TTC Mid-late April 2019 Babies!
Hi All!
I was on a thread with other ladies and many of us, including myself, unfortunately did not conceive. Starting this new post for anyone early in their cycle or right around O day. I am CD11 now and should O in 3-5 days, giving me an EDD of 4/20/19 should I get a BFP. Please join me through your Ovulation and TWW! Post your thoughts/worries/ovulation tests/etc.
I know there's another April 2019 group but it's nice to have a smaller group too!
Cheers,
~Lib

Welp ladies, @Veevee’s suggestion was spot on and I have a positive OPK in front of me. Tonight husband and I are going on a date night (complete with a hotel stay sans kiddos!) so I’m feeling more in control now. Good luck everyone! Exciting that a lot of us are O’ing at a similar time!

@Cornflakegirl, welcome! :) Good luck to you in this cycle. If you have any concerns, questions, please post. We are here for support.
@KY, I share your feeling about the BFNs. I also plan to test after/if AF doesn't show. Unless of course I won't be able to handle it anymore and will just go for a test a lot sooner :// :D But I will try to wait it out, so we can hold each other to it!! :)) How have you been?
@Lib, great news about the OPK!! Now you need to get down to some serious baby making business :)) Thanks for the advice as well! I tried to cover my ground by using pre-seed, but wasn't sure if it really helps also during the time when my own cm isn't very fertility friendly. But I'm glad to hear you had a success with it before. I wish you lovely baby dancing moments :))) and let us know how your 2ww is going!! :))
Good luck to you all, ladies!!

@Veve_N Thank you very much
@tonix93 I don't know, but I start to think that these high-technology clearblue stuff are a bit crappy, above all if you're not the average-perfect-cycle person (like me). I bought one of these fertility monitors, and I had "high fertility" from the very I started testing (CD8)! And my regular opk cheapies just started to get a bit darker yesterday (I'm on CD 22)!
I'm a bit hyponchondriac and I was worried about my estrogen levels, so last week, when I went to my endocrinologist to check my thyroid levels (I have chronic hypothyroidism), I asked him to check my fertility-hormones (I thought that maybe I developped PCOS) at the same time. And the results when back to be completely normal. My endocrinologist told me not to put much thoughts on these products, as we don't know exactly the levels of estrogen hormones they measure, but when they indicate the LH peak, it's usually true.
So if you find a good brand of cheapies, it's usually enough, and it the price is way more interesting!

Oh congratulations "Readytobeamum101"!!! We needed some good news in the group! :))) Wish you happy and healthy 9 months! :)) How long have you been trying?
@Tonix, I was using the digitals a while back. I don't really recall whether I always had a flashing smiley before a solid one, but if, it couldn't have been more than a day, as the smiley was usually present for me for only around a day and a half. But one thing I noticed when I started with the cheap tests is that I don't always have the strongest result in the morning for OPK tests. The afternoon tests I took were "darker" than the ones I took in the morning even if they were still negative.. perhaps it just takes a bit of time for the hormone to get to urine, so it's detectable.

@libelula I’m still waiting for my ovulation test to turn positive, they are pretty dark since a day or two, but I couldn’t tell if the tonight’s one was darker than yesterday’s.
I’m on day 23, I hope that I will have my positive OPK before day 35, unlike the last cycle. It really starts to get on my nerves.
However, it’s to hot here for even thinking about sex, even less doing it.

@readytobeamum congratulations! Such good news!!
@cornflakegirl, fingers crossed you get your positive opk soon!
I’m going to assume the solid smiley was right, I also had a tiny amount of brown spotting Saturday and a little cramping, also it would put me on cd10 which after a 25 day cycle last month would be about right!
Now the dreaded 2ww
Definitely told myself to hold off testing this month!
