Alright well I tested, and it was which doesn't surprise me. I am going to test again on the 28th which will be day 42 of my cycle. I didn't temp this cycle so I don't have an ovulation day at all. Next cycle I will!

@KelLeeLeee: I definitely see a line and looks like it has color tomorrow

I've only been lurking so far, but just got some super faint positives today (8 dpo, 6 days before missed period.) My husband didn't really believe me, until I showed him a real negative, haha. This is our second (DS is 19 months). Due date is March 25 by LMP and 27th by date I ovulated (last time my OB ignored me when I told her ovulation date, so my official date is likely to be the 25th).

Thanks for the congrats, guys! I tested again this morning and the line was unmissable, so I'm feeling better about it all. I still can't really believe it though!
@KelLeeLeee Can't wait to see your FRER either way. For what it's worth, I've taken two internet cheapies that were inconclusive but have had 3 FRERs with clear lines, so you never know. I think I have a bad batch.
@Jess1483 Congrats! That's super early!
@Mrsbrewer Fingers crossed for you!

Negative on a FRER today AF is due any minute now, so I'm rolling over to cycle 7. Thank you all for your support and excitement, you ladies are the best!

Congrats to the weekend s!
And major hugs to those that got AF
I'm pretty sure I'm out. I'm not really feeling any major symptoms, and I've tested and gotten BFNs, so I'm not holding out too much hope. I just hope if AF is coming, she arrives soon. She's not due until Wednesday, but DH and I have scheduled a get away for Friday and we haven't had a vacation in SO LONG (seriously...like two years) so it would really suck to be smack in the middle of AF then.

@onthemove: It was super early, and when I tested this morning, I got one negative and one faulty test (yesterday I got 3 separate +'s). Sigh. So either I'm pregnant and the tests are just confusing, or I had a chemical pregnancy. I'm going to wait a couple of days to test again, so I think I'll hang around here a little longer. Here's hoping this morning was a fluke and I'll get a strong positive in a day or two.

question for you ladies. i think i'm officially in my fertile window. my dad ended up coming to our house for the week to help with some painting and the timing couldn't be worse! i am hoping to get some BDing in regardless... but i have some questions!
i know some people say every other day is best for BD. and some say as much as possible. what is your preferred method? what worked best for you if you had any past pregnancies? i think my O day is Saturday (i'm not testing but my cycle is like clockwork and whenever my app predicts i O, i have a lot of ewcm that day... so I think it's pretty accurate)... when should i be BDing?
pomelo / 5129 posts
@loki: technically, it only takes once for it happen!
When I did get a BFP, we weren't "trying" and I'm pretty sure we were only DTD maybe once a week, so that was all it took.
since then when we've "tried", I don't worry so much about ED versus EOD, but more about hitting at least 3 days out of the fertile window (O-3 to O+1).
If you're expected to O Saturday, I'd go ahead and DTD as much as you feel like between now and then, but try to hit a couple days starting Wed to Sunday.
EOD is only "better" than ED if you know that there are fertility issues related to your partner.

@MaryM: oh ok, thanks so much for the info! i was never quite sure why people said every other day! we have no known issues yet so we'll just try and go for as much as possible. tmi, but my sex drive is ULTRA low so this will probably be a welcome change for DH haha.
pomelo / 5129 posts
@loki: A lot of people say EOD especially when they're not tracking anything or using OPKs because it's an easy enough way to not "miss" (and not get as exhausted!)
I've never had a super sex drive, but so far, I've found it's different when TTC. Thankfully DH and I haven't gotten burned out yet (well, he was rather exhausted this past month! but at least it hasn't become a "chore")
pear / 1787 posts
@MaryM: haha ya i'm worried DH is a bit bitter... after months of me not being overly interested, i'm totally into it now. i think he'll get over it though.
pomelo / 5129 posts
@loki: I worried about that too. Especially because I didn't want DH having "performance anxiety" over TTC versus us having sex just because.
So now I try to make sure we do it more throughout the month so he's not immediately clued in to sex vs. sex with a purpose.
pear / 1787 posts
@MaryM: that's smart. i probably need to get better about that. DH tried the other day and i actually said "i'm not fertile yet". SO BAD. haha.
edit: sorry for threadjacking!
how are the POASers for today doing?! any news?
nectarine / 2465 posts
@loki: I don't have any positives, but a lot of people I see who do get BFPs will do eod, I've done eod and every day and it didn't make a difference for me. I will say though that when we did every day dh was exhausted by the time O rolled around!

Just got back from being away from the computer for the weekend!
@onthemove: Congrats!
@KelLeeLeee: So sorry for the BFN, but best of luck to you next month!

@loki: I'm on my second cycle after getting off the pill, so my cycles are wonky still. Because of this, we started BD ED starting CD12. I ended up ovulating at CD17 or CD18. I think we missed 1-2 days. It does get a little exhausting. Once we know my fertile window, we're going to BD ED during that time.
Good luck!

@KelLeeLeee: @meredithNYC: I'm sorry ladies. July isn't turning out as I'd hoped.
I haven't tested yet. But af isn't due yet anyway (I'm 12 dpo and I think I have a long lp.) Not sure if I will or I won't today, thinking I'd rather test with dh who is at work til I think 7? Been having symptoms but nothing I can't chalk up to other stuff, af, whatever. So we'll see.

@kelleeleee @meredithnyc sorry ladies, I was really hoping both of you would get your BFPs this month! Agree with the other ladies on the board that s treat is due for you!
AFM, I'm here at 11dpo today and I have told myself that if I don't have any spotting today (for past three cycles i have spotted on either 9-11 dpo) then I'll test tomorrow. This cycle is odd for me as its the first I've been temping so I feel like I am reading too much into my chart, but on the negative side I have had really bad cramps all day today so AF could show up anytime as well.

@googly-eyes: @Annette: Thanks, guys. It's only the middle of the month, so here's hoping there are plenty of positives to come, including both of yours
