    @doxielove: ugh I'm joining you on the sleepy train, eight hours last night was nowhere near enough. Worked a usual day today, dragged myself round the supermarket and now curled up on the couch. If I'm not pg, I'm pretty disappointed in my lack of stamina.

    I think next Monday will be an interesting day for the Feb board girls! From what I can gather, @KJfromNJ: , @Mrs. J: and I are all testing - @Ash: will you be testing then too, seeing you are on the same CD as me?

    @SweetMamaM: no ma'am. I'm not testing till the 9th-ish. I'm not even sure I'm in the tww yet. But good luck Monday!

    @Ash: I keep on tossing up whether I should or not. Monday is 10dpo for me, I probably should be good and wait til 14 dpo too which would be Friday but i don't know that I can!

    @fussygal: I am a MAJOR offender when it comes to entering dummy temps. Totally guilty.

    STILL NO O DETECTED FOR ME. Wtf. CD28. Grrrr...I'll probably have to push back my POAS date since it was based on me Oing on cd26. Clearly, FF doesn't think that happened.

    @MrsCastro: I had about 7 days of spotting around what I *thought* was O (FF didn't agree since I have no temp spike or cross hairs yet...) I've read that it may or may not be related to O. Such a crap shoot.

    @doxielove: i only had two days of it (once each day)...i did an OPK last night and it was very positive, plus i am feeling the O cramps today...i just have never had that before...hopefully it is a good sign...

    @MrsCastro: yay that's exciting! I think I felt o this month too, and I usually don't.

    persimmon / 1491 posts

    @SweetMamaM: i can usually tell when O is coming because of slight cramping i get...i have been doing OPK's the past 3-4 months religiously, this month i have been real relaxed about it, which is a good thing, decided to check where i was with an OPK and surprised to see a BFPOPK....to a great out come this month!!!

    @SweetMamaM: LOL you are right! My period is expected on Monday so if I don't get spotting Sunday like normal I'll test Monday AM. ANNOYING. I've had so many signs but I think it's mostly just me seeing what I want to see. Oh well, I guess we'll see right?

    I think I might need to just GET OFF hellobee until my period shows or doesn't on Monday... I am reading into everything wayyy too much and searching all the charts and DPO symptoms by day... just too much. I've had those "so many symptoms!" months before and well, clearly I'm not KU. I am so sick of getting my hopes up. So adios ladies until Monday... if I can stay away!

    Rolling over from January!

    Current Cycle Day: CD3

    Ovulation Date: February 9 or 10

    POAS date/Usual Cycle Length: Feb 23/24.

    Cycles trying: This will be our 14th...

    BD timing: all of our diagnostics checked out, so I'll be starting on Clomid tonight, actually. Then, I'll be going in for monitoring and hopefully taking my HCG shot on the 9th if there are the right amount of mature follies. No IUI, but just timed BD. It'll be interesting having this much control and knowledge about exactly what's going on in there!

    Plans for Valentine's Day this year: Fancy shmancy dinner!

    No need to drrrrrragggg this one out.....despite my resolution to not take my temps during the TWW, I did it anyway the last three morning and have seen two big drops, so I know I'm out.

    Good luck to the rest of you!

    @SweetMamaM: If I knew I was KU, I'd test early just to see that second line a little sooner... but I always wait and either see a BFN or AF.

  15. Ash

    honeydew / 7909 posts

    @MrsCastro: Yeeeeeeee! Hope that's a good sign! Baby prayers your way!

    @KJfromNJ: hope to see you sunday or monday with a BFP announcement! :))

    @Happygal: So sorry! :((

    Although this is a whacked out crazy cycle (CD23 and no obvious O signs), I enjoy taking it easy and only doing an opk here and there and BDing when we want. But on that note, I'm stocking up on wondfo and smiley opks for next month!

    @doxielove: We're in the same boat. Waaaaaaaaaaaah!

  17. doxielove

    persimmon / 1388 posts

    @MrsCastro: FX for you!!
    @Happygal:
    @Ash: I don't like this boat!! I want OFF this boat!! CD 29 and still no obvious thermal shift on my chart. BOOOOO on FF!! lol.

  18. Ash

    honeydew / 7909 posts

    @doxielove: well one good thing is we're on it together!! Not gonna be lonely on this boat... cuz I don't think I'm getting off until AF shows since I'll never know my O date. But I DO hope O shows so you can tell FF to shove it.

    Boo, AF showed up today. This cycle was 21 days, the last was 23, the one before 32. What the heck, body? I know I O'ed this month, but my LP is clearly too short. Has anyone else had this issue?

    Still no O for me, I'm day 21.

