[comet1234]

Expectingtc: in the next three days hopefully! Oo hope you get your wish, October November and December will be such a wonderful time.

Mrslsc: that's great!!

Ashntony: welcome!

 

[ExpectingTC]

Hope everyone is doing well! I've been in the CHAOS of Atlanta this week. Lots of bd'ing. I'm not complaining.

 

[comet1234]

Hello, oo lots of bding! me too haha!

Still no ovulation yet though by the looks of my chart.

 

[ExpectingTC]

My cervix is soft, high, open and my OPK was positive yesterday and this morning! So, I'm ovulating today or tomorrow. Woo hoo! DH and I will get in one more round of BD'ing tonight and then into our TWW. Fingers Crossed, ladies!

 

[comet1234]

Ah wishing you lots of luck!! X

CD 4 today.... AF is starting to slow down! Since I don`t know exactly when I ovulate I plan on taking an OPK evryday starting the 9th. I plan on using Preseed everyday we bd. thanks to smoking my cm has been completely thrown out of whack... now have any of you ladies used soft cups?

 

[comet1234]

Ashntony: I use soft cups and find it really helps to keep it all inside me. We also use it when bding every other day gets tiring ( due to my really long cycles). I put some fertility gel inside the cup, around the edges and inside me too. X

 

[ExpectingTC]

I have not tried using soft cups, but if we aren't successful this time around, I will probably move onto that.

I just started my TWW! FX!

 

[comet1234]

I hope this is it for you!

unfortunately i think i'm having an annovulatory cycle x

 

[ExpectingTC]

Comet - what makes you think that?

 

[comet1234]

i usually ovulate 16- 21 even with my last cycle being 160 days. i have pcos which causes it aswell. But my opks keep getting dark then white then darkish then back to normal. My cm went egg white/ watery now has been creamy for the past few days x

 

[ExpectingTC]

"But my opks keep getting dark then white then darkish then back to normal." How so? Like they're almost + but don't get quite there? Sorry, I'm still clearly pretty new to this.

 

[comet1234]

Yeah sorry I'm not explaining properly. They get to a near positive, then go back to clearly negative (nearly white). I have used two different brands of opks so it can't be a dodgy batch. My temperatures are quite flat too. X

 

[ExpectingTC]

Interesting. I havent started temping yet. I figure if this time isn't a success I will start temping and get serious about it.

Still have my FX for you! You never know!

Hello ladies! Would you mind if I joined in the thread? We've been TCC for 5 months now. I should be about to O any day now and I'm a bit overweight. Used to be a size 9 now I'm a 16/18. I've been trying to lose weight and get back to being a smaller size. I'm perfectly healthy other than my weight. I'm on CD16 today. dust to everyone!

 

[ashntony]

CD11 today... Hoping I ovulate in the next week and a half... So far my OPKs have started to get dark then turned light again.... Hopefully it happens soon though! I would prefer for it to happen on my four day weekend coming up! Then work won`t be in the way of bding!

 

[comet1234]

Charlie: welcome! I used to be small to, but slowly I'm getting myself back to my healthy ways. Do you have normal length cycles? X

Ashntony: really hope ovulation hits the long weekend!

As for me: I have my fertility specialist appointment on the 18th

 

[CrazyCharlie2]

Comet. They used to be normal I think my body has just been adjusting since stopping bcp in oct. But I have been 30-41 days for the past cycles. I just started using the clear blue fertility monitor this cycle. So far it's already proving to be worth the money spent.

 

[comet1234]

That's good that they are always within a certain limit. Yeah I have heard great things about it, I wanted one but with pcos it can give me false positives so wouldn't be worth the money x

 

[ashntony]

Sooooo much waiting.... CD12 today... No positive OPK`s yet. All of them are pretty much completely white. So hopefully Having all of my fingers and toes crossed does me some good!
