hw, i'm just sharing what i know or read...i'm by no means an expert, so please dont think i'm a know it all because i'm not. I love trying to help people as best as i can with my knowledge to try to help you all. I hope my advice really helps.:) Definately hope there is good news next weekend.... I can't wait!!
 
Def didn't mean to come across that way - I really do think you know you're stuff! we're all here to give and take advice.
I'm 6dpo and nothing to report. :/
 
Okay, so more on the saga that is my temping...

Just a little history: Wednesday through Saturday, my temp was 97.58. Yesterday, my temp dipped to 97.45. Today, my temp went back to 97.58. I know that my temp obviously has "went up", but should I count it since that really isn't higher than normal? I'm sorry guys. I am a complete newbie when it comes to this. Ask me about infertility, and I've probably got an answer (or educated guess), but this "conceiving naturally" stuff, I'm a complete idoit.
 
Well, I guess I belong here! I *think* I ovulated yesterday so that would make me 1DPO today, but I'm not entirely sure about it as my cycles are a bit irregular and I haven't payed attention to ovulation ever before. I really don't have any hopes this month as it's the first and only had one insemination through NI on Saturday night AND I don't even know when I've ovulated (or if...cos I haven't noticed any ewcm??!), could be today as I'm feeling some dull ache and tiny twingles here and there and feel kinda tired and down...I have no idea, we'll se what happens but yeah...not counting on it!

Good luck to everyone and lots and lots of baby dust!!!
 
thanks tlibra and riley...good luck to you both and FX and lots of :dust: to you both too!

rachael..maybe let's wait and see what tomorrow and the next day temp is and go from there. It's just hard to say, you have to give it a few days to notice a change. I'm hoping for you. :hugs:

6dpo today...had a few cramping or twinging spells this am, but i've had them before and ended up not preggo. Had a temp dip today too...hope it goes back up tomorrow.
 
hi all! welcome new peeps!
so, bray, my thermometer only does tenths of degrees, not hundreths, so if i had your temps, there would only be 0.1 degree change on my thermometer. i forgot what you are asking: are you asking if the temp change indicates Ov, or if you should record it? because for Ov, it has to change by 0.4 and stay elevated. you should see a nice thermal shift after Ov - check out Mama and my graph. (perhaps i'm being dumb here, as i said, i'm not sure what the original question was anymore... doh!)
Mama, i am 7dpo - i also had some cramping last night. reallly mild, thought it might be bathroom related (sorry if that is gross), but it was persistent for a couple hours. also yesterday, i was grocery shopping and out of no where thought i was going to vomit. very sudden nausea - lasted like 30 mins, then gone. (yea, i'm not symptom spotting or anything). a few more days..... we can do it....
 
HW that sounds really good! Yey!!!! :happydance:

Well, I think I'm actually going to ovulate. I had some ewcm today on my undies. Yey!!! lol So, I guess I'll bd for the next 3 days, or until it looks like I've ovulated. I've been having a really rough time w/the whole, "I'm never going to get pregnant" thing and the "Please God don't let my SIL get pregnant before me b/c I really don't think I can handle it and I'll probably make a complete ass out of myself" thing. Ugh! I really hate this "TTC" thing. :cry:
 
bray, just an fyi - for me and my body, i get ewcm 4 days before i ovulate. i mean, it is like clockwork. are you still doing opks? keep in mind that SMEP says "every other day until pos opk, then 3 in a row". afm, if this month doesnt work, i am going to wait until ewcm, then 3 days in a row (like you are doing!), maybe 4. basically what i'm trying to say in GOOD LUCK!!! and also, i completely freaking understand about the SIL comment/feeling. i felt the same about my sister - who is now pregnant with her second. there went that plan! (oh and my best friend also!) doh! we understand! we love you, no matter what your timing will be. (WILL be. WILL.)
 
Thanks HW. Hopefully, none of us will need to worry about any of this next month. :)
 
By the way Heather, I forgot to mention, thank you for looking up that info.:hugs: It makes sense to me why on a digital (as that's all I've ever done) it has only ever shown a surge once. I really appreciate you taking the time to look all of that up for me. The girl who called the OPK place was brilliant! Instead of guessing, she called 'em up. Who would have ever thought of that?! lol

I'm a little bummed. My temp hasn't went up yet. It actually went back down to 97.45. It keeps going back and forth. We bd last night w/preseed and soft cups and we didn't bd Sunday, so he should have been stock full of good swimmers. Hopefully those spermies stay up there and alive until that egg comes down.

So are you girlies getting excited to:test:in the next couple of days???
 
Very excited! and your welcome hun. There are so many things too that can throw your temp out of whack and vary each day. If it's having to get up in the night or cold or making sure you take it the exact same time every day cuz the later you take it, the higher it will be. (ive noticed and read anyway). Maybe today is your O day, how long ago was your smiley? One month I got my smiley and didn't ovulate that day or the next, it was 2 days after the smiley. The normal or average i guess 12-36 hours. Or like I said before your body geared up to O but won't actually...maybe later in your cycle you will get a surge again and actually O. You just have to keep temping and opking. How long is your cycle usually? I asked you before but don't think you answered me.
 
I have totally had a 'warm up' surge, not O'd, the a second surge later with O, confirmed with temp rise. I feel like there is no normal, therefore any experience is normal!
I am getting scared to test. Ok, not to test, but that the day is coming. I get more depressed, then hopeful, then angry, then hopeful, then depressed. I just don't want to see my period one. More. Time. *sigh* I really have nothing to complain about, I just feel down. But Mama you make me smile and keep my spirits high because you are already looking forward to it! So.... I guess I can also!
 
even if i think it will be bfn, there is just always, always a chance! you just never know for sure until af comes. being hopeful is the least we can be right now. Good luck to you and fx for you hun!
 
yourchart is looking good too! better than previous ones!...that should give you hope! i have hope only cuz on previous cycles i always had a dip 2dpo, this time i didn't...just feels like i have a good chance, but i could be setting myself up for disaster. oh well.
 
My cycle is USUALLY 28 days, but last month it was 32 days...yuck...

I'm so excited for you ladies! I hope you both get your BFP's then, you'll be due the same time. How cool would that be???
 
yes would be very awesome...i was feeling good about this cycle yesterday...but todayfor some reason i'm feeling less hopeful. Maybe i should test tomorrow and if bfn just wait til sat when af due. Just to ease my mind...
 
Hi ladies! I am headed away camping for two days. Hoping that will take my mind off of symptom spotting and such. I am 9dpo. Had a big temp spike, weird. Damn you weird temp/body! And I poas yesterday - an opk - because I just sorta wanted to do *something* and this seemed the least innocent. there was a line but not positive. So, I will check back in on Friday evening and see where everyone is at! GL! Fx!
 
What DPO would that put you at Heather? If it will ease your mind, I say, go ahead.

When I took my temp this morning, it was up .2 degrees from yesterday, so if it goes up again tomorrow, would you say it's safe to say I Oed yesterday?
