    I had some trouble uploading the most recent TWW thread because of all the fabulous posts - so I figured it was time to start a new one.

    My update:

    CD: 29, DPO: 10-12.

    "Symptoms": bloating, minor cramping, some in my low back which makes me think AF is on the way. Crying at every sad commercial, movie or story I read.

    I was on a regular 28 day cycle until last month when it bounced up to 32 days. AF should be here on Thursday, if I'm at 32 days again. But I'm hoping she either comes early or not at all because it's our 1-year anniversary this weekend and AF would put a serious cramp in my style.

    I should be in the TWW next week but I'll jump in here and hang out anyway because it's what I'm thinking about anyhow  :) Your symptoms sound really good! Are you taking temps at all? Good luck!

    I'll be on both boards then : )

    CD23 and 8DPO.  AF due Saturday.  Been a little crampy and have had low back pain.  Also very tired the past few nights.  These symptoms could all be attributable to anything, though, and honestly I get kinda crampy occasionally during my TWW.  The only odd thing is that I've been constipated which basically never happens to me. 

    I'm definitely not testing until Friday (12DPO)...but I may not test at all unless AF is late.  Last month I tested on 11DPO and was devastated by the BFN and then devastated again when AF showed up right on time.  Also, I'm feeling generally pessimistic this month for some reason so don't have any urge to test.

    Good luck to everyone!

    I'm glad you did this. I have had ghost pages on that other thread since page 5:) 

    I'm on CD 36. My average cycle length is 43 days since a miscarriage. 

    I am 11dpo and I'm having more symptoms than ever. So I'm either pregnant or fantastic at controlling my body through my mind and may need to be committed after this. 

    Some of them are TMI for sure :) Gas (I never have gas and I am farting up a storm), I have been cramping since 3dpo, my nipples started to get tender yesterday, I have had bouts of dizziness for the last 4 days, yesterday I was so nauseas every time we got in the car, I'm exhausted but can't sleep, I have increased salivia production, which I didn't even know was a sign of pregnancy until my DH told me (I keep spitting and drooling on him LOL), and I have had some strange things happening to my cervical fluid. 

    It's a lot and if I'm not pregnant I know I'm going to be super sad this time since everything is pointing to a positive, however with both of my pregnancies that I miscarried I never got a positive pregnancy test until AF was late, so I'm holding off testing now since seeing the BFN makes me upset every time.

    @winniewolf: I'm feeling super pessimistic too, so you're not alone.

    I'm not temping yet - I figured I'd wait until we hit cycle 5 because it would give me something I could "do" to make a BFP happen. If I can hold out long enough, I'm going to wait until Sunday to test. But if AF doesn't come on Thursday, realistically I'll POAS on Friday. Patience is not my middle name.

    @mwitter80: LOL - I hope you don't have to be committed! And your symptoms sound great. I was farty last night, but attributed it to DH's cooking. Although he wasn't farty, and usually it doesn't take much to set him off!

    Oh and I also had creamy CM on Saturday. Although I'm not good at checking it regularly, that seemed weired to me. We'll see!

    Okay, so this is the first time I've posted on one of these posts, but here it goes.....

    CD 27, not sure DPO.

    This cycle has been really weird for me and I'm always very regular. My cycles are usually 24-25 days longs, with the longest one I've had in a year being 28 days. I usually ovuluate anywhere from day 8-13, very early in my cycle.

    This month, nothing is the same. I had posted a post about this under a pseudo-account, but now just decided to come out and post on my usually account. I feel different, I'm ususally never late. And, my temps are still elevated. Yesterday, I had the highest recorded temp I've ever had in a year's worth of charting, this morning still pretty high for my normal temp area.

    I'm either getting ready to have the mother of all periods, which will not be fun for anyone or I'm getting ready to be a mother. Smile

    Oh, how I hope it's the second one. (fingers crossed)

    I'm going to try to be strong and not test until later this week. I don't know if my temp will drop or will continue to stay high. Just on pins and needles until I find out.

    @mwitter80: Thanks! You, too! I've found myself analyzing everything. I didn't know that increased salvia could be a sign of pregnancy! Yesterday, I had to keep swallowing all during church (while I was singing) because I felt like I was going to drool in front of everyone. I have never had that problem. Then, someone told me I looked like a was totally drained after one service. I've been falling asleep on the couch, but then restless when I get to bed. My dog seems to cling more than she has in the past. So many symptoms. Or they could be major PMS symptoms.

    Going.to.go.crazy.

    I'm on CD 26 and 9 DPO. I was a little disappointed this month b/c according to my chart, we missed our window. I ovulated earlier than normal and we BD the day after...darnit! So I'm also feeling pessimistic...I've never had a cycle this short either (since coming off BC), so we'll see!

    @mwitter80: I hope your symptoms are right on! Sticky baby dust to you!

    @Mrs. Bonnie Blue: Agreed! I keep telling DH that I'm either super pregnant or going to having one gigantic nasty AF and he might want to take cover! 

     

    @2PeasinaPod: Well that stinks! However, you never know anything is possible. Cycles changing around is the worst!

