@Lib-
Hoping for the best!! We need a few if not many positives in our group

Hi ladies! True that, we really do need a lot of positives.

@Lib, maybe you can try to temp to see if you've really ovulated? Or do you have all the other symptoms? Maybe it's just taking its sweet time and you'll get positive OPK soon.

@Bkc, I usually don't have any symptoms around ovulation time, they all come only after and stay till period.

Has any of you ladies entered the 2ww already?

@Veve, I don't temp... I tried for awhile but my readings were always all over the place; I could never see a pattern. It's probably because of my two kids and getting up to check on them/them crawling into bed with us. :) I'd be VERY happy to get a positive OPK... will probably keep testing until AF or BFP. My cycles have just been much much shorter lately so a late O would either be unlikely or a very bad sign for my luteal phase.

How is your cycle going? Any signs/symptoms/worries/hopes?

The app says I’m 6dpo but I just started ttc last month after a Clearblue false positive ! So I’ve been using opks late in this cycle around cd13 or 14! Hopefully I didn’t miss it but in case I did we have BD every other day ! With my cycle last month starting on the 17th and this on the 13th I’m not sure where we are ! Just praying we are not out this month ! Promising symptoms but when u want it as bad as we all do I’m scared it’s in my head ! Btw this will be #3 for us ! Youngest turned 6 in July so it’s time for another!

@Kashiap, good luck to you! :) Did you get any positive OPK or you think it was already too late? What symptoms do you have?

@Lib, oh I see, so then it's no use to temp. If you have other symptoms of the 2ww, then it should be fine :)) Hmm, I think the length of the cycle depends mainly on how long the pre-ovulation phase lasts, right? So if by any chance your O day was delayed, then your cycle this month should be that much longer. I hope I'm right, cause mine is also a bit delayed. I had what I now consider a "false positive" OPK 2 days ago, but it was only one, then negatives, and the real positives came today. So hopefully the O day is around the corner. Do you track any other fertile signs? I'm concerned that all of mine are there between 5-3 days before O day and then nothing... so I worry a little bit that there's not a lot of help to get pregnant during the "crucial time"... do you have any experience there?

Hi there!
Can I join you? It's my first month of trying and I hope I'm going to ovulate in the few next days. My cycles are a hot mess since I gave birth in February.
I hope we all get a beautiful BFP soon!

Hey ladies cycle day 13, estimated o is in 3 days, but i feel it is coming sooner i will know when i get my e.w. cm! The last few cycles bumped me from a 26 day cycle to a 28 day. But hey i will take it! I got ib with both my girls and hope i get it this month at around 9 dpo, which will mean i am on the right track to my bfp for the hubby's Birthday! I won't be testing early this month just drives me too crazy, so i will test the day of my expected af if i am lucky enough to witness ib. If for some reason i don't have ib i will test a week after my expected period(if i don't start), i just cannot keep seeing bfn's! I need you ladies to hold me to it! Lol

to you all, and i hope for a for us all! Lots and lots of

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!

@Veve, just saw your question: I've had success with Pre-seed in the past. It's a REALLY awesome lubricant (like seriously, the best I've ever tried) and doesn't harm sperm like other lubes can.
