You might as well scream your head off and enjoy every moment!! But I do understand your reservations, as well. Your sounds so promising! I am so happy for you and your dh!!

Thanks, I think it is too! Ovulatory that is. My temp this morning sucks, but I am pretty sure it is off because I got up to pee and then went back to sleep about an hour and half before I temped. : I suck, I always screw up my chart at O time. I will get an accurate temp tomorrow dang it!

SONGBIRD! : : Congratulations! I understand maybe feeling like it's not real... I imagine if I ever finally get a BFP I will be pinching myself until the baby's actually born. :

Snow~Pea, I know just how you feel about the stupid temping. I always seem to screw it up either right around O or right around when AF is due. Blah.

i was really happy with it. at first i thought it smelled like mint, but i think my brain was playing tricks on me (b/c the color i was painting was sage green). there is still a little paint smell, but it really isn't bad at all. next time i want to try out the no VOC paint.

So I am using OPKs for the first time ever. Does the line today look darker that yesterday? (2x posted)

Yay! So should I test twice a day then, or just once a day? I only have 5 more tests left and I don't have money to buy more...

binkin, nice temp spike .

kali, I am not sure, I've never had any success using opk's. But I'm sure someone here will know.

Well, I think the ideal is as dark as or darker than the control line, right? So ideally you test twice a day, once at noon and once at 10pm. But I have found if my urine isn't concentrated that they always come up negative, no matter what. I think as long as you're spelunking every day, you could probably get away with one per day sometime in midafternoon?

Snow~Pea, thanks! I'm anxious to see what tomorrow will bring in terms of temps. I am thinking maybe I O'd yesterday and we didn't get any Special Spelunk Time in, so like... maybe I missed it AGAIN. But I used the Instead cups, plus everything else this time, plus I am 99% sure I've ovulated already which means it's definitely much earlier in the cycle than usual. And all of those are good things regardless of what happens, right?

binkin, I think your timing is great whether you o'd on mon or yesterday! The day before is just as good if not better than the day of. And yes, it is awsome that your cycle is getting shorter!

We're using no-voc in the house we're building. I don't think it smells much at all!

congrats songbird!

binkin: If you had good cm then those good 'ole boys are already up there waiting. No worries on not getting in that last nookie!

Oh, here's a link to my chart for the first page:

Hey, FF gave me crosshairs! I ovulated monday, so my test day is 11/09 because I only have a 12 day lp. Wish me luck! How's everyone else doing?

My OPK from this morning:

http://i33.tinypic.com/vfif0k.jpg


Um.. is this positive? Or almost????
post #398 of 414
10/30/08 at 2:08pm
I would consider that almost positive.
post #399 of 414
10/30/08 at 2:26pm
I would say its almost positive. I have a bunch of almost positive OPk's over the course of my last cycle but trust me when I say, YOU WILL KNOW when its positive. Its VERY DARK!

Well, I'm officially still in the club

I felt very postive this month. DH works out of town and he was home during all the right time this month and it still didn't work.

I feel horrible, broken and that my body is failing me...
