Hi girls AF showed up like clockwork. So today CD1 on to Cycle 3 of TTC. I feel very disappointed and sad begining to think something is wrong with me. Im just praying God gives me the answers for this new cycle and helps me get through it.

Goodluck to everyone testing and to thise opk testing.

AF did show up this morning. I had a good solid cry about it today and now jut trying to pick up the pieces and start a fresh cycle. This will be our 10th cycle TTC and I am also getting more and more discouraged. Two more cycles before I can go see the RE.

Fingers crossed for all of you still waiting for your answers. And good luck to everyone starting the next cycle!

purelex: My vacation to Portland, OR was awesome! I just loved it!!! We checked out the glorious and majestic Mt. Hood. My personal fav. was at the aquarium feeding the stingrays. They are so friendly and soft to touch, made me want to hug them tight but you can't...Lol! How are you doing? Hope you get your this month!

Mrsmawalla1: So sorry showed up for you. Try to relax and chill with some wine, candles and a nice warm soak. It is so hard to get over this phase but it does bring in the hopes of a bright new cycle... new beginnings... hopefully new life

Lalou3tt3: Hey we are cycle buddies both on CD12 today Did your doc. prescribe Clomid? I wanted some aids but my ob-gyn still insists we keep trying naturally. for this month.

Contemplating: Hope your next test is dark and !!! Waiting for some good news anxiously.

pippyh: Totally understand your frustrations on symptom spotting. I think it is absolutely natural when we are trying so hard to get a Lots and lots of to you.

MrsB11: These opks can be so confusing. I don't understand how our own bodies are so complicated and just pin-pointing ovulation is like looking for a needle in a hay-stack I wish you all the best and hope you get your this month!

kmksmd: I am just one day behind you in the cycle but surely you guys BD a lot more than us. I have an appointment with fertility specialist end of this month as well. I think it is a great idea to look deeper into the pregnancy situation. How was your next test?

AFM: It is super crazy with my CB purple OPK. I had two low fertility days and today peak fertility. I am not sure how I missed out the high fertility days. Anyone has faced the same scenario? DH and me jumped right on it after seeing high fertility and DTD today. I hope we can keep up the BD enough to catch the egg. I would be absolutely ecstatic if I get a gemini baby as libra-gemini compatibility is fantastic. My back-up plan is to go to fertility specialist end of this month and may be get started with IVF.

Sorry if I missed out anyone! Lots and lots of to everyone testing or waiting to test... Hope we get flooded with 's this month!

Kmksmd hang in there I know how you feel. I was just hoping and praying nothing would happen. I was even holding off peeing cause I was so scared to see red. Its very sad speacilly when you BD as much as possible. We both CD1 today. Im trying to think of a different strategy now

Dsinha I have had 2cycles wer I never got the flashing smily it went straight to the sokid smiley so I even called clearblue and asked why they said I might od started testing to late and mossed the high fertility but I dont see how cuz last cycle I opked from CD7 2days after AF.

This cycle im following the SMEP and trying preseed for the first time. Anyone tried that?

Sorry about Mrsmawalla1 and kmksmd! Hoping this new cycle brings your s!

Contemplating, hope your positive gets darker! Keep us updated!

Lalou3tt3 welcome!! Hope Clomid works for you (and me)!!

MrsB11 & dsinha1011 good luck catching the egg!!

purelex how many DPO are you now?

AFM I am CD18 on my first Clomid cycle and was supposed to trigger tonight but I got a positive opk this morning (usually I O later in my cycle but I had some ewcm so I decided to test!) so we BD and then I triggered this afternoon. Will BD in the morning and on Monday too! Hoping we catch the egg(s)!! Will be interesting to see when I O, maybe tomorrow??

Wow... after 4 years we just had our very first BFP!!
I used a digital FRER this morning and it came up as yes +
The internet urine dipstick also came up as a more solid line.

Feels so surreal... I now have a long 4ww to confirm that it is not ectopic :( It will probably feel more real once it is confirmed to be a healthy normal pregnancy.

Sending lots of , , love and light. Hopefully is it contagious and there will be more BFPs in this group soon :)

Contemplating !!!!!

to everyone testing soon

Congrats Contemplating!!!!!

Dsinha I am so glad we are cycle and thank you all for the welcome.
Mrsmawalla1 and kmksmd I keep you both in my thoughts for future
clarabelle31 how was your ovulation pains if you got any? I am been feeling some mild and tender pains lower abdomen since last night. So I was wondering if that is common with clomid. Also I think I ovulated last night , BBT shifted from 97.1 yesterday to 97.7 this morning.
contemplating huge

Dsinha my doc did prescribed it , we have been trying on and off for almost 3 years and I had some tests done, all my hormones levels were good. So i think she figures I could try this month with clomid and we will see. I have to say i was worried because some women have had crazy symptoms and side effects with it but this is my #1 cycle with clomid and I had spotting for 3 days after my MS and then no problems until my dull cramps (ov pains ??) yesterday.
