June, month of new beginnings! Thread for laughter, support and POAS! 19 BFP!

[MellyH]

RRL, you're only a couple of days behind me! Any symptoms yet?

 

[MellyH]

Hunni, I would wait and do another one tonight/tomorrow morning and see if it keeps getting fainter. If so, I would count yesterday as ovulation!

 

[smiley4442]

So, I've finally convinced myself its ok to "O" later than I thought. And this time I for sure had ewcm 2 days ago and for sure a positive OPK. Last time I never had ewcm and my OPK was close but never positive and I convinced myself I missed the spike in it. I also have been charting my temp for the last week or so and I had a small (.2) dip in my temp and I've read that it can take a small dip before you ovulate, which should be tomorrow. The bad thing is starting my TWW over. I only had 2 days left based on my other opk. lol But I'm trying to be positive since I have a few signs this time instead of just being confused like last time.

 

[KrissyB]

Smiley - Still trying to make myself optimistic about the late O too. Well, at least we can be TWW buddies now - to the day! I guess it's back to ing for us lol. We did last night because I was a little nervous about the dark OPKs. But I suppose a few more rounds is necessary now.

 

[hunni12]

I guess me smiley and krissy will be testing around the same time lol

 

[darkriver]

Ladies I am out. I am taking six months out as I cant keep going through this pain. Maybe I will get a surprise at christmas. I hope you all get your blessings.

 

[MellyH]

So sorry darkriver. Rest, rediscover yourself, enjoy the second half of the year, and hopefully see you when you're ready again!!

 

[hunni12]

Sorry the witch got you fully DR ttc can be quite stressful and a break might be what you need

 

[smiley4442]

Thanks ladies! I hate to admit it but I'm tired of bding lol. We have been going to town since the end of May "just in case" and was ready to take a break. We've bd'd more (well not exactly more but probably close lol) in the last 3 weeks then last year (remember I was preggo for 9 months of it and then had the 6 week no sex rule lol) Here's what we've done:

cd5-bd
cd6-
cd7-bd
cd8-bd
cd-9-bd
cd10-
cd11-bd twice
cd12-bd
cd13-bd
cd14-bd
cd15-
cd16-bd
cd17-
cd18-bd
cd19-
cd20-bd

 

[KrissyB]

Yay Hunni! That's right you're right there with us too. And you're a good calm person to stop me from POAS every other day past O lol.

[hunni12]

@Smiley: Don't feel bad we been bding since last Friday 2-3 times a day lol I am tired as well just have to make it through tonight

@Krissy: You gotta have will power haha

Holy Christmas nuts! I gotta go get some pineapple and cut the core..i forgot about this

Using Pineapple to Assist Implantation: Pineapple contains bromelain. Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks up proteins that inhibit embryo implantation. Consuming a whole pineapple (focusing on the core as it has the highest concentration of Bromelain) during a fertility cycle can be beneficial.

For IVF [in vitro fertilization] cycle: one pineapple, divided into 5 portions - consume one portion each day, over five days, beginning on the day of your embryo transfer.

IUI [intra-uterine insemination] cycle: one pineapple, divided into 5 portions - consume one portion each day, over five days, beginning on the day of your IUI.

Timed intercourse cycle: one pineapple, divided into 5 portions - consume one portion each day, over five days, beginning on the day after ovulation.

Note: Be careful not to start consuming pineapple too early in the cycle. Beginning to consume pineapple BEFORE the recommended days above can actually affect your vaginal and cervical mucus PH, making it more acidic.

Sorry River *hugs* Here's hoping you get a great christmas present this year


Smiley - Wow.... I'm exhausted and we've literally DTD half as much as you guys. But I guess about 48 hrs more or so and we all can take a break. Especially if you're temping - you can keep an eye out for the rise and know you're past O.

Hunni - 2-3 x a day??! LOL Ok, maybe I'm just out of shape....

[hunni12]

Krissy lol believe me when I say I am exhausted, the other day we did it 4 times

 

[KrissyB]

..... And you have a toddler?? Kudos, woman!

 

[hunni12]

That day he stayed with his granny LOL

 

[twinkie2]

darkriver, hope you can get back to enjoying life without all this extra stress, hope christmas holds a wonderful gift for you!

 

[MellyH]

Hunni, they recommend no more than once a day when you're trying to get pregnant! It takes that long for your husband to produce another set of good sperm.

I mean, you should totally have sex four times a day FOR FUN if you want, but not when you're near ovulation! Just checking.

 

[confuzion]

Hey .. can I join in? Weve been TTC for 9 months but ive mostly been staying away from these threads because every month AF comes and its disappointing But im feeling really hopful this month. We BD every second day until O was confirmed which is hard for us . And im 9 dpo today. AF is due on Monday. No symptoms or anything but things are just a little different than they usually are right before AF iykwim. And have a lot more CM than usual. So im feeling really hopful that we finally did it!

Can I join in? Not in my TWW yet but will be in the next few days, I will be testing from around the 25th June! Good luck everyone x

Welcome ladies!! And good luck!

DR, bluefish, and Macy - I am so sorry loves

Smiley - you are a MACHINE! That's one intense BD schedule .

Still holding out for you deal!
