Hey ladies! Just wanted to check in with y'all!

Who has already O'd, raise your hand? How do you feel about you BD timing? What do you plan to do during the 2WW to make it go by faster?

If you haven't O'd yet, raise your hand. About how much longer til you usually O?What's your BD plan for O time?

Anybody have anything fun/interesting/special going on?

((Hugs)) to you all!

Hey!! Thanks for checking in on all of us!

Not really sure if I O'd bc I'm still not getting CH's on FF. I had 4 days of +OPK's but I've had a temp spike and my CM dried up so it's totally possible I did.

My brother has been in town from Colorado so I've been seeing him as much as possible but other than that nothing too interesting. Ready for a nice relaxing weekend. Hopefully the rain stops by Friday so we can get some yard work done.

How about you??

I'm slightly jealous of you ladies who O so early in your cycle. When I was in HS I loved the fact that my cycles were longer. Now I'd rather have them be shorter! lol

I have not yet O'd and DH's birthday is tomorrow! So we will be spending the rest of the week and the weekend celebrating his birthday his favorite way - BDing. :P I'm thinking about going out to buy myself a cute new outfit for the weekend.

DH doesn't like to know my BD 'plans' because he says it takes the fun out of it. But I am a planner and I plan to BD every day over the weekend through tuesday. We have a holiday Mon-Wed, so that helps!

FF is saying I should O next Fri, I'm going totally insane because my cycles have been so wonky since December, which is why I came back to TB, I needed support through this crazy.

However I'm hoping FF is wrong because my cervix is so high right now I can barely reach it. OPKs are starting to get darker, last cycle from the time I could notice them getting darker to a pos was about a week so that kind of matches with FF. Who knows I'm a whole hot mess in this waiting.

I had my appt yesterday with my primary care and she wrote an intense referral explaining exactly what's going on with my cycles and why I didn't like the OBs Perscription in hopes that I can get a second opinion. Now it's the waiting game to see if the first obgyn is gonna call me when the referral goes through or if maybe I will get super lucky and be allowed to see a civilian. So not only am I waiting to O I'm waiting for that too.

Thanks for starting the questions today Lydia, and I know I have a pm from you hopefully I'll have time today to respond.

I'm so glad that your primary care took care of you like that. Fx that you're allowed to see someone else.
The O wait is the worst!!! I hope it goes by quickly for you. I took an OPK yesterday and it actually had a lighter line than the day before. And I definitely haven't Oed yet. I was actually starting earlier than I probably should've. I'm trying not to look too much into it. I think OPKs may be making me crazy.
How did dinner go last week? Did you have to host or did you get to go out?

Yes the O wait is driving me crazy I even posted in the crazy train yesterday and said I think the O wait is so much harder than the TWW when you are having irregular cycles.

Dinner was great we ended up going out to Buffalo Wild Wings I had a good time enjoyed the company and got some major cleaning done that I had been procrastinating on. Had a beer while we were there, that I couldn't finish because it has been so long since I've had an alcoholic drink all to myself and I was driving so when I started to feel it I stopped drinking so I had the hour and half to work it out of my system. I was disappointed I couldn't finish it, but still enjoyed myself so much! Thanks for asking.

I started my OPKs super earlier too because I thought my body was being nice to me, I'd have to look at my chart to see how many days but definitely way longer than needed and I kept telling myself I wasn't going to keep testing until my CM started to change.

Which OMG I just had EWCM on the TP I haven't had that since NOV!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe so I checked and had to play with it...kinda gross I know but wow I almost cried I was so happy!!!!!! Still no positive OPK I was actually in the bathroom to POAS (opk) and then there was that too I cannot even describe it!!!!! OPKs are getting darker too, which is what they did last cycle, got progressively darker with only one positive so yeah. I am so happy if you can't tell by the !!!!!!! When DH gets home it is so on!!!!!!

