 Hi everyone. 
I am on CD13. I got a blaring positive OPK today. I have been taking Musinex again this cycle, and I have a ton of EWCM..... So we are gonna BD for the next 3 days. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
Baby dust to you all.
Amy

Hey there,

Doing okay, I took the POAS and it was a BFN!!!  That was yesterday so I did my usual, took the day off to sulk and all that loveliness.  Today was my CD of course so when the nurse called to ask if I needed my Chlomid called in, I said no.  I think I'm taking this cycle off.  I can't stand this up and down roller coaster.  I need a break.  Aside from that, I have to meet with my Dr. about our switch to IVF which won't happen till the end of the month.  I will start with that process next month, if he recommends.  I hope everyone else had a better week than I did.  I'll be thinking happy baby thoughts in no time, just not today.

Chavon

I'm 7 DPO....have had sore breasts, cramping, nausea, and dizziness for the past couple of days...with the exception of today. Today I feel fine. Now getting a little down and am driving myself insane waiting to test.

Baby dust to everyone!

I'm 7 DPO also!  I've been nauseas in the morning for the last couple days, just can't seem to eat breakfast.  Had a little cramping yesterday and today.  My breast started aching today!  I'm going a little insane right along with you!  When are you going to test?  GL!

Well, I'm now 9 DPO...we decided to test in the morning (10 DPO). I'm not very confident. Hubby picked up an Equate test and I think that it might still be too early for this particular test. However, the symptoms came back with a vengence. I'm cautiously optimistic

Good luck to you too! When are you going to test?

I'll probably pick up some $ tree tests tomorrow.  I have an appointment on Monday with my dr for some blood tests.  She wants to see what my progesterone is midway through my LP.

Boohoo, it wasn't my month   i'm on CD3,,, Thought we timed everything out right, but

But I got the results of my 7dpo progesterone test. It was 16.1  The dr hasnt called me or mailed me anything (I called them for results) but from what I could find out online, that should be good.

So back to ebay i go, to get some more OPK strips

Good luck everyone!

Shari - I get to join back on the list for August! I am expecting AF around the first of August.
