Mother's day is coming! How do you celebrate? Does your family have any traditions?
Good luck to everyone!

Here we go again:
• Cycle Day: 11
• TTC Cycle: Almost too many to count.
• Ovulation Date: TBD
• POAS Date: TBD
• Baby #: 1
As I'm not a mother, we don't celebrate at all, but I'll probably call my mother.

• Cycle Day: ??
• TTC Cycle: 1
• Ovulation Date: TBD
• POAS Date: TBD
• Baby #: 3, I have a 4 year old, 1 year old, and had a miscarriage in between 
I have PCOS and don’t ovulate in any sort of normal fashion. I’ve never conceived without Clomid, but this cycle we’re trying Femara. We did this cycle without Provera to stim a period so I have no idea what “CD” I’m considered. Did Femara 4/8-4/12.
No traditions for Mother’s Day, but this year we are going out of town for the night to LEGOland.

• Cycle Day: 11
• TTC Cycle: 1
• Ovulation Date: 4/30?
• POAS Date: 5/12
• Baby #: 2
After lurking on and off on the POAS boards for the last three years, I (and hubs!) are finally feeling ready to try for another. The last time I was pregnant was 5 years ago and I'm AMA now, so not sure what to expect... I'm a bit nervous and excited at the same time.
No Mother's Day traditions, but we do live near my in-laws and always spend part of the day with them. It'll also be my POAS day, so I'll probably want to get some sort of decadent dessert either way!

I think it’s a positive? Lord have mercy I hate PCOS and the back and forth almost surges!
Yes I am that loser in the Target parking lot looking at OPKs lol

@Mrs.Panda: Getting really close! I usually get a positive later the same day or the next morning after I get a test that looks like that, but I don't know the ins and outs of PCOS...

• Cycle Day: -1 (should start Friday)
• TTC Cycle: Ooof... maybe 8 or 9?
• Ovulation Date: NA, doing IVF transfer likely on 5/16 +/- a day or two.
• POAS Date: 5/23 (7dp5dt)
• Baby #: 3
No Mother's Day traditions yet, but both DH's and my mom live 1.5 hrs away, so we are planning to spend the day with them. A brand new IKEA opened in their town, so I might request that as my activity of choice. I just ordered some framed photo collages on Shutterfly as gifts for both of them. The daycare photos taken last week actually turned out well for once!

And with that, AF has arrived a day earlier than expected, so I'm CD1 today. Can't wait to see my RE tomorrow to try and get a sense of our transfer window. I'm going to clear out my schedule to try and give myself 3 days off around the transfer.
nectarine / 2358 posts
@yellowbeach: That sounds like an excellent plan. Fingers crossed that May brings baby showers! And that picture is beyond precious 
@hony bologna: Negative this morning. Super frustrating. I'll keep testing.

Mother's day is coming! How do you celebrate? Does your family have any traditions?
No traditions. We usually try to get together with my parents for a meal, but no plans yet. DH and I are going to a wedding on 5/11 so LO is staying the night with my folks, so we'll see them on Sunday no matter what. Maybe we'll cook breakfast at their house or ours. Going out always takes for.ev.er on MD.

Hey ladies! I’m so excited to jump back on the board with you all this month!
• Cycle Day: 14
• TTC Cycle: 10
• Ovulation Date: today? I haven’t been using OPK’s but all signs point to O.
• POAS Date: May 10th- I’m only testing if my period is late. I have had 3 chemical pregnancy’s and can’t take the heartache of another.
• Baby #: 2
Mother's day is coming! How do you celebrate? Does your family have any traditions? We always go to my mom’s for lunch and DH’s for dinner, so a busy day for us!

@paranundrum: Thank you!
@yellowbeach: Such a sweet picture!
@Mrs.Panda: Oh man, sorry it's been so frustrating. Are there any other reliable signs for when you ovulate?
Good luck to everyone on the board, fingers crossed for lots of positives this month!
nectarine / 2177 posts
Never done opks before - this first one doesn’t look quite positive does it?
clementine / 811 posts
@Jessiemuller88: Great to have you back! I'll add you to the board.
@maybebaby: Unfortunately not, hopefully the next few days will change that and you'll get a blazing positive.

@yellowbeach: @paranundrum: you guys didn't lose me this time from the looks of it. (Almost got a cat chart too)
clementine / 973 posts
@maybebaby: I would say the top one is close, but not quite a positive.

@yellowbeach: none...
I'm having a great day inspite of looming AF. Lowe's is running a promotion today if you text SPRING to 78133 they text a coupon for $5-$500. I got the $500 coupon!!!

Mother's Day I'm thinking about having a brunch at my house but haven't decided for sure yet.
OK so I'm convinced that I have not O'd yet and adjusted my chart. I've had creamy EWCM the last 2 days and true EWCM thus morning and my temp was still low today. Hoping for a positive OPK in the next day or 2. Already told DH that we need to get it in. I'm so romantic.

@Sams Mom: I tried to text that number and I didn't get anything back. That's awesome you got $500! What are you going to buy?
ETA: it came through. I only got $5. Boo.

@Phillybaby2013: we got a lot of practical stuff we've been putting off for the most part.
Grass seed
Weed and feed
Mulch
Built in kitchen sink soap dispenser
Drain snake
Garage racks and hooks
Towel rack for master bath
LED bulbs
Then I got flowers and dirt for front yard
New area rug
Because pretty
Only had to pay $2.62

@Phillybaby2013: I know! I was so excited because I NEVER win anything!
nectarine / 2648 posts
@Sams Mom: That’s amazing! I’m just now seeing this but was randomly at Lowe’s earlier today and a lady in line told me about the thing. I sent my text but I took about 30 min to come. I only got the $5 but was convinced I was going to win big since I had already given up and checked out.
grapefruit / 4492 posts
@yellowbeach: well that sucks. Sam's babysitter had just spent $40 at Lowe's when I texted her about it and she got $25 after checking out
Still no AF, still no symptoms aside from temp drop. 🤷♀️

@Sams Mom: that’s amazing you won $500! I’d say that’s a good day indeed. I tried and only got $5 too
grapefruit / 4492 posts
@Jessiemuller88: hey maybe that means my luck is changing and I'll get knocked up sooner than later...
A girl can hope

@Sams Mom: That was lucky, I never win anything either. It sounds like you put your winnings to good use too.
How's your temp this morning?
