Lol! My DH is the same with dishes. All he has to do is put them in the dishwasher but ot doesnt always happen
The couple I work for were having an argument about dishes yesterday too! She couldnt find her watch and she was saying she set it right by the sink. And her DH was like, "Does your jewelry belong by the sink?" To which she responded that she was doing dishes while he had drinks at the neighbors...he didnt have much to say after that lol. 5 dpo here. I will check back in with symptoms if I get any!

Ladies can you take a look at my OPK please an let me know what you think I've been getting the faint line since last Thursday :/ so really don't know what to think now x x x TIA x x x

Yeah it looks negative to me. Has it gradually been getting any darker, at all? When I first used OPK's they would start out really faint at around cd6 and gradually get darker until around cd13 or 14 when it was first positive (test line as dark as control). You could also try a different brand. I used Wondfo and was very happy with them

I'm one of those women who's positive OPK's test line is never really darker than the control, it's been either the same as the control or maybe only very slightly darker. I've never heard of the OPK being positive even if it's fainter than the control line so can't comment on that

N . Miller, hopefully your temp will go up tomorrow.

Macy, happy anniversary! Lots of BDs for the next few days.

Kat, I'm sure you can make an appointment after the supposed AF date. It takes a while, at least for me, to see the RE. It's been 2 months since we got referred and I'm still waiting for my first appointment.

Hunni, I hope to see 2 lines for you. . FX!

Babyjan, online is definitely cheaper and if you still have time..why not .


Smiley, tww! Yayy

OK I hadn't thought of the fact it might take a while to get an appointment I'm not sure how quick things go here in Denmark, maybe DH should ask his friend (who had a baby with IVF) how quickly him and his wife got referred and had their first appointment. If it takes that long, then maybe we should just go ahead and tell our GP to refer us now.

Congrats to slowloris and confuzion on your bfp's

And here's some baby dust to everyone else who's still in the running for a bfp

No I thought it was darker at the beginning (last thurs) but only cd6 but not darker or same as. Control line! I'm cd 12 so will see what tomorrow brings x x

Hmmm I'm no expert but maybe your body keeps gearing up to O but then doesn't and keeps trying You could also try testing 2x a day instead but if you know when you normally O, then I'd only do that a few days before that. Maybe try another brand as well.

Hope you soon get a positive OPK

Maybe you could also monitor CM at the same time and see if your fertile that way. When I used OPKs, I'd also monitor my CM.

After BDing I am always terrified to sneeze or cough!
Don't want to lose any of the precious gold!

Hahaha I am the same! What about when you have to pee?! That is the worst!

SAME. I normally lay really still and try to mentally suck those babies up If hubby wasn't in the room, I would probably stand on my head... can't lie! I wish our bodies had a little indicator light that they made it.

I'm also like this I've found the best thing is just to lie pretty flat on the bed with my legs bent at the knees, feet flat on bed. Then I read a book to help me relax while I wait Some say the whole putting your butt way up with legs in the air can result in the "deposit" pooling at the top way above your cervix opening and making it harder for the to get in. Lying flat the "deposit" should be pooling at the cervix opening which is where you want it to be

You could also try using softcups, that's what I did this cycle. But being a chicken, I first put it in after about ½ hour to make sure that if I did mess up, then most of the good got up there

 

[jmandrews]

Temp up .3 today!!! Eek! Yay hope that means I O'd yesterday! If we don't catch this eggy I'll be shocked! Especially with all the BDing we've done this cycle.

 

[smiley4442]

Ok ladies CD10 for me. This is the darkest it's been!! I can't believe my opk had nothing 2 days ago. Anyway. This was taken at 8:30 am because I have running to do today around the normal time and this was just a 2 hour hold when I usually do a 3. So my pee was a lot lighter then normal. I think I'm gonna retest this afternoon since its so close to being a positive. What do you guys think?? Sorry a little excited!

 

[inatina55]

Temperature yesterday was 98.3...today it was 98.8. I'm praying this is a good sign. Yes? No?

 

[smiley4442]

Yay jmandrews!! Looks like we will be close on testing day.

 

[twinkie2]

Yay for temp rise!! Hoping you caught that egg JM!! My goodness you've been a busy girl!

