Why.

Every time I see a FF ticker on here I click and everyone's is so nice and has very clear shifts and mine is so damn ugly and it's making me sad. And while I am happy for all of the BFPs that there have been in the past few days (and holy hell there have been a lot) I'm getting really frustrated. And this is only my first cycle temping. Why does something that should be fun and exciting have to be this stressful?
Sigh.

Re: Why.
I'm sorry your chart has been so frustrating. I know there are plenty of ladies who have long cycles here and even though I got CHs last month, my chart isn't exactly typical either (the regular "advanced" setting doesn't seem to pick up my O date).
Hang in there and I hope you O soon.
It is frustrating sometimes, especially when BFPs come so quickly to some newbies, and not others. Don't let it get to you so soon!
There are so many women on here that I find myself hoping they get BFPs before me, because they have been at this for so long. Don't get me wrong, I would kill for one, but I really can't imagine what this is like month after month. Those girls are my heroes!!
I know. Every time I throw a pity party for myself I think about the women here who have been trying so long and then I feel worse because I feel like they deserve it more than I do, and that I have no right to be complaining about no luck after only one or two cycles.

Sorry, pickles. Try to hang in there....you never know you could O anyday now and end up with a beautiful chart AND a BFP!
And I agree with all the BFP's lately being hard to take...I'm getting down on myself because it feels like just about everyone is starting to "leave me in the dust"....even newbs. It's frustrating but I know we'll all get our BFP's in time!

I know-keep your chin up! It will happen to us. Keep humping and charting!!
Its ok! It's not ugly, plus it's only your first cycle temping, give it a couple cycles (hopefully you won't need them) but yours will probably be just as pretty as everyone elses.
Plus, i just started temping yesterday so mine isn't pretty yet either.
TTC since 2010

Your chart doesn't look too bad. I know it's long and seems drawn out, but be patient. My first full cycle temping was a nightmare. It was 75 days long and no O. I had 1 or 2 annovulatory cycles in a row, but now it looks like I'm finally getting back to normal.
I know it's hard to wait it out, but it really will be worth it when you finally start seeing those CHs. Also, my first cycle that I caught my O, I actually O'd on cd47, so don't give up on this cycle just yet. GL!
Most of my charts are ugly. I found that they got just a tiny bit better once I switched to vag temping.
Good luck
