GB - so sorry hon. I'm right there with you. I've been cramping pretty hard for two days, even though AF might not start until this coming weekend. Pretty sure I'm out. How I hate this. I'm supposed to test so I can stop the progesterone pills, but I don't even feel like testing. Just the idea of seeing another BFN wears me out.

Blushing - thanks. I think that's what I'll do. FXd you see a BFP.

Hobbit - holy cow! Your numbers are awesome! Like blushing said, you might be carrying twins.

Blushing: thanks for asking about my son's sister. She is still at St. Jude. Right now her family is asking for no visitors since she is on a new chemo regimen and her body needs rest and she also needs time to let her body adjust. She is having lots of pain and trouble sleeping. She cut her hair short a few weeks ago but now the rest of it is falling out :( My son will go back and visit next weekend.

Nothing new to report for me this evening. I will update tomorrow depending on how my day goes.

gds3 - I've been following her on FB <3

Ladies, today FF said my chart looks triphasic starting on CD22. I'm on CD25, anywhere from 9-11dpo. I'm going with 11dpo. For the last two days I've had some pretty heavy AF cramps, and yesterday my back and legs were aching the way they do when she shows up - but she's not supposed to be here until Thursday/Friday. I went to bed thinking I might start during the night. When I took my BBT this morning, it was 98.2, the highest I've seen my temp.

My question is, is having a triphasic chart something to be a little excited over, or is this just a normal thing most women see? Is it a good thing that my temp went up again? Last month (the only other time I've temped), my BBT leveled out at 97.9 for 4 days, then started going down 2 days before AF came.

I'm not looking to get excited, just having never seen this before I wanted opinions. With my luck, I'm coming down with the head cold everyone else has had, and it's throwing my temps off.

Took another test this morning but bfn again.i still don't have my usual pms symptoms though. I've had some mild cramps today but nothing crazy so I dunno. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for a bfp on my bday!!

Angela - I hope you get your birthday wish! for you!!! I'm pretty sure I'm out this month, but I could still be proven wrong. No AF yet, but I feel like it's on the way any day now. Sucks!

Rebecca im excited! !!! From everything i have read it could go both ways but im still excited !!!
Fx for u dear!

Mylucky congratulations sweetie! Soooooo over the moon for u!

Blushing, u will not be the last girl standing!

Pcb, how r u?

Kot have fun!!
Christi how have u been?

Fx for everyone! !! I have been mia, taking a much needed mental break.
Lets see where the ntnp approach takes me!

mylucky - no worries about the tests, looks like good progress! they going to do a blood hcg on you?

gds - let us know what they say about testing!

blushing - that's the strange part, it's no where in my history other than like one person has type II diabetes, so i'd say it's only a hunch. if we continue to have issues i think i'll ask for bloodwork if she doesn't offer. glad the other females in your family were able to have kids! hoping we caught that egg too! so you'll hpt in a few days??

GB & rebecca - nooo, don't want AF! hope she stays away!!

rebecca - i'm somewhat new to temping so i'm not sure, but i think if anything it's a good thing???

angela - when's your bday again? hope you do get the bfp!!!

gvmdl - hope ntnp works so well!!!

AFM, CD16 (my day numbers may be off by 1). yesterday AM and PM had smiley face on the CB opk digital. I swear the PM lines looked darker. I have it in my image gallery. Had a huge temp jump from yesterday to today, and timing of the temp was about an hour difference, felt i got good sleep both times. had an ache in my right side when i woke up. as i got moving started to have horrid cramps in especially my lower pelvis. was so bad i broke down and took an ibuprofen (200mg). within 30 minutes felt tons better and went to the chiropractor and ran errands. called the doc office to update and found out ibuprofen can interfere with ovulation? oops. but hoping i already did it since my temp jumped nicely. got my DH's SA numbers, all are super stellar. just morphology was a tiny bit low (24% instead of 30) but since his total count is almost 60 million it's nbd. have had lots of ewcm this cycle and BD'd the last 5 days straight. we're exhausted!!! i figured we better BD today too to be safe, have to see if we still have the energy! ;)

Jan 17 this Friday is my birthday! AF is due Wednesday or Thursday so we'll see what happens!! It's just weird to me that I haven't had any of my usual pms symptoms I really hope that's a good sign.

@KARA! Congratulations! I am so happy for you. Praying for a sticky bean! Are you going to have HCG draws?
