I'm sure it's just a BC issue, having been on it for so long. Still annoying though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-617715 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:38:59 +0000 SweetMamaM 617715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNYC: I'd give it until you've missed another period (so CD 56 or so) and then go. The worst they can do is just make a note of it and send you on your way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-617396 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 12:12:34 +0000 FarmWifeGina 617396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNYC: Yeah, I'm too cheap to buy another copy right now too. :/ It's such a great resource though, I'd love to have it on hand for reference and I might just make my kids read it as a supplement to their sex ed, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-617322 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 11:48:27 +0000 LindsayInNY 617322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: I'm too cheap to buy TCOYF and my library doesn't have the eBook version (just physical copies). So I figured I'd try FF's one! They have 80ish example charts too for all sorts of scenarios! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-617157 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 11:14:02 +0000 FarmWifeGina 617157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNYC: Free e-book? I'll have to check that out! I used to have a copy of Taking Charge Of Your Fertility, which is da BOMB when it comes to this kind of stuff, but I let my sister "borrow" it 3 or so years ago and haven't seen it since. Guess I need to get another copy. :/ And I think my chart is pretty straightforward. Only one spike and not too much variation the rest of the month, but maybe I'll share over there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-617106 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 11:00:30 +0000 LindsayInNY 617106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: I'm no expert by any means, I've been reading the free ebook from Fertility Friend which is why I asked :) Maybe post your chart in the Charting thread? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-617057 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 10:47:54 +0000 FarmWifeGina 617057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNYC: I haven't be checking for cervix position or cervical fluid yet, just temping (was gonna add those in one at a time, once I got in the habit of temping) and have never in my life actually felt myself O, so I assume the spike means I O'd, especially since it was at the right time of the month for me, but I guess I don't know for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-617053 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 10:45:19 +0000 LindsayInNY 617053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: Were there any other signs aside from the temperature spike? Is it possible you didn't actually O then even though it looks like it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-616973 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 10:26:56 +0000 FarmWifeGina 616973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started temping a couple of months ago again, just to get a feel for what my body is doing, and my temperature spike was on CD11, so I'm pretty sure I O'd on CD10. Which means, if I'm not pregnant, I'm having one HECK of a long luteal phase. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-616937 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 10:18:46 +0000 LindsayInNY 616937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetMamaM: I don't know if I've Oed or not. I started temping last week but I don't know if it'll show anything. I think BC screwed my cycle up. I just wonder how long to give it before calling my doctor? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-616855 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 09:55:21 +0000 creativemomma15 616855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: I have the cheap amazon ones at home. I think we got 50 for like $8- $10. It's nice to not feel like I am wasting tons of money on one test! They are so pricey in stores! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-616830 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 09:51:38 +0000 FarmWifeGina 616830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: I know, I need to have some of those Amazon ones on hand or something. Closest Dollar Tree is 100 miles away. Any dollar store, for that matter. But I'm never expecting to get pregnant when we're not TTC, so have no reason to buy a bunch when I'm in the big city, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-616819 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 09:48:33 +0000 Alivoo01 616819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: I hate that pregnancy tests are so expensive!! Do you have a Dollar Tree nearby? If not, I would order those bulk packs from Amazon for like $20. I cringed at the cost of pregnancy tests at drugstores... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-616744 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 09:24:03 +0000 FarmWifeGina 616744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so, @Mrs. Blue. At the moment I'm fine with not knowing, so I'll probably wait until at least tomorrow morning. I've probably spent close to $50 on pregnancy tests and I don't want to waste the last 3 I have on negative results and no answers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-616641 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 08:47:20 +0000 Mrs. Blue 616641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's so frustrating to just have to wait! Are you going to try testing today? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-616393 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 01:50:31 +0000 SweetMamaM 616393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNYC: @FarmWifeGina: with you too ladies, certain I o'd on CD15 but am now CD53... Just waiting to hit CD56 to book Drs appointment - he won't blood test til I miss a second period :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-615973 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 21:06:31 +0000 LindsayInNY 615973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: I'm with ya - I'm on CD47, no AF or BFP in sight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-615877 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 20:40:49 +0000 FarmWifeGina 615877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Peed on 2 sticks today and they're both completely negative, not even the shadow of a second line. Soooooooo... I'll probably wait another day or two and use FMU (didn't today). :/ Wish ol' AF would just show up already. Or whatever she's gonna do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-612496 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 18:09:32 +0000 FarmWifeGina 612496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going into town for ladies' Bible Study tomorrow morning, so will be picking up some more {freaking expensive} pregnancy tests, as well as seeing a good friend of mine who makes a hobby of reading auras and has picked up on the pregnancies of all my friends, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-612392 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 17:31:15 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 612392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my gosh that is so frustrating! I hope you get an answer soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-612340 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 17:17:00 +0000 FarmWifeGina 612340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, you and me both, @Alivoo01! Especially since I was planning on starting a bunch of supplements before we TTC in an effort to develop more mammary tissue (I have IGT- insufficient glandular tissue) and some of those supplements, if not started before pregnancy, are most effective when started as early in the pregnancy as possible. ARGH! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-611841 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 15:25:20 +0000 Alivoo01 611841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh the unknown!! I hate that! I would re-test in a couple days and see what the results are then. In the past, I could be up to 1 week late so hang in there! Keep us posted though. I'm curious to find out the end result! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/late-cycle-weirdness#post-611638 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 14:24:30 +0000 FarmWifeGina 611638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, so I'm 4 or 5 days late. Once in awhile I'll go as late as 2 days, but never this late. We're not TTC, but we may have had a condom accident, can't quite remember. I tested with a Clear Blue at 2 days late and not even a hint of a line. I don't really feel pregnant, but that's not unusual because I've never had symptoms, other than a missed period, with my first two pregnancies. At several days late with those pregnancies I got pretty faint lines, so maybe I just need to wait longer? I dunno. I don't feel like I'm gearing up for AF, so I have no idea WHAT is going on. I haven't been unduly stressed out or anything like that. But it's kind of a mindf**k not knowing. We weren't planning to TTC for another 6 months, so, while I would be completely excited to be pregnant right now, there's a lot of plans that will need reevaluating. On the other hand, I wanna be pregnant right. this. minute. I wanna call the midwife and set up an appointment. I wanna have the excitement of planning and thinking about baby. But... oh, well. What will be will be and there's no use getting my panties in a wad about it now, I guess. </p>
