Hi ladies! :)

Blushingtc: Glad your procedure went well!!

Acrichton: Your numbers look great!! Woohoo!! :)

AFM: I've been taking OPKs and think I may finally have a positive. The one I took today at 2 PM looked positive. Then I took one at 11PM and this one looks darker! Would love your opinions! All images are listed under my name if you go to my profile. :) Thanks!! I hope you ladies have a wonderful weekend!!! :)

12dpo. Temps too high for that witch to show up today =)

Blushing great news!

Afm not itching .. ugh. Must have been from shaving lol

Heading out for grocery shopping n trying to stay bz to keep a sane mind!

Kot how r u?
Rebecca?
Acri?
Christi?
Everyone else?

@acrichton - I don't know why they told you cramping is abnormal. That doesn't make sense to me. Cramping is incredibly common in first trimester, as there is a lot of stretching going on in there. I could understand if you were having severe one sided or something. But even with one sided cramping, ovarian cysts are common as well. I hope they didn't stress you out too much over that. If it's cramping with red blood, that's not good.

How far along were you with your miscarriage? I know that's always a looming date to try to get past. Your numbers are so great! So how far along are you? Are you going back on Monday?

AFM, I would guess today I'm about 7 DPO, but I'm not entirely sure when I ovulated, with the miscarriage as my flow, it might have been off a little. However, I got positive OPK's last saturday and sunday I believe, and maybe even on Friday? I can't remember - it might have been Friday/Sat. Anyway, the point is, I don't have a single test in the house. I'm not really feeling anything, other than being emotional, but I think that's due to everything going on with us this year. (two miscarriages, robbery, etc) So, I think I'm going to wait until AF is overdue to test, which will likely mean I won't need to test since she will probably arrive.

Sorry this is so long. APparently I'm wordy today. I'm getting Boudoir pics done today for my DH for Christmas!!!

Blushing - so glad you had a good appointment! It sounds like things went really well. Do you have a recovery period from the surgery, or are you ok to return to your normal TTC schedule and daily life? I'm interested in seeing what my temping might reveal, especially in conjunction with the monitor and my own observations.

Sugar - Relaxing while TTC is always a good idea...it's just sometimes easier said than done!

GV - Sorry your itching stopped. (Ok that was totally weird but you know I meant sorry as in you were taking it as a good sign. I'm NOT wishing a yeast infection on you! )

Kizzy - girl!

Hi all! Gosh..ZUmba was fun! 3hours of continuous working out sure is making my stiff body aching yet feeling relax.
While peeing into a container to test for ovulation earlier, I see "white floating patch" in the pee.... not sure if its CM, cos I was already peeing ( TMI!! Oops )
It turned out negative I supposed, I have uploaded the image in my HPT images, maybe ladies here can help me with the interpretation?
I know its lighter than the test line, but yesterday and the day before Only test line and very very very faint line appeared. Does this means the surge is building up? Given that I probably O-ed on CD12/13 last month?

Rebecca- Yes, its easier to be said than done- RELAX?! LOL I supposed all friends meant well. Now I am feeling some cramps, a little like af coming feel down underneath. But its impossible right?
COuld it be my over-exercise this afternoon?

Today is Day 2 consuming the new purchase- Conceive well from Blackmores, I read that it is best to consume for 06 months.

Alrighty, once again baby dust to all of us here! and congrats to August 2014 mums once again, for those that I may have missed out.

Cheers!

Hi ladies!
3dpo today (hopefully)....ha,I didn't bother with OPK's or temping this time around.
Just going by CM.

I got nothing too exciting to share. I ended up sleeping in today which was a nice change, although I missed my Hot Yoga class.

Maybe I will take the one tomorrow?!

Have a good weekend everyone!

Question ladies, how can I tell if I ovulated? New at temping and I did get a peak smiley on cd13 or 14 that lasted 2 days and now its negative. My temp spiked yesterday but I took it 2hrs later than normal which I know I shouldn't have done. I guess I am in my 2ww now so I am praying this cycle is the one. I appreciate the help and support.

@Ashley - you should see a pattern in your temps. One temp, espcially 2 hours after normal, isn't a very good indicator. However, since you got a positive OPK, there isn't much of a reason to believe that you didn't ovulate. SO, I would keep temping, and hopefully you will see continued temp rises. (-:

Thanks for the reply! Like I said I am new to temping. I tried it when we first started TTC but I overwhelmed myself and gave up on it until this cycle because I really want a good indicator of when I ovulate. I don't trust opk's 100% or my ability to read them correctly unless the test line is a ton darker than the control line. this will be it. I feel pretty good about things if my opk was accurate. We didn't bd every other day but it was about every two days.
