Haha, I know! I didn't get hurt too much when I fell. The most painful part was my ankle giving out! Stupid ankle. Very worth it though...hehe

12/28 - I'm still spotting sort of. Noticing a bit of Pink CM. I think I jump started AF! hah. Oh well, she was gonna come either way I suppose....

12/28 (CD 32) evening- The pink cm is now red. AF surely is here! I haven't even had any cramping which is odd. Not sure if I should count today as the first day of AF since she isn't in full force yet. Looks like my cycles are going to a predictable 32-33 days though. Nice to know they aren't all over the place!

12/29(cd 1) Merry late Christmas to me! I ordered a clearblue easy fertility monitor today. I expedited the shipping so it might arrive in time to start using this month. I think someone said you can program is to start charting as late as cd5. If not, I'll just use next month I guess!

CD2 (12/30) -

So I plugged in my af date and cycle length into the ovulation calculator(http://www.babycenter.com/ovulation-calculator) and this is what it said:

Based on your answers, you're likely to be most fertile from Mon Jan 14 2008 to Sat January 19, 2008. If you were to get pregnant during that time, your due date would be Thurs. October 9, 2008.

The freaky part about this is on October 9, 2008 we would be married 4 yrs exactly! Maybe it's a sign?

12/31 (CD3) - Happy New Years Eve everyone!

DH just found out that he works tomorrow at 6am. I love how his work gives him such NOTICE. Anyway, I've drowned my sorrows in caffeine since AF came. I have been drinking pepsi and regular strong coffee from starbucks like crazy. It's really bad and I feel quite sick now. That'll teach me! Well my new years resolution is to eat more healthily, drink less caffiene, and TTC my heart out. I have a feeling that my monitor won't arrive in time but maybe I can trick it into working for me this month anyway! :-D

Hello there, I am slowly but surely getting to read other people's journals. Sometime time is a bit short or I get carried away on the internet researching stuff and don't get a chance to post.

Well, I am the person who mentioned that you can start using your monitor as late as CD5, because that is the day I started using mine. Since I got it, I have learned a few other things I didn't know through my research and I am going to share one of them with you (sorry if you already know this).

If your period starts late in the day or during the night (and is quite light) then CD1 should be counted as the following day. Mine started at 10pm, so the following day was my CD1. This may buy you time with your monitor when it arrives.

Good luck with it and enjoy.

Thanks Tishi! I counted the day after AF showed as CD1 just because she was light the first day and they say to count CD1 as the first full flow day. My friend told me I can start using it even if I don't get it until cd7 and just trick it into thinking I'm on CD5. I may do that just because I'm super impatient and want to try it out this month!!! :-D

It saves data from each cycle to tell when to ask you to do a test, if you "trick" it then it will be out of sync.
