@shay i understand.
@itsAna i love your attitude. Keep positive.
@Kait almost time to poas.
@photomama that is fantastic news. Have fun baby dance.
Had some heavy cramps today and my cervix went medium low and it seems to be hard like the tip of the nose and slightly open. So our "favorite" aunt might be on her way. So far BFN. Will poas on Sunday if no visit by then. Welcome to the newbies and stay positive.

Hi ladies. I'm 5 dpo. Tested around 7pm with BFN. Breast got heavy and full about 7 days ago. Seems to be less full today. Feeling emotional & irritated. I know it's early to test but I think I'm out this cycle. Read somewhere about breast decreasing in size indicates drop in progesterone which is also a sign AF is on her way. Does anyone know much about breast changes between ovulation and conception?

Jenny! This is only anecdotal but in ny cycles my first sign of af is my boobs start getting huge! The month that I was pregnant my first sign was that my boobs didnt hurt or grow at all.
And 5 dpo is super early the little egg cant even implant for a few more days, maybe even a week.

@katemm I'm not really sure, but your doc can test hormone levels for you if you haven't had that done.
@kerlinky welcome! Hopefully AF stays away
@jenny 5dpo is still pretty early. How long is your LP normally? The chart below has helped me a lot. Progesterone naturally starts to decline midway through the LP, but I think if implantation occurs it increases again or holds steady.
I've learned that estrogen and my mood don't get a long very well because I always have a crabby day when it's surging.

Thanks Lalou
We got another session in last night yay! I was super crampy yesterday around 6 pm so I’m thinking that’s when I ovulated. Only issue is, there was barely any cm. It was wet but barely any. I used a softcups as well, hopefully at least some of the little guys made it up into the tube. Feel fine today. I triggered Thursday at 11 pm so that makes 19 hours after trigger. No crampy full feelings today so I’m pretty sure today is 1 DPO. I wore my Ava bracelet last night and was so excited to see a temp rise this morning and confirm ovulation, but Ava said my bracelet was blocked!!! WTH?! Now I don’t have a temp reading on the most crucial day. Pretty sure I’m 1 dpo though.

Morning all my ladies how's everyone doing?
@Kait any updates yet?
@lalou thanks babe but my attitude isnt always positive just trying not to be confused or concerned

As for me Ive been having a bit of a shitty time... I tried putting holes in a bottle yesterday and ended up cutting my finger through to the bone...

No updates from me really. 8 dpo. Having a little cramping this morning that I don't normally have, but it could be unrelated. Haven't tested yet, trying to wait until Wednesday or Thursday (AF is due Thursday). Here's my chart too.

And yikes! I'm sorry about your finger, that must be painful.

Sorry abt your finger too Ana. Feel better soon. Kai those temps look great. Jenny i think it was too early. It is almost time to poas with Kait as well. The dreaded tww@photomama.
I sent DH to buy some hpts yesterday and he brought me some drugstores blue dyes. I hate blue dyes tests. I have had evaps and false positives on them. And i saw what i believe to be a "ghost line" on it this morning with fmu. I had one last easy@home hcg test and that one is start bfn. So i ordered me some pink dyes one of amazon. I have also started cramping bad this morning. I used not to cramp before AF but last cycle which was my 1st cycle postpartum i cramped before AF. So im not too sure abt this cycle but im keeping the faith. Officially cd45 and abt 9-10dpo.

Checking in... I am cd12. Starting every other day sex. No positive opks yet but they are heading that way. Should be tomorrow or the next day I would think.
Cervix is high and cm is wet and slightly stretchy so I'm feeling good ;)
