@arielle9510: not very recently. I went off BC in July and my cycles have just gotten longer instead of regulating. I haven't been temping bc I just don't want to yet, lol. I do get what I believe to be O signs, so for now that's enough for me.
@tomatobee: I hope the drugs help!!!

@sslm: I'm sorry about your long cycles. I hope things work out.
I think what makes this process so frustrating is that we have no control.

@mrskc: that's exactly what's bugging me! I hate having no control
So I don't want to jinx myself but I may be showing O signs... Some possible ewcm and some sore boobs! Please let this be it...

Thanks everyone! It really helps to have so much support
I'm not sure what's happening. When you girls get EWCM, does it last all day long or does it come and go?

@sslm: Personally, mine shows up for like an hour or so at a time...there are definitely days/cycles where I miss it if I'm not checking frequently enough. There are certain times its easier to notice, too.

@redsmarties: thanks, this makes me feel better.
I feel like I'm the only one updating, but here it goes anyways: I've had bits of what seems like ewcm for a few days, with most of it happening yesterday. My boobs are sore and I'm dry today. With that, do you guys think it's possible I O'd yesterday or is it wishful thinking?
It sucks bc I have no idea when to expect AF so no idea when to POAS!

@sslm: It definitely sounds like you may have O'ed yesterday. Although, this month, I've had EWCM/CM past my O day (which I tracked using OPK strips)... Based on that your O day may have been yesterday... I'd test 2 weeks from today.
Good luck to you!

I'm going crazy too. I haven't been temping or OPKing this month, and I'm having a tough time figuring out my body. After a year of TTC, you think I'd be better at this, but it seems like I''ve been gearing up to O for the last week and a half. Today is CD17 though, and I usually O CD18ish, so we'll see.

@mrsjyw: I hope I did. A cycle under 40 days would be amazing! I'm not getting my hopes up too high but I figure I'll POAS in 2.5 weeks if I don't get AF.
@redsmarties: I hope you O today!! Do you get any sure fire signs? TMI but my nipples get really sore and that's my biggest sign (boobs are sore now, just waiting for nipples and then I'll be confident in my O)
Man I can't believe what I share on the Internet... Lol

@sslm: It's so hard to really know, but I hope you did O!
I'm CD 19 and I don't think I've O'd. If it doesn't happen this month, I'm going to try temping. For the last week and a half, I've been feeling dull cramps. This week they've felt sharper. My CM has gotten more abundant and watery, but still not EWCM. I feel like it should be coming soon. I was really hoping for a shorter cycle this month.

I'm reviving this thread! Everyone seems to be commenting on the TWW threads but I like this one because everyone can be in one place.
I'm about 5dpo today. I went for my 24 day blood work yesterday, I might hear something in a couple of days or I might not. I stupidly didn't really ask my doctor!! Anyway, my boobs are still super sore, and I was nauseous on the bus this morning. The bus is gross though, so that's maybe unrelated.
How is everyone?

@sslm: Oooh, I hope those are signs of a BFP in your future!
I'm 6 DPO today and so far no real symptoms. I'm trying not to get my hopes up, though it's hard!!! Also, the TWW sucks.
cantaloupe / 6397 posts
@Adira: this is my first TWW and it sucks. I've been tracking my cycles since July though, so at least I know what's somewhat normal for me. So far nothing is really out of the ordinary except maybe the nausea but since that's only happened once I'm not banking on it being any kind of sign.
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@sslm: You were smart to start tracking your cycles early so you know what to expect. I just went off BC the beginning of this month, so I have nooooo idea what's normal for me. I vaguely remember from before BC (8 years ago) that my cycles were 32-35 days long, so I'm expecting something similar, but other than that, I have no idea. Fertility Friend has been so helpful though, so I know that I have ovulated!
I don't know how people stand the TWW. I feel like it's going by soooooo much slower than the first half of my cycle! I want it to be over so I can test!

I got my BFP on Saturday (and again Sunday) now I'm just waiting on my blood results from the office!!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@jessiejo17: Yay!!!! Congratulations!!!! That's awesome news!!!!
GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts
@Adira: Thank you!!! You were right about the false negatives, I'm glad I waited it out without getting too discouraged!!!
@SSLM: Thanks!!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@jessiejo17: Yay!!! I'm so glad it worked out! How many DPO were you when you got your BFP?
apricot / 458 posts
@sorrycharlie & @MamaMoose: So thrilled for you two. Congratulations all around!
GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts
@Adira: I still have no idea since I'm not positive when I Oed this month and wasn't really keeping track. I got my BFP 7 days past period. This was our first month TTC, so I wasn't realy tracking
GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts
@sylvie_b: Thank you!! Still in shock and wish the Doctor's office would call me so I have some medical proof not just 3 sticks
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@jessiejo17: I gotcha! Still soooooo exciting! I'm so happy for you!!!

@jessiejo17: Congrats!!! Happy and Healthy 9 mos. to you!
@sslm: thanks for reviving this one! there are too many other threads to keep track of. I'm 8 DPO and twiddling my thumbs. My only symptoms are sore abs like I did a thousand sit-ups and I had a temp dip yesterday and a big temp rise this morning....implantation dip hopefully!
GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts
Thank you everyone!!! I will keep everyone posted on the progress

@oliviaoblivia: ooooo! I hope this is it for you when are you going to test?
pineapple / 12793 posts
@sslm: I have a 15 day LP and won't POAS until AF is late, so I have ages to go before I test.
When are you testing?
cantaloupe / 6397 posts
@oliviaoblivia: I'm going to test on Saturday since I can't be sure when I ovulated and I'm supposed to go out for drinks. I'll only be 9dpo so I don't have high hopes!

@jessiejo17: Yay! Congrats!
@sslm: Definitely smart to have started charting your cycles that long ago. It's hard for me. I went off the pill in June and got pregnant. Lost it at the end of Aug. Accidentally got pregnant again 6 weeks after my D&C. Lost that one at the end of Oct. Then had a 38 day & 35 day cycle since then. I have no clue what's normal for me. Before I was on the pill, I thought I had a 28 day cycle. So frustrated with my body right now.
CD 23 for me, and I'm not sure if I've ovulated yet. I did have some EWCM this morning. Hopefully O is approaching soon. I'm so impatient.
Good luck ladies!
