Really pleased to hear it. X
How is everyone today? I'm having one of those over emotional days maybe because had my blood test this morning and brought up the nerves. Tried to book a joint appointment for me and dh to get all results (is the sperm ones I'm scared of) and reception made it so difficult i actually burst into tears, felt very stupid and also quite sorry for the poor woman who didn't know where to look! We get results week tomorrow and feels like forever!![]()
CD1 today, first cycle off the pill! I'm really going to try to not put too much pressure on this cycle, even though I did the math and likely if I don't conceive this cycle I'll need to skip the next couple if I don't want to be due too close to Xmas. But who knows if I'll even ovulate at all this cycle or how long it'll be. The only other time I went off the pill I had a normal cycle but I don't know if I ovulated. Although it'd be great to get knocked up right away, financially it would be even better to wait a bit longer so I'm just going to look at it as being positive either wayThis cycle is going to be crazy too, I'm traveling without DH CD7-10 (crossing my fingers I don't ovulate early!) and then we're both traveling out to CA CD14-21. So I think temping might already be a lost cause but I'm going to try!
That said, I feel like OPKs are going to be the most important thing this cycle. Does anyone have any thoughts on when I should start them? CD8? CD10? I just have no idea.

Sorry you are having a rough day. Hope you get good results! Waiting a week can be awful!
I am actually doing pretty well so far today (just woke up! and I slept REALLY WELL!). Sunday would be cycle day 28 and no sign of AF yet...With starting a new job next month, I really hope that AF comes...honestly, we have had so much transition recently, that would just add to another. Either way, I know everything will be fine...I just kinda have this feeling...not sure when I should test...
I think you should start testing around CD10. A normal cycle is 28 days and ovulate on day 14 so unless you're positive your cycles are shorter than that I'd say test CD10.
Good Luck! We can learn this temping thing together. My one co-worker who I tell everything to, comes into my office every morning to make me pull up my chart so she can see what it looks like today. (we are a strange bunch) She isn't TTC. She's actually mostly single right now. But she's just intrigued by the whole charting thing as she calls it. It's nice because it makes the charting kind of like a game and I don't stress about it.

It didn't happen this cycle and I'm glad. I thought I had a sinus infection and went to the doctor and I have sinus and ear infection and walking pneumonia. At least I have 5 days off work and af is supposed to be here tomorrow so I won't have to be at work with the cramps
Trying to stay on the bright side
Thank you! That's great that you have your coworker to chat about it withDefinitely keep me posted what you're learning and how it's going for you. I'm so excited to see what my body does. Just seeing that first line today after I put in my second temp was super exciting, lol.

I know I keep wanting there to be something else to do with it. I have a weird obsession with pushing the button!I just want to enter information all over the place. I tried to copy it to my signature so we will see how it goes.

Okay, kiddos...I'm in full-on TWW sanity-hanging-on-by-a-limb mode. I have refused to voice any of my symptoms aloud because Im scared to death to feel hope. But I figured if I can talk to anybody, I can talk to my forum girls.![]()
I'm 9dpo today, and I am focused on *trying* to wait to test until I'm 14dpo, which is also the day I'm supposed to start (on average). I really do have symptoms, guys...my tatas are CRAZY sore and my areolas are darker than normal (Im a redhead and extremely pale, so I don't have much of an areola...lol...but right now, I actually have them! I cant remember this ever happening.) I'm exhausted for no discernible reason, I've got heartburn, I'm moody. I also have a sore throat. Maybe I'm getting sick? I also linked my chart...is it too early to tell anything? I mean, I know better than to symptom spot (hell, Ive told others not to do it), but I cant help it...i have them and they drive me NUTS. However...everything except for the areolas has happened to me before. OHMYLORD I hate this.![]()

feel better!I went ahead and took a FRER test this morning and as expected - bfn. My temp dipped a little today. I was up aaaall night because I couldn't sleep and felt like crap. I started having pains last night in my very lower back that feels like kidney pain. It hurts especially when I have to pee and when I pee. It's not strong enough to be a stone (I know all too well what those feel like), but it still hurts like a mother. I don't know what's up with that, but it kept me up, too. Any temping is probably not super accurate since I didn't really sleep. :\ In any case, I'm pretty sure I'm out this cycle, but we'll see what happens in the next few days. AF is due on Monday...which is fitting since Mondays suck anyways. Boo face.![]()
