Cycle Day: 2
TTC Cycle: 11
Ovulation Date: 9th or 10th?
POAS Date: 23rd
Baby #: 2
What's up this month: Last chance for a few months. hoping and praying.... I thought hubby was going to be home my whole fertile time this last cycle... but I just looked at my app and he'll likely only be here for a few days before I even get EWCM, it's a long shot, just like any other month this long year of trying.... Stupid work away from home job...
For Fun - Summer Plans?: Nothing special. Our fifth anniversary is this summer, but hubby will be out of province. Spending lots of quality time with dd and counting down the time till hubby gets to come home again from Labrador. -
Cycle Day: 20
TTC Cycle: 1st cycle post miscarriage (in April)
Ovulation Date: My clue app says today
POAS Date: 7/13
Baby #: 3
What's up this month: First cycle trying since my miscarriage in April. My two best friends are about 6 weeks along, it would be amazing to be pregnant together. (We were all pregnant together with LO1 and LO2, basically a pregnancy pact but not really
)
For Fun - Summer Plans?: Not much, we've already taken our big vacation for the year, we might do some small camping trips here and there. -
Cycle Day: 7
TTC Cycle: 5
Ovulation Date: It seems to change every month, but I think around July 10th
POAS Date: July 24th
Baby #: 1
What's up this month: Trying to work on stress! My husband and I were extremely stressed out last month during month 4, to the point where I think it would have been almost impossible to conceive. I'm going to continue using OPKs this month and pre-seed.
For Fun - Summer Plans?: We are going to the adirondacks for a week in August for a much needed vacation. -
@lilyann: Wishing you so much

Cycle Day: 13
TTC Cycle: 6
Ovulation Date: July 1st
POAS Date: July 15th (if I can wait that long)
Baby #: 1
What's up this month: Keeping up with temping, hoping the relaxation of being on summer break helps me out!
For Fun - Summer Plans?: All of the travel! Visiting in-laws and then my parents this month, plus have a teacher conference in Vegas, then going to Europe at the beginning of August! Hoping to someday be able to tell a kid they travelled far early in their in-utero days.

Cycle Day: 19
TTC Cycle: 1
Ovulation Date: ???
POAS Date: July 7? 8?
Baby #: 2
What's up this month:
My cycles are so weird since I'm still nursing so I have no idea when I ovulated (if I ovulated yet) or even how long I should expect my cycle to go. I told myself I wouldn't test this cycle or next cycle until I was late and feeling sick- which last time was basically by 12dpo. My husband swears this month worked and I went to a tarot card reader last night who told me we were going to have a surprise baby... I told her we were already trying and she said I thought it would take forever and the surprise was it would happen fast so who knows!For Fun - Summer Plans?: We are going camping at the beach this weekend and we will probably go to Chicago at the end of the summer to visit family and take my daughter to the American Girl place.
I'm actually really nervous about trying again, I was really sick with my first and I'm scared about being sick with a toddler and missing out on summer fun so this will be an interesting roller coaster ride for me.

Cycle Day: 12
TTC Cycle: 1
Ovulation Date: 6/30 approx
POAS Date: 7/16
Baby #: 3
What's up this month: my cycles just became regular after coming off of birth control. We are just crossing our fingers and hoping for the best.
For Fun - Summer Plans?: none really. We go swimming in the 4th and that's about it. -
Cycle Day: 9
TTC Cycle: 10 or 11 I think. I'm losing track! We did take a few months off in the spring due to a few issues.
Ovulation Date: 7/4, thereabouts
POAS Date: 7/20
Baby #: 1
What's up this month: Attempting the SME plan. Nothing major about it, but it helps to have a schedule of sorts. I think my DH likes that I can tell him, ok tonight and then this next night we have to do it, etc. We tried just doing it whenever, but we haven't been hitting the best days I guess. I also use opks, but they don't always detect a surge.For Fun - Summer Plans?: not much, relaxing and enjoying my garden.
to all this month!
-
Cycle Day: 15
TTC Cycle: 1st cycle TTC after a few months NTNP while waiting for my cycle to regulate after BCP
Ovulation Date: 6/29 (today!) probably
POAS Date: 7/8 even though it's really early cause it's DHs birthday
Baby #: 2 (LO1 is almost 2)What's up this month: Getting serious about TTC this month. OPKs plus temping to pinpoint O. Our plan was BD every day we saw EWCM until O is confirmed. Fingers crossed it works because we are both exhausted and would definitely not follow that plan again...
For Fun - Summer Plans?: We just got back from an anniversary trip in Napa. Not much planned for the rest of summer - except hopefully being pregnant!

