spin- what's your temp doing today? is it still up?

tear- that is confirmed. your first truly + opk is usually 12-48 hours before the actual o, on avg 36 hours is my understanding.

Yes ma'am!! I got up to 36.8 on my new BBT thermometer! This is so exciting. Honestly, DH and I really think we did it this time.. We've BD'd a ridiculous amount this last week or so, just to cover it. My only fear this cycle is that my luteal phase won't be long enough. All I know is that there isn't anything more we could do to get me pregnant this cycle.

Good morning everyone!

9dpo for me today...temp took another jump up this am....I think my chart is almost screaming at me that I am preggo....lol- but I am trying not to get my hopes up too much...it just looks so very much like my previous preggo charts did- its hard not to get a little excited...especially with my hubby checking out my chart everyday and telling me HE thinks I am knocked up!! lol!

[myk]

well, the good news is i can go for sushi.

the bad news is, AF showed, i'm upset. i know i shouldn't have gotten my hopes up but it's so hard. i got pg 3 times SO easily. the first two weren't even intentional. DD took about a week of trying. now that i'm with DH it's just not happening. we tried hard for 6 months, not try/not avoid for 18 months, and now trying hard again. but since we haven't been trying hard for long, i doubt he's going to be willing to get checked out yet, and i totally feel my clock ticking.

i'll buy myself a BBT today and start charting. that way at least i'll have evidence of whether or not i'm ovulating.

probably 5dpIUI, which would be Monday I think. I don't want to wait too long and start to question things. argh!

btw - i am already feeling the insanity from the progesterone supps. I was just simply weeping this morning. DH was hugging me and saying "what's wrong?" and I couldn't tell him. I just kept saying "I don't wanne FEEL like this again for two weeks!" I think the cloudy cruddy weather doesn't help. sigh...This stuff is HARSH.

Hi Ladies! I've been MIA trying not to obsess.
I'm on CD12 and got a - OPK this morning, my temp was crazy low - like deceased low.
Awesome.

Tear - to you, I'm sorry you feel like crap. I hope you get a BFP soon so you can at least like crappy and pukey with good reason.

myk - I so know how you feel...my first 2 were pretty easy and now, ugh. Hopefully this will be our lucky cycle.

Kingsdaugther - for you!

Karma - a + Opk! Yay. How's that ovuwatch syncing up with the OPKs?


Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

[Tear78]

Thanks, ladies! :

karmab...did you put yourself in WTF is Going On? so you could be in a new category and hide from AF? I'm on to you!!!!

finnegansmom, oo, oo, temp drop before O?

I think FF is possibly giving you that date because of the few temps prior to your positive OPKs. But that second temp jump is sooo confusing... I really thought you O'd Monday... Now, I'm not so sure! The important thing is that you have both days covered!

I don't think so, I've had - OPKs the last 2 days...but who knows. It was weird low, maybe it was earlier? It was 96.63...that's pretty low IMO...

[CLH_X3]

Just a quick Q really ..

I'm starting to get a cold. I can feel all my sinuses starting to block and ache and I'm getting a sore throat but I don't want to take anything tht will interfer in TTC or ruin my chances this cycle as I think my timing has been pretty good this cycle...

Any suggestions on what I can take ? Oh and a very important Q ! Will it mess up my temps ??

(it better not!!!!) haha

I just don't want to mess anything up at all!

[sleepingbeauty]

Check out my chart. My cold/fever-thing messed with it a little bit (the fever days are recorded but not plotted). T^T I also noticed a lot of "fertile" signs. Maybe that's a coincidence.

I've been taken advil to keep the fever down. Now that that part of it has passed I'm taking Dayquill/Nyquill. Good stuff. I was tripping so hard on the Nyquill last night. OH was cracking up watching me.

[karmab]

clh- that's a tough one. maybe someone knows something, but i think any decongestant will dry you up. try saline nose drops. some folks swear by neti pots, i dont think i would like that though, at all. hey- do you have volcanic ash overhead over there?

fm- the ovwatch is closer this month, but it's still off. it says i will o mon or tues, but i will be very surprised if i dont o overnight tonight/tomorrow, showing on my chart either sunday or monday. i think it's a decent backup, but i wouldnt rely solely on it, because if one werent doing temps, cm, cp, opks, one wouldnt realize that it's wrong, and if one wanted to wait till close to o, say to maximize dh's contribution, one could miss it. luckily, not the case with this one. i have learned, they say you need a new sensor each month, but you dont.

tear- SHHHHH!

spin- i wouldnt be surprised if you had o'd on cd12 or 13 last month. you just cant tell because you dont have enough temps before that to see, but if that's the case, your lp is good.

