August 2018 Babies
I was in July but AF has arrived with a vengeance so I'm moving on to TTC an August baby.
Technically this is my 2nd cycle TTC. We started in spring and conceived right away but it ended in a loss. So the first month we were able to try again was October. DH is a truck driver so that makes TTC very difficult. My midwife called in BCP for me today, and I'm going to take them for 2 weeks to delay ovulation so that it will match DH home time for the next 4 months. I'm also Homozygous MTHFR and clotting disorder, so I am on baby aspirin, prenatals with methylfolate, and will start lydia Pinkham when I stop BCP. I need O to occur between Nov 24-29. Any earlier and we will miss it. We are swaying Girl, but only because they are harder to get (for us) and plan two more children total. I'll be happy with whatever we get though!

@Beaut1ful38. I am doing much better actually. Thank you for asking. I too picked up 20 OPKs and 4 HPTs yesterday (still have quite a few HPTs from the other company) but after my last test and what could have been a evap I am discouraged by them. I hope this will be your month and the SME works for you. I still want to do the every other day, providing DH is up for that.
@katyfootballmomma. Good luck to you this cycle as well. Hope this is your month as well.

@katyfootballmomma. Thank you for the warm wishes. It was disheartening as I've never had that happen before but then again, I wasn't trying back then.
@Yearofthebaby. Welcome! Hope this is your month and hope the two weeks fly by fast and you get your BFP.
@Pearl_325. Hope the next two weeks flies by fast and that you get your BFP as well.

AFM, So we are doing SME plan, but i have taken MULTIPLY brands of opk test, i felt like CD 17 was my + and CD 18 i know i had a morning + the line got dark but as it dried looked negative. So i took 1 in the afternoon, looked negative. last night hit drug store and bought the Equate brand, took one last night negative. took one this morning negative. What is going on???? Did i have a short LH Surge?? My temp spiked today. So did i ovulate??? im confused i dont know what to do, guess BD today and tomorrow skip a day and try again?? PLEASE HELP LOOK AT MY CHART!!!

@Beaut1ful38 I am calm right now and just trying to concentrate on other things untilt he time comes to test. But I say this every cycle and then by like 10 dpo i start going crazy and testing non-stop and noticing every little thing my body does lol. But for now I am trying to just keep busy.
Unfortunately i don't know anything about opk's or temps or anything. I have never done any of that (although maybe i should!) i just use an app and go by my cervical mucus for the most part.

Pearl325- i know what you mean!!! i guess bc we want that BFP so bad that we are just hoping we Could we be one of the lucky ones that see a BFP at 8-10dpo, Will we be one of the lucky one this cycle??? who know time will tell!!! LOL
i just need to relax, since temp spiked i should consider myself at ovulation time, and continue following the SMEP. i am so bloated and gassy today so thats a good sign LOL.

@Beaut1ful38 LOL exactly! I always feel like I am NEVER going to see that BFP and that if I ever do see it I will be beyond shocked! Do you ever feel that way? I feel like some girls are so much more hopeful than me but for some reason i just feel like i will keep being disappointed month after month. Thats why i'm trying to to stress too much this time around! we'll see how long that lasts lol