Cycle Day: CD3
TTC Cycle: 1
Ovulation Date: aprox 7/11-7/14
POAS Date: 7/25
Baby #: 2
What's up this month: DD1 is about 16 months old, and to conceive her we used metformin, progesterone, and clomid (I have PCOS). I have been on metformin for 3 months since weaning breastfeeding 3 months ago. I hadn't gotten a period since postpartum (with my PCOS i don't ovulate and don't get periods on my own) so after 3 months my doc said I could induce it with progesterone, which worked, and now i'll be taking clomid starting tonight through CD7. Last time I ovulated on CD17 and we were successful that first round - so I'm hoping for that again!
For Fun - Summer Plans?: DH and I are going to Italy in a few weeks!! It actually may work out for some good DD time while there, but probably a bit on the late side (I'll be there CD16-24). Last time I got pregnant I was in London during my TWW, so I'm hoping being abroad during that time is good implantation luck for me!! -
@JennyPenny: eeee!!! So excited for you guys!
ETA: We did that plan when we conceived T - it was exhausting and I have NO idea how we would do it now that we have a toddler.
-
@LBee: thanks! I'm so excited to finally be acting on this baby fever that's been raging for ages. Though right now it does seem amazing that anyone manages to have 2 kids
-
Ugh - you know you're TTC when your A/C goes out and the first thing you think is "this is going to mess up my temps tomorrow morning so that I can't trust a temp spike!!"
-
Well, I am taking generic Mucinex consistently leading up to expected O day. I have to TMI share, but for the first time that I can remember in a long time, I am gushing CM and quite a bit appears to be EWCM. I haven't seen EW since last summer! Yay!
I know Mucinex doesn't produce extra CM, but it definitely seems to be helping somehow.
-
@Bibliolove: that's great that that you saw more EWCM! Mine dried up the day before O which has me feeling a bit frustrated
I got cross hairs on FF this morning so I'm officially 3DPO. Already symptom spotting like a crazy lady cause it's way too early. Here's hoping I can keep busy and the TWW will speed along...

