Well today is 8 DPO and my temp is still rising. A friend just told me that a rising temp at 8 DPO isn't a sign. It has be a high temp at 12 DPO in order to be a sign. But my LP is only 11 days instead of 14 so that means it should go down at 10 DPO if AF is coming right?

I'm not sure hun... I would say its a good sign for you though--I mean everyone is different.. If you LP is less than average but more than what would cause concern; and its rising and staying up unlike past cycles--I would say your body is making a home for a lil fertilized egg... Maybe someone can clarify the whole temp thing to me better--but that's my opinion hun, but hey--I'm optimistic like that for others... I want you to get your !

Hi everyone!

Yes, Nicole, I would think if your LP is only 11 days then your temp. would probably start to drop by 10DPO. My LP is usually 12 days and the temp. usually starts dropping a day before. Hopefully yours will stay up...FX'd for you

Steph, that's great that you're having so many symptomsI hope you have a very sticky little bean in there And I agree with you...I too, have thought about (and even mentioned) a turkey baster before. DH objects saying it "wouldn't be him getting me pregnant". And he wouldn't feel like he had a part in it, and a baby should be conceived making love if at all possible. I don't see anything wrong with it because it's not like the turkey baster is gonna come around after the baby is born saying, "hey, I'm here to see my baby" He'd still be just as much a part of it and we could still make love to do it, so long as he pulled out in timeOh well, I guess men are just weird. I feel like if I could use the turkey baster I could kind of maneuver it in better and increase my chances a little bit.

Jenn, I'm sure AF will return soon for you. Are you breast or bottle feeding? I know with my daughter I was breastfeeding and AF didn't show until I stopped feeding her. I think after my sons were born it was around 8 or 10 weeks later. Maybe that lower pain you were feeling was ovulation?

Andi, I'm sorry you won't be getting the girls, but you have to do what right and best for you so you have no regrets. And I'm sure if you or your husband get fixed then you might have some regrets later on since you still want your own baby so badly. Longing for your own baby doesn't go away easily no matter how many children you already have to love.

Hope everyone has a great day...hugs to you all.

 

[armymama2012]

So I still have tough? And how far should it drop to be a bad sign? Right now my temp is .7 above the coverline.

 

[AndreaFlorida]

Normally AF doesn't come until it drops below the cover check out my charts an you will see what I mean AF shouldn't come this early though, so as long as no AF your still in the running everyones temps are diff.!

.7 above cover is GREAT sign!!

 

[calebsmom06]

Yea Steph!!! That put a smile on my face! So a May baby!!
Beth-I am bottle feeding. I am 8 weeks past now so I guess ill give it another 2 weeks to see. Lord help me if we boo booed!
Nicole!!! I hope this is it for you! Yea!
Andi andi be careful hun!!!!!

 

[waiting2012]

Nicole-.7 is GREAT!! Isn't that almost a whole degree higher? I mean that sounds fabulous...RISE TEMPS RISE!!! I sence a coming soon for you!!!

Jenn--I know you don't want to end up pregnant again so soon, but I'm a little hopeful for you..--who knows that might be the girl you've been waiting for.. Look at this way--although that puts Cameron and possible OOPS baby about a year apart--I know you could handle it!

Beth--any word yet hun? I know you've been waiting for something to happen... I sure hope it happens soon for you hun! Are the doctors still wanting to wait before they see ya'..That absolutely STINKS! And I love the bit about the turkey baster showing up wanting to see it's kid... I can picture it...Knocking on your door, going "COME ON, ITS MY KID TOO".....

Yes the sx are steadily coming and increasing..Lots of pressure and tugging from my uterus up past my belly button, and my boobs for a bit this afternoon were hurting and on fire..OUCH. Calling the doctor tomorrow and hopefully go in Monday for urine and blood work.. I would like to finally give the hubby something good to look forward to!

 

[armymama2012]

Ok, Well now my cervix is high and closed plus my CM seems to have increased.

 

[waiting2012]

Nicole-my cervix never did go low or up & down like it usually does after O.. And I only had one day where my cm was dry/sticky-its been pretty much abundant, wet/creamy with a slight yellowish tint to it! I bet your going to be joining me on the May 2013 forum (which if you click on my sig-not the gaga ticker) will take you right to that forum... Can't wait hun!

AFM... Told Jason last night, and he grinned because my acne tipped him off already... Lol 4 wks today!

 

[bnporter81]

Jenn, that was pretty much what happened to meThat's why our boys are only 1 year and 6 days apart, lol I was upset when it happened, but now I'm so glad that it did because they are so close. It's hard to know when ovulation will occur after giving birth...that's what makes it so tricky.

Steph, yes, I'm still waiting. The said they would call if they got an opening through cancellation or anything, but so far nothing. I'm hoping maybe I did O. last week and maybe I'll at least get an AF soon. If not, then I bought some female toner tea that I heard can help. Guess I'll give that a try if no AF in about a week.

 

[waiting2012]

Just don't take the tea until you know whether or not there is a bean! Have you tested at all other than opks? I know you had before and I know hpts get expensive, but what-if hun... I just think there might be something going on and you are just having an easy time of it.. I hope you don't mind my optimisim, but I have looked at your chart before.. Its all over the place but I think it still looks good..
Love ya hun!

 

[armymama2012]

Well temp jumped up by .4 this morning so I gave in and tested. Bfn! Testing again on Sunday. Also I used a target brand test but I do not trust them!

 

[waiting2012]

Oh hun, Its ok.. Temps sound good- sx sound good, I'm not a big fan generic tests... Some $ ones are really good and I've been impressed with FRE and Answer brand.. You did use FMU? I know some ladies don't get good results with FMU but SMU... You are 9 dpo today right? I know mine wad early but the majority leans towards bfp at 11-13 dpo... So your not out yet sweetie!

 

[AndreaFlorida]

Still way early to test so I still have FAITH your gonna get a PRAYING!!

 

[armymama2012]

Argh...none of the food in my house sounds, smells or looks good...and we cant afford to go out to eat.

 

[waiting2012]

Yep, that sounds normal... LOL... Nicole--I think your bfp is coming hun!!! I can't wait to see it!!!

 

[armymama2012]

Maybe I should just BD all the way through July & August every year lol. the reason I say this is because both of my previous successful pregnancies were conceived in late July-mid August. LOL I love my May babies!

 

[AndreaFlorida]

My birthday is May 1

 

[waiting2012]

Hope ya'll are doing good today
I was just using my phone to catch up a bit

Had an Emmaus team meeting today, and it was just what I was needing..
Any new news ladies????

 

[bnporter81]

Nothing new here, really. We celebrated my daughter's birthday yesterday...I had to deal with my ex's current wife (I told you guys several months ago how she was around my husband) So I was kind of glad when they left. But today we get to go visit my sister and celebrate her birthday. At least I won't have to deal with any of that drama there.

Hope you all have a great Sunday
