@Mrs. Toad: the test today was much more obvious. Obviously stark white haha.
I don't have any FRER's left, so if I don't get AF tomorrow, I'll buy one on my work break on Tuesday. However, I've always gotten really early BFP's so I have a feeling I'm onto cycle.. 8 or whatever I'm up to now.

@MrsB2012: @MrsB2012: @Winnie13: Thanks for the good thoughts ladies!
But, I started to spot Saturday morning. It stopped early afternoon and was gone for a full 24 hours. So I went to pick up a test before we went to my grandmothers for Mothers Day, as soon as we got home tonight at seven I planned to go POAS, but it started again, and it doesn't seem to be spotting.... so I think I"m out

@MrsB2012: That sucks, I'm sorry. I hope that you're still in it. It's not over until AF shows her ugly face!
@Mrs. D: So sorry to hear that! I hope next month will be better luck for you.
@babypugs: Yay! Congratulations!! You must be so very happy!!
I am most definitely ovulating now. I hope the next two weeks go quickly. I was pretty upset last night because I have this pain, sex is really painful. Luckily DH was patient with me though. It's nice to know when I ovulate, but man does it hurt. My doctor said I'm just one of the lucky few who really feels the pain.

I am pretty confident I o'd late last week, but I wasn't consistent with opks, so I'm not 100% sure. I'm definitely in another long cycle though, but I don't think it will be quite as bad as the last one (almost 60 days). I think after this cycle I'll put in a call to my doctor to see what is going on. 5ish week cycles are normal for me, but this extra week or two (or three) is a new development and pretty frustrating!

@babypugs Congratulations!!!!
I guess I am jumping in, even though at the moment I'm straddling the May/June line....
Cycle Day: 5
TTC Cycle: 4
Ovulation Date: next one will be around the 29th, I think
POAS Date: in June!
Baby #: 1
What's up this month: This month is going to be a tense waiting game - my cycles aren't super predictable), and I have a bunch of travel for work around when I'll be ovulating. I will see my husband in the middle of the travel, but I won't know until then how close it is to O-day. (Annoyingly, I'm reasonably sure I'll be in the ballpark enough to go into full TWW mania, but it may not be close enough that I feel like we had great timing.)
For Fun - What are you doing for Mothers Day? Not much - sent gifts to mom/MIL/grandmothers, talked to them on the phone. My husband bought me flowers, in part because we're having a dinner party later this week, but I think in part because he knew I was a little down (we had near-perfect timing last month, so my hopes were up about being pregnant).

@babypugs: Congrats! That's awesome!!
@Winnie13: @Shizaz: It's over this month, but thanks
We've been trying for this one since October. I got pregnant on my second cycle trying with my first two, so this is getting difficult. We went through a couple months where we tried to ease off about it, and were hoping if we just took it easy, that it might happen. I've been totally weaned since January, we thought that might have been affecting it, but having been weaned for 4 cycles now, I don't think that's it. I'm not sure what to do next. I don't temp as I work an odd schedule, and with 2 toddlers, it's not that accurate anyways. I use OPK to confirm O, but I know my body well enough I know when I'm O'ing. Should I make a Dr appt? Is 8 months long enough that they'll do anything? Or should I wait closer to a year?

@MrsB2012: You could be me!
We've been trying since October as well, for #2. In our case I am 36, so I have already made an appt with my doctor for our next steps. If you are still young, I believe they recommend waiting a bit longer before you worry. But there is NO harm is contacting our doctor and seeing what they think.

@Mrs. D: sorry you've been trying for a while now too. I'm 31, so I should still be in the good age range. I guess I'll talk to my husband a bit more and then maybe just ask the dr what she thinks.

@Smurfette: @Winnie13: @nana87: Thank you!
@Shizaz: Ugh, I'm sorry. I'm glad your husband is supportive.
@MrsB2012: @Mrs. D: I also started trying in October and had been off of birth control for over a year. I was starting to wonder if I should call someone too--I hope you both do what feels right for you, but I also hope you don't lose hope.

@MrsB2012: we are in a similar boat. we've been trying since December, I weaned my daughter fully a couple months ago hoping that would help. I'm having super long cycles and had a CP two cycles ago. my cycles have been really long too (36-58 days). we got pregnant the second cycle we tried with our first, so I guess we were naively assuming it would happen as fast the second time!

@babypugs: Congratulations! !
@MrsB2012: Sorry to hear that. Hopefully next month will be the one.
I tested with an expired test (expired in November). It was positive; do I need to get an unexpired test? I am still in shock. I thought I was out for the month.
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
@Mrs. Toad: I would. I took an expired test years ago when my period was late. I was on the pill and it was positive, but I went and bought new ones and it was negative. But fingers crossed.

@Smurfette: Thanks, I'll get one later this evening. I won't be able to test until late tonight.

So, I definitely won't be POAS anytime soon! I had my follie scan on Monday and they still aren't mature! I had to order another round of injections. I go back on Friday. Praying we can get ready for our IUI on Monday or Tuesday next week!! I'll know more Fri!

AF was due today at the latest and nothing. Another yesterday. I'm so annoyed. Seems like this will be a random long cycle best case scenario, doomed pregnancy with slow rising hcg worst scenario (how my first pregnancy ended at 7 wks). Sigh.

My OPKs just started getting dark. Im cd 12 right now and usually O arounf the cd14 or 15. I have no idea if my MC threw my cycle off, but can you put me down for poas date of 5/28? Good luck everyone!!!!
kiwi / 501 posts
@Mrs. D: So, I won't POAS until June! It's looking like, God willing, my IUI will be either Fri or Sat. Praying my follies behave and I'm ready to trigger on Wed.! Hoping to see some BFP for the rest of the month!

I'm a bit of a lurker but can I join in??
Cycle day: 17
TTC cycle: 1-ish? We've been ntnp
Ovulation date: 5/15
POAS date: trying to hold out to the 27th
Baby #: 2. DD is 2.5
What's up this month: I didn't know it was possible to be more TTC crazy the second time around! I'm only 2 dpo and swear I'm bloated and crampy. I may drive myself nuts before its time to test!

AF showed up a week late, sigh. OPKs are ready to go for this next cycle though.

Did I miss any changes?

I ovulated a bit later than I thought I would this month, so I'm about 12dpo today. Took a test (because I have 1-2 symptoms that I remembered clearly from the last time) and got the faintest line. Not sure if it's actually a positive, or if it will result in a chemical pregnancy.... so I'll wait a day or two and test again I guess.
