Hi ladies AF arrived today. If I concieve this month I will be due around 14th Nov. i'm going to try to be less obsessive this cycle. Lol.

Hi again Matariki!! My due date would be the 17th if I conceive this cycle, I'm trying to get my husband to take a week off work on ovulation week because he's usually only home 4 nights a month so we keep missing it!!

@JL I totally understand your pain. I'm only 2dpo and even though I know logically it's WAY too early to symptom spot but apparently logic and the TWW don't go together haha

@Mat if you figure out how to be less crazy please pass on that info.

Speaking of being crazy... I keep looking at my app and stressing we didn't BD at the right times. I know the whole "sperm can live up to 5 days" and whatnot, but I'm stressing that we only managed to BD once in the 24hrs both before and after my solid smiley.

Everybody left the October and I'm all alone over there. I posted this this morning and since theres not activity on it I'm jumping ship to this board and more than likely will be onto another cycle soon.

Post from this morning:

Unfortunately, I'm feeling out. My temp dropped drastically today. I am only 12dpo. I decided not to waste my money today on test since there was a big drop 98.10 to 97.72. No spotting yet but tomorrow is 13dpo and I typically start spotting then. I am so sick to my stomach with heartache bc I'm so tired of trying so tired of not getting my bfp and on top of this. I face my coworker tomorrow who wants to show me her ultrasound pic of her lil peanut with a strong heartbeat. I'm beyond happy for her but it stings.

Good luck ladies who have began their TWW again. And to those still with AF, I have a feeling I'm not far behind again.

Hello ladies. I'm Heather, back again :) Today I am cycle day 12. I usually ovulate on day 13 or 14. I haven't had any EWCM yet, which is unusual. My OPK was negative this morning, I'll take another one tonight. I've been taking them every 12 hours to help pinpoint. Good luck ladies.

Hey @bug welcome to the next cycle with those of us that didn't make it last month. My fingers are crossed for you that you are not out yet even with the temp dip. You're not out until the witch shows her face! I'm on CD 4 and will likely not O for another 2 weeks. Right now i'm looking forward to my appointment with the fertility specialist next week.

@JL welcome! That’s a long time with no O or AF, so congrats on finally ovulating!!
@matarik I tell myself I won’t obsess every month. Then about 5 dpo hits and I can’t help it. Lol!
@ heather We are cycle buddies. Good luck!
@bug I’ve been in nonstop meetings all day and was just about to check on you on the other board. I know you are feeling down and out, but I really hope AF doesn’t show!!

Thanks lissa, and momma. However. I think shes coming. I did a qtip test and there was bright dark red blood on it. I just wanna give up. I am so tired of trying. I think I'm definitely going to take the next 2 or 3 cycles off. My so doesnt even want to BD. Hes putting off his SA. I feel like a failure. I feel like I'm cursed to be a childless woman

@bug There’s nothing wrong with taking a break. Might help ease some of the stress. But don’t give up completely. I know plenty of women who felt that way and were trying for well over a year, but it finally happened for them. My aunt was unsuccessful for 6 years before they got on fertility drugs. Now they have 5 children! Don’t lose hope!

Hi everyone!! So excited to have ttc buddies! Word vomit coming. Sorry!
So I think I am further along dpo wise. I started having possible implantation bleeding an hour ago. I posted photos in the gallery (don’t want to post them here because not everyone wants to see that lol). Anyway, I didn’t start testing for ovulation until I saw EWCM on 1/31(6dpo+)and that result said high fertility on my app so I am thinking I may have ovulated that day or earlier instead of when I was thinking on 2/2 (4dpo). Luckily we BDed 2 days before that day so we might have caught it. Plus all my strips read within .04 of each other for the first 2 days. I know this spotting might be a good sign, but now I am just nervous something is wrong. Gonna go check my notes from past pregnancies to see if I had something similar.
