Will do. Can't wait to see your BFP!

I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you! I need a bump buddy!

BFN this morning and a temp drop. AF will be here within a few days I'm sure. Feeling ok at the moment. It's what I expected... Just too good to be true.

 

[runnergrl]

sorry happy you are NEXT!! you AND mama! !!

Elt- I see you are still charting... when will you stop?

 

[Hann12]

So sorry happy, really thought this could have been it

 

[elt1013]

Sorry Happy... really thought this was your month too.

I don't know what your bd schedule is like, but I can tell you that we bd less this cycle before my BFP than we usually do. I don't know if that had something to do with it or not, but we bd 4 days before o (I doubt that one was it) and the day before, so I guess trying to dtd everyday was too much.

I know you ladies will get your BFPs! If I did with being overweight, and having a short LP, you will too!

runnergrl- I'm not really still charting, but if I happen to be up at my usual temping time, I occasionally take my temp out of curiousity. And I took a couple more tests just to make sure there was progression. I thought about taking my chart down, but I left it up because sometimes other people want to see what your BFP chart looks like to compare.

 

[Hann12]

Elt I think you have a point with the DTD less frequently before. On my bfp month we did it 2 days before and day before and that's it around ovulation. I think sometimes doing it a lot can reduce the quality of sperm.
I was the same with testing - as we have the conception indicator tests I wasn't happy until
I had a 1-2 weeks, 2-3 and 3+!

 

[elt1013]

I agree about the sperm quality thing too!

I have progression on all the tests, but the internet cheapies take forever to get darker!

 

[MamaMac123]

Happy - honestly could see that line, so sorry Hun. I know it's a long shot but you haven't dropped below cover line yet so you never know. We'll get there

 

[HappyCpl]

Thank you ladies for all of your support. You're right Mama, it's not over yet. But it sure feels that way.

Elt we tend to BD a lot... Haha. ESP right after AF b/c DH and I both have a very high sex drive. So after being cut off for a week... You could only imagine... Our new dr actually told us at our last visit that until after OV we should try to only BD every other day. Since DH already has lower than average counts, he said we could be depleting them more. So next cycle we are gonna chill on the BD everyday. Lol

 

[runnergrl]

wow. I cant even imagine BD every day. Guess we have just never been that kind of a couple-lol! I would love to BD more, but no way could I muster up the energy for that often. We are lucky if we get in a few times a month...no joke!!

 

[MamaMac123]

Lol oh Runner is go nuts! But them I'm not chasing a little guy around 24/7 like you

We're def not every day folks but at least 2-4 times a week a few times a month would torture me!

 

[marieb]

So sorry Happy! I know when we got our BFP we only DTD every 2-3 days and then every day I got a +OPK. Worth a try!

 

[HappyCpl]

Right after AF for a out the first 18 days we usually BD at least 15 times. No kidding. Then after that we start to taper off. I can tell a huge difference in the amount of swimmers by them too. So it may be a good idea for us to hold off until around O time this time. ESP since we'll be using Clomid. I'm hoping I will have a regular cycle this next time as it seems this cycle was prerty reg. comparatively speaking...

 

[MamaMac123]

Just remember to bd every few days to keep the supply fresh like Marie said, every 3 days or so leading up to ov. I'm hoping the clomid will do the trick for you this cycle!!!! Fx!!!

 

[Hann12]

Any sign of the baby yet Marie? Thinking of you!

 

[marieb]

Not really
I have an ultrasound appointment and a midwife appointment tomorrow so we'll see after that.

 

[runnergrl]

Will they induce after a certain amount of time?

 

[marieb]

Well I can't have a homebirth after 42 weeks so after that it's up to me to decide whether I want to consent to a medical induction or just wait for things to happen themselves. Really don't want to get induced so hoping baby decides to make its appearance sooner than later!
