ITS POSITIVE. Have appointment booked next monday morning. I'm so happy that I am crying at my desk (quietly).

Well... AF arrived today. I'm going to head on over to the November group. I'll keep checking in here thought as I feel like I'm leaving some of my closest friends on CTP. Good luck with early pregnancies Dragonfly23 and Beaut1ful38!

Katyfootballmomma-ooh I bought my onesie as well when I brought it up! I actually got the advise from my pastor! Thanks I am praying and giving it to God! It will happen when he says.

Penny- the new job is family oriented. It’s everything I’m looking for. I am just confused as 9 months (if) I would need time off. That’s the part I feel like they may question. It one of those if I don’t keep trying and pick up again in 3 months will I be trying for another 7 months. Bc that is the cycle we are on now.

Hi Ladies!! Looks like the site is back up and running. I have been missing my daily check ins with everyone so I'm glad to see it back up. This new format is going to take some getting used to but it does look a lot more modern/updated with these internet times we live in.

Update: I started using OPK's today on CD9. Got a low but I was expecting that. If cycle goes as normal I should see highs for a few days now and then a peak sometime on CD14 or 15. I'm nervous about timing as it looks like DH is working two twelve hour shifts on my O day and the day after... That means we'll have to work extra hard to get those three days in a row around O day. I looked back on my charts and we don't seem to be BDing on O day so maybe that is what we need.

In other news my twin sister is taking her nexplanon out on the 30th and they are ttc for baby #2 starting after that. She got pregnant on the first try with baby #1 so I'm sure that will happen for her again. Hopefully our babies will be weeks apart and we can both be happy and pregnant together! Looking forward to chatting with you all again!

Angela83- hope to get a BFP soon. What did you do this cycle? How long have you been TTC?

Is there some way we call distress and worrying about the sperm getting to that golden egg?! I wish I could wave my.magic princess wand and say ta da ladies problem solved but i can't. What i can say yall, is that we've got to take it one day at time and take it easy. Easier said then done get it I'm dealing with the bfn demons myself. We've got to take it easy. but it pains me to see me and you going through the opk cp/cm checks, days till O countdown so much that it stresses us to the max. Our bodies need to be in a tense free zone. The physical strain that stress causes on the body is only thing it's going to do is make it harder on on our bodies to make a baby. So ladies, how are you going to distress in your next fertile window? Sleep in on the weekend? Diet? Go to the gym? Stay in bed relax with your SO/df/dh? Bring him coffee/breakfast in bed? Or vice versa? Take a warm bath and not to get so focused on the sex? the sperm? The egg? The timing?

Afm i am loosing hope in a good way.I'm 6dpo and I'm ok with af coming. Maybe right now is not the best timing or maybe its just my body's. Way of telling me to back off and go with the flow

@neomasie. You are more than welcome to test at 10dpo but don't be upset if it is a BFN so I think I would wait till you are 12dpo to test and if you are pregnant, the lines would be a lot darker.

@katyfootballmomma. I hear what you are saying with the whole tww but I would listen to your body. I would just go with the flow and let nature run its course. I'm not sure if you are willing to try but have you thought of taking a step back from the forums? I too feel the pain and suffering that other ladies go through each month with the ttc that last month I tried to stay off here (nothing against any of you ladies as I love all of you) but I needed to regroup my thoughts and start fresh in the new year. I am sure you mentioned this but are you taking anything to boost your chances?

As for me, still not much to report, temp rose from 98.1 to 98.2 and having creamy cm (finally) and last night I thought my sides under my armpits aching. Still using the progesterone cream and still figuring it out. Never got the chance to BD last night in case the egg was still good but I am hoping that with the last two times there was enough swimmers waiting.

On a side note, I just wanted to say that even though this site has been updated and all but I knew it was going to happen and was just waiting for it. See, a long time ago I invisioned that the ladies on the August, September, October, etc. forums who got their BFPs were able to post their ultrasound pictures minus the personal info for all the other ladies to see how far they are coming along. Is that weird to invision that?

Hello there ladies! I know I'm jumping in a little late, but better late than never, right? DH and I are TTC for baby #3, and this is our 3rd month at it. Today is CD 6 for me, and I just finished a round of Clomid that I had stashed away from my last REs office; I did the CD 2-6 regimen. DH is a Drill Sergeant, so we just PCSd to Fort Benning, GA and I'm still waiting on my initial appointment with the RE. If I conceived this cycle, I'd be due around the 23rd-ish of October. With how hard it was to get pregnant the first 2 times, I'm not exceptionally hopeful that we'll get another at all, but DH wants to TTC one more time before we adopt. I'm only 3 months in and I've already peed on SO MUCH MONEY ...

Guys i'm sooo scared to test! 11 DPO and i felt buzzing/flutters in my uterus this morning. I'm currently very dizzy and lightheaded, borderline nauseous and like im going to have diarrhea.Having heart palpatations off an on. Those may be from the coffee i had this morning because i needed a pick me up. But I had them for the past 2 days off an on, without coffee. I really want to wait until AF but i'm also on the edge of my seat!!

Good Morning Ladies I can now Confirm Ovulation has occurred Now just hoping we caught that egg!!! My mind is more at ease. Have a Great Weekend Everyone & BabyDust 2 All
