TTC After a Loss

**Weekend Crazy Train**

Sorry it's a little late! I was at the RE's this morning.

This is a thread posted daily for any of us who need to get out our frustrations about waiting to O, the 2WW, or vent about our cycles. If you find yourself checking FF obsessively, MF is getting the best of you, or you just want to pee on all things, let it out here!

In order for the conductors to be better able to help you, please make sure you either have a FF chart link in your sig, or make sure you post a link. Don't chart? You should consider it, not only will it give you a lot more insight to your cycles, but conductors will be able to answer a lot of your questions just by looking at your chart! To learn more about charting, check out the charting course that FF offers:https://www.fertilityfriend.com/courses/

The CT is not the place to post a BFP. If you have a "squinter" or if you have a line that appeared after the time frame, please do not post about it here. Take a step back from the board, test again with FMU, and good luck!

  • Crazy level from 1-10:9

    CD/DPO: 24

    Can I just _O already_____ already?!:

    Signs/Symptoms: confusing me a lot

    Explain your Crazy here:

    I don't know WTAF my body is doing. I bought the CVS OPK since I was running out of wondfos and have gotten a + every day since I bought them (4 days in a row) so today I used my last wondo on the same pee.  Dark + on the CVS and a definite - on the wondfo.  No fertile CM or CP anymore but my temp is still low. I wonder if I need a new thermometer.  I have been using this one since december.
    Sex is still a bit of a challenge due to H's surgery so we can't just keep having all the sex in case.  Blah, so frustrating.

  • Crazy level from 1-10: 6

    CD/DPO: CD 19/DPO 5

    Can I just ______ already?!: Pee on all the things??

    Signs/Symptoms: Nothing

    Explain your Crazy here:

    This is an extra crazy TWW for me because I feel really good about our timing.  Since the m/c I have only had EWCM twice - once two cycles ago (very little) and this cycle (more than last time, but still not a whole lot) I just felt really good this whole FW and I'm anxious to see if all our hard work paid off ;)

  • @tlc35, I've never used the CVS OPKs, but if you've gotten 4 days of positives and the wondfos were negative, I'd question the CVS ones. Hopefully your body starts to make a little more sense soon!

    @LDubHawksFan, pretty charts are such a MF. I've had cycles where I've gotten my hopes up too. FX for you!

    @CreechMommy, Good luck staying away from those pee sticks for another week or so, and FX for this cycle!

  • Crazy level from 1-10: 7

    CD/DPO: 23/7

    Can I just ______ already?!: pee on a stick

    Signs/Symptoms: uhh, not much? Increased urination is about it

    Explain your Crazy here: I dunno why, but I feel like I'm out this cycle, even though we had really good timing. Maybe it's a good thing because I've been optimistic the last cycles? I dunno, I just want to POAS and know for sure. Was even whining about it to my bff who has no idea what I'm talking about lol

  • @tlc35, Never tried the CVS brand OPKs, but my Target band ones seem to be working well. Hopefully your cycle works its self out soon.

    @LDubHawksFan, Fingers Crossed your temps stay high!

    @CreechMommy, I'm sitting pretty at 5DPO according to FF. Try and hold off on peeing on everything, but I don't blame you if you cave. I'm aiming for Wednesday!

    medic7979 I'm sorry to hear about you BFN. ((hugs)) Hopefully you get out of limbo soon.

    Crazy level from 1-10: I'm going to hold steady at a 7.

    CD/DPO: 20/5

    Can I just ______ already?!: Can I just know!

    Signs/Symptoms: Nothing. It's still to early, but my cat "The Illusive One" keeps following me EVERYWHERE! You're freaking me out cat!

    Explain your Crazy here: As I've stated in the past, my temps for my FW are shot this month. Between getting sick and drinking WAY too much last Friday I have no idea what's going on. FF gave me cross hairs for Monday, but I'm pretty confident that I O'd on Saturday night. Either way I am happy with our timing. I just like pretty charts! Damn you OCD!

  • @uromys I usually cave early haha.  This time I have no leftover tests at home so the only way I can get my hands on one is to go to the store.  I'm trying to resist the urge!!! I haven't even given myself a "goal day" to reach.  This time I am *trying* to take it one day at a time.  So hard to do!!

    Trying to distract myself from the fact that today (right now actually) is my SILs gender reveal party.   So I go searching the web for mindless games to distract me and - wouldn't you know it - the ad on the side of the page is for ClearBlue Digital pregnancy tests.  :|

  • @CreechMommy‌ - I tried to explain to my (much younger) coworker the addiction that is peeing on sticks, and the appeal of multi pack hpts. She said to me "idk, it just sounds masochistic to me"

  • @heartbot I usually use the cheapies from amazon and they work great but I have no way of getting them quickly since I ran out before I O'd this cycle.  I need something I can get tomorrow.

  • Hiya @BethKate2‌ ! :-h how was your trigger shot? I have my FXd for you and all the other ladies aboard the CT this weekend!

    Crazy level from 1-10: 9

    CD/DPO: 10DPO

    Can I just ______ already?!: get an answer

    Signs/Symptoms: This is the second time in the last 3 days I have been awake since 4 am. No clue why. Just wiiiide freaking awake at 4. Yesterday I took a 2 hour nap. My "symptoms" don't seem very pronounced (bit of a backache, but not much else). I'm tired and irritable, and breaking out, but what else is new before AF. Still really thirsty.

    Explain your Crazy here: BFN this morning at 10DPO. I know it's early but I'm expecting AF tomorrow. My temps are still up, so I guess there's that. My past BFPs have started at 11dpo, so I feel a little disappointed to see nothing today. And now there is a lot riding on tomorrow. I'm really worried my temp will be down. I'm worried the test will be negative. I had a lot of hope for this cycle :| [-O<

  • @heartbot, I'd definitely recommend getting a BBT that reads to the hundreths next cycle. Even though your temp has been the "same" for the last few day, it's possible there was some variation (like 97.71, 97.78). I wouldn't necessarily say for sure that you didn't ovulate. You may just have to keep watching your temps over the next few days.

  • Okay, more crazy - yesterday I was making a major dent on some leftover pickled beets at work. After the sixth or seventh, I stipped and said out loud "why am I even eating these? I don't like beets!"
    I have also half convinced myself that I'm experiencing leukorrhea (sp?).
    Someone, get me something to pee on stat >.<

  • Crazy level from 1-10: 5 ask me again in a week and I'll probably be off the charts

    CD/DPO: CD 20 not tracking anything too much right now as this is the first cycle that we actually considered trying

    Can I just ______ already?!: pee on a stick! I'm trying to save myself the disappointment of testing too soon but I have very little self control.

    Signs/Symptoms: I've been nauseous but so has everyone else in my house/work/school.

    Explain your Crazy here: not going too crazy yet. I think DH is more crazy than me, he keeps asking if it's too early to test.