[finnegansmom]

CLH - Do you have allergies? My family is suffering here (except me).

I can't remember the last time I took cold medicine to be honest, It's not really BFing friendly but hot teas and hot compresses on my face (when my sinuses hurt) always feel good. Soup? Lots of rest and tv in bed? You can always temp and if you're running a fever you can discard the temps..

Karma - Interesting. I'm off to stalk your chart now. I still can't figure out how that watch works, it seems pretty cool IMO. I like the idea of predicting ovulating without the use of mucous and urine.

[CLH_X3]

Karma - my cm is basically dry now anyway. It was creamy this morning and now it's dry and I had a really - opk this afternoon!

Yes we are meant to!, no plane going out etc but the sky doesn't look any different to me. It was nice and sunny today!

FM - nope! No allergies what so ever! I'm hoping it's just going to be a head cold, I very rare get anything worse! Lucky I got the next couple days of work now so il get some bed rest!

I just don't want anything to effect my temping! or anything to effect the effort I put in this cycle

You might try Mucinex, it helps keep things from drying up...

[SaraBravo]

sorry for so many question

Clh- no clue what you could use mucinex sounds good though.

Afm- ok maybe I am just wondering too much but I had 3 temp jumps. The 1st was by .4 the second my .2 and the 3rd by .3. Why three jumps? Is that normal?

[mumma cop kaz]

Okay so remember my positive OPK on wednesday that was gone three hours later when i tested again, well I woke up this morning thinking i should get a nice high temp and crosshairs, my temp was 36.0 which is low for those who dont temp in degrees, so I was planning to move to WTH is going on but decided to do an OPK and got a blaring positive and confirmed it three hours later with the expensive digital opk YAY it was sooo nice seeing a smily face!! So i guess im ovulating hey!! We dtd yesterday am and this morning just for fun (before i got the pos OPK) we will dtd when i get home from work tonight in the hope to catch the egg but i dare say i will be moving to the tww tomorrow!!
'Chanting' ''swim boys swim!!"

[hollytheteacher]

I think i ovluated/am ovulating today. Won't know for sure until after the fact of course but I was wondering if ppl could look at my chart and let me know how you think it looks.

this is my first month charting so i am just looking for feedback. I feel pretty good about it. Def had tons of EWCM today and my cervix is high soft and and open! Oh and we dtd about an hour ago (as well as yesterday night too).

Assuming I did O today or am tonight....what should I expect tomorrow for a temp? Something slightly higher? Way higher? Just curious.

Oh and my chart is up next to my name now so you can go click on it there

I'm not testing unless I make it to 14 DPO with no AF. I've had inklings of that "I'm 8 DPO! I could possibly maybe get a + by now!" feeling, because 8 DPO is where I have broken every. single. cycle but I'm not really all that excited right now. I'd love to be pregnant, or we can just try again, I guess. I don't know. I've been really busy and haven't been thinking about it as much this round, plus I keep assuming that our timing was wrong AGAIN so I just feel calm about it. I might not feel that way next cycle when I'm temping again and trying from the beginning, though...

Luckily I'll be really busy this weekend-- a friend in town for morning coffee tomorrow, then meeting another friend for a late lunch or early dinner, then cleaning before Sunday because after right DH and I go to a Red Sox game (GO SOX!) we're hosting a bi-weekly poker game for a bunch of our friends! So yeah... no time to obsess for me. And then today, Monday and Tuesday I'm working extra hours at work (leaving in a few minutes) to cover for a co-worker who's on vacation... so really all I need to do is get through Wednesday without testing, and that won't be so bad. Or maybe I'll just test on Wednesday. 13 DPO, 14 DPO, no big difference.

I AM SUCH A LIAR.

Tested today at 9 DPO, obv a huge BFN, whatever. lol. I should have known that would happen. I shouldn't keep my cheapies in the bathroom because I get impulsive and grab them! Now I only have two left And save-on-tests takes FOREVER to ship, at least to me, so I end up buying the expensive ones at the store. (I need to find a Dollar Tree near me...)

I have some general crampiness going on, and my last few cycles have only had 10-11 day LPs, so it's possible that AF is going to show tomorrow or the day after. I guess we'll see. If it's not this cycle, maybe the next
