Crista, congrats!! Please keep us updated with news on you and your little bean! I'm so happy for you. Now don't be selfish and pa__s around all that baby dust!
Andesue, thanks. I don't feel very positive about this month, but it's still nice to have hope.
TTC, I too use FF to chart, and it's wonderful! It's really nice to be able to see what is normal for you and what is new. Last month was my first month, and it's been really nice to see that say, last month on 8 DPO, I had symptom X, and I had it on the same day this month. It really helps me to know what's new and what's normal. I also write things down in a notebook every day, like what time I got up, what temp was, what symptoms I have, etc. That helps me as much as FF cuz then I can flip through my little book and see things too.
As for me, today is 14 DPO (?) and still no spotting. I'm going to give it a few more days to see if af shows up before I test. My normal cycle is 34 days, but every once in a while I do get a longer one. I just don't feel it this month. I still get twinges of hope, but most of the time I just know it didn't work this time.
For everyone reading and posting, could you all do me a favor? Can y'all type in your stats for me, like age, # of TTC cycles, average length of cycle, how many pregnancies, etc.. anything you can think of. I tend to be forgetful if I don't have things written down, and there are too many people now for me to go back through and try to get everyone. I just like to keep everyone straight in my head. You all become almost like friends, and I hate it when I get confused.
As for me:
I'm 42
TTC 7 months
5 pergnancies, 1 live birth (he's 15 now)
34 day cycle

Congrats cristal!!! I'm so green with envy (and my dress)! How wonderful for you. The best of luck to you and your little one, keep us posted on your progress, we'd love to hear how you are doing now and again ^_^ ,
this is day 2 of full on af for me. Horrible cramps yesterday, but the normal no cramping today. Feeling pretty good, except for the depression of once again failing at this whole baby making thing :)

Pikapuka- don't feel bad. It always happens when u least expect it. When i got pregnant with my daughter i didnt even realize i was pregnant until i was almost 4 months (long story). The point is your young and it will happen weather your trying or not:)

TTC 2 months
I couldn't take the wait any longer so went to my Dr who confirmed I'm NOT pg this month. Obviously V disappointed as I thought I had all the signs, but I guess they're probably my normal monthly cycle signs. Until recently I've not paid any attention but in the past 2 months I've been over-a___lysing every twinge and the Dr told me to just relax and it'll happen...

Crystal! How wonderful!! Congrats! You didn't even think you were in the game this month and look what happened!! I feel especially happy for you because you have never been pregnant :)
Update: dpo 6...temp has stayed very consistent except for a dip yesterday; but I think 5 dpo is too early for an implantation dip. Thinking about testing at 10 dpo; thought I could hold out until 14, but who am I kidding! Not going symptom crazy though...at least not yet :)

Congrats Crystal!!! How exciting for you!! What were your symptoms? When did you test?
Well no period yet and I am on my 44 day. Still keeping my fingers crossed:) When do you all think I should test? I have had between a 40-45 day cycle. Should I wait another week? My body could be adjusting to the time diffrence too though. In Japan its a day later which I guess could mean I am on day 45.
age: 31
Months ttc: 5

Never Pregnant before :D
Stopped Birth control in january
32 days cycle
Dominican Republic
Well after I found out I´m preggo i have soo many symptoms, cramps in my lower abdomen, sore nipples (I had that as a first sign even before i found out i was preggo), bad night sleep, but most of all I am eating like a MAN! I eat, eat and eat, and there is enough space for more. I have 0 morning sickness, 0 cravings, and I can cry at any time of day.
Simone I tested on day 35 of a 32 day cycle it was definitely positive and it wasn´t FMU, maybe that can work for you.
I know i got pregnant fast but I just want to tell you that its worth the wait, I feel different, full, happy, motherly, grateful to God above all. Don´t be discouraged, when your time comes, it will be perfect for each one of you. I hope you all get your wishes come true the soonest possible its great!
Love, Cristal and her little love bean...

thanks april, it's so hard to believe that, although it did happen to me when i was 15 (that was my one preg that lasted 6 weeks) and here we are 8 months into trying to no avail! I know it'll happen when it is time to happen, I just don't want to wait anymore... neither does my step daughter. she REALLY wants a little sister. She's got 2 little brothers with her birth mother and every 3 days or so she'll ask me if I have a baby in my tummy... the pressure! ^_^ lol
Cristal, great to hear from you. Loved hearing your symptoms and would like to continue to do so if you have the time ^_^ I'm so excited for you! be safe, and take care.
update: well, still bleeding the normal af, but s_x drive skyrocketed yesterday. if only that happened when it's supposed to! temp has been steadyish, but it went up when i started af. well, that's it for now. Good luck everyone and baby dust to all.

Crystal- you have given me hope!!! I have heard that its impossible to get preggo with a 40-45 day cycle:( I am hoping everyone is wrong about that. Have your periods been normal after bc? How long were you on them? It seems like my whole system is screwd up. Do you have cramps like period cramps? I feel like I want to go out and buy a test, but maybe I should wait a little longer. Did you guys bd alot this month? Did you do ovulation tests?

I Just realized i haven't given an update in a while.
Well af ended about 5 days ago been BD for the past three days and i'm exhasted. but have to keep going till the 30th of this month just making sure I get in all the day this time. last time i only had s_x during the week of ovulation and it was every other day. so this time we are trying the everyday approch. im also interested in OPKs, mainly because ive been reading that you can ovulate early and get af on schedule or even not at all and still get af..... so confusing.
Phoenixk -have u tested yet? im anxious for you.
Pikapuka- keep your head up.
and the same to all the ladies out there......BABY DUST!!
