Testing Plans: 12/3. Waiting the full time. I'm tired of wasting pregnancy tests. I also don't have a good feeling about this, so I'd rather get cd1 than go through the nerves of waiting for a test result.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: eh. I made it through thanksgiving with my family without them mentioning the baby 🙌🏼 But I did feel down a few times bc I should be starting my third tri. I'm super sick with an awful cold and cough and terrified to take anything in case I am KU so I'm just a coughing, stuffy runny nosed mess.
GTKY: Yogurt or cottage cheese? Omg. The answer is never cottage cheese! Ever! So yogurt all the way. Every time.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: FF moved my crosse hairs. I was skeptical of them the first time, so this is fine. It can also only be as good as the data I give it. I have a few missed days and my temping times are all over the place. I'll get my shit together next cycle.

ironbaby I'm sorry you got confronted at all *hugs hugs hugs*
DH actually was very specific before we went in asking me to tell them we did NOT want to talk about it at all, so I told my sister that, and to pass the message along to my parents, so I'm glad they respected our request. (Of course, my sister threw a shitfit about our request when I told her, but whatever).

You don't need to suffer. Take some meds. You are barely early enough for implantation, let alone to be sharing a blood supply with the placenta. So get some meds and take care of yourself.

I mean I've been taking Tylenol and using cough and throat drops. I was planning on taking some robitussin when I got home from traveling, so I'm not not taking something. I just feel uncomfortable taking anything with phenylephrine. So I'm surviving with this nose being the worst. Plus I know I'll feel better once I get some Robitussin in me!
ETA: i meant not taking anything bc I don't think the Tylenol was actually helping except to drop my fever, which I did appreciate, but not to help w the sore throat or nose issues.
Also, even though my loss was fairly specific / due to the cysts and most likely an anueploidy issue, we have no official confirmation, so TTCAL brain is in full force and I am erring on the side of super caution, bc now I will worry al the time about everything I do.

Cycle/Month: 4
CD/DPO: 26/6
Timing: -1, -3, -5 (does this day even count?)
Testing Plans: Friday if no AF
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I'm all crampy and I don't usually start getting cramps until the day of AF. Get out, cramps. I did not want to go back to work today. 17 more school days until Christmas break!

5 days pre ovulation is borderline counting. The idea being that sperm can survive for up to 5 days inside the human body after ejaculation. So theorectically you could get pregnant from having sex on just day -5, but it's less likely.

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I asked this before but I don't think it got answered. Can you ovulate too early/have a luteal phase that's too long? I've been O'ing day 11/12 and having 16-18 day luteal phases since my ectopic.
Also, I just got a new BBT and didn't get it until CD9 so idk if it's accurate or what happened the days before that so I'm going by my OPK and hoping I can still catch a shift. Here's what I have so the BBT isn't very helpful this month.
mayflowers, can you link to your FF profile so we can see older charts? I'd like to confirm that your crosshairs on previous cycles look right before delving into the 16-18 day LP. How many cycles has the longer LP been an issue?
I have been very inconsistent with temping but have been doing OPKs and temped on and off. I've had a longer LP since I started tracking last December (ectopic surgery was last November).
First day I forgot to take my temperature . Does everyone typically take their temperature until their period/ until it's time to test? Or just to confirm ovulation?
I used to take it every day except during my period, but now I confirm O plus 2 or three more days then I stop. I found myself obsessing over it too much during the TWW, so it has helped with that. I usually start temping again around 12dpo just so I can avoid being utterly surprised when my period starts.

It's only showing your most recent chart. Can you go to the Sharing tab, then click Setup under Charting Home Page. Scroll to the bottom and make sure All Charts shows up under Published Charts.
Oh, I see where you pasted old charts. Thanks, mayflowers.
You are not temping early enough in your cycle to get crosshairs based on your temps. I am not inclined to believe that your charts are showing an accurate O date without more temp data. You can (and probably are) having more than one LH surge, or a surge that lasts a few days, resulting in a positive OPK earlier than your actual O date. It looks to me like you probably have more like a 15-day LP. Because FF doesn't have enough temp data, the OPK info is forming the entire basis for the crosshairs.

mayflowers Do you continue OPKs after a positive? Can't really tell from your charts. I agree with ironbaby. You need more temps and you might be having a longer surge. Also, I have read that early O can be a problem with egg maturity, but that's like, super early like cd 8 or earlier so I wouldn't worry about that!
obscurereference yes, they lighten pretty quickly. I might get positive for 12 hours. I usually test morning and night to catch it when it starts darkening. I had an almost pos yesterday wondfo and O on CB advanced at 7am, very dark positive and solid smiley on CB advanced at 5pm yesterday, and another almost positive wondfo at 9pm. This morning it's lighter (see attached).
Also, TMI but I had a ridiculous amount of CM yesterday which isn't the norm.
