[Motherofcorgi]

Hey everybody! Congrats to the BFPs!
Just popping in to say that I got my day 3 blood results in and everything is totally normal and smack dab in the middle of the average range! They said I have excellent ovarian reserve too All that's left is my progesterone test on day 21st then I should have a pretty accurate picture of my cycle.
Hubby is getting tested this month as well. Hopefully all is well there too!

Congratulations mickels!!!!

To everyone: I need advice! How do you know when you’ve ovulated? I have had egg white/watery discharge the last couple of days and light twinges/crampy feelings, tonight the crampy feelings have been strongest and go through to my back. My app says I am due to ovulate in 3 days but would tonight’s strong cramps be a sign of ovulation??

I would say that's ovulation! How long have you used your app and what cycle day are you on? I ovulate on cycle day 8-10. Pretty early..

Lizbo, cramping isn't really helpful in knowing your O. It could happen before, on or after like Katy said. And some women don't actually feel it. Best time to BD is when you see a watery/eggwhite CM and you can stop BD when it becomes creamy white or something. And the only thing that can help you confirm O is when you are temping you can use the free version of fertility friend to log your temps but you need a basal body thermometer for that if you don't have yet and if you're not being monitored by a specialist.

Thanks heaps. I will get myself set up with fertility friend and a body basal thermometer so I can pin point it properly.

Oh really?? I always felt like I was an early-ish ovulator as well! But didn’t think it was possible. I’ve been using app 12 months. Some cycles are 25/26 days and some are 31/32 days

The egg white cervical mucus is definitely the fertile mucus that helps the sperm swim much faster it's a better environment for them. I tend to feel a little bit of cramps whenever I'm ovulating whether it's before or after actual ovulation but you can imagine and it's somewhere between 12 to 24 hours around that time. But there are also times where I've had conceived but didn't feel anything for ovulation and really thought that we didn't get it that month. I stopped taking my temperature once I found out that I ovulated early.

A little tmi but last night at about 3am I woke up with the worst tummy pains and had like constipation and diarrhea mixed together. So sore and then went back to sleep and woke up this morning completely fine. Also have pain under my left armpit? Really strange and never experienced that before!

Hi, all. This is our 6th cycle TTC. I took couple months break from BnB, but sometimes it feels good to be able to talk about TTC and the 2WW with others also doing it! I plan to test on the 20th. I will only be around 9-10 dpo.
I am not feeling very hopeful this cycle. My first 3 kids were conceived very quick. And this time around it's just not working so I am wondering if something is wrong with me in there I have been having pretty bad anxiety because of this which probably isn't helping! Another thing I went last week to get an ultrasound just to see if it all looked normal. It did look normal except my uterine lining was 13.9mm! Does that not seem too thick? They didnt say it was, but I read 8-11mm is normal. I was on day 14 of my cycle at the time. Also, I didnt have any follicles that were mature yet. The tech said the biggest follicle was only about half the size it needs to be to be mature. I thought no big deal since I dont usually ovulate until later in my cycle (day 17-23) so that would give it enough time to mature, but that night I had a positive opk and the next day I felt ovulation pains. So now Im worried my eggs arent maturing fully before I ovulate. I go get my day 21 blood work on Thurs so hope that sheds some light!

I thought that this was a cycle without ovulation since I had some ovulation signs but no temp rise to confirm it. Now, at cd22 the temp rise suddenly came! Haven't felt any ovulation pain at all and my cervix was very firm and closed yesterday but still I probably did ovulate yesterday, or the day before (that's when my temp dipped). Well at least we got these days covered and I regained some hope! Really thought I was out this month, but now I stand a chance! Af is due January 31st. Third cycle trying for baby four. Please let it be it!

Great news, Corgi. Hope all goes well with DH's results.

 

[RedRose19]

3 dpo today and constant cramping and exhausted too early for signs but wow I'm tired lol

 

[2nd time]

I'm still waiting all my lloyds tests have lines but nothing else does I had a dark positive on Mon but frer was Ned and lines are only light now af could be due as late as next Thursday

 

[Boognishrises]

I'm trying hard not to be crazy about testing. I feel like it stresses me out more waiting for my line to get darker.. I've had three early mc since June. I've had some testing done for simple things. Not I guess if it continues we will test for more.

It's a BFP!! hard to be excited though.. just trying to stay positive and keep my mind busy!
Please keep us in your thoughts. This is the first time that I've seen a positive so early! Hopefully that means the bean is sticking!

I've added some pics hopefully they post!

 

[TTC74]

Congrats Boog!

I'm a BFN at 9 DPO. I went to count myself out and then remembered that my almost one year old rainbow baby was a vvvvf line at 10 DPO. My hcg was 3. I don't even know how the test picked it up. At 12 DPO my hcg was only 56. So, there is still hope for me!

 

[Dream143r]

Boognishrises - I see that!!! Congrats!! FX that bean sticks hard. Let me know if/when you're ready to be marked
