Sticking Together Until We All Get BFP's!!!!

That's great Mary.... I'm not saying you can't just ignore/notice them coz that's impossible. My cramping continued post O and i remember when someone asked me here what my symptoms so far i told them i felt cramps that is so strong that i usually feel before or on :af: FX the same thing is happenning to you. When i felt that kind of cramps though i was worried sick that maybe it's the cysts our doc mentioned during my july cycle.... Of course, i was hopeful but tried not to relate them to pregnancy before we took hpt...

This is the exact same concern I have about the cramps and u described it just like me and its turned out to be a good thing! :) I have my u/s to rule that out tomorrow! Omg this excites me! FX for a BFP!!
 
Mary I am just moving right along. I have no idea if I ovulated or not and I have no clue if there was even any soerm up there waiting for the egg if I did. Hubby was unable to finish on Monday night and wound up doing his thing in a cup for me to inject up there on Wednesday morning. I don't known if I did that right though so who knows.
 
If I put in a few more mock temps at my normal post o range, it does say that I ovulated on Tuesday.
 
Good luck Jess and Mary! AF is finally gone. Got several days before O but I'm loading up on water, vitamins and tea and getting in a lot of bd practice!

I bet you did it just fine! :) I hate when dh has that issue at O time! It hardly ever happens but when it has, i was def let down. I'm sorry :-\. As for the self insemination, as long as u pushed it in your vagina, at least some of the sperm def went to the right place! Its very hard to mess that up and u used the sperm immediately so it was nice and fresh! If you do that again in the future, lay down for about 20-30mins after with your butt up. Docs have women do it after IUI as well and it helps to guide the sperm to your cervix and gives it more time to travel down the right path before we stand up and a bunch pores out, u know? Regardless, at least some of the soldiers made it up there to do their job, I'm sure! I read ur post the other day about you feeling very moist after so i figured id throw the "butt on a pillow" idea out there. I think you have good odds and it does look like u O'ed. Fx!!! I really hope we both get our bfps this cycle with our very healthy forever babies nice and snug in our wombs :) FX! :dust:

I am 99% sure u O'ed 2 days ago. It def looks like a fallback rise today. We'll know tomorrow but I definitely think you already Oed. Usually the second say of peak fertility is O day and ur chart, positive opk and your second peak day all happened Tues. Even though dh didn't finish Monday night, some sperm could have still gotten up there. Did u BD at all on Sunday or Saturday? Ill have to peak at ur chart again..

EDIT-checked ur chart and I see u bd'ed Tues a.m and Sunday night so I def think ull be good! Yay! Don't count yourself out! This is your month! :)

Good luck hun! Lots of water will def boost ur fertility! Decaf green tea is GREAT for EWCM. I used to drink it up until O and then I'd stop when I was fairly certain I had oed. Drinking it after O isn't safe while ttc, from what I read. Just incase you didn't already know :). I hope you get a nice and sticky bfp this cycle! Tons of dust your way!!

Thanks! Didn't know that. My plan is Pre-O: EPO, Green tea, Raspberry tea, water, b-complex and prenatals. Then Post-O: Raspberry tea (for lining), prenatals, b-complex and progesterone. Seems like a lot, but it's really not too bad! And it's seemed to be a winning recipe for us the past few cycles. DH takes Fertilaid for Men - seems to help his stamina and uhhh "amount of spermies." He's not the problem persay but I think he likes to know he's doing something too.

Sending that baby dust right back at ya!
 
Hello ladies,

I am hopping on to give another update. All 7 are still thriving. 4 @4cells, 1 @6cells, 1 @7cells and 1 @8cells. Transfer will be Sunday (5day) I am so thankful to God for his blessings. Thank you Jesus!!! :happydance::dance::yipee::headspin::wohoo:
 
Ladies, my body is playing serious tricks on my mind. I am trying to chillax and keep reminding myself I'm only 4DPO and therefore it's not even possible implantation occurred, so there's no chance I could have symptoms indicating I'll get a BFP, but humor me as I tell you how mean my body is being.
- Lots of creamy white odorless CM - abnormal for me
- Boobs hurt and are swollen
- Lots of lower back pain and some cramping
- Waves of nausea coupled with cravings for strong flavors like vinegar, sugar, sour, etc.
- Fatigue. Have been going to bed much earlier.

