You're pregnant but your AF comes around the time it's due (sometimes a day or two late or early).

Quoting ~Manda Panda +3 ~:" My last 2 pregnancies we conceived from BD 3 days before O"

oh really hrmm hearing that is giving me hope...I just donw want to get my hopes up lol

No I understand that. I just wanted to let you know it's possible. In PRIME conditions sperm live up to 5 days. That's rare but possible but 3 days is very possible.

Today is supposed to be O day, but I have no cm? And I won't get a chance to BD today. I think I'm O'ing a few days before my app is saying I do. Because I had a lot of cm like 2 days ago, and we BD'd. Oh well! If we don't catch it this cycle, I have OPK's on the way

I has a LOAD of CM a day or 2 ago but that is when my surge was and now I have just a little CM and I should be O now... I'm confused by my body lol

This is prob a really stupid question but I'm not good at this ovulation stuff

Do you ovulate the same time every month? Or does it change every month?

How many BFP's have you gotten? Did u test again?

<blockquote><b>Quoting MonkCakes:</b>" This is prob a really stupid question but I'm not good at this ovulation stuff Do you ovulate the same time every month? Or does it change every month?"</blockquote>




Typically around CD14. But no it can be different every month. I O late like CD 19.

The egg gets fertilized but doesn't implant. So you have a small amount of HCG in you enough to get you am early BFP but not enough to miss AF.

I had a chemical in february. I hate calling it that though. It makes it sound like its not a miscarriage. The definition of it IS early miscarriage. Its when the blastocyst is unable to implant correctly into the uterine wall OR implanted correctly but the baby is so unhealthy that it just can't grow. I had positives that turned to negatives before I started bleeding. I refuse to call it a period. I feel like it undermines what it actually is. You don't have to believe its a miscarriage... that's your choice... but I do. My friend had a chemical as well. She got a VERY faint questionable positive... was late for her period and then she started spotting... Got another very faint positive and had period-like bleeding.
So its very possible to not get a positive before you bleed from a chemical. It just depnds on if you were testing early enough. My guess is my friends levels already dropped before she could get a real positive. My chemical positive is on my profile. It was faint but obvious and I got it on 10 FRER and a few dollar store tests.

not a stupid question. Changes every month... not necessarily for everybody... but for me I ovulated later than cd14 and its never the same cd every month. USE OPKS!!!!

ok good to know I used them this month so we will see lol

Mine has been different.
I haven't been using OPK's.
But my first cycle I had signs on CD 10 and 11.
Then the cycle after that I had no signs at all (pretty sure my body just skipped it that month because AF was 18 days late).
The cycle after that I was at like CD 16.
And then this cycle I O'd on CD 14.

My cycle length varies between 25 and 28 days too.

8 DPO tomorrow and I think I am going to test, and if it is negative I won't test until again until Wednesday.

The smell of SO today (he is a smoker) just made me want to gag. Then DD got into SO's cologne and my stomach is queasy from the smell. Boobs are getting sorer by the day but that could just be because of AF.

ugh I really really suck at all this ovulation stuff im like stupid when it comes to it lol
but I know you get a lot of CM when you ovulate right?

well if that's the case I had LOTSSSSS like a day or 2 ago I mean so much I had to put a panty liner on and change it threw out the day but today (when I should be ovulating ) I have NONE at all...does that mean anything?
