Well, I'm out, AF showed up this morning Once again a short cycle... only 22 days when I used to be regularly 26 days on the dot!
And my BBT temp went up today instead of down! so I'm thinking that temping isn't working for me! Either b/c I don't get enough straight sleep or bc I'm just doing it wrong
Good thing is though that my next fertile window is the last week of Sept which is our anniversary.. maybe we'll get a sticky baby as a present???? fx

@Ajsmommy: Sorry to hear that. I feel like you'll have luck on your side next time though! FX!
I'm 7 DPO right now. I have no symptoms and I wish I did. I did have a slight headache the last three days, but yesterday I was really tired from lack of sleep and it was so slight it was probably nothing.
I don't usually have PMS symptoms, other than moodiness now and then. I never have sore breasts, bloating or cramps (not until AF comes anyway). So I don't know if that means I'm not going to have any symptoms when I do get pregnant.
The wait is torture though! I think I might test on the weekend, a few days early because I don't think I can wait a whole week.

@Ajsmommy: Ugh, I'm sorry.
Stark white at 11dpo, i'm almost certainly out. My last two BFPs were strong positives at 9dpo.

@Shizaz: thanks! I hope so. fx
@JoJoGirl: I hope it's still too early for you
@WinterBee: I'll be trying for lots of anniversary BD but every time I try to "plan" it never works out. I'm just hoping we can BD more than ONCE during my fertile window!!
@MrsKoala: thank you.... I'm hoping we all get a bfp soon!!

@Ajsmommy: I'm sorry. Trying many BDs sounds fun for next time!
@JoJoGirl: I got BFN around then followed by BFP a few days later with my DD so it could still be!

I'm jumping in:
Cycle Day: 27
TTC Cycle #: 2 (we were NTNP for a while before that though)
POAS dates: I'm waiting till Sept 22 to test, AF due Saturday
Baby #: 2
A May due date would work out really nicely...DD is starting junior kindergarden next year, so that would give us some transition time to get used to the new baby instead of dealing with new baby and school.

@JoJoGirl: I am all for being pragmatic too - these waits are killer.

@teawithpaloma: @JoJoGirl: I agree! I may put off testing another day because seeing my BFN so clearly white was pretty depressing. Maybe Thursday

@BandDmommy: In the past my wondfos have given me results earlier than FRER! Like 8-9dpo with my last two BFPs. At 12dpo I'm sure I'd see at least a faint shadow of a line, but it was 100% white. Going to try to stop testing and just wait for AF.

@BandDmommy: thanks. I was so delusional that I was KU so soon after my D&C.

@JoJoGirl: sorry Hun hopefully next month is your month!
I'm testing tomorrow super early 7 maybeeee 8dpo. Should I do fmu or an evening hold?)

Well, it looks like you can count me out. I got another BFN this morning. I am, at a minimum, 12dpo, maximum 15dpo. I wasn't quite sure which one of those days I ovulated, though I now suspect I ovulated about 12 days ago. I'm a teacher and this past month was back to school, so lots of changes probably pushed it back. I am just trying not to be too disappointed and remain optimistic for the future.

@Shizaz: I don't put a lot of stock in pregnancy symptoms during the 2 week wait so don't let that make you think you are out. Both times that I got pregnant, I had no symptoms whatsoever.

@MrsKoala: That's good to know, thank you. Although, I am starting to doubt anything will happen based on the week I had. I had very little sleep on Sunday night due to going to bed late, then having a restless husband tossing and turning, and then cats deciding it was play time at 2 am. Then last night I only got 3 hours of sleep as it was a very late night (I worked from home today and have taken 2 naps so far, but I'm still exhausted).
Of course anything is possible, but I think I'll be surprised. I am doing to test on Sunday, although I don't expect AF until Tuesday or so.

I'm out this month. AF showed last night so either my ovulation was earlier than I thought (never got a good positive read on OPKs this past time), or my luteal phase was cut short by 3 days this month On to month 6 I suppose

As for us, things are... not awesome. It's been three days of arguing about TTC because my husband is having issues. We've strategized, we've tried scheduling, not scheduling, talking about it, not talking about it, so on and so forth and it's just. not. happening.
I didn't temp today and I am pretty sure I am not going to bother for the rest of this cycle, at least. I left it in my husband's hands -- he knows what needs to be done, and I can't do any more to help. I got him supplements, he doesn't take them. I've asked what he needs, what he wants to do, and can't get anywhere. He insists he wants another baby but seems to think it will happen through magic. And I don't want to be resentful anymore, so... I have to take a step back. If it happens on its own it happens.
I asked him to book an appointment to test for low T, because he has so many symptoms, and he refused, but he texted me later to say that he booked a 'family planning' appointment for early October. I have no idea what to expect.

@MrsDragon: Hi there. I've been lurking off and on, but just wanted to say hugs and I feel for you. We are also kind of ttc number 2, but it's not exactly happening over here either. I also think my husband might have low T, but he doesn't want to do anything about it and gets upset if I bring it up. Hang in there. I hope things get better for you.

@MrsDragon: I'm sorry you're having a tough time with DH. A family planning session sounds better than nothing though?! Will you go with him?
AFM,I tested early on the 17th (7dpo is my best guess) and today at 9dpo - BFN. I don't think this is our month. I'm pretty deflated because I really just wanted it to happen gain as easily as it did the first time.

Thanks ladies. AF showed up yesterday. Maybe October will be our month.
@MrsDragon: I'm sorry you're going through this. That sounds a lot like DH sometimes. It's like he thinks we don't have to try and it'll just happen on its own. It maybe would if we were BD'ing more!
