Rak and Nasake welcome ladies!!! It is nice to have some new faces!! Good luck and hopefully we will see some positives for you soon!!

Mistique I am sorry it feels like af is coming. Hopefully she stays away and you get that positive still!!

Alex it can still happen with even one bd a few days before O. I find FF always does the day before a big rise. So if you had a slight rise the day after suspected O it will put that day as O instead. It is so hard to figure out if you don’t have a huge rise in temps right away. I am still hopeful this is it for you!!!

AFM: I am 8dpo today. Nothing really drastic going on. Noticed this morning that my chest is hurting and nips are sore. Usually they are sore right after O and then it fades as the cycle progresses. So we will see what happens. Staying hopeful as we timed it perfect, but also trying to stay neutral so I am not devastated if it doesn’t happen this cycle. Debating getting a couple cheap tests so I can test tomorrow or Wednesday. At the same time I kind of want to wait till Thursday at 11dpo since that is when my temp usually drops. Ugh these two weeks are torture!!!

Good luck ladies!!!

Oh I’m so sorry! I really hope she’ll stay away and you get a late bfp

Hey ladies! I guess I wasn’t seeing a faint line on 15 DPO because I woke up to AF this morning, 18 DPO. I’ll start another round of Clomid next week. I’m feeling pretty discouraged because I thought it had really worked this time. I had none of my regular PMS symptoms. My RE’s office also said that I most likely won’t be able to do an IUI this month as I will most likely ovulate on Christmas or the day after, and their office will be closed. So, they said my husband and I will have to use only intercourse this month.

So, while I’m feeling a little low today, I’m going to allow myself to indulge in some wine and chocolate, and take on tomorrow with full force and a positive mindset. Good luck to all of you ladies waiting on your BFP!

Here’s to the next cycle!

@Kahlan ok this line I do see you might have a dodgy batch of frer?! I hope you have a good result with the bloodwork

Congrats to everyone with the BFPs!
I've had 2 tests now, dpo 11 with white lines where the test line should be. Has anyone else had this before? Is it a bad batch of tests? The line is apparent immediately so not an evap. I'm confused! Haha

Hey ladies!
I am so sorry some of you are struggling with your guys. In talking with my hubby I have found it is just as emotionally draining for them each month too. He always worries of it not happening and him being the one letting me down. Maybe give your guys a little slack and ask how they are doing? Just a thought though I know it is frustrating.

LaLou I am glad you are taking a month of no meds. It can be liberating that is for sure. Good luck with all the tests!! Hope to see your positive soon!!

Punk I hope you see your positive soon!! The tww is the hardest!! You got this girl!!

AFM: I am officially 10dpo today. Nothing to report really. I have no symptoms at all. Usually my chest is tender and I am having cramps all the time. Not this time around. Just feeling normal. Guess time will tell. The only thing I have been struggling with is my left hip and lower back hurting. I think I did something to it though. It has been hurting for like a week so I doubt it is related to anything with ttc. Just waiting at this point. My cycles are usually 13-14dpo so only a couple more days before AF should be showing. If she doesn’t then I will test.

Good luck ladies!!!

Yay! I picked a good day to drop back in and check in you ladies! Congrats Shay! I'm sure it's a relief that the wait is finally over

Little update from me. I'm 13.5 weeks and we did NIPT so we found out this week that we are having a healthy, baby boy

Good luck ladies! You can do it! You never know which cycle is going to be the one

@emma I am doing good. Still don’t have many symptoms so that is kind of nice. Just trying to patiently wait till my first appointment the end of February.

I also O’d CD19 last cycle. I’m using vitex and trying black cohosh to hopefully improve my chances this cycle. I’m currently on CD8 and going with the every other day method and then planning to BD day of and 2 days following a positive OPK since my cycles have ranged between 32-43 days since removing my IUD. Best of luck to everyone!

Hi!

Thanks Shay for starting the board! Good luck for you and also campbellche! Crossing fingers for all of you!!

AFM: Days pass so slow....just starting the week 7 and waiting for the following appointment on Monday. The good thing is that stress at work is totally controlled, I have realized that maybe the stress I linked to the work was really the TTC stress.... or I am just changing my priorities
My last 'obsession' is that my resting heart beat measured with Fitbit was increasing and one week ago started dropping and now I'm at levels I had when I just got the BFP... After panicking reading many cases of miscarriage I found one thread were many women said they suffered the same drop and everything was fine later. Crossing fingers is my case too !
