Hello, ladies, I'm new here; a little background info - I have a daughter who's 5. My husband and I have been TTC #2 for 14 months now. I was pregnant in May and July, but had miscarriages due to low progesterone. Dr. prescribed progesterone for after O, and this is my second cycle trying it. My ovulation is crazy and unpredictable, and this is the first time I've O'd since September.
I was sick with a fever last week; FF thinks I o'd on Monday, but I think it was Wednesday, as my breasts always hurt immediately following O and Thursday, they did like clockwork. My temps have been strangely low and erratic, with two falling below my cover line.
I was thinking I was out for the month b/c of the low temps and only BDing 2x within 4 days, but now I"m beginning to wonder. I'm estimating today to be about 9dpo. I started spotting yesterday, but it was gone this morning. Experienced a sharp pain in my uterus this evening - wondering if any of that is implantation or what.
I'd love to post my chart, but I don't know how, lol, so help with that would be appreciated. Any of you ever have crazy temps but still ovulated (even if you didn't think you did) and/or gotten pregnant?

Anyway, what's done is done. Roll with it and jump in. If you get a BFP this month, it might be called a "driveby" but it's still a BFP and you'll have the satisfaction of leaving us here on 2IF and the thrill of being pregnant. If you don't, then you'll have learned the dynamic of the board and made a few Internet friends who might get a little of what you're going through.
This is an amazingly supportive group of ladies. I can see where you felt like an outsider, but after so many months of BFNs, procedures, and random discussion, we really are a tight little group and there has been an influx lately of people with 2IF who manage to get BFPs like a day after they intro.
Also, IF board (in general) etiquette seems to be not to post questions about signs/symptoms- those are usually directed toward 1st tri. As for your question about the whacky chart, I bet pregnant after infertility might have some answers because they've been through charting/pregnancy recently.
I really think once you see what it's all about, you'll like it here. But of course, where you go on the Internet is your decision, not mine.
At any rate, welcome.
She really couldn't have said it better, lurk around the board and become familiar with our community and how we roll :-)
Are you seeing a RE and are your cycles monitored?

Welcome! I'm sorry you find yourself here. I agree 100% with everything @mrs Castillo said. We are a small and tight nit board but the ladies here have been having a hard time lately and the overall tone of the board is rather sad
I'm a novice charter but I am finding my post loss cycles to be really wonky and in my expirence symptoms = AF.
Anyway welcome and good luck.
