I love this group already! We've got POASers all throughout May. The odds most certainly should be in our favor.

@MrsMcD: we're still cycle twins!
Did you get a confirmed O yet? I think I'll o in the next few days.
GOLD / pomegranate / 3938 posts
@Crystal: my cycle twin!! Hooray! I don't temp so I can't really confirm ovulation. (Can anyone, really??) but I got a positive opk followed by a negative the next day, so I now consider myself 2dpo. I hope you O soon!

@MrsMcD: Thanks!How are you feeling about this month?
I am getting progressively darkening OPKs, and finally had some fertile CM today, so I hope that means things are happening soon! (Seriously, where else is all this a normal conversation? lol)
I am also having really strong pains in my left pelvis (ovaries?). Its fairly harsh and annoying.

I this thread!
I am going to be a cheerleader this month, and will be *wishing* and *hoping* for lots of sticky BFPs all over this board.
I have no idea what the *F* is going on with this cycle, but I definitely won't be POAS in May. Two reasons: (1) after the roller coaster of my April cycle, I promised DH that I wouldn't test before AF was late in May*, and (2) this month I should O from my bad side anyway. So, cheerleading!!!
*Those of you who know me and my serious POAlltheSs addiction will know that that was an excruciating promise to make. DH - like many of you - just doesn't get the point of early testing. He does get the concept of wanting CPs on your record, but that argument was no match for the emotional drain of this cycle (CP? EP? it's anyone's guess). So we compromised and decided I wouldn't POAS in May, and we would reevaluate for June.
And, yeah, I am totally re-purposing the "team green" emoticon for our 6+ month purposes. I am going to call it the "WTF?!?!?" emoticon.

@septca: I'm still maintaining my positivity, optimism and stickiness for you! THAT is why you'll be a cheerleader here and for no other reason!! Keep on sticking baby septca!! (And I love the repurpose of the team green emoticon!)

@mrs. tictactoe: The cheerleader emoticon may be the most amazing thing I have ever seen. You are so creative!

Cycle #: 16
POAS/AF Date: AF is due May 3
I'm going to start temping again when AF arrives (love how I've completely moved to using "when," never "if.") Also, 2 weeks from today is my long overdue HSG!
@Crystal: Sounds like you'll be Oing soon! FX!

@septca: sending you lots of good Juju. Either for a surprise turnaround in your pregnancy or a surprise pregnancy during turn around. I still have hope for you.
GOLD / pomegranate / 3938 posts
@Crystal: Sounds like O is coming!! Get your BDing on!!!
@mediagirl: Effie Trinket! Yes!
@dc yoga bee: You better get your BDing on, also!
@septca: I second the liking of your re-purposing. It works perfect for our group. And I'm also still hoping and praying for a sticky baby right now for you.
@doxielove: Good luck, lady!! you are in the TWW!
blogger / pomegranate / 3201 posts
@septca: I did NOT do that!!!! I don't even know who did. I just copied and pasted!
grapefruit / 4028 posts
@doxielove: I hope so! My friend had a similar situation with pains, and her dr told her she was hopefully gearing up for "exuberant ovulation," lol. I hope that's what mine is!
@mrs. tictactoe: I love your cheerleader emoticon!
@septca: I am in agreement with @LindsayInNY! I think you will remain a cheerleader as a "graduate." And I also love how you utilized the team green emoticon.

@septca: @mrs. tictactoe: Is that what that is?!?!? Man, I thought it was like a little reindeer or something
GOLD / pomegranate / 3688 posts
@Crystal: @MrsMcD: @LindsayInNY: @mrs. tictactoe: I seriously think and might become the most popular emoticons here now. Because those are the things I think most often when I am TTC ... when I am cursing at my body and those white pee sticks.
GOLD / pomegranate / 3938 posts
@septca: I agree about those little figures. Sadly, we have different emotions in here! But I think we also have the best sense of humor.
GOLD / pomegranate / 3938 posts
@Crystal: I'm just feeling about the same amount of hopeful and meh as I have the last 11 cycles. My BDing timing was great. But whatevs. I can't really feel one way or the other too much anymore. Its just silly to do so, in my mind. And with that, I will ask how you are feeling?!?! Bahahahah.

Cycle # 16, but only 2 since my severe endo was removed... This cycle was IUI+injectables.
POAS: 5/6
Here's hoping!!!
Wishing everyone the best!!
grapefruit / 4028 posts
@MrsMcD: I also feel a weird mix of hopeful and meh. We got a little burned out on BDing so many days in a row since last month I O'd late, so I am hoping I do O soon so that doesn't happen again. My temps are much higher this month than last, so we will see what happens.
@septca: Me too, friend. Those are perfect for describing so many things.

@mrs. tictactoe: I moved myself to May 12. I may end up testing early, but this is a more realistic date for me.

So, I'm totally butting into this thread, but I saw some people mention the cheerleader emoticon, and I just wanted to say that, when I first started lurking in the POAS threads and saw that little cheerleader, I actually thought it was a woman's reproductive system ... the ovaries, uterus, and little egg/bebe. HAHAHA. Ridiculous, right?!
*\o/*
But I still kind of see it ....
Sorry to thread-jack!

@theotherstark: Oh my gosh..... Now that's all I will ever imagine about that little symbol. That's hilarious!

@Crystal: You actually moved yourself to May 11! But whatevs!

@theotherstark: OMG, that totally works too! Lol
@MrsMcD: well, we all knew I wouldn't be able to hold out til the 12th! Lol

@septca: Just wanted to pop in and say I've been keeping my fingers crossed for you that your BFP would make a turn for the best and you would have a healthy pregnancy. I'm sorry it didn't work out that way.
