@Marfi: TTC is so damn glamorous. HA!
-
@BadgerMom: my chart looks like I'm 4dpo but I got a positive opk 3 days ago so who knows. I started vit d again so I'm feeling decently perky and am in the tww beginning where I'm certain it happened this month! Fingers crossed for both of us!
@Marfi: hope they aren't too bad!
-
I had my CD9 monitoring appointment this morning for my IUI. I have two follicles growing on my right and one on my left all around 13mm. Kinda freaking out about having possible 3 follicles. Hopefully no more continue to grow.
@nicollette1189: Any updates on your squinter? I had the same thing happen to me last cycle and it turned out to be an evap line on a FRER. Hopefully that's not the case for you!
@Marfi: How exciting!!
-
@Mrs Lavender: thanks for asking! I took another test yesterday that was a little more positive and two today that have had squinter lines... So we will see!
-
@Mrs Lavender: I'm crossing my fingers that you get 2 nice sized ones! 3 seems overwhelming. When's your next appointment?
-
@Mrs Lavender: That sounds exciting!
@Marfi: So much
to you this month!
-
@nicollette1189: sounds like good news, right? Post your tests!
@Mrs Lavender: that's so exciting that you have 3 healthy follicles, though! -
This is the second one yesterday!
-
These are two from a bit ago ...
-
@MamaBear87: @Ginaandcorey: @MrsMom: Thanks! I'm definitely feeling overwhelmed. My RE did warn me that I could possibly have 3-4 but I figured I had to take the chance and see for myself. I was really hoping for just 2 since I only had 1 with the lower does of letrozole. Ugh, just feeling nervous. MamaBear, Most likely Sunday or Monday. I'm waiting for my afternoon call. Edit: Next appointment is Monday morning.
@nicollette1189: I can see a faint line on the first pic! The other two are kind of hard to see. Crossing my fingers for you!
-
Negative opks still at cd12. Not super surprising, last month was the first time I’ve ever Oed on cd14, usually it’s a little later, but dh and I have been bding for a few days already and I’m tired
-
@nicollette1189: I see a faint line on the first one and maybe a line in the bottom test on the second one. Keep testing!
-
@nicollette1189: I see a possible faint on the first one too! Test with an frer!
-
Month 6 of trying. You download a new app and put in temps because that will magically make it more apparent when you ovulated
@LAZB: the scheduled sex is the worst!
-
@MamaBear87: agree about scheduled sex. I actually hide the opks from my husband and try to make it seem not to scheduled. He is aware somewhat of timing but trying hard to make it seem like i actually just want to have sex and not that it's only a necessity.
I think im about 8dpo today although maybe 7. I peed on a cheapie today and totally a bfn but know its still super early. Maybe try again tomorrow or wait till Monday and try an frer then.
Anyone only use cheapies early? I know its probably counter productive by like 11dpo when the frer would be more sensitive.
-
@FoolsintheRain: i hear lots of ladies do this but honestly that just makes it worse for me. I don't feel I should carry all the stress of ttc.
I just wait until I'm late now. Odds are the cheapies will be negative and I hate looking at the negatives
-
Opk getting close! Maybe tomorrow
-
@LAZB: time for more BD!
-
@nicollette1189: done and done lol
-
@MamaBear87: yeah... Multiple apps just make your crazy multiply. Speaking from experience...
@LAZB: excellent! Soon you can rest! -
Definite negative opk today 🤔 I’ll take another this afternoon, I really think I should have a positive today.
-
@LAZB: my surge is really short so if you only tested yesterday morning you may have missed it.
@Ginaandcorey: I'm currently feeling more zen about this cycle so well see as the tww goes onbut I feel better doing something and I've got labs planned as well as the acupuncture.
-
@MamaBear87: nope, it was lighter yesterday morning and the pic I posted was yesterday afternoon. It’s possible that it could have been positive last night I guess...
-
Definitely nowhere near positive today, so either I had a quick surge last night or I geared up, but didn’t O. I’ll keep using opks to see what happens, which will help with my poas fix anyway lol.
-
@LAZB: argh thats frustrating. Looks so close. I wonder if you had tested again a few hours later if it would have been positive. Will you keep testing?
-
@MamaBear87: totally get that.
-
@FoolsintheRain: ill test at least a few more days. I just ordered more opks so I don’t run out lol
-
@LAZB: Do you usually get glaring positives? I know some people only tend to get *close* on opks, but still seem to be ovulating based on other signs.
-
So today's *probably* unnecessary worry/obsession is unstable progesterone. My charts just seem to be way more "bouncy" in the LP than they were when I was ttc DS. They stay above cover line so I know it's probably nothing, but I'm not feeling too good about this cycles as my chart is panning out exactly like my last cycle.
-
@BadgerMom: this is exactly why I'm getting blood work if this cycle doesn't work out! I hate worrying that something could be wrong. Although my chart is different than last month so I'm crossing my fingers so hard!
@FoolsintheRain: we've now been trying 6 months too so my hubby is also feeling a bit worried/disappointed anyway
@LAZB: I'm a bit sad that I'm hoping to give up the opks if I don't get preggo this month. Peeing on them is fun
-
@LAZB: my first cycle using OPKs I had several close ones over the weekend, negatives Monday and Tuesday, strong positives Wed and Thurs. it was really weird.
-
@BadgerMom: no, I’ve never had a glaring positive, either Close to or equal. I definitely have gotten darker than the one I had this month though
@Ms.Mermaid: yep, I’ve heard of that, although it’s never happened to me. I’ll keep testing just in case -
@MamaBear87: remind me why you will give them up? Is this like you're giving up POAS for lent or something?
-
@Ginaandcorey: oh no. Not catholic over here
-
@MamaBear87: I think giving them up would be more stressful! But that’s just me
-
@LAZB: @MamaBear87: I agree! It's so nice to know when it's happened and when you can stop having sex already!
-
@LAZB: I'm charting though so once I have a sustained rise I know I've likely o'd. Hubby likes minus the opks better because we usually have a few days of extra sex
-
I went ahead and entered my almost positive opk as positive into fertility friend, I couldn’t stand letting it be open 🤣
I’m still going to take opks for a while, so I can always change it. We skipped dtd today, and my opk was super light, so hopefully that doesn’t come back to bite me lol -
Do you all track every single symptom you may think is important or do you just track things like cm and aches/pains?
-
@Ginaandcorey: if I was just doing opks I'd be concerned that I only geared up and then didn't actually o so I usually do extra days of sex anyway
I track cm, usually only through o though and then cramps/pain. Progesterone causes most tww symptoms so you can have them pregnant or not
@LAZB: eod is basically same odds so you should be fine even if you haven't o'd yet
