Long Irregular Cycles 'r' Us

[BizyBee]

Blonde, how are you getting on? Hope never arrived.

Quail, hope the dreaded 2WW isn't driving you mad.

Erised I'm glad you are gonna be getting to move soon!

Yeah, the caught me. I was actually 99.99999999999% sure I didn't O last cycle so seeing her was kinda good. Means we get to start all over again! Although she could be a little kinder. It's really really light, but I'm cramping...a lot.

Bizy when do you go to the doc?

 

[blondeNklutzi]

Oops and then I go back and reread and it says next cycle.

Hope this means your hormones are fixing themselves!

 

[Erised]

Estate Agents called again, we definitely have the place! We'll be moving in on Wednesday =)
We were hoping to get the papers signed this weekend as our guarantor needs to sign as well and he works weekdays 9 til 5. But the woman dealing with it has taken the week of until Wednesday, and the others aren't allowed/willing to deal with it. So we've gotta wait until Wednesday and ask Rich, the guarantor, to leave work half an hour early. He didn't mind ... so we're moving in less than a week! =D

This it kinda of typical for an annovulatory cycle. I had 2 of my 6 cycles whilst TTC without ovulating and my periods were very light and crampy.

my normal period is normally really heavy in comparison.

Erised! Great news on the new place! you know what they say new home new baby! lets hope there's one in the pipeline for each of you patient ladies!

Hi everyone. Haven't been on in a few days - have a week off work and having been painting and doing bits a home.

Well still no and no signs that she's on her way. So don't know whats going on there - but only 2 more weeks til I see the fertility dr.

Congratulations Erised on the flat. It's so exciting when you move into a new place - good luck with the move.

Am trying to be a little more positive at the moment - PMA and all that and not thinking IF but WHEN I have a baby!

Well at least I can have chocolate from Sunday - that's always a good thing (I haven't had any since end Feb - I'm not religous or anything but decided to give it up for lent).

Hope everyone else is ok. X

 

[BizyBee]

Congrats Erised!

Aly, I am with you! PMA PMA... It WILL happen for us!

 

[PrayerfulHope]

*sigh*

when should I test if I don't know how long of a cycle I should expect? don't want to waste $$ on negative pg tests...

11 dpo today

 

[BizyBee]

Prayer,
A person with a normal cycle would expect AF around 14dpo. Some people get positives at 11dpo, others don't show up until later. If you're concerned about money, then give it a few more days before testing. Good luck!

 

[blondeNklutzi]

PMA!!!! Lol. Why does it seem like my cycles draaaaaaaaaaaaaag now that we are TTC? I used to love it that I don't get periods very often. Now it makes me wanna cry.

 

[BizyBee]

I hear ya Blonde! If we weren't TTC, it'd be great to go 50+ days between cycles.

 

[quail]

hi im on 5dpo not alot to report except im getting some cramping not sure what it is.xx

 

[Erised]

My temperature has dropped a bit, and it's obvious to me now that it's not an ovulation pattern. My throat however, has suddenly come back in full force again so today I sound like, according to my husband, a lumberjack. Ta darlin'

So, even though I'm still pretty early on in this cycle (ah, you can tell something is not right when CD29 is 'early on in the cycle') I know it's going to be another long one.

Aly, just noticed the anniversary ticker. I hope AF won't come around to ruin it! She's been gone for so long now, she might as well stay away another month (or 9 )

 

[quail]

well im 6dpo today and still getting cramps wonder what it is?my last lutel phase was 11 days so shouldnt be witch this early hope eeryone is well.xx

 

[BizyBee]

It may be a good sign quail!

Erised, hope your throat feels better soon. I agree, it's crazy that we think day 29 is "early"!

 

[drakey]

hi huns glad things seem to be going well with you all, im head up to cd60 now with no af and starting angus today! sorry not been around in a while xxx

 

[blondeNklutzi]

Hopefully its a good sign quail!

 

[Erised]

My temperature dropped back down to normal again today, so I filled in a - on OPK's on the date FF thought I had ovulated. Just because I'm 200% certain I didn't, and I don't like seeing the 'x DPO' on my ticker when I know it's not true.

I've only got a month left to go before my next gynae appointment. My weight loss last week didn't happen, I lost 0 lbs. Completely my own fault for slacking, I know. By the time my gynae appointment comes around I'm looking to have lost around 15lbs total so far. If he dares comment along the lines of 'Oh, you're doing well on your own so just keep at it I'm sure you'll ovulate in no time' I'll have his head off! DH has already said it's not going to happen as the gynae said we'd look into clomid or at least metformin. And DH also said that if he doesn't offer metformin he'll ask for it for me, and if it's not given we'll demand another gynae as he didn't come true on his word. I'm glad he'll be with me, as I'm a big wimp and would let the gynae walk over me. But it will be a year next month, and I'm sick of not even having a -chance- to fall pregnant like most other ladies.

At least we're moving out on Wednesday! =D
Really looking forward to that, quite worried about all the bills we'll be getting and all. But I'm sure we'll cope just fine, and in return we'll have our own place. The freedom will be fantastic.

--Edit--
I copied and pasted the above from what I wrote earlier in my journal... now a little update

For the last hour I've had odd cramps, like very small period cramps. I just went to the bathroom and as I wanted to check CM I found quite a bit of old brown blood. It actually looks like my period will start soon, I am soooo confused right now. But thrilled at the idea that my cycles might be starting to sort themselves out. Could AF actually be on her away again, already? She's only been gone for about 2 weeks I think! Wow

 

[BizyBee]

Hmm Erised! That's interesting... Wonder what could be happening?

 

[Erised]

I'm still not convinced, but I'm actually bleeding properly at the moment. So I'm on CD31/CD1 ... wow! I told my MIL that AF caught me 60 days early. It didn't even dawn on me that she was on time!
