sammysam Do you track cervical position? Mine is super high right now. Praying it stays that way. This is my first month tracking it so I don't know how soon it drops before AF. Never tried it. But I feel like it's something I should look into. I honestly wouldn't even know what I was feeling for.

I'm exhausted, even though I'm getting plenty of sleep. I'm going to count that as my "maybe I'm pregnant, even though (based on a slightly darker OPK yesterday followed by lighter one today) I'm probably just ovulating" phantom symptom.

I would totally call that pregnant! What dpo are you? I need someone to test with me tomorrow.

I always tell myself I won't buy any more FRERs, then I always cave at 9 dpo.

I'm excited for all the testing going on tomorrow! Hoping for some positives!
I'm going to just have to live vicariously through y'all for now because I love testing but it's too early for me to even start OPKs.

Or, in the words of sammysam the other day, "pee on money." PS Googling "pee on money" comes up with weird results.

I seriously almost tested yesterday because even though it was CD1 I was really only having spotting mostly. So I almost convinced myself I may still be pregnant and I better make sure before I start Clomid! I'm so embarrassed of myself lol.

sunny75 You aren't alone. I've tried to convince myself that CD1 is really just implantation bleeding and I should just go take another test.

So this is kind of a random question, but do any of y'all skip TTC some months to avoid certain due dates? MH is kind of wanting us to hold off TTC another month to avoid coming close to a December or early January due date. I get where he's coming from because we already do have a December baby and it is kind of a pain, but I think having difficulty getting pregnant we don't really have the luxury of planning for an ideal due date. And also I just really don't want to wait another month 😬

And also I just really don't want to wait another month 😬 When we first started TTC we skipped a couple months so the due date wouldn't be in May or June because we already have so many birthdays those months. I am so mad at myself for doing that. I want another baby so bad that I could not care less what month it is born.

sunny75 Oh Yay! Pee with us tomorrow. Out on context this would look really weird. And I initially thought about doing this when we first started TTC but then decided the chances of getting KU each month are so small I didn't want to skip any just in case. But I do know people who do. Do what you're most comfortable with:) There really isn't a wrong answer.

sunny75 You aren't alone. I've tried to convince myself that CD1 is really just implantation bleeding and I should just go take another test. I even did this on a cycle where we only BD'd on CD 7 and I O'd on CD 20. Just in case the boys managed to live for 13 days😝

We were originially going to hold off last month to avoid a December baby, but I didn't want to miss an opportunity and in the long run I didn't/don't care if my hypothetical child shares a birthday with someone else in the family.
Funny enough my DD shares a birthday with my FIL and I share a birthday with my maternal grandmother.

FF newb question: how do you see your "points" in FF and what do they mean? Right now I've got a yellow light on my fertility analyzer (was red yesterday). It looks like from cursory Googling that this is just for people post-ovulation?
I strongly dislike the FF interface. I am sad I bought the 90 day vip thing :/

I am sad I bought the 90 day vip thing :/ I am also a newb, but I found my "points" by scrolled down past the graph and there is a button that say "pregnancy monitor" and its there.
I haven't paid for the VIP so I just have the free (basic) model.

sharebear, how many times a day do you take an OPK? I missed my true positive because I didn't take one in the evening. So going forward I will be taking one in the late morning and again in the evening. That way I hope I won't miss it. I can't remember, but are you not temping this month?

I've agree, for me testing morning and night has always worked best. My fertility clinic wants me to test once a day from 12-3 so I may try that out this next cycle.

I've had 88 points on a cycle I wasn't pregnant, so I put no stock in that. I'm 11dpo and holding out to test.

I think they recently redid how they give you points. Now I can't break 10. I wonder how many I had on my cp cycle.
