My cycle seems so crazy is it possible??
I use to be very regular, after DD it's all over the place. Is it possible, last month AF came on the 18th I O'd on the 29th, I am 15 DPO still BFN and on CD27, can I still have a chance or am I just waiting for the inevitable?!

How do you know for sure that you O'd on the 29th?

Re: My cycle seems so crazy is it possible??
Well I can tell you from my own experience (and most recently my own confusion) that you can ovulate a couple of days after the smiley.
I temped this month so let me share my situation with you and see if it helps you make sense of yours:
I use the CBEFM and digital OPK's.
CD11 - Smiley and Peak reading
CD12 - Smiley and Peak reading
I had a progesterone test taken at an RE on CD 12 - according to which I had not ovulated yet.
CD13 - No Smiley and High Reading
CD 14 - temperature rise
The temp rise indicates that I most likely O'd on CD 13. Which was 2 days after my first smiley and peak reading.
I never used to temp and always just assumed I O'd either on the first or 2nd postiive OPK day - when according to this months cycle, it was a day or two later.
Does this make sense? Do you know what your LP is?

Oh wow so then i may have not even O'd at that time? What else do I need to do then? I don't know what my LP is actually!

Well, to give yourself a cushion, I'd say to figure you O'd a day or two after your 2nd smiley. The worst that could happen is that you O'd a little earlier than that. Then I would guesstimate a LP of 14 since that is the "textbook" length. Me, I have an 11-12 day LP - or so I think. So count 14 days from when you guess you O'd and then you would have your expected AF date. If your LP is shorter than 14 days, AF would show before that.
By the way - your daughter is GORGEOUS!!!

Wow this gets very confusing! So then I missed it!!! DH did  5 days in a row but I guess not at the right time! It was so easy with DD, got the smiley followed Deanna's plan and boom we were preggo!
Thank you for the compliment, she is going to be 1 tomorrow!!!

I wouldn't say you missed it. Just might be off by a day or 2. As long as you the days leading up to O (that's most important), you are still in and have a good chance 
Happy Birthday to her!!!
