    Thats awesome. I am working at home right now do to the virus. It did allow for me to test more often with opks. I actually got. Positive easy@home at 9am. So that was interesting. I will probably still do my last ICI tonight at 2r hrs past the cb digit positive and it will be 14 hrs past the easy@home. Hopefully those work to get me a bfp. What cd do you usually get a positive opk? Are you r a ady for the tww? I am lol I am tired of opks.

    @perry261 are you using the same donor as your daughter? if you don't mind me asking

  • perry261perry261 Posts: 564 āœ­āœ­āœ­

    @dixie0892 I wanted to use the same donor, but he is no longer donating and they have no vials left of him. So I went with a donor that had similar looks to him. I got a temp drop today and I am worried that I inseminated too early. I did it at 12 hours instead of 24 this time. So I will just have to see what happens. I will start testing on May 26th.

    i thought you were using 3 vials?

  • dixie0892dixie0892 Posts: 59 āœ­

    ive heard that it's better to insem early than when ovulation already happens

  • perry261perry261 Posts: 564 āœ­āœ­āœ­

    I had 3 but I had a false surge and so I used one then and then I had a temp spike and used one to be safe. So I only had 1 when this positive came. I am just hoping this was a true positive opk this time. This was a crazy cycle for me.

    @dixie0892 that is always an exciting moment. I a m sending mine back today. I ended up having to keep it all 7 days this time. I have decided that I will probably stop temping for the rest of this cycle because it is just depressing me. I have tonjust hope that I got the right days to insem. I hope you are having a good cycle so far.

    I meant opk. I'm glad this cycle is going good for you. I was so nervous the first time i did ici at home. It hasnt got any less nerve racking with time though. I am a worrier and I always feel like I did something incorrect. This cycle I am just not thinking about it. That is awesome that you got the blinking smiley. Hopefully it goes solid soon. Then you can join me in the long tww lol. What day past ovulation will you take a pregnancy test? I am trying to hold off until May 26th.

    i have been praying for you, i hope that is okay (if you arent religious lol). i agree with feeling like you are doing something wrong. i am usually like that but i have decided that i am going to stay positive and just let it happen or not happen. i am someone who really believes in signs from the world and i just really feel good about everything right now. i have a BUNCH of cheapie pregnancy tests that have come in my millions of ovulation tests lol. i will probably start testing at 10 dpo since i have so many

  • perry261perry261 Posts: 564 āœ­āœ­āœ­

    That is totally fine and I appreciate it. You are in my thoughts and prayers as well. I have a bunch of tests as well and am hoping to not test until 10 dpo. I am using the Proov tests to check for ovulation. Crazy enough though I got a positive today. I went back later and it had a 2nd line though. So now I am second guessing it lol. I will be 10 dpo on the 26th. I am so excited for you to try for the first time. I cannot wait to see your BFP!

    so last night I had lots of ovulation symptoms. I did insem #1 before bed. today I am having lots of (tmi) egg white cm, high VERY soft cervix and positive opks all day so I'll be doing insem #2 tonight. then on to the dreaded 2 ww!

  • dixie0892dixie0892 Posts: 59 āœ­

    also, my vials said California cryobank so that was weird. my donors originally from ccb but I thought they'd change labels lol. I've heard really good things about ccb so I'm not worried.

    also, that sperm smell hit me like a freight train šŸ˜· I don't know why I was surprised šŸ˜‚ it's been 7 years since I've been with a man. lol.
