@jodyblair: I have experienced that with both bfp and bfn cycles! No way to tell unfortunately.
-
I know I'm a rollover, but I'm peeing on sticks now, they're just OPKs and the monitor test sticks. I won't be testing tool Feb but I still feel like part of the January crowd. I got a high on the monitor this morning, and I'm about to take my first OPK of the cycle. Then tonight we are meeting our donor for insem #1. I should be O-5 today. Planning to inseminate tonight, Sunday, then depending on the opks and monitor either Monday or Tuesday or both. Hopefully I'll stay on schedule. I'm so excited that our new donor is happy to do so many inseminations in one cycle, and that he lives closer to us! No more 5 hour drive, missing work, etc for just 1-2 inseminations. Maybe this will do the trick! Everyone think good swimmer thoughts this evening for us!
-
I got a positive opk today that was darker than the control! I'm pretty excited with that since I never got a positive my last two cycles.
@Charm54: I see it!
@Finfan: Welcome!
@2farmmoms: Thinking good thoughts for you! -
Ugh AF arrived today, a week early! I guess add me to the list for Feb. We may have to put TTC on hold
I am having some issues with my neck and may need surgery
-
@jodyblair: for my second pregnancy I had tons of CM in the two week wait starting super early. It was actually my first clue that something was up, I don't usually get much CM! Good luck!
-
@2farmmoms: good luck!! So exciting. Crossing my fingers for you!
@Berly: eeek! Good luck! Time for some BDing!
@wheres_c: I'm sorry
I hope your surgery goes well and your neck feels better. That can't be easy!So my test this morning was just as faint as yesterday. I was really hoping it would be a clear BFP. I guess I'll just get again tomorrow.
-
@wheres_c: Ugh that sounds miserable
@Berly: Yay! It's such a relief seeing a positive OPK. Time for some baby making!
@hilsy85: That's what a lot of my googling says. It's tapered off now but it was so strange. It made me second guess my O date, but I had negative OPKs and DH was out of town for work so there was nothing I could have done about it. I'm still pretty sure I ovulated when I thought.
@Charm54: Your still only 10 dpo right? That's super early to get a BFP so there's still time for it to darken.
-
@Charm54: Fingers crossed! Maybe a FRER will be more definitive?
-
@Charm54: congrats!!! You are still really early so that's prob why it's still faint!
@2farmmoms: that sounds great, goodlyck!!!
@Berly: nice! Get busy
@wheres_c: booo, I'm sorry!
I hope your surgery goes well though! @jodyblair: so weird- I had some egg white cm today at 5dpo. No clue what it means either...
-
@NovBaby1112: It probably just means we're pregnant, right?
-
@jodyblair: LOL yes, let's go with that
-
@Charm54: thank you! Insemination #1 went well. We went to his house which was a little awkward but so much easier than a hotel. He gave us the use of the guest room and add much time as we needed, and it's definitely the best experience we've had so far. Today I think I have ewcm, although I'm having a little trouble telling the difference between "leftovers" from him and my own cm. Ewww!!
also, congrats to you!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for darkening lines! -
@NovBaby1112: thanks!
-
@2farmmoms good luck!! Fx for you!
Also, reporting on status - tested Thursday and this morning and BFN. Looking at CD 35 and no sign of af but pretty sure I am out. Feeling frustrated at my body. Have never, ever been this late, but I guess coming off the bcp has really screwed my body up. May have to temp if next cycle ever comes so I have a better idea what's going on. Any one else have trouble after coming off bcp after 10+ years? Love to hear your experiences.

I have been lurking on the last few POAS threads, but after some positive signs of ovulation (positive OPK, mittelschmerz, fertile CM, signs of a temperature shift - around the same time, rather than all over the place, for once), feel ready to join in on this one.
Cycle Day: 16
TTC Cycle #: month 13, FF says cycle #10 (that includes cycles as long as 120 days and as short as 16 days, though things seem to have settled down/normalized recently *knock wood*)
Ovulation and POAS dates: O looks like 1/16ish, so I'll POAS around 1/30
Baby #: 1
Your plan this month: I'm continuing to take Pregnitude, and working to temp/track extra carefully this month (setting an alarm on weekends to keep timing consistent, etc.) in preparation for a consult with my GYN in February -
@VegasBabyVegas: cycles can be really funky coming off bc. Mine didn't really regulate until 5/6months off bc.
@lady baltimore: goodluck!!
I'm having some symptoms really similar to my chemical last month- vivid dreams, sore throat, pinching/cramps, but trying really hard not to read too much into it (and failing lol) but I really REALLY don't want to get my hopes Up for nothing.

