I'm on day 60, soooo......question?

My last (and only period since having DD) was mid July, which brings me to a whopping 60 day cycle now. You can only ovulate at one point during a cycle, so I'm guessing that I probably just havn't ovulated yet? Once I DO ovulate, I should get my period 2 weeks later right?... I mean I can't just have the egg hanging around in there forever with no period.

I do understand that there are cycles where people don't ovulate at all, but I'm holding out hope that having sex every day/every other day may still do some good this late in the game. I feel like charting would stress me out, and we're having sex often anyway so I figure it doesn't really matter when I ovulate... We wouldn't change anything anyway.

Hey, I recognize you from 9-12!  Congrats on TTC#2!

I agree that at this point in your cycle charting wouldn't provide any info.  You still have hope, so keep on getting busy!

Are you still BFing?  That may be the casue of your wacky cycle.  If not, you may want to try charting if/when AF fianlly DOES return just for one cycle to get a better idea of what's going on.

Good luck!

No I'm not BFing any more. I quit in June and got my first AF 3 weeks later. I AM about 10 lbs under my normal weight, but I don't think that's enough of a jump to cause problems. At 5' 6" and 115 I'm just barely borderline underweight.

If you are not charting you don't know if you have ovulated. With that being said, I would pick up a copy of TCOYF and sign up with fertility friend. 

Personally, I would call your doctor. They will most likely do a blood pregnancy test and give you Provera. I don't think I could wait much past 60 days to start a new cycle.

I agree with PPs about seeing your Dr; when I had a super-long cycle I waited until day 90 to see my Dr and get provera, and I kind of wished I had gone earlier.

However, I disagree that charting won't help you--you only need 3 days of pre-O temps for FF to give you CH, right?  So assuming you haven't O'd yet, then you could start taking temps right now and catch your O any day. Or same thing with OPKs if you don't want to temp.

 GL!

not the fun answer you're looking but is can take awhile to start ovulating again after BF, even if you have a "period". Some ovulate right away, some it take anywhere from 3 to 6 months.