Cycle Day: 10
TTC Cycle: 1
Ovulation Date: July 6th?
POAS Date: July 19th
Baby #: 2
What's up this month: This is our first month ttc after losing 2 pregnancies last summer. I need to go in and check my thyroid levels, but I'm super hopeful that we will get a positive this first month, since I'm planning on BDing every other day, which is what we did for our DD.For Fun - Summer Plans?: We already went on our big summer vacation to niagara falls and Toronto, so we don't have much else planned this summer.
-
Cycle Day: 25
TTC Cycle: 2
Ovulation Date: approx 6/30
POAS Date: 7/10
Baby #: 2
What's up this month: after a super weird cycle last month this one *seems* to be in line with my normal 35 ish day cycle, and if so I think our timing was pretty good. With my longer cycles I will probably start opks next month if we weren't successful this month.
For Fun - Summer Plans?: A somewhat quiet July and then a family vacation in August and a trip to California in September. -
wishing everyone lots of luck this month!
-
I have a POAS problem. Lol. But I think I got a squinter.
-
@littleblessings: the first pic is cut off for me but I def see something in the second one, although can't tell color or if it runs top to bottom on the test from the photo. I'm no expert but looks promising for an early dpo.
What do you think?
-
@littleblessings: the first pic didn't load, but I can easily see it in the second! Don't have to tilt my screen or anything!
Congrats!!
-
Wow! That looks
to me!! I noticed we Oed around the same time so you're totally tempting me to POAS early...
-
@littleblessings: the first pic is cut off for me as well, but I see a line in the second one! What dpo are you?
-
I guess now is as good of a time as any to jump in
Cycle Day: 10
TTC Cycle: 1
Ovulation Date: No idea. I o'ed CD 17 before baby. Taking opks this month.
POAS Date: July 24?
Baby #: 2!
What's up this month: Living the dream!
For Fun - Summer Plans?: Nope. We bought our first house over the holidays so decorating, painting, and still settling in!
-
@Revel: I'm pretty confident. It's pink in person.
@dc yoga bee: I honestly have no idea. Fertility friend never gave me crosshairs. It's weird but I was also was sick so temps were wonky. -
@littleblessings: awesome, keep us updated!
-
Ovulation was a bit later this month (using OPKs), so I won't POAS til 7/16. Now to keep my mind occupied til then
-
Why hello, friends
Cycle Day: 17
TTC Cycle: 2, I guess? Last month was very NTNP, though.
Ovulation Date: Not sure. Soon, I think.
POAS Date: Ovia seems to think my next period will show up on 7/17, so maybe I will take one then. That sounds a mite early to me for AF, but never too early to POAS
Baby #: 2
I have a 27 month old DD.What's up this month: I just got back from a month away for work (Salt Lake City and London), so I don't know how my body will respond. I think I'm going to ovulate soon, because I feel hella nauseous. I don't use OPKs but have a pretty reliable cycle, even if it's a little long. We're both kinda nervous for #2 but decided to go for it this month.
For Fun - Summer Plans?: Beach in 3 weeks! Until then, I am not going anywhere, and it sounds glorious. DD is home with me 3 days a week this summer, so we'll play around the city.
All
to everyone!
-
@Mrs. D:
sounds so stressful. Does he ever go anywhere fun where you can come with?? I'm sorry it's taking so long. I hope this is your month.@lilyann:
July was my lucky post-April and May-miscarriage month two years ago, and I was totally surprised. I hope this is it for you, too!PeaceLily: hooray for de-stress. Stress is the worst in general. I hope you can have an easier month and get some downtime. How do you feel about pedicures?
@msmilkshake: where in Europe are you going? I just got back from London, and it was so fun!
@Cole: how are you feeling now? I got so sick at 12 DPO last time, too. I feel like I would know by then, but who knows?! Every pregnancy is so different.
@littleblessings: The picture is cut off for me, too. Can't wait to hear your updates!
@Bibliolove: ooh, gardening. I miss gardening in our apartment. What are you growing?
@JennyPenny: oh geez, that does sound exhausting. FX that it worked! And I hear you on the symptom spotting. It's coming over here, I know it.
@LaughLines: girl, it sounds like Europe is the
spot for you! Where are you going in Italy?@abbydabbydoodlebug: hi friend! Hoping that this summer brings you good luck. Glad to see you on here!!
@Revel: weird cycles are the worst. I've been spotting off and on this cycle, and it totally messes with me. Where will you head on vacation?
@MrsB2012: thanks!!
@dc yoga bee: hi there!! Good luck this month!!
K, think I'm caught up now. Can't believe I'm back on here!
-
I caved and tested this morning hoping to be as lucky as @littleblessings - bfn
Oh well, its just 6dpo so I really shouldn't have expected anything. I think it actually will make it easier to hold out till 9dpo for DHs birthday.
-
@JennyPenny: 6dpo is way too early! Hoping you get your bfp soon!!!
@LovelyPlum: Thank you! July does seem like a good month
Good luck to you too!
-
@LovelyPlum: So excited to see you on here!! My DD is 29 months.
I would've TTC earlier, but I didn't want to be pregnant on our vacation, plus I needed to get health stuff situated before. to you!!
-
I was getting discouraged last month so didn't join the POAS thread, but here I am again!
Cycle Day:
TTC Cycle: 5
Ovulation Date: 7/13 if I O on the same day as last cycle
POAS Date: 7/27
Baby #: 2
What's up this month: Second month using OPKs, have had long cycles and O'ing later than I would have expected so I'm hoping that now I'm peeing on sticks that we'll have better luck. I'm surrounded by too many super fertile friends and feeling sorry for myself! Trying not to compare though and having a ton of fun with LO this summer.
For Fun - Summer Plans?: Surviving the heat! LO is getting her birthday present early this summer with a balance bike and I'm excited for her to try it out. Also trying to get her in the water more, just got her a puddle jumper and a life jacket. Planning a beach trip for our anniversary. -
@LovelyPlum: peppers, beans, tomatoes, carrots and leeks for veg! Flowers and herbs for the rest.
My basil is proving to be a water-hungry beast, I've already got one batch of pesto in the freezer from it though, so I'm happy!Well today or tomorrow is O-day for me, it has been pushed further back again this cycle. I've noticed whenever I take Rainbow light prenatals, I have longer cycles due to later o days. I think it's the high DV of b-6.
-
Had a Drs appointment today to confirm. They were surprised to get a positive result this soon.
-
@littleblessings: awesome news! Congrats!!!
My temp took a decent dive today at 7DPO so I'm hoping it's an implantation dip. Now I'm gonna be keeping a crazy eye out for some spotting too.
-
@lovelyplum I'm going to Amsterdam, Cologne, and Paris! I can't wait! I'm so glad to have travel plans to distract me from all this waiting...
-
@littleblessings: congrats!
@LovelyPlum: heading to the Jersey shore. I can't believe I'm here either, my first LO was a surprise so this is a whole new world to me, plus, 2 kids, yikes!
@Bibliolove: interesting you said that about the Rainbow Light prenatal. My long cycles have gotten a bit weirder the last few months and I'm at the end of a bottle of 90 RL prenatals, had been taking something different prior. Hmm.
)
to me!! I noticed we Oed around the same time so you're totally tempting me to POAS early...
I have a 27 month old DD.
