ugh. Bump ate my LONG post. And I'm too tired to do it again.
To summarize: My chart is going crazy and there's literally no reason for it. Just strange. Got progesterone levels from yesterday back and the doc says I did ovulate (duh... I knew that already). Ultrasound next Tuesday to see what's going on in there.

@babymish So glad I'm not alone in the obsessive chart staring! Let me know if yours ever magically shows you the path to BFP. Also, I can't say I'm completely BSC-free today (given the chart staring) but I think I have finally convinced myself that any "symptoms" before possible implantation time mean absolutely nothing. So, have no fear, I fully expect the BSC to take over in the next day or two.
CD/DPO: 19/4 (not temping, so this is based on previous charts & OPKs)
Timing: -1,-2,-4
R/R/CS: Being disconnected during the last TWW and this WTO seemed to really help. I was unbelievably busy with school and working on our home, so it all worked out. I haven't temped, but know my typical post O temps. Part of me wants to start temping again during the TWW, but I'm sure that will only add to the crazy I'm trying to avoid.
@babymishI was scrolling through TB with my toddler on my lap. She saw your signature and got really excited and said "BABY!" and totally ignored the creepy bunny hahaha

@kfair001 - thanks! i figure humor is really the best way to go with SS madness. And i'm sorry that you're in so much pain! hang in there.
@virginiaham - glad you're still here! one day at a time!
@kellybean1988 - thanks so much! yeah, the red lipstick (or something obviously feminine) feels totally necessary to me with my short hair. and glad to know that we're all going BSC together! LOL And omg those fortune cookies!!! FX it doesn't mean back to WTO this cycle though!
@sparty18 - I saw the martian landing, didn't you? and i definitely relate to picking items that go casual or dressy. love things that I can wear at work and also in my "real" life. haha.
@BerkeBaby - aww I'm so sorry you had a tough night last night!!! Your DH sounds super sweet though. He's a keeper!
@Sandwichlover - aww thanks so much! glad to know i'm not the only one who's taken the daring short hair step. But i love it!
@QueenSunscreen - yay for another red lipstick wearer! It seems we share a number of other similar clothing philosophies too. Stretch in pants is an absolute MUST and this ("Basically, I dress for work with the aim of feeling like I'm in pajamas while looking professional.") Is something I've literally said MANY times!! Amazing.
@Aurora1973 - yay (almost) cycle buddy!! glad that you were able to hold off on POAS today! 8 DPO is definitely super tough. I can totally relate to the dramatic swings in feeling "in" and "out". Hang on just a little longer!
@schwee25 - glad to know i won't be testing alone on Friday. FX for you too!
@babymish - welcome back! and thanks for making me feel like googling about my papercut tongue wasn't completely insane!

In super late for a post, but today was a bit crazy! just coming today to say congrats @Kristen627 I might spend some time outside waiting for some bird poop!
@atcwag Your temp is stil way up - FX for testing!!
Thanks. I started feeling yucky and bloated this evening which is often a AF symptom for me, so my high hopes are waning a little bit tonight. I have been saying I was gonna wait until 14DPO, but I'm pretty much resigned to temping tomorrow depending on what my temp looks like. If it's still high, I may temp. If it plummetes, I'll maybe wait. Ugh.
Random question......Does anyone here use the Glow app? All of the previous discussion on it are from several years ago, and I'm sure the app has changed some since then. I just see that a lot of people use fertility friend. What is that you guys like better than one or the other? I currently use Glow, the whole interface just seemed easier to navigate and input data when I looked at them in the app store. I would totally be down for switching if there was something a lot better with Fertility Friend. Thanks ladies!

Fertility Friend for the science, Glow for the drama.

