    @MamaCate: you are temping after the act of BDing?

    @Crystal: well it sounds crazy when you put it like that but yes. what was happening is DH was coming home around 4 am and we did a quick BD then I went back to sleep and temped when my alarm went off at 5:30 or 6 as usual. I tend to just temp in less than ideal circumstances and go back to discard if needed, but there was so much else going on last week (alcohol, travel, etc) that I would practically need to discard the whole week. So I am not sure what to do. Do you chart? Do you trust temps or cm more?

    @MamaCate: I trust them both, but it's hard when they conflict. If I were you, id look more at my cm than anything else...

    lol, that makes sense. I thought you were saying you BD, then temp right after. I was going to say, ummm, that's not quite how it works.... Lol

    @MamaCate: It is so frustrating when the chart isn't clear. I would go more by CM than temps when in doubt. My rule is at least every other day until you are sure you ovulated. Kudos to your dedication.

    I'm probably 7DPO, but possibly 9DPO. I am trying not to symptom stalk, and trying to convince myself that this is not the month so I don't disappoint myself.

    @DC yoga bee : OH. MY. GOSH!!! I am so happy to see those lines! Awww, did I mention how much I love success stories on this board? Yall are my people! I love that you were posting that while sitting next to your DH and he didn't know. Eek!

    @nicole112: I'm sorry girl. I know that feeling. It's hard because we just want it so badly, but can't seem to get there. I've realized from church messages and listening to wise people in my life that God is not saying No to us, he is just saying yes to a better plan... whatever and whenever that may be. Hugs, Friend!

    I got a bfn.... Kinda expected, cause my temps are dropping (first month charting). I only tested because I am going for an X-ray today but still...*sigh
    Now I really want AF to start (already 1 day late) as I am going on a girls trip to an aqua parc this weekend!

    @busylizzy111: I'm so sorry. FX for a speedy AF!

    @organicmama: how are you doing, friend?

    I try so hard to have faith, but it's so hard sometimes. It feels like if shouldn't be this difficult.

    @Crystal: your fx worked
    I'll count on you to cross your fingers for a bfp next

    @busylizzy111: FX for a bfp for both of us!!

    I just hate this some days- it feels like going through a really bad breakup month after month.

    @busylizzy111: thanks, Friend. I'm just having a grumpy day.

    @Crystal: Sending hugs!

    My very annoying SIL invited me to her sister's baby shower. I have never liked baby showers, and this really annoyed me. While I have met her several times, we have never had a meaningful conversation, and haven't seen her in about a year. They don't know we are TTC. I don't know if my annoyance is reasonable or not.

    @AmeliaBedilia: That does seem annoying! I would expect the shower to be for family and close friends...inviting every person you know makes it seem more like a present grab than a celebration!

    I have been offline for a few days, hope everyone is doing well! 7dpo here (and 7dpiui) just trying to keep busy until testing or AF. AF is expected on Tuesday and if I can make it past then I will test

    @AmeliaBedilia: Ugh, I'm sorry love! I'd probably politely decline…sorry I'm too busy organizing my sock drawer that day…darn.

    UPDATE: I went for a beta today…..they called me with the results and unfortunately, bfn. I'm okay though! I took a hpt yesterday and it was neg and I'm really trying to keep a positive outlook on everything. Next cycle is lucky 13 with first cycle with Clomid! I'm very excited to start the Clomid (not the possible side effects…but I'll do whatever I need to do!) Moving forward……

    @nicole112: hugs! I have a good feeling for you this upcoming cycle.

    My temp went up today and I am starting to get a little excited. Today is probably 10DPO and our anniversary, but I think I am going to hold off on testing a little longer. My temp has done this once before and after a few excited days, it dropped and AF came.

    @AmeliaBedilia: happy anniversary! Fx this is a good sign, but maybe just focus on your anniversary today & then tomorrow can be back to deciding whether to test.
    @nicole112: sorry for the , fx for you, too for one next month!
