I'm currently 4dpo and got the cold that I've been trying to avoid for the past three days. If I don't get a BFP, I'll be using Clomid for the next 3 cycles before calling it quits! I know I said I was going to be done, but that was before I ran into my RE at the grocery store. He tested my prolactin and it is 3 times higher than it should be for still breastfeeding a 9mo old! He said my supply would be fine and it should do the trick! I need all the help I can get to insure I can give my DH a DD! I think that is the only way he might actually end up excited to have a 4th child! He said I could either take it on days 2-6 or 3-7.
Eek!!

I know what you mean, xxforhubby. I have the same thing going on around me now. It doesn't help that 2 of my sisters are also ttc right now. It really makes it way more stressful for me.

I feel weird knowing that people I know IRL are TTC at the same time as me. It feels almost competitive. I can only imagine how I would feel if it was a sister (I don't have any).

Exactly, foxtrotmama! The worst part is that it's been a long journey for all of us so I know it's going to be really difficult to tell them if/when I finally do get pregnant. They're going to be jealous. Not that I can blame them. I know if they get pregnant before me, I'll be jealous too. I really wish I didn't know they were ttc. It would be way easier for me.

Spectacular September 2WW Thread
I need help. I am so confused. I posted the picture of my OPK yesterday (Saturday) and everyone agreed it wasn't positive yet, but I tested twice today (Sunday) and they are even lighter than yesterday. I always get mid cycle cramps the day I get a +OPK and then a day or two after(days I most likely O). I have had those cramps mild yesterday and intense today but still no +OPK.
I think I might have missed my serge which is very frustrating because I have been testing daily since Cd9. Today is cd18. If tests are getting lighter I would say my serge might have been earlier yesterday (Saturday) or even Friday. Which means cramps today Sunday could be actual O.
We DTD Thursday night cd15. We were doing e4d so I am due to DTD tomorrow Monday night but I think that might be too late. I feel like the Thursday BD would have been too early but not sure. Should we BD tonight instead of tomorrow? I am so confused at what my body is doing. This is my first cycle on clomid so that might be messing things up. Thanks for listening.

I don't know what's worse, being left behind while other people you were TTC with you know in real life have babies, or getting pregnant first and knowing someone who still isn't.
GirlieCat, when I was TTC my first my surge was super short. I tested at least twice a day to manage to catch it. O day the cycle I conceived 2 PM was positive but by 6 or so it was lighter again. Of course, that level of obsessiveness (taking OPKs three times a day, including at work) is pretty typically boy-mom territory.
If it was yesterday, you're probably looking at ovulating today. I wouldn't totally discount your thursday BD, but chances of conception from it are pretty low.

GirlieCat, if this is your first cycle ttc, I'd stick with the e4d. If you want to, you could switch to e3d next cycle. I'd say your attempt is pretty good. I have short surges too. I typically assume my own opks are positive when they are the same as you posted yesterday. I switched to using the Clearblue Advanced opks because they are better at catching my surge. I do have to test twice a day with it though. The clomid could definitely be effecting your ovulation. I had a false positive on my opks the second month I took clomid. So, just be aware that is a possibility. I'd keep up the e4d for the rest of your cycle, just in case. FX for you!!
Foxtrotmama, I'm not sure which is worse either. I'm not looking forward to it. :/
