@photomama. It looks like the bottom test is the darkest, but in all honesty I don't know how to read those very well. I used the First Response Ovulation kit for the month and it will either give me a yes or no and then ovulate within the time frame; what is it 12-36 hrs? Hope you are able to get in some BD time tonight if your husband is feeling better.
As for me, I am a bit embarrased on what pregnancy brain can do to a person. Since tomorrow is Good Friday and a stat for me, my day off was supposed to be today so I could have slept in this morning and have an extra long weekend as I don't go back till April 3 (day of my ultrasound). Also, today marks the day my daughter turns 2. Wow, time sure flies by.

Spotting turned into red blood and more of it, so I stopped using the progesterone cream this morning and I'll count yesterday as CD1... I think I had another chemical pregnancy, either that or all the FRERs give second lines now all of a sudden? Good news is if I conceive this cycle my EDD is Dec 30th so I could quite possibly still have a December baby! Here's to hoping!
This cycle I'll be taking 81mg baby aspirin daily, prenatal and folic acid daily, EPO from end of AF to O day, then progesterone cream 2x a day once I ovulate. This will be my first cycle trying EPO - hoping it helps with CM, I noticed last cycle I did not have much CM at all... maybe that's why no sticky bean?
@Beaut1ful38 - looks like you and I are on the same cycle pretty much... I'm CD2 right now and I usually have 27 day cycles and usually O between CD12-14. How about you?
CONGRATS to all the ladies who got their BFP this cycle! Hope to see some more BFPs coming up too!

@photomama - Yay for the solid smiley! I've heard of other women getting the solid right after the empty one too. I'm glad it showed up!
AFM- I'm 6DPO and decided to stop temping for the rest of this cycle. I'm just going to let everything be and hide the thermometers in the bathroom so I'm not tempted.

Hi all!
Bahamamama i am so sorry af came. I was wondering about you. Didn't see you much on here for a day or so. I always needed a few days to get myself in order before i came back on.
Photomama i may be wrong but it always seems to me that my flashing came with the lh surge causing the two lines and the solid came when the estrogen surge came. I think, please dont quote me, that i got my solid smiley when the 2 lh lines plus the little circle part beside the lines turned blue inside. That could be totally wrong about the dye in the circle but i know for fact about the lh and estrogen causing solid smiley.
Just got back from dr. They just confirmed and scheduled a 7 week ultrasound for april 27. So know to just wait it out and pray for sticky beans!

Hey all! Congrats on those BFP'S! I am a tad worried I'll miss my chance to conceive as I didn't realize it's my fertile week and I only have today until Monday! We aren't sure how we are going to try this since our kids will be home all weekend and usually we dtd when they are at school. Trying to get pregnant in your 30's is harder than in your 20's because it seems there is more awareness of fertile week as opposed to my 20's when I just didn't pay attention! Drives me crazy.
