[Chunksta]

Hey everyone i thought id post this instead of posting a new thread..
i need advice as im going insane thinking about it and trying to figure it out

i Oed on cd15 due to the +opk that i took on CD14 and i got O pain on cd15 from 9.30 am til about 4-5pm but my my ff chart says i also o'ed on cd15 due to the +opk test but my temp on cd15 and cd16 stayed the same when it should have gone up meaning i could have o'ed on cd16 and not on cd15 meaning my sway is up S*** creek this month
My temps are still pretty low no where near as high as last month and basically the same as pre-Ouvlation
oh i just want to cry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i am having a few cramps here and there and my nipples are abit sore with stabbing pain but its most likely AF symptoms
Can someone please have a look at my FF and tell me what they think?? i dont have cross hair on their either which is strange being 4DPO

Looks like you could have o on cd 16..

Chunksta, are you sure your opk was definitely +? Just asking, because I got one a week before I actually Oed that looked *pretty* + but then a week later I got a true + one. Your temps would definitely go up afterwards. Hmmmm....I don't know, I would say you either did O when you think you did (listening to your body's cues are the best way to know!) or your body tried and got close but didn't release and egg and will soon. Sorry this is confusing, I know how frustrating it is!

[LolaInLove]

Skrimpy and begonia, I agree.....it's hard just not knowing which is the path of least heartache. I also think it would be fun to not find out the gender and have a surprise at birth, especially since this is my last and I've never done that.

[Zivic-Bubac]

Zivic, I forgot to comment on your DH rant! I know how annoying that is.....my DH, bless him, is 38, which is by no means old, but I think he is one of those guys whose sex drive is naturally pretty low. I mean, when we first were dating and had sex, it was higher, but that is the fun stage, right! But, he NEVER initiates it, and when he does, it's because I've been making snide comments about it and he's trying to make up for his lack of interest. I fear sometimes it's because I've gained weight on this boy diet, and as you all know, he is a ballet dancer, so his job consists of manhandling skinny ass ballerinas all day. So, of course, I'm a hefer compared to them normally, at my normal size 4-6!!! He assures me that it's not that and I'm beautiful, blah blah, and that he just has a way lower sex drive than me. Oh well. There's my low sex drive rant. And I know how it is to have to ttc on command with opks to make a baby with this kind of guy!!!! But BIG FX that you caught your egg with perfect timing on Friday!!!!! Oh, and FWIW, I had my DH take 75mg of DHEA and it did nothing for his sex drive...although he said he had more energy, etc.

Oh Lola huni you sure can make me laugh! Esp the part with skinny a$$ ballerinas
It's a relief I'm not alone...Yes, we too did have fun during early stage, and before actively TTC I haven't even noticed how very occasionally we were having sex...not that it was bothering me at all , but now it's a big deal.
It's so lame you guys are living across the ocean, I would love to invite you to a cup of coffee while our BOYS are playing
Common guys, I want to hear those +opk so that I have company for obsessing during 2WW

Skrimpy and begonia, Its hard to think which path to take. IN my case I did not want to find out as far along as possible. DH did not think its a big deal we should or not. He thought it would be fun to find out since we did not find out with our first and it was exciting in the delivery, mostly for my DH . This time, I thought they'd tell me only like around 20 weeks, so thats half way. So first half you are enjoying the pregnancy (with bouts of gender obsessions) and the second half you are either relieved or trying to come to terms. So I thought that was the best option for me.
Since this is our last we wanted to experiance everything inluding finding out before hand. I went to the scan completely unaware that there could even be a possiblity that they would guess. I really wished after I blurted out so causually, "sure" that I could have taken it back. It was best for me to find midway. But till then your mind could be be completly occupied on analyzing every symtom, even OWT and every crazy calender thats our there.

I did that for the first 2-3 weeks and then.. just re analyzed things and stopped obsessing cold turkey. It did prop up now and then though.

If you are tempted to sneak out and get that private scan you could totally blurt it out to DH at some point.

[Aqua]

Chunksta, Did you take another OPK at CD15. Its best to take it until it turns -ve to be completly sure. Sometimes there is a slow rise.

[begonia]

Oh Chunksta that is a tough one! I echo what some others have brought up, are you sure that OPK was 100% positive? And were you checking your CP/CM?

I had more re: u/s but am now required to go hold my sick DD. Back later...
