I might be jumping the gun a little by joining this so early, but I am so excited DH is finally on board!! Please come faster, June!!
Cycle day: 3
Cycle #: 1!
Ovulation & POAS dates: O - probably about 5/28, POAS - 6/8 for now (that's a Sunday, this is news I'd like to have time to digest before work on Monday either way!)
Baby #: 1
Your game plan this month: BD roughly EOD beginning 5/20 or so. Trying not taking it too seriously yet, although I've been off hormonal birth control and charting to prevent pregnancy since late November, so I know my cycle too well to be completely relaxed about this.
Chart link: I just switched from FF to Kindara and I'm not sure how to link my chart from Kindara, anyone know?
-
@Circusbee: we're both jumping the gun.
good luck on your first cycle!! -
Thanks @hellonheels ! From my board-stalking, it seems like the host of the POAS threads always seems to have pretty good luck. I hope that holds true for you this time around!
-
I have a feeling I will be joining as this cycle has been super wonky. Wishing you all the best this month!
-
@Circusbee: thanks! Hoping DH and I can find some time to get it on this cycle... He claims he's prepared to go all out and try for EOD again but he's always too tired in the AM and at bedtime and that will probably be the only time we'll see each other once we're ready to start BDing.
-
I'll be joining y'all soon too. I'm glad the threads get started early so I have something to look forward to once I know I'm "out" for the current month!
But I'm not officially checking in for another few days. My last cycle was too wonky and I'm not really sure what day was CD1. I want a few more days of temping and AF to help me maybe figure that out better. But I should be POAS the first week of June (I think)
-
FX so tightly for all of you!!!
@Circusbee: is right - at least for April and May, @snowjewelz and I started the threads and got our BFPs
Hope the luck continues for @HellOnHeels:, and everyone else who will be joining in the June POAS parade!
-
Cycle day: 8
Cycle #: 2
Ovulation & POAS dates: O 5/20; POAS 6/3
Baby #: 2
Your game plan this month: Try not to get my hopes up.
I'm technically out of town on a business trip for O day and the day before, so we'll "load me up" before I leave on that trip... but my hopes aren't too high this month!Chart link: n/a
-
Is it okay if I peek my head in here? Sort of started trying for #2. Not into TTC 100%, but will still be disappointed with a BFN/want someone to tell if BFP.
Cycle day: No clue
Cycle #: Not really counting yet!
Ovulation & POAS dates: No clue really. Here's the TMI story, DH and I went to Vegas 4/28-5/1 and could have made a baby during that timeframe. My last AF was around LO's birthday of 4/18. I could have ovulated in Vegas, or a few days before (based on CM). If I don't get AF by May 21 I will POAS (eek).
Baby #: 2 (took 9 months of TTC for baby #1, who is now a year old)
Your game plan this month: Waiting to see if I get AF, my cycles are still not entirely regular postpartum and I really don't track them yet either (I temped, tracked CM, did Fertility Friend my first time around).
Chart link: None for now!
-
Can y'all cross your fingers for me?
After 38 days of bleeding, I have a feeling it's finally letting up (well, more than a feeling. TMI, but my last tampon was SO much whiter than they've been in a long time)!
(Yes, I talked to my Dr. about the bleeding. He wanted to see if my hormones leveled themselves out before doing testing).
This month was the month that DH had said he'd be on board with REALLY starting to TTC after our MC in January.
Up until now, I've been monitoring my body...but we haven't been forcing BDing on peak days. It will be SO MUCH easier to look forward to that if I'm not also bleeding at that time!
Plus, our 2 year anniversary falls on what I'm assuming will be O or O+1.
I'm really hoping things are starting to fall into place!
-
@marym: that sounds absolutely horrible, 38 days?? So so sorry and hope your body resolves on it's own very soon so you don't need any scary testing! And so you can do lots of BD-ing this cycle!
-
@cmomma17: Good luck, if its either in May or June!! Keep us updated!
@MaryM: Yikes!! That's insane! I hope it actually is the end for you... Fingers crossed!!
-
@HellOnHeels: thank you
@marym: fingers crossed for you! sounds like you've been through a lot
-
@Circusbee: @HellOnHeels: @cmomma17: Thanks
I think I got my hopes up too soon. After BDing last night, it's picked back up a little again. I'm hoping it's only temporary though (and it wouldn't be unusual...I *am* only on CD4)
-
Man, it's scary to be jumping in on this! But here goes...
Cycle #: 1
Ovulation & POAS dates: O - 6/7, POAS - 6/20
Baby #: 2
Your game plan this month: Trying to stay relaxed since it's early in the game, though I did get an ovulation predictor test (something I didn't do when TTC my first) and am paying more attention to the signs of ovulation.
