Boy am I feeling really un-confident today. I went to get a hpg test and the lady asked if I were late, I said yes and she said that stress will also cause the peroid to not come ( thanks ) Do you think that you can cause yourself to not get your period? I do not have any stress none at all, only the ttc anticipation and that isn't stress!

I do not have any cramps, none what so ever. I feel my bladder all the time even when it isn't really full. I had to go 2 last night. I am thirsty all the time I can drink gallons especially in the afternoon. I am soooo sleepy. I have 0-sexdrive! My I can't reach my cervix ( never had that before )

By the way, that lady jinxed my test bfn for me on 13 dpo. Maybe it was because I went to the bathroom to much last night??: Maybe it is just to early for me, it was a bummer though!

So what do you think, can you will your period to stay away?? But you sure can't will your temps to stay up!:

[hazieluna]

Jezzy your chart is looking so perfect don't let anyone bring you down! I know I'm not the only one hoping to hear about twins soon!!!

take care and girl!

[Jezzy]

Thanks, that BFN really got me down. Other than being tired, sore nipples and being thirsty all the time, I feel nothing : I am afraid to test again tomorrow, I don't think that I will...

Quick charting question-

Sunday AM the dog woke me up at 4:40 AM. I temped before I took care of her, and it was 97.6. I went back to bed and woke up at 6:50 and it was 98... which should I put? I had the 98 at 6:50 before, and I just plugged in the other one to see what it would look like. Huh.

Not like it will affect the outcome, but for purposes of record keeping, WWYD?

Last night I dreamed I was 3dpo and peed on a stick and got a BFP. I was so excited but confused as to how it showed up so early. So I decided to take a picture and post it here so you guys could see it and my camera would not work. I was so frustrated and was changing settings trying to get it to take a picture of that beautiful BFP but it just wouldn't work. Overall it was a good dream because I was super happy to get the BFP.

Dreams are funny huh?

Have a good halloween eve,

Jezzy, your chart looks beautiful. Don't let those HPTs get you down. The high temps are what really matters.

Sorry Clara, I can't help you with that one,I hope that you are feeling better today!

Hi guys... Work has had me so busy that I haven't been here in so long. I've missed you guys.

Technically, I should be in "waiting to know", but it really feels like af is going to arrive any second, so you may as well leave me where I am. My temp went up, but I've been have all kinds of cramps. I am a lot more emotional than I normally get before af, but I'm also under a lot of stress. :

I'm really not sure what to expect, thanks to that funny temp rise, but I know I'll be holding my breath every time I go to the ladies room today. Most likely I'll be back to tell you I'm on cd1 soon. After all, we only were able to dtd once during my fertile time this cycle. :

[QueenOfThePride]

Just checking in... I'm about 8dpo. I have to estimate my O date, since I don't temp, I use my body signals (and I'm very regular). Anyway, can't wait for POASaturday, I'll be roughly 13dpo. Last night I dreamed I POAS and it was positive!

And tomorrow we close on our house! Is painting and cleaning this early in possible pg OK?

[greenegirl]

Hey, QueenofthePride, you are a cycle buddy with me and DoulaClara! I already POAS yesterday : and it was negative, of course.

[yogachick79]

Morning ladies. Christy1980, please add me to Waiting to O. CD 1 here

I am okay with starting a new cycle, this is only my 2nd PP and the first was so wacky. But my LP was only 5 days which is a bit frustruating. Hopefully it will be longer this time around.

[~MoonGypsy~]

Christy ~ Will you move me to "Waiting to Know"? Thanks!

I have a question about OPKs. This is my first month using them. So far my plan has been to hold it from about noon and test after I take a nap with Declan which is about 7pm. Is this holding it too long or testing too late? On my work days I get up about 4 am. Is there an ideal timeframe, like POA(OPK)S 8 hours after waking, or...?

So far all my tests have been negative. The first one I took had a really dark control line and a very faint second line. All of the rest have had very muted control lines - muted to the point where I wonder if they are duds.

[Christy1980]

Changes made to here!

Katie, are they internet OPK's? If so, you have to wait for them to dry before you get a result. Contact the company if you think they are duds and email them a picture of one or two of the suspected tests. As for when to take them, I usually wait til around 1 or 2 pm. I think i read somewhere that any time after noon, but BEFORE 10pm was a good window to test w/ OPK's.

that lady was only partly correct....stress can cause a delay in ovulation....but sence you can see by your chart you have already ovulated....:

i'm really expecting a BFP from you this poaSATURDAY your chart looks great.....as long as AF dosn't show up before then you're good as gold

[mamabearsoblessed]

well I'm at 5dpo and just hangin out.

Jezzy~ you're chart is amazing!!! FWIW dd was the only pg I didn't get a bfn before a bfp. I always seem to get bfn before the positive!!! Dont lose hope Mama~ we're all rooting for you!!!!!!

Punquin~ welcome back~ I gotta say you're chart looks great though and it only takes that 'one time durung fertile time'. :

[Sabo]

Jezzy: Everyone keeps talking about your chart. I had to take a look. I'm no expert at chart reading, but I'm getting better. From what I can see, that is a good looking chart. Good luck!

I'm at cd 8, still patiently waiting to O. Just wondering: I had a few drinks on both Thurs and Sat nights. The next mornings my temps were about 0.4 degrees higher than usual. Is that normally what happens, a few drinks makes the temps increase? TIA.

Question

So this morning when I went to the bathroom I looked down to see a huge string of EWCM hanging all the way to the toliet...that's probably TMI on any other board but I know you girls all know how exciting that is! lol. Anyways about 20 mins later I was taking my shower and checking cervical position and I didn't have any EWCM up there? And now when I wipe it's almost like I'm dry? Is that normal? I'm so excited about the EWCM but weirded out about not being able to find any just a few hours later.
