Hellobee Boards

Yay, good luck everyone! Hoping for lots of June mamas!

I'm a little nervous because this is our very first time TTC and I can't figure out when I'm supposed to ovulate. I have a clearblue fertility monitor but I just started using it so I don't think it "knows" my body yet. It has said I've had high fertility since day CD6.

I'm in. Thanks for starting the thread, @Littlebit!

Cycles Trying: #9
Current Cycle Day: CD26/5DPO
Estimated Ovulation Date: CD21
POAS Date: October 2nd!
BD Timing: O-3, O-2, O-1, O+1
Anything new or extra this cycle? Erm, we BD a lot more than we usually do!

Bonus Question: What is your favorite holiday? Christmas!!

@doxielove: hahahaha.. DH said last night after BD.. this is hard work, I need to get in better shape.

Cycles Trying: In the middle of cycle #8, first cycle post chemical pregnancy though
Current Cycle Day: CD11
Estimated Ovulation Date: CD20-21, if things are still normal.
POAS Date: It's going to be mid-October sometime, I think. Will know better once I confirm O!
BD Timing: EOD starting about now until post-O. ED once +OPK usually.
Anything new or extra this cycle? Trying progesterone post-O to prevent pre-AF spotting. Not sure if that was the cause of the chemical pregnancy or what.

Bonus Question: What is your favorite holiday? Probably Christmas, I guess?

@Mrs. Jump Rope: boo...

@ash427: welcome!
@bhbee: welcome! I have a LO too. He is 16 months old.

@Littlebit: haha thanks! And, who are we kidding? I'll be POAS starting at 8DPO!

Hi all! I'm a Newbee here. We're TTC#2 (DS is now 15 months old-- wow time flies)! It's good to be back in the game!

Cycles Trying: Cycle #1 for LO #2!

Current Cycle Day: 21

Estimated Ovulation Date: Not sure I'm actually ovulating (still breastfeeding my 15 mo DS), but I did get a +OPK yesterday, so hopefully any day now! *fingers crossed*

POAS Date: My cycles have been all over the place since I'm still BF. My last cycle was 43 days, but before LO, I had a pretty regular 30-31 days. If no AF, I'll probably POAS on October 9 or 10.

BD Timing: No real dates in mind, but have been BD'ing every/ every other day for the past week or so.

Anything new or extra this cycle? Just taking my usual prenatals every day. Also, I'm temping and checking OPKs daily (completely new to this process)!

Bonus Question: What is your favorite holiday? I love the general "holiday season" from Halloween--> Christmas!

@doxielove: your chart is looking good!!

@T.H.O.U.: Thanks! I'm pleased thus far. Trying not to get my hopes up too high, you know how that goes! How's pregnancy treating you?

I've been hanging out here a bit since a friend recommended HB, but this is my very first post!

Cycles Trying: 1st official. Went off BC in August but we were NTNP for that first cycle.
Current Cycle Day: CD20
Estimated Ovulation Date: Today! I got up the courage to post because I was so excited that I finally got my first +OPK this morning. Have been trying to figure out my cycle since stopping BC -- it seems to be about 32 days...
POAS Date: Oct 8
BD Timing: immediately post +OPK, late for work
Anything new or extra this cycle? Just married last month and my husband is suuuuper excited for babies. Let's see how this goes!

Bonus Question: What is your favorite holiday? Thanksgiving, because it's all about food!

@Mrs. Jump Rope: I love OPKs!!

Speaking of OPKs (which I love, BTW), I use Clear Blue digitals and had some interesting results last cycle. Because I even got a "malfunction" sign once, I called the Clear Blue help line this morning. (I'm a little crazy like that.) The girl I spoke with was sooooooo sweet. Without any hassle at all, she is sending me an entire new 20 stick pack and said I should have it within a week! That's not even something I asked for or expected. Anyhow... I hope this little tid bit of info is helpful to someone!

@littlek @Littlebit thank you so much! You guys seem like a fun bunch. My girlfriend Mrs. Jazz told me I'd get addicted

@MrsMcD: I'm so glad I will be on vacation next week. That way I won't be tempted to test early. I think I'd rather see AF than a BFN.

@littlek: is so hard to wait! Chloe was the first BFP I ever saw. My RE told me not to test before February 17, but I'm awful and couldn't help myself. It was stark white on 8DPO, but I was so sick and convinced something was going on with me! I felt like I had the flu.

I tested again at 10DPO and got a super faint line. So faint that we argued whether or not it was even there. I pinky swore I wouldn't test until until 2.17, but POAS on Valentine's Day and got a BFP.

I'm terrible about waiting. I super encourage POAS.
