http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3ec913. Add me. I'd love to see your cycle.
@Alison206: this is my 5th cycle trying, the 2nd charting, and the 1st with the fertility monitor. I'm doing everything I can for the BFP.

@ambular1025: fertility monitor envy over here!! I added you, your chart looks good! I'm praying I see some sort of dip for implantation between Monday and Wednesday. I had one with our first pregnancy.

@Alison206: in a way it's really nice that you have a previous pregnancy to measure against. My hubby keeps asking me if I think I'm pregnant or if something is a pregnancy sign, and I'm like, IDK I don't have anything to measure it against. I hope you do get your implantation dip!

@ambular1025: it is nice, but at the same time I can see where it forces me to read into things a little too much. Like right now I am SO tired, and I was last time. Well maybe I'm tired just because I'm tired, you know? I'm only 6dpo and I'm already symptom spotting which is silly. I don't think you can even have any at 6dpo.

@grace, @rachel, @spaniellove: I can not wait for you guys to test, those are some pretty charts
pomelo / 5041 posts
@Alison206: I totally agree with you. @Grace, @Rachel, and @Spaniellove all have amazing charts! Mine is practically mirroring last month's negative chart so I'm not so positive.

@ambular1025: Don't give up hope! Remember, it's not over till AF is here!

As I've gotten so close with all of you, I thought I'd share a link to my blog. It's written by me (and 3 of my friends). One has 2 kids, one just had a baby, one is me, and the other hasn't started trying yet. It's a fun read sometimes. http://www.thebabystepsblog.com.

@ambular1025: thanks for sharing! I read a little and it's great, I love adding new blogs to my read list. btw, I will have snugabunny everything. Swing, bouncer, rock n play, and gym mat. I'm obsessed.

@Alison206: Me too! I want something that's in the middle of super girlie or super boyish...and that stuff is WAY too cute.

@alison206: @ambular1025: Well, thanks, ladies. I don't think my chart is doing anything that spectacular though. I've been camping all weekend, so I'm sleep deprived and who knows what that did to the chart. Tommorow's temp should be more interesting.

@ambular1025, @grace, @jojogirl: here comes the crazys!! I am 6dpo and BLOATED. Like I look pregnant, and very crampy. Oh and gassy. Give me logical reasons cause all I'm thinking is "hmm, is 6dpo too early for implantation?"
cantaloupe / 6206 posts
@alison206: Have you eaten a lot of bread/pasta/refined carbs this weekend?
grapefruit / 4079 posts
@jojogirl: sadly, no. my diet has pretty much stayed the same. I know sometimes bloating just happens because it happens.
grapefruit / 4079 posts
@jojogirl: I know, I know. But it's sooo hard not get evaluate every single thing my body is doing. Ok, I'm bloated, and crampy because I'm gassy probably because of something I ate.
grapefruit / 4079 posts
@grace: I'm not sure. I was so convinced we wouldn't get pregnant our first try I wasn't really paying attention. I do remember that we were sitting at lunch and my mouth was covered with canker sores and I was beyond tired. I think that was about 9-10dpo. Hot tea has seemed to help the bloatedness.
pomelo / 5041 posts
@Alison206...I'm exactly the same way...my understanding is that ovulation is about 7dpo so 6 wouldn't be so hard to believe. I'm right with you in that thinking of everything is a pregnancy symptom, but the BFN this morning has put me in a much more realistic mood. I know it's probably too early to get a BFP anyway, but it still mad me a bit sad and has me presuming it's a no go.
grapefruit / 4079 posts
@grace, @ambular1025: it really is, this whole process makes me very emotional. I have a good feeling about this month but I don't want to dare say that to anyone besides you guys because if I get my period or a BFN I don't want people to pity me or think I'm crazy. It was so easy last time, is it too much to ask that this time will be easy too? I know 6dpo isn't a far stretch and it could be implantation but the better part of me knows I probably ate something that didn't agree with me. Which makes me feel ridiculous.
grapefruit / 4079 posts
@grace: thanks. I don't know how people made it through TTC without HB. I greatly appreciate the support I get here
pomelo / 5041 posts
@Alison206: you are not ridiculous or we all are. This community is where we can all be honest and no one will laugh when cramping is just constipation. But we all pray you are right!
grapefruit / 4703 posts
@alison206: I feel the same way! I seriously think I'd be depressed by now without HB as an outlet and support system! So thanks to you all for that
cantaloupe / 6206 posts
@alison206: I am the biggest symptom spotter of them all, I hear you!!! Hang in there!
cantaloupe / 6730 posts
@ambular1025: Haha. Cramping is constapation. Wonder if that's what's going on with me right now?
pomelo / 5041 posts
@Grace: I seriously think half of the cramping feelings I get are that at least. LOL.

Ok ladies I am going back to work today. I know it's hard to feel bad for me when I've had 3 months off but try a little please. And if you can't feel bad for me then feel bad for this face. He sits and my feet and cries as I brush my teeth and put in my contacts. Have a great day ladies, I'll still be able to check in by phone but if anyone tests, tag me so I know to check ASAP!
Sidenote: FF is killing me. Don't tell me what % of pregnant people had the same symptom (that I am currently taking from nothing to OMG I'm pregnant) I have at XXdpo. Ugh!
pomelo / 5041 posts
@Alison206: good luck back at work! I have work today too but will definitely be checking HB while I'm there. On a sidenote: hubby and I discussed the need to get a higher temp today if there was hope for a pregnancy and we did! Now just crossing my fingers for another high temp tomorrow.

@alison206: Hope you had a great day back at work today! You have such a cutie!
I'm starting to feel jaded about this charting thing. This is like the third or fourth time I've had a triphasic chart so I'm thinking this is just what my chart normally looks like.
cantaloupe / 6206 posts
@spaniellove: I just threadjacked about that over on the OPK thread. I didn't realize yours always look like this - it looks SO promising!!!
Edit - just saw you have all your charts posted. I dunno, other than April's chart when you were climbing til 14dpo, this is the first time in a while you've climbed so consistently. But I see what you mean about that being a typical pattern. When are you testing?
honeydew / 7916 posts
@JoJoGirl: It looks more promising this cycle than usual! I think the progesterone cream kept me from having any weird dips. But minus the dips, I think it goes triphasic more often than not.
pomelo / 5041 posts
@Spaniellove..I totally think you may be pregnant. I mean not to jinx you or anything, but your chart looks oh so good! I wish mine climbed like yours!

People have disappeared off my friend's list, making chart stalking so much more difficult!!!
I hope everyone is doing well. We had our u/s today and everything is looking great, I just wanted to let you guys know
I'm thinking about you all every day and chart stalking when I can!!! Fingers crossed for some more BFPs on this thread, especially in the next few days!!!!!!
honeydew / 7916 posts
Okay well I'll stop putting it off; I guess I'll POAS tomorrow. (kind of dreading this)
pomelo / 5041 posts
@Spaniellove, I'll cross my fingers for you! If you get a BFN don't worry until you get AF.
