@bugttc I'm so sorry! Definitely enjoy your vacation.

I don't think this is my month either. My thoughts are that this is just a super long cycle from coming off birth control in early October. It happened when we were TTC with my son. What sucks is I had positive OPKs and a temp surge similar to O, but I'm just not positive that anything happened. So now it's just the waiting game to see when AF shows so I can start again.

Thanks Sac. I hope you get some answers soon. I am going to enjoy my vacation and try not stressing this month.

Maybe a little bit late, but I would love to join you girls. We have been trying for almost 2 years (jan -17), with nothing but bad luck so far. And the bad luck seems to continue. Been temping (bbt) since we started ttc, except for a few months where I decided not to. As far as supplements go, I take maca, evening primrose oil and folic acid. I am also taking vitamin D and vitamin B-complex, but not specifically for ttc.

Got a positive OPK today, but with my luck recently I don't think we have that much of a chance this month. We BDed sunday and have both not been feeling well for a few days, but were planning on doing it tonight. But instead he got a call from work ordering him to work overtime today, which means he won't be home until monday. Really hope 2019 is a better year than this.

@Divinium Welcome! I hope you got some BD in. It sucks that y'all aren't feeling good. Fingers crossed it's your month.
This week marks 1yr TTC for me. Yesterday, I felt so depressed and I felt so angry. My emotions are all over the place. I had my annual health check up. My bp was high 140/100. They took it twice. In the beginning of the appointment and at the end hoping my anxiety would settle and get a better reading. It didn't though. I also had labs done. I go back on my bday next month for a follow up.

I told the Dr about us TTC a year and charting and have had no luck. She said that my fiance should go ahead and get a semen analysis so my fertility Dr could move forward with Clomid.

I just felt even worse after that because I know my fiance won't go do it. It makes me so angry that he can't do a simple test.

We spent $5000 on tubal ligation reversal surgery and recovery was awful! Worse than my bariatric surgeries I've had.... I'm temping and using opks... All this charting and planning. What does he have to do??? Nothing! Just have sex!

I'm still feeling anger towards him. I hope I can move forward and get over it. I'm thinking that if I don't get pregnant this month that I'm going to throw everything away and delete my apps. I'm just going to stop trying. At least until he shows me that he wants this as bad as I do. This depression is really hitting hard. I am taking anxiety and depression medication but it's not a fix all.

Thanks for letting me vent. It's been a tough week for for me. All I want to do is cry. I want to scream at my man and show him how I feel, but I won't. I just told him yesterday I was irritable and stressed out. Not over TTC but of other things. I care for 7 children and keep house and cook for 2 households, plus I run appointments and errands.. I don't want to talk to him about TTC because I know it won't change a thing.
My chart as of today....

Have you done a test to make sure your tubes aren't blocked yet? It took my hubby a while before he would get tested. I would see if they would do that first though. After a tubal things can get blocked up... my hubby's motility was low and a few other issues, but nothing crazy bad. It took us 4 years to get preggo with our first and have been trying 7 months for our second. Sometimes it really does just take time.

@mill yes I had a HSG via Ultrasound in May. Everything looked great. Great blood flow, tubes clear, uterus clear. He says I got ovaries like a woman in her 20s and see why I was called Fertile Myrtle in the past....

My fiance has fathered 2 children so he says nothing is wrong with him... I believe him but this test has to be done in order to move forward. I would like to try Clomid.

I am ovulating on my own, but I'm doing it later in my cycle now. My Fertility Dr wanted me to try Clomid and monitor me and possibly do a trigger shot. Financially we can afford this, it's just all held up on my fiance testing..

Hi ladies 6 dpo and just going completely crazy with this 2ww! Every day feels like a week. I really feel like this may be the month. Testing out trigger but there’s still a line so hopefully it goes away soon.

@photomama fingers crossed! I'm either 5 or 7 dpo lol I'm counting down to AF! I hope she don't show next weekend!

@Nicole, I'm so sorry that your fiance is getting you trouble. Even if he has fathered children in the past, you just never know. Life happens and circumstances change. I really hope he changes his mind.

@photomama Yay! Good luck in the TWW. I'm right here with ya.

Right now, I'm on CD28 and 9DPO (probably... depends on the setting in FF). I had a huge temp drop today (from 97.90 to 97.45) so I'm just waiting for AF to show up. Hoping that I'm still in the running. But I did pack a tampon in case the witch does show up while I'm at work. Here's my chart just in case y'all wanna look.

I'm either 7dpo or 3 dpo. Ff says one thing while ctp says something else. Lol. I was super tired yesterday and had some stabbing pains under my belly button all afternoon. Nausea comes and goes. AF may come in about 11 days. If it does, I will have a fun new years eve, if I am pregnant I will be gleaming and could care less about a drink. Anyways, I am ready to go see a specialist. And get my BFP. Baby dust to all.
