Bittersweet...

Today is CD1. AF woke me up at 1:45 and kept me up all night, beating up my ute because it's empty.

BUT- 1) my LP is staying consistent at 10 days. That's good right?
2) I HAD A 30 DAY CYCLE!! YES!!!! I hope this will be my new norm!!

I'm very sad, and in a whole hell of a lot of pain, but trying to keep my head positive thinking about the good things. "Eye on the prize".

I hope you ladies have a fantastic Monday!

Re: Bittersweet...

  • Sorry about CD 1...

    Isn't 10 days on the short end of the ideal length for LP? The most ideal is 14 days and I know they say that less is okay but 10 is pretty short IMO. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I mean, it's good that it's staying pretty consistent I guess.

    I hope that all of this is a good sign though and that you start having more regular cycles!

  • I'm so sorry about AF. Seriously, what's with her waking people up in the middle of the night lately?? That's just plain cruel!

    I am very glad to see your positive outlook, though. :) Keep that chin up (and maybe knock back a handful of Advil as needed to keep the ute beating pains to a minimum).

    I'm sorry AF showed up but I agree with this. 10 days is on the short side for an ideal LP length, it's doable but not ideal as far as I understand. It's at least worth mentioning to your OB.

    ETA: Your ticker says 14dpo so I'm assuming your basing 10 day LP off the possible later ovulation date?

  • I'm sorry AF showed :( I agree a 10 day LP is a bit short. The way I explain it to my H is that your body is giving up on being pregnant before you have a chance at implantation. I hope you can get to a longer LP and keep the shorter cycles!

  • I'm sorry she woke you in the middle of the night. I can never get back to sleep after that. Hopefully you can pamper yourself a little tonight to make up for the lack of sleep.  But consistant cycles do rock!

    Yes. I'm basing that on the later O date, that seems more accurate for me.

    Anyone have any ideas to get my LP longer? I've heard chaste berry and vitamin B6 are both good? Any first hand experience??
  • @blueeyedblossom I had a good response with B6
