@mrssquirreld: It's super fun. I think you would like it! I found that it gave me some hope, despite negative cycles.

@mrssquirreld: hi!! I'm good! I'm still lurking around, but to be honest I'm trying that whole "not stressing" thing which sort of includes not doing too much internet obsessing. Hope all is well with you too - at this point, just killing time and waiting to O! This will be our month!

@chibee: oh sorry! I didn't mean to interrupt your lurking was just checking all was ok?! Glad you are finding some zen this month. Have u stopped charting? I have a super good feeling about this month!!
pear / 1974 posts
@mrssquirreld: still charting!! I may not be as active on this thread lately but doesn't mean i'm not checking up on you girls though. I'm cheering all of us on!

So ladies, I think I may have finally O'd - CD 21 this time!! It was CD 22 last cycle. So it looks like I do have 5 week cycles after all. I hope that's not a bad thing!! But, if I did just O, our timing was pretty good again - yay! I really do hope we get some luck on this thread, ladies....

@Ali: That's great news! If you did it once, I'm sure you can again. Sticky baby dust to you this time! I got a peak reading yesterday and today, so I O'd today most likely. We should be about a day or so apart on FF for POAS, so that's exciting.
@Chibee: I totally get that not stressing means not reading all the time. HB makes me constantly think about babies.
@Mrs. Squirreld: Charting still going well? It's fun to watch yours now. I'm excited to hear your Jenny Renny reading too!
papaya / 10570 posts
@Ambular1025: I thought that when I stalked your chart, earlier! I thought that if we both got BFPs this cycle, our babies would be due a day apart!
nectarine / 2522 posts
@Ali: @ambular1025: totally do that! and then @chibee and I will basically have the same DD if we were both the get knocked up this month too!!! Happy babiness to everyone!!!! lol I can dream right?
pomelo / 5041 posts
@mrssquirreld: I know right? Hey dreaming is perfectly ok. There is always a real chance it happens. That would be so awesome!

@Ali: I totally stalk this thread Always want good news for you guys! Anyway I always Od CD19-21 so it's definitely not a problem to have longer cycles (just means you have to wait longer to O, booo). So happy you Od!!! I gotta go stalk all of your charts..
watermelon / 14467 posts
I have longer cycles too (generally 31-35 days) so charting has really helped me to not freak out as much.
nectarine / 2522 posts
I agree charting has actually made me calmer... Surprising to me!!
What didn't make me calm was my Jenny Renny results! Lol stupid!! Here's to proving her wrong!! ( only as in I will get a BFP earlier!!)
Your reading reveals that your BFP news comes the end of January/beginning of February from a cycle that begins in January. The baby shows as a girl and her EDD/birth date is referenced the 9th of October 2013 and the 24th of September 2013.

@Hanzabelle: Oh no!!! That's ages away! I wonder if she has ever told anyone she doesn't see a baby in their future?? How awful would that be?!
papaya / 10570 posts
@MrsSquirrelD: Sorry, I keep forgetting you have a new name, Squiggle!!! Squigzabelle! I wouldn't worry, though, it's just a bit of fun! Hows about I predict you get your BFP this cycle. There you go!!
How are you doing, anyway? I think I'm 3DPO now. It's been a nightmare trying to work out when I O'd this month, I've been all over the place - stupid m/c!! I just hope I did O!!! I'm dying to test, even now!!!!! But I must wait another 10 days, argh!
papaya / 10570 posts
@Jojogirl: Gasp, you've been LURKING all along?!! Lol. I read somewhere that later O means you have a higher ovarian reserve, which can only be a good thing! I hope so - I've waited until my 30s to start thinking of a family and now I'm like "urgh, why did I wait?". My twenties sucked, anyway - all that partying wore thin by about 23 and it's not like I obtained my dream career either!

