@lissa I had a feeling with everything you said as far as high temps and symptoms. So excited for you!!! That is great! Prayers for a rainbow baby!!!
@mama I just bought a cheap thermometer at Walgreens and i haven’t had any issues with it. I’ve heard that people who temp daily usually have to replace their thermometer or the battery every 6 months or so for accuracy.
@bug sorry to hear about the BD issues. I’m sure it’s just a phase. That is very frustrating, though.
AFM: I only remembered to temp on Friday so far this cycle. I camped all weekend, and I forgot again this morning. So I have no idea if things are normal. My RHR looks like it is, though. Hopefully I remember to temp tomorrow.

Thanks ladies! I think i'm going to be a complete wreck until there is a baby in my arms. I don't even want to call the doctor yet. I'm just going to take a few more tests over the next couple of days to see if its get darker before i actually believe it. Maybe i should call the doctor. What do you ladies think? My doctor typically doesn't do the serial HCG, they just test it once then make an appointment for me to come back around 6 weeks. I'm so happy i have progesterone suppositories this time around. Also...no idea when i'm going to tell DH. Last time i took a digital right after i saw the first line on the cheapy and it came up positive so i gave the digital one to him. Now i'm afraid to say anything until i take the digital. I'm afraid if i don't tell him, then he will want to BD tonight (its been a few days and he knows AF is right around the corner) -- but i'm afraid to BD. We BD the day before my chemical and also 2 days before my miscarriage in March. Everyone says it is safe to BD (even my doctor) but i just don't know!?!??!?
@Mama sorry about your thermometer. I don't use a fancy BBT one. I just use the normal cheap one from CVS pharmacy, although i have seen that they have a special BBT one near the pregnancy tests at CVS (its pink). Maybe try that one?
@Bug -- don't fret. When i got my BFP in March we only BD once at O-2 and this time we BD the two days before and the day after but not on actual O day. You never know! It only takes one time!
@Momma where are you in your cycle (sorry, i forgot....)?

Liisa Congrats!!!! I’m so happy for you! As for calling your doctor I would! Maybe they’ll run more HCG tests since you have a history? As for telling your SO that’s a tough one because I always want to wait to tell him but I never can I’m always to excited to wait. I told him when we get pregnant again I’m not telling him right away because I hate having to tell him it failed again.
AFM I did buy a cheap one but it’s only been a few months that I’ve had it and it’s the second time it’s stopped working or I’ve had to change the battery. I’m going to wait out the rest of this cycle and see what happens it’s just difficult not temping since I was getting so used to it. Hubby and I got in an argument last night about it because he looked at me and told me I don’t need to do it. It’s not what is getting me pregnant. I thought he was finally figuring out why this stuff was important to me but he isn’t. I feel like just giving up.
Momma I hope your cycle is normal for you this time and you get that BFP this time around.
Fingers crossed and

Hi girls! I took a digital test at lunch time and it's positive! I went ahead and called the doctor and made an appointment for 8/9. I will be about 6 weeks at that point so hopefully we will be ale to see something on ultrasound!!! Now just have to come up with a way to tell DH! Please keep praying for me -- i'm such high risk at my age and history of miscarriage.

Yay we got to BD took 2 tries tonight but finally.we were able to accomplish it. I am having what feels like ovary pain on my left side which is weird because Saturday I felt it on my right side. Maybe it's the Clomid that is making it that way. This will be the earliest I have O since I started tracking.

@Bug yay for O and BD! Sounds like you have perfect timing! My EDD is 4/1/2020. I ovulated on CD13 this time so the calculated due date based on LMP should be pretty close to actual. I guess we will find out in a couple of weeks. My line was a little darker this morning so i'm feeling a little more confident. I went to bed at 8 pm last night (exhausted) and had restless sleep and bad heartburn.

Sounds like the clomid did it's job for you! That's great! I can't wait to hear your progesterone results. I hope they are higher and if not i hope that your doctor will give you medication. I'm so super thankful to have the progesterone suppositories right now. And i hope you get a BFP in a couple of weeks!!!
