@Claire.Peonies: I think that clear blue digitals were just plain not working in general for anyone this month. I've never trusted them and thing it could be silly for anyone to fully rely on them.
@littlek: Sorry we are both out for this month!
@faithfertility: I hope you were fine during the baby shower. I have one coming up in a few weeks. They used to be so fun... If only we could all have one openly TTC friend with us at each baby shower we attend while TTC. That would seem like not much to ask for!

@littleredhairedgrl: They make me super sleepy, constipation (sorry TMI) and tender breasts. Other than that nothing else that I have noticed.

@MrsMcD: @faithfertility:
I know ALL too well the pain of attending baby showers! Two weeks after my 1st M/C I had to help host a baby shower and now this weekend I am helping to host another one for a friend who is due two weeks before what would have been my due date with my second M/C. This one will be especially tough since I know had I stayed pregnant I would be having a shower soon as well. It's so tough! HUGS!

@whatsarahsaid: How's the progesterone going?! I heard it makes your moods a bit wacky? I think I'm Oing late this cycle. At least I hope that's the case and that I didn't just miss it. I forgot my BBT this weekend during prime time! Ugh.
cherry / 235 posts
@LindsayInNY: I haven't noticed any differences in my mood. But I am a pretty moody person to begin with! lol! Just kidding...kind of!
Did you take your temp this morning?
cherry / 105 posts
@LITTLEBIT Ahhh! So weird to be in the official BFP list!!
So I went to the doctor at lunch and took a blood test. I should have final results tomorrow so Fx!
My best friend+ DH still don't believe me. Luckily, I have you gals.

@whatsarahsaid: Yeah, temp this morning was about the same as Friday and before. I'm missing Saturday and Sunday temps but given that today was pre-O level, it might not matter. I've been using OPKs and faint lines appear but nothing + yet. We've been BDing every day for nothing!
cherry / 235 posts
@LindsayInNY: Ugh...I feel your pain! I'm still not entirely convinced I O'ed this month given how strange my "post O" temps have been. I hate all this uncertainty. Why can't our bodies just cooperate!?
bananas / 9229 posts
@whatsarahsaid: I've had cycles where my + OPK isn't blatently obvious but my temps go up to confirm. What worries me now is the lack of CM. It's usually creamy pre-O to more watery-ish and then dry post-O (or sometimes creamy again). I think I'm dry now? I'm with ya on the uncertainty =/

@whatsarahsaid: you have too many friends. stop hosting the showers..... I"m kidding!!! But Gees... I'm so sorry you are hosting showers on such significant dates for yourself. Stay strong, friend!
cherry / 235 posts
@MrsMcD: Part of me wishes I could bow out gracefully but the one this weekend is for my very best friend in the whole world. It's definitely tough to go through though. I test on Friday morning so hopefully Sunday won't be as difficult cause I will have a recent BFP to keep my spirits up.

@whatsarahsaid: You are such a good friend.Good karma is coming your way!

Good luck to everyone! BD every other day right now, waiting for a positive on my OPK (probably at the end of the week). Really hoping this is the month for us, and for everyone else still waiting to test!

Thank you so much for all your replies!! You all made me so so happy throughout the day.

Tonight is above- this morning is below.

@whatsarahsaid: Awww I am sorry
I feel that it gets more tough not that I am jealous of the one having a baby,but the older I get not saying I am old, or the longer we are married you get the dreaded questions.."When are you having a baby" What are you waiting for"...then when you explain your issues/life they say ohh well when the time is right??? blah blah blah....lol I know it is from good places but it gets old fast!

Thanks for the suggestions about progesterone testing. I will definitely talk to my doctor about it if the spotting continues.
Good news - it was only one little bit on 6 DPO and I haven't had anymore since. I waited awhile to update because I didn't want to jinx myself. Still not feeling that optimistic because my temperatures are kinda trending downward and not very stable. Any thoughts? http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/crunchy1
@whatsarahsaid: you are a saint for hosting all those baby showers, dear! Your turn will be here soon and I'm sure you'll have tons of people that want to help with yours
@LindsayInNY: the BD has not all been for nothing But, hopefully O is just a little delayed this month and you'll get your + and temp rise soon.
@LiliBillie: congrats! Definitely getting darker.
Hope that's just the start of the BFPs this month!

Hi ladies,
Sincere thanks to all for your responses. My temp did indeed shoot up this morning, but I have woken up with the flu and a fever... so it's unlikely to be as a result of normal cycle temp rise.
How typical on the day I was desperately waiting to see what my body would do. Another spanner in the works - seems to be typical on this TTC journey.
Best of luck to all poasers this week!!!! It's so addictive

@LiliBillie: Congratulations! I hope you have a happy and healthy nine months!
@MrsCDH: How frustrating! I hope you feel better soon!
@crunchy1: Fingers crossed for you!

I took my temp this morning and it was at 98.1 so it's definitely dropping, so I'm hoping to be in the average in the next few days once AF leaves me. Funny, I was taking my temp this morning, DH runs into the room and freaks out asking me why I'm taking my temp and making sure I'm okay. When I told him it was for charting, he calmed down and finished getting ready for work. I'm so happy, he's being supporting about TTC. He works a lot and it's nice to know that he is making this his priority instead of always putting work first.

@thismustbetheplace: I'm sorry girl
@littlek: I hear you. It makes TTC so much easier when your DH is on board!
grapefruit / 4649 posts
@littlek: That is so sweet! It is nice to know they are all the way on board. I felt like my husband was still waffling until he said a few things like that.

@MrsMcD: @FaithFertility: @crunchy1: Thanks for the support ladies. I know I'll have a baby shower someday (hopefully soon) and it does feel good to celebrate the women I love becoming momma's. But I'm not going to lie...it's really hard to smile sometimes. I'll get there though...I just know it!

Well, I'm out this month. Got a sneak attack from dear AF overnight. Feeling ok about it though... on to November! Mmmmm, Thanksgiving.

Anyone else get a sick satisfaction when they enter a bunch of things in FF? Hahaha. Entered in BD, CM, opk results, and temp yesterday and it made me feel accomplished I have no idea why! Maybe because it makes me feel like I have a little bit of control over something in the TTC process?? Even though that couldn't be further from the truth!
cherry / 235 posts
@Littlebit: YES!! I always feel a little bit better after I input a bunch of things. You are SO right...it definitely makes me feel like I have a little control.

Congrats to @peacockblue and @LiliBillie !
I'm back in town and ready for the November boards to start (i.e. I'm a rollover). Good luck to the rest of you October ladies!
GOLD / pomegranate / 3938 posts
@Littlebit: You already know I am a FF fiend! I want to start temping just so that I can have something else to do on FF. I wish FF would talk to me. I sometimes read the "info tidbits." I like to think that each tidbit is personalized for me.
@NorCalWayfarer: How was your vacation? I'm so sorry you are a rollover. So am I! So are a few other girls on here. You are in good company, even if its sort of sad company.