@Ali: Hahah... the TTC boards can be slow sometimes so I basically read all the threads when we were TTC! I still do, mostly!
pear / 1974 posts
@Ali: I O pretty late too. First cycle didn't O till CD27! Then last one, CD19 according to FF, and who knows what this cycle will bring. I feel like I still don't have a grasp on my cycle, it's still crazy from coming off the pill or something. You're 3 dpo already! you'll be there before you know it!
@Mrssquirreld: I totally thought that too - if we get BFPs this cycle together we'd practically have the same DD! I like having a cycle buddy, it makes the wait to o, the tww seem not so lonely if that makes any sense.
So... I am CD8 - and I'm still spotting brown since AF???? The red flow stopped CD5 but every day since then I've seen a bit of brown, mixed in what seems like EWCM. I give up. what the hell.
nectarine / 2522 posts
@chibee: omg! Me too this is just freaky now! Everytime I go to the toilet I'm like what the hell! I don't want to O late this month cause DH is going away... What do u think this discharge/spotting means!?
@ali: shhhhh I'm in witness protection... Lol
pomelo / 5041 posts
@mrssquirreld: Don't be disappointed by her reading. At least she says you'll get pregnant! And now it can be a game of trying to beat her reading. I've found that her not thinking I'll be pregnant until November has me being ok when I get BFN's.
@ali: My cycle has been pretty weird too. My monitor and my temps disagree as to when I o'd.
@chibee: sorry that you're still spotting. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I'm sure it's just a weird fluke.
papaya / 10570 posts
Hey ladies! Well, I'm 4DPO and it's so boring!!! I don't have any symptoms - I didn't have any last month, either, so it doesn't mean anything - so I can't symptom spot, it's too early to test..... Meh! It's so frustrating!!
nectarine / 2522 posts
@Ali:
oh the early DPO's are so frustrating! Keep busy!
@ambular1025:
nectarine / 2522 posts
I had such a great weekend. And then my stupid SIL said something really nasty to me and I have felt like crap ever since.
We saw her at the Inlaws house and the first thing she said to me was "are you pregnant or just fat?"
I mean seriously... Wtf. Who is that rude?!
nectarine / 2522 posts
@ambular1025: I know. I wish DH had heard at the time cause he would have fired something back... I was mortified and just said " I'm just fat" and walked off. I have put a little bit of weight on after our honeymoon but I don't look pregnant!!!
On a more exciting note I did my first opk test today! Exciting!! It was negative ofcourse but it was exciting all the less! Lol
pomelo / 5041 posts
@mrssquirreld: I've put on weight since my honeymoon too, so I'm in the same boat. Once about a month or two after the wedding I was eating a bunch camping and my dad asked me if I was pregnant. I was like no dad, apparently just fat lol. How exciting that you're to OPK now! Can't wait for you to get a positive. If you're close to when you think you might ovulate start BD'ing!
nectarine / 2522 posts
@ambular1025: oh I know! I just don't get how people can be so insensitive! How many dpo are you now? Yeah the BDing will begin soon I think cause DH goes away Sunday! I soo hope I O before then! He's on night shift this week so I've told him he has to wake me when he gets home so we can do it!! Lol
nectarine / 2522 posts
@ambular1025: @Ali: @chibee: Whats the earliest you've ever O'd..
nectarine / 2522 posts
@ambular1025: just stalking your chart did you O at CD11 this month?
papaya / 10570 posts
@MrssquirrelD: Firstly, I'm so sorry your SIL said that to you. Next time you see her say "OMG, have you had a stroke? No? Oh no, sorry, you're just ugly, my bad". (NB: I know that was an outrageous thing to say and apologies to anyone who's family members have had a stroke, it's not a laughing matter - it's just this biatch made me so mad!).
As for ovulation - it looks like I have long cycles. Last month it was CD22, this month it's CD21. I was on BCP prior to that and I can't remember my teenage cycles at all!
I'm 7DPO today. This TWW is going so slowly!! I'm convinced that this isn't my month, too. I think I always knew on some deep level that I would concieve on the first cycle but I was also convinced it would take 3 months. When I was pg I knew I would m/c. Now I know AF will come this cycle. I think that next cycle is my month, due date mid August. If I'm right, I might start up a Jenny Renny business, lol!
pomelo / 5041 posts
@Mrssquirreld: I have figured that it's likely I o'd CD 11 or possibly cd 14 (depending on the temps or the monitor). So who knows?! 5-9 dpo lol. FF says I o'd on cd 14, 14, and 13 with previous cycles. I had some really short cycles before I started charting that were like 23-24 days, so I probably o'd pretty early on those as well. You're so funny about late night BD'ing. The things we do for a baby...cause believe me, I'd do it to even though I am not a happy person when you wake me up in the middle of the night.
@Ali: If you find out you're right I might ask you to predict for me, lol. Jenny Renny says this isn't my cycle, but next one is, so I'm hopeful she's right.
pear / 1974 posts
@mrssquirreld: this is only my second real month of charting, but the earliest has been CD19. I'm at CD12 right now, no sign of O yet, as far as i can tell!
pear / 1974 posts
@mrssquirreld: i take that back - major EWCM observed tonight, prob a couple days away from O? which would be earlier than last month!

@MrssquirrelD @Chibee @ambular1025: I have changed my username to Cherrybee for privacy purposes and have taken my picture down. Just so you know - it's me guys!!
pomelo / 5041 posts
@cherrybee: HAHA it took me a minute by process of elimination to figure out who you were lol. If I were smart I'd probably change my name too but I'm too lazy lol.
papaya / 10570 posts
@Ambular1025: It just wasn't sitting right with me, since the "why is privacy important to you?" thread. I was worrying a little about work people finding me out (and it meaning I was overlooked for promotion or something). It was probably very silly but, as Mr Bee was offering to change usernames before the site was opened up, it seemed like a perfect opportunity!
