I'm out... Af showed up 1 day early just to rub it in my face. I know I've not been trying as long as some people but its starting to get to me now. I put off trying for baby no 2 as though I would fall pregnant quick and now I'm not I'm regretting not trying earlier. X

 

[SeeingDouble]

So sorry, honey!!! FXed for a BFP to bring you a Christmas baby!!!

 

[lcgoodac]

I already have one christmas baby! Would be an expensive time every year if I was to have 2!

Lol, that's VERY true! My mom is a Christmas baby (grandma thought she was having indigestion after Xmas dinner, but she was in labor) but she celebrates in June. June is my hell month, financially. Hubs bday is 5/29, my twins is 6/3, Fathers Day is floating around there, and ex-hubs (for whom I have to buy a gift from the kids) is 6/22. I told hubs if he doesn't knock me up by next Aug, he has to STAY AWAY in September!!

Hello everyone! Hoping I can join! I'm back for round 3 and I am currently 8 DPO and I refuse to test before 14 DPO this month. So please put me down for testing on Tuesday the 12th please?

I've been taking B6 supplements this month so I will be curious to see if that makes any difference. I did ovulate even later this month by 2 days, day 19 instead of 17, maybe my cycle is off from having a chemical last month?? I'm fine with that as long as I still have a long enough LP for implantation....

GL Ladies!

Hang in there Nadia....our time will come! It has to!!!

 

[NadiaSweety]

Hang in there Nadia....our time will come! It has to!!!

Yes. Next cycle!

This cycle was a mess and though AF has not shown up yet I have given up. I got some advice on my Chart and it added the crosshairs days after when I thought I Oed. So with not enough BD around that day I am very unlikely to make it this month. But I learned a LOT. Next month I feel really confident about my charting and that I will be able to watch for the right signs. Too bad it took 6cycles to figure out what I am doing...

 

[twiggers]

I bet you'll have a BFP next month with all of your new knowledge!!

 

[Jean40]

Blah, I thought I O'd on Sunday, but my temp went up only one day, then back down low since. WTH? Did I try to O and then didn't? I had "peak" CBFM and smiley on Sat morning, felt O pains later on that day. I had all the BD timed right and everything.

 

[melann13]

I'm 9dpo
So I had these high temps and felt awful the last few days and was hopeful that it was preg related, but it got way worse so I went to the Dr. Tonsilitis. So antibiotics (preg safe ones just in case) and ice cream it is. Was feeling really bummed that all my weird feelings of dizziness, nausea, sore throat, hot flashes etc were just me being sick, but now today I've had some very pinpointed pains in my uterus (had them yesterday too, but much stronger today- particularly on one spot towards the left) and then when I got home and went to the bathroom I had some tan CM, I've never had this before- ever. Here's hoping it was Implantation Spotting! If I'm honest I may test Friday at 11dpo. If I behave myself I'll wait til the weekend. I have the super cheap Wondfo ones so I don't feel bad about that.
Baby dust to everybody!!
And P.S. to those talking about people who get their BFPs right away... I got my BFP on my 2nd month off of BC. But then MC at 7.5 wks. Now it's taking longer. Just tell yourself that your body should have more time off of the extra hormones. I'm not trying to pretend that people fresh off BC can't have healthy babies. I'm just saying that it can be really healthy for your body to have a chance to make all the hormones that you need to support a pregnancy by itself.

@Twag... would just focus on other things for now. Time will tell, try not to commit to one side or the other - only will bring misery in wait if you're sure it's over or massive disappointment if you get your hopes up to be dashed. FX for you, my friend, that you don't have to do this another cycle!

I can't wait for your my niece died this last week and then while on our road trip to the funeral (and all during it) all 3 of my babies were throwing up- then hubby and I both got it- man what a horrible last 10-12 days I've had ( I found out I was Pregnant 30 min before I got the call about my niece) so anyway sorry I've been so sparratic on here but I've been meaning to ask you what your previous BC was before ttc?

Me or Twag? I was on Errin (progesterone-only mini-pill, aka Ortho Micronor and Noriday) from Jul 2011-Oct 2012, Depo before that.

Yes I have been temping @ 6 am every single morning.

Do you take your temp in bed or do you get up and walk around first. I noticed that my temps were all over the place when I was walking to the bathroom first. My doctor advised me to take it while I am still lying in bed. dont even sit up if you can help it. It really helped the temps be more stable from day to day.

I take my temp every morning around 5am but I go straight to the bathroom and test. I don't want to wake DH with thermometer beeping. Mine seem stable so far, I wonder what it is meant to do to my temps though as I just figured consistency is better taking the temp the same way every morning should produce the same results. Is there some theory behind the in bed not moving thing?

The in bed before moving temp is truly the "basal" (aka resting) temperature. As long as you do exactly the same thing everyday, yours would be offset by exactly the same amount everyday and for charting purposes, it should be totally fine. Especially if you've been doing it that way and don't have any trouble interpreting your chart.

