CD1 August 11th - wanna keep one another sane?

Well, my previous cycle buddies did a grand job of cheering one another up through the last 2ww....and I'm the first, and hopefully, only one out.

Anyone else want to obsess symptons away this month. I expect to Ov around 27th/28th, although when to test will be somewhat guess work as I have a Luteal phase defect to try and correct in the meantime!

Come join the party (Ok - of 1 person at the mo!) :dohh: :rofl:

My AF arrived today after 56 days, so there's no real way of knowing if I am a true cycle buddy. But if your happy to have me on board I need an occaisional dose of sanity! :)

Not alwasy great at sanity....but I'll do my best! Do you have any idea if and when you Ov? :hugs:

looking at my last 2 cycles of 81 & 56 days, i'm looking at taking my BBt this month to get a better idea

I just had my longest cycle ever - 37 days how odd, but af arrived today and Im actually happy :)
So even though you might beat me to Ovulation we can be cydcle buddies in the meanwhile :)

Littlestar I almost messaged you today, I saw that you didnt have af for almost 50+ days and are going for ultrsound! What are they looking out for?

Littlestar I almost messaged you today, I saw that you didnt have af for almost 50+ days and are going for ultrsound! What are they looking out for?

they're looking into the health of my overies and uterus, to see if theres and phyisical explanation for lack of :witch:
basically it will rule out polycystic ovary syndrome, blocked tubes.

I'll join!
:witch:just starting to show her face today after being 12 days late (was also 8 days late last cycle, before that completely regular, been off bcp for over a year, so who knows what the hell is going on with my body at the mo and why it's suddenly started playing up!!).
My plan for this cycle is to go into OV stick overdrive, in a desperate attempt to try and see what's happening!

Celine - i am the same as you! Every month when :witch:arrives i just want to cry and cry. Today though - feel on :cloud9:!!! So happy the old hag has finally got me!!

i'm planning my BBT charting for this month - just waiting for Thermometer to arrive.
Aparently if i do have PCOS then some brands of o tests don't work (CBFM says not suitable for women with PCOS) I do have some stick tests i might try - but they sound complicated - need to let sample get to room temperature etc before testing sounds like it's going to take ages.

Hey Lyns

I would so love to be your cycle buddy sweets.

I have had spotting for 2 days on and off - where are you :witch: face?

I will probably be a day behind you :hissy:

Sorry she got you darling xxx

I'm just glad I know. I have just had a 42 day cycle my last cycle was 34 days and that was my 1st one after my m/c so, hopefully this one will be a 28 day cycle and result in a sticky :bfp:

I hope we get a bfp in this group this month :) seems we have alot of long cycle stories!
Cd 2 and af is physically killing me here, I think im going to die :(

Me too. CD2 is alwasy my heaviest day.

Sometimes i think the wait to Ov, is worse than the 2ww to test (although my apparently is nowhere near 2 weeks!)

:witch: arrived this morning, a day earlier than expected.
Gutted even though I knew it probably wasn't my month....

Timing is pretty rubbish now for when I'm due to O - we're in Italy with my OH's relatives and he doesn't like :sex:when we are there. Dammit.

Just have to get him drunk :rofl:

Good luck everyone xx

Just have to get him drunk :rofl:


:rofl:

Nothing like a bottle of cheap italian wine to get the juices flowing! hehe
I do understand tho, my mom lives with us and she is in the room nxt door (we are renting this aweful house in netherlands waiting to move end oct to new house where our room will b far away)
in this crap house there is 5cm gaps under all the doors, squeaky old beds too!

Hi I'm waiting for her to show her face tommorow I will be your buddy.

There's a fine line between enough booze to lose his inhibitions and er, coma and I haven't quite sussed it :rofl:

Good luck everyone - only a few days until BD time :happydance:

Hx

How yawnsville is CD2?!! I'm bored already!
What CD are you guys due to Ov? Lets countdown to that!!!
My cycles have gone bonkers so i could be anywhere between CD 19 and CD 33. I shall be using a vast quantity of OV sticks this month to work it out!
Was reading this morning about someone who had got pg from bd-ing on CD 2 actually.... very interesting.... apparently its relatively common to ovulate during your AF. Any takers to try this out?? My DH would run for the hills if i suggested this!!!!! :rofl::rofl:!!!

bd in cd 2? tmi but my afs are so heavy that after i go to the loo it actually looks like ive killed someone, cut them into little pieces and tried to flush!

funny enough we have bd-ed during af :blush: we were apart for 4 months and i was on cd 3 but we really missed each other...alot...there is a really dirty sheet we still to wash too :rofl:

Hi I'm waiting for her to show her face tommorow I will be your buddy.


