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

[MellyH]

QT, I'm right there with you, been very short and cranky (and teary!).

 

[Cheekygringo]

I've had nothing except a few cramps. I haven't been symptom spotting and I'm usually busy doing something, but the cramps are very obvious when it happens.

Dumb phone giving double posts

Trying to play catch up here ladies!

So awesome to have so many ttc buddies! Dumb q - is the day you O 1dpo or the day after?

I did the pineapple last cycle and got my BFP. Not saying it's related but anything that worked for a BFP cycle, I will repeat lol. I should be starting today or tomorrow and finishing off the bd marathon Sunday!

Dpo stands for days past ovulation . So 1 dpo is the day after you ovulated

Confuzion - Being tired is DEFINITELY a symptom. It was my biggest issue for my first trimester with DD. Tired doesn't even describe it, it was more like narcoleptic!

Smiley - Congrats on the award for your DS! That is awesome (and adorable)!

Melly and QT- Fingers crossed the mood swings are a sign of impending s!!

AFM - I am feeling great. I don't know what to make of it being so late in my cycle, but I'm so relieved to definitively know I'm either on O day or 1 dpo And we've had a good schedule to catch the eggy I think. Temps are already rising too!

 

[smiley4442]

So I'm 99% sure I'm ovulating today. A very strong OPK (positive yesterday too) TMI I had ewcm when I wiped. Yay!

 

[MellyH]

Krissy, that's definitely a good sex schedule! Good luck!! And welcome to the TWW.

smiley, go catch that egg!

Ohh, I hope being cranky is a good sign. I keep snapping at DH for minor things, poor guy.

Well, I'm in limbo. Have been spotting (brown) on and off for the past 3 days, my temp is not incredibly high but still above coverline, and I'm not experiencing my usual AF symptoms but different things instead (notably: killer back pain and acid reflux with - a first for me - dry heaving. What!).

Not getting ahead of things though, I'm still preparing myself for AF to set in at any second. #NoFalseHope My first cycle started off with spotting spotting spotting, me having tons of hope and googling everything, and then having AF come in, only to leave, and come back again. GAH GAH GAH. So I'm not jumping to any conclusions and taking it day by day this time around (cycle 3).

But I will be testing tomorrow morning if it's still just a bit of spotting because I promised myself I could. Just to get it out of my system, I guess. I'd be 14DPO then.

Melly & QT - I'm right there with you in the moody department - I had a wicked case of the grumps late afternoon/early evening yesterday. Today I'm more playful with it and have my whole office laughing at my snarky, sarcastic comments. It's making me laugh too so I guess I'm in a better mood today...so far!!! For me though, I am certain this is PMS and I'm just hoping the holds off until at least Tuesday so I can make it 10dpo. I just don't want to see a super short LP and even at 10DPO it would mean my cycle would only be 24 day long. But I am SUPER blessed and will often PMS for up to a week before I get my period!! Lucky, lucky me!!!!!!

 

[curiousowl]

Katie, that sounds exciting! Good luck, fingers crossed for you!

Deal, you and me both. I'm also 7dpo and hoping AF holds off until at least Tuesday. Just really hoping I have normal LP.

So my vaginal cramps stopped completely yesterday evening and I got this on an opk this morning. Is it safe to say I am 1dpo now? Its dark but still considered negative

 

[KrissyB]

Hunni - So I think the way it works is that you can ovulate anywhere from 12-36 hours after your first positive OPK. So if you're first positive was CD 16.... then I'd say tomorrow at the latest you're 1 dpo.
But I am far from an expert so some of the more experienced ladies here might have a better answer.

 

[hunni12]

Yeah only reason I am thinking I O'd yesterday was because I had the vaginal cramping cd16 and cd17 and by cd17 evening it stopped and I no longer feel it

 

[KrissyB]

Well it could definitely have been yesterday! I mean I got my positive OPK yesterday, and today temps are already rising, so I might have had a short spike (so 12 hours between positive OPK and O). I just don't know if you can say definitively you're 1 dpo without temping.

 

[KatieSweet]

Thanks CuriousOwl I'll post an update when I have one!

 

[bluefish1980]

Well, it's all been very wired but AF is definitley here now.

When I thought it had started it very quickly turned into very light spotting but with CM. I started to get my hopes up but this afternoon it turned to normal flow.

On to the next and 25th cycle!!!!!!

Good luck to those still to test.

 

[hunni12]

Honestly if I didn't have the vag cramps I wouldn't have known that was my only clue that I could have been O'ing which means Im back on my reg 30 day cycle. I guess I'll just count today as 1dpo since after 2 days of pos its now negative. If this cycle is a bust I will def temp next month. Now I just gotta go buy some pineapples lol


sorry the witch got you blue
