Well, I was hoping for this month but I don't think it was my turn. I had expected spotting over the weekend but nothing ever happened. I got a little excited. I woke up this am and thought "Well, this should be the day of You-Know-Who or testing!" Then I went to the bathroom (TMI)-there is brown spotting when I wipe. Not in any other time, except when I wipe. How cruel is that?!
On to April I say!

Rebeca--I was wondering how you were doing...I'm still holding out hope for you as many women spot when they're pregnant. But, I understand your feelings as whenever this happens I feel like I've got to start getting mentally ready for AF and the next cycle.

Let us know how it goes! I expect AF on Thursday and if this month follow's last month's chart (as it has so far) my temp drop will probably be tomorrow.

Thanks Nickie
I'm disappointed but I think I stayed pretty realistic this month. I've yet to have a major temp drop like I normally have but I will anticipate it tomorrow am (as per the schedule). It kinda makes me wonder about the nausea- must have been DHs caesar mix after all! On the plus side I'll be able to make it until April and may still be there when the chicks hatch in the classroom. And, my cycle has reduced itself from 56 days last month to around 40 days this time around. A big plus!
You'll be in my thoughts Nickie. Hope that everything works out for you this month. Thanks for all the encouragement during my 2ww. You're a !

Both of your charts still look good to me!

Rebeca-Nickie is right...LOTS of pg women spot. I hope that's what it is. Keep us posted.

Nickie-I hope those temps stay nice and high!!!! Beautiful chart!!

Alana & Michelle--well, baby dust from grads never hurts, right?

Rebeca--how are you this morning?

As for me, my temp stayed high today, but didn't get any higher (same as yesterday). My LP may be getting longer (as this is only my 2nd cycle of BCP) or it may just take a big dive tomorrow. We shall see...

As an official POAS addict I tested this morning and it was BFN. Sometimes this all feels like playing a game that I don't expect to win. But hopefully we do "win" someday!

Good morning!
Nickie I'm still waiting for a big temp dip as well. I am now 16 DPO and my temp stayed the same as yesterdays which was lower than the average PO but not "low". Still nothing significant in the AF department either. I told myself last night that I would test if my temp didn't drop this morning. I tested and it was negative. I'm starting to wonder if my body isn't just playing along with what my brain wants!
Sorry to bring "non-positive" news girls. Pregnant woman may spot but I'm sure they wouldn't get a BFN at 16 DPO! This month will be tricky as DH is out of town all week, every week. I may be looking at August as my next hopeful month.
But, first things first. Ladies can you help me out here?: If my LP last month was 14 days, how long do I wait this month before getting frustrated? And how much spotting qualifies for a period?

Nickie, I'm still holding out hope for you. You are at 11DPO so it could still happen for you! Be sure to keep us updated. I'll be logging on to see how things are going.

Alana and Michelle, thanks for the encouragement. You two are great and look fantastic! I'm lurking on other boards periodically to see how everyone is doing. I'm so excited for you guys! Thanks again!

Best of luck to everyone!

Rebeca--cool that at least we are still at the same point temp-wise (i.e. waiting for the plunge). Here's my thinking--did you use OPK's to track when you O'd? Looking at your temps it is possible that you O'd a few days later as that is where you're shift got noticible? Just throwing that out there...

Anyway...fingers still crossed for all of us!
