Calculating cycle length

Okay I need some help or reassurance here!

Going back 6mths here are my stats for the length between cycles.

Month 1 - 40 days
Month 2- 34 days
Month 3 - 31 days
Month 4- 33 days
Month 5- 39 days
Month 6-26 days.

Based on that can I just assume my cycles average 33-34 days?

For all your sakes on this board I hpe I get preggers this month as I am going to drive you all nuts calculating and asking Q's if I dont!!!

Thanks

Re: Calculating cycle length

I hear ya girl! It's getting a little frustrating "keeping track"... Are you using OPKs or temping/charting?


Here's a bunch o'

Re: Calculating cycle length

were you on the pill and came off? That would explain that LONG length and that it keeps getting shorter....

Based on those numbers - it'll be VERY hard to get an average...

Re: Calculating cycle length

I havent been on the pill since 2005 but I was BF for 2 years -still am but not full time and AF only came back in Jan after a long break so things are a little nutty.

I have the OPK and started using that yesterday - nothing showed up....if I calculate it out to be 33-34 days I should O next tuesday so should be fertile this weekend. Will try the OPK this afternoon and see.

I am one of those people who is so not in tune with her body - have no idea when I O or what diffrent types of CM mean...seriously I am clueless.

DD # 1 was a honeymoon baby so there was no charting, trying nothing just a realisation at about 6 weeks that I was pregnant!! so this is all new to me.

fingers crossed I will O next week and I should spend the weekend BD'g right?

Thanks ladies

Re: Calculating cycle length

your cycles sound like mine--I just had Day 3 bloodwork done to try and answer some of the questions about why my cycles are so screwy...I've been trying to use the calandars on mymonthlycycles.com, but it just doesn't work for people like us who hardly have 2 of the same cycles in a 6 month stretch... I don't have any advice, just and to say--I can relate to the struggle or figuring out your cycle length!
