Thank you so much, and I'm taking everything you girls say and running with it. Carla, are you ttc or have you just btdt? I feel like I'm new to all this even though its my 2nd time around
My dd was a miracle as her dad/my late husband had suffered cancer as a kid and the chemotherapy was suppose to have made him sterile, WRONG! She is the absolute spitting image of him haha.
about the cm, after I wrote that, I read a lot about it, so I'm gonna try to look at that, though I'm still unsure. I'm going to establish the pattern, relax, and keep up with the clearblue opks, unless of course its my month (prayers) .
Ty girls for taking the time to help, and please excuse my bad grammar, as I'm typing from my Droid keyboard lol.
again, Ty and lots of prayers and baby dust for those needing it!
HI There-
First off you definitley need to relax a little bit. I never could, but I now see that it is the best way.
I used a clear blue fertility monitor which was pretty on point, but I still dbing days before and afterward just be be safe, After a few months you should start to see a sort of pattern and couple that with looking for the correct cervical mucus and you should be in good shape for telling when you ovulated. I would really try the timed intercourse for a few months before getting too concerned.
Please know that there are many things you can do in the future if you do not find yourself sucessful. For now, just keep track of things the best you can and do your part. I would set a time frame so it makes things a little more palateable- like if you are not pregnant in six months you will re-evaluate.
I wish you much luck and sucess!!
First, I think I was in a ranting mood when I wrote my feet stomping thread, but everything I said I was thinking quietly. Yes, Ive been charting and when I got my smiley was when I was suppose to O. You're completely right about everything, and CONGRATS! That makes me feel good. Thanks for the reply and I'm just gonna relax and go with it lol cheers to BFP's, and hopefully on a week ill het mine or af won't show (i didn't get a BFP with my 9 y/o until later than when I missed af?) I wish I knew more about cm to be able to tell, but I feel clueless in that department.. I swear I successfully tried and conceived before haha though I feel like this is all new!
Thanks again luvk!
I used the cb digital opk's, and they are always right on target for me! They're definately the most accurate! I wouldn't worry too much about only getting one positive opk, that's why they say once you get your positive to quit testing. Are you charting as well? That will definately answer your questions as to see if you for sure ovulated or not. As far as bd'ing, you did on all the right days. In fact, my dh and I bd'd the day of my positive opk and the next day, and we got pregnant. Currently 13 weeks! Just try to relax about it. I know, easier said then done, but to me it sounds like everything is ok! :) Hang in there, you have less then a week to go!! Good luck! :)
