Hi girls! Today is my first day on hellobee I'm loving it so far!
Cycle day: 28
Cycle #: 1st cycle with clomid
Ovulation & POAS dates: I think 6/17 and ff is telling me to test on 6/25 but that seems pretty far away! I normally have cycles ranging from 26 days one month, to 38 the next so who knows
Baby #: hoping for #1!
Your game plan this month: trying to make sure I keep eating healthy and taking my vitamins while waiting to test. If this month isn't the month for me, I'll likely start a second round of clomid if my US shows that my ovaries are doing okay this week good luck to everyone!!

@TTCbabyP: Welcome! I have ridiculously varying cycles too - I'm supposed to O tomorrow, so here's hoping for both of us!

@As Time Goes By: I have a pretty inconsistent wake time but I still find temping helpful and have been able to see a clear thermal shift to confirm O.
My normal wake up range is sometime between 5:50 and 8am. I just grab my thermometer and temp as soon as I am awake enough to reach for it. If I sleep in on the weekend, I temp before I get up to pee (my bladder clock almost always goes off by 8 even if I go back to sleep right after).
You can see my chart here http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/4c6b31
I told FertilityFriend that 7:15 is my normal wake-up/temp time. So, the solid circle temperature points were taken sometime between 6:45 and 7:45 -- all of the open circles were taken earlier or later.

@kelleeleee boo. Sorry to hear that you are out. Hope you treat yourself to something to make you feel better. On to the next month (see you there!)

@TTCbabyP: this is my first cycle of clomid, too! did your doctor have you come in a week after O for blood work? I was supposed to, but ended up traveling for work so i couldn't. the doc said we can do it next month (unless i get my BFP this time!)

@LaughLines: I actually had to do my bloodwork before starting Clomid and now I have to do an US on cd30. The bloodwork date was so confusing bc my doc was trying to plan it around my ovulation and we didn't know exactly when it was or IF I was! I'm hoping that we both get our BFP so we don't have to start another round!!

@raspberries: Thank you!! And I hope you O tomorrow and that all your timing is perfect and results in a BFP!!!

@TTCbabyP: What would you like your "official" POAS date to be? You originally put down 6/17 and just realized that is today.
coffee bean / 33 posts
@simplyfelicity: oh woops! I meant to put my ovulation date was 6/6 (it was cd 17) Today is cd28 so I'll stick with 6/25 for my official date even though it's years away

@intotheocean Congrats, belatedly! Haven't been able to make it onto the boards in the past few days. so excited for you!
@Marym @KelLeeLee I used to temp but fell out of the habit and have just been using CM/CP for avoiding fertile times until now. You've sold me on temping again if/when we try next cycle.
Also @KelLeeLeee I'm sorry you're out this month, but I bet next month will totally be your month! FX!!
@TTCBabyP Hello and welcome! I'm pretty new here myself.
16dpo here, CD28 and expecting AF today. Who knows, we'll see what the day brings. There might have been a super faint line on a cheapie test this morning, but I am really bad at seeing the colour red so I'm not sure. If AF doesn't show I'll test again tomorrow. I halfway feel like she's about to come, but my CM and CP is not what it usually is right before AF. If I'm out this month I'm definitely temping and using OPKs next month so I have more certain info.
Hope everyone else is well!

Do any of you ladies know of anyone who has had success using Preseed ? I'm going all out this month as it is my dreaded 12th cycle TTC and am really hoping for a miracle.
pear / 1697 posts
Temp is still up and no signs of AF yet. again this morning, or *maybe* a super faint squinter. I took a pic, but I can't really see it in the picture, so I think it is more likely that I'm hopelessly optimistic than knocked up.

@Tam: I did! I tried for four cycles, and got pregnant on the fourth cycle when we switched to preseed. I've heard lots of other people have had success with it as well. To be honest though, I think our success had more to do with good timing than the preseed but it was probably more of a help than the regular lube we used before.
@lilyofthewest: I can't see anything but I'm on my phone so I will look again later on the computer. If you see a line, there probably is one there! I didn't realize how hard it was to take a picture of a squinter until I had to do it myself!

@lilyofthewest: I don't really see anything, but then again I think I might?

@Aria: I've still got odds on me seeing things that aren't there. But, I'm going to retest after work.
nectarine / 2465 posts
@Tam: I haven't used it, but I know a lot of people who have and it worked for them. I've used Conceive plus in the past (not really around ovulation though) and that has worked for a lot of people as well.

BTW - I will still be on this board cheering everyone on, but if any rollovers want to come join me on the July thread, I just posted it

@KelLeeLeee: @Aria: Thanks Ladies. This is my last cycle before I go to the doc. Really hoping this is it.

@Tam: We only tried for three cycles, so take this with a grain of salt, but for the second and third cycles we used Preseed, and I got pregnant on the third cycle. I tried a lot of other things too, but I figured it didn't hurt!

@Tam: I bought pre-seed but haven't used it yet. best of luck to you!

@KelLeeLeee: Thanks Kel! I was wondering when the next month would start up for those who are already out.

@lilyofthewest: I can't tell, but my fingers are crossed for you!
I am out. Period arrived a few days early and though I'm sad, I figured I will console myself by being able to have a drink on my b-day (6/23)
honeydew / 7811 posts
CD 30 here and no AF yet! Was feeling a little crampy this morning. Feeling 1/2 hopeful and 1/2 out. No symptoms. No idea when O was. Cycles have ranged from 28 days to 38 days in the past, with 32 as the average.
Happy hump day to all!

@meredithNYC: oh no! I'm so sorry I might be joining you in July. Enjoy that drink girlie and happy birthday!

@MaryM: @KelLeeLeee: I may have bought a thermometer while at the drugstore for a totally different reason...
It's funny because I have been able to relax (aka not be totally OBSESSED) this month, but I figured just because I bought it doesn't mean I have to use it right away!
apricot / 346 posts
@lilyofthewest: interesting I thought it was very particular about wake up times. I figure I can give it a try and if it doesn't work out then I bought a thermometer since we didn't have one in the house!
