    Hmm... last three temps have all been up, but no crosshairs on FF. I didn't start temping till mid-cycle though... maybe that's why? Hope to not have to track the next cycle but if I have to, then maybe I'll figure it out then.

    @ms.janedoe: Ugh, I feel your pain of the late O post BCP. It's my 2nd cycle off the pill, too, and it's CD25 and I'm waiting to O...so annoying!!

    @evansjamie: Congrats!!!

    @KjfromNJ: I know, looking at charts on FF is strangely addicting. I'll find out different things I want to search for, look for charts like mine....reading the symptoms people enter is funny sometimes, too. One woman wrote "affectionate cat." What does that mean?

    Can you link your FF chart here? There might be other info that is confusing FF and that's why they haven't given you an O date yet.

    @Happygal: trying hard to figure out how to link it and I can't! eek!

    @KjfromNJ: If you're on your charts page, there should be a "Sharing" tab on the top. If you see the drop down menu from there, you go to "Get Code." That will provide you with a URL for your chart.

    @Happygal: Got it! http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/403457
    And please don't judget my lack of BD... I was away mid cycle, unfortunately. Not that anyone would judge haha just I look at it and get so mad at my trip-planning skills!

    @evansjamie: Congrats!!!

    I still haven't ovulated and I'm now on day 17. Weird.... My clear blue monitor is still saying High Fertility.. my guess is that maybe I'm having a 40 day cycle and I will O around day 20..

    @KjfromNJ: No judgement here! But if you want, you can change your setting so that data doesn't show.

    I'm not sure, but here are some guesses: they're open dots, so something is off (varying waking times could be one). FF might be waiting for more data b/c of that. If you had recorded CM, that helps with picking out the O date. Also, maybe the first rise wasn't counted yet b/c it was so slight. I have a slow rise, and I think last time it took 4 temps before they gave me crosshairs. If you're antsy to see them, you could change the detection method to OPK, although I think you'll get those crosshairs soon.

    You may want to post this question to Charters of the Hive. It's been quiet over there, but those women know a lot more than I do!

    @Happygal: thanks! I'm not sure how accurate it all has been, I guess if this cycle doesn't work I'll try charting temps, CM, and OPK's all at once. I chart CM when I really notice it but never really check for it, so that makes sense. And I left the BD's in there since I think it's important! This just wasn't a very together-y cycle for us with our schedules, unfortunately. I'm sure FF isn't pleased with my lack of data as a whole, but we'll see where the week takes me!

    @LindsayInNYC: I know, I'm in shock!

    Thank you everyone! It's so surreal, and I am just absolutely useless today at work. USELESS. Especially because I got up at 4:30 this morning to test.

    I.can't.stay.away.from.the.boards. So I'm joining! :))

    Current Cycle Day: CD19

    Ovulation Date: Hopefully within the next couple of days.

    POAS date/Usual Cycle Length: February 9th. I'm not gonna test early. Usual cycle length is 29 days but lately around 32.

    Cycles trying: This will be #4 since our m/c.

    BD timing: It all depends on when I O. We'll try for a day or two before, O day and a day or two after.

    Plans for Valentine's Day this year: I work 3am until 3pm that day sooooooo probably won't be doing anything unless DH wants to be in charge of dinner. We normally don't celebrate.

    @SweetMamaM: I totally read up on Maca and I am so interested in trying it! I started taking b-complex per my chiropractor and all I think it's going to do is lengthen my time before O... which I'd like to be shortened. Fingers crossed it gets you your BFP!

    So, we are 4DPO, and I have been having weird pokey abdominal pains all day.

    @LindsayInNYC & @Mrs. J: thank you! I figure there's no reason to stay away from the people I talk to when I need advice and support. :))
    @Mrs. J: Oooooooooo! Twinges are good! Good luck!! Stick baby stick!

    @Ash: that's awesome, I think it's definitely given me a stronger surge this time - i would usually get two positive OPK and this month only had one positive, followed by a definite ping in my ovaries... Almost certain that I o'd this month, two days before I usually would get positive OPKs.
    What I'm doing is two weeks on, starting at the start of my cycle, two weeks off (I've read it's good to have a break). Basically taking from CD1 to O, and abstaining from O to CD1.
    I hope it works too! 4dpo here and have just had the most wretched sleep though. Felt too hot to sleep and ended up getting about four hours I am going to be knackered tonight!

    @doxielove Ahh, I'm in the same boat as you! CD 21 here and no O yet. I took my last digital OPK this morning and it had an error so it didn't give me any result Frustrating, but I'm feeling more relaxed this cycle (we'll see if I'm still saying that during the TWW - haha!). My last two O's were CD 21 and 25 so I'm already scheduling our BDs for this week

    @evansjamie: congratulations!!!

    I'm 13 dpo today. I got a bfn yesterday, but I still have a few days before AF is due. I didn't temp today because I have a crazy fever....

    Good luck to all of you ladies. It's almost February!!

    persimmon / 1388 posts

    @Ash: Yay!!
    @fussygal: Ahh an error on the OPK? That sucks. I haven't given in to the dark side of using OPK's yet, lol. As for BD, I should have saved our BD energy for late last week/this week. I was so paranoid that I'd O earlier and miss it that we're all BD-out and it's a pain to BD now haha. I'm pretty sure I O'd on Thursday (CD 21), though. FF just hasn't given me crosshairs yet.

    @doxielove Those few days while waiting for crosshairs is hard! Thinking good thoughts for you!

    Seriously, what the hell... Not sure whether it's that I've cycled off the maca powder or what, but twice now I've teared up at ads on the tv. One for prenatals with a little fetus' heart beating & one for an ad about baby's first toothbrush. Maybe I'm just tired...

    @SweetMamaM: Don't you hate when that stuff happens?

    I've been feeling WEIRD lately- nauseated by the thoughts of food I normally eat... having um... unpleasant?.... BM's, but with no stomach upset. If I truly O'd when I think, I am 5DPO. But more like 8-10DPO if I O'd when most ladies do. I just can't shake feeling SO weird. I hate that.

    @SweetMamaM @KJfromNJ - I hope it's something else for both of you!!

    I took an early test (Target brand haha) in case I O'd early... neg. Not shocked. I just cannot get over how OFF I feel. Almost all food I normally eat is TOTALLY turning me off. I have spaghetti squash, brussels sprouts, quinoa- lots of stuff I eat all the time- and could not force myself to make it last night. The thought of the quinoa makes me actually nauseus! I litearlly made myself the MOST DISGUSTING dinner. I had a bunch of flour tortillas dipped in an individual size of buffalo chicken dip I mixed up... sans chicken. Yup, I had tortillas, cheese, and hot sauce for dinner.