Welcome hunny....is she definitely gonna show or are you in with a hope this month?

Coffe to answer ur question...according to FF I should O between cd 18 & 20 (which is 28th and 30th Aug)

and you?

Ha ha ha! Me too!!! There's no way i would want to bd!! It was just something i read in the newspaper this morning! Maybe give it a try in a couple more years if i get more desperate!!!!

I should Ov anytime from 29th August, to.... well... could be anywhere up to 14th sept or later! I shall have to keep poas to find out!! My cycle has gone mad lately!

Prob about CD16 or 17 for me.....then its not so much the 2ww, its more like the 'pray AF doens't turn up too early wait' Gotta sort this LPD out. Been to the healthfood shop today and ordered myself some of this...

http://www.pukkaherbs.com/file/939c0d063f318d725731a437e1c98094/shatavari-plus.html

Only problem is it makes your breath stink that bad no one would want to :sex: with you anyway! Oh the sacrifices.....:rofl:

Lyns I hope af stays away a lil longer this time..like 9 months longer :)
My cycle went made lately too. usually 29 - 35 days and last one 38 days it was the worst 3ww ever!

I'm due to O on CD 14, the Bank Holiday Monday.
Not actually that long away now....

I also couldn't BD on CD2. Yikes, not worth the mess!! :rofl:

Hx

I'd like to join too :)
I am right around Celine-AF was 6 days late and I finally started af on August 9th. This is first AF after MC and I'm going to start charting for the first time tomorrow morning so wish me luck :)

Quick question-how do I find this buddy list again, just look for this same title each time I look in the buddies posts???

Hi JJF
Welcome to our little cycle buddy group :P I hate it when af shows up so late!! Good luck with the charting, this is my 2nd month of charting.

To find this group just click on the title in the cycle buddies area.

BD on CD2?!?! I say no way my OH is always pestering me whilst I am on!!!!!! He just doesn't care:rofl::rofl: You would of thought after being together for 8yrs he would know hell would have to freeze over 1st!!! :witch: should leave me on evening of CD6 so, he can wait til then. He will be glad of the rest by the end of this cycle as, I am determind to get a :bfp: so we will be BDing everyday from CD6 onwards:rofl::rofl:

wow shmoo thats very determined of you! Thats one way to make extra sure you have covered all your bases :)
My af also only starts leaving after cd6 or so, her stays are always long and painful. Then should start bd really hard from cd10 and o sticks from cd12 and see where we get to this cycle :)

I know!!! I don't think my OH will complain:rofl::rofl:

I know!!! I don't think my OH will complain:rofl::rofl:

I thought that the month i decided to try the "bd every day for the whole cycle" technique and weirdly DH did complain??!! Before TTC he used to say we didn't bd enough, then when he gets it all on a plate he complained it was too much for him!!! Men! pah! No pleasing them!

cd 1 on Aug. Can i join too?

oops I can't type today cd 1 on Aug 12

oops I can't type today cd 1 on Aug 12

Welcome hun! Good luck this cycle xx

this part of the cycle is definatly the most dull, all blood and pms...the fun only starts in a week

Hi amber welcome to the beginning of the madness:rofl::rofl:

I am still waiting for :witch: to fly away which will hopefully be this weekend then the BDing can start!!!! I hopefully will OV around the BH weekend which is when me & OH are still on Holiday so, I should be able to catch it. I so hope so. When do you girlies think you will OV?

Knock Knock...
peeking inside......:hi:

I'm a few days behind you all.......but have been following your thread since some of you left the old thread.

Helloooooooooooo again.......and hello to new girls!!!!!

Hi Chillbilly!! :hi:

I'm still so so so so booorrrreeddddd of this cycle so far! Anyone had the :witch: leave them yet?! She's still hanging around me and probably will for a couple of days yet.
On the upside, i'm feeling very confident that myself and all my cycle buddies will get BFP's this cycle! So join this thread quick if you want a :bfp:!!!
How long has everyone here been TTC? I've been 1 year and 1 month now so this cycle has to be it now, right?!

Knock Knock...
peeking inside......:hi:

I'm a few days behind you all.......but have been following your thread since some of you left the old thread.

Helloooooooooooo again.......and hello to new girls!!!!!

Hello you....

I'd say your welcome to join us, but I rather hope you don't need! She's not got you yet has she?

