[Flibberty87]

Like liz said, it would get it out of the way sooner!

And I always said I wanted two kids before 30.. I'm 26 now so it would ensure my goal lol

I would have loved twins first time round and we did have twins running in the family...now that I have 1, I'm terrified of the idea of 2! lol

 

[Navyvet98]

Hi can you add me...I start testing October 1st !

 

[DSemcho]

My DH only wants one, and I want two... Twins run in my family and there is also the fact that we may be doing IVF so that can kinda up our chances depending on how many eggs we use.

Hi all! Count me in. Af seems to have disappeared, after only 2 days, weird! Anyway I should start testing around oct 19th. to all!

Today is a very good day! Yesterday I interviewed for a job and I tried really hard. I researched the company and everything.

Today they called me and offered me the job I'm so happy

Congratulations. What are you going to be doing?

Omg I'm sooo proud of my husband!! Okay... So he called medical and got an appointment for the fertility specialist. They wanted to do next week, but he told them no the week after would be better. And I asked him why not next week, and he said because they told him no intercourse for 3 - 5 days... That totally just made my heart melt because he remembered that my fertile period is from tomorrow until the 4th

So our appointment is set up for the 8th!! So even if I get my positive OPK on the 5th we can still BD that day.

That's so sweet!

Of course! We love Sofaqueen, she is awesome

Can anyone tell me what ovulation pain feels like? Because I've been having these crampy pinchy pains in both of mine today. Is that what it is?

 

[hopefulfor1st]

I always said I'd love twins...until I had just one newborn.

I also had a friend with trips and it seriously sent her whacko. She used to be really nice....now she doesn't have many friends and her and her husband have just split.

I have bad asthma but it feels different right now, would be awesome if all of it led to a bfp though! As for ovulation I usually feel cramping pinches or a general achyness around that time so good luck!

Same thig I've done for years. Looking after old people with mental health problems. Love it!

I teach kindergarten through second graders with mental health problems (emotional disorders).

I tested with an opk this morning at 8 and it was positive (test line was actually darker than it was last night). Retook at 2:30, still positive. Going to try to have some baby making fun tonight and tomorrow morning. My husband has to work until almost midnight tomorrow so I think it might be too late by then.

 

[Jrepp]

I feel like I should know the answer to this question, but I am still somewhat confused. I got a positive opk last night at 7:30 pm, and again today at 8am, 2:30pm and 6:30pm. We had bedroom fun o. Friday night, Sunday night and last night (Tuesday after getting a positive opk).

My question is: do you ovulate while you have a positive on an opk or do you ovulate once it turns negative?

 

[lauren1979]

You could have just missed the surge for that day. You don't take OPKs just once a day or with just the FMU. Some women have their surge in the afternoon, some in the morning, some late at night. I generally see my darker OPKs between 6pm and 3am on my OV day

Can you have more than one surge tho?or does it just last(stay pos) for more than one day?cause that's what happened to me this month too. Had pos, then positive, then neg, then pos again!

 

[nabbz90]

This 2ww is killing me and its only my first month trying, i cant imagine doing this month after month, i think i will go MAD!
Im 6dpo and the only "symptom" i think i have is mood swings. Im potty training my 2 yr old and i just cry when he has an accident, im not that type of emotional person.

Does anyone else have symptoms?

I know it's usually one sided but I'm on clomid and that can make you release more eggs. I thought I was ovulating yesterday but my temp hasn't jumped this morning.

Although I have a really stuffy nose and when my alarm went off I had been mouth breathing so maybe thats affected it.

 

[hopefulfor1st]

So I rang my doc today about my blood test yesterday to start clomid and he said no don't take it, progesterone is 6.1 I'm in the luteal phase! So I'm officially in a natural 2ww... Just don't know at what end! Oh but I've not been bding much lately :/
Kinda been resting thinking Save it for clomid time!
A bit annoyed but excited I oved naturally, but bummed I didn't bd much and it means I can't start my clomid til this natural AF comes.

 

[Flibberty87]

Update on my niece's predictions. I'm having a girl and a boy. And the boy will be called zander.

When I was pregnant last, we decided if it was a boy he would be called Alexander. She didn't know this.

Freaked me out lol

Hopeful- yay for natural ov! Hope you've caught that eggy!
