@Purple summer: hahha thanks I think my levels aren’t high enough to detect much but I’m putting the frer test up anyways.

@dragonfly: I am hoping the same thing. I would hate to have PID or something worse and have surgery or something ya know? But either way I haven’t had bleeding like this ever so.... we shall see what is going on in a couple of days....

@beautiful: I thought I ovulated September 30 but that wouldn’t make any sense if I’m having implantation bleeding starting on 14 October, or would it make sense??? I was able to pinpoint ovulation with OPK’s this time around and I’m hoping that my SO And I caught the egg this time. Either way there’s always next month so no rush.... test that I took today has a really faint positive and I don’t know whether to consider it a big fat positive just yet because of how light it is....

@ellebeeem: welcome to the forum my dear and my fingers are crossed for you so that you may get your big fat positive as well. Baby dust to all

ElleBeeEm- Welcome!! CD15, So are you a 30-31 day? Do you temp or use opk?

Vettechgirl11 did you post it? i will take a look. if that was IB maybe First first week of October you ovulated. like the 3rd to 6th maybe just a guess.

Today i have had a lot of dull pressure and lower backache. it goes and comes though. it like all over not a left or right side and its a warm feeling. anybody get this 3dpo? i see its a number one sign on 3dpo based on my signature post!!

@beautiful: Yeah, I'm usually around a 30 day cycle. This is my 18th month TTC #2 so I have tried almost everything over the past year and a half. I do use OPKs pretty much every month and I have temped on-and-off. I am temping again this month b/c I'm going to try a natural progesterone cream and I'm not supposed to start it until after ovulation. My OPK this morning was getting dark but not quite there so I'm hoping it will turn positive tonight or tomorrow morning.

@vettechigirl: Thanks for the welcome! Hope that the line gets darker!

ElleBeeEm- I heard of the cream before but i didnt want to start that till i was maybe a Yr. of trying. im only on #4 of TTC. i have been temp and using opk since then. this is my only 2nd time on this site, i use Fertility Friend app as well. That was me this cycle was dark on CD16 and by CD 17 at 230pm i was a POS, and then at CD18 by 11am was a Neg for sure, i had a short Surge. im usually 2 days positive. This cycle was already different again!!!

ElleBeeEm: thank you! I think I may have ovulated late but we shall see...

Beautiful: I posted it but I don’t think it’s positive :(

@EllBeeeEm welcome and all the best this cycle..

@Vettech I'm not sure its positive either at this point..what cycle day are you and how long are your cycles?..may just be a bit early

@Beaut1ful38 This month we are going for a version of the "sperm meets egg"-strategy. BD every other day from period ended until a few days after ovulation. I am also cutting down on caffeine. One cup of coffee a day and decaf tea only.

Do you ladies have a "battleplan" for this month??

Purplesummer: I usually have 28 Day cycles.... I am on CD 30.... my spotting has completely stopped and my cervix is high and soft. Currently I am only experiencing fatigue and extreme thirst. I work nights so it’s hard to tell if it’s a symptom or if it’s just from working nights lol.

Hey Ladies,

I had a question or opinions , Yesterday I had cramps, mild dull pains, and tired...around 4pm before leaving work i went to the RR and noticed (didnt even check) but noticed Creamy white, watery, ew CM, was so strange, i went home and took a OPK test bc i thought we missed O, but it was NEG. and everything stopped but the mild dull cramps was still there. Let me describe it best i can.....when on my finger was watery looking... when rubbed lotion like....when stretched was Ew substance...but it was WHITE not clear at all. What do yall think? i was only 3dpo and of course hit the websites up googling, and alot say they got it at 3-4dpo and again at 8-9dpo and it ended in a BFP.

AFM TODAY, pain on left side, creamy cm again and i have this feeling of being wet down there, sorry tmi. Gassy but more like bubbles in tummy. and shooting pain since yesterday down below (if you know what i mean).
How is everyone else? This cycle didnt do much but take prenatal vitamins and watched my opk.

@Ninni nice to have a strategy..was also hoping for sperm meets egg if DH is actually around but its unlikely! Worked for me last time so good luck!

@ Vettech so you're a bit late already..its a good ting though that spotting has stopped!..im counting that as a positive..maybe give it another day or two and test again?..fingers crossed for you..i can imagine the frustration of being late but now knowing..

@Beautiful I don't have any experience with CM after O..i pretty much dry up..but hopefully its a good sign for you since your opk was also negative and looks like you had a clear temp shift..i hope those temps stay elevated!
