Our Group

This thread was set up for those of us who have really long cycles. No matter what the reason of your long cycles you are welcome here. It is hard to find other ladies that love to have the 2WW because it took them 3 months to get there. We are here to offer support and to listen to all your ranting. Please join our group and together we can get through the TTC without Oing together. If you would like to join just post Join Please in your title and add any information you would like next to your name like your chart or how many little ones you have. I hope we become a close family here.

Yeah, I already checked what my EDD would be, and assuming I O on CD25 like last cycle, the day is the 10th of May. That's one day before my due date was with my son. I'm taking it as a sign.

I just really hope it doesn't take 12m like it did last time. I really don't want our kids more than around 3 years apart. If the world was my imagination, I would have #2 between this coming April and October.

My son was due on the 12th of May, but born on the last day of April. He is not a baby anymore either. He's running around and getting into all kinds of trouble.

I wanted the children close in age, like even under 2 years, but apparently I don't get pregnant if my husband simply looks at me. So at this point, it's looking like exactly 2 years (if I get pregnant this cycle) at the earliest. Maybe we'll both get pregnant this cycle.

That would be awesome if we all got BFP's in AUGUST. I know it won't happen but here is hope. Maybe atleast one of us will get one.

for all of us!


Soooooo, I had a little bit of EWCM just now on CD10. That never happens (usually just weeks of watery). Maybe it's the cranberry juice. Maybe I will actually ovulate on a normal schedule this cycle. Maybe both.

[ZoeJane'sMommy]

OOOOHHHH sweet bea that would be GREAT!! Keeping my fingers crossed.

Oops-posted this in the July thread first

Welcome kriket!

ItsUnfertility- exciting! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

My temps have still been a little up, but today it dropped significantly. FF kept my crosshairs for now, but I am trying not to get too excited over it! Here's my chart:http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2b5a16

[sammypants]

Exciting doings ladies! Keep us all posted and maybe these positive things will be contagious!

I'm still holding...no signs of note.

Hi... I'm a 30-40 day cycler... who's going onto CD 46 (!) on my first TTC cycle... it's very frustrating... I'm sure I'm not preg. At least I'm 99% sure - I've burned LOTS of preg tests. I'm thinking AF is around the corner but the wait is killing me right now.

I'm going to start charting and doing OPK's next month to figure out when exactly I'm ovulating. Good luck to you all!

[ZoeJane'sMommy]

Hi annaconda. So you usually have normal cycles? But this time its going longer? Man that sounds frustrating. Let us know if we can do anything for you. We are here for you.

[annaconda]

Thanks ZJM!

I was just checking back a bit... i've had a 39 cycler, a 38 day cycler... and here I am on day 46. This is all improvement from when I first went off the pill. I've been irregular for years.

So I'm all set up on FF and am just waiting for my BBTherm to arrive, have my OPK internet cheapies... and am ready to do some serious BDing this month. I can't wait to chart to see what hte heck is really going on.

I feel mittleschmertz but it's been a long time from that to period so I'm sure it's not exactly when I ovulate. It's been 22 days, then 18 days, and now.... it's been 30 days since I felt the mittleschmertz pains this time!

So I'm new to the whole TTC thing, so I will be charting and doing all this great stuff AS SOON AS AF COMES!! Please!!??

[jeminijad]

It seems some don't know there is a new thread! July keeps getting bumped up while this one slides down the page.

I had a glob of EWCM today- CD20- but the OPK was negative.

Actually, I am so irritated at my DH today that I don't know if I would BD anyway. I won't junk up our thread with it, but I swear men are at least 47% less intelligent than women!!

Annaconda, I know what you mean about wanting AF, unlike other ladies who dread it. At least its proof something is going on down there!

[lilmom]

Oh, I do hope we get at least one BFP this month! That would be so exciting & inspiring!

Hugs, Annaconda I hear you on the irregular cycles and just wishing AF would come so you would know what is going on.

ItsUnfertility Still hoping for you! Your chart was looking great before the drop..could it be an implantation dip?! Ooooo here's to hoping.

I have nothing to report. Still hoping for O to come one of these days.

[ZoeJane'sMommy]

I agree about the just wanting AF to get here. It seems like we are always happy to see her. Maybe we should have named this thread We love AF and the 2WW so quit whinning. sorry I am just kidding I know TTC is hard for everyone with or without normal cycles.

[sammypants]

I know what you mean ZoeJane'sMommy, I'd like to get either AF or a BFP lol! Day 53 and nothing. And, of course, I have another question: how do you ladies decide when it's time to test? This is my longest cycle yet but I don't feel pregnant (well, at least what I imagine it feels like).

[ItsUnfertility]

I would be the slow one that kept posting over at the July thread, oops

Lilmom, boy would I be pumped if this drop was ID! Still keeping my fingers crossed over here. We'll see what tomorrow's temp says.

ZoeJanesMommy- LOVE the suggested title for our group haha! the 2WW is my best friend (well, maybe more like frenemy ) I was so shocked on Sunday when FF gave me cross hairs AND put me at 7DPO. All I could think was if this is right, I'm halfway through the 2WW and didn't even realize it!

Annaconda- just wait til you get all your supplies, tracking and temping become as essential as breathing! It is all so helpful and so informative. Can't wait to hear your progress!

And jeminijad- I totally get you on the male species and their lowered intelligence Hopefully whatever went down gets apologized for with chocolate and make-up BDing

I guess it depend how many DPO you are. I personally will probably start testing like 5dpo just because I am an obsessive POAS'er. But you should probably wait until atleast 10dpo and if you have awesome will power wait until 14dpo because you will have a better chance of not getting a false negative. Now you can still get a false negative at 14dpo but that is just the standard.

I love it "Frienemy" that is my new favorite term. Hope you don't mind but I am going to steal it.

Can I join?

Hi ladies,
My name is Karen and I've been on a TTC break (just not TTA) for a few months but we are back to it. I have always had irregular cycles and a long history of infertility. I have a 14 yr old boy and my 2nd miracle ( after several years of TTC off & on), a little girl that just turned 1 on July 7th.
We were hoping to have another little one asap and have not tried to prevent at all. My cycles are anywhere from 30-100days and I only ovulate about 3-5 cycles per year, so it's a frustrating road to be sure. Hoping to find some friends on this journey

The details:
TXmom2 (Karen)
37 yrs old (wow...I feel old now)
TTC #3

oh yeah, I'm currently on CD4 after a 53day cycle

Haha, glad you like it. It's yours to use (and I won't even ask for royalties)

ZJM, would you add my chart next to my name at the top of our page? Here's the link: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2f5393


Thanks!

[Lauren2010]

Welcome TxMom2! Hope this is the cycle for you!

[lilmom]

Welcome TxMom2!!!

I'm also in Texas. Where are you at? Probably nowhere close to me, because I'm in Abilene right now, but I thought it couldn't hurt to check. Hopefully we will be moving to Austin in the near future and I will be able to get better fertility help there. There are no RE's here. Ugh.

And you're not old. I'm about to be 35 in a few weeks though, and I feel that way often myself...but then I remember that my grandmother was having babies into her 40's, and it can happen. Who knows, this might be your cycle!!!

Also, did we talk before on another thread? If so, I apologize. I forget after a while who is who.
