I see it MrsP and Navy!!!

AFM 8/9DPO - I think I'm 8dpo but all my apps say I'm 9DPO. Anyway, took tests and I think they're a bit ambiguous at this point. Maybe the start to something but maybe just evaps. The wondfo did dry a bit darker which is the pic I uploaded, but it was there while the test was wet. Not getting excited yet though.

I think I can see a shadow of a line, fingers crossed for you!

USA I wouldn't trust blue dye tests. Your pink dyes yesterday were looking great. Also, never take the strip out of the casing; it renders the test invalid immediately. Something about the air hitting the strip too fast, I think. Causes there to be a line sometimes where there shouldn't be.

Hi ladies.. could do with some advice currently CD 9 and have white discharge is this a sign ovulation is near by?

@Joannaxoxo An usual smell after sex, especially if it’s a big fishy, could signal bv. It’s cause by an overgrowth of a bacteria due to you pH being higher. Go get a test from the doctor and they’ll prescribe antibiotics if you have it. I know it can affect your ttc and make it harder for the sperm to make it to the egg, so it’s worth getting checked. I’m actually going for the same check once af is over.

Thanks for the reply. I've made an appointment with my doctor. I wonder if it is BV if it's also messing with my ovulation too? I can ask my doctor when I see her tomorrow.

So I believe I’m 9dpo. I got my first peak test on the 30th. Could I have implantation cramping now? Yesterday I was extremely nauseous and today I feel some cramping. I’m probably over thinking things

I had my peak on the 29th so I assumed O on the 30th. I am 9dpo. Since implantation can be from 6-12dpo It could be! But I also have cramps and my 1st pregnancy I had cramping for weeks as my body adjusted. Fx

Wow look at all those tests! I see lines on all of them, I hope they all progress!

Thanks for the advice @co_fostermom and

Maybe it’s also the period hormones but I’m just feeling super down and weepy today about all of this.

Aww Teafor wish I could give you the biggest hug. Sorry the witch got you. I am right there with you hun - been having light pre-AF spotting for a few days now so she will likely be here tomorrow or so. So cycle 6 is right around the corner.

We will also get us get checked if cycle 6 fails, so that would be in January. I know for many its "too early", but I would rather not waste any more time should there in fact be any issues, or just to have that peace of mind if everything is alright with both of us.

We have a fertility specialist near us so we are thinking, as a first step, to go get a semen analyis + sperm DNA fragmentation test. We will start with my guy first as I do tend to believe everything is top notch with me (uterus looked great at my last ultrasound, cycles are super regular, my BBTs indicate that my hormone levels are probably all good), and then if all is good with him, we will check if there are any underlying issue with me.

Hello all! I’m jumping over from the November thread. I’m now CD56 and I think my body is having its third attempt at ovulation this cycle so marking my place in case my ovaries manage to do their job. Test date is still TBD!

Congrats to all the BFPs! I’ve had a catch up on the thread and there’s a lot of lines! Hoping everyone still waiting joins that crowd!

Pineberry I hope that spotting eases off and AF stays away for you!

Danizzychar fertile CM tends to be clear and stretchy like raw egg whites. Hopefully it’ll switch to that soon for you!

 

[Deethehippy]

Lots of BFP's in here for Christmas Hope I get some luck too and fingers crossed for everyone else waiting.

 

[USAFWife319]

I’m going to try and wait until Friday to test. I may not be around much the next few days as I’m going to try and keep my mind away from it. FXed all!

Just done a opk does this mean i am going to ovulate soon???

It could or it could mean nothing. I know mine go light right before but it’s still negative. With opk tests the test line has to be as dark or darker than the control

Test line should be the same color or darker. So for example this is what this month looked like for me. My peak was 11/30 so I assume O on 12/1. I'm honestly not even 100% sure with these tests accuratly predicting ovulation because I had EWCM on day 10 and 11.

I give baby dust to everyone who’s out now... I know how hard it can be and it gets annoying asf too. After awhile it just gets irritating. Anywho here’s an update? I think my morning urine is trash so I do ANU instead tbh. Thoughts?

 

[Skyye]

To me it’s clearer than last time so that’s pretty exciting. Trying not to get hopes up though just Incase -_-

 

[Skyye]

My symptoms are sore breasts but very mild to where it’s not even noticeable unless I pay attention, nausea but it isn’t late enough for pregnancy to me, and moodiness, like getting mad at dumb stuff. So who knows, I’m testing again a day or two before my period day

 

[Skyye]

But I’m not getting excited or getting my hopes up til it’s a clear positive
