Well I am confused on this whole thing . Not sure when I O if I did at all. I have just been charting my CM and CP should have temped i know. I took a test and a BFN! i don;t know if it's too early or what. last time i got AF around the 5th so I guess if she doesnt show up i'll test again. I am going to temp this next cycle. When should I start. when AF shows up or right after ?


TGIF!!! I hope you all have a great weekend to come!

Becca - if you go by the EWCM you listed you'd only be 11DPO today (today is Thursday not Friday ) - it could very well be too early. But yes it will be probably be confusing unless you track other things... you can start temping now if you want just to get the hang of it...

Hi y'all. My last full day of work. Ack!

Becca - you also have your data listed on your chart for Friday including the BFN you got... so I figured you had the day confused...

Steph~Have a good last day of work!

Becca~I'm with Irene. It could still be too early.

Rebecca~I can't believe you're almost done with school!

Christie~I can't believe still no BFP or AF!

Jen~I'm so sorry. I don't have any words of wisdom either, but I wanted to tell you that I understand. I've gotten many comments like that too and I know how hard it is to take. {{{Hugs}}}

Becca - try manually setting your O-date on FF as the 2nd day of EWCM and then see what it gives you for a test date

Good morning, goils!

Bina ~ Wow…I’m using the poor brand. Maybe that’s why I’m not pg yet!

Jen ~ I’m so sorry. I can relate in the department of those people who say to “Relax” or “Don’t think about it.” I’ve just made the conscious decision to not speak to them about it anymore. *hugs*

Christie ~ Another BFN? Still no sign of AF???

Claire ~ LOL, just got a visual of you hanging out in the OPK, HPT aisle.

Steph ~ Happy last day of work!!!

Becca ~ I think all the girls will attest to testing at a different time, based on symptoms or a certain day. I know that after reading TCOYF, I’d like to test (if I could hold out) 18DPO and if my temps are still up. Due to the fact that I start spotting 6-8 DPO, I only test now to make sure so I can drink go on a roller coaster, etc. or on special occasions (cause I love to torture myself) thinking what a nice gift it would be for Cap’n.

Irene- Thanks a Million.<3

I think I got it set right . I will get the hang of this watch lol. So I guess my next test date will be Aug 6th? which should be around AF time.

Becky~I think I missed your question before. Yes, the summer has flown by!!! I'm still nowhere near finishing all the things I wanted to do. We go back at the end of August, so I still have a few more weeks. Aren't you a teacher too? When do you go back?

Becca~To piggyback on what Mel said, I wait until AF is late. When I got my bfp my temp was still up, past my usual lp. My RE however, wants me to test even if AF comes. I think that was just for when I was starting clomid, just to be sure. This month, since I didn't do anything with medicines, I didn't test.

Rebecca~That cleanse sounds pretty easy actually! Is it expensive? I don't eat much meat as it is, so that shouldn't be to difficult. I do eat cereal every morning so i'd have to not do that. I think the lady just said my scapula was that way cause I probably had bad posture. Which I do. I sit at a computer all day. My keyboard is kinda out in front of me. I don't have to lift my arms or anything to reach it. I'd love to get a massage once a month, but that is hard to convince DH to let me! Winters coming and we're about to start working on our basement again. Always doing something!

Hope everyone is having a good day! Almost the weekend

JJ- What do you teach?

Becca- I'd start temping no later than CD1. At least the first cycle temping. As far as testing, it's really a personal thing and how much you like sefl-torture. I think it's FF has a section in the FAQ that shows statistics for HPT reliability. Reading that reallymade my mind up about waiting to test until 18dpo.....or basically when AF is late.

Oh, and about the progesterone( This is for you, too, Mary. Just in case your LP goes wonky again): One of my friends on a BG at FF just got her BFP after her first cycle on prog . Shes had a LP defect for a while and finally went to the RE and poof!

Claire-I got my BFP with Avery the first cycle on progesterone too!

I forget who asked, but I since I'll be TTC next month my Dr. said to start it this month to help get things regulated. I do think it has a cumulative effect of some type.

just sneaking on real quick at work so will catch up more later..
