CD1 cycle#9

KristieM1985

After a crazy cycle #8 screwing with my head and ending up being a week longer than my normal cycle (of course the this would happen the first cycle that I didn't chart), I am feeling completely defeated. I'm almost at the point where I want to take a break from charting and just try and see what happens but I worry that I will have the same thing happen that happen last cycle and I will get my hopes up again if I don't know when I haved O'd. I feel like I just can't win at this point.

Thanks for listening, sorry to be such a downer.

Sorry your body played such games with you last cycle.  Your not being a downer at all, CD1 is a bummer, especially if you were late last cycle.  If you think that a charting break will help you feel better than go for it.  But if you will regret not knowing if and when you O, than maybe you should keep charting.  Whatever you choose, just don't give up hope, try to stay positive. :-)

So sorry :-(  I will be on CD1 tomorrow...I'm trying to look at it as a new start.  Hang in there.

I had a cycle where I missed several days of temps and I ended up being almost a week late before AF reared her ugly head (looking back I'm pretty sure I O'd later than normal)...it sucked. Hang in there hun! ((big hugs)) 

ETA: wanted to add that if you feel you need a charting break and think that would be better for you, go for it

We are both CD1 buddies... this is Month #16 for me.. not sure the cycle #.  I didn't chart last month and it Drove me crazy, if you can stand not charting and being in control go for it, but if not I would continue to do it.. Good luck with everything and keeping my fingers crossed for you!
