Fruit I was starting to worry about you, glad to hear your getting to see your donor. OPKs the same, cervix still high, slightly tilted and open. Lots of white cm today. Severe cotton mouth from the Vitex drinking water from sun up to sun down. Temp has dropped last 2 days but DD has kicked like a mule and keeping me on the edge of the bed last 2 nights. Little stink bug best sleep in her bed and let moma get some rest and some snuggle time with daddy.

AF showed today, so now I feel crazy for thinking I was having all those symptoms.

Just waiting.... urgh. Think I'm about 5 dpo today. I have very little luck with OPKs, so that's only an estimate. AF could arrive as early as July 6. As of right now, symptoms are mild: dull backache, dull headache (3rd day now), dreams, kind of anxious, sore nipples, tingly breasts from time to time, and still have some watery CF.

I'm going to try and hold off testing until Monday, the 4th. That way if it's negative, I have a day off from work to deal with the emotional aftermath ????

I did start the Take 10 Day Headspace meditation program which has been pretty awesome. On day 5 of that today.

This our 6 month TTC. DH and I have FertilAid supplements on the way, and he has a basic sperm analysis set up for July 18.

Fingers crossed and baby dust to all.

Very positive Opk now. Bd session x1 so far. Dull ovary pain from both sides. Temp steady at 97.02. Waiting on that spike!

Hey ladies. CD 9 for me and starting my opk. Didn't get to temp yesterday or today as it's been a bit nuts here. Travelled 4hrs for Dragon boat races yesterday and being Canada day we had fireworks and stuff late. Slept in this morning and missed my temp alarm. I'll take an opk around dinner time and then start tomorrow with twice a day. Donor coming tomorrow afternoon and on Tuesday so hoping to hit ov this month

Temp really jumping up 97.49 this morning. Going to try not to get my hopes up. Only 2 DPO. If I don't start spotting on 10 DPO then maybe bean on the way. Then I'll test on 12 DPO. If I start spotting on 10-11 DPO AF on the way, never fails.

Well I got a dark opk yesterday morning and then a blazing positive in the afternoon. Got to inseminate last night. Don't know how I'm gonna identify temp shift but I guess I'll go do opk for a couple more days and follow my mucous and cp to confirm ov. Donor said he can come Tuesday if I get another positive opk before then so we'll see. Really hoping for this month as it just feels right

Well I'm cd12 and pretty positive I ovulated yesterday because my cervix is high, and barely open this morning and there is almost no cf to even find. Donor is still coming this morning in case Sunday's insem wasn't successful. Now the tww begins.
Oh and temp was 97.52 which is still above my usual coverline so I'm gonna set ov to yesterday on my chart and see what happens

That's great fruit. Welcome to the Tww!
My temp fell a little but no sleep which wouldn't that make my temp higher instead of lower? I'm having dull throbbing in my ovaries. 3 DPO and already feeling doubtful

Your not out chicks. Temps do all sorts of weird things with no sleep.
I'm still having left pelvic pain but my cervix is not nearly as soft and open as yesteday. Plus I have no cervical fluid. I think Sundays insem was perfect timing and today is going to be a waste but he's almost here so we'll do it anyway. I'll keep checking my cervix in case it softens and opens again in the next couple days but I don't think the sperm today will have much of a chance without the mucous.
This is going to be a hard tww since I can't pinpoint ov due to weird temps
