CD1 August 26, any fellow cycle buddies?

[abennion]

Month #4 on the TTC Train. Taking Pre-natal vitamins, charting, and starting to use OPKs this month. Did bloodwork this morning because my thyroid levels were high back in July, my doctor wants to confirm if I have hypothyroidism. How about everyone else?

 

[Liz77]

Hi, I'm 2 days ahead of you CD 5 today and second month trying. Also going to try using OPK this month.

 

[abennion]

Do you chart at all? We got the clearblue advanced OPKs. It says they detect 4 days instead of 2, and from what I've read online you can use the fertility monitor refills with this type of opk so it makes it cheaper.

 

[Chole1026]

I'm a couple days behind you and I'm on CD9. This is my first cycle of TTC. So I'm definitely new at this!

 

[abennion]

You must be two days ahead of me. I'm only on CD7. Two days until I start using the OPKs!

 

[Chole1026]

Ahead. That's what I meant. Whoops! This is my first cycle trying and I haven't really thought about trying OPKs yet. I'm actually very new at all of this!

 

[abennion]

Well good luck! Hopefully you only need one month

 

[pam1532]

Pretty close! I'm on CD 6, 2nd cycle TTC #1.

 

[Chole1026]

Good luck, Pam! Hopefully we will all get our BFP's this month!

FX for you! Are you using OPKs?

 

[abennion]

Good luck Pam! I'm hoping we all get BFPs this month! Hubby was supposed to go help his brother close the cabin this weekend, but when I told him there was a chance of me ovulating he quickly changed his mind. He doesn't want to even risk missing our window this month!

 

[abennion]

Well, CD14 and got my solid smiley face on CB OPK! Going to try going the extra mile tonight with Hubby, as he's had a bit of problems performing the past couple of nights. Should be confirming O in the next couple of days

 

[abennion]

Well, after a succeful week of BD'ing, I've got my temp spike! Just waiting a couple of days for FF to confirm O, but I'm fairly sure I am 1DPO now!

 

[Chole1026]

FX abennion! Let the waiting game begin!

 

[abennion]

How is everyone doing? Currently 7DPO with higher than normal temperatures. We'll be testing next Wednesday!

 

[Chole1026]

I believe I got a BFP yesterday. It was very faint so I'm waiting to retest tomorrow or Saturday. ☺️

 

[abennion]

Congrats! Here's hoping that line gets darker! Have you taken any photos of the test?

 

[Chole1026]

It's very very faint, going to retest tomorrow morning in hopes the line has gotten darker. This was taken mid afternoon- I had been catering and didn't have much to drink during that time. Fx!

 

[abennion]

Its faint but its there! Congratulations!
