Well nothing exciting to report here this morning. So I guess I'm keeping my fertility appointment. I'm so nervous I don't know why!

Ahh @josephine3 I was really hoping you’d have darker tests this morning! When is your appointment? It’s understandable to be nervous, it’s all the hope that comes with it!
My chart is looking ovulatory but it’s only because I’m ill and probably had a fever over night. Is it weird that I still enjoy seeing a temp spike even though deep down I know it’s not ovulation?

I hate that you’re having an anovulatory cycle. It’s so hard when there’s nothing you can do. I’m sorry your poorly too. I hope af shows so you can move forward. Wish mine would just show her face already too. I’m still confused by my chart. Just don’t know what to think. I thought I was feeling mild period pains yesterday so I expected my temp to have dropped again and thought it would have shown, but still nothing yet and my temp was back up.

@Bloblo
So happy you got the results that you wanted. I’ve never seen that test b4 it’s cute. Lol
@Laurabub84
That dip may of been implantation love. I had a 2 or 3 day dip with my 3 year old son. Oh I hope it is. Fx so much.
@josephine3
Oh man so sorry love. That last clear blue looked so convincing. good luck at your appointment.
@Pinkfizz2015

@Bloblo I'm glad you were happy with the results and didn't feel disappointed. I'm sure after infertility it must feel weird to get relieved at a bfn lol
@jellybeanxx I'm sorry you are feeling sick as well. That's terrible! I hope you feel better soon and that AF comes so you can start a fresh cycle.
@josephine3 I hope your appointment went well and I'm sorry about the BFN this morning. You are having the worst luck with evaps and weird lines. I'm so sorry.
@Suggerhoney Hoping and praying so much for you this cycle!
14dpo today. AF was due yesterday and didn't show, but I had a teeny tiny bit of spotting on and off through the day. If I wasn't looking for it I would have missed it. But my temp dropped this morning, so it's only a matter of time now. This was my 4th cycle since the chemical. I'm starting to think it was just a fluke and not a sign that anything changed. I'm going to give it a few more cycles of hardcore trying before going back to what I was doing before. Which was more than NTNP, but not quite as much as I'm doing now.

@Laurabub84 how long is your LP normally? Sorry you’re in a limbo as well!
@Suggerhoney hope time starts to move a bit quicker for you!

Thank you ladies I'm doing ok but on bed rest for the next 10 weeks (hoping to deliver her a week or 2 before due date) it's so nice to see your all still going with the test threads I like to pop in from time to time and see all tests xx

I last tested at 12 dpo. I didn't bother testing at 13 dpo because I saw a tinge of spotting on the toilet paper in the morning and thought for sure AF would show up, even though I should have known better since my temperature was high. I figured it would start sometime last night, but it didn't. I'm guessing I must have ovulated the day after I thought I did or my luteal phase was just a day longer than usual. I know slight variations can occur.
I don't exactly chart.... See, I charted regularly for years and years, and I know what my pre and post ovulation temps are. They are freakishly consistent for me. Pre ovulation is usually 96.8 and post ovulation is anything at 97.18 and above. Usually, it lands right around 97.33. Occasionally, I'll get a weird 97.02 temp or something like that that's a bit more ambiguous, but that is really rare for me, and usually it happens if I took my temp very early or very late. Yesterday my temp was 97.49 which was a really high temp for me. And today it was 96.73. So a really big drop.
PSA: I do not advise doing it my way. I only do it because I charted for soooo long and my body is so freakishly consistent when it comes to temperatures lol

10 dpo BFN. Nothing to see.
I will test tomorrow and then stop.
I am thinking of working extra to buy a Mira device. Does anyone have experience with it?

So about 15 mins before my appointment I had brown tinged cm on wiping. This is a sure sign af will be here any moment for me. How cruel is my body to do that minutes before my appt?! Its like it was waiting!!
So she asked all the usual questions, weight, medical history etc and booked me in for a transvaginal scan to see ovaries better but said everything else they already saw on the abdominal looked fine. I already had my day 21 progesterone bloods done and even though I'm sure it was a few days early she said as my levels were so good there was no need to repeat them. I was worried they might still have been high from ovulation as I didn't ov on that cycle till day 18 but she seemed to think that didn't matter. She's booking oh a semen analysis (much to his dismay - like that's the hardest thing they have to go through in all this lol) and offered me an hsg. I'm not sure wether to do it or not.. As much as I dislike the idea of a foreign object in my uterus it seems some women do get results after.. Anyone ever had one? What's it like?
@S_Dowd and @Laurabub84 I'm still hoping for you both this cycle good luck for your next tests!
Im considering myself out unless a miracle happens and af doesn't show by tomoro x

Awww so sorry about the bfn. They are so demoralizing. I haven't used Mira, but I have heard good things about it!
@Pinkfizz2015 Sorry you're on bedrest, but glad to hear everything else is going well. Let me know if you need some book recommendations to help you pass the next few weeks and what genres you enjoy
@josephine3 Oh seeing spotting is the worst. It's like you know AF is coming, but hasn't gotten there yet. So it's just waiting for the inevitable. I'm in the same boat. But having it happen right before your appointment is awful. I'm glad your appointment went well. I've never had an HSG. We have male factor infertility. I have heard lots of stories about women getting pregnant after having one. I'm not sure if these are just anecdotal or if there really is a measurable increase in chances after one. I want to send you tons of love and support for whatever you choose
@Laurabub84 I honestly don't know what to make of your chart. I see why you are confused. If AF hasn't come and your temp isn't down, could the new crosshairs really be correct? How long is your luteal phase normally? Were you tracking any physical symptoms CM/cervical position to see if there was any of that around either of your potential O dates? I'm sorry you are having such a confusing and frustrating cycle!

Good afternoon ladies. Hope you're all having a great day.
I'm 4/5dpo and still feeling under the weather a bit. Got the ultra sensitive cassette wondfos a few minutes ago
Which I'll start taking Saturday morning.
My boobs started hurting today and I'm feeling over tired.
Could be because I'm sick. Had bathroom issues most of the night. My dinner didn't agree with me hours later. So that was fun...not.
I'm looking forward to testing this month as we had great timing. Plus I have tons of hpts to use up. So I'll be testing like crazy
I know there are more of us getting ready to test soon
GOOD LUCK!
