I wish I knew what was going on with my body! I’m going to stay here if that’s ok with you guys. I know a few of you are on the other board I’m on also but I took a pregmate test strip this morning and swear there was a faint positive on it. I posted it also. Well I did a 4 hour hold and did another and I don’t see anything so I am going to keep testing just to see. But in order for me to be getting a positive HCG test I would have had to O by cycle day 9-11 and I didn’t start testing until cycle day 9 and got my positive opk on cycle day 19. So I don’t think it’s possible that the faint positive was a positive think it was an evap. Just confused. Guess only time will tell.
Momma are you actively trying this cycle? That would be nice if you actually Od early then it’s less waiting for you!
Good luck everyone

@JL glad that’s over with for you. Hopefully that will help you relax a little.

I got my BFP! Praying for a healthy full term pregnancy! I should be due around December 7!

@Shanta i'll list mine per your request. DH has perfect sperm and i'm ovulating normally. We have been pregnant twice (chemical in January and miscarriage @ 7 weeks last month). DH takes ConceptionXR Reproductive Health Male Fertility Supplement (this is basically a mix of antioxidants that helps to combat DNA fragmentation but doesn't do anything for motility, volume, or concentration because he doesn't need that). I take prenatal vitamin (nature made brand with DHA), Co-enzyme Q10 Ubiquionol (100 mg/day -- considering increasing this dose), B12, B6, calcium, magnesium, zinc, 1000 mg Vitamin C, Vitex, DHEA (this is a hormone supposed to help improve egg quality -- i take 25 mg a day, but you can take up to 75 mg per day), Myo-inositol powder 2000 mg plus 50 mg d-chiro-inositol, Vitex and low dose aspirin after O is confirmed. We also use pre-seed during fertile week and track ovulation with digital OPK from around CD13 through peak and i record BBT, CM and CP daily. I've also tried to eliminate caffeine and most carbs (sugar, sweets, bread, pasta, rice, etc.) while TTC. I drink almost every day a protein smoothie made with whole food, plant-based, low sugar protein powder, fresh berries and almond milk (in place of one meal).

Just got my BFP :D :D Still in shock!!! Due December 16, 2019 ..DH and I have been ttc for 5 months. Such a blessing! Praying you all get you BFPs!

@Mama your chart looks good!
@kelly I have had a temp dip, cramping, and spotting all at the perfect timing, but don’t feel pregnant in the slightest. Funny that when I have what I really feel was implantation bleeding, I don’t have all the “symptoms” I’ve had previous months lol.
@keke I usually have the opposite. Having sex will usually kickstart my period for me.

Friends, I can't stop smiling. I was sure I was yesterday, but wanted to wait until today to test. I thought our timing was so wrong this cycle. I also do NOT have the same early symptoms as I did when pregnant with my daughter. My only symptoms are cramps, thirst, gas and increased smell. Thank you for being so supportive this past year, it was definitely needed and grately appreciated. ????????????

@hd an almighty congratulations to you and happy and healthy pregnancy!!
@lissa thanks so much for all that advice. I was expecting my ovulation to be a bit whacky. If I go from day of negative test I’m only CD12. We’ll see. I’ll just BD when I can and hope for the best!

@kelly Congrats!! So exciting!!

@hdkelly Wow! Congratulations!
