Welcome Smile


This is a revolving buddy group for women in the same part of their cycles, to compare notes, and symptoms. We also have a "waiting to o" buddy group for members who are still waiting on ovulation. Every so often, a moderator will start a new thread for you.  Good Luck!

Hi ladies! I am currently 6 dpo on my second cycle of charting. We kinda missed the Nest last month due to the holidays, so my fingers and toes are crossed for this cycle.

Good luck everyone!

Hello! I'm 4 dpo. Our timing was okay-not as great as I would have liked but DH struggled a bit this cycle. We did get it in two days before o and then on o day, so we'll see. I'm happy to be here already this time, last cycle I didn't ovulate until cd 23, so clomid definitely helped a bit more than soy.

Good luck everyone!

Hey everyone,

MakinMiracles - crossing fingers for you, hope this is your month!

abrakadabra - hoping this is the month for you too, Good luck!!

AngieB - 2 days before and on O is still a good chance, all you need is one of his little guys, don't give up hope yet! Glad that Clomid worked to bring your O sooner, Fingers crossed for you as well!

AFM - Well here I am at 11 dpo - YAY!! My longest charted prior to my 2nd lo was 10dpo, and last month was 7dpo. This month I tried a few new things and it looks like they have helped for at least this far :) Here is hoping! :D

I may have had a BFP this morning. Not sure. It's a Target test, so it could be an evap. I have some FRERs in the house to take later.

I posted it over on the Fertility Tests section. (Link's not showing up. Click on Fertility tests for the link.)

New to the site, new to beta, new to the group. We just started "officially" TTC last month. I'm at 7DPO today with just a few things that could be called "symptoms" since I don't really ever get many noticable PMS symptoms between O and AF. I'm giving it a few more days and then we'll see. My LP is usually only just about 11 days, but still--4 more seems like forever to wait!

Good luck to everyone!

Hi everyone!  I am 10DPO today, and trying to wait to test until at least 12DPO, which is right around my normal LP!  We just happened to time everything just right....my cycles are so wonky, I never know when Nest is gonna happen, but if  you glance at my cycle 4, we seemed to get things just about right (I never mention "o" to DH....too stressful for him Stick out tongue)....here's hoping for BFPs for ALL of us!!  Flowers

Thanks for the link, Abra!

I'm new to charting (if AF arrives, it'll complete my first FULL cycle). I'm about 6dpo and anxious, lol. We just started trying around Christmas. I'm having some weird temping issues because I'm currently dealing with bronchitis and can't get my waking times back to normal, lol, but everything's staying above the CL, so that's good, right?

Good luck everyone!! 

I am 5 dpo and TTC for the second month though I have been charting since I went off the pill last June. The 2ww definitely sucks!! 

I think our timing was pretty good but my temps haven't been quite as defined as usual -- got some higher temps before ovulation and some lower temps afterwards. I work for myself which means that I get up every day at a different time. How much of an effect does this have? 

Hoping for the best and looking for signs. Do I have to wait until 12 dpo to test?

I'm over here now.  I'm currently 4dpo like others I see.  Not sure if we timed it right as we missed O day but got the three days before O.  Hopefully that's enough.  I'm on progesterone suppositories this time so I'm hoping it helps

Well, ladies, another test seems to have confirmed it. The only things we did different this time: actually managed to Baby Dance on O morning and the two previous evenings, and I ate smoothies made with pineapple core 3-5DPO (that used up the whole core). I don't know if the pineapple made any difference, but something worked! It took us 9 cycles with temping last time, only 3 this time.

 

Oh, and I seem to only be fertile in January. Last time my cycle started on 1/10, EDD 10/17. This time 1/8, EDD 10/16 ish. Hopefully I'll get closer to the mark this time.

ttcmama- Congrats on making it to 11 dpo. I'm sorry about the spotting though. :( Good luck next month!

Congrats Kris! What a way to start off February!

Welcome Venessa and good luck!

Fitmama- Good luck holding out on testing. I'm going to *try* to hold out too, but I've got a long way to go so we'll see how far I make it. (Last cycle I was testing at 7 dpo.)

Isabelle- Welcome! Above coverline is good indeed. :)

Lovebug- 3 days before O is really good, it's more important to get before o than actual o day because it's better for the sperm to be there already waiting for the egg than it is to try to catch it. Good luck!

Kayakgirl- You don't *have* to wait until 12 dpo but your chances of getting a false negative are higher than a positive until 11.5 dpo according to countdowntopregnancy.com statistics.

Maddiesmom- Welcome! I am also TTC after a loss and it is tough indeed.

AFM- Just chillin'. At 4 dpo there isn't much to analyze or worry about just yet. I'm trying to enjoy this time between worrying about the next cycle or (hopefully) worrying about my next pregnancy. Easier said then done though!

Hello ladies. Im kinda new around here. I am currently 11 DPO so im still in this 2ww. I have all sorts of symptoms. Cant get my chart to load, but my fertility advisor for this software said i was triphasic, but i thought that was only when you temp went up? mine went down a bit. 2 tenths, but still above coverline. Im feeling nauseous, and sore and blah...i also spotted a tiny bit of dark brownish color stuff. They say that could be a sign. Does anyone else drive them selves nuts over analyzing every little symptom? But im hoping for a big Fingers Crossed BFP. good luck ladies. Baby Dust

Good luck to all!  Hoping you all get that BFP!

I am currently 11 DPO and am holding off testing till at least tomorrow or the next day....but my chart looks pretty good this month....so i'm hopeful!  I've been using FAM/charting for about 6 years (TTA) and this is cycle #2 TTC with baby #1.  Usually I have a 12 day LP so, if no AF by tomorrow, i'd say its time to POAS.

Again, good luck to everyone!

Thanks Angie!  That's what I was hoping to hear, I've been having trouble waking at my normal temp time since Sunday (I spent a few hours in the ER Saturday night/Sun AM and didn't go to bed until 4am Sunday, and haven't been able to get back on track yet, lol). I figured, like I said, that as long as they're still over the coverline, I've gotta be on the right track.