@lady baltimore: Good luck!
-
@NovBaby1112: Me too - 5 dpo and trying not to read into symptoms too much! Vivid dreams, a dip to the cover line at 4 dpo, pinchy stabby pains in lower right abdomen, then my temp shot up today .5 higher than the previous high... all good signs but I've had a cycle like this in November which I think was a CP (only a shadow of a line one day).
Its way too early for implantation right? I've never heard of a dip on day 4...
-
@Chaosmaven: I googled it a bit bc I had a big dip at 5dpo, and from what I read the earliest time a fertilized egg reaches your uterus to implant is 4dpo, it takes awhile to travel through the tubes and reach the uterus. So it's *possible* but it would be pretty early. There is something called a corpus Luteum dip that occurs from 2-5dpo and it's not related to pregnancy. Implantation dips generally don't happen until 6dpo. But it's certsinly not impossible! Here's my chart
-
-
@NovBaby1112: Maybe it was a corpus luteum dip? I've never seen the second rise being so high except for my m/c. But it is really early... here's mine. Your chart looks good - good luck! I'm going to try to hold out testing until next Sunday.
-
@Chaosmaven: yours looks really good too!! Fingers crossed!
-
@NovBaby1112: @Chaosmaven: those charts look good ladies! With dd I had an implantation dip at 5dpo. This time around I'm not charting yet (made me crazy) but I'm sure I had what I think were implantation cramps at 7dpo.
That being said , I wouldn't put me in the BFP category yet. All 3 tests I've taken have been very very squinters, even the FRERs. They've all shown up close to the 10min mark so I'm worried they might be evaps? I'm 11dpo and it was no darker today (maybe even lighter?) than it was at 9dpo. I'm not counting myself out since it's still early - I'll try again in a few days (okay, who am I kidding - I'll try again tomorrow
)
-
@Charm54: aww I hope they get darker for you soon! Are you sure of your O dates? 11dpo is still really early though, I wouldn't worry too much yet! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!
-
As I was looking for some good news on here from some of you ladies but I know it's coming soon!
@Chaosmaven: you can take me completely off the list we won't be able to try again until April or May but I will be a cheerleader for you ladies until I'm cleared to jump back in.
-
So this is this morning.... I think i can safely say it's a BFP! I can't wait to put DD in her big sister shirt and surprise dh after work today. He will be shocked because I showed him the past few days squinters ... he said I was crazy and that there was no line whatsoever and we would just have to try again next month
-
@Charm54: So happy for you!! Congratulations!
-
@Charm54: Yay! Congratulations!
-
@Honeygold89: thinking of you and hope you are healing okay!
@Charm54: woo hoo!!! That's a good line!
Does anyone know if taking bcomplex can cause pregnancy symptoms?? I know it helps to increase your progesterone so I'm wondering if in some way can cause preg symptoms? Im only 7dpo so I feel like it's almost impossible to have symptoms this early, and I just started bcomplex this cycle.
-
@NovBaby1112: I didn't have any when I took it last month. I hope that the reason for your symptoms is that you're pregnant!
-
@Charm54: Yay, congrats!
-
@NovBaby1112: I'm not sure if it can cause symptoms or not, but I hope they're a good sign for you! I've been having lots of weird twinges and cramps too, but I'm pretty sure I'm just reading way too much into normal feelings. I'm 6 DPO and seriously counting down the days until I can test. I'll probably start on Friday at 10 DPO. I know it's super early, but that's when I got a positive with my son. When do you think you'll test?
-
@Charm54: congrats!!! That's a good line!
-
@Charm54: congrats!! Awesome line!!
-
@hilsy85: thanks, I hope so..,but the logical side of my brain says 7dpo is too early! We'll see...
@jodyblair: I'm so torn! A part of me wants to test early at like 9dpo but another part just wants to wait if AF is a few days late.
I dunno what ill end up doing!
-
@Charm54: yay congrats have a h&h 9 months!
@NovBaby1112: thank you. It's going fine my levels are starting to drop now and I'm not having much pain at all now I'm just ready for these next few months to pass so we can try again. Hopefully you'll be off these boards by then good luck.
-
@Charm54: Congrats! How many dpo are you?
-
@Charm54: Congratulations!
I haven't posted much because I'm so new to all of this. I think I'm 1dpo today so now I'm just waiting to test.
-
@Charm54: congratulations! Have a happy and healthy 9 months!!!
-
Thank you everyone!!! I can hardly stand the excitement and having to wait until this aftn to tell dh!!
@travellingbee: I'm 12dpo
I am having some issues with my neck and may need surgery
