@JennyG: @Eko: Thanks ladies for commiserating. It's hard because neither of naturally prefer an EOD/ED pace and feeling like we "have" to just sucks all the fun out and it's a million times worse when it just ends up being unsuccessful anyway. I was looking back at my charts and we've BDd at least twice within the O-4 to O range every cycle for seven months. I am starting to really fear something is wrong and it's just becoming such a source of sadness & anxiety.

@angelachase: We definitely had that same problem a couple of times in my last cycle. We have NEVER had that problem before in our entire relationship so I talked to DH about it because I was worried that maybe subconsciously he was feeling unsure about the whole TTC thing. He was super sweet about it and basically said that it just throws him off to be trying to BD all the time outside of our normal routine (we'd be trying to fit it in before heading out to go somewhere or before someone was coming over and stuff - not typical for us). I think maybe it is just a frame of mind thing for guys sometimes.

@Mrs.KMM: That's exactly it, yeah! This has never ever happened before we started TTC. He also said he just feels all thrown off by it. Last night it was after he had worked and then gone to a rehearsal, so we were trying late at night when normally we'd go straight to bed.

@simplyfelicity: amazing! I sure hope this is it for you!
@angelachase: my dh hasn't had this yet, but he got mad about the EOD schedule last month' saying he felt used and that it wasn't special, that I wasn't really in the mood, I just wanted a baby. After a nice long talk he felt better. TTC is rough on everyone.

@Mrs. Microscope: My DH definitely told me he felt used last month and you know what, I can't really argue with him. I think you're totally right with talking about it honestly. DH doesn't get why I'm getting antsy in my pantsy....um, I'm 32 and not getting any younger. I also work in a school and a summer birthday would be ideal.

@simplyfelicity: ooh I want to get on this for this/next month! I was on a board like this on WB back in 2012 when we TTC the first time, love the support. I'm 99.99% I'm out this month (bfn's for the past 3 days, temp decrease, I'm 13ish dpo), and AF symptoms, but no actual AF quite yet.
Cycle Day: 28 (13 or 15 dpo)
TTC Cycle #: 1
Ovulation and POAS dates: I think I ovulated on 10/7, but FF thinks I did on 10/9 based on temp increase
Baby #: 2 (DD1 born in Feb. 2013)
Your plan this month:
October - I knew it was going to be questionable since DH was working night shifts the week I O'd, so we didn't get many BD's in. I also had all expired OPK's & pg tests from last time around, and my thermometer is questionable (almost no battery left, turns off & on every time I try to temp).
Chart Link: Eh, I don't think it's very accurate due to my thermometer issues. I'll post next month.
Hi ladies! Good luck to all you still in for this month!

@angelachase: I just wanted to pop in and say I'm sorry things are rough right now. Have you talked to your doctor about it taking so long? Maybe they'd have some suggestions...?

Have you guys ever peed on sticks and seen shadows for days, but no actual lines? Or taken pictures and seen lines on the camera, but nothing in person?

@travellingbee: Thanks. I'm riding out this TWW (yesterday was O I'm pretty sure) and then yes, we will see a doctor. I'm antsy for him to get an SA done, especially, because I am clearly ovulating every month. I see you had some tough news yesterday too. Big hug.

@mrsjyw: @jaguar: @Mrs. Microscope: @angelachase: @Ashleyf21: @Mrs.KMM: Thanks, ladies. Still feeling numb and guarded about it but I am starting to soften a little. It's going to take a little bit of time. It's not that I don't want to be pregnant it's just complicated after my losses.

@jaguar: congrats!!!!
SO much good news here!!!!
I took another test this afternoon and the line is soo faint, if I wasn't realllly looking for it Id think it was a bfn. Hmmm. I think I'll try to wait till Friday ir Saturday to test again.
@simplyfelicity: of course I noticed no exclamation mark! You deserve this lady!

Got my positive opk today, cd16 so I'm happy this cycle will be shorter than last month, and it looks like my body will ovulate after the chemical. I'm bloating up like normal ovulation so hopefully we can get a sticky bfp this month!

@smocks: Welcome - good luck this cycle!
@simplyfelicity: @jaguar: Congratulations, ladies! So happy for both of you!!!
@Mrs. Microscope: Gearing up to O here too - I think I'll O on Sunday. Let the BDing commence.
And fingers crossed for everyone who still has a shot this month!

@Jaguar that's definitely a positive.. And it's still early so that seems to be a great sign!! Congratulations!!!!!! This month seems to be a great one

Anyone going to start a November board?
My RE was very positive this morning. We are starting a monitored Clomid with TI cycle to see how my body responds. If the clomid gets me to release at least 2 eggs, we'll try this for three months. If not, we'll try injectables. Last resort IVF. I'm feeling hopeful again!

Ugh. So feeling kind of achy/cramping and spotting. I think I'm out, but I'll have to wait and see. @travellingbee: I'll probably be joining you on a Nov board! I'm glad your RE has a great plan for you!

@Reese: How are you feeling, lady? Do you know when your EDD is?
@Mrs. J: Fingers crossed it is just implantation! @travellingbee: I am glad you are feeling hopeful...sounds like you have a very proactive and straight-forward RE. This is great news!
@Ashleyf21: Thank you! How have you been?

@raspberries: Thank you! Wishing you all the luck possible.
@Mrs. Microscope: That's great! My first cycle after CP was nearly 40 days long...so it was either a really late O or anovulatory. Once again, I am so sorry for your loss but I completely understand how good it feels to get back "in the game."
