesn't mean anything. Last month, CD14 had a huge load of it (TMI! ). This month, I had some but nothing substantial at all.

Went out to dinner last night with my cousin who again reminded me that we need to get pregsky within the next few months so that my LO is within a year of her brother's LO due in December. Gotta love her. Working on it!

Feeling good about this month! In past months, we have missed a day or two in the supposed prime time... this month we've got covered. There's nothing more I feel we could have done! Happy that a wedding will have me distracted over the weekend so I won't start looking for things to notice until next week when it may actually mean something.

Great big to all my wonderful ladies here

nips are sensitive. Hmm. that's new. WAY too early for signs... but still interesting.

Summer - how is your TWW going?

pretty boring so far. Lol. I think I'm probably around 5 dpo so I guess that's to be expected.

Just a waiting game now

hey all

im very annoyed....my OH has had to go away for work on friday, some urgent client matter that he has to deal with along with some of his other employees, so he wont be back until tuesday morning..... Im pretty sure im ovulating right now! i have EWCM and sort of a cramp sensation in my lower back with feels a bit like AF pain. GRRRRRRR thats it for me, the last time we managed to BD was on wednesday night and i dont think his little guys would be able to last for that long....possibly but I think im out!

this normally doesnt happen so i suppose i cant complain too much, I should look on the bright side, i have had a lot more CM this month, even though it still confuses me... i had a ton of it last monday, but it wasnt clear, more coloured and very thick. now it is transparent and very stretchy, not too thick, just right, but typical....no man around!


how is everyone else? Prepping, i guess your in the 2WW now?

waiting - How is your temp?

jchic - your dog is beautiful! how are you?

summer, doopers - how are you both?

Hi There! AWWW thanks! Shes a year old and totally rules the roast and is completely spoiled. I consider her my first baby lol.
Were you able to DTD before he left? Sperm lives a while

 

[prepping]

Summer, aw that sucks! That happened a couple tmes with us too but I was the one out of town. Can always hope for a surprise, but either way try not to get down about it. Some things can't be controlled. Big

I would say I for sure am in the 2WW now at CD18. I don't know how I feel about the chances of success at this point. i'm staying positive as I would be a hypocrite otherwise... but I feel utterly normal at this point. I dunno. Hope to be smuggling a zygote.

How's everyones weekend?

 

[waiting2c]

Morning all! Hope you have all had a good weekend!

So sorry to hear that your OH is going away at O time Winter!! That is stink as..

Prepping - still way too early to count yourself out for feeling normal!

AFM - dont get too excited yet, lord knows im trying not to.... I got something on an IC this morning, but it might just be an evap, will do again tomorrow with FMU, but till then have to try and remain calm cos if its blank tomorrow and ive gotten all worked up today then I will be sooooo gutted....

 

[prepping]

waiting!!! Omg! What dpo are you now??? Okay I'm not getting excited.... Nope... Not me... Eeee! Man, if it wasn't for the time difference then I'd only have to wait a few hours before hearing any news!

Nothing exciting happening here (in comparison ). Lots of sexy time, now just chillin.

 

[waiting2c]

I just did a test from supermarket... it said accurate from day you miss your AF, it was completely negative.. now I dont know if I had an evap this morning or if its not high enough to show on other ones... UGH, i feel awful!

 

[prepping]

Again, what dpo are you? Because it's completely reasonable that the supermarket test doesn't show anything if you're still a few days from AF. Different sensitivities. Did you take a pic of the test from the morning?

 

[waiting2c]

Yeah I did, im about 9dpo.... ill attach pics

IC from this morning

First Response Plus from lunch time.

 

[prepping]

9dpo is definitely early. I have a bit of line eye going on it seems when I look at the pics. I asked DH if he could see anything but he can't. You still have more ic's right? I would either take one tomorrow morning or try my darndest to hold off for at least another couple days. Those FRs are only about 45-60% or so at 9dpo I think?

 

[waiting2c]

Yup I have a billion more ICs, I will take anohter one tomorrow morning when I get up... and try to chill out till then lol.... so much easier said than done!!

 

[prepping]

Ummmmm, I know this is contrary to trying to maintain calmness while you're waiting it out until tomorrow...... But I showed DH the FR pic again saying that I swear I think I see a shadow of a pink line.... He took a good look for a few seconds and says "oh ya, I see something there"

Where's the excited anxious smiley???

 

[waiting2c]

Omg seriously? I don't think I can see anything Irl but who knows .... I'll try to stay calm till tomorrow

 

[prepping]

Okay try to stay calm (guess I'm no help with that!) I'm an itsy bit excited....

 

[jchic]

Omg seriously? I don't think I can see anything Irl but who knows .... I'll try to stay calm till tomorrow

waiting: 9dpo may be too early, implantation might not have even happened yet....I know it SUCKS to wait it out, but by 14-16DPO you may have a BFP!

^very solid advice.

Ever-so-patiently waiting for an update.

 

[waiting2c]

sorry gals - BFN this morning.... on my ICs... yesterdays must have been an evap temp took a bit of a climb this morning though so will wait and see... still have a sore back, sore boobs and pretty much constant cramping... I definitely feel different this time round but it could still all mean nothing.