The showed up I was expecting her just not yet I was hoping to keep my 15 day LP

2013 Baby looking less & less likely

GL Ladies

Oh, Twag, I was so sorry to read this! to you!

Timing for March is not looking good so I am not looking hopeful for cycle 7 2014 Baby here I come I guess

What's wrong with timing this time around? More house-related issues?

I'm not doing a very good job temping this month... Not bothered by it now, but I know I will be pissed at myself later this month!
Going to start OPKing tomorrow...

If you need motivation to temp correctly, as not to have a heinous chart, feel free to have a look at mine... travel + drinking + sleep deprivation = no friggin' way to interpret f**kall this month! I'm actually still so sleep deprived I only sort've care right now, will likely be super upset when I start a new cycle... at some point... no idea when, because I'm still not sure if/ when I may have ovulated!

Well I did a digital this evening to confirm and I think you can put me down for a BFP!! Will be going to the doctors this week to do some blood work. Praying for a sticky bean, hubby is sooo excited...well we both are for our first

Congrats to you!

LOROJOVANOS With positive OPKs, the OV doesn't occur until they are one, no longer positive, and two, after the last positive for about 12-36hrs. They OPKs just show the surge. gL FXD!


I am so sorry that AF has flown in on you FOOTIEC, PIXIEMAMA, TWAG, HOPETHISYEAR, GARFIE, HWPG, and LCGOODAC I hope that you will join us again on your next cycle! APRIL will be up mid-month, next week!! GL


Ladies wanting to Chart/temp Click on my chart in my signature, sign up for a free account there and then fertilityfriend has awesome charting and temping information to follow. It even offers courses, updates, and information from FS and OB docs to the method of charting and OV. It is truly a helpful OV tool and tool to get to know your cycle. I would totally recommend FF, because outside of a doctor appt with U/S you cannot count on CM or OV pains to say OV happened nor can you use the 14-day rule alone GL



I just love being able to help you all through your TTC journey. I have been running the testing threads for some time now and haven't lost steam even with a BFP to stop, so any updates on myself, I am entering in my journal, feel free to stop by!

 

[lorojovanos]

Hi Ladies,
Just have a quick question about Bravelle. I will be starting it next cycle and the only thing I didn't ask my RE was the cost. If any one has taken it before (In Canada) can you let me know the price of it?

 

[Charisse28]

BFN for me, CD5 today. Just got a chance to update.

 

[Bellydreams]

Temp drop and this morning. Waiting for AF but doesn't feel like she will show.

 

[melann13]

Symptom spotting at 10dpo
6-10dpo waves of nausea and dizziness
8-10dpo pinching in a very specific point in my uterus
9dpo: Tan CM, just a small amount, otherwise EWCM
9-10dpo nosebleeds even though I'm sleeping with a humidifier; stupid brain, confusing words and forgetting what I was doing; waking up during the night to pee which I NEVER do, waking up once because stomach was growling
10dpo:Breasts sore today, not abnormal but the pain is a little different. Weird twinges and pressure continue in a very particular spot on the left side of my uterus.
Backache today. Swear I saw some pink in my CM today. Today it was very much like EWCM.
Took a HPT this afternoon because I'm more convinced than I've ever been. Completely negative. It was a 3.5 hr hold. I know it's early, and I still really feel like I am preg. Just thought that with all these symptoms something would show up by now. I have cheap Wondfo ones so I'll probably test again in the morning.

 

[SeeingDouble]

IT'S MARCH!!!! COME ON BFPs!!!!


As promised...... to help ease the stress.

You MUST keep in mind that this is based on a 28-30 day cycle. So if you know that yours is shorter or longer, you have to tweak the numbers or days a little.... GL Ladies

March!!!


https://thomasgwyndunbar.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/conception2implantation.jpg?w=513&h=388

This is just an idea of the timing, give or take a day ladies!

This really only works/makes sense to look at if you know (based on temp drop or specific digi monitor) the exact Ovulation day.

AFTER IMPLANTING HCG does not build up enough to show on an HPT or Blood test for 2-3 days! Keep this in mind... Implantation can occur as late as 12DPO!


(Just to keep us in perspective... The thread moves quickly and everyone can't keep up as it does or are new to the thread and haven't read back. I think this will give some good motivation in the middle of the week!)

*Thanks DEBZIE*

OK, since this mentions tweaking the numbers if your cycle is shorter or longer, I have a question!!! Do you implant earlier if you have a short cycle? Or does your cycle not matter, only your LP? I'm confused!!!!

 

[lorojovanos]

Can I be added to the 20th please? I had ovulation confirmed via BW today

 

[southernbound]

Hi! Can I join? . DH and I tried for a year to conceive our first and took a break and this is cycle 4 trying anew. Im testing the 11th and had a huge temp spike today so I'm hoping hoping hoping!
