Countrybound, sounds like your pregnant to me! Congratulations! Miss AnnThorpe - congrats to you, too! How many days into your LP were you before you tested?

[heatherh]

Woo hoo!

[msgoodbuns]

Oh, Heather. About the LP length. The only way I get mine to increase is to take progesterone (vaginal supps). I"ve gone from 7 - 9 days to typically around 13 with the Progesterone supps.

I'm irritated today. I'm 7 DPO if I O'd last Weds, and 5 if I O'd on Friday (FF changed my O date from Weds to Fri). Anyway, I'm already spotting and a bit crampy today (had a teeny weeny bit of brown spotting yesterday, almost so little that I thought I was imagining it). Anyway, I'm not taking the progesterone supps this cycle (was a raging emotional witch last month), but did use the progesterone cream last night (which I'll use until AF shows, if that's her plan). I'm assuming that I'm having another short LP, and that AF is around the corner. What a pisser.

I guess I am here and didn't even know for sure until this morning's temp confirmed. FF says I am 4 DPO so I o'ed on July 29th and I am going to have to agree. This was a record early o for me but luckily we did BD with okay timing. I am pretty calm during the 2ww usually but I can't help but hope this will be the magical cycle.

CONGRATS TO THE BFP's!!!: :

All I have to say is that if I am not pg then I am going to have a wicked AF! My lower back is killing me and she is not due until next Wednesday!! I am trying to hold off until Saturday to test! Keyword there is trying!!!

[yogamama2]

BigFN this morning - like not even a shred of hope lol! I'm actually much calmer about it than I expected to be. I think my temps this month sort of prepared me. I'm 12 dpo, so I'm pretty sure I'm out. Well, hopefully I WON'T be seeing many of you ladies through the next month - may more BFPs be on their way on this thread - but if so, at least I'm in good company. Now I'm just waiting for AF to show up on Sunday and we begin again. How long is still in the "normal" range for ttc? Is it 6 months, a year? This was month 3 and with my dds I conceived in the 1st and 2nd months of trying, so I'm pretty sure everything is fine - but with every month that goes by I get a little more concerned.

There is still hope! I would just find out from your OB about the "normal" range. I know that I read that if you are under 30 = 12 months, over 30 = 6 months before seeking medical advice. But every person and dr is different.

Congratulations to the BFPS!!!!!

I'm still planning on waiting until Sunday to test. With all the BFPs coming up I'm getting so excited about testing.

Yogamama - I feel the same way, this is our third month trying and I'm only 24, so I feel like I should have excellent fertility. So far I'm accepting that it is normal for it to take a few months, but when you have perfect timing and no pregnancy you start to wonder why.

[msgoodbuns]

Yogamama, your temps are kinda bouncy this month. How is your stress level? You might want to incorporate some acupuncture or meditation into your routine, to help balance things out. I'm still keeping my fingers xxx'd for you.

How old are you? Have you had fertility testing done? A hysterosalpingogram (which checks for blocked tubes, shape of your uterus, etc.)? You might want to do that, just to make sure that you don't have any underlying issues that are affecting your fertility. Once you get the all clear, then it's just a matter of timing, etc.

Good luck!

[Kooksmom]

Ok, question ladies! I feel like I have paper cuts on my nipples and I noticed a little clear fluid coming out of the left one which is the more sore one. I have been done BF for over a year. Has anyone ever had this? Keep in mind I have very little sensitivity in this area.

I am with you on waiting until Sunday! I have to work, so I probably will not be able to post until the afternoon/evening! That is unless I get a BFP!! And that I can actually hold out that long!!

[countrybound]

I just took a clearblue digital test and EPT digital test... both said "Pregnant"! I'm so happy.. thank you all so much for looking at my last test!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck to all you mama's! Here's hoping you all get your BFP's soon!

[yogamama2]

Well, I just returned from Walgreen's where I picked up a regular BBT - plus OPK's and HPT's for next month as well! Now is the part I hate, waiting to start over on day 1 (because until AF actually shows, I always have that glimmer of hope!). I keep waiting for the cramps to start, but nothing so far.

I'm 33, but I've had 2 dds (#1 when I was 28, #2 when I was 30) and have had no issues since. I conceived both of them easily and quickly - so I'm still hoping it was just bad luck this month. The first 2 months I'm not sure our timing was that good - this month I was sure. I'm pretty sure I'm O'ing because my OPK's are pretty clear. I don't have an OB/GYN - haven't seen anyone but a midwife in years - but I'll contact my midwife and see if there is anything else she can recommend. I also teach yoga - so I'm actually getting some good "calming" time in - although I was thinking just this morning that I should maybe call my accupuncturist! I used her during my last pregnancy, but I know she does fertility work as well because we discussed it then. I was thinking of hunting down a naturopath as well. They're pretty few and far between where I live, but there must be one!

Thanks for the input - and I'll be checking in!

Namaste.

Congratulations to all the BFPs! This is a lucky thread!

I'm also holding out til Sunday to test, at 11 DPO. I know that I tested neg on 10DPO before and pos on 11, so I think this is the best route for me.

My chart is mocking me! Tempting me to test though!

[CNutty]

Michelle... you chart looks a lot like you previous prenancy chart!! Ill for sure be stalking you!