Yup...got me good!!!!

i was about to start a thread called " Fack me it hurts!!!!!!!"
hahahaha

I was hoping some topless suntanning would do the trick but I keep hearing branches breaking in the woods so I am to scared to stay out there. Dogs were with me but they got to hot and wanted in.

i can just imagine the headlines........ Half naked girl found eaten by a bear.
Speaking of headlines...I just saw on some news show..maybe not true but....they showed a video of a 14lb 2 day old in Cancun mexico.....i think they nick name him " super Antonio" or mucho grande!!!!!

haha
had him laying next to a regular sized newborn..holy moly..I didn't want to post that news in any preggo threads.......scare the 3rd tri girls.

:shock: 14lbs! Thats really gotta hurt! My DD was just 10lbs and believe me that was big enough. She got stcuk on the way out (wrong way roudn too!) so they had to whip me off for a c-sec!

Sorry she got you sweetie....here's looking to next month! xx

Answering questions from Shmoo75 and Coffee...
The Witch moved out today and this was first AF after MC so before my cycles were cd 31 but I just started charting my temps yesterday and I'm planning to pay REAL close attention to the other stuff to and time it just right but I don't know yet what day that will be. OH is going out of town and i told him he had to be back by the 21st in case I'm now on a 28 day cycle!!!

Coffee: I have two little ones and started trying in January. I got prego after my May 12th period but MC at 7w5d. Tried right after to get prego but no luck :( Hoping this is my month. So not trying too too long, but it still feels long to me. THis was my 3rd MC but I do have two beautiful babies!!!

The bloomin :witch: is still hanging around my gaff at the mo much to my OH's dismay whilst she is still here no :sex: for me Hopefully she would of buzzed off by tomorrow evening then OH can start walking lighter again:rofl::rofl::rofl: What are they like its only a couple of days!!!

I've been TTC since April this yr, I fell straight away but I had a m/c end of may when is was 7wks+4days. This is my 2nd visit from :witch: since my m/c. 1st was a 34 day cycle and the last one was 42 days. I really hope they start going back to a more normal 28days this is why I am charting my temps from this cycle onwards so I have more of an idea when I OV and stuff.

Well, my previous cycle buddies did a grand job of cheering one another up through the last 2ww....and I'm the first, and hopefully, only one out.

Anyone else want to obsess symptons away this month. I expect to Ov around 27th/28th, although when to test will be somewhat guess work as I have a Luteal phase defect to try and correct in the meantime!

Come join the party (Ok - of 1 person at the mo!) :dohh: :rofl:


Party of 1? make that 2! :rofl:

I am CD4 today - normally 27 day cycle but they have been a bit wonky of late!!

So how long have you been TTC for? Fingers crossed this is our month!:hugs:

:shock: 14lbs! Thats really gotta hurt! My DD was just 10lbs and believe me that was big enough. She got stcuk on the way out (wrong way roudn too!) so they had to whip me off for a c-sec!

Sorry she got you sweetie....here's looking to next month! xx

Stuck???.....did they wheel you down the hall with your legs in stirrups head sticking out.....to surgery? oh jesus..I am hearing bout some scarey stories.

did you see the thread aout face first births? and 92 stitch birth....

ok sorry onto another subject.........
Hello to Coffee, JJF, shmoo, and rachelle...and if I forgot anyone else new sorry BUT I am little scatter brained..lol

We'll have some fun chats in about a week..hehehe
I actually forgot about AF and was totally out of everything this time.

funny thing is...i bought a HUGE pack of pads in Aprl...I used the last one yesterday...hahahaha ( had about 200 of them.lol)

Party of 1? make that 2! :rofl:

Well your very welcome to join the party, hun!

CD5 for me today....again usually a 27 day cycle thats also been misbehavin' lately. It's bad enough when its predictable isn't it, never mind when the wretched :witch: plays hide and seek around AF tme and you never know if she'll be early or late or hopefully stay away completely.

This is my 3rd month actively TTC and about our 6th 'not avoiding', but I think I was havng annovulatory bleeds for the first 2 or 3 cycles. I'm blessed to have a beautiful daughter already, but she would make a great big sis, so hoping and praying for my BFP soon.

Good luck here sweetie....sprinkles of :dust:for you xx

Perversely enough, I actually thoroughly enjoyed my 24 hour labour stint and even the C-sec, and I'd do it all again in a heartbeat. At the time, i wasn't really aware (bit too much entonox probably!) how much a problem it all could have become, and they were initally going to try forceps (which i am really squeamish about) when DD's heartbeat suddenly dropped, so they opted for a C-sec immediately. Thankfully, I'd just agreed to an epidural as the pain was getting unbearable at that point (she was putting a lot of pressure on my lower spine due to her being back to front) and if I hadn't of had that I'd have to have been crashed out with a GA, and missed her birth.

