little victories.

so much good news this week from all of you lovely ladies.  it is WONDERFUL and inspiring!!!! 

i introduced myself a few weeks ago and since then have been having my first experiences with the CBEFM.  this morning, i received my first 'egg' (which i do think looks like an olive!).  i'm on CD18, so it's later than i would have expected, but here's a cheer for learning new things about our bodies.

i need to keep taking the folic acid for another 6 weeks before we can actively start TTC (because of my spina bifida), but you know...baby steps.  that little 'olive' made me smile.

in the meantime, i need a hobby to distract me from my daily POAS ritual and constantly worrying about things that may or may not happen.

Congratulations on your olive, that's great!! It's also good that you are using the CBEFM to know that you O a little later. Many women wouldn't keep trying up to CD18, thinking they already O'd around CD14. If you find something that helps with your distraction, let me know. I'm an obsessor myself.

YAY FOR THE OLIVE!!!  I still get giddy when I get that little egg!

I notice that a lot of women O late - I have been using the CBEFM and I get my egg on CD12.  Just seems early to me.  But it has been consistent for the 2 months that I have been using CBEFM. 

So my 2WW is actually longer the 2 weeks according to the CBEFM.

And I don't POAS until AF is late.  So far, that is.
