Hi everyone! Just checking in.

This is the only place I can brag about this to ladies who will understand. Today, I had EWCM that stretched more than 12 inches. Holla! Too bad we're not going for it this cycle, but I'm really happy about my cm. Usually, I get a 2 to 3 inch stretch at best. Yay for stretchy EWCM.

CLH darn, I was really thinking you would have good news. This whole waiting thing is so frustrating.

This cycle I'm going to try and BD every day that I can, starting in the next few days. Then, hopefully, keep doing so right through O. I'm not saying that it will work out, but I'm going to try.

I would start tonight, if I could! But, I already promised to babysit.

Oh that's interesting! It would be a problem for me though, as donor guy has a very hectic work schedule...serious work-a-holic, so he usually only donates ONCE a cycle.. He seems to think once is enough, because I have brought it up before that there would be more chance if we could insem more times each cycle...but he always replies back something about "all it takes is one" blah. I know that can be true, but everyone on here is DTD daily around and after O...then there's me just doing it once

Maybe I can try get him on the day I actually get a positive OPK this cycle....but again that's difficult because he doesn't get any notice. I guess once I see the OPK test line beginning to get darker, I can let him know the next day will probably be a positive result...so he gets 1 day notice at least lol...

Had lots of EWCM the past couple of days, still neg OPK's, so looks like O is going to happen next week now I have spoken to donor guy today to let him know next week should be the right time, but no idea which day exactly.

So, my pattern is ++ OPK and then O next day. I took out the WCM near the +OPKs and FF moved my O date to Tuesday like you all said. My temp has jumped a bit when you compare to other charts.

Wow! Nice!

AFM- Just checked out TCOYF from the library. I need to dive into it because charting and OPKs freak me out. I feel really lost, but I'm hoping I;ll figure it out in the next few days. Got my BT in the mail today, so now I can officially start!

sounds like good genetics though. too bad he doesnt under stand that the "once" has to be at the exact right moment! lol good luck ovulating at convenience, JK! im sure it will work out, it will be that much more special.

AAM- i let DH off for good behavior. got my donation! lol

question- my post o temps are 98.1 and up, i took my temp after reading for an hour and it was 98.4!

so does that mean i ovulated this morning? it seems like it because my day temps are usually much lower than my FM temps. i wont mark it, but its nice to know.

Thanks, I know there is still a decent chance even if I only get to insem once a cycle...as long as it's around O time there is a chance, just not as good a chance as if I got to insem everyday around O time.

Well this week is going to be busy for me aswell as donor, so we have agreed on Wednesday being the only day we can really get together and insem. My OPK today with FMU was still very pale, but I think it was slightly darker than yesterdays, so according to previous months with OPK's it should be positive around Tuesday....which should be a good time as Im inseming on Wednesday right? And even if it isn't positive until Wednesday, that still should be good as the sperm can survive inside you for upto 5 days...and O should occur within 2 days of positive OPK so think I will still have a decent chance. hm?

I don't know because aren't you supposed to temp first thing in the morning before getting out of bed? I wouldn't temp during the day time at all.

I'm sorry, I really don't think that means anything. My daytime temps are always in the 98s even when my basals are in the low 97s. Even if all I'm doing is sitting up playing on the computer it's enough to raise it that much. You really can't read anything into a temp that isn't taken under the same conditions as your basal.

Wow! Sounds awesome!

I don't get much EWCM, and what little I do get is not very stretchy. I get tons and tons of watery instead. I hope this isn't hurting my chances. I don't think I was drowning in EWCM when I got pregnant last time, but honestly I don't remember.

No takers on threadkeeping? I will open a new thread now. Someone else upthread has it claimed for next week!

New thread is open! Come on over! Maybe I can move some of you for June AND July BFPs!
