Pretty sure I am at CD1 and need a buddy :(

[Stake]

p.s. my CM changed to creamy looks like i missed my temp dip afterall haha woops

 

[Ali33]

Definitely too early. I think implantation is generally 4-10dpo.
When are we testing??

 

[Ali33]

Isn't that a temp dip on CD15?

 

[Stake]

yeah i changed the temp for the sake of fertility friend detecting that i ovulated haha. my husband was laughing so hard hes like "i dont think u can just fudge the numbers on something like that" ...oh well. and we can start temping on sept 12th if you want? and do every other day?

 

[Ali33]

Sounds good to me!!!!

 

[havestar]

So is it safe to say we'll all probably have ovulated by tomorrow for sure.. and then we can count off 12 days from there to do an hpt (10 for implantation, 2 for hcG to build up)? That would be the 17th. Or we could just wait till the 19th.. but I don't think I can do it. LOL

 

[Ali33]

Stacey said the 12th. We would be about 8dpo. I think that is early but I don't mind. I have never tested early so it might actually be fun for me lol..

I hope its right what they say about Geritol "a baby in every bottle" bc im 3/4 of the way done mine! =)

 

[Ali33]

What does it do???
My OPK is already kinda fading... Is that normal???

 

[Ali33]

Well I had a huge temp spike so pretty sure I did ovulate lol

 

[Stake]

yeah thats normal =) your LH surge can last long or only a few hours. mine is pretty short too. and Geritol Tonic they say "theres a baby in every bottle" its a high potency vitamin i guess its high in iron or something. ive read a lot of success stories about people with unexplained infertility using it and getting BFPs

im taking the liquid one but i heard it comes in a pill form too. the liquid has a pretty nasty taste i just hold my breath and drink something right after.

 

[Ali33]

I hope it works for you!
My cm already turned creamy. I guess I only had the cm and surge for 1 day. I hope that's normal..

 

[Stake]

yeah mine is the same way so im hoping thats normal too. i read somewhere before that after O you should no longer see any fertile CM (ew or watery) and it will either dry up or go creamy

 

[Ali33]

Oh ok then we should be good then..

 

[havestar]

Though I never got the +OPK, I wanted to see if either of you had like really bad ovulation pains? I had some pretty strong pains yesterday on my way home from picking up the kiddo, but not like I was expecting. I've heard that you can get really bad ones from the soy.

 

[Ali33]

I had worse ones yesterday than I ever had. I was crampy all day, and not just in my ovary area. Almost felt like AF..

 

[havestar]

Hmm I wonder if they were stronger because you took the soy later in your cycle. I took mine on the night of CD2 (but I counted it as CD3 b/c it was kinda late).

What about headaches on/around/after O? My head has been killing me since yesterday. The kind that are like behind your teeth/eyes. I never get headaches really and I don't want to take anything so I'm just suffering. LOL

EDIT - it totally sounds like I'm symptom spotting, but for O instead of pregnancy. LOL!

 

[Ali33]

I had headaches yesterday. Sucks doesn't it? Have a 2ww for O then a 2ww for pregnancy! You really should temp. That would let you know if you ovulated. Since my temp spiked I am 99% sure I did..

 

[havestar]

I might if I don't get a BFP this cycle. I couldn't start now, right.. cuz you'd have to have previous data to know whether or not you were elevated or whatever?
