Okay ladies, I'm in need of some encouragement.
On Saturday (my Cd8), my OPK showed low fertility. EWCM showed up that day though, so BD anyway. Sunday, OPK went straight to peak, skipping a step, and we BD'd that day as well. Well yesterday I still had EWCM and assumed O would come soon. No successful BD though.I hate admitting it out loud, but sometimes DH can't. It normally doesn't bother me, especially when we're just doing it for fun, but at crunch time, it's extremely stressful. We even had a little argument afterward which I feel awful about.
He started a 24-hour shift this morning, and assuming I work tomorrow (school has been cancelled so far this week due to snow, but we may go back tomorrow), we won't have another chance until tomorrow night...which I'm guessing will be too late. It has me feeling like I don't have optimum chances this cycle anymore, which is killing me, especially since we're a little uphill anyways with low DH numbers.
To add to this, my temp still isn't shifting. I got my LH surge 48 hours ago. I expected a rise today, but no go. Now - in my gloomy, pessimistic state - I'm worrying that there's something wrong with me that's keeping me from ovulating. My biggest fear was finding out there's something wrong on my side, too. I'm not handling things well today.
I need hugs and encouragement in the worst way.
So, this is a completely random change of topics, but AF is due either tomorrow or Thursday and I feel like the TWW is no where near as hard as the TDW (2 day wait). I still have no pms other than sore boobs and now I keep getting a random pain in what feels like my left ovary. I think I may be having very slight cramps also. It's easy not to symptom spot when you don't have symptoms but I'm trying not to get all crazy this month (like I did last month) and the closer I get to AF the more I want to say, this means or that means.

I haven't tested yet. I figure if I haven't gotten it by Sat. then I will test. My longest cycle since getting off BC in April has been 32 days and has been between 30 and 32 since July. The 9th will be 32 so I'm keeping my fingers crossed thatstays away.

Wow! That is some restraint there! Well good luck to you. Wishing you lots of baby dust!
Just an update on symptoms: add frequent urination(but it could be b/c I have been drinking more than I normally do like milk with dinner and some pomegranate juice)!! I'm trying not to get freaking excited....but I keep symptom checking! LOL UUGH! I keep squeezing my boobs just to make sure they're still a tad tender! I've been trying to keep busy by cleaning, shopping, and cruising the ttc community!!

It's less about restraint and more about not wanting to see a BFN. Good luck to you and plenty of baby dust your way! when are you testing? And I too keep squeezing my boobs. Glad to see I'm not the only one.![]()
Good luck to us all then. Keeping fingers crossed AF stays away. I'm off to battle the great winter chill. Stupid polar weather phenomenon. Although, it has warmed up to 3 degrees from the -9 it was this morning!
We're all the way up to 4 1/2 here! It's practically a heatwave!![]()
