I think I O'd yesterday, March 1st..so the TWW begins now! I promised myself I wouldn't obsess this cycle and I am not going too. Tomorrow I start my one month of no sweets challenge [just for fun to see if I can give up sweets for a month]. I am also hoping once I get over this sickness thing I can start exercising again too. GL to all those in the TWW! My AF is due around March 13th if its a 28 day cycle..we shall see, last month AF showed CD 25!

Hey Kasey, good to see you here!
i see we are still right around the same cycles. Today is 3-4 DPO for me- i think. I used OPKs, but i am still confused. I had a positive OPK on CD 12 and another one on CD13, and then on CD14 i noticed EWCM, but I noticed it again last night on CD 18 ( i think).
We BD on cd 9, cd13, cd 16 and CD18. ( i made dh BD last night just in case i was catching the tail end of my ovulation)
i actually feel kind of good about this month for me ( which is probrbaly a bad sign, lol) When i got preggo with DD i thought there was no way we caught the eggie that month, i even drank in my 2ww, which is something i never do,but i was so sure that we missed it). We never get the every other day thing down, and we came pretty close to it this month, so its exciting for me.
So being positive seems like a jinx to me, lol.
AF is due march 13 or 14, not sure, ive been having 29 day cycles, but i also go AF at like 10pm, so i dont know what exactly to count my days as. oh well.
I hope this is both of our months!!

GL to you too Shannon! I am not to optimistic this cycle, I am thinking AF will show early again..I think my LP's are messed up! My prediction is I'll be calling the DR this month about my LP instead of seeing a BFP, but I guess I am not officially out til she shows. We've BD'd the last 5 days straight  I wanted to make sure I covered every day! ha!

5 days in a row should cover all your bases. And that is certainly more than we were able to do it, lol. How long was your LP last month? I hope you dont have a problem and that this is your month.
Ive been so crampy all day, and i dont know what it could be from, other than maybe BDing the last few nights, but i usually dont get like this, so im actually kind of excited at what that COULD mean. ( i know it very well could mean nothing at all, lol) Who knows though. I know with DD i didnt notice anything out of the ordinary, except the day before i tested ( which i was already late, i started to get super bad moodswings, and heartburn. But other than that i felt completely normal.
I hate the 2ww, how have they not found a way to find out immediately after! ARGH.

Yay for crampiness..in all my other cycles I *thought* had I PG symptoms but never turned out that way...I haven't felt a thing this cycle, except the day I O'd I was a little crampy since then nothing
My LP was 9 days, the one before that was 10 days. Although maybe I am calculating wrong too, who knows!!! All I do know is I got a BFP with Josiah @ 9 DPO - I had gotten a blaring OPK on Aug 22nd and then a light BFP on FRER on Aug 31st. So who knows, maybe I'll end up testing on March 10th, it'll be hard once next week rolls around for sure.

Well now im just overly confused. I just went to the bathroom to find a huge glob of EWCM, i guess i didnt even ovulate yet  i never ovulate this late, so i just dont know what to think. Im on CD 19 today. Maybe this is just going to be a really long cycle. HMMM....
I guess we will be BDing again tonight.

Maybe you already O'd and just have extra CM? I hope thats the case! Have you O'd this late before? Are you using an OPK? It is frustrating I know!! I know I've O'd already but still feel like I am "leaking" and have discharge!?

Looks like I'm in the same boat as the two of you. I am expecting AF March 12-13. We BDed every other day for like almost 2 weeks just to make sure we covered our bases. So hopefully this is the month. Last month was my first TTC and I was using commercial lubs! Little did I know they killed off all the sperm and didn't let the swim. So this month we switched to pre seed. Hopefully this is the month for all of us!

