Ooooh! I want to join. I have not idea how to get my ff chart to show up in my siggy, but I O'd about five days ago and I think we timed it pretty well. We'll see! I usually don't get much longer than 10-11 days luteal phase so I suppose I'm almost half way to knowing!

This is our first month trying, too. The TWW is killer. I'm due for AF on the 19th or 20th...won't test until I miss....although I have a $store test burning a hole in the bathroom drawer.

Question--anyone ever experience a symptom of a burned tongue...without burning their tongue. I don't know if it's quite the "metal mouth" I've heard people talk about...more like you burned your tongue.

Can I join? I'm so happy, because I finally O'd this month, four months after our m/c in February. I had two cycles without O'ing, which made me nuts, I'm serious. Well, there was finally an EGGIE this month around the tenth, so of course I pounced on DH. Now waiting the two weeks.....and not expecting any miracles, since this is the first month of solid ovulation. I'm planning on testing around the 24th if AF has not shown up. Who else is testing around then?

We are trying for number five, our last baby I think. I cannot wait to be pregnant again!!!!

Good luck and baby dust everyone!!!

My temp rose a bit this morning - still not that high though, we'll see!
How's everyone else doing?

I'm sort of hovering here between the early and late June TWW. I've gotten a few negative test results and am 13DPO (14 according to my chart). My LP is generally 14-15 days. Today my temp came back up a little after dipping a couple days ago.

Anyone ever take an OPK to test for pregnancy? I was feeling really frustrated this morning. My sister made some dumb comments to me yesterday about how she's disappointed that I am not pregnant yet. Then I got a negative pregnancy test (though if I put my imagination cap on I might be able to see the faintest second line ever, especially if I bend the strip, angle it a certain way in the light and stand on my head ) So, anyway, I know that HCG is similar to LH and sometimes you can test for pregnancy with an OPK strip. Since I know what a positive OPK strip looks like, I said what the heck, might as well see if anything comes up on that. Lo and behold I got a pretty nice second line. It wouldn't be considered a positive if I was testing for LH surge, but it's strong enough that you don't even have to glance at it for a second to be able to see it. So, this has given me renewed hope that maybe there's something going on in there. : Thoughts?

Hmmm...I just got the tiniest spotting today at 5dpo. I only have three charts under my belt since AF started though so it's hard to say what is "normal" for me. My first time charting I started AF at 5 dpo. My second chart I had a 10 day luteal cycle. I'm hoping this doesn't mean AF is coming. 5 days too early for implantation spotting?

Hi all. Ok....I'm joining. I think I late O'd yesterday. I got a + OPK yesterday, but usually my temp goes down up then down then spikes for ovulation. So I hope I didn't On CD16 cause then our timing wasn't so great.

What do you all think? I wouldn't have gotten a + OPK yesterday if I had o'd already, RIGHT?

My chart looks a bit different than normal - but oh well. I went to the RE on Wednesday and we saw a great big folicle ready to drop. We didn't do any interventions this month although I will go for progesterone testing twice this week - just to see. He also wanted us to try BDing only a few times rather than 6-7 days in a row which is what we had been doing.

If nothing happens this month I' think I might try clomid next month.

My acupuncturist put me on a strict diet of no sugar, white flour, wheat or dear - so I'm struggling with that - but I really want this to be the month!!!

Anyway, I think I plan on testing on June 29 (14dpo). For now.



So

Your chart is looking sooooo good! And the OPK is promising - keep us posted!!!

i am trying not to obsess over symptoms, but does my chart look triphasic? I probably need more temps to determine but i think it looks pretty good. That last 2 days i have been cramping like AF is here, but it is to soon for that

Did anyone ever ovulate late, like around day 23 of their cycle, and then get their period on like day 28 or 30? Because I can swear that I just O'd on June 10th and now, I'm getting all crampy like I always do before AF. How in the world can I ovulate and then get AF five days later?? I'm going psycho with these crazy, messed up cycles, I really am. Everything was always SO EASY and SO REGULAR, and then after the m/c in February, my cycles are a total disaster. Total. Is this normal? How long until my body gets back to normal?

I want to join! I O'd on the 11th (for the first time since stopping birth control. Yay!) and will probably test on the 19th, which I'm sure is way too early, but I have a bunch of cheap-o internet tests, so what the heck?

I O'd on the 23rd day this month...and that's kind of late even for me. Normally I think I"d be more around 19th or something. And now, I had spotting yesterday 5 dpo. And a little more today. I was hoping for implantation spotting, but this is day two of it. Probably more likely to turn into a full blown AF. Granted, we were traveling and moving so this cycle might have gotten messed up, but I've always had strange cycles. I thought they were getting better so I'm kind of bummed at such a short luteal phase.

I'd love to join too. Just had an unmedicated IUI on Friday (the 13th...heh) and try to hold out to test until the 27th. Not likely, though!

I'm feeling crampy, bloated, and constipated (sorry if TMI.) Starting to get that tingly feeling in my cha-chas.

These symptoms are probably all in my head, but, you know.

Chart is in my sig.

GL to all!

Add me too!

I am not at ALL feeling like it happened this month (although this is how it was with my son, too)-- but if AF doesn't show up on time, and I'm not usually late, I will be testing on June 23rd

Good Luck to all

Ooops. I'm changing my test date to June 27th. I think I o'd a day earlier than I thought. Thanks!

Any thoughts on these (possibly psychosomatic) symptoms?

3 dpo - bacterial infection (treated with boric acid, now gone)
6 dpo - pressure in lower abdomen - wearing a seatbelt while driving was bothersome.
7 dpo - wave of nausea @ dinner (went away when I forced myself to eat)
8 dpo to present - major increase in belching (sorry - yuk), some heartburn, mild headaches
10 dpo - waves of nausea and exhaustion (wanted to sit down on the bedroom floor and go to sleep instead of folding the laundry on the bed)

I've also been having fleeting cramps and crazy dreams and restless sleep.

No sore bbs, no vomiting....

hey everyone! Sounds like there are a lot of promising TWWs around here! I just started my TWW, I o-ed today!

I'm testing on the 30th if AF doesn't arrive by then.

Good luck everyone!!!

You can add me too. I'm 10DPO....the last few days before I test are going to kill me.

My cycles are usually 28-29 days long; often shorter, never longer. I'm testing 6/20 if AF doesn't show before then.

Hi everyone, sorry I've been MIA! Sunday was Father's Day over here and we were brunching with the dads & then we took some of the little ones to see Lazytown. That in itself would have been OK, but then some eejit drove into me and DD on our way home - thankfully we're both OK & not too much damage to our car. First time I've ever been in an accident so a bit shaken by it & of course it would have to be in the 2WW!
I did try to update yesterday, but then MDC seemed to be having problems!

Anyway, think all updated now, if I've missed someone/something, let me know.

Obsessing away over here, my temp went down a little yesterday which was kinda true to how it would start to slowly decrease as I get near to AF, but then it went back up this monring - : it means something - although prob not!
