[CLOSED GROUP] TTC to 1st diaper - Welcome Freya! Congrats to fezzle!

[txbiscuit]

I've decided to start sending baby glitter instead of baby dust. I feel like it will be stickier. Thoughts?

 

[Snackimals]

i do love glitter...

 

[ClandestineTX]

Ditto! Bring on the glitter!

The data I've read is that the length of the LP is much more reliable as an indicator of your progesterone level than your temp rise... but from the looks of your chart, it seems you are the first to start our Superfecta of July BFPs. I'd wager I'll be #2, and then Mrs. JJ at #3, and then Snackimals at #4 (this isn't my preference, this is based off my crazy chart stalking)... Sorry, I miscounted the first time when I said "Trifecta" as there are clearly 4 of us about to get on with our Awesome Superfecta Cycle of BFPs.

You're right! I knew that, but wasn't thinking about it when I wrote. Now that you've pointed it out though...it's kind of depressing that we have to wait till July June is just starting! It's gonna be a loooong month lol

 

[Ameli]

Baby Glitter!

 

[Mrs. JJ]

June is totally the month! I feel good about June. SUPERFECTA POWER!!

 

[lamago]

Well how did you all go and sync your cycles on the web? . I'm on cycle day 10. And using opk this month because I don't have the sticks for fertility monitor. Im between a 27 and 30 day cycle and took round 2 clomid. Went to get fertility message and was very painful. They gave me a tea to take so well see.

Either way I'm trying to take twags advice and also reading impatient girls guide to pregnancy. It's helping calm me down.

Hopefully I don't miss ov because I've not used opk's before.

 

[ClandestineTX]

@lamago, I don't know how we did it... but all 4 of us will be starting a cycle within a week's time (actually think it's less than that).

I'd recommend doing the deed at least every other day - throw in an extra or two if you get a positive OPK. My positives have always been dark relative to other ones I've taken, but never true positives (I can only tell which were positives for me, after the fact when they start getting lighter). And TxBiscuit and Twag also never got super positives, and they're both expecting despite this!

 

[Ameli]

Yes, I agree. Don't let the OPKs stress you out. I also didn't get clear positives with the kind that show lines. I finally got the Clear Blue digital kind (Smiley Face) and got smiley faces and that was so much less frustrating than analyzing line darkness.

 

[Snackimals]

hey Lamago!
i had the message done also, in February. i didnt find it so painful on my womb, but on my right side ovary... OMG. i guess it was REALLY out of order or something. good luck!

Yeah Clandie, I think we are all within the same 5 days if the Bruja gets me by Sunday or Monday... We are cycle quadruplets! and that may be good luck, since Twag, Moo, and Sal were also days apart! WOOOT WOOOT!

Hows everyone today!?

 

[LillyTame]

Clandestine, I see your temp went up a bit! When are you due for AF? I tried to stalk your chart for the answer, but it looks like it varies some times.

 

[ClandestineTX]

Spotting here, expecting CD 1 with every trip to the loo. Have mapped upcoming cycle... and am seriously considering trying the smiley faced OPKs (someone please tell me if those are the Clear Blue ones) in addition to my usual internet el cheapos.

 

[ClandestineTX]

@Lilly - it does. Had pink spotting, then red spotting, then full stop. Think it's the calm before the storm.

 

[Snackimals]

Yah... they are Clear Blue

 

[LillyTame]

Mine were by Clearblue

 

[ClandestineTX]

Thanks - trying new el cheapos "babi" ones... the ClearBlue ones are 30.00 US for 7 of them even on Amazon??? I might be too cheap for those!

 

[txbiscuit]

Do you have HEB where you are? I saw the ClearBlue ones for like $20 or so at HEB.

 

[ClandestineTX]

I might... and is funny because I live in HEB, but do not know if we have those stores here..

 

[lamago]

Yes, I think I'll start bd today just to make sure. Those lines are hard to interpret. I've used the monitor since month 3 so I've been spoiled.

Snack, YES. My right side hurt really bad. It's still sore.

Clandestine , I'm sorry AF got you those last five days are the hardest!

 

[ClandestineTX]

Thanks, lamago! I'm really not even bothered anymore by it. Just moving on. And actually as of this cycle... I would likely still be able to attend my conference early next year and any future estimated due dates would be after my mom officially retires. Maybe better this way in the long run!
