June Thread Hostess: SoCaliMommy

Please put all changes in bold

The little * next to a name is just my way of keeping track if someone posts at least 1 time during the month.

Lifeguard & Finnegan's mommy~YYYYAAAAAAYYYYY

Amanda~Sry to hear about ur bfn, but there's always hope til the witch shows up : )

Kami~Thanks for the welcome! Sorry to see ur onto a new cycle . Hope u have a good day!

I would address more of u, but can't see the old posts since we're on a new thread, and that's all I could remember

ASM~ Guess I am in the Two Week Wait Not positive about that though, since my temps have been ALL OVER THE PLACE!!! I think it has a lot to do with nursing at night . I had a weird batch of + opks with no O too, but I blame it on the stupid answer daily tracker. I bought the midstream answer opks and got the most recent 2 + opks. Hope those were the real deal!

Oh, here is a link to my chart, too, if you can add me to the list http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/Daisy420

Updated List To Here



Daisy420~ maybe the other + opks were your body gearing up to O but then didn't.

Wow, congrats lifeguard and finnegan.!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the new thread socal.

I am 7 dpo, got a - on an IC this morning. Is it too early to get a + on an IC?

I think 7 DPO is too early to get a + on anything....
That is really early, I've read that 8 DPO is the average and best implantation day so 9DPO might be the (average) earliest you can get.

Hang in there and for you!

[TXmom2]

lifeguard~ Congrats on the +OPK's thats a great thing

I'm hoping I am actually 5DPO like my chart says. My temp is staying as high as I'd like, but it is still up. Anyone care to take a look and let me know what you think? (the 2 discarded temps are because of very late nights & sleeping in)

Hope June/July turns out to be full of BFP's for us all


Oh SoCal, can you move me to the 2WW please

[Tara2]

thanks for the shiny new thread!

Fun last night. First a flat tire, then DS came down with the pukes. He's 18 months. Poor little guy.

lifegard- i think i already said congrats but if not big congratulations (again)!

Ok so somebody tell me. If implantation occurred 4 days ago, a test should show it by now, right? Since the average is 2 or so days past implant to get a +?!

[hollytheteacher]

Forgot to ask to be moved to "2ww" but i'll just skip that and ask:

Can you move me to June BFP's!!!!

thanks

[SoCaliMommy]

hollytheteacher~ Congrats

Tara2~ You should be able to get a + by now .


rcr~ I agree 7dpo is a little too early to get a + even on a ic. for you.

Tara, just because there is a dip on the chart doesn't mean implantation happened then. It could have happened yesterday or today or 2 days ago.
It should take about 2 days for HCG to be in the urine enough to test on a very sensitive test but sometimes longer. I don't buy the implantation dip theory from FF, I just can't see the science behind it. I do know that it's normal for a woman to have a slight estrogen surge about 7 DPO which causes progesterone to sometimes drop a little bit, so the temp drops for 1 day and should go right back up. Your dip was 2 days long, starting at 5 DPO which I think is just normal temp flucations, maybe estrogen surge or something. Implantation can happen up to 12 dpo (sometimes later) and the average is 8 dpo. So hang in there, you are totally not out yet!! People get BFPs at 14, 15 DPO after getting BFNs....

(ETA, if you look at my chart, of course there is a one day dip at 8 DPO (FF has it at 9 DPO but I know I Od on cd15 not 14). LOL...I STILL don't believe in it though...

[rcr]

Congrats Holly!!!!

[katiecornflakes]

Congrats lifeguard and Holly!!

TXMom2, I peeked at your chart and I'd guess FF has it right. It's possibly ov wasn't until the next day but that seems less likely. Just my 2 cents!

[babygrey]

Thanks, socal for the shiny new thread.
I posted on the very end of May, x-post...
lifeguard-

crayfish- sorry about AF.

amanda- sorry bout the bfn. so early still.

RCR- oo, hopeful. Wonder, since you're not temping, if you might be a few more days po... Like, maybe your 1st peak on the monitor caught the end of your LH? Regardless, FX for you.

Tara, I hope this is your months.

Finnegans- do you have a lovely digi to show off or did I miss it somewhere?

congrats, holly!!

AFM... um.. I just can't decided if I've O'd or not. Talked to my RE. He doesn't have time to review my chart (ugh) he said sometimes opks are false +s w/ clomid, but that the fact I had - ones first is encouraging that they were real. He also said O'ing 3days post-Clomid would be weird, but not impossible. So. Clear as mud.
Every morning I wake up, hoping my temps will clear things up and every morning, I get more confused.

I don't like the fact that my temps are trending down (below cover today) at. all. I have a FF VIP and I submitted my chart to be reviewed, and the FF woman says I probably O'd (she also was really snarky about taking my temp @ the same time and getting 3 hours of sleep and making enviro conditions stable and blahblah... gee, thanks, could you tell my co-sleeping baby that? ), but only if my temp doesn't go down tomorrow. So, in a grand gesture of hope, move me to tww, but I'm not going to start progest until tomorrow, assuming my temp goes up. Does that seem crazy? Should I just trust FF and socal?

any opinions on my theoretic O date would be lovely. chart.
Thanks ladies.

ETA- txmom, I think FF is right about your O date, but maybe there's a possibility you on on CD28 instead?

[zwitterion]

Congratulations Holly!

Congrats, lifeguard!

SoCaliMommy - I'm so sorry. I was convinced it was finally your turn.

I was hoping I'd be announcing impending ovulation, too, but it didn't happen. My OPKs got *so* close to positive but never actually turned positive before fading. That was a few days ago and my temps are still low, so I obviously didn't miss the positive, either. I'm trying not to be really disappointed, but I am. I even had sore nipples, and my DH was sure after looking at the darkest OPK that it would be positive soon. I'm back to infertile cervical position, CF, etc, so it's going to be a while before I get another chance. I'm always so full of optimism, aren't it?

[beckyand3littlemonsters]

In a fit of AAM (what else?) I wanted to respond by first saying thanks for the stern talking to, lol. I probably need that. Second, I actually wasn't calculating based on the dip but by when my third layer (triphasic temps) started. In the tcoyf book (and I believe FF says this also) the triphasic temps are believed to happen around implantation due to extra progesterone circulating after the fact... or possibly hcG. In any case, thanks for the hugs.

And how's being pg so far?

I don't know what AAM is. LOL.

I think temps rising and keep rising is a great sign.
Your chart looks great, and you are still on the early side, so don't panic yet.
I've had awesome charts and it SUCKS to be disappointed when you get a BFN. Or 20 BFNs. or 100 BFNs. Been there. Sometimes the ugly charts get the prize. You will get your BFP one day. Really. Maybe not this cycle, but maybe next cycle. Or the following. Or maybe tomorrow.

Hang in there.


ETA - being pg is pretty OK. It's the calm before the storm I think. Thanks for asking!
