We bd'd on CD16 and CD's 21 and 22. FF has my o date as CD19. Who knows!

Hey guess what?




I o'd!

[crysmomofthree]

Hello

That's exciting to see you o'd omm I had to tinker with the settings to get my chart to show crosshairs

Zak, I'm so sorry s


Eastkygal, I'm sorry you have a dr with crappy bedside manner, They can't tell by looking at you whether your pelvis is big enough or not, so try to push that thought out of your head s

[crysmomofthree]

I've just worked two twelve hour night shifts in a row, so I didn't get to temp the last two days, but I think I"m 10 dpo, I want to test, but I'm trying to hold off over the weekend,

[Shell]

Just found this thread, and I guess I belong here. DD is 22 months and still nursing strong... no AF yet. DH and I are "not preventing" but I seriously do not think I've got fertile ground. I haven't tested at all, but I just don't think I'm ovulating. But who knows...

I've done a couple of pregnancy tests just to check... but nothing brewing yet. I'd love to find out I was pregnant, but I'm terrified at the same time. I don't want to interupt my nursing relationship with DD. Not to mention that she is becoming quite "toddlerish" and I can't imagine how I would deal with two!

But what will be will be. Fingers crossed.

I HATE waiting and not knowing!

SO?! Did you do it??

[Lyss]

Hi,

I'm nursing my 10mo DD and trying again. It's going to be a LONG TIME since my cycles are totally out of whack. This month I had 3 days between O and AF. Last month it was 5.

I'm going to try to night-wean DD this month (I go back to work next month, and I'll bet she starts night nursing then too, but whatever), and maybe try some acupuncture to get my cycle going right.

Congrats to the BFPs, and I'm with the Kentucky lady that doctors can really be so frustrating.

But we want another baby!

I am at CD 4, with O usually between CD 20-22, and my whopping 3-5 day LP afterward.

Nice to meet you!

[bruisergirl]

PudnHead, thank you for asking! I was just about to test yesterday--when AF came. It's OK, my temp dropped yesterday, so I figured it was AF. And actually I'm glad that at least this very long cycle finally came to an end. "Tomorrow is another day!"

Aran, could you please put me back in waiting to O?

[Marlet]

My temp dropped this morning. Enough so that when I put it in FF it took away my crosshairs. So I deleted the temp. Actually I deleted it because my therm. was in the window sill last night and temps dropped to about 30. Since the tip is metal I figured it probably messed with it pretty good. I think tonight I'll move it beside my bed and try going from there. If it's low again in the morning then I'm going to figure I didn't o.

[SereneBabe]

getting closer to ovulating (whenever I read "o" or "o'd" I think orgasm, so I gotta spell the word out) so I'm checking this forum lots...

anyway, just saying "hello" to the rest of you nursing and ttc'ers. :-)

Hee hee, Shalena! Yeah, but nothing yet. I did look up the test I have and the lowest hgc it detects is 50 (crappy test!), so it could just be too early. Dh won't let me test again until Tuesday, which is when AF is due, so we'll see then. I haven't had any cramping and such that I usually get by now when AF is due, so I'm hopeful but trying to nto get my hopes up, if that makes sense.

[jillybeans]

I'm on cd 34. Took a test last tuesday, when af was due(if I o'd on time, never know) and it was -. But all this last week i've been feeling more and more nauseous in the evenings. Ugh. So I'm driving 30 min. to town to buy some tests and dip em in the fmu i saved.

Hopefully, i'll know one way or another what the heck is going on.

[jillybeans]

Big surprise. negative again. I'll start temping tomorrow. What do you guys know about vitex and nursing? Will it really help get my cycles going? What about epo and nursing? I took all this stuff pre-dd, but have no idea if it's safe or not now!

[Marlet]

Temp. went up this morning so I added in yesterdays and discarded it. I think it was just from being in the sill. I also changed my detector settings to FAM insteead of advanced. It bumped me from 4dpo to 5dpo so that's always nice. I've been having some crazy dreams lately....enough so my sister asked if I was pregnant.

I'll be thinking of you (and stalking you) until then!

Good luck Noah! I'm really hoping for you.

[crysmomofthree]

I'm dying here! I"m 13 dpo? my temps have been up again the last two days, I'm dying to buy a test but I was too lazy to drive all the way into town.... I have to go though because I need to know. A test at 14 dpo would be accurate right?

[aran]

I have been very busy lately and just tried to catch up with this thread and get everyone moved to where I think they belong. I PMed a few people with questions. If I missed you please let me know and I will add or move you or whatever I am supposed to do.

zak. I am sorry this wasn't your month for a sticky babe.

[Marlet]

I'm dying to test! Bad me, I went and searched FF's gallery for my test. There were women who a positive at 8DPO!!!! I'm 6 DPO today.......I doubt I am but that test is mocking me from my bathroom cabinet.

Hey aran...what test did you use!?

You can do vitex while nursing. I really reccomend it. Most say it takes 3 cycles to really do it's thing- but i took me very little time.
AND....I actually AM still prego. Can I be put back on the success list?
:

[aran]

omm - I use test strips from early-pregnancy-tests.com

Lizzo - I never took you off. I wouldn't take a person off the success stories list unless they specifically asked. I am still on the June success stories... I mean, I was sucessful in getting pg in June... it just didn't last. My opinion is that keeping my name on that list somehow helps acknowledge the little one I lost. I know others might feel differently though...
