February two week wait

[hsmom24]

I'm 5dpo, and I've been cramping since the day after O. Not sure if that's good, bad or neither, but I like to think it means something is going on. Only 5 more days until I test (as my DH reminded me lol).

Shel, I'm sorry that you don't think this was your month. I have to say, I thought the same thing that Kirsten said though; maybe things feel different because this one is a sticky bean? I sure hope so for you!

[kews]

Looks like I am probably 2DPO, will be confirmed if I get another temp rise. Really hoping this month is it. My boobs are a heck of a lot sorer than normal and can we say nausea

[shell2011]

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Kirsten Sore breasts are good "sign".

[kews]

Shel, before the VR I would get sore boobs so bad that I thought they would burst. I could not lay on them or anything. So I no longer have any idea what I will feel when I get those pink lines

[hsmom24]

Is 6dpo too early to test??? Yes you say??? Okay, what about 7dpo? lol I'm having a VERY hard time waiting this 2ww out. *pout*

[shell2011]

Ummm...maybe? I've heard of people getting their BFPs at 8dpo, though I know what you mean about the wait. I am not going to test this cycle. AF is due on Wednesday (my LP is 12 days) so I think I will just wait and see if she shows. All I have are dollar store tests and I never got a positive with them until 14 or 15dpo last time. I had bought a bunch to test out my hcg levels after my last m/c rather than go in and pay to get stuck with a needle on a weekly basis. If I was having symptoms, I'd probably get a FRER, but like I said before I feel nada.

temp dropped so cross-hairs went bye-bye EWCM went sticky so no clue what to think

[shell2011]

It is probably because you are missing two temps from earlier in your cycle.

DH and I went to Morimoto in Philly (I love Iron Chef) and it was excellent. I am pretty sure I'm out this cycle so I had a glass of wine and some sushi

[kews]

Shel that should not make a difference, most women do not temp during AF, I even asked about that and the FF staff said it is ok to skip temping then unless you O around CD9, then it can be screwy. If you look back at temps I have missed more than that and gotten cross hairs

[shell2011]

It made a difference for me when I first started temping last January, but if the FF staff says it doesn't matter, they know best.

[hsmom24]

Kirsten, is it because you now don't have enough temps above our crosshairs to accurately predict O? I'm certainly no expert, but your chart doesn't look like a clear O chart yet.

[kews]

yeah if I had had a temp over 97.5 today I would have had crosshairs, I do tend to do this fluctuating and all. Just frustrating since DH now starts work and my brother is here so TTC is gonna be tricky

[kews]

so according to the FF staff, it looks like I O'd on CD15 (when I had the cramps) and another high temp will give me cross-hairs for that day. Now to wait. I will be having a HCG beta done between 3/1 and 3/4 (they have to make sure I am not preg for my ablation)

[shell2011]

That is what I thought when I looked at your chart, Kirsten.

I am expecting AF tomorrow or Thurs. I think I am going to chart next cycle.

[kews]

Shel, even though it is frustrating sometimes, I like temping cause it gives you a good idea what your body is doing without a lot of medical intervention.
