We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
Wow! I feel so flattered to have to have stalkers!
I have a really good feeling this cycle, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up to high just in case.
That being said, what were some of the first signs of your BFP cycle that you either of you think this is finally it?? I'm just curious.
I had some AF-like cramping on my BFP cycle so I don't know if it really helps to look out for it...
In any case, good luck! I hope this is it!

Pretty chart
FX for you, Bailey!
For my BFPs I had slight cramping for a few days starting around 4/5DPO. I don't get AF cramps so I knew something was up.
I've got a fairly short LP (usually 9-10 days) so the big one for me was my temp going UP on CD9 (same day I got my BFP).
Since I got my BFP so early, I didn't really get a change to develop "symptoms".

I was actually completely shocked by my BFP, as I had gotten a BFN the week before. I just *knew* that AF was coming, because I was feeling PMS-y and had some cramping. my boobs started hurting too, but that happens with AF as well, so I didn't even think of it as a PG symptom.
I guess I was pretty convinced that it wasn't going to happen, so I stopped reading too much into the symptoms.

I am late to this, but also wanted to say that I had been chart stalking and totally agree. I know it is still pretty early, but your chart is looking good.
Keeping FX for you!
As others have said, I had similar symptoms of PMS cramping early, that was about it. (Like Mandee I tried not to think/dwell on symptoms though).
Good luck!
I wouldn't be much help in the chart reading, given that I never charted myself.
I never had any cramping or PMS-type symptoms prior, but I did have horrible heartburn that lasted for 2 days. At the time, I had no idea what was going on, but obviously, it makes sense now.
Late, but my fingers are crossed for you!
The only unusual (non-AF) symptoms for me was that two night before I got a positive test (so 11 and 12dpo) I woke up in the middle of the night feeling a little nauseous--but that may have been totally unrelated, because it didn't happen again after my BFP.