Due with #2 5/2/19 after HIO once in my FW, because apparently that's how life works now. Team Blue!
@mrsmcandrews I've tried them all abs deleted everything but FF.
The other apps are more like "diaries" to log your information.....but they can't actually do anything with that info and just use standard framework, including glow.
FF can actually "think" with your data and make predictions.
Hey lovelies, I feel like I have been a real flake on here this week and not given a lot back. It's been such a busy hectic week! Anyhoo I finally just finished packing and wanted to check in with you all.
@hupp0013 I am exactly the same! PJ's are on within the first few minutes of arriving home...no matter what time of day it is
@zrain sorry for the BFN, and sorry about the jet lag, it sucks especially with those shifts! Hope your body catches up with itself soon.
@Songbirdinthecity I too have had an attack of the blemishes. The papercut tongue is a new one on me but hey if google says its a good sign I'd go with that too
@jedially85 sorry for the BFN, there is still time - good looking holding off for a couple of days, I know its tough.
@sandwichlover Sorry for the spotting, is your LP usually 10 days ish? Hopefully it doesnt mean CD1.
@britters314 Sorry for the temp drop, I didnt know FF could change your cover line going on temps after O, thats a new one on me. Very cool that you make your own clothes! I would LOVE to be able to do that.
@juliebeannn Glad you are getting over your cold and yay for high temps! I always think charts that dont look like previous charts are a good thing, especially if previous charts werent KU charts
Thanks so much @kfair001 its good to be back I too think MrsDho's BFP gave me false hope - no idea why I would think that but I was doing just fine, then the BSC emerged today and I'm 3dpo
@kellybean1988 sorry you are having such a confusing cycle, I have studied your chart and it's a tricky one. Going by temps I can see why FF might say CD13, but your CM says different. I cant remember if you mentioned it already but were you using OPK's too?
@virginiaham FX for tomorrow!!!! I am seriously impressed with your willpower to not test early - I'll be keeping an eye out for your update!
@beff12 It definitley is still possible to turn a test after 12dpo - FX for you
@Sparty18 Thanks!! Very happy to be back and so much sooner than I had thought. I am envious of your BSC free days, something went wrong with mine and they didnt happen this month. What is it with chart staring?? I do it too and I have no idea why. Its like I think if I look long enough the remainder of my TWW temps will magically appear showing me the path to either BFP or AF.
Congratulations! @Kristen627 H&H 9 months to you! - I need me some bird poop!
@atcwag Your temp is stil way up - FX for testing!!
@berkebaby sorry again for the sucky feels (((hugs)))
@juliehollz13 sorry you didnt get the results you wanted, I guess at least you know and they have put measures in place to fix it.
@ladystinson sorry for the fever and the O day confusion. I hope you start to feel better soon and that O was when you hope it was.
@20T what is with the bloat? Im sorry you have this too, I actually had trousers on at work yesterday that were not buttoned up - it was just too uncomfortable! I wore them with a long shirt so that (hopefully) you couldnt tell - needs must.
@mtvkv5 sorry for the BFN, although as you say, it is still early - FX for you!
@adele85 sorry you were feeling sad yesterday too and sorry for the BFN at 10dpo - its still early for you FX.
@shwee25 hopefully those symptoms are the good kind!! Good luck for Friday! Also I am the same with the instant bra removal - I wish so much we could get away with no bra's all the time!
@totororyinlove Are you temping to confirm O? If you have your dates correct then CD24 would have been 3dpo which would be way to early for testing. If you did ovulate later than usual this month then your overall cycle will be longer than 31 days. Your LP doesnt shorten if you O late - it will be the same length as usual.
@mrsBinPA I feel your pain with the testing tormet - I dont know whats worse, waiting for AF or seeing BFN. I thnk I have reached the stage were BFN's suck more but not enough to refrain from testing??!!
Yeah, I've been temping but FF didn't show the coverlines on my chart until around 6 or 7DPO (I can't remember which day?) for some reason, so I could only go off of my previous cycle lengths and test from there. I just got my BBT in the mail so I'm not really trusting this cycle's information.
