CBFM Buddy

[DaisyQ]

I've read about that test. I think it's controversial - not every fertility specialist thinks it's valid.

 

[jchic]

I was reading someone's journal - maybe vestirse's, and she had that too, but only once I think. I think it might have happen the cycle she got preggo. I wouldn't worry about it

As for your CBFM status, I would just keep bding. It's possible the cbfm will miss your surge. That huge dip today in temps looks promising for impending o. You'll nknow when you o'ed from your temps, even if the monitor never gives you a peak. Hang in there! Just a few more days. I guess if you are really worried about it, the doc could give you a trigger shot to make it happen.

Daisy aka Pregopants -

So basically I should just chalk it up as nothing. I think because I am a super paranoid freak I am starting to think I have some weird disease. Also, you know when you think about stuff you make your body feel them? thats what I am doing, LOL.
I asked about a trigger shot and he will only do if its IUI since he says I O on my own...DAMMIT, LOL

It is me in my pic. It was taken in Mexico. I was skinny dipping!

Love yours of your doggie poo!

Pregopants!

How is everyone today??

My cm seems to have dried up. There's a bit of sticky, but it's very scant. ?? Trying not to read too much into that. I had lots of creamy cm over the weekend, less yesterday, and it was thinner, more milky, now barely any. Cervix has moved a little higher and might be a tad softer. Huh. Dying for a good sign today. Boobs are less sore.

 

[jchic]

HA! I love it! Its such a neat picture! You def are prego! What a Christmas treat!

Mamma - have you Ovulated?

[DaisyQ]

Hey girls -

Jchic and Creative I found that thread referencing the CM with white "flecks." See also page 47.

They don't know what it is either I don't think. But it's not just you!

 

[1cre8tivgrl]

Thanks Daisy, I searched for quite awhile on google this afternoon and no one seemed to know what it was...odd!!!

 

[1cre8tivgrl]

Girls, DH came home tonight and hollared up to me and asked if everything was ok. I said Yeah why. Apparently I left my keys in the door What the?!!! Our propane man came and everything, wow....can you say prego brain! DH set the cold keys down next to me and I had to move them, the smell of cold metal was really bothering me

 

[DaisyQ]

OMG! Creative!!! I mean... Pregopants!

[mammawannabe]

I have missed sooo much! Hello ladies and pregopants!! (aka Daisy and Creativ!)

Wow you guys. It sounds super duper promising for you two!

Jchic ~ Awesome news on your huge eggys!!!
I'm on cd12 today. Got highs yest and today.....we are having a hard time trying to decide whether to wait a few months to try again just in case...don't want to be 6 mon prego at my wedding...I think we are gonna wait this month b/c we are traveling on Ov day anyways and didn't want the added stress. I am gonna keep track with CBFM just so i have more data to work with when we do continue....By the way, have huge amounts of ewcm the last two days...figures the first month i actually have alot, we aren't goin for it. grr.
I am totally following you guys though, so don't worry!!

Mrs. B ~ woo hoo for clomid !! good luck and FX.

Hi girls hope you're all well. I think this month is out the window for me as I'm going to london day after tomorrow. we had planned to bd today and tomorrow (cd14 and 15) but my monitor has given me nothing but lows..

Either OV'in really late or not ov'ing I suppose. Normally i ov on cd 16, but last month it was cd18. Either way, I think by the time I see a high or peak it will be too late this month. Never mind. Will keep using the monitor and hope next month it's better.

 

[DaisyQ]

Hi all!

Mamma, I can totally understand why you might want to wait for the wedding. I had briefly considered going off the pill before the wedding just to get it out of my system, but I just didn't want to risk getting prego before the wedding as I didn't want to feel sick, not fit into my dress, and not be able to drink (and we went to Italy for our honeymoon - so definitely didn't want to miss out on the wine). I say play it by ear and do what you feel is right. Have you set a date? Looked for a dress? So excited for you! HUGS!

Popcorn, that sounds like a bummer that you haven't entered your fertile zone yet... but you know, some ladies go from low straight to peak, so you may just have a chance yet! So there's no chance to BD while you are in London?

Creative, just checked your journal and glad you are feeling better today and YOU ARE SO PREGOPANTS!

Jchic, what's cooking lady?? Any peaks yet?

DawnLouise, what's going on?

Mrs. B, how is the clomid going? Any side effects?

Everyone else? Happy? New - are you lurking?

AFM, not too much to report in terms of symptoms. Temp went back up today, but it might be artificially high because I woke up before my alarm and just laid there trying to fall back asleep for 30 minutes. Really hope it stays up there (or goes higher!). I'd like a triphasic chart like CREATIVE AKA PREGOPANTS!

 

[1cre8tivgrl]

Pregopants I was feeling pretty confident until I read through a girls journal on here last night...she had everything that I have, even a triphasic chart and was a shoe in for a bfp and the witch got her!! Goes to show you nothing is for sure...put me right back in my place So I guess we wont know for sure for another 3 days.

Mamma I was just thinking about you!! Glad your back I missed hearing from you! I don't blame you for wanting to hold out for the wedding...you wont be leaving us though will you??? sniff sniff

How is the clomid treating you Mrs. B?

Daisy I don't think your temp fluxuates too much if any if you are just laying there trying to fall back asleep, as long as you didn't get up out of bed (your body is still resting even if your not asleep) I would say your temps pretty accurate! I often have that happen to me...and I did not sleep well at all last night, I swear I saw every half hour on the clock and it took me over an hour and a half to fall asleep last night, which is odd for me, I usually am out withing seconds of hitting my pillow!

 

[jchic]

Daisy and Cre8tiv - Please go register already because you both are prego!
Mamma - SO good to hear from you! Hope you have fun traveling for Christmas! I am stuck at my inlaws on Christmas Day and I honestly could claw my eyes out for the few hours we are there, LOL. Christmas Eve we are with my family
Popcorn - I agree with Daisy! You arent out yet and London sounds Fab. I am jealous!
Dawn, Happy - whats popping over there?
Mrs B - Hows the clomid?

AFM - got a peak today on CD15 so I think I will O tomorrow. we have had sex everyday since CD8 and will continue through until I get a low so I hope to have covered my bases. I am PRAYING HARD for a New Year's BFP! I read that scientifically it makes the most sense to have sex everyday while TTC, the odds swing that way, so thats what we are doing this cycle.
Also, quick question - last night after BD, literally everything came out! Do you think any swimmers made it up the cervix? I assume even if alot falls out, that at least a few make it, right? It has to be impossible for everything to fall out, right?

 

[1cre8tivgrl]

for your 1st peak jchic!!!! Did you lay down before getting up after bding last night? The one thing I did different this month (thank you Daisy) was lay on my back for 10 minutes and then flip over and lay on my tummy for another 10 minutes. Seemed to help a lot with stuff falling out. And from what I've read the sperm are quick they get where they need to go so most everything that falls out of you afterward is dead sperm and seminal fluid (stuff you don't need anyway). I mean think about all the accidental pregnancies out there...you know they didn't lay down for 20-30 minutes after to keep them in! Those get where they need to be fast!
