@Lightning7 - praying it’s Implantation spotting. The cheapies can take ages to progress. Got everything crossed.

I hope it goes quickly for you!

Thanks ladies. Still spotting brown but now red on wiping. I think likely the start of AF, as it usually starts this way. As much as I want this to be my month I think it's over again.

Seeing a dr this week to ask her about possibility of endometriosis. I'm nervous to ask about it cause it makes it feel more real but reality is I have most of the symptoms getting worse as time goes on and also have 2 close relatives with it.

I'm also still waiting on referral to the gynecologist which got put in months ago because I was past the time they want you to ttc before getting investigated for infertility but haven't even had confirmation I'm on a waitlist or anything. I am guessing covid has slowed everything down. It's been over 2 years TTC so I just wish we could get some answers

I’m sorry @Lightning7. Thinking of you!

Will catch up more but popped in to post mg OPK which I am sure has gone positive? The Premom app says so! But my CB fertility monitor hasn’t gone peak yet -tested with the same pee??? What the heck? Does that seem strange to anyone. Seems like I’m surging for sure. CD13 and we BD this am so I guess we will just see what happens. This is our first try this month lol not great odds. Will try tomorrow too if we’re up to it. But I suppose it only takes once.

Hi everyone is it ok if I join this month? DH and I want to go for our fourth and final baby, and since our boys are all under 2 years apart we are hoping to go for the same gap this time so the youngest isn’t left out. Anyhow, I got my first pp period last month and will be ovulating this coming week, with my period due on the 28th. Which means I would probably start testing closer to the 22nd because I have no patience

We are super hoping for a girl this time! If anyone has any swaying tips I would appreciate them DH and I have been doing a low carb diet over the past month and I’ve heard diets and losing weight can sway girl. I’m down 10 pounds so far and DH is down 20 (men, lol). Hoping that helps!

Heaps of baby dust to everyone!!

6 DPO & having a lot of symptoms I had my first pregnancy. BBT has been 99 or higher for 5 days now. Trying not to get my hopes up or too excited though!

 

[Deethehippy]

I'm going literally crazy ladies!!. Yesterday afternoon I had lots of faint lines then this morning nothing on 2 FRER and cheapies and then this afternoon more lines.
Praying I am not experiencing a chemical and it is just early and my HCG levels are still low in some of my pee samples. I'm 10DPO today but FF says 9. Needing a miracle. The ticker is just to keep me positive... I expect I will have to take it down soon!.

Hope everyone else is ok?

My frer was neg so pretty sure it was just a shitty evap. I'm so done with pregnancy tests it was so obvious and pink even my DH could see it and he normally thinks I'm mental. I'll probably take another in the morning with fmu but pretty sure it's a bfn for me yet again.

I’ve got everything crossed for you too, hopefully we are just early and tests vary.

@Alligator - if you click in my journal link you will be able to see the saga of my lines! I don’t like to post these on off faint lines in the testing groups too much because it do it most months! Thank you and hope that you get some more BD time and catch the eggie.

After a few more faint positives, I started bleeding today so I think it’s a chemical
I had 3 early losses when TTC DS3 and not sure why it keeps happening. It’s so disheartening though.

Good luck to everyone still in this month, keeping everything crossed for you and will keep watching out and hoping for some sticky BFPs on this thread!
