I think she used it to hold sperm up by the cervix after donor insem. rather than using it for AF.

Welcome Gator-mom!

[Cherrie]

Gator-mom- im doing home inseminations so this time around i used the soft cups to hold the sperm by my cervix.


i guess ill take this next week's thread

[karmab]

yeah, cherrie was talking about using it for insemination, not af.

[WTHamI?]

Is it crazy that I'm super optimistic right now even though it looks like I'm going to ovulate on CD 44 or 45? lol It's such a long cycle, but I have the most positive OPK I've ever gotten this morning. I do have EWCM but it's not as plentiful as it sometimes has been so I think I'm going to get some preseed today just to up our chances a little. Managed to lasso DH the last three nights, he's tired but hopefully he'll man up and put out tonight and tomorrow too. I don't ovulate that often so I've gotta make the most of it, right?

Cherrie, now I kind of want to test at 10dpo! Awh geez, I know I should wait until at least 12dpo. Good thing I bought some Dollar Tree tests! LOL

[Cherrie]

lol I bought some answer ones, I get anxious when it comes to testing. But dollar tests are a smart way to keep you from going crazy and still saves money. GL though, to everyone!

[MelungeonMW]

Motray- Welcome!

Maxnmaizy and Lazy Kate Sorry that AF found you. Maxnmaizy I really thought it was your cycle. Darn!

Blanca: Congrats!!!

AFM: I thought that I ovulated on cycle day 14 but now on CD 16 my temp is back down again. Maybe I am having a fall back rise or maybe I haven't ovulated at all, because I think I may have been slightly sick or something yesterday. I felt like throwing up all day. CD 15 I had maybe a wee bit of watery CF and so far today nothing! Hmm what do you ladies think?

Just checking in So many BFP's!!! CONGRATS!!! And sorry to all those that AF has found. AFM: Still waiting for my DP to be ready. Quick recap, he would be fine with an oops and is fine with full "contribution" to CD 10. But the thought of "trying" stresses him out, and he basically wants to avoid. So here I am, fingers crossed that he will have just one dedicated and supreme spermie...for 13 months now lol. Ah well. I guess I vacilate on wanting another baby soon or waiting until our newest baby is done with her baby-ness. If that makes sense?

[Sweet.Bee]

WTHamI? for an O soon.

Thanks, everyone, for the feedback. It looks like FF agrees on CD19 as O day, so I'm now 3DPO. Could I be moved to Waiting to Know, please?

Last cycle I ovulated on CD25, so this is nice. And the abundant EWCM for the 1st time this cycle is making me optimistic. I just hope our timing was good enough.

[Gator-mom]

Thanks for the softcup explanation everyone! I feel silly for misinterpreting that..lol. Like I said..I'm new around here! I hope I learn a lot from you guys this month so I know what the heck I'm doing next month when the game is really on!

This month I have to figure out how many days my cycle is and make sure I can tell when I O!

[vivica2]

sweet.bee- stalking you ..and the chart looks great!

AAM- got a few BD in since we havnt for over a week, too bad im ad CD 8! lol ill just hold out for another week so DH is ravenous again when the game is actually on! lol

Good luck Wish I'd starved out DH for a couple weeks, lol. He told me after baby dancing tonight that he is DONE after four days in a row and don't even ask tomorrow. So really hoping my temp jumps up tomorrow morning because I think that's all the swimmers I'm getting this round. It seems that I get EWCM for about five days or so before I ovulate so I really need to not jump him at the first sight of it or he's going to be worn out before O day, lol.

[taraknyc]

Big congratulations to the BFPs!!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!

Fingers crossed to those of you testing... I hope you all don't mind but I am chart stalking

AFM- AF found me two days ago. I left two days ago for a vacation and won't be back until a day before I a supposed to O. Stressful!!! I am doing home insemination, so I really hope my dh will be on board. I'm waiting to O.

Cherrie- I hope this is a lucky month for you!!!

[Baby_Cakes]

Fingers crossed for those on the verge of O!

s for those of you found!


Honestly this cycle has been so weird for me - no real ewcm, no clear O shift, and fertile CM after O - and now crampies, nausea, vivi dreams about birth one night and then an awful dream about having a m/c -- I just feel like too many things have gone haywire for this to be our cycle.

I need zen vibes!

I think you'll have to wait a few more days to see. CD15 may have been a fluke -- you could have had a slight fever or something -- or, alternatively, CD16 could have been the outlier. You should know more after temping this morning, whether it's up or down, and by tomorrow morning, you should have a really good idea of where you stand. Sorry I can't be of more help, but that's how I see it!

for all those in the TWW, and much luck to everyone starting a new cycle and waiting to O!

[motray36]

Thanks for the warm welcomes!

Gator-Mom Im in a similar situation; we have a small window because of DH's work. It's like, the next few months or not for a few years. Blech. He is also out of town next cycle, so that shrinks the window even more! He's in "see what happens" mode....I'm in "I will do everything possible to make it happen this cycle" mode. We'll see who wins

MommyMatsumoto - Love dollar store tests. I am a compulsive POASer.

MelungeonMW - I agree with gringuitica, I think you need a little more data. Either CD 14 or 16 could be the fluke.

Sorry to everyone who got a visit from AF

I'm hanging in over here at CD4!
