Nursing Mamas TTC July - Page 10

Emthewife - I more (or less, this weekend it's definitely been less!) nightweaned my dd about two months ago and started on vitex and b6 almost a month ago now. I'm hoping something will start happening by September. I'd really like a summer baby as my others are all Autumn/winter babies and it gets expensive having so many birthdays so close to Christmas.

How is everyone doing??  Its quiet over here!

I am 8 DPO --

I am trying to wait until at least 14 DPO before testing.  My stomach has been feeling funny the past two days, but it may just be in my head.  I am trying not to over analyze...

Good luck Ava's Mama! Your chart looks great!

AFM, I think I may be nearing O!  I'm on CD 16 and had lots of EWCM and my cervix seems higher.  I'm really hoping to O soon, since my cycles have been 26 and 27 days, and my last LP was only 7 days.  Crossing my fingers for a +OPK today!

I had a positive OPK on Saturday and Sunday.  I thought I O'd yesterday, but I didn't have a very big temp shift today.  Here is my chart:  [url=http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/58ccc/]My Ovulation Chart[/url]

Any thoughts???

Just checking in since it's been a while.  I'm on CD12/13 (?) and still waiting to O. 

Hope everyone is doing alright. 

Ava's Mama--keep us posted. :)

Zoe - I am not a charting expert, but I bet you O'd on CD 14 and I bet FF will give you crosshairs soon!

[Niniel]

FF took my crosshairs away this morning, I was fully expecting it but still feel a bit disappointed. I'm probably not helping myself out by getting so stressed about the whole thing. 

I went for my second reflexology session yesterday. I meant to have a chat with the therapist but I fell asleep during the session (think all the stress was catching up on me!) 

I just have no idea where I'm at. I think I need to learn a little patience.

So... still waiting to o :(

[Ava's Mama]

I had some EWCM this morning and FF pushed my O date back a day so I am now 10 DPO (with dashed cross hairs).  Any thoughts?? [url=http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/32d812/]My Ovulation Chart[/url] 

[zoe77]

I hope so Ava's Mama!!  Temp is rising, but very slowly.  I have an accupuncture appt tonight and I started chinese herbs on Monday.

Quick question ladies - is it common to have longer cycles pp? Before my DD, my cycle averaged 25 days. Since my PPAF returned, my cycles have been 39, 26, and 27 days. I'm currently on CD 17 and still have negative OPKs. I think my LP was only 7 days last cycle. I'm trying to keep my hopes up for this cycle, but since I haven't Oed yet, I imagine my LP will be super short again.

Thanks for any thoughts

UPDATED!!
 

Ava's Mama - Your chart looks really good, I would guess O was on CD 12 or 13.  GOOD LUCK!!

Zoe - I agree with Ava's Mama, it looks like you O'd on CD 14, and FF should give you CH with tomorrow or the next day's temp (especially if you discard that high temp....but I don't know if you have any reason to, or if it is perfectly accurate.

SKJ - It is very common for cycles to be long and irregular when they first come back.  There are also many, many other things that effect cycle length like stress, breastfeeding, weight and diet.  If you are concerned about regulating your cycles, you should look in to some herbs.  I hear good things about Vitex, but there are others too, each with their own pros and cons.

August thread is coming soon!  Sorry for the delay, I've been feeling a little very icky.

My low temp on D7 is suspect (used a different thermometer than usual) but there was nothing out of the ordinary about the time I temped on D11.  Just random high temp I guess.  I could try discarding to see if it gives me CH :)
