@MrsCB: welcome to the gang!
@SweetMamaM: I think all of our teenage selves are laughing at us right now... -
@MrsCB: Welcome! Hope this is the one for you!

Ugh I am hating the pg symptoms that I could so easily explain away... Went out for Indian food as part of a bachelorette last night and have been burping up a storm today... Could be pregnant, could just be having a bad reaction to the Indian food. Gross either way i guess, but more tolerable if pg.
8dpo today, want an answer for this cycle but know that even tomorrow is probably too early for answers. Going to try and hold out til next weekend I think, although I kinda feel like AF is on the way so she might surprise me before then. -
@SweetMamaM: I'm so antsy for you to test!
-
@Ash: I'm antsy for me to test too LOL. The timing for us this month would be absolutely perfect but my hopes aren't too high. Even doing everything right doesn't always lead to a BFP.
-
@SweetMamaM: I know. I'm rooting for ya tho!
-
@Ash: you are a sweetie. Well if it's any consolation, my unsettled tummy has lasted all day LOL. If I'm not pg, I feel a little ripped off that I've been off-colour all Sunday!
-
@Mrs. J: @ineebee: Thanks!
Since I took the hcg trigger I know I O'd today, and all day I've been wondering what's happening in there - were there enough sperm to meet the egg? Did any get lucky?? This two weeks is going to be slow! And I can't start testing early because I'll be away from DH and I don't want to find out and either have to keep it a secret, or tell him over FaceTime.
-
@MrsCB: You're about a week ahead of me! I'm taking my first HCG trigger shot next week, so I'm excited to see what happens with you. I do have a question, though. Did your RE tell you not to take a HPT because of the HCG in your trigger shot? I understood that I have to take a blood test at the doctor's office, which actually *comforted* me because then I have no choice but to wait until 14DPO!
-
@ineebee: This is actually the 2nd time I've done the Ovidrel. I was SO nervous the first time! But it was such a breeze. Anyways, I decided to test out the trigger. I started at 4 or 5 DPO and kept testing every day. At 8DPO (10DPT), it was gone. I kept testing but gave up around 13DPO because I was having spotting and I had the blood test he next day. Turns out it was implantation bleeding, but it wasn't a sticky baby.
So you could test it out to see if it goes away. Or if it gets darker that's good too. But if you cave and test early, don't get too excited and make sure to do it at least twice in a row so you know if it's getting lighter or darker.
-
@MrsCB: So sorry to hear about your first Ovidrel cycle. This is good advice, thank you!! Here's hoping that February is the magic month!
-
Ugggh. So freaking frustrated. 2nd cycle off BCP, currently on CD40. Based off of my last cycle, it looked like I might be set to O on CD 36...and all was going well. Today I had a temp drop. I guess if temps go back up tomorrow it's still a possibility that FF will throw my crosshairs back(and putting O back on CD36)... Seriously just so confused!!! Hopin' everyone else is having a better month!!! http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3dc29d

Hi ya'll, I guess I can move on over here now. I'm still in my first cycle post miscarriage so I don't know how my cycles are now. Was expecting AF earlier this week and still haven't started. BFN at 8dpo, 10dpo, and 14dpo. Soo I don't know what's going on.
Anyway, I'm 15dpo on our 10th month TTC. If this doesn't end in a BFP (which I don't expect) I haven't decided if I'm going to go all out with charting and OKPs or just give up. I know they're total opposites but I'm so frustrated at this point I don't know where to go.
Good luck to everyone and let's blow January out of the water!!

