Just wanted to tell you I'm thinking about you right now...as I know you are at the O stage. I'm sending many positive thoughts and prayers your way.. Be sure and keep us posted about how you and your dh are doing. Oh...and I looked at your charts yesterday--You are SO regular...I'm jealous! Have a great day!

Anne,

Thanks so much for the positive thoughts and prayers. We need all we can get. I'm so sorry I missed this post. I can't believe I missed it. We went to the MIL's for the weekend, so I did not get back on computer til Monday, and by then, it was moved so far back, I never saw it. I'm so sorry.

Well, I am so excited that we finally do sorta have a chance this month, however, I am just a little disappointed that we weren't able to get at least one more BD in. It sure wasn't because we did not try. We did. But, we only got one good, perfectly timed BD that I'm holding on to hope with. DH has tried so hard and has been very attentive. Very caring. So, I guess we'll just have to see what happens.

Here I am on CD15 ( what I believe to be 2 DPO ) but I did like you and played around with FF to see when they will say I "O"d. I plugged in temps for tomorrow and Friday and they put me "O"ing on CD14. I thought for sure it would be CD13. And the weird things is, I have ALWAYS been able to tell when I "O" , I have very distinct "O" pains, I have felt nothing but tiny , little twinges right in the middle under the belly button, not on one side like usual. So, I'm wondering if I have even "O"d for sure. I was doing OPK strips from CD9 and couldn't even get a test line to come up. I swear, I won't be buying any more of those tests. They did not work in June either when I did them. So, I don't know what to think right now. ( Darn, I really don't know what to think, cause right now as I type, I'm having a VERY sharp pain shooting through my right BB. )What the He!! is that???? I know it's way to early to have a symptom like that even if by the Lord's good grace that we did conceive. Wow, let the obsessing begin for me. Haven't had this in all my other cycles since charting, cause I knew there was no chance, no BDing.

Please send patience , implant, AFSA, and BFP Vibes my way!!!!!

GL to you Anne, and I'm sorry sorry that Spot is moving in. On to the next cycle!!!

GL Lisa! I've got everything crossed for you still!

Can't wait to obsess with you over the next few days! LOL!

Spot is gone...No AF, still...and today when I plugged in my temp, FF changed my chart to anovulatory!!! What??? I played with the settings and got it to give me back an O date...but I think it is very suspect. I wonder if I even O'd at all. I have stopped the Progesterone, though...and so should get AF soon either way.

I'm wondering if my O's are really good strong O's. I've read that you can have a temp increase the second half of the cycle even without O...something about getting a surge and your ovary tries to O, but never actually releases the egg. I wonder if this may not be happening to me. Last cycle, just to see what happened, I put my temps into baby med and it said anovulatory....that would explain the continued low prog levels even on prog supplementation.

So I called my doctor today to see if she would give me Clomid. I'd like to try it just to see what that does to my temp pattern. I'm waiting to hear back from her. I don't know if you have read my crazy confused posts lately...but we have a new game plan...I'm not taking the progesterone suppositories this cycle. I'm just going to increase my PLUS supplement (wild yam) and try natural progesterone cream...and see what happens. A friend of ours who is a Nurse Practitioner recommended this plan...so we'll see.

Which OPK strips are you using. I just ordered some from testsforless.com...thought I'd give them a try next cycle, too. Hope they work...I'm hoping they will help take the confusion away from the "when was O?" question I have EVERY cycle! LOL!

Anyway...keep us posted on your symptoms! I'm hoping this did it for you! How cool would that be????

Take care,

Anne
