a little confused

My periods have been irregular since I got my period back in July '08. Some months they are 22 days and the longest was last month wich was 36!
I know I ovulated last month b/c of lots of EWCM.
This month I decided to get a OPK (a 20 pack) and pinpoint exactly when I ov.
I didn't start the tests until Cd9 late at night b/c I lost them until then.
Today is cD25 and I have yet to get a positive. Last night I had some pink spotting (just when I wiped) and this morning it is a brownish color and even less then last night.
I also spotted once on cD12, but didn't show a positive on OPK...
I have no real cramping...
Could the spotting on cD12 have been ovualtion...
Could the spotting on cD24 (yesterday) and a little today be implantation...
Or am I going to get a visit from AF and just didn't ov this mth?
What do you all think?

It's possible - not sure about the spotting on CD12, but on CD24, it could well be implantation. You might have ovulated sooner than estimated... Why not try an HPT, to pinpoint and put your mind at ease?

I'm going to test this weekend. I am cd26 now and only had brown spotting for an hour or so yesterday. Trying not to think about it b/c I don't want to get my hopes up but I am having back pain (which I had when I was preggo with my last one) and heartburn...
I'll let you all know...

Today is cd29, no other spotting since cd 24/25 (cd25 was only one or two spots of brown in the morning and then nothing), yesterday was my last opk and it was almost positive, about the same shade line...
Today I am having EWCM and lots of it!
Am I finally ovulating or can ewcm be a sign of preg too? What is going on? My DH and I have been BDing every other night since cd6, which was 2 days after AF left...
Advice, please!
So afraid to test, my original thought was to wait til tomorrow to buy the test and test early Sunday...

My periods are really irregular too, and I know I don't ovulate every cycle. Wait and test tomorrow, I really hope it's a BFP! Don't get too down if it isn't, I know it's disappointing but when you're so irregular it's really hard to tell when you're fertile. Have you seen a doc? Maybe they could help you make sense of all the mixed signals?

I had a lot of EWCM when I first became pregnant..so it could be that you are too!! I would say don't test too early. Sometimes it can bring you down when indeed you are pregnant....happened to me twice! If you get one of those early pregnancy tests, don't test sooner than 5 days before AF is due! Baby dust your way!!

Really Dee? That makes me feel a little better knowing that you got ewcm when you were first preggo. I'm going to test prob tomorrow morning, which will be cd 31 and again next week on cd37 if the first is -...
prayer for my BFP!

BFN but I truely believe that I just ovulated a few days ago, still having some ewcm...
I will wait til next Sunday and test again.
I've decided that if I don't get my + this mth, that we are going to stop aggressively trying for awhile...we will still try but with less of a schedule.
Wish me luck

Just to update everyone,
Sunday night I woke up to the room spinning. Went to the doc on Mon and he said I have a very deep sinus infection with tons of fluid on my ears. I asked him to do a urine preg test and to check for an UTI b/c all through my OPKs I noticed floaties in my urine. He said BFN and I also have a bladder infection!
Well, today (Tue) AF showed up.
So, here's to another mth of trying!

    I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

    A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
