Miswe, I know I should be happy temp is still low but I get suspicious as to why after 5days of ewcm I havent O'd yet! And why I am getting these symptoms earlier than the last few months! I guess that's the pessimist in me.
I also took my temp after my morning shower to see if it had changed or if my thermometer was broken! Haha!

It's definitely hard to wonder what the heck is going on! Hopefully for you your cycle is just re-regulating! I'd say if you don't O in the next day or two it'll be weird. But I reckon 5 days of EWCM isn't that weird. If you think about it - they say sperm can live for 5 days right? Except that you need fertile CM for them to survive. So you're maybe just one of those people that could actually keep them alive for 5 days this month?

I don't know - here I am spinning a story to try make it sound like it makes sense

After all the ups and downs though I don't blame you! I'm pretty well finding every reason under the sun as to why I'm not be pregnant yet!

Hubby's second sperm test confirmed the findings that he has low motility (less than 20%) so I guess we now have a reason why we have been struggling to conceive.

It's not an easy one to fix unfortunately and there is nothing he can take to make them swim. Because we are moving cities I don't think we are going to see a fertility specialist until we are settled in Wellington, so until then we just keep trying and hope we get lucky.

MrsMcK my partner has low motility as well, but we can still get pregnant naturally. So don't be too hard on yourselves menevit can help.
Red capsicum, drinking coffee before you dtd can boost sperm count. onion, garlic, pumpkin seeds, brazil nuts, almonds.

I'm sorry MrsM, that's not the news you want to hear! Though I suppose at least you have some answers and can move on to the next step. I don't know a thing about sperm motility or anything, but I'm sure there's a way!

I'm 12dpo today so tested this morning and big surprise.... another BFN. 😔

I knew it was coming this time so guess I'll just keep moving along until we can see the specialist and see what our options are.

Fingers crossed for everyone else in the TWW!

Sorry to hear MrsMck. was just coming on here to see if you'd tested. Hopefully you get a next step soon so you can get a BFP!

Tested this morning as well at 11dpo and BFN. Which is sort of sad as I was feeling good about this month. But not to be. Running tests end of this week. AF due on weds and I'm having bad AF symptoms so definitely don't think it's just a late BFP!

Sandme I was having cycles ranging from 27-35 days, then had a 45 day cycle so went to the dr. After some tests it turned out I had PCOS and hadn't even been ovulating the whole time. I know it sounds grim but its always good to go get these things checked out just in case! Absolute fingers crossed for you that it ends up being a BFP though!
I just had to have a blood test which of course came back BFN since my last blood test showed I hadn't ovulated, but I had to get it anyway. Nurse told me it might be a couple of weeks before AF arrives so I just get to patiently wait until I can start over again.

Me too MrsMck. I thought surely it's time for one of us to have one! Onto the next cycle once AF shows. Not sure what else to try next month... AF due on weds and will go for bloods on Friday probably, also booked for an ultrasound for possible endo. So we'll see what that all comes back with.

Sandme that sounds really frustrating. Hope she shows soon so you can move on!

Oxy - not very hopeful as I'm still in BFN land but I often swing between having cm after O and not. Last month had that sort of CM the whole TWW. This month none!

Hi all, been a bit quiet lately. From my chart and previous cycles I think I o'd Mon or Tues as my temps rise slowly after O. So 6 or 7 dpo. Boobs quite sore, but I have realised this is normal for me in the tww. A little sooner than expected so that's why I'm putting O Mon or Tues.
Sorry to hear of all our bfns :( Doesnt give me much hope (not that there is much hope at the moment...outside chance for me since DH was away for pretty much my entire fertile window).
Had a weekend away for a family wedding on the in laws side. CONSTANT hounding about when are we having babies, did we try conceive a baby the night of the wedding, MIL demanding she wants abother grandchild this year. DH very nearly lost it. He was one more question away from retorting with "you are all assuming we can have kids...what if we cant" but he held his tongue. Very much over it.
Other than my normal sore boobs, no symptoms to speak of. Just waiting for AF to arrive so we can try again.

I hope all the tests go smoothly Miswe! Or they can at least find an easy fix.

I'm so sorry about alll the questions AJB! Family can be so nosey can't they? I know they mean well but it's hard to handle when you are TTC. Fingers crossed for you this month though!

AF is due tomorrow for me. I can definitely feel it coming on.

I came home from work today and literally broke down sobbing. Some days I feel like I'm coping really well and then I have a day like today where it feels like everything is falling apart.... One day at a time. Just need to tell myself that we will get there eventually.
