Nicole and Bumpin: praying for a !!!

Marcie: hope you O soon! I agree that bd'ing starts to feel like a job .. DH and I are trying to get back in the habit of bd'ing for fun as well as for TTC. Saddle up sister! Hehehehe

Lettoh: I'm a couple days behind you at CD5. When do you usually ovulate? I'm expecting to O on CD 13/14. Goodluck cycle buddy!

Texas: wait a couple more days then test again! Have you used the implantation calculator and pregnancy test timing calculator? It helps keep me sane and logical when I test too early hehe

So I finally finished my book.. I cheated last cycle and POAS before finishing it hehe but it did help me not to test until 12dpo! I'm probably going to start the next book, Insurgent, but I also want to read If I Stay by Gayle Forman and I think that book also has a sequel! So much to read!

Hey guys, hopping over from the April Board. CD 2 today. Just enjoying AF. (-;

This is our second cycle TTC since being diagnosed with MTHFR and since trying again since our third miscarriage in February. REALLY ready for a pregnancy that is healthy and sticks.

How's everyone doing? Hope everything is going well.

Did another test. Negative. Think I'm out for this month. But at least if af comes when it's due im still in with a chance of a may baby lol

Texas - I've been pregnant 4 times and didn't get implantation bleeding once lol I did get cramps though ;)

Thanks everyone.

The only thing I did different was stop checking CM/cervix so intensely. I stopped charting on FF. Did the B-dance every single day since 2 days before possible ovulation (still not sure when that was...24 day cycle, AF was due sunday). I did stop working in June. I'm a teacher, and I teach a class of children with Autism. It was a stressful job, so having the summer off is nice.

How did this cycle feel different?
Well my breasts always hurt pretty bad after ovulation, this time it took awhile to start (assuming ovulation was the 3rd like FF said) it never started Til the 7/8th. There was little to none EWCM.
I noticed on the 14tg the veins in my breast were sticking out more (there is always one that's sticks out before period) I started feeling nauseated and crampy ..but only when I was hungry. So I never thought anything of it. Then last night laying in bed at like midnight (could not sleep) I suddently began to Gag. It passed within a couple minutes. So this morning I woke up and the breast tenderness was gone. I thought for sure I was out. It always stops before period. But later on I'm the day I'm sitting on the couch and I started to gag again. Took everything I had not to toss my cookies. I knew something was up. Went to dollar store and grabbed two tests. And I've taken them both. Both positive within time frame. Now I've had a chemical before, so I'm nervous.
It feels like AF is coming any minute...heavy pressure in lower lady area, no breast tenderness, TMI:soft stools. All classic AF signs. I still feel nauseated thu...

Fingers crossed, for all you ladies! May babies here we come! I'm staying with the thread thu until I know for sure.

WhileImWaiting :) It is so good to see you back and that is so great that they know what caused those miscarriages.

Holmes - keep us updated. Hopefully all is well.

6 DPO - nothing really to report except that I am still obsessing about my "signs" that I almost always get around this time.

I will try to stay strong and not test till Sunday - 11 DPO.

My temperature graph changed a bit and not it is telling me that possibly I am 5 DPO. I am sticking with my original ovulation day :)

Well I think I'm out for April. AF was due today or Thursday (always a 28 or 30day cycle). I spotted at what I thought was 10dpo and 1x on 11dpo. I've never done that before so I was hoping maybe implantation bleeding? Last night same brownish spotting 1x and this morning same brownish spotting. I'm guessing AF starting. Even though I've had no cramps (I normally cramp soo bad first day of AF). I feel like I'm going to be blah all day waiting for AF to really start. So here I am in the May :). for May ladies ;*

Lovemy2kb - did you test ?

Well, CTP gave me a coverline on my chart today, but no estimated ovulation day. Still haven't gotten the LH surge on my fertility monitor. So confused. BDed last night, but DH is out of town tonight so no BD again until at least tomorrow (depending on when he gets home). I plan on having an evening of relaxation tonight :)

Marcie - few more days and you will get that LH surge :)
Hopefully you will get it tomorrow when your husband is back so you can get a bit more BDing in there