-
@meredithNYC: how old is your LO #1?
-
@cmomma17: She will be two on the 26th and getting sassier with each passing day, lol. I thought we would be out of the "difficult" stage by now, but as people often say it's just new/different challenges with each stage. At this point, my only big hope is that she is out of diapers by the time the next one comes!
-
@meredithNYC: lol at the sassiness!
My LO #1 is 13 months and that means I'm officially crazy for being here. He's just starting to show a little sass himself, we call it the "terrible 1's" -
@cmomma17: No, no - you're definitely not crazy! I often think that having two so close in age would be kind of great. Sure, I can imagine the difficulty when they're really young, but those days are short in the grander scheme of things, you know?
-
Since AF decided to visit a full week early, looks like I'm headed to this board.
Cycle day: 1
Cycle #: 4
Ovulation & POAS dates: O date June 9, POAS June 20
Baby #: 1
Your game plan this month: Prenatals, charting, OPKs , BD 2 days on 1 day off then ED as OPKs approach fertile window. Other than that, I'm not sure. I'm really bummed over last cycle and not sure if I was to bother with supplements and extra stuff this round.

-
@drjolene: I'm not sure if it's possible but perhaps you are BDing too much? Maybe space it out a little in the beginning. Just a thought.
-
@littlek: It's certainly a thought, but honestly, that's just our normal schedule LOL. And it's cut back in the last few months. It's a very busy house, what can I say LOL. Might have to tell the hubby we should cut back to EOD.
-
@drjolene: I'm just thinking it might help with the sperm count. So, maybe BD and then take 2 days off at the beginning and then BD all you want once you get to around O-2. Just save the power swimmers for when it matters... just a thought..
-
Yay this board is picking up!
Welcome @meredithnyc and @drjolene !
-
@meredithNYC: yay!!! exciting!! My LO turns 2 at the end of the month.
-
@drjolene: boo sorry you have to join us! FX for you this cycle!
I'll get that roll-call started tonight when I can get on a comp.
AF is pretty much finished for me except for the leftover brown stuff, so hopefully DH and I can start getting busy tomorrow! -
June POAS Roll-Call:
6/3 - Marzipan
6/6 - HellOnHeels
6/8 - Circusbee
6/20 - MeredithNYC, drjoleneTBD: cmomma17, marym
Cheerleaders
: faithfertility
-
Ok. I think I'm ready to officially join up. It may change though since I'm so unsure of when AF started
Cycle day: 6 (I think)
Cycle #: 4
Ovulation & POAS dates: O May 25. POAS June 8
Baby #: 1
Your game plan this month: More BDing. We're supposed to be moving from NTNP to TTC this month...so I'm hoping DH will be on board with more of an EOD schedule come O week (plus it's almost our anniversary, so we should be doing it more anyway, duh). And I'm hoping his work schedule might work out to make that easier too. He manages a bar, so we don't ever know until week of what his schedule will be.
To help matters along on the BDing front, I've been shaving my legs every day. lol And I've stopped going to bed in sweat pants. If I'm pantsless and we're not super exhausted, it pretty much guarantees BDing.
I've been on Mucinex all week because of super bad allergies, so I'm considering staying on it through O just in case it'll help things.
I also got some digital OPKs so I can confirm the cheapy strips.

Speaking of my allergies...does anyone know if hydrocodone/codeine cough syrup could affect my cycle?
I'm not planning to take it for much longer (hopefully) and only take one dose a night, but then I started getting worried that it could dry up mucous or affect ovulation.
-
Haha @marym I've been shaving my legs more too, just since the weather is finally nice!! But I guess it helps with the more BD thing too
also we are POAS twins!
-
If I didn't already want to be a cheerleader, this comment put me over the edge:
"If I'm pantsless and we're not super exhausted, it pretty much guarantees BDing." - @MaryM:
HA!
-
What can I say, it doesn't take much to keep my husband happy
-
@MaryM: I was about to get in the shower this morning and my husband asked if I wanted to BD because I was "already halfway there." I told him if he thought that being naked was "halfway there" I wasn't interested in what he was selling.
-
Bahahahaha
-
LOL @MaryM: & @BakerBee: tooo funny.
-
@littlek: How have you been handling morning sickness and tiredness with a nearly 2 year old? The thought terrifies me, lol!
-
@cmomma17: no, you are definitely not crazy! My little guy is just about to be 10 months and I've been wanting another since he was born! Lol
Cycle Day: 1? I'm spotting so maybe I haven't quite started.
Cycle: #6
O Date: wanky. It's all over the place.
POAS DATE: June 10 maybe
Baby: #2!!!!I guess I'm using opk's this month and drinking grapefruit juice and taking mucinex. I did Those things the month I got preggo last time. FINGERS CROSSED!
