Sam I like your theory on the sperm! I hope that i the case. As for the nausea I only got nauseous a few times with my pregnancy with my DD at about 6 weeks so I don't know. I would have thought the same as you, have you consulted Dr. Google? ;)
I'm apparently at CD16 and technically should O today but I'm thinking it will be more like Wed or Thurs. Still haven't got those darn OPKs, I kind of feel like what is the point?

I'm sorry you feel down Tracey, it is so frustrating when you think you know what your body is going to do and then it changes suddenly on you. It's not fair but I guess if you still have a few inseminations this cycle you just never know! Fingers crossed hun.

Have a great Monday everyone. xx

I personally wouldn't bother with the OPKs of you and your DH are actively baby dancing, I think they're more for those only trying in their fertile window but from what I've read you guys aren't so don't waste your money.

The nausea has passed but I do expect it to rear it's ugly head again in the morning that seems to be the way it goes.

Does anyone know if internet cheapies have indent lines? I'm going to inspect the one I open tomorrow before dipping it. The one I used this morning has a line when I tilt it but not when it's flat I'm assuming it's an indent line cos it's not coloured but it plays tricks on the eyes lol

I haven't used the internet cheapies sorry Sam but I have seen a few posts on here about them. What was this morning's one like? Are you having the nausea again this morning?
Yeah I'm not going to bother with OPK's. I am CD17 today and should O in the next few days. I'm really going to try and maintain the every day BD this month. Even if it means his count isn't high at least there will always be (hopefully) fresh swimmers waiting. I read yesterday that specialists/ doctors etc don't really understand about 80% of how and why things happen as they do when TTC. Reassuring. :S

How are the insem's going Tracey? You ok there?

Crosshairs showing ovulation cd16 which make me 1 dpo so today would be a waste of time but doing it anyway :(
Really bummed but oh well he knows now to check his emails morning noon n night , just incase it happens again !

Guess I can fly through this TWW knowing I've already missed it ! But the thought of another bloody month waiting to O really pisses me off !!!!

I'm sorry Tracey, I hope you got it but at least if not your donor will be on the ball (no pun intended) next month. Hope you're ok. X

I hope so to, I'm also thinking of looking for another donor, going to join co-parent match and see what it has to offer.
Fingers crossed we see a bfp from one of you girls soon !! I guess atleastbthis will be a short cycle. Almost 28 days if I have my typical 12-13 literal phase as normal

Oh shit Tracey I'm really sorry but on the up side at least you get a break from the whole situation and don't have to stress about it until next cycle. Not the result you wanted but it could be good to have a stress free couple of weeks.

No nausea today Jodi which is good!! I forgot to check the strip this morning cos I did it when I was half asleep lol. Better to check tomorrow as I have an afternoon shift so more time to sleep and test when I'm actually awake!! I'm 8dpo and have had tiny cramps on and off in the same spot today. They would have to be the mildest cramps I've ever felt hopefully I'm implanting!!!!!

I hope so Sam. Not long now til you will know for sure this month!

Good luck with the search for a new donor Tracey, gosh it's all very frustrating isn't it?! Argh.

Still no O pains for me, maybe tomorrow. Have EWCM so won't be far off.

I didn't have any EWCM this month prior to O not even a drop!!! But hopefully the preseed made up for the lack of it!! However I have noticed some the last couple of days.... No idea what that means......But EWCM is a good sign for you hopefully O happens tomorrow and you can join us on this 2ww

It's funny actually I NEVER get ewcm or if I do I don't see it, I do get very watery, slimy cm but that's it for me.
Well 3rd day of positive opks but 100% ovulated at latest yesty morning or night before BUT I'm going to keep testing just incase it happens again round cd20-21 like last month just to be sure.

Daycare for Jett tomorrow so I'm off to get my hair totally recoloured from dark brown n blonde foils to black and pink or purple perimeter or foils cant decide on where I want the colour yet
