Hi everyone just wanted to give an update from my DR. apt.It was confirmed that I did OV this cycle with clomid!! Yaaay I was sooooo nervous it wasn't working. But I am soo glad for theses results, my Dr. is keeping me on both meds until I get my :BFP: Have a great weekend everyone
I had to explain I was just excited because I was ovulating. Although I can see how he would be mistaken since I was jumping up and down with a grin on my face and the stick in my hand.
I got my very first positive opk this morning!!! I'm so excited!!
I showed OH...I think he thought I was pregnant
The weird thing is that my temps don't really match up. I had a temp dip today actually...maybe it will start rising from here.
But I did notice increased CM last night and this morning plus my BBs started hurting. I guess that's a symptom of OV for me now.
I hope everyone else is doing well!! Fx-ed!
and we have been ttc for #8 cycles now 
for the past 6months i have tracked my cycles which were 33 days long....but last cycle - i had a 46DC (12days late) and all of a sudden AF arrived - i was shattered!
AF is such a mean biatch!
looking forward to that...
my name is Esther, and I am from sunny South Africa(although freezing cold now - since its winter)
I am engaged to my high school sweet heart(Hendry) he is 26 and I am 25
and oh i am seeing my docter on the 9th of June(saturday)
FX'd we all get our deserved BFP's soon
). We have been TTC for over a year. OH's swimmers have proved successful in the past (all of his previous kids were not planned and were actually prevented with birth control but lo and behold he had 4 kids). I have had my hormones checked and had a couple of different ultrasounds and so far no signs of PCOS, endo, or anything. We are now using preseed and I am taking prenatals, royal jelly, honey & cinnamon, cut out caffeine, and OH is taking vitamins (multi, fish oil, D3, and a few others). I just started OPKs and checking CM last month and started temping this month. I am CD15 today.my name is Esther, and I am from sunny South Africa(although freezing cold now - since its winter)

It's never too late to join (at least in my opinion)!
Welcome!
I don't know if you've read the previous posts or not but just in case.
I am 24 and OH is 33. I am trying for #1, OH for #5 (I know!
I agree AF is very cruel! I am hoping some of us start getting BFPs so we can rub it in AF's face!
Welcome to serious TTC...it's funny that I would be someone that would start a group called serious TTC considering I am rarely "serious", I have a huge sense of humor.
Where are you at in your cycle now?
Nice to meet you Bella
I am on day 20 today- dnt know how long my cycle will be this month...
how's temping for the first month?I've bought the BBT and OPKs aswell,but since my fiance is out of town for this month i will start using them next cycle
yes please we need some BFP's in ths thread
. Especially right now since I got positive opk yesterday. 
I thought it was the cutest thing ever. I'm so happy that our sex life hasn't suffered because of TTC...I always thought the pressure would be too much but nope. He also said "shouldn't we do it more than once just in case?"
Makes me wonder what my reaction will be to a BFP!
I'll probably have a heart attack!
How are things going with you? Any positive yet?
I think my positive might have been false...I tested again at 6pm and again this morning at 6am and both BFN. Plus I haven't had a big temp rise (my temps were already kind of high before my +).
Why does this have to be so confusing!
I haven't got my +OPK yet, will test it again this afternoon. it might be neg. since i havent seen any EWCM, still creamy. My last cycle was 39 days, possibly ovulated on CD24. Last cycle was my first bbt charting, i have 15 days LP. As i have irregular cycle, i woudnt know how long this cycle will be. a bit scared of missing the O day. Is ur temp rising today??
Esther, Welcome
. It's so interesting!. So anyways, I retemped and it was 97.7. I was confused so I temped again and it was 97.9. I didn't get out of bed or anything. So I'm not sure which temp to record. If I record the middle or last temp then it would be above my coverline but if I used the first temp it would be below. I don't want to use the higher temps just because I WANT to confirm OV...I want it to be right. What would you do? I did an average for the three temps and it is 97.7. I did an average for the first two and it is 97.64. I decided to use the second average of 97.6 for now.
. OH is in the construction industry and I take care of the home (I like to call myself a SAHF-stay at home farmer). I love animals and also love being sustainable in any way possible. Sometimes my love for animals conflicts with farming though. OH is a meat eater and recently got some meat chickens and started "harvesting". It is very hard for me to deal with. But it's a fact of life and I'm glad we can give them good happy lives beforehand at least. We also have pigs but we aren't using them for meat (I couldn't handle that). We will be breeding them though and selling the piglets which will make us some money. We also have egg laying hens and get about a dozen eggs a day. We give them to family, sell some, and have enough for us to eat as many as we like! I also have a rescue dog who is a mutt too(lab x german sheppard x rottie?). I also have a cat, rabbits, and large coy fish in a pond we made. Plus we have about 40 different beginner fruit/veggie crops growing and many many flower gardens. OH loves flowers. I know, kind of weird for a guy...he won't admit it in front of his guy friends but when we go to the farm and garden he begs me to buy more flowers.

Esther, Welcome
My chart is in my signature if you want to stalk it. I know I've been major stalking other people's charts
Anyways.
I took my temp this morning at 5:30 as usual and it was 97.58. But I realized since I was half asleep that I didn't think the thermometer was all of the way in my mouth because I had crazy dry mouth. So I decided to re-temp. Yesterday morning I did two temps because I wasn't sure then and they both came out exactly the same
FX-ed you get your + soon!
