Soy Cycle Buddies 2019 <3 1BFP on second soy cycle 2 BFPs Non-soy cycle

[Tesh23]

Thanks Anna

How many dpo were these tests? It’s super super faint. I’m just thinking by 13dpo it would show a proper line. I’m going to be realistic though, as I said at the beginning of this cycle if it happens it happens.

What sensitivity are those cheapies? The one I used is 20miu

 

[Tesh23]

I know we all hate seeing AF but thank god we have it to end the crazy speculation! Imagine if we didn’t and we just began a new cycle! I think waiting tomorrow sounds like a plan and then test on weds if she doesn’t show!

I know can’t believe I’ll be 4dpo although I’m not 100% convinced still! I am hoping tomorrow’s temp makes me feel more certain. I’m really planning to hold out until the 8th when AF is due. I have felt much better this month without all the crazy.

Absolutely! If AF arrives tomorrow it’s just into the next cycle, simple. The bfp will come when it’s time. Next cycle I’m going to do better and really not do one test until AF is a proper day late. I didn’t take into account having another 13 day lp so it makes sense now

 

[Anababe]

Yeah I totally agree it’s best to just wait and see, you have done so well so far with testing. It was yesterday so I was 12dpo.

Hopefully she will stay away tomorrow too!

 

[swedengirl]

Ok totally believe I’ve oved now. CP and CM are in full post ov position now! Wooo to the TWW!!

Really hope AF stays away Tesh!

 

[Tesh23]

Thanks so much you two

I will update in the morning.

 

[Anababe]

Yay Sweden. Least it won’t seem as long a wait now if your 3dpo already

 

[Tesh23]

I’m out ladies onto next cycle. Huge temp drop this morning so AF will arrive today.

Boobs are still sore which is odd but I’ve had new symptoms every one of these four months so far.

Yay for confirmed O Sweden! I really hope this is your month. I feel the second soy cycles are always successful so everything crossed for you!

I should ovulate next on 12 May which is around Mothers Day here. Have a stressful month ahead of exams and 3 birthday parties so will be lucky if I manage to plan in bd!

 

[swedengirl]

Ahhh sorry Tesh! But so glad you didn’t have a tortuous month with all the tests. You should treat yourself to something with all the money you saved! Fx you have a lucky mother’s day ovulation next cycle. Are you planning on trying anything or another calm cycle?

Yes and my temp went up this morning so definitely confident I’ve ovd. I’m still a little skeptical it was Friday based on how I normally feel in my body after I’ve ovd but will keep in mind if my AF is late and tests negative!

 

[Tesh23]

Thanks Sweden

I’m not sure yet if I will try anything new. I’ve been reading up on Tribulus, and apparently it’s supposed to increase your sex drive/hormones. May think about trying that out just to make bd more fun.

I think I want to concentrate on making bd more stimulating and fun and relax with the rest of it and just let it happen. I will still chart as it’s such a habit now. But no opks and tests again.

This month was much better without the testing and less disappointing without the whole am I aren’t I. Going forward I want all my cycles to be relaxed like this and I will only test from one day late.

 

[Tesh23]

AF has finally made her appearance

On to next cycle. Gosh I feel so nauseous today which is the first ever for me on cd1.

 

[swedengirl]

Oh sorry Tesh! FX for a Mother’s Day conception!!

Making bd more fun sounds like an excellent plan! It can get a bit robotic when TTC! I swear you have increased chances of you enjoy it!

 

[swedengirl]

Ok so I know I shouldn’t do this but today I’ve felt pregnant. No symptoms or anything, but I just “feel pregnant”. Like I’ve wanted to hold my stomach for some reason. Added to that my DD has wanted to snuggle on my stomach all day and this is a kid who hates cuddles. She also randomly said baby and pointed to my stomach. Totally insane as she’s never seen a pregnant person. She is also totally obsessed with her doll who we call baby so it could totally just be that and coincidental. But just a weird day.

 

[Anababe]

Aww how you feeling today Sweden?

