Creamy?

Hello again! CD 4 today, thankfully I said goodbye to AF over the weekend. I've been taking the soy isoflavone for a few days, I plan on taking them until cd 6, plus my normal prenatal.

I think I finally got into a rhythm with temping! Hoorah! Hopefully I'll actually be able to confirm my O this month.

Since this is my first time using the soy I think I'm going to start my OPKS a little early in case I O ahead of schedule.

Has anyone ever had success with the he soy helping O and LP? TIA!

Bostonlove- glad you are getting temping down! I haven't personally used soy but have heard good things hopefully it works wonders for you!

Beth I am leaning towards creamy except that it is just barely white and so so thin

 

[cscbeth8421]

Boston lover- do you live in boston? I do!!! Well 10 minutes outside boston proper.

 

[BostonLover89]

Cscbeth- no, lol Boston (terrier) lover! My pups get the brunt of my baby obsession while TTC... Stroller and all lol

CD #6... Hoping 9 months from now to be getting ready to welcome a baby!

Welcome... And yes please tell us about yourself..

Todmommy- I might lean towards creamy, however given where you are in your cycle it seems odd that you would have creamy CM. Our damn bodies are so stinking confusing!!!

BostonLove- Glad to see you back, I cant help with the iso advice, hopefully someone will be able to tho..

cscbeth8421 I am hoping to get a fitbit soon and would love to be buddies!!!

Sooo. I've decided that waiting to test is overrated....Besides, I feel like it would be a bigger letdown to get a BFN after waiting, whereas seeing the BFNs earlier on would make it less of a shock.

And with that lame ass explanation, here is my 6DPO BFN hahaha. Don't really know why I bothered, was originally gonna wait until Wednesday but then thought 'well, I do have to pee...' and that was that. Giving the rest to DH to hide until Wednesday though lol.

Lol! This is how I feel about testing too. Given, this is the first cycle we are trying with our #1, so I am VERY new to this whole thing. I also know how unlikely it is to conceive on the first try.
I'm 8dpo and AF is due oct. 4. I've taken 2 tests already with BFN (I know it's way early to test) but today marks 6 days before my missed AF so I tried the Early First Response test this morning (BFN). The only reason I have been wanting to take tests so early is because I had symptoms very early on. Of course, this probably doesn't mean I'd get a possible BFP early either.

 

[cscbeth8421]

Jaxie- you're an early tester too?! You're in the right place!

Todmommy- in regards to your cm, wait and check it later. Im sure you'll have a more definite answer.

Hi Girls! I'm back.

Wow, that was a lot of travel... From September 12 I've been in airplanes for a total of 30+ hours. I couldn't even tell you how many hours in the car/bus. I'm exhausted, but happy to be back at home in KSA.

Two days before my wedding my mom had a bridal shower for me at my aunt's house. My grandfather went out the front door took a step and fell down. He broke his femur and needed surgery, so he couldn't attend the wedding. It seemed so crazy because we decided to have the reception there now because of him. He has multiple forms of cancer one which has now spread to his bones. But anyways...Thanks be to God for everything.

I've missed you all! I just tried to take a few minutes to go through and read the posts that I've missed. Fingers crossed for everyone.

My chat is wacky again. Two missing temps due to long air travel and only a handful of solid circles from not temping at the same time everyday. However, FF has given me crosshairs and notes that I'm 7dpo today.

 

[cscbeth8421]

Welcome back!!!! Your chart looks great! Do you think you've covered your bases?

Welcome back!!!! Your chart looks great! Do you think you've covered your bases?

FF says O on CD 16
we BDed CD 14 late evening and CD 17 very early morning (maybe it could be counted as CD 16 as it was like 12 am) and late evening. So I'm hoping that will do..as we missed day before and day of.

Yay ivska welcome back! Was so excited when I saw your name as the last post! sorry to hear about your grandpa your chart looks awesome!

It's good to be back. I wanted to check in while I was away, but there just wasn't time!

One of my co-workers just told me she is pregnant. She was due af yesterday. She told me the test was faint. I told her to show me the pic. It was BLAZING...like same color as control line. When i told her this she said "but isnt it supposed to be darker than the other line?" I said "noooo! That is only ovulation tests!!!!"

Sooo many babies!!!

Symptom spotting: crampy and full feeling in lower belly. Metallic taste in mouth and salivating a ton! Like, i might drool. Lmao

Todmommy if it's more clear and watery than creamy I would say watery.

Welcome new ladies!! Sorry boston I haven't taken soy so can't be much help but would agree with testing sooner.

Jaxie, yay for early testing haha! You're right, it's unlikely to get a positive before 10DPO so you've got lots of time! Every month I think I'm getting symptoms, but I guess it's just the increase in progesterone cuz it causes all the same symptoms. Hopefully we both get early BFP though!

Welcome back Ivska!!!

Hey ladies! Ive been following you guys multiple times a day. Just have nothing to report. Im bloated, but thats it. 4dpo and still planning to hold out till next tuesday.
Off topic- dh and i are doing some friendly competition. Whoever looses the highest percentage of body weight in 2 weeks has to pay the other $100. Weigh in is next tuesday as well. Wouldnt it be great to get my BFP and win $100 in the same morning!!!!???!!!! Im down 4lbs in 6 days. We also just got treadmill in the basement so ive been watching my shows while i walk after our son goes to bed. Anyone use fitbit? Wanna be buddies?!

Good for you... Healthy competition is so much fun and it is the biggest motivator.

I've been in a 100 mile walking challenge for the month of September and I only have 7 miles to go to make my 100 mile mark.

It is an excellent way to keep my mind occupied while I wait.. I would love to be your buddy.

Welcome back lvksa, glad to see your travels were all safe... Sorry about your grandpa, but I agree your chart looks great!! Definitely good timing.

I'm just sitting over here wondering how I am going to make it to next week... LOL

 

[Blackrain90]

Get your OH to hide your tests haha. Working for me now, no way he will give them to me early.

That is a great idea... EXCEPT, DH is always the one asking if it is time to test yet. But I will try this approach. He may see it as a competition in which case he will do everything he can to keep them away from me!!