I have heard nothing but good things from Preseed, so good luck this month!
as for the EWCM, it was a huge glob, i just cant imagine it being the leftovers or extra. No i never ovulate this late, ive always been around cd14. who knows though. I stopped taking the OPKs when they went negative again, i think on CD15. i figured i was gearing to O and my surge was over. Like i think i said before ( not sure, lol) i had a little bit of EWCM on CD17- which spartked that BDing session, so i guess its possible that this was just what was left over. But todays was EWCM- thats for sure, it was so stretchy and perfect and if DH was home, i would have jumped on him right there!
Ugh this is so frustrating, i was finally feeling good and confident and feeling like this cycle might go somewhere and now i am more lost than ever.
i guess all i can do is BD tonight and see what happens in the next few weeks.
I am still crampy today, so i wonder if it is just ovulation cramps that ive been feeling??

FYI, I had the same clear discharge this afternoon Shannon..I am not sure what to think, I checked my cervix and it feels soft but closed..I have been battling a sickness the last 5-6 days so I don't know if I am having any PG symptoms or if its just my cold..

Hmmm...i know i posted about this, and someone told me that they get ewcm at times other than just ovulation, so i guess its possible that i did O when i thought i did. I dont know.
Maybe this is good signs for us kasey!! Im really trying to not get my hopes up, but i want this so bad.
Although, my cramps and backaches and excess CM is all gone now.
i dont even know what to think, next week just needs to hurry up and get here.
im trying not to look at "symptoms" becuase i didnt have any when i got preggo with DD, but then again, my cycles before i had her were nothing like they are now. So who knows what i will feel like the next time i get pregnant!

I hear ya..I have been working on trying to get a work-out in on a daily basis and do other things to keep my mind busy..I can definitely say I am anxious for when AF will make her appearance again.

I had EVERY symptom last month..I thought for sure I was Pregnant!! I was totally bummed when AF came, a day late, but it came..totally shocked me. Now everytime I have a symptom I won't know what to think..because I thought for sure last month was my month.

OMG! I am going nuts. I want this month to be the month SO BADLY! I know im only on cycle 2, and i could be here for a while, but i just want it this month. I want to be pregnant again!
AAhhhhh! I feel like im going nuts over here over anyalyzing everything. I have been so crampy all week. Im either imagining it, or its real. i want it to mean something, i want it to mean we caught the egg this cycle
Why are these 2 ww always so long!!
I am really hoping i ovulated when i did, becuase we DTD so much around then, and if i ovulated later ( cd19) we only DTD on CD19 and then that was it, becuase we have been so busy and tired and just havent felt like it since then!
I got pregnant so easily with DD, i just want it to be that easy this time, and we are already 1 cycle over what it took to concieve her! I just feel like i know so much more this time around, and im driving myself nuts because of it. When we concieved DD i hadnt joined JM yet, i Joined JM literally 2 days before i got my BFP, so i never had any of this time to worry about everything my body was or wasnt going through.
Anyone else feeling so anxious this cycle. i just hate the wait. I just want to know instnatly if it did or didnt work. lol im too impatient!

You can get EWCM even when not Oing. Some ladies even get it a little after Oing when pregnant. With my son I got so much of it around the time AF was due that I thought I was Oing late and it kept up until week 8 or 9. But then there are some ladies that just randomly get it after Oing. Good luck ladies.

Im due for AF around March 13 or 14th. But i have been having an odd cycle, so who knows when its due. Its possible, that you caught the egg....im relatively new to the TTC stuff, so im not 100% sure, but i hope you caught it!! SOunds like you did it enough!!!

Thanks so much for posting this. I have had another mommy tell me that you can get EWCM more than just around O, its just ive never had it happen, so its been throwing me off all cycle. lol
I made things worse for myself last night by taking an OPK ( just becuase of all the cm, i wasnt sure if i was just ovulating really late) and to my surprise it was blaring postive. So i waited 2 more hours to take it again, and it was even more positive. Then this morning i waited to use SMU and i can almost not even see the control line anymore the test line is so pink . SO i just dont even know what to think now. Am i ovulating late ( im on CD23 or a 28-29 day cycle)...could the OPK be picking up HCG instead now. AHHHH i just want this wait to be over. this cycle is so confusing.
i want to pick up a HPT but i just dont want to see that negative. And i am really only 9DPO ( from when i thought i was ovulating orginally, ugh)
