Maybe baby...

Hi Nadine,

All the heartburn you're getting, especially after some good Mexican, yep, sounds like everything is looking good for ya, and we're certainly cheering for you. Good Luck and please keep us posted!

Thank you for your encouragement Dr. Q.! I am really looking forward to test this month, all the other months I used to dread it. Usually I would've tested about 5 or 6 times by 12 days past the day I thought I ovulated, lol! This month I have not had a urge at all and tomorrow will be cycle day 28, which I might make my first test day, since I don't exactly know when I ovulated, but by symptoms I am sure I have ( O twinges, EWCM, etc...).

I will def keep everyone updated!

Feeling naseau and hopeful... :o)

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I have NEVER EVER had heart burn before and I love me some spicy food, no matter where it comes from!

This far the HPT from this morning is negative... I'm really bummed out. But I guess since my cycles are crazy I'll just keep testing every 3 days until AF shows her ugly face. I hope it doesn't tho... Wish me luck...

Good Luck and here's some more....

Good luck to you, Nadine! :-) It is hard when to test when you don't know how many DPO you are in now. Are you also doing BBT? I have been doing that for the past two cycles and it really works. I use OPK in conjunction with my BBT. My BBT chart shows me what day I have ovulated. We're hoping for a positive test for you...but if AF shows, try charting your temps everyday. It may take a bit of sacrifice to do it around the same time every morning, but it really helps a lot in terms of pinpointing your ovulation day. Your ewcm can linger for a couple of days, so you really can't tell that you ovulated on the day when you got ewcm. I'll share my chart with you:

I ovulated on CD 18, and I got ewcm two days before I ovulated, then my OPK turned positive on that day. Since my temp spiked on CD 19, that makes CD 18 as my ovulation day.

Good luck, Nadine! ****baby dust****

Thank you all for the support and thank you Lexie for shraing your chart.

I did try to chart for a couple of months but I just got so confused on top of everything else, so I switched to Clearblue Ovulation tests, that show the LH surge and they worked out ok for me.

I am in the Army National Guard and at the moment I am working everyday as a soldier and getting up at 4 am to run 2 miles, just goes completely against my nature, lol... So I forgot a lot of times to take my temp. But now that hubby is leaving for a while and we won't actually be baby dancing I might be able to focus more on my BBT and get a good idea of what normals are.

I appreciate you all so much and I haven't given up hope for this month yet!

Nadine,

I just wanted to check in with you..I know your hubby must have deployed by now. How are you doing? We're here for you if you need anything!!!! :)
