September POAS

    I tried to POAS today with a clear blue digital with FMU but for whatever reason there was an error on the test. I had the tiniest of light pink spotting when I wiped this morning (sorry if TMI) but no spotting since. So I guess I'll try again tomorrow. Boobs are still sore and im trying to stay positive, but idk why I just don't feel like it's our month. But well see tomorrow morning. Tomorrow will be 14 DPO.

    @Tubbs: sorry to hear about AF!

    coming over from the august thread since my cycle was strange

    Cycle Day: CD 29 (5dpo)
    TTC Cycle: 6 (one loss in July)
    Ovulation Date:
    POAS Date: 9/8
    Baby #: 1
    What's up this month: Praying for a BFP here soon- I am not sure FF has my O day correct as this is only my second cycle post D&C and the first cycle was wayyyyy long. I was given crosshairs and then they were removed. My temps have been so up and down this cycle again. I took a test today and swear I can see a second line but DH doesn't. I feel like Im going crazy because I know 5 DPO which is what FF now says is too early, but also have been having weird pinching pains and a little nausea. I might be loosing it

    @Makingbabyw: I'll be crazy with you, I think I see something in the second picture! I looked back at my chart from when I got pregnant with my daughter and it was such a mess, according to ff I got a positive pregnancy test on like 5dpo. I'm pretty sure it was later than that but ff was super confused! My fingers are crossed for you!

    I am still in post miscarriage limbo over here, I still had a (super faint) positive as of Thursday afternoon so who knows what this month will bring. I need to read up on opk again, I have a ton of wondfo, any tips?

    @Makingbabyw: I do see a line in your pic but can't tell if it's pink or evap! for you - 5 dpo is super early to get a

    @Cole: thanks for the second eyes ladies @peachykeen

    I took these exactly at the three minute mark of testing, to me the pictures are a lot more difficult to capture than what I can even see. I'm not totally positive I am really 5dpo but will just hold out a few days before going and testing agin- im thinking a week just to not get my hopes up and Really make sure it will be visible. I'm home today completely exhausted and freezing just resting and trying to let my body do what it needs to do at this point. Praying for a sticky babe this time and if not we will just be at it again trying later in the month

    All the ups and downs during my luteal phase had me worried until I did a chart overlay with my first pregnancy. Things were just as erratic! Sort of makes me feel better. Curse the TWW for making me overthink!

    @Cole: for opks, I test every day starting at 10 CD with FMU (has always worked for me), then will test when I get home if I know I am getting close. I do get a fade-in, so that helps tip me off. I use Wondfo too, never had good luck with the pricey ones.

    Howdy! It's been a busy week but here we go!

    Cycle Day: 26
    TTC Cycle: 2
    Ovulation Date: I don't know?! I think I missed it on OPK's making this the earliest in my cycle I've ever ovulated (while tracking that is)
    POAS Date: ?? 9/6 or 7th or 8th? Haha.
    Baby #: 2
    What's up this month: so I usually ovulate on day 16 or later and last month I felt it. This month j started OPK's on day 14 and I had missed it. So I'm not sure what the deal is. However, I'm already symptom spotting like crazy!

    Cycle Day: 23
    TTC Cycle: 4 (lots of us on cycle 4!)
    Ovulation Date: 9/2?
    POAS Date: 9/13
    Baby #: 2
    What's up this month: Ugh. Little hope for this cycle. FF gave me crosshairs I think mostly based on my + OPK, but i had a weird OPK pattern and my temps have been up and down so I'm not super confident I've even O'd. And if I did, due to some stuff going on w DH we only hit O-3. So, tough to be optimistic, kind of just hoping AF shows up on schedule.

    Good luck everyone! I hope we see as many positves as we saw in August!

    AF today - I'm officially out Oh well. At least I won't have to worry about fitting into my bridesmaid's dress for my sister's wedding in October (I'm assuming I'd show pretty early with baby #3). Planning on looking at the positives and getting some pumpkin beer...

