@YogiRunner: I have heard that could be a symptom! I think if you really did O only a few days ago you probably wouldn't be having any symptoms, is there a chance you O'd earlier?

novbaby1112: Isn't it the most random symptom? I didn't know either until my dental hygienist brought it up. She said the hormones can make your gums bleed, and hurt for a whole day after you floss.
@mrskrb: Yeah I think I'm way too early to be symptom spotting at all, but this is so out of the blue and I actually had some nausea too, so a small part of me does wonder if I O'd early. It's unlikely though, as I had negative OPKs until the 20th and that was preceded by cramping and EWCM. Temps have been unreliable due to random wake-up times but I think they generally shifted late too. This longer cycle is clearly driving me nuts!

@Mrs. J: Thanks for the encouragement about a Nov EDD as a teacher!
@YogiRunner: That's so funny about your dentist's reaction! FX!

@Chaosmaven: Can you change my POAS date to 2/20, please? I'm waiting for bloodwork results to tell me if I O'd this month. I'm pretty sure I didn't, and even if I did, it was late. I don't want POAS until I know. I should know by then.

@Willow: that definitely a positive! congrats!! I bet you would see a very nice line on an FRER if your cheapie looks like that!

@NovBaby1112: Thanks! I'm only using OPKs (thinking about temping, but think it might just make me more crazy). I got an almost positive, and then had to go away for work for 3 days and forgot to take them with me. I assumed I O'd a day or two after my almost positive, but I'm kicking myself for not keeping testing when I got back. So, now I'm just waiting. I've had a few days of cramps, but still nothing. I just want AF to get here so I can start thinking about the next cycle.
@Willow: Congrats!!! That's absolutely positive!

Hey Ladies, I'm a day old to this site. Great to be with all of you who are also trying to get pregnant. My husband and I have been trying for almost two years now and have an appointment with a fertility specialist this afternoon. But we gave it the good old fashion try this cycle before introduced to a more advanced setting in regards to making a baby.
Cycle Day: 22
TTC Cycle #: 21
Ovulation and POAS dates: DPO #8
Baby #: 1
Your plan this month: So I've been doing ovulation kits, tracking my bbt and blood pressure and CM for months. I am also using an app to keep my dates straight. This time around I threw all that out the window (except for the app) and had a stress free go at it. I'm still a crazy person during this TWW because I still read everything that has to do with someone else's DPO day and symptoms.
I'm still early to take a test. ..the wait is killing me. I'm going to test Monday but my app says 6 more days. Painful!
Some things I've been feeling are:
Fatigue, burning cramps mostly on my right side, dry mouth and heightened sense of smell. I can smell what soap someone has used from a mile away. It's crazy.
Good luck, ladies! I hope you all get your BFP's soon!

@babies_please: Welcome and I love your username! Very cute
Don't worry, you are not the only crazy person who googles "symptom by DPO" for 12 days straight every cycle! The wait is so, so painful. We all feel your pain, and this is the perfect place to dump out all your questions, frustrations, hopes, etc. with zero judgment and lots of support.
Good luck with your RE appointment and looking forward to seeing you around HB

@babies_please: Um, not to be an enabler, but I got all of my BFPs by 8-9 dpo. Do you have cheapies? The wait is so frustrating!!

@Chaosmaven: Welp, Valentine's Day BFN. I waited the whole 14 days since my IUI on January 31, too. Sigh. I was so hopeful! No sign of Aunt Flo either (due yesterday) but I don't think there are too many FRER false negatives at 14dpo.
Good luck to everyone still in the February game!!

@Chaosmaven: is it too late to be added as a cheerleader? I'm stalking the POAS boards until we start trying in April/May!
Congrats to all the BFP's so far ladies! And baby dust to all the rest!

I finally got AF this weekend. I am so glad to be out of limbo and on to March.
Good luck to everyone testing this week!! We need some more BFPs.

Hey ladies. I'm sort of back this month. I got a positive OPK today on CD19. It's my first cycle since I weaned breastfeeding completely. So I'm hoping strongly to at least have a longer LP. According to my app, AF is due Feb. 26, but that might only be 9 dpo, so I will wait till that weekend to test, so on Feb. 28 or March 1 I will test. Fingers crossed that AF doesn't show before then. Even if I don't have a BFP, I want a normal length LP to give me hope now that we have weaned!
