    Can I just _____ already?!  I don't know, stop temping during my TWW?

    Signs/Symptoms: big temp drop this morning

    There is really no point to this except to whine about my temp drop this morning.  I thought my chart was looking pretty good and now I'm in a mopey mood because I know what's coming...

    (((hugs))) We've had a few people who stop temping during the TWW. It works for them but I know it would make me crazier not knowing what was going on. 

    This is only one temp but I know what you mean when you see a drop near the end of your 2WW.

    Thanks, I'm not sure which way makes me crazier...I think I'm pretty crazy either way to be honest!

    Crazy level from 1-10: 4

    CD/DPO: CD10

    Can I just ___have a good follicles___ already?!: 

    Signs/Symptoms: Some pressure on my right side which makes me think something is going on there

    Explain your Crazy here: I'm doing a medicated cycle this month and go in for a monitoring u/s this morning. I'm all sorts of paranoid that the doctor will find 1) that none of the follicles matured 2) that one took over and I have a giant cyst 3) that, out of nowhere, a whole bunch of follicles that were not there on CD3 magically appeared and he will say not to have sex because of the risk of multiples.  I had a dream last night that when they did the u/s there were  four embryos instead of follicles, and one of them was bad. Since I had four follies, I'm thinking my paranoia seeped into my dreams. I could deal with three good follies at this point.

    Can I just _not have a crazy cycle_ already?!:

    Signs/Symptoms: spotting for 2 days (when I haven never had spotting in my life), boobs that are CRAZY sore, backache, cramping

    Explain your Crazy here:So, you guys know my last two cycles have been really long since my loss and I've been excited to get back down to my "normal" 30/31 day cycle. I was keeping an eye out because FF seemed to think my O date was really early...but definitely no temp change or fertile CM. I started spotting pink yesterday (it's turned to dark pink today) and my pre-AF hormones are making me miserable. But I'm only on CD 28????? So I went from 40 to 36 to 28/29? Last month I had some spotting two days before AF but it was just on the tissue once when I wiped. No regular cycle, no regular symptoms...how in the world am I supposed to read my chart?  End rant...I've been on the crazy train ALLLLLL week :-(  See chart below:

    I feel ya on the symptoms and reading into everything - you are STRONG to wait to test. I always test too early and then again and again because I can't stand it.

    FX for you!  If this isn't out month, we should be cycle buddies! I'm expecting AF on Monday if my body is back to "normal".

    I am still not convinced by those CHs. Cycles become so weird after a loss. My spotting pattern changed completely after my February loss.  (((hugs))) and I hope things get less crazy for you.

    Can I just ___not care___ already?!:

    Signs/Symptoms: nothing

    Explain your Crazy here:  Well I think FF is off by a day. I realize a day probably doesn't matter but I usually O on cd14 and I think I did but cause my sleep was so off and my temp didn't drop that day FF but it at cd13.  It's not a big deal but I'm really considering playing with the temps and seeing if I can change it :P  Also I don't think I'll ever get solid CHs cause I see EWCM post O and apparently FF doesn't like that. Sigh.

    I agree with you on the CD14. Your coverline is hovering right on the CD14 and CD12 temps.  If you don't mind blue CHs, you can go in and adjust your coverline so it is actually higher than you CD12 and 14 temps.

    Explain your Crazy here: I keep thinking AF is going to start early any moment, but so far it's been false alarms. I am having trouble figuring out if all of my discomfort is from PMS or something else. I don't have all of my usual symptoms, and the ones I am having are strong.

    (((hugs))) when do you plan on testing? Make sure you are staying well hydrated. That should help with the crampiness. 

     

    Thank you, Dahling!! I am trying to hydrate, but my tummy is kinda "blech" so it's been a struggle today.
