Re: TTC Tuesday

  • TTCers:

    Cycle/Month: 5

    CD/DPO: CD1 :((

    W2O or 2WW? W2O

    Testing plans: none yet

    Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: is 8 am on a snowday too early to drink? Cramps were so bad last night they kept me awake. I think I'll give myself until H gets home to be sad. Maybe I'll just stay in bed and finish this book.

    Also before af truly started, I put my temp in. It was as low as the day before... Normal for 12/13 DPO. Then FF took my ch away! I had 2 high temps in the beginning from not sleeping well (I noted it), then 2 low temps after I o'd. One dip in normal for me... Idk. So I planned to play with it, but when I added af they came back.

    Dear FF - don't scare me with I didn't o the second month of temping!

  • Pregnant Girls: How many weeks: 8 weeks 5 days
    How are you feeling? Feeling somewhat better. The constant nauseous feeling seems to be letting up a little. Boobs only slightly sore and I think I finally slept most of the night.
    Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Question for the pregnant ladies or mommies ... Did your symptoms seem to change ? I can't help but think something is wrong since I'm starting to feel better?! I know it's crazy to think but I'm really just so nervous about all of this.
    One a different note my sister in law went to the dr and based on LMP we are due 2 days apart!!! That might change slightly when she has her U/S but we are so excited to be so close :-)

    Yup, totally changed. Some days I would feel awful, headachy, nausea, tired. Some days, I felt relatively normal. Totally normal for symptoms to come and go! Hooray for sleeping better, that has been the hardest part for me.

    I use OPK's and they work really well for me.  It's just the generic little tube of 20 wands from CVS.  If you're doing eod though you're probably good, but for me it's reassuring to see a positive opk each cycle and know that my body is working properly :)  

    ETA: not that people who don't ovulate have improperly working bodies or whatever, I'm just always AMAZED when i get the +'s every cycles, like "wow! it's working!" lol

    Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I started taking OPK's yesterday and didn't get a positive.  I haven't taken one today yet, but I can't help but have this feeling that Clomid didn't work and I still won't O.  I'm scheduled for an US on Friday morning and hopefully I'll see a positive OPK by then.  Trying not to be discouraged.  Still having ST EOD just in case.

    Testing plans: its a wait and see at this point if nothing happens as the chart predicts then I might test

    Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: according to my chart predictor, AF is due Sunday but after last months extra long cycle I dont know if the predictor will be correct. I have had some mild cramping this week.

  • Sorry about CD1 @mana8503!

    TTCer:

    Cycle/month:5/5

    CD:13

    W2O/2WW: W2O

    Testing plans: none

    Rants: nothing really. I think being sick for over a week and effectively f'ing up my temping has actually made this cycle more relaxed because its kind of up in the air. I don't know if I'll have enough non-fever temps to get CHs this month. So all I can do know is just HIO. I'm really hope that I don't get my hopes up in a few weeks though since I could probably test around Christmas. That seems like a heartbreak though.

    The Wondfo HPTs are the faulty lots. I've had no problems with my Wondfo OPKs. I really like them because I get clear +s and they are less than 50 cents so I don't feel bad about peeing on multiple ones a day as my surge gets closer. I'd still recommend them!

    I like using them to have more info even though we are doing EOD. But I don't get much EWCM at all, so once I get a +, I will probably seduce DH that night even if we did it the night before and use an applicator with preseed to hopefully give the swimmers the best chance of getting where they need to go!

    I haven't used the Preseed with the applicator, just where I need it. I think that's what we will try this month and maybe opks next month if we are still trying. I thought a girl posted where water gave her a positive Wondro opk. Maybe I'm wrong.

    I thought that was for the HPTs, but I could be wrong. We use preseed just a lube most of the time, but the applicator is my hand plan this month.

    How many weeks: 30 weeks, 1 day!!!

    How are you feeling? Tired, sciatica here and there.

    Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I cannot even think about doing 12 hour shifts until the bitter end. I'm hoping I can make it to 38 weeks before dropping my hours.
  • I'm now 17 days late.  I haven't had this happen since I was a teenager.  Ugh, I know this is going to end with a visit to the doctor.  I haven't had a doctor look up my hoo-ha in like 2 years, and I was hoping to keep that up until I got pregnant.  I've been testing weekly, all BFNs.  I have a period tracker app that I've been using to track my period since I went off BC.  I'm now logging my daily temp on it every morning.  Hopefully this will help when DH and I start to TTC.

    Did you start temping before you were late?

    Don't get discouraged! You could have (or will) O'd late! It's super annoying and being only a few days "late" one month pushed be to start temping, but there is a good chance you won't need to involve the dr. Keep testing until its 60 days late.

    I read it as she was bailing on yoga to go HIO one more time. Haha

    @linnae939, I know what you mean with taking a break from TB. I've tried unsuccessfully this month, but even a little less has helped. I was on the crazy train last month!!
