I'd say that if you're O'ing "on time" and having super short LP's then it might be more of a premature failure of the CL. PM me anytime if you want more info on my struggles so far. I'd love to help you where I can!

i o 'late' also, and not with predictability. earliest around CD17, and regularly as late as CD26. the doc didn't ask me that stuff...


afm: got back from Original Pancake House - first time there for DH's birthday. YUM!!!! it was soooo delish. i had swedish pancakes with lingonberries. sooo tasty!

Well, headed off to bed. At least Monday is over.
This talk today makes me wonder if I should talk to a Dr. about my short LP. FF puts my average cycle at 26 days, and O on day 18, but it really does vary. Clomid messing with CM is scary, though, since I don't have that in abundance to begin with! I really don't like the idea of being on drugs, anyway, and since I did conceive DD, I feel like I should be able to do it again. That said, though we were not officially TTC, we BD'd on or the day before I O'd (at least according to FF) the last four months. I was hoping for an earlier O this month, but I'm on day 16, and no spike yet. Hopeful for tomorrow... so we will be BD'ing again tonight! I gotta catch it sometime, right??
Anyway, I am off, hopefully tomorrow will be a better day here.

pancakes.

Katie, I feel your pain... Before this PG, I was O'ing irregularly.. but late. Between CD 16&19, but my cycle was constantly 28 days, no matter when I O'd.

Brandie, we are WTTC until January DH and I talked about it tonight. Now that the D&C is done, I feel at ease & ready to jump on board. We are going to be charting "to avoid" through Jan, not trying, but not really preventing, and then we will see from there.

Jen I saw your request on FF.. I am not sure how to accept it

I've tried just about every test imaginable at this point LOL

I went through that same thing back in July/August. If that's true, you would only be 8dpo today. Sooooo, on that note, I'd go in for a blood test if you don't get a BFP or AF doesn't show in a week. That's just my opinion though!

I think you might be right I still "feel" pregnant but not getting anything on tests so I think I'm going to wait it out and see if I've started by this Friday or Saturday. Which would make me 12 or 13 DPO if I did and by then it really should show, shouldn't it???