Looking like I O'd Monday, waiting for tomorrow's temp to confirm. Not sure how I feel about our BD timing. I wanted to dtd Sun and Mon, or at least Sun and Tues. We at least dtd Sun, but Mon was a bust and then Tues I was so upset about missing out, we had a huge blow out fight and no way was it going to happen. Ugh. I made myself a little, ok a lot, nuts by obsessing over OPKs and charting, which is exactly what H predicted. I think next cycle I need to step away from charting and OPKs...but I love having that concrete evidence something is happening!!!

Anybody have anything fun/interesting/special going on?

Well, I am starting the process of having my mare bred. PIcked out the baby daddy, booked a vet to do a breeding exam, and will go from there. I wish te circumstances were different (she injured an ankle), but I have always dreamed of breeding her. I could never replace her and she is getting older. Fingers crossed! I could be "grandma" before even being "mom"! So, obsessing over my horse will occup my attention during the 2WW ahead.

((Hugs)) to you all!

((hugs)) to you and all the rest!! FX for all and I so hope we start hearing of multiple BFPs in two weeks!!!

Hello ladies.

Well according to FF, it thinks I O'd 5 days ago, which is completely wrong. Just got an OPK that looked about positive so should be happening the next few days. I'm hoping it will hold out a bit more, I've been traveling for work this week, so the timing has really sucked. I fly home tomorrow, so I hope I get some I miss you sexy time right under the gun!

The conference I'm at in Seattle is seriously mind blowing. I have so many nerdy web things to share when I get back to work.

I'm firmly in the No O camp. It isn't expected for me until the tail end of this month (CD13-15 for me, I'm on CD9 now). My BD plan is go get as much action as I can in the vicinity of O Wink

FF had some changing O dates for you last cycle too, if I remember correctly. I hope that FF is wrong and that your O is coming up when you get home!

Eliz77 · April 2013

Hi CBs! Just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing...I think most of us are in the 2WW now. How are you all holding up? Those who haven't O'd yet, good luck!!

I am 8dpo and not going crazy just yet! H mentioned we would be hosting two parties in the next month and my 1st thought was,"Well, at least if this is a BFN, I can drink..." Much rather get that BFP though! Last cycle I was determined to wait until 14dpo to test and I caved a couple days earlier...I think 12dpo? I plan to wait until Monday, which would be 14dpo. I'm trying not to read into every little symptom and just take it easy. I do have a lot on my plate right now, so at least I have distractions!

FX for the rest of you!

Hey ladies... how's everyone doing? I'm still waiting to O. I swear, I had no idea that I was this late in my cycle. I wonder if it's every month or if this one is just special. I'm starting to feel that my ovulation is like the 'watched pot never boils' thing. It won't happen so long as I'm charting it.

OR maybe, just maybe the big temp dip I had this morning could be bringing about ovulation. Does that happen? Could someone chart stalk me to see if I'm crazy for thinking that might be it?

Eliz -- two parties? how soon are they? are you stressed? I get stressed about hosting things because I feel like the house has to be absolutely perfect.

I chart stalked you this morning and saw the dip and thought that O might be in your very near future, then again I'm a total n00b at charting and could be completely off. So there's my worthless two cents.

I have no idea if I O'd. I got a million days of +OPK's, I had EWCM, I had a temp shift, but bc it was so early FF doesn't want to give me anything. Eff you FF. I have a little poll in my chart asking what day you think I O'd (if any of you would like to take a jab) and I've seen CD 7, 8, and 9. I POAS this morning and BFN but it's still pretty early so I'll wait til early next week to test again.

Also, I love you all!!

I see your temp drop, I THINK that can be an indicator O is coming. I've only been temping two cycles now and had that happen both times, more obvious last cycle though. Last cycle, I got a +OPK on day 17, NEVER thought I'd be that late. FF confirmed with temp shift and I got AF 14 days later. Longest cycle I ever had (pre-MC were always 28 days), so I'm guessing it's the whole wonky cycles post MC deal.

Not stressing, I LOVE hosting parties! H usually gets overwhelmed, though. The 1st will be for Memorial Day, really his work friends and some other friends of both of us. 2nd party is technically in June, for my family. My sister and brother/SIL will be up for the weekend, so we'll do a BBQ/family picnic. Really looking forward to it!