The funniest story I heard though was about a woman who was in a similar situation to me....she'd tried to give birth naturally, the baby had got stuck part way down, couldn't go forward, couldn't go back, so they went for C-sec.. Apparently the midwife had her hand one end pushing the baby back into the uterus for the surgeon, to lift the baby out through abdomen, and her husband could actually see the midwifes hand pushing the baby....through the incision in her abdomen, and almost hand the baby to the surgeon that way....Eeeew!

Well your very welcome to join the party, hun!

Ah thank you :hug:

I had my CD5 bloods done today so results next week along with DH swimmer test! lets hope they are all capable of doing freestyle! he he

I started off okay with my cycles, ovulation CD14 and 27 days regular as clockwork but last few months it has all gone very wonky with no apparently ovulation and my CM has gone on a round the world trip backpacking!! ha ha:rofl:

I'm chilling with it - getting on for a year now but they say the average is a year and i would quite like to be average (she says with a big sigh)! :hug:

Rachelle1975-you said "my CM has gone on a round the world trip backpacking! I thought you said your husband had gone on a backpacking trip around the world, I was thinking, WOW, don't guess it matters when you ovulate right now....:rofl:
That will teach me to read more carefully!!!

:rofl::rofl::rofl: if he'd gone backpacking without me there would be some SERIOUS problems!! :rofl::rofl:

I am itching to plan a road trip in California next year but no can do with this TTC lark...... damn and blast!:muaha:

Well CD 6 for me..almost time for us to be pumping up the action ladies!

i considered it this morning but went back to sleep.....
*note to self, must try harder :rofl:

since we now know i'm ovulating, DH has banned me from POAS... said its every other day this month :blush:

i've started charting this month to help my understand my cycle better - hopefully they should be settling into a regular cycle now!

Hi Girls. Hope you are all well and enjoying your weekends.

I have started my SMEP this am as had a nice :sex: I would of started last night but, me and OH were far too:drunk:to do anything but fall asleep:rofl::rofl: Note to self must not get too drunk again..... Still hoping to OV around BH wkend so fingers crossed for all us ladies and bring on the 2ww madness

Hello girls
I've been ttc for 2 months now after miscarrying an accidental pregnancy in June. My other half is not tcc but he isn't 'avoiding' (I'm going to steal your phrase Lyns!). Haha. I think it's the most I can hope for. I know he will be over the moon when it happens but the less talking about it and planning the better as far as he is concerned. I'm now on CD7 and we are going to be in Italy for the weekend when I am due to O. So lots of quiet BDing at my OH's Auntie's house! I'm also going to have a problem using opk when i am there so I'm aiming to get it in whenever I can. So to speak.
I hope everyone else is getting ready to start in a couple of days!
Hx

Cd 8 for me - will start poas from Saturday (opks) anyone else with me?

CD7 for me - i'm trying to avoid OPKs so i sleep better! Good luck with the OPKs and hopefully we'll both ovulate this weekend!x

I decided to just start charting my temps this month and watch for my cm but now I'm thinking maybe I should go get some poas ov's but I'm worried I will become yet another crazy freak this month and I'm really trying to remain calmer and less obsessed-but who am I foolin, haha. I went to order some cheapies from ebay but I don't have any money to be spending on it all but of course now I'm regretting not buying them. So maybe I'll try this month with out them and if I don't get preggers I'll be armed and dangerous for next month. Good luck Celine!

Rachelle1975-your fertility friend chart looks as empty as mine, ha!

i considered it this morning but went back to sleep.....
*note to self, must try harder :rofl:

since we now know i'm ovulating, DH has banned me from POAS... said its every other day this month :blush:

I was told that this month its every day...then every other day when we get close to O time.

haha
I am still using preseed for extra CM help...I have also read about grapefruit juice and the EWCM it produces. I will also keep legs in air....hehe and make sure I " finish with an O" as well........
Thats my plan.......well mostly OH's plan..hehe Take the pressure off me for a bit.

CD8 for me...and I will start peeing on sticks when my CBFM tells me to! I guess that will probably be sometime next weekend as last cycle I didn't Ov until CD16/17.

Have been trying to lengthen LP though so I may do some IC OPK's just to double check that CBFM doesn't leave it too late!

