Hopefuls!!!!!!!

[DSemcho]

I always OV on CD18 - but I have a 32 day cycle also.

Aww Pheobemum hope you're feeling a bit better now......it is true when you say we take the load on our shoulders sometimes it gets to a point when you have to trust in fate and hope for the best, I'm sure you've done enough this month *hugs* try to not get too stressed (haha easier said than done...lol) fingers Xd for you! x

DSemcho, that's quite a big temp change...... that's meant to be a good thing, right? Don't they say if your temp stays high untill AF due then it's s sign of implantation?? ooooh keep us posted on any symptoms you get! x

Wannabe ahhh isn't it crazy waiting for a positive OPK?! I have so little trust in them that I'm just not expecting them to work for me - but I'm dutifully peeing on them every day hoping for a smiley, haha I have a feeling you'll get a positive one in the next couple of days keep up with all the BDing.....we're all cheering you on, haha!

This thread has definitely stopped me from going on and on about OPKs, CM... etc to poor DH, who does his best to listen but is completely out of his depth....bwahaha I'm still waiting for my smiley, have a feeling I maybe ovulate later than I thought.....hmmm we'll soon see (hopefully) we're going to BD as much as we can over the next week - hubby has 3 gigs in a row coming up which means he'll be home in the early hours every night so I'll have to hide a can of Red Bull under my pillow and jump him when he gets home

***babydust*** to all xxxxx

It keeps me from talking to my husband to. One time I tried to tell him about CM and he went "That's fu***ng gross. I started laughing at him." My temp today was 97.0 instead of 96.9 so I'm hopeful. Also crampies every day after OV and I got a muscle like cramp that went from right below my belly button down to my pubic area.

Sounds good DS! Hopefully it's s sticky bean for you

So I had no opks to test this morning I buggered up my last one last night and it didn't get any lines arghhhh! Tried to buy more but shop was shut... So did one this afternoon and had a second line! It's the darkest ive had but still nowhere near as dark as the control. It was only 2 hours since my last wee so maybe it's not concentrated enough or I missed my surge... This afternoon I have gotten extremely bloated and and having AF type cramps... Do you think I'm ovulating today? It's all so frustrating!!!! Lol
So we will again tonight and I'm currently 'brewing' so I can take another opk tonight!!! Hopefully this is my egg finally making an appearance. I don't think I've ever had ov pain before, but then I've never been looking for it!

 

[WannaBeAMumma]

Suzzie, what cd are you on? Hopefully you can entice hubby after his gigs!!!

Nightmare WannaBeAMumma!! Thats great that you got your second line later thought. Im not sure if that means you are ovulating today or will do so in the next 24-28 hours but its definitely a great sign anyway. I would just keep and hope for the best!!

I have had no symptoms of ovulation at all except my ewcm on Tuesday and Wednesay. We only did the deed on Tuesday so who knows if that will work or not.

Thanks suzzie, hubby says its the pressure of doing it to a calender that he doesn't like and its putting him off. I kind of get where he's coming from but still annoyed that he coulnd't on Wednesday and we had a big row last night again so no .

That means we only did the deed the 3,4 and 5 days before O and the day of smiley.

God knows if that's enough, doubt it but not much I can do now.

to all you ladies.

Haha, DS!!!

Ooh, temp signs are good I think. Don't know much about it but your symptoms seem good too xx

 

[WannaBeAMumma]

Thanks Phoeb i haven't actually noticed any ewcm this month but we have had sooooo much and also we are using maybe baby lubricant with the applicators (like preseed) so there is just way too many fluids too tell lol also at least you on the smiley day!! That's gotta give you decent odds.

Did another opk. It was 4 hours since my last. It's a REAL line its about half as dark as the control but the best I've had. Its about 9pm here, I did one at 4:30 and the one before that wasn't since 6am yesterday. So either I missed my surge while I had no opks or it's building, I'm just going to keep testing and see if it gets darker or fades... I really think I'm ovulating today but only time will tell, we just again and will tomorrow am as well incase my cramps were ov.

Yay so excited



Feels like a sticky been month!! gl girls

 

[Lisarina]

Hi ladies! Soooo I did my 9 dpo testing this morning like I said I was gonna annnnnnd BFP!!!! Ahhhh I can't believe it- it's faint but 100% there... Gonna test again tonight to see if it's darker baby dust to all you girls- maybe this thread will be lucky!!!

 

[Lisarina]

Just took a pic for u girls...faint line... but definitely there! Still can't believe it!

 

[DSemcho]

Wow that is super faint! Holy cow I had to squint! Upload it to countdown to pregnancy and send me the link lol. I love the invert tool. But def-congratulations!!!!

I'm tempted to test but I know it's WAY to early. I had some CM today that was sticky and slightly yellow so idk if that's normal. My period is due in about 11 days so shouldn't I be dry right now? Also got slight heartburn from eating an apple. Urg.

Soo excited for you, keep up the good work hehe xx

Fingers crossed this is the perfect time and with all this you have just got to catch that egg this month xx

That's absolutely fantastic Lisarina!!!

Huge congratulations, so great to hear some good news at last.

Faint line but I definitely see it!!

Let's hope this is the start of the for all of us.

On for you!!

 

[phoebemum]

Here's a question ladies!

If I got my smiley on Tuesday, does that mean to count down dpo from Tuesday or is Wednesday a more realistic date to count down from?

Either Im now 2 or 3 dpo but I'd quite like to know how you ladies count it?

Also, this might be useful for you.

When I was ttc my daughter, it was our first month and I basically had no clue about ovulation etc. (Pretty sure I still don't tbh!!)

Anyway, the only symptom I had was the metal taste in my mouth and it was very strong. No heartburn, no extra weeing, no sore boobies, no morning sickness. Honestly, the only thing was a teeny bit of bloating but I could have that anyway at several times through the month and the metal taste.

I know we all like to symptom spot but don't read too much into it if you don't get any.

We're not out until that ugly AF shows up and you get a fully negative test so don't worry too much xx
