I'm out, might see others in the Jan thread.

Congrats to all the bfp this month!
 
I'm have been spotting for a few days so this morning I tested and it was negative. I'm 3 days late so I'm just waiting for the witch.
 
I'm a bit confused about this cycle :(

Was hoping for a BFP at the start of Dec, but AF arrived two days early. Then, FF predicted I'd ovulate CD14-16 so I decided I'd try for a BFP on New Year's Eve instead and hoped to be around 12-14dpo by then. I have PCOS and from experience I know I don't always ovulate and when I do get positive OPKs or a Peak on CBFM it's sometimes around CD14-16 (like FF predicted) but its often later - CD17-23.

This cycle, I decided to try temping again - I did this a couple of years ago for about 13 months but my temps were so erratic FF never detected ovulation (even when Gynae had said i'd ovulated). At the time I was trying to take oral temps (but I'm a mouth breather), the house we were renting had poor heating and the bedroom always seemed cold and I was working shifts so woke up at different times every day.

Now I get up at the same time (within an hour) every day and the house is at a constant temperature and I'm temping vaginally. It's definitely made a difference and my temps seem normal - I got a definite temp rise (clearly above where I think the cover line should be) yesterday and today it's the same, so if I get a third high temp tomorrow I should get crosshairs. BUT my CBFM still says High (no peak) because the estrogen line is v. dark and the LH line is faint, and I've not got a positive OPK yet either.

I have had a few twinges but nothing that's definitely been ovulation pain (but sometimes I get ov pain, sometimes I don't) and my CM has been watery for about 6-7 days (Which FF marks as a fertile sign). I had a very small amount of EWCM yesterday morning, but I don't usually get EWCM anyway so the absence wouldn't mean a lack of ovulation either.

I'm CD17 today. Does a temperature rise (in the absence of illness etc) always indicate ovulation? Or should I trust the OPKs/CBFM and assume i've not ovulated yet?
 
Yes, we're good. I was coming home from my appointment with the fertility specialist (who did my reversal surgery) and as I came off the highway, there is a bridge. The roads were wet and it was snowing, and the guy in front of me, going down the other side of the bridge, slammed his brakes, forcing me to slam on mine. My car went sliding though and I rearended him. There was no damage to either of the vehicles, and no one got hurt, but I flew forward pretty hard and started cramping and spotting shortly after the accident, so I went to emerge to get checked out. They did a bedside ultrasound and Freckle is still snug in there with a heartbeat. I have another ultrasound tomorrow, which was already set up two weeks ago, but I couldn't wait two days after an accident to make sure everything was okay.

:hugs: That must have been so scary for you.

I'm glad that nobody got hurt and that Freckle is still snug with a HB. Best of luck for the ultrasound tomorrow as well - I don't blame you for not waiting for the ultrasound you already had booked, the not knowing would have driven me crazy :hugs:
 
Thank goodness that baby is okay! Must have been very scary. I will be using OPK's from Sat/Sunday as come tomorrow my OH has no work due to Christmas Holidays! 17 whole days together x
 
So sorry to hear that Brandi! I had a big fall (well, I think it was, one of my 100-pound dogs was running full tilt and hit me in the back of the knees, threw me up in the air and I fell on my butt/back) when I was around 12 weeks with my son, the midwife said that in the early stages, they are so tiny and there's so much fluid around them trauma is not as significant as it would be later in pregnancy. Glad your little one is ok!!

That's scary!!! So glad you and Freckle are okay! :hugs::hugs:
 
My temps are all over the place and ff keeps changing my o date. I'm so frustrated.
 
6dpo now ughhhh waiting is not my strong suit.... I'm feeling especially hopeful this month which is going to kill me should plans fail :( at 6dpo things out of the ordinary are awful terrible gas pains yesterday felt like knives, today cramping down low, still creamy cm, burping a lot sore throat just started and during a usual work out I felt like I was gonna puke a number of times. Probably nothing though !! Just more ttc insanity !!
 
Hi Ladies! I've been silently stalking since a few days after my BFN on December 3rd.

Congrats to everyone who got their BFPs! I feel like this is a lucky thread and I may be able to catch some of that luck tonight! I started using OPKs after AF because I wanted to see what my body was doing. I finally got + OPKs today. My tracker has today as O date so it was pretty close since I got the + OPKs this morning and this evening. Going to BD as soon as OH gets home from work tonight... and probably more this weekend :haha:

Good luck to everyone still waiting and I'm sorry to those that AF came to visit.

I thought I was totally out, I took a EPT at 11 DPO and it was negative, I was gutted because my chart looked great/perfect, looked as if there was even an implantation dip on 7DPO and back up the next day, I've had 'symptoms' that I've never experienced before such as intense shooting pains in my boobs and a huge amounts of creamy, lumpy CM (TMI). This was from about 8DPO and started disappearing at 10DPO. took the test at 11 DPO with a horrible BFN. all the symptoms seem to have disappeared now and I had horrible cramps on 12DPO so thought AF was def on her way. Now I normally start spotting 2-3 days before AF starts (I'm like clockwork every 29 days), however i'm not spotting and i'm currently 14DPO (the day before AF arrives) with no spotting and my temperature hasn't dropped, in fact is went up 0.10 this morning…. am I getting my hopes up for nothing? Im too scared to test and see another stark white empty window.

I got the same at 11 DPO but it can be too early to test. Its not over till AF arrives. AF is due tomorrow and no sign yet, so keeping my FX! Good luck, you could still get a BFP