Hey all! It's *almost* Monday so I'm checking in. Can't stay away for long. I am so back and forth on what is going on. My period is expected tomorrow and I am usually VERY predictable within 12-24 hours. I also usually get spotting 24 hours pre-period which I do not have at all. So keeping my FX but realize it's probably mostly in my head. I have a bit of cramping right now- a 50/50 mix of back and abdomen, and usually my cramps are 90% back. So who knows. I might test in the AM if AF didn't arrive overnight but I might wait til Tues. Today is I believe 10DPO, I checked with a test I think yesterday midday and it was BFN, for a minute I thought I saw something but I ripped apart the test to look closer and it was stark white, lol. Amazing what your eyes will see when they want to. So.... we'll see I guess. LOVE not seeing spotting though, hope to get no spotting and no AF!
-
@SweetMamaM: I completely agree with everything you said on here this weekend. Agree x 1239487239847. We need to be best friends.
-
@MrsTiz: hope this is your month!!!!!
-
@ms.janedoe: hoping you get those crosshairs too! It's a small part of why I'm not temping, I would drive myself bananas. May change my mind in like six months
@MrsTiz: when you say that you are 15dpo, by what gauge are you measuring that you O'd? Could it be that you O'd late?@KJfromNJ: aww you are a sweetie! Sweet, new BFF to stay with when we finally get to the states LOL. I really hope that things turn out positively for you.AFM, I'm feeling pretty meh about the whole thing. I'd love for it to happen for us this month but my hopes are really not high. A bit crampy like AF is coming...
-
@SweetMamaM: moving to the states? Whereabouts?
And FYI my bestie had cramps and told me she "knew" AF was coming and she was wrong. So sometimes it's not AF! That's what I'm holding onto. My crampiness feels different than usual and no spotting so my fingers are crossed.
-
Just looked back to my charts from when I started charting in October- since recording, I ALWAYS had at least spotting on CD27. Usually AF CD28, sometimes 29. But always spotting on the 27th and later. Today is CD28 (and in 20 minutes CD29) and no spotting. FX FX FX!
-
@KJfromNJ: not moving, we just definitely want to visit. My DH is a massive NBA junkie so we'll get there some day.
About the only thing I'm holding onto as a positive sign is that I'm way more emo than usual. We've got the season finale of Grey's Anatomy tonight (we're quite behind the states) and I'm expecting to bawl my eyes out, which is usually not my style. -
Um... hi hello. Ok. Soooo no AF today. And I test. And I SWEAR I see a line. Waiting to use the digi tomorrow.... I'm 10DPO I think... does anyone else see it? I promise you something is there... so I am freaking out....!!!!!
-
@KJfromNJ: I see a line! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
-
@KJfromNJ: I see a line! My 9dpo looked identical to that! Congrats!!
-
@Ash: @sorrycharlie: Thanks guys! FREAKING OUT! Can't wait to tell DH when he gets home!
-
@SweetMamaM: No AF for you. Only BFP!
@MrsTiz: I'm sorry! I'm in cycle 6 since our m/c and I'm still not back to normal... it suuuuuuuuucks! *hugs* I'm just wondering if all you use is a period app? I was using a period app for a few years and found out that even though I was having 28 day cycles, I wasn't Oing on CD14 like the app would say. So I recommend maybe trying some opks to see if you're even Oing around the time of bd... since you've been trying for so long. I don't temp (yet) but after 10mos of ttc, maybe that would help too. I'm sorry you're going through this! Let me know if you need anything!
-
@KJfromNJ: I see a line too! Exciting!!!!! I've been lurking hoping for good news from you!
-
@runnerd: Awwww thanks! It still doesn't feel real.... definitely will be doing the digi tomorrow AM (and pending results, will make a doctor appt for blood draw.) Then maybe it will feel real?
I am also just jazzed not to have woken up with back-breaking cramps this AM, lol!
-
@KJfromNJ: I see something! Looking forward to your dig
-
@ms.janedoe: could the temp drop have been implantation? It looks like your temps are back up today! I don't chart but fx that's what it is!! :))
-
@KJfromNJ: Ahhhh!! I see it too! Fingers crossed for a + digi!
-
@KJfromNJ: Yea!! Take a digital...
I'm day 24 and still no O.
-
@twodoghouse: @littlek: I'm going to wait til tmrw AM to do the digi (morning pee) so this MAY or MAY NOT be the longest 24 hours of my life!
And BOY am I glad now that I didn't drink Friday or Saturday at the two parties we went to!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
@littlek: I think I Od on cd24... Maybe it can be your lucky day too!! FX for ya!!
-
@KJfromNJ: So much self control to wait until tomorrow! I hope you have a busy day so you don't have to dwell on it all day. I'll be thinking good thoughts for you!!
@littlek: Ugh, that's so frustrating. Hoping you O soon!
-
@twodoghouse: it's so faint that I'm nervous if I did a digi now with non-first morning pee that it might not be accurate! But yeah, longest 22 hours of my life!
-
@KJfromNJ: Take a digi!!!!! I did it at like 9pm 2 hrs after my first BFP and it was positive. No way you can wait til tomorrow. And some people say second morning pee is better than first anyway. Congrats!
-
Sooooooo @JoJoGirl: was right!
-
@KJfromNJ: haha YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!!!!
-
@KJfromNJ: Yayyyy! So exciting!
-
I think we're going to have to name our baby Metformin since that apparently did the trick!
