Doing good. I'm letting go of this cycle. I'm going to take a 'I don't care if I get KU or not approach' while still using OPKs and BDing during my FW. My hope is by completely removing the forcefulness, I'll get pregnant. I may or may not be crazy
Is anyone in the FW yet?
Nope

How is everyone doing today? How is everyone feeling about this cycle, I know we are all pretty early. Is anyone in the FW yet? No fertile window in sight! =( Doing fine other than that. Work is realllly picking up so that's keeping me super busy and my mind off things-thankfully.
QOTD: If you could go on a trip anywhere, money is no object, where would you go? A month long trip to Australia and New Zealand-it's always been on my list

Relax...what a nice word ha...hopefully we will all be able to. The beginning of the cycle and right after confirmed O seems to be the most "relaxed" part ha. You don't chart correct? Do you use OPKs? You should be Oing in less that a week correct?

Doing ok for now. I feel more relaxed. We are doing the EOD until I get a peak on the monitor, which will hopefully be tomorrow or the next day. I have a cold so that blows. I also have been using mucenix which seems to have made a difference.
Is anyone in the FW yet? I think I am, but no Oing yet.
QOTD: If you could go on a trip anywhere, money is no object, where would you go?
Ireland. DH is Irish and we would love to visit for like a month and travel all around.

Yep, using CBE this month. I'm usually a later O'er (that is totally not the right language) so I may not be a good CB this month. I didn't think about that when I joined =( I haven't started my readings yet-usually do on Day 10 I think so we shall see.
How are you liking the CBE so far?

PGAL/PAL welcome
I saw your other thread
...I responded there, but I will say, I get it, it can be so hard! Did you BD yesterday at least? You are probably Oing today (at least according to the CBEFM directions) so in theory tomorrow should show up as high. I hope this was enough for you! You will hopefully be the first in our group to get a BFP, and the rest of us will follow a few days behind you!

you will be a great CB, even if you O later, we will still root you on
So far I like it. I was concerned when I got a high reading on day 7 and promptly freaked out thinking I would O super early...I am betting tomorrow or the next day will provide a peak (at least I hope) and I am relying on that a lot this month. I have been lax about my other "signs" not judging my cervix position 8 times a day and wondering if the twinges are O pains or not. We have just been bding EOD and plan on doing the ED starting tomorrow if it is a peak. Time will tell. I just figure the crazy GRM didn't work, the serious temper GRM didn't work...so I am trying the EOD/ monitor, lax GRM to see if that works. ha. GL!!

I started charting this cycle and I use opks. I tried testing yesterday negative, but I knew it was going to be. I should hopefully O around cd14. So a little bit yet. Fx'd that we all can stay relaxed this cycle. I hope the monitor works for you!!
