Pretty sure I am at CD1 and need a buddy :(

Stake - I also want to take a break if I don't get a BFP this cycle. I try to space my kids out now, because we have 3 birthdays and Christmas all within 30 days. There's a lot of spending around that time! We have 2 birthdays in July too. I would wait I guess 2-3 months as well, as I'd prefer the baby to be born Sept/Oct - then I'd probably stop again and wait for an April baby.

haha well hopefully we get our bfps!!! i hate seeing people post things on facebook about their pregnancies. this one girl was complaining about how nauseous she is today. I wanna kill her! ugh, i know its not right to be bitter....our turn will come!

 

[Ali33]

Where in CA are you coming to??
You guys can't quit and leave me alone!! lol.. My daughter is an Oct baby. I don't think I want to stop yet now that I found out when I am actually ovulating! lol..
I agree about the FB stuff. I would love to be nauseous right now!!! Well you know what I mean lol

 

[Stake]

haha! well I'm thinking that once I say I quit its when itll happen! we are going to temecula and LA. I'm exited bc I've never been to CA

 

[Ali33]

Come visit me!!! LoL

 

[Ali33]

Yay it is finally Friday! Also FF has finally confirmed my ovulation.
Anyone still having cramps? I am still crampy. I was having like weird stabbing /pulling pains. I swear it is the soy!

 

[havestar]

I was yesterday.

So I temped today. It was 96.95. So a .14 drop from yesterday. My CM was creamy, but lots of it and stretchy.. like not 3" stretchy, but like it was sorta mixed.

EDIT -
Ok so I took my temp a little early today, at 6:40. I took it yesterday at 7:10. Should I use the adjuster temp (97.05)? Or should I just use what I have?

EDIT AGAIN!
So, I also told my husband that if I don't get pregnant this cycle he's going to buy me a Persian cat.

 

[Ali33]

Lol what did he say to that??

I personally would go with the adjusted one even though FF advises against it. I had to do it the other day. Yay you finally signed up! lol.. I am not sure if you O'd yet. Those are like my temps before O.. Maybe your cm will turn into ewcm? My creamy cm never stretches..

 

[havestar]

LOL in so many words, ok.

Well I already had the EWCM a few days ago.. like..

CD11: Creamy
CD12: EWCM
CD13: EWCM
CD14: Watery
CD15: Mixed in AM, Super Watery in PM
CD16: Tons of EWCM in AM and early PM, Creamy late PM
CD17: Creamy mixed w/ Stretchy

It's weird, b/c I got EWCM then Watery - but I think that's usual for me. I just see it the other way around a lot. The change to creamy last night was like a major change. No EWCM in there. So I'm stumped!

I think I might have a naturally low temperature. /shrug

 

[Ali33]

Yeah could be. I was surprised when I started temping that mine were so low. I see some that are like 98 before O and I am never 98 even after O. Got close but not quite..
What day were we going to start testing again?

 

[havestar]

I will start testing whenever you guys want to, BUT..

I think I'm ovulating NOW. LOL I've been saying that the last 5 days so DH keeps rolling his eyes.. but there's a LOT more pain right now, left side.

 

[Ali33]

lol let's hope we see a temp spike! I am thinking i might test on 9/13/12. I willl be 9dpo then. I never tested early like I have said before but I figure I might as well have fun with it lol.. I am not stressing out this month at all. It happens it happens, if not I am not going to be too upset. Especially now knowing when I actually ovulate!!!

 

[havestar]

FX for you! I think you'll get it. Positive thinking!!

I'm also trying not to stress too much - by looking at cats instead of ttc forums (except this one).

HOLY CRAP! Just went to the bathroom and I had TONS of CM. We did BD earlier, but I did the dump and jump and it's been almost 6 hours. It's all lotiony.. like watered down lotion and doesn't have the semen+cm smell (TMI!). FX this is a good sign! Also, I know I'm not *supposed* to check my temps during the day, but I have been. The last three days my temps have been 97.4, each day, throughout the afternoon and evening. I thought it was so strange to have a consistent daytime temp. But TBH I sit in the same exact spot the entire day and just get up to pee. So other than breathing and typing, I don't do much to change temps. Well now it's 98.4. Now I just have to wait till tomorrow to see if it really did rise.

 

[Ali33]

I'm thinking positive, just not stressing lol...

I am seriously allergic to cats. Actually all animal fur except for dogs which is weird. We have 2 German Shepherds and a chiweenie lol

 

[Ali33]

I totally missed the last part of your message lol.. Is the cm stretchy? Why can't our bodies make up their damn minds? Higher temp is a good time if it has always been the same...

 

[havestar]

Aw I think GS are so pretty!

No it changed completely. It's like watered down lotion. So strange..

 

[Ali33]

Well watery is still fertile!! I am anxious to see if your BBT spikes!

I love my GS girls! They have always been my favorite dogs. We rescued all 3 of them. All great dogs.

My cm is creamy and I have a bunch. Not sure if that is normal for me or not lol.. I wasn't checking everything last cycle like I am this cycle. TMI but when I go pee I wipe and can feel some fall out. Gross lol..

 

[havestar]

I've heard increased cm is a secondary sign of pregnancy. I think if it's abnormal that you'd have a lot during LP it might be a good sign! I read somewhere that it's because of the increase in estrogen - whereas normally there's an increase in progesterone during the LP, since you conceive, the estrogen increases for uterine blood flow.

 

[Ali33]

I would like to hope so but it is still so early. Implantation wouldn't have even taken place yet. What's funny, even though I am in the 2ww I am so calm about it all! I guess last month completely drained me, especially being so late and all.

 

[havestar]

Yeah, last month sucked! I hope that at the very least, I get AF on time. I don't ever want to have a long period again!

Uhh.. so my cm has changed AGAIN. HOLY EWCM, it was so stretchy, like 6". I've never ever seen anything that stretchy.. and completely clear. How the F can CM change over the course of like an hour?
