Late July Testers! Let's wait together!

[MissYogi]

krissie- I think the box normally says to start around CD11, but thats if you truly have no idea when you O because the average is CD 14. I normally only start around CD 14 because I O around day 18.

belle- that's a good idea to wait for a little while before testing, you wouldn't want to get a false negative. I probably won't have the self control to wait though!

cobyn- hope everything gets sorted out with your SO, make up BDing is always fun though!

AFM, we have started our BDing schedule, OH is totally into it although he says it's hard to act like it's spontaneous when we both know it's coming. I was just out shopping and bought some sexy panties for my wedding day and for the honeymoon so I'm excited to make good use of them!

Everything!! YAYY for Positive OPK!!! Get to BD Hun!!! Fx for you!!

Olivelove, Hi! As I have been away from TTC for 3 years my knowledge of the cervix characteristics during ovulation is no help Bc I can't remember anything about it and I hated sticking my hand up there....
But I hope you Ovulated and DTD!!!

AFM : 4DPO; the fertility app is telling me to test on the 14th but I think I'll wait until the 20th Bc I'm not feeling anything here..

Thank you! We kind of decided last minute to ttc so did not get the chance to get any ovulation tests, so I feel like this isn't my month! Fingers crossed for you

Completely prepared for the evil witch go show herself in a few days. I haven't had any signs of here til now. I went pee a few minutes ago and when I wiped it was the smallest shade of light pink ever. So I'm gonna say it's spotting and just assume this month is a bust. Worst thing about this I'm going to the beach on Thursday so if AF doesn't come in full swing by then then I'll miss cd3 testing so I can start my femera again. I feel like I'm gonna be forced to miss trying in august

Hey, that could be implantation spotting

 

[jbuggx]

Maybe I just have a weird vision of implantation bleeding but I thought it was with like CM.

I'm like bone dry down there but just the lightest shade of pink when I dab toilet paper on jayjay. Lol

 

[BelleNuit]

Bug, I often get spotting before AF shows and can always count on being out when that happens!! I hope hope hope for you it means something different!

 

[Katy78]

I normally O around CD 16 but I still start using OPKs on CD 11.

Got my positive OPK yesterday so I'm ovulating today, right on schedule . OH didn't chicken out this time so TWW - here I come!

 

[maryp0ppins]

Im using a cbfm and will start testing for ovulation tomorrow (cd9)

 

[WishnandHopn]

jbug don't give up yet, it's not over until the witch arrives!

I am cautiously going to say I'm 2 dpo today...no temping this month means I'm not really sure but CM has all dried up. DH and I were supposed to get in one more BD last night to be on the safe side but instead we decided to have a fight right before bed, so that spoiled the mood. We worked it out...but won't be BDing again until after my doctor's appt on Tuesday.

Hello ladies, it's time for me to officially join the late July thread. I have a lot of catching up to do because I just can't bare to do it early in my cycle.. It's my fertile window now though so I feel like I'm back in in again. Honestly between my son and work we are having done on our house I had been occupied with thoughts other than ttc. I almost forgot about my appointment with my OBGYN tomorrow too, thank goodness they called. Here's to hoping there are lots of BFP's headed our way!

I totally understand, BUT since you didn't know exactly when you ovulated it's a chance you caught the egg!!! When these young girls can get pregnant 5 times and don't know how, and didn't try one time, I think you got a great chance!!! Fx!!

 

[Ask4joy]

Hi all! I think I'm finally in my fertile window - CD 13 and ewcm this morning. Woohoo. OPK was still negative this morning but I think it's good to BD before it is positive (and after too!) I totally agree with the people who say waiting to O is just as anxiety provoking as the 2WW! Especially when timing is everything and you don't O on the exact same day every cycle!

My temps for the last 5 days or so have been more stable than I've ever seen them before O. Wonder if the myo-inositol supplement I'm taking is stabilizing my hormones?

LOL! How many DPO are you?

Anyone at 3 DPO or around and thinking...is time standing still??

 

[Atuck2]

Hey ladies,

Just joining the chat at CD12. I'm not sure when I should O, but my ovia app says it should be this week and I should be testing on July 27th.

First cycle after BC, I Oed on CD12. Second cycle, I Oed on CD20 and had a chemical pregnancy, so I have no clue how my cycle will react this month... I know it should be sometime late this week or next week since my CM is turning from sticky, glue consistency to a lotiony consistency.

 

[BelleNuit]

Olive, I'm at 4 dpo. It's certainly not exciting, but this cycle has seemed to go by quickly. Must be because it's summer

I'm glad one of us feels that way have you noticed any symptoms? I feel absolutely the same. I know it's after the implantation that you might feel differently, but I'm already trying to symptom spot..haha. I'm so busy looking after my 3 year old and summer school and that's not enough to keep my mind off of 2ww!

 

[BelleNuit]

I have shorter cycles so that helps lol. I think this one will be 25 days.

My symptoms are typical progesterone symptoms that I always get in the tww. Bloated, irritable, tender bbs, creamy cm. I always get these same symptoms so I don't think they mean much of anything lol

I think I will be flat out shocked whenever/ if I ever get a BFP haha

Any symptoms for you?

 

[krissie328]

I hear ya ladies! Yesterday I thought it was going fast. Today, not so much.

My o is all over the place, so it's always nerve wracking waiting and hoping I actually o.

I'll be shocked too! No symptoms whatsoever. Last month (even though we weren't trying) for a few days there I thought I was pregnant because I got sick, was super tired, my back was killing my and had non stop cramps around 10dpo. I don't believe in symptoms anymore LOL but it's impossible not to spot them.

I hope you do!!! I really don't know whether I did or not...this month was strange. I usually get clear signs, but didn't the month we decide to ttc
