ttc #3 buddies wanted

[mouse_chicky]

Yay for those ovulating or getting ready to!

Glad your endless cycle finally ended xamour!

Tasha, spotting is always a little scary, but it sounds like things are going well!

 

[mrscletus]

Getting to the exciting part of the cycle- AF is gone and let the bd'ing commence!!

DH loves this part- even if I will probably be pretty demanding this month.

 

[jessicasmum]

Congratulations Piano girl!! That's so exciting!!

Got my positive OPK yesterday!! I thought Saturdays was but it was iffy (plus I looked at it after time limit) But yesterdays popped up blazing after 3 minutes. We've BD'd Saturday and yesterday so we'll do it today and tomorrow. And knowing me I'll probably test on the 15th just because I know I can't help myself and I'll be lucky if I can hold out that long!

Yay for positive opk I also got a positive Sunday morning so looks like we are on the same wait, think I will wait until 20th though to pregnancy test. Fx for us both

I'm hoping to make it until the 18th but I know me and the lack of self control so I'll give myself a couple days earlier.

Because of my crazy cycles in the past I'm always reluctant to test before I'm late, also in the back of my head it puts me off testing too soon and wasting money with test because crazyly I didn't get a positive test with my 1st daughter until I was 7 weeks gone

I never used to be this crazy tester. I too hated wasting the money (still do) but for some reason this time around I've lost my mind. I used 8 expensive test and the expensive O tests. Wasted a ton of money. So I got cheapies so I won't waste money this time if I go crazy!!

I do obsess over it and have a big urge to just want to test but I fight hard to stop myself and stick to if I'm late, it's hard because I've got an unopened pregnancy test pack in my bedroom and when ever I'm in the draw it's like looking at me

 

[Mattsgirl]

For some reason if the package is opened its sooo much more tempting.

 

[jessicasmum]

I don't normally have tests in, not needed to test for over 2 years so it's just tempting for me just seeing any pregnancy test in the house to want to test.

 

[Mattsgirl]

Yep I'm the same way. Just knowing that there's a test in the house and I have to pee twice as much making me want to test everytime.

3dpo right now and time is passing sooo slow!!

 

[jessicasmum]

Mattsgirl: Was you temping too or just opk's? I was just using opk's. My cycles can differ from 30-37 days so I'm not always the same each cycle knowing when I'm ovulating, because I used the digital tests I couldn't test again after getting my Peak so I'm just guessing/hoping I ovulated on the Monday or Tuesday.

 

[mel102]

I wish this cycle would hurry up!!! As you all know am trying to have a break this cycle and it's do difficult!!!! I felt sick last night and this morning and oh said maybe am pregnant got my hopes up a little even when I know it's VERY unlikely. Why do we do this to ourselfs!!! Sorry rant over

How's everyone doing?x

 

[wouldluvabub]

I am good, awaiting AF to finish up. I was going to temp for this cycle but I think it's going to be to hard with having 2 little monkeys that wake me up every morning. I don't think I'll get accurate readings because I am so unsettled in the mornings. I'm thinking of getting some O tests from eBay and trying those.

Hi everyone..

I was the first bfp from this thread but unfortunately I miscarried about 3 weeks ago. We are just seeing what happens at the moment, so not full on ttc. It took over 6 months after the last m/c to get a bfp again so I don't really expect much. I'm not even sure I want to go through it all again to be honest.

As for testing, I would just wait until AF is overdue before testing now and just do one or two tests. Last time I did a nice progression and everything looked great but is still didn't end well so it wouldn't give me that much reassurance seeing the tests get darker.

Thanks mouse_chicky for your PM checking on me

I know what you mean, that's why I wouldn't be able temp also that and forgetting too. So that's why opk are just easier for me.

So sorry for your loss

So sorry ttc no2! Hopefully you'll get your rainbow baby soon. With no more heartache.

I just used OPKs. My sleep schedule is all over the place so I don't think I would get a very accurate reading. In the past I used first response opk's which worked well the first time. But since coming off BC my cycles have been a little crazy so I wasn't able to test as long as I needed to. So this cycle I bought some choicemmed ones off amazon that came with 50 opks and 10 hpts for 12 bucks so I was able to get my surge. I even test the day after my positive and it was negative. So I'm pretty sure I o'd on Monday.

 

[wouldluvabub]

Very sorry for your loss ttc#2.


Anyone have experience with the cheap OPKs off eBay? Was thinking of getting a 50 pack with 10 HPT as they are only about $11?
