@nts Good luck this month!!

Hello ladies. I think I'm about 3 DPO. I didn't really feel myself ovulate. The only symptoms I have is exhaustion, BUT my 2 year old is sick with an ear infection and has been waking up every few hours.

So I'm not really feeling good about my TTC journey and then today my cousin who has 2 kids and 2 miscarriages. Just announced shes due with a lil boy in September. I want to be happy but can ita frustrating and heartbreaking knowing that once again its not me making that announcement to the family.

@kelly I should be 1-2 dpo by now, but I’m pretty sure I’m ovulating today. My temp dipped very very low today, and I never had any symptoms of ovulation either. I hope your little one starts to feel better. I’m still not over whatever virus I’ve had since Saturday.
@bug sorry to hear. TTC is definitely a lot harder when you have people around you getting pregnant left and right.

@bug I feel your pain, our friends have just announced an accidental pregnancy to us and we’re really struggling. It gets frustrating but you’ll be giving your announcement soon!

AFM I’m in CD10, started my OPK testing today and my temp shot up but baby had a bad night last night so probs a fluke

Good morning ladies. Still no symptoms, except exhaustion. My temperature slightly dropped this morning. Is there a temp drop before possible implantation?

They say it’s hard to know the difference between an implantation dip and an estrogen surge, because they both usually occur between 3-6 dpo.

@beck I hope you catch it this time! At least it can live for up to 5 days so you have a shot!! I hate when they are gone the entire fertile window. I feel like the military is controlling our ability to procreate and it just isn’t fair sometimes. I pray we both get our BFPs sooner rather than later!

AFM I want to try to temp. What day do you start temping Day 1? If so, I missed that since I am Day 3. So you just take your temp before getting out of bed for the day and it’s a special thermometer, right?

@momma thank you so much for explaining this to me. I am going to do my best to do this accurately, but sometimes my daughter doesn’t sleep through the night so I am not sure how consistent it will be. Usually I have good indicators with cervical position and CM so this will just be a bonus.

@beck my calendars and cycle are all screwed up too. I think because of my mc last month, it’s throwing off my dates. My temps were abnormally high after AF. I’ve only had one dip in temperature, and that was yesterday. I’m CD17 and still feeling O symptoms, but no confirmed ovulation or temp rise. It’s frustrating. Why are our bodies so crazy!?
@shanta good luck this month with your IUI. Got every appendage crossed for you!!!
