Trying for a 2016 baby

@ Inca, I also used to use the Clicks brand. Have you gotten your positive OPK yet?

@ Liza, how was your weekend away?

@ Ninies, did you get implantation bleeding/spotting? On what DPO did you test? lol, getting ichy to test

@ Anzel, how was your braai, hmm I bet all the food was delicious. We also braai often and I also like catering for friends. I am +- a week ahead of you on CD26, I ovulated very late according to FF and also got some EWCM a few days after that.

AFM, on my 5 rounds of Fertomid I had 25/26 day cycles so not sure when AF is due now. Prior to Fertomid my cycles were 29-33 days, I am on CD26 today and my temp is at 36.7. Only symptoms is sore nips.
If my temp doesn't dip and AF has not arrived by Wed/Thurs then I am going to test at 10/11DPO. We are going for all our tests on Friday and don't want to do all the tests and pay all that money if we don't need too

Morning, girls

How is your Saturday so far? We have a huge braai tonight, where we are catering for our friends. Wow! Lots of work to do! So this morning, after sleeping in and having a warm breakfast, I got to work to make the honey mustard chicken sosaties, to put the steaks in my home made tenderizing sauce, to take the wors out of the freezer. I also quickly made the fresh fruit salad for tonight and stuffed the garlic loaf full of cheese. More than this I can't do now. Ill have to wait till round about 18:00 to start making the fresh salads. Lots of work!!

The funny thing is, all our friends have kids. And these kids are coming along. And we don't have the facilities to entertain or cater for kids! We had to ask one of our friends to bring along his kids plastic table and chairs! Heheheh! Our turn will come, I'm sure. Till then, they have to bear with us!

How are all of you doing?

I am on CD 18. Nausea a bit better today. Think I had a tummy bug, which now subsided a bit. My boobs are a bit sensitive/sore today, but it's quite common in my TWW. Something strange, though, is the amount of EWCM I still get. Apparently it is as a result of a secondary Estrogen surge?? WTF? My ovulation date was on Tuesday, and I still had loads of EWCM yesterday morning. It actually dripped!! So I dunno.

Apart from that I'm feeling much better. Weight dropped again - saw it this morning on the scale, so that is encouraging. I also started with inofolic yesterday, so holding thumbs for a positive outcome.

Hope you have a wonderful Saturday and that you rest well. If you are in BD stage, go at it with all your heart. Hubby will love it! Take care!

@JB: Oh wow! Congrats hun, that's such awesome news. Lets hope that you get your BFP this month I bought my opk's from Clicks (it's the Clicks brand) - I find they work the best. I started yesterday testing and got a very obvious negative so will keep testing. We'll probably start BD'ing from CD13 (Monday). Bought my conceive plus yesterday from Dischem. So excited to start using it

@ Anzel, are you feeling better today? I am hoping that been nauseous is a good sign!

@ Inca, I would start testing at CD10 just so that you don't miss your surge. Where do you buy your OPK's?

@ Chanti, are you also gearing up to O?

AFM, I had my Progesterone test done yesterday and was so shocked as I had a excellent ovulation on my first un medicated cycle. Very strange as this cycle I had no ovulation symptoms at all. FF set my ovulation at CD18 which makes me 6DPO today. This morning I got a small twinge on my left side but now nothing.

Hope you ladies have a wonderful week-end

@Chanti: Oh cool! So would 1 day before ovulation be best to go?

@Inca - Its done just before ovulation to check the size of ur eggs and if there are any eggs lined up. A good plump egg is usually desired

@Anzel: Gosh the 10 day wait! Really hope this will be your cycle Anzel. That would be so amazing!!!

@Chanti: What is the follicle scan? Does it give you any useful information and when should you go for that?
