Jumpingo and mint: I totally agree with you both lots of symptoms and I have read a lot saying that many tests will not diagnose a "mild" condition. I think I will keep inmind the dietary advise and get myself exercising

Always a good idea regardless.

Anyone...

 

[jumpingo]

not sure hunni

seems like maybe this cycle just observe your symptoms and wait out AF? the positive OPK so early throws it off, but there are no temps or other data on your chart to make any kind of guess... sorry!!

 

[hunni12]

Nevermind..sorry for even asking.

 

[jumpingo]

no need to apologize for asking! it seemed like any reply was better than none, so i tried but i don't check CM other than what's on the toilet paper, or use OPKs, so not much help. just wanted to say that i did indeed see your post (the time difference means sometimes i don't see posts until 12-15 hours afterward)

hunni - do you use any other app besides FF? You will probably get a better picture of all your signs and symptoms if you put them all in. In isolation every little thing our bodies do isn't very meaningful - you can maybe see patterns though if you track it all over time.

^^^^wss! CM has never been a good indicator for much, because it's really different for everyone. Without your personalized data and patterns, there's really no way to tell much...

We stopped symptom spotting like fiends after our first cycle tbh. When you're ttc you become hyper aware of every little thing your body does. Without data and patterns, you can't tell if it's the norm or not, or just a fluke, or a chance. She had every pregnancy symptom in the booko our first cycle, which was obvious bfn. Since TTC, I can even tell when I'm ovulating now

congrats pinkturtle!

 

[hunni12]

Much understood, I tried temping but I cannot get the hang of it because lately I cannot sleep at night like I used to. I find myself waking up multiple times through the night and the other morning when I did actually try to temp my toddler woke up and snatched it out my mouth lol. Its so tiring because once one thing gets well my body something else goes out of order

To those that is curious this what it looked like

Pink turtle - that's amazing news! Congratulations! So happy for you!

Hunni - tbh, this cycle of yours has been so wacky, I would try and wait it out. (Who am I kidding?! I would have been testing on both OPK and HPT everyday!)

 

[hunni12]

Lolll hey now i am trying to hold out as long as i can

 

[macydarling]

Sorry your cycle has been so crazy Hunni! Looks like we are in the same boat. I figure that I did ovulate early too, sometime between CD 9/10 because my OPKs keep looking more and more negative. I will probably buy some more just in case though. If I did O CD 10 then Im about 4DPO today.

Good Morning August testers! I hope this week brings lots of symptoms and BFP! Sending you ladies baby dust. This is our month. :O)

 

[Yoga_Girl]

I haven't been by in about a month. I had a rough time the last couple cycles, well, as of Friday, I was 7 days late, had what I believe to be IB (tiny brown spot so small I wouldn't have noticed it if I wasn't watching for AF) so I bought an hpt and was planning on taking it with fmu Saturday morning, but....I couldn't wait! I ended up poas late Friday night and got an instant, no doubt about it, can't even pretend you don't see it BFP!!!

Congratulations! So happy for you! What were your symptoms?

 

[Cheekygringo]

Well I have caught a cold, hubby doesn't want to come near me, so might be out again this month

Oh no :/ hope you get better soon!! are you expecting to ovulate soon?

 

[KrissyB]

Hi all - Catching up from the weekend!

Smiley - My DH and I have definitely had cycles where we burned out DTD. We'd BD a lot as soon as I had watery/ewcm but then I'd always O later than I expected and by then we'd kind of be worn out Sorry it's such a confusing month for you

Canada and Caringo - Welcome to the TWW!

Daisy - Sorry I can't be more help... I only have 8 day LPs, so 14 dpo is well past my range of expertise and I've never actually heard of ovarian drilling. Hopefully you get some answers (and hopefully it's a ) very soon! But if AF hasn't shown yet, don't give up hope!

Congrats Pink

Hunni - I hope you get some clarity soon too. It's been a rough month for you I do think that cyst can mimic a lot of other things, so I'm sure it's even more confusing than normal. But I agree with Mint - even if you don't temp, you can use your chart to track symptom spotting and that may help you identify some useful trends

Cheeky - Aww - Hope it's a quick recovery for him!

Yes I am close to O I think. Boo
