you - have you gone to a doctor about your cycles and what tests were done, if any?This is still my first cycle off BCP so I haven't gone to the doctor yet, but I I think after 6 months if my cycles are still long/it looks like I am not O'ing then I will go to the doctor. Probably mostly to test for PCOS (which I think I am at high rish for...).

CD 32 and two -PT later, I am starting to feel a bit crampy, and tired. I'd like AF to get here so I can get onto my next cycle.
Why don't you try to chart so you can have more of an idea of what's happening. I know I do and then I can avoid buying tons of HPTs. My FH says, "You should test." Then I have to explain to him yet again how the human body functions and that if I don't O then it's IMPOSSIBLE to be pregnant. I think that he just doesn't listen sometimes when I talk about human reproduction.
I have started to chart my temp, (two days now) so I am hoping that my next cycle will be a bit more clear. My cycles were always like clock work then I had a m/c and since then they have been crazy. I never know whats going on, and I am really starting to get tired of it. So I am hoping that the temping will help.

Now just waiting for baby!

Well, I've been snooping around this section long enough. I suppose I should post something.
My FH and I are mildly TTC, just kind of not using anything when we do, but also not doing all the time to try to get preggo.
However, we did get pregnant once. A few years ago when we were still a couple of immature teenagers in high school! It was scary at first, but we were elated. Our parents were furious, but they finally got over everything and started to get excited. Things were going well, and I was feeling great (except for some mild nausea and some food aversions). Then, one day I wasn't feeling so great and I started spotting. We lost our baby three days later in the ER at one of our local hospitals. I was in the room alone. I don't know where FH went and I think the nurse went to get the blood work equipment. I coughed and I felt something. I coughed again (I was panicking and having a hard time breathing because of anxiety about everything) and there he was. We were sad, but even more sad to find out that we were MUCH farther along than we thought (I'm talking 2 months difference. I hadn't had an ultrasound yet or any blood work as my first appointment with my midwife was a week later). I'm sure this would be a traumatic experience for anyone, but what made things worse was that, since I was only 18, people took the assumption that I was HAPPY that it happened because I could move on with my life. I don't know what the heck was wrong with them (including the nurses and doctor at the hospital), but I wanted to kill them all.
Anyway, what it all comes down to is this: I bled for almost 2 months straight afterward. Then, ever since, my cycles have been so irregular. I was like clockwork before the pregnancy - 28 days every month. But now, I can go three months without AF, I can get two in a month. It really sucks. My family has a history of fertility problems and I'm scared that I won't be able to have kids now.
On a good note, lately things have been a little more regular. My past three AFs have all been 40ish days apart, so not too bad compared to the other cycles I've had.
How long should it take after something I've went through for AF to regulate again, though? I'm getting a little tired of waiting as it has been almost 3 years!
Also, how do you know if you've ovulated? What are some of the signs/symptoms of ovulation?

| Aw, Emilie, so sorry to hear what you went through! *hugs* I am not sure how long things take to get back to normal after a miscarriage, have you ever asked your doctor about it? Sounds like you were fairly far along too, so it could take some time... I am just learning about the ovulation signs thing, but I signed up for a membership on fertiltyfriend.com (free for the first month), and I've learned LOTS of info! You can watch your cervical fluid for signs of ovulation, it will get wetter and then approach a consistency like egg whites right before you ovulate. You can also buy a basal thermometer at the drugstore and take your temperature every morning and use a program like fertilityfriend to chart your temperatures. Your temps should rise right after ovulation. That will help you figure out what's going one with your body! I would recommend checking out one of those sites, or lots of the ladies on here will recommend reading the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" to learn all there is to know!
Good luck!
