Jumping in in the midst of a super weird cycle - not sure what's going on or if I will POAS in June or July. I typically have long but regular ish cycles (35 to 40 days) pretty reliable O signs, and conceived LO 1 as a surprise. Of course, the month after my IUD came out (Paragard, non hormonal) I'm having what seems like either an annovulatory cycle or one where O either did not line up with my usual symptoms or maybe hasn't happened yet. I've had 4 days of super light spotting and having my usual LP symptoms now, so not sure what to think. PG tests have been negative.
I'd love any ideas anyone has on this super bizarro cycle.
Congrats to all the positives so far!
Cycle day: 44
TTC Cycle: 1
Ovulation Date: no idea - see above
POAS Date: no idea - see above
Baby #: 2
What's up this month: Long weekend away with my husband starting this Saturday!
For Fun - Favourite Summer Song of all time: Bob Marley Could you be loved - always feels like I should be on the beach with a cocktail when I hear this one. -
@Smurfette: @josina: thanks! I was shaking when I saw the result. If all goes well we'll be rocking 3 under 3 for a couple of months.
@Revel: that sounds really awkward. Hope you'll be out of limbo soon.
-
@Pumuckl: thanks! Maybe there is some magic in posting here bc it seems like AF had arrived. Wouldn't think I would be cheering that on a ttc month but I'll just be happy for the fresh start. Congrats to you btw!
I'll be following along but won't be POAS until July
-
Unfortunately I am out this month on to July and month 15.
-
@bloomingflower: boo, keeping FX July will be your month.
@Revel: Hope you find your answer soon.

@bloomingflower:
@Revel:
good luck this cycle

@bloomingflower: see you there

I'm on cycle day 13 and I haven't gotten a positive OPK test yet. Which wouldn't be that weird except I have short cycles (25-26 days) and I *think* I usually ovulate around day 11 or so. I haven't done OPKs in the past or even taken temps but that is when I have noticed the lubey-gooey CF.
This month I had the lotion-y stuff on day 9-10 but haven't really been progressing to the eggwhite or lube-goo stuff. OPKs since day 9 all negative and it is now day 13, which my app predicts as O day. Also my temps have been all over the place so far, though still in the low range, from 96.4 to 97.2 (I am counting a 97.5 as an outlier b/c I drank the night before and slept in late and I know both can affect waking temp). This is the first month I've been closely tracking temps so I'm not sure if that is normal for me or not.
We DTD on day 11 and will probably do it again tonight. But I am wondering if you have any insight into why my cycle might be off or weird this month? Ever since I have been paying marginal attention to CF I've had the good stuff around day 11-12, a day or two before my app predicts O. Since I only recently learned how predictive of O CF really is (reading the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" - what a mind opener!), I had in the past focused more on DTD on day 13 when my app predicted O.
This past month I had a real squinter of a preg test then got my period on day 27. It was an awful, awful period that lasted five days (normally mine are 3 and maybe a super light flow on day 4) and I still had cramps on day 4 (that NEVER happens). So I am wondering if anyone think it's possible that I had a chemical or miscarriage (also if you could explain what a chemical is that would be appreciated - I'm not totally clear) and thus may not ovulate this month? Or may ovulate late? There aren't really any other factors that might delay ovulation this month, like stress or travel.
Of course now that we are approaching O time I'm overthinking everything - so if you think that's the case, let me know that too.
-
What the hell... Day 14 & another negative OPK...????
-
@bizwitch: Hopefully someone else can chime in and answer your questions! I've never used OPKS or done any kind of charting so I'm no help.
Tomorrow is my POAS date but assuming AF doesn't show I'm going to wait till Saturday morning. I'm fine if she does show since it's only cycle 1 but what an awesome Father's Day present that would be. I did have some cramping Friday-Sunday.
-
@bizwitch: I have no idea about OPKs so I am no help. Sorry
Hope someone has some ideas.@josina: You are so much stronger than me. I wouldn't be able to wait to test after AF was due. Cramping sounds promising!
-
Congrats to all of these positives! I caved and tested early today...negative. Still a couple days till AF is due, but I don't feel terribly optimistic. Waiting is the worst...thinking good thoughts for all!
-
I waited too long to come back and update our roll call. If I made any mistakes with dates or positives, please let me know.

