@twwtoolong. AF showed her ugly head full force on Sunday. I have come to terms with it. I think that test was a evap or a dye run, whatever that is. I hope and pray that AF stays away from you. Keep me updated on how things are going. Moving on to August. That month and September is our birthday months. Would make awesome birthday present.

So sorry to hear @dragonfly- on to the next one for a birthday baby!

@twwtoolong, I had those sharp pains and cramps throughout my tww, from 2dpo onwards, which really told me something was different!

My lines are getting darker, I went in for a blood test this morning, I go again on Wednesday morning to see if the hcg levels are progressing properly!

@ElkeHH. That's okay. Whatever is meant to be will be. Told him about my positive and you can hear how sad he was as to how close we actually were and I thought for sure this time was the one. Hope your bloodwork goes well and congrats again.

Sorry ladies to post in July forum but i had a question that maybe some can shed a light on for me.

QUESTION: So DH has been getting his own advise from other males whose wives are now pregnant. But we are debating on "sperm mature" Does sperm mature every 3 days or every other day. Since we are doing SME TIMING he thinks we are not letting him "build up". But SME says every other day, then on the 1st positive opk, do 3 days in a row skip a day then go again. As far as we know no sperm issues. What is your suggestions/opinions? As i should be ovulating here very soon!!!

Beautiful - It actually takes 90-100 days for sperm to mature, but there is a continual supply. Withholding can improve the number of sperm, but the longer you hold the more mis-shapen/sluggish they can get (lower morphology). However, if there is no issues with his sperm, the more the merrier, there is no need to hold. My DH had boarderline morphology, but count and motility are good and they have told us a minimum of every other day, but the more the merrier!

Elke- thanks for letting me know that! I hope we finally get our BFP this month, it's just been so long, it's hard to believe that it will ever happen!

Congrats again, fingers crossed your bloodwork looks great!

@twwtoolong. Thank you for the info as I was wondering the same thing.

Hi ladies..just wishing you luck!.

Congratulation to all the BFPs and good Luck NeXT month to those moving on to August 2018

I missed my period yesterday and the tests are stronger than ever. No doubt I am pregnant. I am due sometime inbetween the 16th and 25th of July 2018. So happy!! We do not want to know the sex of the baby this time.
First prenatal appointment is booked for December 1st at 8 weeks.

Good Luck to all of you

Congratulations to all the BFP and those moving into next month I'm sending all the baby dust vibes your way.

My bfp was confirmed yesterday and I'm 4+2 with an estimated due date of 23rd July.

I'm calling the fertikity clinic today (we had a little help this time round and was prescribed clomid) they'll book me in for a 7 week scan and all being well will discharge me back to the go and midwives for the rest of the pregnancy.
