    I just took todays OPK and it was super positive! Curious to see how long my LP will be this time. Now to twiddle my thumbs for the next month. Hoping there are lots of BFPs on here to fill it up!

    I know I'm way late to the game, but can I join in?

    Cycle day // I'm on CD25 right now...AF should be coming early next week

    Cycle # // This will be the first! I'm very excited

    Ovulation & POAS dates // Should be ovulating around the 21/22

    Baby # // 2

    Your game plan this month // We're planning on BDing from the end of AF to a few days before O. I know the Shettles method has been discounted, but we're attempting anyway, just for fun. If it doesnt work after a few months, we'll just BD away until it sticks!

    @Radish: Is it weird to not do anything about the positive OPK? I feel like it'd be programmed into us by now to jump into action as soon as you see that lol. You're almost there! I'll be stalking you next month for your BFP

    @ValentineMommy: Of course! Congrats on TTC #2! I'll put you as TBD POAS date for now?

    @snowjewelz: Thank you, TBD is fine!!! It's super exciting! I'm a worry-wort and completely scared that I won't be able to conceive easily this time, even though there was no problem with DS. Sigh - I need to relax!

  10. Radish

    nectarine / 2079 posts

    @snowjewelz: Honestly, the thought of a Christmas baby scares me more than the desire to have a baby. Although we technically hit O-4 so there is the tiniest possibility (I really thought I wouldn't ovulate until CD 18-19 again).

  11. Radish

    nectarine / 2079 posts

    @ValentineMommy: Yay for another TTC #2. How long did it take you with LO #1?

  12. snowjewelz

    wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts

    @ValentineMommy: You do lol Esp if you were able to conceive DS just fine

    @Radish: Hmmm... Normally I would tell bees that you still have a chance at O-4 since I've seen it happen on HB, but in your case, I will wish that the swimmers didn't make it

    @Adira: I almost think part of it is a coping mechanism for me so that if I don't get PG this month, it's not such a big deal. I am not thrilled with the idea of an Xmas delivery but I would rather have an Xmas baby than no baby. When do you POAS?

  15. ValentineMommy

    pomelo / 5791 posts

    @Radish: Technically...an hour? Lol, it was the first "try".

  16. Adira

    wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts

    @simplyfelicity: I hear you! I was planning on POAS on April 12th, but I might cave and POAS on April 6th if AF stays at bay! That will actually be 12 DPO, which will actually be good either way, because even if I don't see a BFP, at least my LP will be longer than it has been!

  17. simplyfelicity

    cantaloupe / 6634 posts

    @Adira: True! I am planning on testing at 15 DPO. I would rather not know if I have a chemical pregnancy, ya know? Best of luck!!!

  18. Adira

    wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts

    @simplyfelicity: Yeah, good point! Well, I'll hold out for April 12th if I can (although more likely AF will just show up...)! Good luck to us both!

    @anyajenkins: Are you still holding out to test on the 5th??

  21. snowjewelz

    wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts

    @MrsHansen82: That's good as long as there's no full blown AF yet!

  23. Radish

    @ValentineMommy: I also conceived last time on our first cycle trying. I feel like it was all too easy last time and worry it won't happen for a long time this time. We are on to cycle #3 now.

  24. turquoisemama

    persimmon / 1481 posts

    @snowjewelz: Scratch that, AF showed up. Dang.

    @MrsHansen82: Boo. So sorry.

  26. snowjewelz

    wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts

    @MrsHansen82: Nooo! I was really hoping it was implantation spotting. So sorry to hear Cycle 3 seems to be the magic # for a lot of us so I know you're gonna get your BFP next!

    @Mrs.Lilac: December 3, but I was induced and only in early labor at that point (so not sure when I would have naturally).

    Can anybody explain to me the BD ratio i see occasionally. 0-4, 0-1... what does that mean? Am I making sense? I have seen it on FF as well.

  34. snowjewelz

    wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts

    @Brawly: If you know what day you O, O-1 means you BD the day before O, etc.

  35. Brawly

    cherry / 173 posts

    @snowjewelz: O!!! Gotcha, So O+1 would be the day after O? What is the day of? Just O? Thanks darlin!

    wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts

    @Brawly: Hehe yup! Man, sooner or later all these info just swarms your brain. I came in HB not knowing anything and now I'm spewing out these things every other sentence. I have to catch myself from saying these to DH and explain things in real life terms haha.

    @MrsHansen82: Major hugs for you today too!

    For those who might be feeling down, I thought this blog post was great. It's by a good friend of mine and DH's who's going through IF treatments. I really love how open she's been about everything. But this post made me smile

    @Mrs.Lilac: AHHHH FIRST APRIL BFP!!! Amazing!!! Have a happy and healthy 9 months little lady.

    Trying to catch up here but it's hard. I am feeling really happy and optimistic though because this afternoon I just got this! It's not quite positive but so close I bet it will be positive tonight. This is CD14 which puts me right on track for a CD16 ovulation which was normal for my previous cycles!!! Omg! So happy! On my way to acupuncture here in a bit and can help but feel like that helped along with night weaning and a few other things.
