Jellybean: Good luck! Hopefully things are right back on track after the pill. It's hard not knowing where you're at in your cycle!
monkers: I'm really sorry to hear about that monkers
Are you doing okay?
mommatoB: I hope you don't mind me asking, but when do you usually start taking clomid? I've read about taking it, but I never understood how the timing of it worked. Hopefully the antibiotics didn't change anything for you!
Katy78: Keeping my fingers crossed for you! Hopefully this is your month
We're in a 2 bedroom house, and it's cramped. I have a boy and a girl, but since they're still really young, they're sharing for right now. I suggested to DH that we switch rooms and give them ours since it's a little bit bigger, but he won't budge. We'll eventually be turning the (tiny!) dinning room into a bedroom, probably for our youngest at some point. It'll probably take awhile since we have to figure out where we're going to eat! Our schedules are so busy right now that we just don't have time to re-arrange and set it up as a bedroom yet. I'm hoping we can move some day down the road.

I'm kind of in and out as school is chaotic right now and kicking my butt.
Today is CD 16. CP and CM are confusing the heck out of me. CP is pretty much all over the place. It was low on CD 11, but has been alternating between high and medium otherwise.
CM hasn't been very easy to read either. Nothing seems to quite fit. TMI: I've had "sticky", but it doesn't match the typical definition of sticky. Most days have seemed watery, but that doesn't seem right considering the timing of the cycle. For those I've either not been charting it or charting it as "dry" (thinking maybe it's just normal moisture???). There are 2 days I did chart it as wet since it really did seem like it, but I still have my doubts that it actually was. 2 days it was like 50% creamy, 50% watery, so cm seems to be pretty useless to me right now.
I've been doing OPKs since CD 5 - I only started that early because it made me feel like I was being proactive and working towards something and eased some of the impatience
They've been negative so far (even now at CD 16, but I'm sure that's normal for me - and I may not even ovulate anyway).
My temps are wonky thanks to an inconsistent sleep pattern and wake time. There's not a ton I can do to change that right now, but I'm going to try to start setting an alarm for earlier in the morning and just going back to sleep if I need to. They are are all over the place it's insane. Hopefully it's not too late to try and get them a little more accurate, and I'm not sure if getting up earlier will be possible or not.
I also started using Fertile Focus. I started getting some ferning yesterday. I'm not sure if it's partial/transitional ferning or full ferning, though I'm guessing it's partial/transitional. No idea. Not sure how accurate it is and whatnot, but hopefully that means I'll be seeing some positive OPKs soon, and hopefully ovulating.