I have shorter cycles (average 26/27 days), so I have a second POAS date this month.
Cycle day: 12
TTC Cycle: 10
Ovulation Date: sometime this week
POAS Date: June 29th
Baby #: 2 -
This is my first ever post, but all of the waiting each month is driving me crazy, so I figured this could help! It seems like I'm a little late to this, but hopefully it's ok for me to contribute!
Cycle Day: 24
TTC Cycle: 4
Ovulation Date: 6/11 (I think)
POAS Date: Will probably start 6/21, although I know it's early.
Baby #: 1
What's up this month: This is my 2nd month using an OPK and 1st month using preseed.
For Fun - Favourite Summer Song of all time: Honestly, the only summer song I can think of is Summer Girls by LFO. For some reason I still seem to know most of the lyrics whenever it comes on the radio. -
@PeaceLily: good luck!!
@nana87: eeeeeeeeekkkk!!!Imma sneak on in here...
CD: 32
DPO: 3? Hard to say. We DTD on Monday, and I have a feeling that I O'd later than Ovia thinks I did. I'm going to call O on June 12, which means we are totally in business this cycle. Eek!
POAS date: I'll be in London June 20-25, so probably after that-June 26?? Unless I break down and buy one to bring with me...
What's going on this cycle: I just came back from out of town business and am feeling off to begin with. This is is our first month thinking about #2, and I'm trying not to psych myself out. I have a feeling about this one, so I guess we will see. I'm on baby aspirin for a history of RPL. Next month we try for real if this doesn't work out. Mostly,
that I'm even here!
-
@PeaceLily: @Mrs. D: @LovelyPlum: FX this is your month too!
@LovelyPlum: isn't it the craziest feeling to pull the trigger... I was shaking pretty bad for at least an hour when I saw the result thid month...
-
So I may dip my toe in here this month!!!
Cycle Day: 7
TTC Cycle: 1
Ovulation Date: 6/22 (Technically for a 28 day cycle, though I've never had a 28 day cycle in my life!)
POAS Date: Will probably start 7/2, because I know I never wait the full 2 weeks!
Baby #: 2What's up this month: This is my first cycle PP. I had a really short (3-4 days) period, and it was light. But I'm starting to temp this month!
For Fun - Favourite Summer Song of all time: Favorite one is the Cheerleader song that was popular last year!!
-
Cycle Day: 17
TTC Cycle: 2
Ovulation Date: 6/12 but it may have been 6/11
POAS Date: I will probably wait till the day of my expected period so 6/27
Baby #: 1What's up this month: My sister in law is having her baby next week (hopefully) so I'm trying to concentrate on the excitement of becoming an auntie. =]
-
@MrsBrewer: @Tionn3: good luck!
@Pumuckl: for real. Part of me thinking I'm crazy. Part of me is crazy excited. But I think I'm ready to get this show on the road!
-
@LovelyPlum: good luck mama. Nice to see you in the POAS boards!
-
@LovelyPlum: yayyyy I'm so glad to see you here!
-
@LovelyPlum: So wishing you that you'll be on the due date boards really really soon!
And isn't potential babymaking DTD the best 
@Tionn3: Good luck this month and yay for becoming an auntie!
-
@delight: @nana87: @Pumuckl: thank you!!!
-
@LovelyPlum: Thanks good luck to you as well!!! How old is your LO #1?
-
No AF yet, testing tomorrow!
Of course as soon as I post this, she'll probably show. -
Well, I'm out. AF has reared her ugly head, accompanied by some truly vicious cramps. Big congratulations to all the
and on to next month!
-
@josina: eek, getting excited for you!
@msmilkshake: sorry about that! Hope July is your month.
-
this morning!
Good luck to everyone else poas this month! -
@josina: congratulations!!!
6 DPO over here. Cramps and gassy, but I'm not buying it yet. My nipples are way too pink still for me to be pregnant.
-
@josina: Congratulations! Really exciting!
-
I had another MC, Im out. Maybe ill join next months bfp.
-
@Coffee-lover: no
I am so sorry for you!
-
@Coffee-lover: I am so sorry. I had two before my DD. They are awful. Be gentle with yourself these next few days, and reach out if you need anything.
-
CD: 27
TTC cycle: 10Ovulation Day: I was travelling, so I think it got pushed back to 6/5 or so, judging from when my typical luteal phase cramping started.
POAS day: this Tuesday or Wednesday! LP almost always lasts 15 days, so that gives me until expected AF.
This would be my first!!
My fav summer song is Summertime by Ella Fitzgerald.
-
@Coffee-lover:
-
@LovelyPlum: @Pumuckl: thanks!
@Coffee-lover: sorry. -
Hella red spotting this morning. I'm either off on O date, and therefore not pregnant, or this is some implantation bleeding. I didn't have it like this with DD, so I'm confused. I feel like hell, though. Not sure what that's about.
good luck this cycle
Hope someone has some ideas.
nana87 @babybean404: @Coffee-lover @gentlelunette: @Pumuckl: 
that I'm even here!
I am so sorry for you!
