Never mind! I got my little "happy face" this morning, which put a big "happy face" on me! Guess I'm just going to O late this month!


Ladies, I'm starting to worry about this cycle -- I don't know what's going on. I've gotten positive OPKs on CD 14 in my last two cycles. It's now CD 18 and I haven't gotten one. I've been POAS since CD 10 (I'm sooooo tired of holding "it" and scheduling my bathroom trips throughout the day!).

Some confusing things about this cycle....

1. My OPK testing was messed up on CD 13. We were going out for the entire morning and much of the afternoon and I forgot to bring my test. So, instead of testing at 11:45 (which has been a good time for me to get positives in the past), I didn't test until 3:30 (which was a complete and utter waste). I had tested the previous night around 8:15 (negative). So, I could have missed the LH surge entirely, right?

2. CD 13 and CD 14: I might have had EWCM or it could have been the leftover semen from the previous night's BDing -- the "goo" didn't appear until late morning/early afternoon......twelve hours after BDing. I entered it in to FF as EWCM, but maybe I'm wrong about that.

3. On CD 15, I had a huge temp drop, lots of EWCM (undeniably EWCM as we had not BD'd the night before) and some twinges on my right side.

4. I had a horrible night's sleep on Christmas Eve (CD 16). I tossed and turned and never got a solid three hours of sleep. My temp for CD 17 (Christmas Day) was unreliable, which is why it's been recorded but discarded.

5. I've been watching my temps carefully, and while they've gone up, they haven't skyrocketed like before. I've also gotten pretty dry (could be from my cycle or it could be because I've been limiting my water intake because I have to hold my urine throughout the day).

Have I O'd and FF just hasn't given me my CH yet? Did my body gear up for the O and then not do it? Should I keep testing for a positive (and spend more money on this cycle)? Or do I just say "to heck with it" and try to salvage the rest of my Winter Break (I've already spent the first week of break stressing out over this) and just try to BD every other day?

I just don't know what to do. Any thoughts? (And thanks for reading this long post!)

Glad to hear you got your happy face

YAY for your happy face!!