    Hi girls! How's everyone feeling? I am in the TWW now - pos on OPK on Monday (CD17), EWCM on Tues (CD18), so I'm calling myself 3DPO now which may be a little off since I'm not temping. I've been having some cramping, but nothing like last month (which was my first on Clomid). I'm hoping this month is it because it would be an EDD in October, which is what we've always wanted. We were just originally hoping it would be Oct. of 2011, not of 2013!

    I am hoping to curb my insane POAS habit this month. I used up all my Wondfos last month and only have a 2-pack of FRER left. So I'm going to wait and save them for 12 and 14 DPO. Or, I'm going to TRY to wait that long.

    @MrsCastro: So excited for you! Good luuuuck!

    @Happygal: I'm so sorry! Hoping next month is yours!

    @Mrs. J Are you just coming off BC? My LP increased by a few days each month (so far anyway) since coming off BP in September. Maybe your's will lengthen each cycle?

    @Doxielove: I think I'm on 2DPO right now, so I'm going to change my POAS day to the 11th.

    @Mrs. J: wow, that was super short. At that stage I'd be tempted to see my doctor!
    @Ash: some days I feel it, some days I don't... I vary between finding every other reason under the sun for my symptoms and talking to and praying for my little bloat belly.
    AFM, 7dpo ish here and definitely struggling with fatigue, although it may just be that the school year has started back. Got super hangry last night when DH was organizing takeout, that was weird.

  28. Mrs. J

    pomelo / 5132 posts

    @fussygal: This was my third cycle off BCP. I'm hoping it will lengthen, but so far it's just gone backwards!
    @SweetMamaM: I know..I'm concerned, but is it too early to talk to the doc? Will they say that 3 cycles off BCP isn't enough to know what's going on with me?

  29. SweetMamaM

    pear / 1743 posts

    @Mrs. J: the fact that it seems to be shortening would concern me enough to go, one would expect it to lengthen. They may decide to do nothing but at least it will be on the docs records so you aren't getting dicked around with a "wait and see" approach if you need to visit in another few months.

  30. littlek

    GOLD / squash / 13576 posts

    For those who went off BC, did you feel "off". My body is crazy, I have been crazy tired and the past two days I've felt sick. I know I can't be pregnant since we only had sex once since my last period and I still haven't had a surge.

  31. Mrs. J

    pomelo / 5132 posts

    @SweetMamaM: Good idea. Ugh, why is this so complicated? They seriously try to scare the crap out of you in health class that it happens so easily, but really people...baby making is HARD!

  32. Mrs. J

    pomelo / 5132 posts

    @littlek: I was really really really tired the last few days and now I have a sore throat...but it looks like I am actually getting sick, not KU sick.

  33. SweetMamaM

    pear / 1743 posts

    @Mrs. J: ugh tell me about it, teenage me is laughing at the fact that adult me, this month, drank powder that tasted like turnips, paid someone to stab her in the tummy and arches of the foot with needles, peed on sticks daily and made her sick husband have sex with her once she got a positive.
    "Just once, unprotected"... I wish.

    @littlek - Other than a longer cycle (at least for the first one, not sure going forth), I didn't notice much post-BC.

  35. MrsCastro

    persimmon / 1491 posts

    @SweetMamaM: i just laughed a little...i hate that phrase "Just once, unprotected"... i am beginning to think teenagers are lying...

    i am also begininng to hate "we werent trying", i feel its such an insult to those of use that ARE trying, and it hasnt happend...

  36. SweetMamaM

    pear / 1743 posts

    @MrsCastro: amen... Add to that "it just happened", "it was an oops baby" and "relax and it will happen".
    Thank god I don't have a pregnant student (well, that I know of) like I did last year!

    @SweetMamaM: this journey has taught me how sensative this subject can be, along with things you should never say to another women.

  38. Ash

    honeydew / 7909 posts

    @doxielove: I'm gonna change my date to February 14th-ish. I saw lots of ewcm today so O should be around the corner. I hope!

  39. Mrs.Someone

    pomelo / 5228 posts

    Just to add to the lovely things women say to other women without thinking... Someone told a group of us that when she got pregnant she cried out of panic because she didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Then another girl said, "ME TOO!" Ugh

    Hi everyone, I'd like to join in :-). We've been trying since last May, but I have PCOS and only ovulated once since then (thanks to multiple doses of Clomid), which resulted in a CP. Clomid stopped working after that once, so I did 2 different doses Femara this cycle, and finally had a good follicle! I triggered yesterday so I should ovulate tomorrow.

    Current Cycle Day: CD27

    Ovulation Date: Saturday 2/2

    POAS date: 2/12

    Cycles trying: Since last May

    BD timing: Yesterday, today and tomorrow

    Plans for Valentine's Day this year: DH made reservations at a nice restaurant we like. We'll probably just have a nice romantic dinner and come home to some tivo.
