Alex - Yeah, I was hoping this would be it too, but af arrived in full force this morning. Still no acne or PMS-symptoms, which I find very good. Barely any af-cramps either, but that's normal for me. I usually have pretty painless periods and always have. It would be quite fun to get the best christmas present. When TTC our son I got my bfp on december 26th.

Alex: here's hoping! I'm having to get used to my body all over again. Including how long and heavy/light af is. But my bbt thermometer comes in today so starting tomorrow I'll be temping every morning. And I'll start using OPKs soon because I have NO idea when I'm supposed to be in my fertile window! I'm gonna treat it like my cycle before birth control and start early. Get those days good and covered so no matter when I ovulate there's a good chance.

Ooh, Alex, everything crossed for you!!
My boobs are so sore, omg. I had a vivid dream last night about looking at a house to buy and talking about how much our son would love it (we have two girls between us) so maybe that’s a sign!

Pandorica it will be so exciting to get your bfp same month! How are you feeling about your kids having same birthday? It could be a possibility.

Southern How long is it your cycle usually? I’m sorry if I’ve asked this before, I don’t remember.

Vintage Thank you girl! Hoping to see your bfp in the next few days. Your symptoms are very promising!

AFM seems like I ovulated yesterday. Late evening I had SEVERE ovulation pains which I get from time to time but not as much. This place my o day on cd 11 which is happening for me this early about 2-3 times per year. Hopefully it will be a lucky one. I don’t temp any more but I got my temp this morning since I know very well were it would be if I already ovulated and it was as I predicted kinda high (36,5), which made me confirm that I indeed ovulated (keep in mind that I’m taking my temp every day for the past 3 years and I had a very stable pattern). Before ovulation I NEVER have this kind of temps. Also my breast pain started this morning which is ALWAYS a sign of 1dpo. All my bases are covered and at this point I can only hope that some strong swimmers met my egg!

Alex, I so hope this is your month!!! Actually, I hope we all get this Christmas.
I know I shouldn’t count myself as out at 9 or 10 DPO, but I woke up this morning to a very negative test, a lower and firmer cervical position, and a very not-pregnant feeling. I felt so sure yesterday! My boobs are still sore, but that could just be an old pms symptom becoming normal again. Oh well... I’m only a few day’s from a new cycle, right?

Alex - I don't know to be honest. My EDD with my son were september 8th, but he was born nearly 2½ weeks earlier on august 22nd. So that would be both odd and fun at the same time I guess.

I posted a picture for tools, and of course now I think I see something. Pretty sure it’s just the evap, though.

Alex: oh I hope this is it for you! Fingers crossed!!!!! And as for my cycle, before I was on birth control I had about a 27 day cycle. Very rarely a 26 or a 28 day one but super rare. I even immediately went back to that after getting my cycle back at 9 weeks post partum with my daughter despite breastfeeding for an entire year. Fingers crossed for us both!

Vintage don’t count on me when it comes to faint lines. I somehow always manage to see lines lol hopefully yours will get darker. Is still too early hun!

Southern sounds like your cycles are stable. I’m sure it won’t take long till we see your bfp!

Ugh, another definite negative today. I think I’m out for the month. September isn’t a bad month, right??
