1) I'm on CD 34 and everything I pee on is negative. I have no idea what's going on, but I can't stand the false hope. 2) I guess I'll keep testing until my period shows up? I really don't know. 3) yeah, they got their own thread the other day. I'm not a happy camper. 4) not until the day period is due. I detected a CP by testing a few days earlier than that once and I'd like to avoid that again if possible. I'd rather not know, honestly.
Will maybe start OPKs this week if I ever stop bleeding.
I had blood work done and it was "normal", but I called back and got the exact numbers. It looks like I didn't ovulate. Considering it was done on CD34, that's frustrating. So, DH & I made a kind of plan. 2 more cycles of no intervention, then in October I'm setting up an appointment to discuss intervention. I don't have infertility coverage right now, but I can switch to my insurance starting in Jan, which has coverage. I feel better knowing we have a plan in place, but I'm still super frustrated that even 3 months after the D&C that was supposed to make everything normal again, it's still not. DH said "well how long are we going to try" except I don't even feel like we're trying right now because everything is so unpredictable and I don't think I'm ovulating.
I usually try to hold off a bit, and then cave around 6 DPO. Which is completely ridiculous given I didn't get a + w/ N until 13 DPO.

1) TTC #2, cycle 2, CD 20
2) Probably not testing until next week, if at all
3) We had good intentions of giving it our all this month and then...didn't. Work has been crazy for both of us and doing the deed really frequently just takes a back seat. Maybe next month.
4) If we are really trying and I think it's a true possibility, I test pretty frequently starting around 9-10dpo. This month I will try to not test so much since I don't think I'm pregnant.
3. If my body goes as normal, I'm going to ovulate a week from next Monday. Which means a lot of sex at my sister's, my aunt's and my MIL's if we're going to have a chance. I'm not sure if H is prepared for that-- he's normally a prude about where to have sex. But a May baby would be perfect!
4. I started testing at 7DPO last month, with no symptoms. I may try to hold off this month. The squinting was starting to mess with my eyes.
TTC #2, waiting to start cycle 6 - CD42, no period, no positive test. I started progesterone to get going, I don't think I ovulated this cycle, or maybe did reeeeally late.
No testing.
I have an increased dose of Femara starting this cycle, so I have a little hope that maybe this will work. I just wish my stupid cycle would start so we can get going. I got my H to agree to try IUI if this doesn't work after a couple of cycles.
I used to start testing like 3DPO, but I've caught two false positives/chemical pregnancies like that, and I can't handle it. Also, by like 11 dpo, I start imagining nonexistent lines on the Wondfos, and then pee on FRERs, which gets expensive. I wait now until my period is due.
2) I'll probably wait until Monday or Tuesday, my mom is currently visiting and I don't want to test while she's here.
3) I went from really excited last month, to feeling much more apathetic. I tested way too much and way too soon last month, and I have major line-eye. It's too much for my delicate emotions!
4) I peed on everything in sight last month, but I'm trying to hold off from now on. I don't think I want to know about CPs. We'll see how much self restraint I have.
I'm trying not to stress but I'm pretty sad about all of this. Back to Clomid again this month. My doc wants to double my dose, do ultrasound monitoring and add a trigger shot. Basically, this is the point where insurance stops paying and things start getting more expensive.
I typically test on 11dpo. Then I start spotting on 12 dpo.
2. Nope. We had awful timing ( we were visiting my in-laws in a camper with them so no sex) if we get pregnant this month it will be a miracle. Lol. I'll probably test next week.
3. I was so frustrated that this was actually the first normal cycle I have had pp with clear fertility signs and we couldn't do anything about it. It felt like a waste.
4. Well I always say I'm going to wait until my period is late but I usually start testing at 10dpo. I just bough a 50 pack of wondofos off of Amazon.

1. TTC #2, Cycle 1, CD 5 (H was OOT last month, so I don't have to count that one, right? )
2. No testing this week. Looks like I could ovulate during our trip to Sonoma!
3. Lots of feelings, thoughts, and vents, but I'm trying to stay positive. May is an ideal month to get PG, so maybe everything will work out.
4. I've never gotten a positive PG test before the day my period is due, so I'm going to spare myself the agony and not test until then. I feel like the only freak who doesn't get a positive at 8 DPO. lol
3- I started Lupron on Monday. I hate it, it gives me the worst headaches and nothing will get rid of them. I am miserable. Also, I am so nervous we will have to cancel again. I am not strong enough for this
4- We can't get pregnant on our own so I never have to test. I did test the night before beta with our IVF so I would be prepared one way or the other.
3) I keep forgetting to temp, oh well that's life with a toddler this time around. DH had a dream last night that I got KU this cycle - here's hopin Once again, I'll be very bummed if this time doesn't work. I should O this weekend, so lots of gettin busy this week. In a way, having quick cycles is blessing an a curse. I don't have nearly the waiting some of you do to O, or for AF. But I also blaze through cycles so quickly - I can't believe I'm already on my fifth time trying.
4) Last time around, I didn't get a + wondfo until 12 DPO (and I mean a squinter). I have really short cycles, 23-25 days, and I O around day 11/12, so you'd think I could wait til I'm late. But NOPE! I start wondfos at like 8 or 9 DPO. I'll use a FRER if I want a few drinks too, just to satisfy DH.

1. CD 5, cycle 2, TTC #2
2. Nope
3. H is traveling this week, so my hopes, once again, are not high for this month
4. I wait for 9DPO, then pee on everything. I even pee after my period starts because I've had implantation bleeding with all three pregnancies that has faked me out. In other words, I'm pretty pathetic, lol.
