Hellobee Boards

@ShayNanigans: i'm sorry

I think I might have ovulated later than I expected, so I'm going to hold off on testing until later in the week. Maybe the 25th at the earliest. I'm scared!! Not because I'm scared to be pregnant, but I'm scared to NOT be pregnant.

I have a good feeling about all those waiting to test this month! We will end on a ton of I just know it!! Hang in there, ladies!!! *\o/*

@Boopers: Hang in there! I am also on day 31- and nothing yet. Lets just keep hoping! I can't test though because I can't handle getting another BFN. Good luck to you!

@Boopers: The cycle that I took B6 definitely messed it up! I took it after I got a +OPK but then ended up actually Oing almost a week later!

@Boopers: @Claire.Peonies: If it makes either of you feel any better, I've had cycles where I've Oed on CD30+ - this being one of them. Talk about time going by SO slowly!!

Hey guys - was planning to keep my big mouth shut and just lurk but here I am anyways. On CD 36, still no AF but two expensive BFNs - we were ntnp this month and since DH was out of town nearly all month, minimal time together for BD and since I didn't temp/chart, I have no idea if anything was well timed. I am just feeling so frustrated cuz my gut says I'm not pregnant but my body won't just give in and send AF already. My cycles pre-Iud/baby were allll over the place in length so I don't know why I would be surprised, but still totally annoyed about the place where I seem to be stuck.

Sorry for the word vomit. Lesson learned - charting is good. Hopefully I can join the Nov thread in a better place. Need to invest in some cheapie pregnancy tests before then.

ETA: any chance anyone has heard of intense thirst being an early pregnancy sign?

Hello ladies,

Unfortunately AF arrived, so I'm another rollover.

Trying to find the positives - I get to attend a good friend's wedding next June that I would not have been able to travel for should I have gotten pregnant this month. It's only a small consolation, but it's important to be positive

My first month charting threw open some interesting observations... My cycle was a longer 29 days (only 2nd time it's been that long since I started tracking length almost 12 months ago). Per FF and increasing temperatures, I ovulated on the 14th day, which gives me a LP of 15 days. If this is in fact accurate, it means I ovulate earlier on my normal 27ish day cycle than I previously thought. Whether my LP will stay constant remains to be seen…

My temperatures are definitely biphasic – so this gives me comfort that I do in fact ovulate. However it’s stressing me that because my cycle length differs by about two days each month, predicting O is very difficult.

I am now looking forward to November. In terms of timing, this month would be the most perfect so far so I am sending out as many positive thoughts as I can muster!

Good luck to all the ladies still waiting for the rest of October!!

Well think I only ov'd yesterday which is later than I thought I would, still waiting for crosshairs though so won't be POAS till early nov. Probably good though as we are going watching wicked on the 31st and a BFN would have really put a downer on things. Not got much hope for this month though as we only managed to BD successfully 5,4 and 1 days before o due to a 'groin injury'! Next month he is doing warm up stretches haha.

Still quite a few of us due to test though so fingers crossed for all of you

@MrsCDH: I'm sorry but love your positive thinking and way to find the silver lining! You've inspired me to do the same

@Lugrey508: I would say to wait till AF is due. But I am only saying that because I hate seeing BFN.

@Mrs. Confetti: fwiw, I am on cd37, got my bfp on cd 32, and have been drinking water like someone who's been stranded in the desert. fx for you!

@Lugrey508: I am so impressed with your self control. I've told myself that I'll stay away from dr. Google and I usually make it a couple of hours

Not sure I have good advice about when to test. Maybe wait until Saturday or Sunday so your aunt's passing and your bfp each have their own day?

@CakeLady: It has not been easy! Im distracting myself with end of the year evals for my job and pinterest xmas card ideas ! I just got a cricut so I've been experimenting.

I think maybe Saturday morning will be the best time for me to test...It's a good idea to try to keep my spirits up on Friday. Thanks for the advice

@Mrs. Confetti: Are your cycles super long? Thirst is definitely an early pregnancy sign. But honestly, I think early pregnancy signs are sooo confusing. Because its pretty much the same signs for both pregnancy and AF. With LO, the only prepregnancy sign I had was extreme exhaustion. We were not trying, I didn't track my cycles, so I didn't even realize I was late until a friend pointed out to me that I could possibly be pregnant. I think later on, around 6 - 8 weeks the pregnancy symptoms kicked in, sore boobs, etc.

I am going to drive myself crazy by this time next week. I am pretty sure I am imagining symptoms, because they only last a few minutes then go away and come back again later. This is going to be a long week...

@littlek: Yea. I keep telling myself 1 week down 1 week to go...

@littlek: I wish it was instantaneous like that. That would help us impatient people!

@Littlebit: I've found investing my time in improving myself has been a great distraction these past few months. I'm currently studying for a professional certification; if I can't make a baby, well, I may as well improve my future some how! Don't get me wrong, I still have my sad, dramatic, "WHY ME" days. But they are fewer and more far between, now.
