Roll up, roll up! Statistical chance of at least one BFP! - *15th BFP Announced!*

[MrsFX]

Yipee. I hope it is because you started a journal!!

 

[Lisa2701]

I suspect the preseed, soft cup, opk's and every second day...no matter what, might have done the trick

 

[LilLeafyLea]

Congrats Lisa!! That's fantastic news!! I'm keeping it all crossed for a sticky bean for you. Our stats are starting to look up ladies xxx

Really want to drop what I'm doing this cycle and take up what StephieB, Zozarini and you have been trying this month!

 

[Bug222]

Congrats to you Lisa!!!!

 

[LilLeafyLea]

Andielina that is so sweet of your oh to do that! I'm sure you are more than worth the time he spent travelling back and forth! Those honeymoon phases of new relationships are great

Pola, that's lovely! He sounds like one in a million and such a romantic thing to do on your wedding! I've got funny images of your oh saying you look beautiful with a full on clown face!!

I'll try and dig up a pic of the daybed but it's basically a bench with a back that can be used as a sunlounger (i.e. you can put cushions/mattress on) and it has a roof/canopy to keep the sun off you. Not that we can afford to shun the annual two minutes of sun we get here in the UK! You're from Spain so you have the exact opposite issue! You're English is great btw

Well, he's a guy so most of the times he's a jerk but I always appreciate his good intentions!!!!!

 

[secrethopeful]

congrats ladies! I'm back in the tww again i think, but not had many opportunities to bd.

 

[HisGrace]

I love the idea of this thread. Can we post in this thread or will another one be started? From the looks of it, pre-seed might be something to look into. I've never even heard of it, but I'm off to google now to find out more.

 

[LilLeafyLea]

Hello ladies, hope we are all ok today! Secrethopeful sorry to hear this hasn't been your month. It's funny how we can get every ttc aid under our belts (i.e vits, meds, pre-seed, soft cups etc.) and miss out on the most vital ingredient! Dang it!

Hello Jehovahs, of course you can post here I'll just roll the month over...so if you girlies want to let me know dates for October, I'll add you. Pre-seed seems to be the winner, I agree. There's plenty of ladies that will be happy to tell you all you need to know about it on this forum. I'm trying to increase my CM with EPO at the moment so want to give that a good run first but best of luck to you!

[pola17]

Hey good to see you again!!! I'm still cramping, CM is not watery so I'm defenitely on my DPO's!!! My charting sucks as 3 days ago my temp raised, yesterday it dropped and today raised again! I think I'm doing something wrong!!!

 

[MrsFX]

Pola is the cramping unusual? I wonder if that and the temp shifts could all be a good sign of conception? Or do you think it could be too early?

Jehovasgrace: welcome this is a ovely thread full of really supportive TTCers.

I'm expecting AF on thursday. nervous, this cycle has flown by.

 

[pola17]

Lol, about the temp I don't know! I have no clue what it would me! Its usual for me to feel cramps a day or 2 before AF due date, and been having it nonstop! Its not painful, its not unconfortable but its there what a mystery!! I guess I will find out in a couple of weeks! Lol

 

[pola17]

I meant it would "mean" not me! for some reason I can't edit! Whooops!!

 

[HisGrace]

Yay! I didn't know if this was for one cycle only. I'll be testing on October 16th (if I can wait that long). I saw the softcups here and decided to do some more research. It sounds like a great idea so I went out and bought some at CVS. I saw that they also had pre-seed, but I didn't get it. I might get it later. The OPK was like $57 at CVS. That seemed a little pricey so I might just order some + the preseed on Amazon.

 

[LilLeafyLea]

Getting cramps at this point is definitely eyebrow raising stuff Pola! Hoping it's a good sign! Not sure about the temps...are you temping at the same time daily? I'm no expert on temping so maybe someone else could shed some light here.

I'm trying to chart this cycle but by the time I've realised I should have temped I'm usually long out of bed brushing my teeth or in the shower! I wish I was a kept woman and could devote my full attention to ttc! I have the thermometer, a pen and pad on my bedside table and stumble straight past them in a bleary-eyed trance...not good!

Jehovas $57 is a lot! Is that for the fertility monitor thingymajig or one OPK? If it's the monitor that's actually a great price as Clearblue Fertility Monitors are usually a lot more. If it's for the OPK's (even a batch of them) I'd run for the hills....or run to Amazon/Ebay and get some ICs! Let us know how you get on and if you do get the pre-seed, I'd love to hear how you found it

Mrs I can't believe you are due AF on Thursday! I'm sure you only had your AF a week ago! Wherever you are hiding that magic wand, get it out and spread the love! Talking of magic wands good luck on BDing tonight

Hoping everyone else is ok and your Monday wasn't too torturous!

 

[MrsFX]

Leaf do u have an iPhone? They have loads of apps including fertility friend or just bbt apps that u could record your temp. If u use that as an alarm it might help
Or else a whopping postit note on your bedside table or tie a piece of string on your toe and the other end to the thermometer. What can I say, I'm an ideas person!
Good luck. Your right the last 23 days have flown. I hope urs do too.

Pola Anything new?
Jehova good luck.

 

[LilLeafyLea]

Alas, I merely teeter at the edges of the iPhone megaworld peering in with my crumby BB, hehe! I use the alarm on my phone to wake up but I don't make that connection to temp too. Love the string idea though! Perhaps I'll attach it to my head board bar thing (technical term) so it'll jingle when I get up. If I attach it to my toe I'll get out of bed to go the loo, forget it's there and get it caught on something resulting in one severed big toe and 5 useless pairs of sandals!

Thanks hun, even though I'm on BnB all the time it does actually help time go by!

 

[pola17]

New? Well according to fertilityfriend I Oved on the 13th CD19! So its just a matter of waiting... So I should actually be on DPO6! So far mild cramps, bad mood, big appetite and want to sleep a lot! But those are the same symptoms I get pre AF!

How are ya, gals?

 

[Andielina]

Hey good to see you again!!! I'm still cramping, CM is not watery so I'm defenitely on my DPO's!!! My charting sucks as 3 days ago my temp raised, yesterday it dropped and today raised again! I think I'm doing something wrong!!!

Pola, I've been super confused with my temping too. Mine's been up and down the last few days... was hoping to have o'ed on Friday, b/c my temp shifted up Sat. but now it's back down. Today I noticed some ewcm, so I'm guessing it's today... looks like it's time to go seduce the hubby. I hope you get it figured out and it involves a big !!!

I'll be testing on October 2nd, seeing as I'm supposed to start the 1st. I'm usually very regular and predictable... we'll see! I hope everyone is doing well and thinking lots of thoughts!!!!!

The $57 was for a Clear Blue Easy OPK with 20 tests. I didn't think I needed 20 tests, but even if I do I'm not paying that much when I can get the same thing on Amazon for $35. I'm going to go back and get the pre-seed though because it was only like $14 or $15.
