Cycle Buddies

Question

It's always good to have a friend that is right there along with you. I have somewhat irregular cycles so it might be difficult for me to match up with anyone.
But PLEASE...let us know where you are at and maybe some of us can find a buddy!! ☺

Thank you Jenna & QuinnsMomma... I will take the test next week. Yayyyy...

Quinns momma · Answer

I had a tiny bit of spotting at 12dpo with a huge temp dip on my BBT. Thought for sure AF was on the way but 2 days later still no AF and I got my BFP. So if it is true implantation bleeding it can occur anywhere from 6-12dpo.

JennaRie · Answer

Well if AF is not due to start until the 22nd, you could have ovulated around the 8th, which was a week ago. It takes something like 7-10 days for the egg to implant so it is definitely possible that your spotting is implantation bleeding! I'd wait till at least next Tues. or Wed. to test.

If you don't get a BFP this month, I recommend either tracking your BBT or using OPKs to pinpoint exactly when you're ovulating so it's not such a guessing game. Good luck!!

I spotted today in the morning but it stopped in some time. So, I am thinking I am gonna get a BFN this month. :(

Implantation bleeding shudn't happen this late right?

Yay to all of us. What is this Robitussin I keep reading about? Isnt that for a cold or something?

JennaRie · Answer

I'm going to keep taking Vitex (apparently it can take up to 3 months to work and next month will be my 2nd month on it) and I'm going to start taking evening primrose oil next cycle to help with CM. I talked to my hubby this weekend and told him I want to start trying next month and he said OK! I can't wait!!

I am currently on CD 7.  I have 24 day cycles so my projected window is CD 10-20.  I plan to try the Robitussin from those dayse everyday to see if it increases my CM.  I'm excited to be back in the game, especially after the weird experience I had at the beginning of this cycle.  Anyhoo, I went to see my OB last week to get the ok to start TTC and I'm really excited.  Hubby's response was Yayyy!!!  I want 5 kids...  lol    He's so silly.  So we're just having fun, not planning literally anything but not preventing anything.  If this month is my month, I'll be SO EXCITED but if I have to try again, and again, that'll be ok.  

WISHING ALL OF U STICKY PASTY THICK STICK TO YA RIBS... OR EVEN BETTER, YOUR UTERUS....YUMMY BABY DUST!!!   ewwww   lol

JennaRie · Answer

Don't get depressed yet! It'd be negative even if you were pregnant that soon after ovulation so that test you took means nothing :)

I think it's ok to work out as long as it's not excessive.

Gugu_Ash · Answer

Waiting for another week then... Every BFN is just increasing the depression...

btw, can i work out during this time?

I'm on CD 8 right now ( If you count CD 1 as first day of actual blood flow ) I was spotting all day for 2 days before she came on fierce. I should be ovulating the beginning of next week.

JennaRie · Answer

You are most likely ovulating 10-16 days before the end of your cycle, so it is probably happening later than you're thinking. 4 days ago was way too soon to test - I'd wait at least another week from now, maybe a week and a couple days.

Gugu_Ash · Answer

I am on a 35 day cycle (this changes depending on my stress levels that month; last AF - started on 17th Sept). AF expected 22nd - 23rd this month. I am not taking temps or getting ovulation tests done but I think I am 10dpo. When do you guys think I should take a test again? I took one 4 days back and it was negative. :(

JennaRie · Answer

I'm on CD23 and still no sign of ovulation. I don't think it's going to happen this month :( This was only my first cycle taking Vitex though so hopefully I'll start ovulating after a couple more cycles, if not before. I'm going to order some OPK strips for next cycle to see if maybe I'm getting the LH surge, but just not producing enough progesterone afterward to raise my temp. Good luck and SSBD to everyone else!

Heatherm4 · Answer

Good luck ladies. I hope more people post and each of you find a cycle buddy!!

wantinajellybean · Answer

Cycle buddies would be great!  I am on CD 9 of a 33 day cycle. My ovulation is supposed to be around the 13th.  

I've recently started charting my temperature and actually have a lady at work who has been showing me how to properly take my temp etc. She use to teach conception classes and was more than happy to show me the ropes. 

I have been of of BCP for over a year, but we haven't really been TTC until recently.  We are both really excited about one day becoming parents.

AmyG89 · Answer

I am on CD 32 of a normal 28-29 day cycle so I'm all screwed up as well. I have a feeling AF may be starting today though so I will keep you posted.