That said Hubby is now away until Thursday so I don't want to Ov before then! xx

Hey ladies!
How are we all doing? I've been a bit off-radar the last few days but i'm back now and ready to conceive that baby!!!
Well the bd-ing for this cycle is now underway! Hurrah!! Even though its way too early for ov at least i can feel like we're actually doing something now! And you never know, right?!
Awww i'm gonna miss this forum when we all get :bfp:'s and move over to 1st Tri! It's going to happen this time, it's going to happen....!! Whoop whoop! Come on! here's to us all getting a bun in the oven this time!! :-)

Good positives vibes there coffee!
Im not feeling too positive about this cycle...yet, having my grapefruit juice virgin cocktail to help future cm :P
am nervous to get the bding started, since I o quite late Im scared to run out of steam by then!

Aww keep your chin up Celine! I have late Ov too. Well, i *think* i do! I was 2 weeks late for AF last cycle, so my ticker saying "11 days to ovulation" is probably wrong, and it could be more like 25 days to ov for me yet! We can Ov late together if you want??!! (although knowing my stupid body, i'll prob Ov mega early this cycle, just to confuse things even more!!).

Coffee we could get into the olympic spirit...Ill race you to O!

Hey ladies well i am out!

I've gotta stop TTC for 3 months.

DH has been on these pills for his hairloss and they can cause abnormalities which we didn't know about so doc said stop and wait for 3 months so they are flushed out of his system! Also my tests came back okay but DH has very low sperm count so we need to regroup and figure out what to do next!

I hope each and every one of you gets your :bfp: by the time i back here in 3 months time! good luck! x

Rachelle1975-so sorry to see you go-you are probably bummed! Too bad he didn't start taking the medicine after you were already prego but guess thats water under the bridge at this point huh!!! Hopefully the break will mean you will get your BFP as soon as you start trying.

Good luck!

hope the next 3 months goes by fast!!!!!
maybe soe extra tie for hubby to take soe extra vitamis for low count.
Good luck and will keep an eye out for you . here or WTT..

Hope those 3 months fly hun, hopefully but Christmas you will both be rariing to go!

I am so sorry to hear that you have to stop TTC for 3mths but, it is better to be safe than sorry. I didn't BD last night as felt a bit under the weather. I feel better this morning so will collar OH later and get a session in at some point today.

I hope each and every one of you gets your :bfp: by the time i back here in 3 months time! good luck! x

Oh I am really sorry to hear this hun. It will fly by though i am sure. As ChillB said, i guess it gives you some time to get stocked up on vitamins and get your bodies completely prepared and ready to start again!
By the way - I have just started taking Royal Jelly to hopefully help sort my fluctuating hormones out. I read that it can also improve men's sperm count so my DH has just started taking them too! Thought i would mention it to you as it might be worth a shot?!
Don't be a stranger! Let us know how you are going on!

Hiya there. i was AF cd1 13th august, can i join too? xx

In the meantime there is nothing to do other than get plenty of :sex: in (just for research purposes of course! ):wohoo:. lol

Ok. right i couldnt wait until tomorrow so i did a Ic opk test today and there was nothinhg within the first minute of doing the test. the phone rang so i left the test in the bathroom and was only on the phone for 5 mins if that. when i went straight back into the bathroom to flush the test, cleary thinking to myself "you daft cow its too early to test yet of course there wont be another line there" when i got the shock of my life as there lo and behold was a faint line! it was within 6 mins in total and as i was out of the room it may have been there sooner but i didnt see it until i got back. what do you lovelies think? evap or could i indeed be getting ready to ovulate? my chart says i should ovulate tues as was cd1 aug 13th (last wed) but my ticker is saying wed. i am all confused. either way i qwill do another test later. am saving it up as we speak and not drinking too so i can test at 6pm ish and i was planning to start testing from tomorrow anyway. am all excited but want to know what you all think? AND HOW ARE YOU ALL DOING TODAY TOO? THANKS XXXXX

I'm doing well, think I'm starting towards my eggwhite but hoping OV holds off until hubby gets home Sat night!!!!! I posted in your other post, I"m no good with those sticks but I'm sure other ladies can help you and I'm going to use them too if they get here in the mail in the next few days so I better get a crash course real quick from somewhere! I used some earlier this year, first response, and there were two lines, one needed to be as dark or dark than the control (I think) but i just bought the cheapies and i dont know if they work the same way.......

