Good luck n baby dust

As much as I love these threads, I was hoping I wouldn't be joining this one (don't we all...) but alas, here I am.

Current Cycle Day: CD2

Ovulation Date: Last two cycles have been on CD20 and 23 (before that they were all over the place post-BC). I'm guessing this cycle, I'll O sometime around June 13-17?

POAS date/Usual Cycle Length: First 2 cycles post-BC were long (40 and 62 days), the last 2 seem to have "normalized" at 32 and 34 days (roughly what they were pre-BC 12 years ago...). I'm thinking I"m just barely going to get a June POAS date in - somewhere around June 25-29th? TBD, I guess!

Cycles trying: Technically this is cycle #5 post-BC but this is only cycle #3 where we're gotten some BDing in around O.

BD timing: EOD once AF ends until O is confirmed. Every day once I get a + OPK.

For Fun: What's your favorite summer activity?: Vacationing in Martha's Vineyard!

@doxielove: I know, I'm sure things will move slowly. The good thing is it is a 4 day work week so maybe that will help speed things up a bit!

@LovelyPlum: Thanks friend. I know I speak for everyone when I say you are more than welcome to hang out here in June.

@doxielove: I know Now I'm trying to ignore my stupid Cheri22 reading because she said May too (either conceive, find out or be due)! Excited to see the rear of your TWW!!

@mrs. 64: I hope so... And for everyone else!!

Hi Ladies! Thought I'd check in here and ask a question too.
I thought I'd be in my TWW starting Sun or Mon but I'm having a really weird cycle this month (for me). Since November of last year I've gotten a + OPK on the 11th or 12th day of my cycle like clockwork, even in the couple of months since my MC (we only started trying again last month but I was still taking OPKs since March so that I could get a good handle on my body). This month I didn't get my first + until yesterday (which was day 13). I know its only 1-2 days off but I haven't seen that yet.
I'm pretty new to FF and just started temping on CD1 of this cycle. It was predicting my O to be Sun or yesterday based on past cycles (I retroactively added my cycle info to FF) but now it shows no prediction at all, even though I recorded a + OPK yesterday.
Anyone else who is more familiar with FF have a similar experience? Will I still get crosshairs if my temps go up, even though its not showing a 'prediction' on my calendar anymore?

On a sidenote, I'm glad to be a part of the June POAS this month and already don't feel so alone. It has really felt that way since our MC since we didn't really tell anyone. Though my hubby has been great, its not the same as talking to women. Rooting for all of us!

@AuntieEm: I don't use FF, so I don't have any advice. But, we are glad you are here! I know that for me, TTC and miscarrying in particular have felt very lonely at times, too. That is what is so great about these boards-we all support each other I hope you get your cross hairs soon. Baby dust to you!

@AuntieEm: Ditto what @pui said - FF takes a couple days before showing cross hairs. Sometimes they're solid lines and sometimes they're dashed lines, depending on how much info you input into FF! If you got the +OPK yesterday, you would be Oing today/tomorrow and then your temps should go up. So it might take some time for FF to register it! If you want to share your chart, a bunch of us on here use it and you could friend us!

@PUI: Thanks for the help! I'm going to try to upload a pic of my chart now.

@LovelyPlum: Thanks so much for your words of encouragement! I don't know your story but sorry you went through it too. As much as I don't WANT anyone else to have had a miscarriage (I wouldn't wish it on anyone), its comforting to see that I'm not the only one and it happens all the time. It makes me feel less like a freak Everyone around me is pregnant and you just think "why was I different?"

@AuntieEm: You can post a link to your home page on FF! To get there, click on the Fertility Friend logo in the top left corner, then copy the link in your address bar!

@AuntieEm: If you log in, towards the right is a link for "Sharing" - under that is "Set Up." At the top of "Set Up" is a link to your chart. It's a random bunch of letters and numbers but if you click "Change URL," you can personalize it to whatever name you want. "Get Sharing Code/Buttons" will give you other links to use too (fancier ones to show a picture of your chart with the link, etc.). Here's my chart: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/LindsayInNY
(Where in NY are you?!)

@LindsayInNY: preach it, sister.

@LindsayInNY: I was on UES for years and just last month we moved to Murray Hill. You?

Thinking of you ladies!!! Hoping lots of BFP start popping up soon!

@fussygal: glad you're back. Good luck, lady!

@PEAPIE: Thank you!! We'll see!

@lovelyplum: AF is supposed to be here on June 4. 7DPO right now. I dont feel any different though? Some cramping I guess? Sleeping a lot? But, I always tend to sleep a lot. Trying to not symptom spot because I am such an anxious person anyway haha!

@citymouse: Fun! OK, I promise not to encourage symptom-spotting. But, I am really excited for you!

@AuntieEm: thanks lady And I'm impressed, you've got it all together for only being on this board this month! Hoping it all pays off for you.

I'm just jumping in to say good luck to everyone!!! I didn't ever get to join one of these threads because our BFP came quicker than we thought it would, so I'm going to adopt you guys as my own, haha. Hoping for lots of yeses this month!

@doxielove: Thanks for the welcome and I am crossing all appendages for you that it's good cramping!

Still no temp rise today. But I did feel some pinching on the left side this morning so maybe it's just happening. I've never felt O pain before but I also wasnt really looking for it. If thats the case we didn't time things as fabulously as I had thought. We shall see. Trying not to overthink all of this but it's hard not to!

How's everyone else this AM?