 

[Deal9027]

Love all the DH talk!!! My DH does ALL the yardwork and I do most of the housework. It's a pretty even situation so I'm happy with that. The one area we both have to work together to keep up with is LAUNDRY (and not the way Kynia does it...lol!!!). Our house produces at least one load of laundry a day!!! It's way too easy to get behind in it. And when DH decides to do a load of it he always does all his clothes!!!! That drives me crazy!!! At least throw in a little bit of everyones

How is everyone doing today? I'm in a fiesty, fabulous mood (this is for sure, the funnest part of my cycle)!!

 

[KrissyB]

uuuuuuuuuuuuugggh. I was so excited for this month, now I feel miserable. Thinking it's less and less likely I have allergies... and worse than that, more and more likely I might get a fever and mess up my temps! Grrr. If nothing else this cough has me up all night and is destroying my sleep.

Smiley - the OPK is looking great! I would definitely start temping 2x a day now!

JM - Congrats on the temp rise! Good luck!

 

[MellyH]

JM, inatina, great temperature rises!

1DPO today here. Welcome to the TWW I guess! We had sex CD11, 12, 13 and 14 so I think we gave it as much as we could.

 

[KrissyB]

Melly - Didn't you mention previously that you have also have short cycles? You still O on CD14?

 

[n.miller]

uuuuuuuuuuuuugggh. I was so excited for this month, now I feel miserable. Thinking it's less and less likely I have allergies... and worse than that, more and more likely I might get a fever and mess up my temps! Grrr. If nothing else this cough has me up all night and is destroying my sleep.

That's what happened to me on my last cycle.


Ok. RE appointment at 11:30. I'm terrified. Hoping nothing horrible in the blood work. DH and I have agreed to have him tested if I am a carrier for the genetic disorders. RE may do a beta and I'm nervous about the results, although my gut is telling me its gonna be a

 

[cutieq]

lots to keep up on!!!

loving the OPK lines. it's BD time ladies!!!! I started the BD marathon yesterday, even though I shouldn't O for another 6-8 days. I will start OPK testing tomorrow.

Deal, I'm feeling freaking and feisty myself!

 

[Deal9027]

Melly - Fx Fx Fx you get your BFP!!

N.Miller - Fx Fx Fx that your appointment goes well!!! I hope you get a surprise BFP!!!!!!!

 

[twinkie2]

Welcome to the tww melly!!! Hope this is your last one for a while!

Cutie and Deal-use that fiestiness and get loads of bd in while it's fun!

AFM, bfn's today posted in the test thread. Not a fan of my temp pattern even though it means next to nothing, but hate that it seems to be stepping down slowing, making me think AF will yet again be on schedule this Sunday, hoping I'm wrong and she stays away. Should know within a few more days I guess. Ugh, I hate waiting!

 

[akilgore2012]

Good luck at your appt today n.miller! I'm keeping my FX that you get a surprise BFP!

 

[Lynny77]

Melly I can't believe you're already in the 2ww! Funny how last cycle we were cycle buddies now this cycle I'll be a full week behind you! Boo long cycles!

Krissy hope you feel better soon.

Smiley that looks positive to me!

n.miller good luck with your appointment today! I have to go see my family doctor on thursday because something came up in the bloodwork. Booo!

Went in for another follicle scan today. She wants me back on Thursday then everyday after that until I ovulate. And I'm supposed to work this weekend so I'm not sure what I'm going to do. Why does it all have to happen at once? I couldnt ovulate now that I'm off? lol.

 

[Tryin4num3]

My husband is useless. I have been working hard to keep on top of the housework and he promised to wash up. Come in and pots hadnt been done. grrr

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome!!

As far as dishes go my husband is useless also... LOL im lucky if he even puts his dishes in the sink which is never!! LOL hes so spoiled and I can only blame myself SIGH... haha

 

[KrissyB]

N. Miller and Twinkie - Hang in there! Both of your temps are still looking pretty good, and I'm keeping my FXed that you both get some s soon!!

AFM - Does anyone know if taking Dayquil can pose any harm while TTC or throw of temps or anything? I'm thinking I'm going to swim in the stuff today, and try to sleep this off before it turns into something more insidious.

 

[macydarling]

At least 5 days left until I can test
Ugh. I am going crazy already. Ugh. I wish I could stop obsessing but I cant get babies off my brain.