Hey lovely cycle buddies!
I'm doing well too thanks. After 13 months of 'au naturel' other than my body 'telling me when' i've finally decided to give in and use OV sticks! I said i'd never do it, and now here i am! So poppy, we can try them out together if you like?! If it helps, i actually peed on one just before i got AF (for the hell of it as AF was so late and i got desperate!) and i got a faint line then which must have been 2 weeks after OV, so i think maybe on some you always get very faint lines whatever? (or our TTC eyes have automatically developed lines in front of our vision??!!). I haven't a clue when i'm going to ovulate this month, nor when AF will come, so i'm just going to 'wing it' and start using OV sticks this weekend i think and hope for the best!!
Oh well, my motto is, as long as i'm bd-ing, i'm always in with a chance!

yeah someone else in the main forum just dittoed that. it is the first time i have had 2 lines as i mucked about with a few last month while waiting for something to happen either a BFP or for Af to finaly make an appearence. i am going to carry on testing from now anyway so i can see how dark the lines get, i guess its a case of just having a go and seeing then if i am not lucky this cycle i will know more what i am doing for the next one. Glad you all ok and yep, its definitly an excuse to get plenty of:sex: in. yayyyyy! lol
thanks xxxxxxxxx

Hey girls, nearly BD time and I'm in Italy for the weekend so I'll be seducing him with a belly full of pasta and er, wine. Well, it worked last time!
Yep, that's correct 12 August CD1 for me.
I'm going to start using OPKs tomorrow (CD11) but last month when I used then they didn't really work. I think this is because I drink far too much water. I got two faint pinks on CD13 and 14 and as I didn't get any other faint lines I took these as positives as my CM was about right as well. Poppielia, the test line is supposed to be darker than the control so it could be that you are nearly there but as I say, I never got a proper positive and I know that I ovulate. JJF, I think the main thing to remember is to use them late in the day and after three hours of not going to the loo. Hence mine alwayd buggered up!

I'm feeling positive this month - there are enough of us to get a couple of :bfp:s this month, a couple the month after.... I've just booked our holiday to Mallorca at the time I am due to o next cycle. Feeling lucky as the miscarried pregnancy was conceived in Amsterdam and I've got two :sex: sessions abroad coming up.

Happy POAS and :sex: everyone.

Fingers crossed for a May baby boom.

Hxxxxxxx

By the way, does anyone else get a bit worried about peaking too early when you start BDing now? I don't want to wear my OH out or make him think I'm only after one thing!! I don't think I'll start BDing until I get EWCM so tonight he may have a different sort of treat :happydance:!!

Yep i worry about this too lol. I cant realy help it as my appetite increases tenfold the week after Af has gone so ve have been BD'INg it a lot but i am worried we will both be too kanckered by the weekend which is when we need to go for it big time as i should be modt fertile then i was cd1 aug 13th by the way.
Just hope we can keep up the pace. i didnt realise those OPK'S were so complicated to use and decipher. i may look at buying something a bit more expensive and reliable soon me thinks unles we strike gold this cycle...Cmon girls lets here a shout out for some beautiful May babies.WOOP WOOP! lol
Glad its not just me worrying about knackering my Oh too. he reckons hes up for the challenge but i'm not so sure bless him lol

Ahhh we always peak too soon!! To be honest though, in my opinion, i can really see how TTC could easily really mess up your sexlife. I've often worried it could cause irrepairable damage as noone wants to start arguing about bd-ing!!! This time of the month i quite like - i feel full of optimism and good about myself and i know we are bd-ing cos we fancy each other like crazy and love each other like mad! So i would never stop or slow down the bd-ing at this time of the month as i feel its important for our relationship.
That said, we have often peaked by Ov and can't be bothered, but we just try and make the extra effort then - sauce it up a bit, if you know what i mean!!!! :rofl:
DH get's a rest when its Af time anyway!!!!! :rofl:

I know I am so worried about it too, this next week is the biggie so Im gonna give it my all but im scared of over doing it and missing crunchtime!

i'm temping atm, and still not indication of o so i might get some opk done to see if anything at all is happening.

Scan tomorrow - so hoping for some answers!

I'm glad it's not just me then!

It doesn't help that my OH's attitude towards TCC is 'it'll happen when it happens' rather than 'I've POAS, my temps are right, the date is right and I have EWCM LET'S DO IT!!!'. :happydance: So I feel I can't push him around o time which is frustrating. My plan is definitely to get him on the vino in Italy this weekend :rofl:

But we're like you Coffee, we're going through a really good phase, we love each other to bits and have been talking recently about marriage and our future in NZ where we are moving in a couple of years.

CD 11, wet CM and POAS later.

What are everyone's plans for the weekend?

