    @MrsMcD: woohoo! how are you feeling this month? FX for you! i'm 10dpo today and feeling the same as usual. AF due on friday. only diff for me is that i normally start spotting 3 days before AF around 12dpo, and i actually started brownish spotting on last friday at 8dpo. so that's new, and of course ive been googling like crazy, but also know it's most likely nothing.

    DH and i just realized he is out of town for like 2 weeks during my next O - zone so i guess we'll be waiting on a 2015 baby now can't belive it has taken this long already.

    Poor DH, failed BD attempt tonight he puts so much pressure on himself and it builds every month. I'm trying not to dwell on it too much...We did BD yesterday and there's always tomorrow. I mostly feel bad for him because I know he feels so guilty...

    @buttermilk: I spotted pre-AF the cycle of my chemical. Turns out it wasn't a sign of AF. Talk about messing with your mind!

    @sarahnicole218: great attitude and I'm sure it helps that he doesn't feel any pressure from you

    @buttermilk: Hi lady! I'm 9 dpo!! eeek!! But I feel nothing. No sore boobs.... nothing. Your 8dpo spotting could be really exciting! Has it stopped? Do you think you will POAS early? I won't POAS at all unless AF is late.

    As for trying next month... That sucks you won't have a change to BD, but whatevs really. I personally don't want a Christmas baby. I was thinking about not trying next month on purpose.A good friend is getting married in Maui on December 6th. I was so excited when I heard and wanted to book plane tickets asap until I thought about my possible pregnancies. Ugh... Tough decisions...

    @MrsMcD: has it stopped? hmmmm, it's definitely tapered off, I think haha. we will see today! I hear ya about next month! also my best friend is getting married in Spain in October! I was already planning to come even if super prego but of course nervous about it, so yeah upside is we won't have to worry about that. And we are planning to make a vacation out of it with stops in Lisbon, Paris and London, so I'll have that to look forward to! I hope we both get to go on our trips and then come home and have babies right after!

    @MrsMcD: @littlek: and @Sandy: Thank you for the kind words! It really is frustrating, and it's happened at inopportune times these last few months. I am really upset of course, and I know he is to. I think if this cycle is not successful for us, I'm going to ask my doc about IUI, take the pressure off.

    On a side note, I am having ridiculous pressure/cramping this morning. I don't know if I have yet pinpointed whether that's an indicator that O is imminent or has already happened. Either way, we'll attempt BD tonight. If I already O'd, I'm OK with our timing. Not ideal, and I would have liked more BD, but at least we hit the fertile days twice. If I haven't O'd yet, I really REALLY hope tonight is successful for good measure. I had a temp dip yesterday, with my positive OPK, but today my temp just went back to normal, no spike yet...so we'll see.

    @Sandy: and @LindsayInNy: I hope all went well for you two yesterday!!

    @sarahnicole218: Interesting, I normally get O pains a few days before a positive OPK. Good luck tonight!!! I'd BD just in case.

    Still spotting. Wonder what it means. Prob nothing!

    @buttermilk: brown? red? what dpo are you?

  16. buttermilk

    nectarine / 2086 posts

    @littlek: pinkish brown, mostly brown. I'm 11dpo today and it started at 8dpo. I usually don't start spotting until 12dpo, 3 days before AF who is due on Friday.

    @buttermilk: I wonder if you have a low progesterone issue. If you normally spot before AF. Have you had your progesterone checked?

  18. buttermilk

    nectarine / 2086 posts

    @littlek: I haven't and actually only recently ever started thinkin about that. When I mean I usually spot before AF It's honestly like a change from clear cm to barely tannish cm. Like before I started ttc I never thought I spotted but after paying closer attention I realized the color does change. But is that not normal?

    @MrsMcD: crossing my fingers for you girl! I didn't have any breast soreness until the night of 10dpo with my positive...so you never know!

    @buttermilk: even though spotting is common the ideal should be that you don't have any at all and just start with a full flow. Maybe ask for a 7dpo blood test? Although even then some people have good levels which drop too quickly afterwards.

    I just heard back from my beta... 316! I'm pregnant, fo' sho'.

    I'm 10dp5dt, which I think is the same as 15dpo. Got a long way to go, but we are over the first hurdle!

    @sarahnicole218: I am so sorry - the BD part is so difficult sometimes. It's one of those things that you'd think would be the easiest part, but it often ends up being tough, in reality. You are not alone!

  29. littlek

    GOLD / squash / 13576 posts

    @CupQuakeWalk: Definitely positive!!! Get to it!!!

    @ShayNanigans: Yay!!!!! So happy for you!

    @ShayNanigans: great!! That's wonderful news!

    I got another positive OPK this afternoon, so I don't know what that means. It was lighter than my first positive, if that means anything. I won't count today as O day. If I get a negative, I'll count tomorrow as O day which will leave my poas day on March 25th like originally planned.

    @bhbee: I'm also so exciting that you have a March 31st POAS date!

    @Littlebit: I'm 10dpo and just starting to notice breast soreness. Hope it means something!

    @CupQuakeWalk: Seriously awesome graphics! I hope you are getting busy!!!

    @ShayNanigans: Congrats on the beta counts! You have indeed conquered the first hurdle. I'm so happy for you, mama.

    @MrsMcD: breast tenderness was my one and only symptom pre-bfp.

    @sandy: oh girl, I think you'll be good by Wednesday am! Good luck!

    I'm on my way to take another OPK and hoping it has faded to negative.

    @CupQuakeWalk: Thanks for the encouragement! I'm itching to POAS, but am challenging myself to wait out AF first.

    So when would you guys say I ovulated? Before the positive in the photo were all clear negatives so they are not pictured.
    I am on cd15. So, you do think I O tomorrow or was it today because my first and most clearly positive OPK was yesterday?
