5DPO Today - Looking for Cycle Buddies!
Hello!! My name is Rachel and this is our second month trying for baby #1! Looking for someone to share the process with, as none of my friends are TTC and, as I'm sure a lot of you know, this can be a lonely and frustrating process.

Sweet - I've been thinking the same thing! How amazing would that be?? Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure I'm out this month. Temps keep going down and just "feeling out." My mom broke her shoulder on Thursday and is now scheduled for surgery tomorrow (total replacement). Lots of stress, don't know if that made any difference this cycle. Still crossing my fingers until the witch shows, so we'll see.
Fruit - Welcome! Hope this TWW is a fast and positive one for you!!

I'm a glutton for punishment, I took an clear blue advance digital test about an hour ago. although today is only 9DPO still hoping. I'm having some other symptoms that seem promising. But who knows sometimes I wonder if I imagine them or if I'm going crazy. Lol wish the TWW wasn't so long.

Good morning baby! I'm so glad you asked because I was really wanting to discuss this with someone. I am actually feeling really nervous. A couple of months ago a social services worker contacted me about bringing in my sister's three children. I said I would love to if my sister couldn't prove herself as a fit parent. We went thru a home study and it has just been a waiting game. Welll....... Social services lady called me yesterday. They are terminating my sister's parental rights next month and the children will be traveling with this worker after court on July 20. I told my fiancee, watch.... This month will be the month I get pg and keep it! But that's ok too. Because I still want one of my own. So including my brother who I have legal guardianship of we will be going from a family of 4 to a family of 7 possibly 8!

Hello everyone!
Wow Sweet, that sure is a lot on your plate! I'm sure whatever happens will work out for the absolute best!!
My mom went in for surgery on her shoulder yesterday and has had some complications including some concerns over her heart. My DH has been amazing, taking shifts with me at the hospital so I'm able to put in a few hours of work a day (my leave is not so slowly diminishing).
I'm starting to think I O'd later than I originally thought. Although my CM and OPKs all point to CD16, my BBT seems to point more towards CD19. Worried that we may have missed the window because we stopped BDing on CD17. Either way, I'm just going to wait until Saturday to test again unless I get another big temp spike.
How's everyone else's cycle going?

Wow Sweet! That could be very exciting and I'm sure a bit nerve racking at the same time! You hear so many times that couples will decide to adopt after years of trying to conceive and then once they get the adoption process in motion they end up getting pregnant. Maybe your situation will be similar!!
Rachel... I hope you're ur mom begins a more seamless and easy recovery... But you definitely have an awesome DH to take turns with you at the hospital. He's a keeper!! ????
I am recouping from my surgery last week and wanting to get through the witch week so that I can meet with the fertility specialist and begin the IUI process. I'm getting anxious lol.

Rach- it does seem like day19 was ovulation but bd on day17 is still well within the window. I would change ov on your chart
Sweet- that does sound like a lot. Glad it's you and not me as I would be way overwhelmed.
Afm I'm 7dpo and woke up to another temp rise which looks like it'll be the start of triphasic for me. Also having pms like cramps a bit this morning. Hoping for some spotting to indicate implantation.