 

[swedengirl]

Still no symptom symptoms but just feel it might be the month for some reason. I know it’s dangerous to do as totally setting myself up for disappointment. But not getting ahead of myself and excited but just feel positive and “feel” pregnant.

 

[Tesh23]

Aw Sweden I really really hope u are! Sencond soy cycles have a really good success rate so keeping everything crossed for you.

Your temps are looking superb! How are u feeling today? Do not test! Even the urge is strong just resist I know u can do it!

Afm cd4 and I’ve had one of the worst cramps this period after years! Hoping the soy didn’t reset my cycle bleh. After having my ds I never got pms symptoms or cramps during my period. Hoping I didn’t try and fix something that wasn’t broken!

Going to have another stress free of it happens it happens cycle. No meds nada. No opks. Only temping.

 

[swedengirl]

I know my temp went up again! I did wake with a slight sore throat, although gone now so it could be that.

I’m super hungry and nauseated today. Hoping it’s a good sign.

I’m actually not tempted to test yet! I think as the TWW has been shorter for me due to not confirming O it helps. I am due AF weds, but can normally tell the day before from CP and spotting if AF is coming. I might allow myself to test on Tuesday if the signs don’t show as found another early test. I’m saving the FRER for AF day though. I’ll see how I feel though, normally my test urge comes around 8dpo and then around 10dpo I’m disheartened and don’t want to test. So maybe I’ll just if I make it to 10dpo I won’t test unless AF is late!!

A relaxed month again is a great idea Tesh. I’ll be doing the same if AF shows. I know we won’t be taking soy but hope we can continue on this thread!

 

[TayBabes92]

Hi, I did my first time trying soy this cycle and looks like I ovulated today CD19. Last cycle it was CD25 so I’m super happy it hopefully has happened sooner. I have been reading through the entire thread about your soy experiences and following your journey for a couple weeks now xx

 

[Anababe]

Glad your not tempted to test yet Sweden. It great about having a feeling your pregnant that’s actually a really good sign. I always just get that feeling. This month I definitely did but had no symptoms like usual so I still felt out. I guess for me no symptoms was the actual symptom lol not long to wait now I’m super excited for you!

Tesh how are you doing?

Taybabes - Welcome! That’s great about Ov’ing earlier than usual, funny how it works different for everyone, I had very early ovulation and needed to delay it til a bit later to get a more mature egg which happened this time for me. Got my BFP on my second soy cycle after 7 months TTC. Good luck, hope you have a nice quick tww!

 

[swedengirl]

Welcome Tay! I also ovulated CD19! I’m normally around then but can go up to CD25, but earliest had been CD16. Fx for a soy baby!

I’m starting to want to test as I’m having symptoms now. I’m crampy, gassy, sore boobs , tired, and feel I have increased sensitivity to smell. I walked into the kitchen this morning like what on Earth is that smell, after sniffing around it turned out it was the dishwasher tablets which are the same we have used for years. I’m really starting to think I might be pregnant. Although I know I’m probably setting myself up for a huge fall but I am having strong symptoms this month which is abnormal.

I really want to wait until Tuesday to test but have a feeling I might crack tomorrow. I’ll be 10dpo then so not too bad but ideally want to wait as can’t deal with any of the faint line drama!

 

[Tesh23]

Sweden well done for holding out on testing! Doesn’t it feel good to avoid the temptation? How are you feeling today?

Welcome Taybabes! So glad soy pushed your ovulation forward. I used to have ovulation on around cd15-cd17 but soy permanently pushed my ovulation forward to cd12-cd14 even without taking it. I’m not doing a soy cycle this month just going al natural to see what happens on my own. I did do 4 soy cycles from Jan-April so this will be my fifth month trying. It took me about 17 cycles to conceive my ds! So not holding out hope that it will happen sooner this time so I may as well take a laid back approach.

I’m doing well Ana how are you? How are your symptoms? I had s super painful crampy period this cycle which is quite unusual for me and I’ve bled for a day longer than usual too. May increased protesterone from last cycle increased the lining? I’m feeling pretty good otherwise. Cd6 here and I’ll be entering my fertile week soon as I will ovulate on mother’s day according to ff lol which is next Sunday over here
