Feel free to chime in, offer hugs, give your interpretation of a chart stalk and share your knowledge! image

This is a thread posted daily for any of us who need to get out our frustrations about waiting to O, the 2WW, or vent about our cycles.

If you find yourself checking FF obsessively, MF is getting the best of you, or you just want to pee on all things, let it out here! In order for the conductors to be better able to help you, please make sure you either have a FF chart link in your sig, or make sure you post a link.

Don't chart? You should consider it, not only will it give you a lot more insight to your cycles, but conductors will be able to answer a lot of your questions just by looking at your chart!

To learn more about charting, check out the charting course that FF offers:https://www.fertilityfriend.com/courses/

The CT is not the place to post a BFP. If you have a "squinter" or if you have a line that appeared after the time frame, please do not post about it here. Take a step back from the board, test again with FMU, and good luck!

  • linkloveszelda26 I don't think you need to worry about anovulatory yet...  Generally my o is closer to cd19/20 .  CD 17 without o yet isn't so so crazy.  FX you O soon!

    I better board the crazy train for a minute, too!

    Crazy level from 1-10: today, not too, too crazy - 6.5

    CD/DPO: 20/6

    Can I just ______ already?!: know (I know, I need to stop being a whiny brat)

    Signs/Symptoms: Tired. Short of breathe (which was a big difference I noticed from my first early pregnancy), crazy dreams/dreams every night, and very suddenly, raspberries no longer taste the same (they taste like total shit, in fact). Symptom spotting much? I need to cool it!

    Explain your Crazy here: Dear body, either get the cold/sinus infection that your symptoms actually suggest or give me a BFP. That is all. Trying for some patience. Also, I feel like my OB is just not taking me seriously.

    **EDIT: I do not chart - as of now my husband wakes me up constantly through the night (varying times) with his sleep apnea that he has just been diagnosed with. We get the breathing machine in a couple weeks! Hoping to start charting at that time! For now I just check my CM and, oddly enough, the position of my cervix at the same 2 times every day.**
  • @heartbot oh, I know I'm being nuts and just wishfully symptom spotting. Sorry about the OB comment. I am new to this OB, and I have heard from so many women/friends that he is just incredible. I just feel like he isn't taking the "same" (similar) actions for me as he has done with the women who have raved about him. Time will tell whether I will stick with him, or not.
  • Hi ladies!

    Crazy level from 1-10: around an 8

    CD/DPO: 26/12

    Can I just ______ already?!: move on

    Signs/Symptoms: decreasing progesterone symptoms

    Explain your Crazy here: So, my temp crashed to almost the coverline this morning. This, coupled with a BFFN this morning, leads me to believe I'm out. My RE wants me to take progesterone until 14DPO, but I'm over it at this point. It has been a really mind fuck this month, with extra symptoms. I had high hopes for this cycle, but it doesn't seem like it will work out. I'm feeling like a downer today...sorry ladies.

  • @ldubhawksfan I agree with the wish that BA and progesterone would work on their own. My RE sounds similar to yours, in that he wants to wait and observe for a while before trying something more aggressive. GL at your appt tomorrow!

    @lycih FX for you and your super pretty chart!

    @linkloveszelda26 It looks like you have had a later O previously, at CD18. I wouldn't count yourself out this cycle as An-O yet. 
  • ugh, big hugs @mrspipp

  • @heartbot It, first, seemed odd to me that he didn't want to do an early US on me because of how many surgeries I've had for endo (only 2, but still). I let that one go. We had no follow up after my MC, I found that to be strange but didn't think too much of it. We had a phone call when he called to tell me that my progestrone levels were low so I asked what that meant for future pregnancies? A friend of mine had a very similar MC and a similar background with endo. She also goes to this OB. When she had her MC she was told that as soon as she took a positive HPT that she should call to get blood work done right away to make sure her progestrone was playing nice, and that she would have an early US (6 weeks) to make sure everything was looking as normal as possible.

    Knowing that when he spoke to me about my levels, I asked what I should do in the event of a BFP HPT in the future. He said, "Nothing different, really. You're young and you're ovulating. Let us know in the event that that does happen and we'll get you scheduled between 8-12 weeks."  I guess, to me, it just felt very rushed and crass? If my levels were low, what's wrong with me getting early blood work done to weed that out? It doesn't take an appt, just a lab order to make sure. Or am I the one being unreasonable. Not too much experience on this end.
  • This is my first crazy train post. But I'm going nuts today. I just picked back up using FF after it was recommended from you all... So my charts a little whacky, how can I link it from mobile?
    (I'm kinda a newby lurker, sorry for the dumb questions)


    CD/PO: 31/(thinking AnO)

    Can I just___ already: know the hell what's going on/ get my period

    Signs/symptoms: none really

    Explain crazy here: 2nd cycle after d&c and I'm back to my crazy ways (like I was before we got pregnant). Long cycles and possibly not ovulating. I was hoping to just be able to track my cycle (while mentally benched) until we got back TTC in February. Doesn't seem like it helped.
  • CD30/4Dpo

    Can I just fast forward a few days??

    Signs/symptoms: Nada!

    I removed my chart from my siggy, Hubs ask me to stop charting as he felt it was making me crazier and I have to agree with him. I charted long enough after my +OPKs for FF to pick up O and will no longer be temping. I'll reevaluate temping again after this 2WW. Maybe now that I've gotten my first confirmed O I won't be so crazy next cycle. Worried about the length of my luteal phase though. Last cycle was 40 days with no O detected with Opks, I hadn't started temping yet. The cycle before that was 32 days. I didn't O until cd 26, so I hope my uterus holds out a few extra days!

    Me:21 Hubs:23

    Married 5/19/12

    BFP#1: 6/6/12 EDD: 2/8/13 DS: 2/11/13

    BFP#2: 8/18/14  EDD: 4/25/15 MC: 5wks 5days

    Holding out hope our firefly will light up our world again!
