If you thought I was obsessed before...

just wait. I am in full force now!

I am so nervous/excited/anxious I have made myself nauseous with a tummy ache (I get this way when I am SUPER excited...last time was when DH and I first started dating

). Anyway....I was looking through pregnancy charts and mine is very similar to Erika's...175113 Ovulation Charts Yup, let my obsession really kick in...this may be a longer 2WW than my 3WW!

You are gonna be a mess over the next two weeks.

Let me say this... and it's not my intention to be a buzz kill, but be careful comparing your charts to someone else's. You have to remember that everyone's body is different and you can sometimes set yourself up for major disappointment when you start comparing your chart to someone's pregnancy chart. I learned that lesson the hard way.

As long as it's all in fun. You just seem very easily excitable and I would hate to see you build your hopes up only to be disappointed.

You are right!! You are by no means a buzz kill, you are honest.

I shouldn't be comparing my chart either, but I guess I am very easily excited (as you noticed!!).

Candace, Nikki is right about comparing charts, but I am right there with you because I was comparing mine as well. LOL Like she said, as long as it's all in fun, then we are ok!

I like to look at the chart gallery just to assure myself that other people have charts similar to mine and still end up preggo when I see that my chart has done something out of the ordinary. There are so many variations from person to person - it really makes me feel that our chart can only tell us so much...but even the most promising charts (example: Coley's last cycle!) can turn out to be ovulatory! But it is nice to have reassurance that you aren't out yet even though your chart might be atypical!

kbpeanut · #8 August 11th, 2009, 11:35 AM

Totally agree with not comparing charts...but I do it all the time on FF by searching for charts similar to mine

I know everyone is different, but whenever I have wacky things going on, it certainly does make me feel better to know that others are out there too!

I never compare my chart I'm afriad I will think "this could be it" and then be super upset if AF showed.
I really hope this is your lucky cycle and we see your BFP soon. I'm keeping my crossables crossed for you honey.

Dude! I think you O'd and I am so pumped for you! Can't wait to see your temp tomorrow

Well for what is worth I compare my charts all the time. When I got my bfp it looked like another bfp chart. When I do chart searches now I can't ever find a bfp chart that looks like mine so I think that might explain why I haven't gotten one.

I think your chart looks great but you really don't get a good idea about things until you are a few more days past ovulation. The follicular phase doesn't really give you a great idea but if you start seeing your post o temps matching up with a bfp chart I think it is a good sign. It doesn't necessarily mean you will get a bfp but it sure beats staring at charts that look nothing like yours!

CandaceDianne · #12 August 13th, 2009, 05:31 AM

My obessing has actually calmed down alot, believe it or not. I think I am just relieved I actually O'd!!

But I double checked our charts again and its almost identical from the day pre-O, to O, to post-O pattern...so far. Now, I am NOT getting my hopes up by any means, its still VERY early in the game. I just find it ironic. Also, if you look at our BD timing, its the exact same...
