DOR ladies

If you chart, do you every just want to give your chart the finger?! ;)

I am starting to feel like what is the point. We have only been TTC #2 for a short amount of time, but with my issues, I know it's not super likely
I am going to get lucky again.

This cycle, I had days of EWCM, with well timed sex and beautiful OPK's. On day 14 of my cycle, no less. Textbook, right? 
And my LP's have gotten longer and I no longer have all the spotting I did the first time around.

I just know it really doesn't mean much. I get excited and then angry that I am getting my hopes up. I am probably ovulating an immature egg. 

Anyway, if you are a fellow DOR'er, I know you get it.

    I am not DOR, but I am AMA. The doc thinks because of my age that I have old eggs, so every month is a crap shoot as to whether or not we will get a "good" egg. So very frustrating.

    BFP #1 12.24.07 - DD born @ 39w1d on 08.26.08
    BFP #2 08.04.11 - DD born still @ 37w3d on 03.25.12

    Lilypie Angel and Memorial tickers

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    TTC #3 since May 2012

    BFP #3 12.29.12 - CP @ 4w2d on 01.02.13
    BFP #4 10.17.13 - CP @ 4w2d on 10.23.13
    BFP #5 04.06.14 - MMC 05.07.14

    No longer trying to conceive.

    Yeah, I don't record cm because with PCOS, it's really common to get fertile patches throughout the cycle when it means nothing.  I had also stopped recording BD when we were trying for #1.  It was totally taking the enjoyment out of making love to my husband (as is the case for many of us, I'm sure!).  Recording it made me obsess about it too much.  I have started recording it again, though, because now that we have DS, I would literally go weeks w/o and not even notice.

    I keep charting, though because at least I know WHEN I o and it gives me an idea of when to expect AF.  But, yeah, knowing when I o gives me about a week and a half of living in fantasy land that is followed by a heart breaking crash.