    Good luck to you all! I'll have my fingers crossed

    Sorry to everyone who's got AF.

    I got crosshairs this morning, I'm 3dpo. We managed to hit O even though DH was sick so we'll have to wait and see.

    Change me to POAS on the 17th. I think I O'd early!! My temp went up this morning, yay!!

    @MrsBrewer: wow that is early if you're changing you poas by a week!

  21. Banana330

    nectarine / 2317 posts

    @dc yoga bee: can you move me to the 14th I O'd early too

  22. MrsBrewer

    coconut / 8854 posts

    @Banana330: well last cycle I O'd on CD 21 I think, so this cycle looks like CD15. I only have 1 rise in temp so far, so now I'm gunna pray it stays up and I actually o'd and this wasn't a fluke!

  23. peachykeen

    I got the strongest OPK I've had post-DD/IUD removal this cycle but my temp chart is really weird. I usually get a very clear temp spike but this cycle it seems to have risen only 0.2 degrees.

    Anyone had a chart like this before? OPKs suggest ovulation ~CD 13, which would be normal for me.

    I did start taking Vitex this cycle and my allergies have been bad - maybe that could be impacting my temps?



  24. Banana330

    nectarine / 2317 posts

    @MrsBrewer: that sounds promising!

  25. Banana330

    nectarine / 2317 posts

    @peachykeen: I've had that before, I wouldn't worry about it, sometimes you can get a gradual rise. Does Ovia give you crosshairs? or some sign of ovulation? I'm using it along with fertility friend but i'm getting frustrated cause it doesn't seem to confirm O (and it hasn't moved my AF day since I O'd earlier).

  26. Banana330

    nectarine / 2317 posts

    @Makingbabyw: Did you test again?

  27. peachykeen

    pear / 1648 posts

    @Banana330: I don't think it does give crosshairs, unfortunately, but I've only been temping for 2 months lately so not sure if it needs more data. I've been debating inputting my past data into Fertility Friend to see what it says since I used that app when TTC #1.

  28. Banana330

    nectarine / 2317 posts

    @peachykeen: I prefer it. I do love the graphics of Ovia but I find the actual data management poor. Worth putting in and see what it says...

    I'm a weirdo and track in both right now...

  29. Emsmems

    persimmon / 1331 posts

    Go figure the month I have no idea when I ovulated and I get a !!!! I just felt off, I had a feeling so I went ahead and tested this morning! the only thing is I HAVE to be at least 14 dpo (all my OPK's were negative from day 15 on) so this line is a little light I think.



  30. Revel

    pear / 1563 posts

    @peachykeen: @Banana330: only on my second month charting but my first was a slow rise chart and my current one, while not a very good looking chart, also appears to be a slow rise. From reading on FF it is not supposed to impact fertility. Here's last months chart:

    I've been avoiding these forums for a while, since I had a miscarriage, but I'm back on the ttc wagon and sort of felt like having a place to obsess over it again. It feels like all my friends are pregnant right now, and I'm really happy for them, but sad for me sometimes.

    Cycle Day: CD 22
    TTC Cycle: I lost track. 7? 8? But with a loss back in July.
    Ovulation Date: Ran out of opks this month so I'm not really sure! I"m guessing around the first or second of September.
    POAS Date: 9/13 or thereabouts, but could be off, since I'm guessing at my ovulation date.
    Baby #: 2
    What's up this month: Ran out of opks like an idiot, need to get more but sort of waiting to make sure I need them and hoping I won't. I love the idea of being pregnant through the winter, since last time I was most pregnant in the summer heat and I hated that.
    For Fun: As homage to Fall sports- what's you or your partner's favorite sports team? Haha. I'm not that interested in most sports. My husband loves all Boston teams, though, especially the Red Sox and the Patriots.

    Fingers crossed for this cycle for everyone here!
