I NEED HELP ASAP... AM I TOO LATE???

Don't give up on diet and exercise. We have seen clearly that 12 weeks + on diet are most effective, and if you stop dieting for half the month, it undoes a lot of the good you do the rest of the time.

Atomic I feel like I'm losing my mind :'( I took an early pregnancy test this morning because I will be camping for the next couple of days and I just wanted to know! Well I got ANOTHER BFN! I'm supposed to start my period in 4 days. What am I doing wrong? Why can't I get pregnant? I'm going to test again when we get home but I just have a feeling I'm not pregnant. This is month 4 ttc. I think I want a custom plan. I feel so sad! I eat, sleep, and live trying to get pregnant with a baby girl its all I think about. I'm starting to lose faith idk how much longer I can take the stress. I kniw ib the grand scheme of things 4 mibths is nothing and there are women who have bigger struggles but I have never had a problem so this is new to me and horrible. Any thoughts or advice wiuld be greatly appreciated right now :'(

I feel like my opk didn't even get very dark but the 18th was the darkest day for my opk. Am I not ovulating??

Well, the thing is, it takes fully fertile people doing nothing to sway, an average of 3-6 months to conceive. If you've gotten pregnant sooner previously it was good fortune and not a guarantee that it would always be that way. Some months just aren't THE month. And that's a pretty early test anyway, so you never know, you may not be out.

if you're getting AF, you're ovulating. Everyone jumps to the conclusion that somehow not conceiving means they aren't even ovulating but virtually always, AF = ovulation occured.

Tell me everything you did this month and I'll tell you what to tweak!

When did you start testing with OPK???

It's totally possible to get false negatives on OPK - you don't get a positive, but you still surge and release an egg. Sometime switching brands can help.

Really?? Wow I didnt know that. I feel a little better now about our time frame. I convinced my hubby over the weekend that as long as we can conceive in the next 7 months we'll be on track with our family plan. That has taken some of the stress off! So I wake up and usually around 9 or 10 I havr a soda or some crystal light but I don't eat until about 12. My lunch is usually some pasta with veggies and sauce then I dont eat again until about 6 then I have some rice with sauteed spinach some bread and some other veggie usually broccoli then aroynd 8 or 9 I have an apple with peanut butter. I am going to start adding an hour of cardio either jogging or walking 4 times a week. I have cut out milk and pretty much all meat since those are both things I love and use to eat a lot of. The weekends are SO hard for me but if I'm going to cheat I usually have sushi.. can I eat potatoes? what are some really good foods to have on this diet I'm starting to get tired of what I've been eating.

I started my OPK'S at the begging of my fertile window so I do them for about a week and I do them first thing in the morning. If I do a custom plan do you tell me what to eat and when? What all comes with that? I'm a little worried about my sodium intake as well... is top ramen ok to eat? I need to find better meals to make it's just hard I make 3 different dinners almost every night. One for the hubby, one for the kids, then whatever I an eating.

No, I mean things like timing, douche, etc.

We ended up dtd 2 day before ovulation which was the 17th and again on the 20th. I waited 10 mins both times then used the bathroom. We also used the tiniest but of SYLK on the 17th but no douche.

Also I bought the $20 membership but I still cant access the private forums? It also says that it comes with 5-days of Meals for TTC PINK as well as Foods to consume and avoid for TTC a Girl. Where can I find this? Thanks!
