@doxielove: hoping you get the news you want in a few more days!
@sweetmamam: I just recently started going to the chiropractor as well. my pelvis was also out of whack, but she didn't say it was sprained. I am combining my adjustments with massage (one my chiropractor recommended). I feel a world of difference! I am in week 4 of going!
@sugar.biscuit: fingers crossed you'll see 2 lines this month! It is totally frustrating seeing the white stick when all you want is a line!

Okay so I just started getting sharp pinching pains just below & to the left of my belly button. Like being poked with a needle...I've never felt anything this sharp before. Could this be implantation at 7dpo? I always thought that would be like dull cramps.

Well I finally took a test and it was a BFN. Still no sign of AF. CD47. I'm feeling like there is something wrong with me.

@Sugar.Biscuit: that is what mine felt like on 6-7 DPO! Mine were on my right side though. Random sharp pains that left as quickly as they came. FX for your BFP!!

@Cara M. 17: @Ash: eeeekkk! I've blown through my stash since the accident. DH found the extra box I just picked up at walgreens and he shook his head. Now to wait a few more days and not blow through these too lol

@Sugar.Biscuit: I'll give you some of my self control! I tested around 13dpo.

@Sugar.Biscuit: Just in case you need your bubble popped a little bit to hold out... I had the same exact thing last month, lasting for a day, and nothing I hope its real for you though!

@Mrs.Someone: thanks for the kill joy It very well could have been a random cyst popping (don't know if I have those) or weird spasm. I'm in the tww after 13 cycles I'm allowed to be a little crazy & optimistic lol. If I'm really pregnant I want to be able to remember every crazy little sign & symptom I've had.
I guess I'm a little extra excited because it's the exact same spot I felt pains at during the tww before my MC.
ETA: I know all to well that it is still really early... I'll try to hold out till at least monday.

@pui: Fwiw, I got AF on CD62 this week, after ovulating on CD49. So doesnt necessarily mean something is wrong. Hang in there

@LindsayInNYC: Thanks I wish I had tracked BBT this cycle! I have never had cycle this long before... I've just started having long cycles. My cycles were 30-33 days consistently, but last cycle was 41 days and this cycle is 47 days and counting.
bananas / 9229 posts
@pui: I started temping midcycle and used OPKs too. First cycle was 41 or something days. This was 61 but I knew I Oed at 49 which helped. It's going off BC that's totally messed with my body!

Ok, now that the end of March is here, I'm pretty sure I can be taken off the sidelines list :). Maybe April? Probably July

Well, I'm out this month, boo!
Going to take a couple of months off to avoid another holiday birthday close to C's. Also am going to work on getting in better shape and getting closer to weaning.
Good luck ladies!

@doxielove: 10dpo is really early still! Do you still have the lotion like CM?
persimmon / 1388 posts
@ladybee: No, not anymore. I've actually been pretty much symptomless the past 3 or so days. Today is usually the day AF arrives (I have had short LP's coming off Bcp...blah!) sooooo even if I'm not KU, it's a small victory that I haven't been spotting!
Oh, and my temps are still up: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/doxielove
nectarine / 2063 posts
@doxielove: yay for temps staying up! Thats a good sign. FX for you!
grapefruit / 4079 posts
@doxielove: looks promising and you're right, a longer LP is a victory! Fx!

My temps took a dip today but its way to early for AF. Any guesses? I did sleep alone and wake up in the middle of the night to pee. I always figured my temp would be higher from that not lower. http://FertilityFriend.com/home/40d2fb/
persimmon / 1388 posts
@Sugar.Biscuit: Hmm, I don't really have any thoughts, but I will say I agree with you that it seems too early for a pre-AF dip based on your other charts. Maybe it's just a fluke temp dip that you'll end up discarding? (Or maybe implantation dip!?)