Hx

Im still a bit sick :( But hoping to med mysled today and be ready to start bding away. My cycles are so irregular they can be between 29 and 35 days so ive marked out next week as a huge hotzone and will bd everyday if i can manage!

Morning (or should that be afternoon?!) cycle buddies.

Firstly, Littlestar - Good luck with the scan today. Let us know how you go on :hugs:

Well, we got a bit of practise in last night, iykwim!! :winkwink:
Can't decide when i should start POAS? My cycles have been so bonkers this last 2 or 3 months that part of me thinks it's pointless! To be honest ladies, i am starting to seriously suspect i have something wrong with me now... uh-oh! I *hate* doctors though so plan to give it a little bit longer before i go down that path. My thinking is: so what if they find out i have pcos or whatever else? It doesn't mean i can't have kids, it just means it makes it more difficult right? still in with a chance every month though and knowing exactly what might be wrong with you, doesn't suddenly increase your chances of getting pg does it?! I'm one of those weirdo people that would rather not know about any illnesses i might have! Anyway, its all guesswork on my part, so at the moment, i will live my life as though i am completely fertile and just go for it!

Halle - you lucky thing going to Italy! I am very jealous! Are you OV-ing this weekend then? Awww... you could conceive an Italy baby... how cool would that be?! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Hi Coffee

Do you notice changes in your CM when you O? If so, maybe you could start POAS when you notice this change. It is likely that you have a couple of days before you O after the changes start. I think that's what I may do next time as I think I must use 3 or 4 more than I need to.

Yep, we're going to stay with my OH's Auntie and cousins near Genoa for the bank holiday and I am due to O on Monday/Tuesday so my BD plan is tonight, Sunday Morning and Monday evening. That's roughly every two day some people recommend and I'll be lucky to get any more out of him :rofl:

I need a :bfp: soon - looking like there will be redundancies at work in the next 6 months and if I am pg it is unlikely (but still possible:() that it will be me. I will struggle to do the baby thing if I don't get maternity benefit as I earn quite a bit more than my OH. Whoops, this has turned into something for another thread!

Good luck Littlestar!

Have a great weekend girls

Hx

I earn more than my OH too!! Maybe we'll both end up with stay at home husbands?!

Update for you Ladies!
Had my scan today, got all clear - no sign of any cysts or anything that would explain lack of AF. Got a followup appointment with GP next week to see where we go from here, I suspect that now they've ruled out anything physical it'll be left to nature to pump up the hormones to get me working properly.
I'm still temping and got some IC OPKs on the go atm to see what info i can provide the GP.

Okay, just thought I would put a list together for us ladies of the cycle buddies and where we are currently-update info if you'd like:

CD1 Date NAME OV Day/Date
8/19 JJF 22nd-25th (not sure due to MC)
8/11 Lyns 27th-28th

Nice one hunny!

hey all.......been camping and just back today...
No bd'ing as we had 2 large snuggly dogs with us in truck.
Planning to have a nice shower and pounce on OH when he gets home!
I do not use sticks yet so I have to guess what days. I used to feel O cramps and actually spotted on cd14........but its changed now.
last month had a 25 day cycle..and this month it was 30.
so who knows whats in store for me this month:shrug:

Hey Girls-
So I'm totally confused, I got my nice EWCM yesterday mid day and by evening, it had turned into dryness and my ovaries were very tender last night, so I'm like, please tell me that wasn't all i have and I had 3 hours to get prego, haha. But my temp is still down this morning, dry all day until a few min ago when EWCM appears to have returned, YIPPIE! Funny part is I was on phone with OH telling him all about it (as if he isn't TIRED OF HEARING IT ALL!) and thats when the EWCM came back....wow, thats gotta be further investigated, haha.

Great thing about the EWCM leaving yesterday and returned today is it does give me some hope that it can all hold off until Tom night, yes I know, you all are tired of hear about how he is out of town until Sat night hehe, ALMOST HERE and time to bed like there is no tomorrow!!!!!!!

BTW, little disappointed that my new internet cheapies (great price here on baby and bump now) didn't make it here yet, maybe tomorrow...

Wierd....my CBFM still has me on low's, but I just did an OPK and got a line....not fully positive but darker than any line I had last month, when I actually did ovulate!

MAybe it will go high tomorrow...hubby's asleep now, so maybe I'll grab him for a quick morning :sex: tomorrow just in case! :lol:

Sounds like a good plan, better to get that last Bed in our you will kick your butt later :)

JJF- good to hear the EWCM came back....Just in time for hubbies return!!!!!!

