October Sticky Beans!

todmommy I saw that line right away! YAY! That's very sweet of your hubby!! lol

AFM. I have been MIA for a few days because I was super busy with my family. Of course, I forgot to pack my thermometer so I have not been able to temp since wednesday. I got a new one today so hopefully I'll still be able to tell where I am in my cycle.

Unfortunately, I have a feeling AF will make an appearance early next week. Without fail, I get AF cramps 5 or 6 days before AF and I started cramping thursday

I suppose on the plus side, I will be able to confirm my appointment with the fertility specialist for the second week of November. At least I got that ball rolling!

Boston - I'm glad that you have your fertility appointment set up but praying that you don't have to use it

I am feeling a little silly still obsessing over tests at 14 dpo but anyways another easily readable line on a blue dye. Pretty sure I can see something on the FRER but not completely sure

Edit : Now that I posted the pictures I can't really see anything on the FRER, it looks really pixelated too, doesn't look that way on my phone. And I realized that I am a bad arrow drawer

 

[todmommy4568]

Sorry for the billion posts just wanted to see if this pic posted better if I took it directly from my phone

I'm thinking I see something todmommy! FX they start getting darker!

Congrats on the HCG results Beth! So excited for you!


AFM, No idea what's going on with my body. Still no AF Brownish spotting today. Only on TP though. Took a test thursday and got a BFN. I was so upset. I cried almost all day. DH bought be some new books on the iPad and I spent all day yesterday reading, trying to keep my mind off things. Tomorrow is CD40, If I make it to CD43 I'm taking another test.

I don't see it on the FRER but definitely see on all the blue dye tests. Man oh man just give the woman a solid answer, universe!!!

Pnut it's really odd you are that far in with no AF or BFP. Based on the temps I almost thought maybe another annovulatory cycle but you have the positive OPK. Not sure what to tell you but hopefully your body makes up it's mind soon!

 

[todmommy4568]

Right black! At this point I would welcome AF. I don't think I am preggers so something definite would be nice even if it was AF

Pnut - that's crazy! Your chart looks annovulatory even with the positive opk like maybe you geared up to O and didn't Hoping you get some answers soon!

My body is being on the odd side. I was having some definite creamy CM for a few days, then Thursday we DTD and so Fri I wasn't really able to get a good check on CM (you know, left over from DTD). Today I expected to see some actual CM again (thinking I would see some creamy CM still for another day or two) but it's more like watery/wet, maybe.I don't usually get watery CM so I don't really know what it's exactly supposed to be like.

So maybe I'm gearing up to O soon, but my breasts are really sore today. In the last couple cycles the nipples were getting sensitive before O but this is the actual breast itself.

Plus, I've got a really bad break out on my shoulders and neck. I look like a teenager again, except on my shoulder(s) instead of my face!!

UGh! What the heck!!

Todmommy - I can't see anything on the FRER, but I Can definitely see something on the blue dye.

Pnut - I don't understand what's going on with your body. From your chart I would assume anovulatory, but with the +OPK I want to think that if you did O, it would have been around CD23-24, which would put you at 15-16DPO. I can't imagine why you don't have either AF or a BFP.

I dunno. I'm really kinda hoping to wake up to AF tomorrow, so I can just move on to the next cycle.

This ttc thing take such a toll sometimes

Hi Ladies!

I'm back after a week of exams last week and then traveling to my husband's city for the weekend. Got home around 1:30 am and now I'm at work with a few minutes before my first lesson.

I hate it when I can't check our forum for a few days. I feel like I miss a lot!

I haven't had a chance to even go check for OPKs. FF predicts this Wednesday, so would it be worth it to try and find them today or tomorrow? OR should I just wing it again this cycle?

Pnut hope your body gives you a definite answer finally. this ttc can take such a toll especially when you're hanging in the limbo for quite some time!

afm.. solid crosshairs
although my temp this morning is probably not very reliable.. for some reason my alarm didn't go off at 5am, so I just temped when i woke up, which was 8:30. So my temp probably isn't really accurate. But on the plus side, i used one of those adjusters and also tried putting the adjusted temp into FF, and i still get solid crosshairs, just a tad bit lower cover line. I am going to keep the non adjusted temp though, because i don't think the adjusted one is all that accurate either.. and also it doesn't matter all that much, because i know I ovulated from the way my breasts feel. They already feel a bit heavier and my nipples are already slighty sore which must be from progesterone so that must mean i ovulated

But at least I'm in the TWW now!
And I can't help but still feel very very optimistic. We had great timing this month, for the first time ever i got this insanely positive OPK and it all just kinda felt different this month. I'm soo hoping we finally caught that egg!
I decided I'll keep temping until tuesday, 5dpo and then take a break until we get back from prague. I don't want to stress about having to wake up at 5am to take a temp. I'll just resume the temping at 9dpo when we're back home.
And can I just say that our trip is so conveniently timed that when we get back it's like almost time to test already!

Awesome! Have fun!

That's awesome cupcake!

Ivksa - I think it would still be worth it to find them

 

[todmommy4568]

I think my hunny feels bad about my temp drop this morning and the 7 month wait to TTC again......so he is letting me buy a new fitbit! I have been wanting to the maroon fitbit charge and set a weight loss goal before I could buy it but this morning I told him about my temp drop and he goes why don't you go get your new fitbit. I am so excited!!!

 

[Angel5000]

Welcome back Ivksa! If O is predicted for Wednesday, I would see if you can find some OPKs. Don't stress too much but having them can be really helpful to pinpoint that O day.

cupcake Yay for the TWW!!! Have fun in Prague!


todmommy Ooh! I have the Fitbit Charge and I love it. I wish they had pretty colors when I bought mine. Back then, I only had black and navy for options so I went with black. Now they have pretty colors and I want one!! Can't justify a new one just for a pretty color though. Hope you like it!!

 

[BostonLover89]

Cupcake that's awesome!im so mad at myself for forgetting my themometer the last few days and of course I slept like rubbish last night waking up every hour so I didn't even bother with temping today because I knew it would be wrong.

Todmommy lol every month when I start getting my tell tale AF cramps my husband turns a blind eye as I take myself pity shopping. We have to have something exciting to take our minds off of it. Sorry about your temp drop

Yay, have fun with your new fitbit
I've been eyeing the chargeHR but i can't really get myself to go and get it because I feel like I'm not active and sporty enough to justify it haha

Sorry to hear that your temp dropped further i was so rooting for you. Why do you have to wait a whole 7 months to try again, sorry I forgot
