That is my chart, i got off the pill in late july and my period started on july 31st, im now on cycle day 41. I knew my cycle would be alittle drug out but i didnt know how long. I started charting halfway through this cycle but it looks as though i ovulated, FF is saying i ovulated later then i thought i would have but still, it looks as though i did ovulate, maybe ill see AF or BFP soon. I plan to test saterday. I didnt have EWCM on the day FF said i ovulated, but i had t earlyer.

Does anyone think my chart looks good, bad, annovulatory, or cant tell?

I dont feel much different, for the last week ive had alot of dizzy spells, ill feel light headed or dizzy if i don't eat every hour or two so my appetite is a bit more as well but no soreness or anything other then a few cramps. The odd thing is yesterday i got an ache i my breast, it was noticable enough for me to notice while i was walking. It was a dull throbing ache that went away after 3 minutes or so. No soreness or increased urination or nausea or anything. Things im feelingcould be effects of going off the pill maybe?

What do you think, do i have a chance? Will this cycle EVER END!?

Thanks;)

Hey Girl,

The only thing that I can say is that the pill can do some funky things to your cycle. It took me 4 months off the pill to get pregnant. I would wait until 14dpo and test with FMU if AF doesn't show. From what I understand FF gives you a coverline based off your temps and not your CM. So I BD'ed anyday that I thought that I had good CM just to cover all my basis. Good Luck to you and I hope that you get your BFP soon.

I think I agree with FF about your ovulation day, which puts you at 10 DPO now. The things you are feeling could be PG symptoms, but could also be pre-AF symptoms. You should know in just a few more days now. I wouldn't worry too much about the CM. A lot of people don't see the EWCM at ovulation. I think my CM has gotten steadily better since I went off the pill earlier this year, so don't stress over it, and you can still get PG without EWCM.

GOod Luck,

Because your temps were consistantly under your coverline for a week and then rose and stayed above your coverline since I would say FF is pretty accurate on the day of ovulation. Not all women get EWCM before ovulation, and some women have cycles where they do not have it at all. It also looks like you timed your BD at the right time so maybe this is your month. I would say wait until the 13th and if AF hasn't showed then test, Good Luck.

jpakajr-- Thanks for letting me know, your Due date is pretty neat BTW;) I guess the cycle has just dragged my cycle out, at least everyone says i ovulated, i hear some people dont even ovulate for awhile, im keeping my fingers crossed!

circumstance-- Thanks for responding, we got lucky with BD'ing when we did, i had already assumed at that point that i hadnt andf wasnt gonig to ovulate. We got lucky, hopefully we got that egg! This cycle seems to go on and on and i really hope and pray im pregnant!

vcg01-- Thanks, ive never had pre-af symptoms, it normally just hits THEN i feel cramps so im pretty sure its not preAF, before i got on the pill i was very regular and never cramped till day 2 into my period. I was concerned with the dizziness, i am not sure if people get increased appetites coming off the pill or not, i just know the pill messes with my hormones so i was thinknig being dizzy was eather a possible pregnancy or effects of going off the pill. I sure hope i have a chance though, this cycle seems to go on and on!

Your welcome. Yeah my due date is pretty funny huh? Good Luck to you and let us know how it goes. I think that my cycles were so different that the only way I knew when to test was 14dpo. That way if it was o I should test positive with a FRE(First Responce Early Test). but on my 4 month I had sore BB's right after I o'ed which I didn't experience with the prior months. So I tested 12 dpo and BFN. Only to test at 14dpo and got a BFP. So patience is a virtual in the saga of TTC.

Good Luck and I hope that your stay is short and sweet!