@Sugar.Biscuit: if you are sleeping alone, wouldn't that make you colder? You wouldn't have your DHWB (darling hot water bottle) with you.
nectarine / 2063 posts
@doxielove: who knows it went back up again today. I tested this am and it was negitive. I learned I really don't like the tests with blue dye, right after I dipped it it looked like there was a second line & then a few min later it wasn't there. FF took my coverageline away too wth?!

Ladies-can you help me decipher a mystery? My body is doing some weird things and I am stumped.
For the last two days, I have been having very strange, stabbing, bend over painful cramps-they're around my belly button or so, and I've been thinking they're gas pains. But three days in a row they keep coming in waves,.and meds aren't helping. Now, two days in a row, I have cooked food that sounds appetizing in theory, but as soon as I smell.it, I can't eat it.
So far, I have attributed this to a stomach bug. DH thinks I might be pregnant, though. This wouldn't be so weird, except that according to my past charts, O would be around today or tomorrow. But I did have a big one day temp surge 8 days ago. I don't use FF so I can't upload a screen shot, but I will type in temps if that helps.
I am trying to be rational and not get my hopes up. I had a BFN yesterday, which I thought would be the case in any event. Any ideas? Thanks!

@LovelyPlum: tough to say, if you are not sure where in your cycle you might be. If you did O 8 days ago, it could be implantation cramps, in which case you'd still be getting BFNs, but I'm not sure if you'd be getting food aversions that early. Maybe? Also, I get gas like cramps a few days before O, so could be that too! But that also doesn't explain the aversions... If you feel up to it, I say bd just in case!!
@doxielove: sounds promising!!! Fx!

@Sugar.Biscuit: I've heard from a lot of ladies that the do not like blue dye tests (lots of wonky results). Maybe try a digital or a FRER (pink dye)??
11dpo, and yet another BFN for me. Getting used to seeing negatives! My temp rose even more today so I was pretty pumped to test, too. I swear, I thought I saw a ghost of a line on my wondfo...so I used my last FRER...aaaannnndd....big fat obvious negative. It's still earlyish to test, so I'm going to keep testing every day until I see a positive, or AF!!

@doxielove: the only reason I bought them was cause they were on sale & I didn't want to drive across town to get the dollar ones. I might grab a couple while I'm out today. Not feeling so good about this cycle so I might hold out a few days, I've waisted so much money this cycle on sticks.
My fingers are crossed for you. Your chart looks very promising!
eggplant / 11408 posts
@Pirouette: thanks. I figured the answer was wait it out (and BD just in case) :)I m just so confused by the sensation...it is bizarre.
clementine / 770 posts
@LovelyPlum: I think those are Ovulation cramps. The same thing happens to me EXACTLY as you have described it...Waves of weird cramps/pains. They usually last for 2-3 days for me from around the day before O to about 2 days after. Regular pain meds work for a bit tho. I found out the cramps are called endometrial or subendometrial contractions.
FYI: i still don't know if they are normal.....
pomegranate / 3331 posts
@Beetones: I hate O cramps, and feel like they are a bit unfair. I mean, everything else about O makes it easier to BD, and you even supposedly look more attractive during your fertile window! but then you get these stupid cramps, and they sometimes make BD a little less enjoyable for me...not cool! just feels wrong to get those cramps, evolutionarily speaking
persimmon / 1331 posts
@Pirouette: I also read that men find women most attractive around ovulation, but that women are least "in the mood" during that time! So what does THAT mean evolutionary-wise?! Haha.
Men:"I want to be on you".
Women:"I don't want it, but oh ok, I guess".
pomegranate / 3331 posts
@Emsmems: ha, really?! I always thought women were more in the mood around O! Sounds about right...men can make a baby any time, women get a few hours each month, haha. And they get cramps and aren't in the mood. That's really fair
persimmon / 1331 posts
@Pirouette: haha, yes, and then we get to carry the baby and go through labor! I guess we know why God made us the prettier and smarter sex though... He had to balance it out somehow!