    @mwitter - Sounds like folks are having some good symptoms!!

    @2peas - you just never know!  maybe your egg hung around for a bit after ovulation.  also, great news that you are having a shorter cycle!

    @goldi - I think I'm trying to play reverse psychology on myself.  the past few months, I was really positive (and last month was convinced I was pregnant).  we know how that turned out!

    @msbonnie - welcome to the thread and good luck!!

    I am officially out. My spotting had stopped yesterday, bought a test last night. Woke up and took the test this morning (BFN) and then later this morning AF started:(

    I was unsure, I had so many little things that were similar to my pregnancies with my girls that made me think it might be positive and I was late CD 31 (usually 28)

    I guess atleast I know and can move on to the next cycle!

    Today is 14 DPO for me! AF was due today and I have had cramps for the last 3 days but no AF. Temp was still high today so I plan to test in the morning unless AF makes an appearance between now and then. Good Luck to everyone!!

    @Mrs. Bonnie Blue: Welcome to the madness!

    @Mrs Green Grass: Fingers crossed that this is your month - I've been following your posts on a couple of the other threads.

    @winniewolf: Gotta love reverse psychology "if I convince my uterus that I don't think I'm pregnant, she'll totally give me a BFP". Sad thing is, being pessimistic has always seemed to work for me. When I gave up hope that DH was going to propose, BAM there's a ring. Nope, not going to get this job BAM job offer. DH thinks it's so weird that I've wired myself to believe that if I think positive thoughts, I'm not going to get the results I'm hoping for.

    2 DPO here!  I ovulated late this cycle (late for me at least, CD 20).  I go for bloodwork around 7 DPO to see how my progesterone levels are... since I've been spotting during my luteal phase for several cycles.  If I actually did ovulate, we timed it pretty well this month, so here's hoping!

    Good luck to everyone!

    I am CD 16 and waiting to O. I was on holidays last week so I wasnt able to keep up with the temps but started as soon as we got back. First cycle was 42 days, second was 37 days and so far this is looking like another long cycle. Oh well, see what happens 

     

    Good luck and congrats to all of those who got their BFP!

    I'm 11dpo and am still getting BFNs.  My chart looks good, lots of cramping and bloat.  With each day, I get more worried this isn't our cycle.  Again.

    CD 40!  DPO???  This is my first cycle post-m/c so it's been a little long and weird to say the least.  I don't really know when I o'd.  I saw my Dr on the 24th who said I was 'about to ovulate', but since then no AF and only BFN, so I'm thinking I must have o'd later than that.  I can only rationalize about 1 wk after I saw her, any later than that just does not make sense to me.  So, tomorrow is 14 after my appt, and I will re-test on Saturday if still no AF.

    Lots of luck lades!!!  Let's hope September is our month!

    add me into the mix! We are CD28, 6DPO. My chart does not look very promising this month. However, I don't know because we got a puppy this month too and I have not had one good night's sleep (hoping I can use that as an excuse anyway!).

    Good luck to everyone!!

    The best laid plans . . . so, I hadn't planned on testing until AF was late. She's due Thursday. So of course I tested this morning using the HPTs that came with my Wondfo OPK. I did 2 because I've had issues with the OPK not giving any results and it looked like the first test was going to be "broken".

    Results -

    First test: nothing - no control line or anything.

    Second test: control line and what looks to be a faint second line. So, if Wondfo tests follow the same premise of "pink is pink", then I think I might be pregnant. CRAZY!

    I definitely walked around in a circle for awhile, thought about telling DH, but decided to wait because I'm going to test again tomorrow using the Wandfo strips and if I get another faint line, I'll splurge on a good test to use on Thursday. Fingers crossed that today's pink wasn't a fluke!

    @Goldilocks1107: Fingers crossed!!!! And toes!!!!1

    I've decided that I'm probably going to start some time this week. I have a wonderful friend who has been nothing but supportive, but she was kind of preparing me today for 'what if I get my period'. She thinks that I'm reading into every symptom that my body is feeling as a sign that I'm pregnant or that I'm trying to 'find' symptoms. Does that make sense? Right now, I just want to know either way so we can move on. If we are pregnant, that's awesome--wasn't planned, but I'll take it. If we are not, at least we know that we are going to start trying for real.

    I just want to know. Period. That's all.

    @ Goldi - sounds like a positive to me!  Def spring for a good test for Thursday!  Keep us posted as I know you will!!

    @ MissBonnie - a common problem with the TWW!  Hope you get the result that you want!

    Nothing really to report here.  I'm 9DPO and no real symptoms.  I have been super tired in the evenings but I feel like that's such a subjective symptom.  Maybe my bbs look bigger?  Ugh, I just want this so badly at this point.

    @winniewolf: Thanks - and the reason I decided to test today was because my bra cups were overflowing this morning, and they had been getting smaller after I went of BC.

    Here's hoping for a BFP for you!

    @winniewolf: I'm a little nervous. When I get bfn's it really effects me negativley. I would rather wait and be closer. I'm 12dpo and for me it's a little too close. So I'm going to wait until Friday I think. That's the day AF is due.