OK, done. I need to STOP and just let it all be. How are you all doing?

implantation can actually happen as early as 3dpo :). They have found this in more recent research. Alot of people believe it can't happen before 6dpo but I had a bfp at 7dpo so I know I implanted earlier and ive seen women who were even being monitored by blood work and u/s for O and got VERY faint bfps at 6dpo so anything is possible ttc! And google "hHcg"...its a pregnancy hormone produced when sperm meet egg, before implantation, and this can cause very early symptoms so FX u have a BFP on the way! I know its frustrating having all these symptoms every TWW. I always seem to have new "symptoms" but anything out of the norm FOR YOU is always a potential sign :). FX for u! I just wanted to share that implantation has been proven to happen MOST LIKELY between 3-10dpo...sometimes 6-14dpo...it depends on the woman tho. Most healthcare providers will tell you its not possible still but ive learned many docs (in NH anyway) don't seem very up to date in the fertility field and I feel like I know much more than most of them fertility wise. Thats sad. Lol. Anyway, Good luck!!!

Also, I'm 5dpo and ive been having every symptom u mentioned above since 2dpo. I actually cried from lower back & left side pain the eve of 2dpo and since then its not as strong but the cramping hasn't fully left, which is very weird for me. Its actually been better the last hr or so so I'm hoping the pressure eases up. FX these are great signs for us!
 
Starryjune, ur chart looks good so far btw :). FX it keeps rising for that beautiful bfp!

FX so tight. My boobs are feeling really weird... clearly my hormones are cooperating with my hopes better this time around, so I'm hopeful I will get a BFP in the next few months. This month would just be so special for lots of reasons.
 
Sorry ladies, my iPad is being stupid. I'll update when I get home.

I like the look of your chart june. FX it continues til your :bfp: :happydance::dance:

Like what Mary said, implantation can happen earlier than norm so you could have those PG symptoms early on. FX so tight.... :bfp:s coming to all the ladies here :happydance::wohoo::dust:
 
Hi all . . . . . . . First and foremost congrats on those :bfp: and to those that have explained their symptoms during the TWW sound super promising (a lot of the same ones that I had) . . . . . keeping my FX'd for you until you get your :bfp: . . . . For all you ladies for that matter . . . . . UPDATE: I got an unexpected BFP on CD 32 (which is a really long cycle for me BTW) and according to FF I was due for AF on CD 33 . . . . . . Usually stay between 26 and 28 days, other than August and September where I had mid cycle spotting . . . . . Which I think was due to BV which I was treated for at the End of August beginning of September . . . . . Not too sure how many DPO I was when I tested due to EWCM and Positive OPK again on CD 24 (after FF determined Ovulation on CD 18) . . . . . I'm thinking that I may have ovulated late due to having a terrible case of Bronchitis (prescribed Amoxicillin, Steroids and an Inhaler) . . . . . Not a fun time . . . . . still wasn't feeling quite up to the whole BD'ing thing but thought I should give it a shot when I started feeling a bit better . . . . . I did notice some severe pain on the left side on CD 24 (October 19th) which just about had me in tears . . . . (Possibly O pain????) . . . . . . On Sunday (October 25) CD 31, I experienced terrible moodiness, irrational moodiness, crying over the littlest things, felt irritated to the bone . . . horrible motion sickness while riding in the car and food aversions (I thought for a second, well this is weird but brushed it off and thought maybe round two of the Bronchitis is sneaking up on me) . . . Woke up on Monday feeling weird, a bit nauseas, Sore BB's. . . . . . went to local pharmacy and picked up a FRER and digital (more due to being a POAS addict) . . . . . . dipped the FRER and digital at the same time, got the faintest line on the FRER but Negative digital . . . . AF didn't show on CD 32 as expected . . . . took another FRER that day and the line was Definitely there . . . . . took a digital in the evening and it was Positive . . . . Confirmed on Wednesday October 29th by Blood Test with Beta of 60 @ an emergency room visit due to horrible UTI symptoms (urine was super diluted to chugging water before going and my symptoms were minimized) . . . . . Based on Ovulation on 10/19, I would have been 10 dpo . . . . . have had a heck of a time getting into see a doctor due to Insurance (which Thank Goodness is all straight now) . . . . . . Have my first OB visit on November 10th, 2014 . . . . . Recap of Symptoms: Tender BB's, food aversions, overly emotional, dry mouth, frequent frequent urination, heightened sense of smell, pelvic discomfort at the hip bone, increased urge to :sex: . . . . . WHAT I DID DO DIFFERENT THIS MONTH: Used OPK's, took Pre Natal Vitamins, Took Vitamin B6, Iron, Milk Thistle, Used a Probiotic for PH balance . . . . . Used Pre-Seed . . . . I tried my best at Temping (which I did notice an increase in Temp after Possible O on CD 18 but who knows because then again I was sick) . . . . I am so sorry for the book . . . . I have not been on here for a while and wanted to catch up!!!!!
 
TTCHOPES - congrats on your :BFP: :happydance: Thanks for the info on your winning system; I'm sure it will help those of us who are still TTC
