Miranda, I will say lots of prayers for you this weekend. My O day for this cycle was on a Sunday also, this is TMI but I'll tell you anyways. We bd before going to church (should I feel guilty LOL) and at church I remember I cried and cried during the sermon. I just kept thinking, I just know I am pregnant. I was praying and thinking I just know you have given me this gift Lord. Now look at me I am pregnant. It is so spiritually uplifting to be going through this. I am so thankful. I am going to continue praying for everyone in the group to have BFP very soon. I lift your names in prayer everyday.

Hi ladies I have been so busy at home and work and just have had no time to get on the computer to follow what is going on since yesterday! I am having a light AF day so it should be done by tomorrow. I am also going to join a gym Sat to get myself in shape for whenever I do get a BFP. I have gained about 20 lbs and it is starting to bother me! I hope you all have a good weekend!

Good morning ladies. I hope everyone has a good Friday. My day will be busy. I have to do an observation for school today and them set up at church for a children pizza night. Just to let those who are talking about it know. I have from 30-32 day cycles and I O right at the 18 day of cycle each time. Which will be this weekend. I am praying for you all as you start TTC.
Lisa if you see this thank you for coming in. I will keep your family in my prayers. Miranda
Thank you so very much for stopping by the Oct.'07 thread and for the prayers for my Mother. This was so very kind and thoughtful of you! They are so very much appreciated!

If you BD when you get a med/dark line on the OPK, you will be just before O, and then can a day and two later to right at or after O. That should cover you without depleting sperm. If you are doing BBT, you may not know until after O, unless you know about what day your O comes. Thats why I would use the OPK and BBT for a month or two to get a good idea when your O comes.

Hello. I was wondering if i should bd before or after o. What is the best time. I hope we did not miss this. Right we have alot on us with work, trying to get someone to cut trees for us before 6/11, and trying to get things ready from the company come out and install swimming pool. I'm a little stress with work, found out company sold us out to another company, having to change alot of thins. I hope this stress is not going to interfere with ttc. I need a vac. Hope you ladies have a good night. Leann sc

Based on a 30 day cycle you should probably start OPK around day 10 or 12 - it will say in the packet. You only need to test once a day, not with FMU, usually late morn or early afternoon - whenever is convenient - but same time everyday. You may get a few days of a light line before it gets dark. Some women will test a second time later in the day if they get a med line in the morning. Once you get a dark line, your O is imminent - you don't need to test anymore. Typical rule is to BD every other day from day 10-20 - makes hubby happy! But that way you shouldn't miss it. O is usually good for about 24 hours before and after. I have heard that it is not good to BD more than every other day because it could reduce his sperm count. Have fun and take care!!! Carol

Amanda - get started as soon as AF arrives. Go to www.fertilityfriend.com and set up an account (free) with chart. They have alot of info on there on how and when to do it. But like Trisha said, you need to do it same time every morning before getting out of bed or drinking anything. Keep thermometer on bedside table. But a specific "basal" thermometer though. And, important, take temp in exactly same spot in mouth every time - the basal thermometer should show you a diagram of the "hot spots". Have fun!!! Take care. Carol

I am feeling very emotional today & yesterday. Everything makes me teary-eyed. My AF should start Sun. or Mon. too! I remember one of the girls saying she felt very emotional after TR too. I bet it's the surgery and AF is just intensifying it!! Anyone else feel like this? Amanda, thanks for thinking of me on my b-day! I'll look forward to it!! We have to get a calling card so we can talk on the phone! You need a basal thermometer, not a regular one. You need to take your temperature every morning before you get out of bed, drink, talk, anything. Just roll over, grab it while you're half asleep. Chart the temp. each day on Fertility Friend. Gotta run, let me know if that makes sense. Trisha