Lyns.....Sounds like tommorrow might be good for catching an egg!!!!!!

Oh my goodness. Well this morning my CBFM jumped straight to peak/ovulation without even a high.

Hubby did indeed get immediately grabbed!

I can only put it down to the combination of VitB6 to lengthen my luteal pahse (I just sorta thought it would add a couple of days on the end rather than bring Ov forward) and the EPO....which certainly has increased my EWCM....the pre-seed was overkill to be honest, but we used it to make for a 'happy place' for :spermy: IYKWIM.

Woohoo...I'm surprised but happy! C'mon eggy'!

Hi Girlies:hi:

It sounds like we all should OV at about the same time give or take a couple of days. I am hoping to OV Monday 25th or Tuesday 26th. I have some OV symptoms out break of spots on right hand side of neck and under chin, boobs are tender, on/off cramping pain which started last night and, I feel like I want to jump my DH at every opportunity!!! The last one is a new OV symptom as prior to my m/c I used to get really bad pains I might still get those by the looks of things. Oh well I'll have ab DH to grab DH later as he is still in bed with a headache as, he had far too much to drink last night:rofl::rofl: I was sober and driving so I am fine:rofl::rofl:

I think your right Shmoo, we all seem to be ovulating about the same time.
I awaiting a high temp tomorrow to confirm ovulation, so fingers crossed.
If i have ovulated then it means my cycle is becoming regular rather than silly lengths! (81 & 56 days since march)

Littlestar - I know what you mean hun. Since my m/c at the end of May I have had a 34 & 42 day cycles in that order!!! They have gotten longer!!! My longest cycle was 42 days when I came off of BCP at the end of Feb then, I went into a 28day where I fell preggers. Hopefully I will now go back to a more normal and sensible 28 day cycle. If I don't fall this cycle as long as :witch: shows up on 08/09 i will be strangely happy as, it means back to a 28 day cycle.

Well Ov crept up and caught me by surprise a littel. 3 days earlier than rpevious, which considering i suffer LPD is a good thing!

So thats me officially in 2ww land! Keep me away from those peesticks! lol!

We will try but, we are also POAS addicts and just can't seem to help ourselves:rofl::rofl:

Hey Ladies,
Sadly my OPK never arrived but hubby did get home Sat night and gave me a few rounds of swimmers, hehe. Strangest thing and I need some advice!!! I had some MAJOR EWCM on Sat before hubby got home and I was SO excited but it seems to come for a few hours and then I become dry again....is this normal??? From what I read in my book I'm thinking once it really gets here, it should be constant for x number of days until I ov and then i go dry...whats with the occasional Egg stuff and then dryness, help! My temps are still lower so I don't think I have Ov yet, which is good but guess that means I'm in for a longer cycle :( Before MC were 31 days, after MC was 37 days so guess I'm headed for a 30-? day cycle. I'm just gonna keep bedding until I get the higher temps since I can't figure out the eggwhite. Good luck to everyone who had a great weekend and especially those that ovulated! LYNS-no sticks yet, haha!!!

not to sound offtopic but what does CD mean?

I believe your talking about Cycle Day (CD). so day you get your period is cd1 (1st day of cycle) and that would continue counting until your next period which would then become cd1 again...

Well good luck to you shadowsilk....hope that nasty :witch: stays away!

So, I am officially considering myself 1DPO. We managed to DTD a few times over the weekend, may do it once more tonight and then a rest for a couple of days.:sleep:

I plan (hahaha!) to test at 11DPO....AF is due at 12DPO and I have to be realistic and say thats there ain't a hope in hell of my being good enough to wait until she's late before I POAS! Probably wont get that far! Thank god for internet cheapies huh!

Fingers...everything crossed! xxx

Got my first +opk today - hubbys gonna get some tonight!!

You go Celine!!!!

My FF chart says that I am probably in a fertile phase so grabbed DH and got a session in. I think I am having EWCM just not loads like I did prior to my m/c. I do feel constantly wet downstairs so, I am taking this as a good sign

Me too!

Hiya girlies!

Hope you all had lovely weekends. We've just had a long bank holiday weekend so I've been away from here for 3 days.

I'm CD 15 and with you symptom s

I'm not 100% sure that I O'd last night or this morning because for some reason OPKs never work - I just get a faint line for 2 days around day 13/14. But today and for the last two days I've had EWCM and last night and this morning mild period type pains and stabbing lower abdomen pain and my cervix has been high and soft.

We've just spent the weekend in Italy with my OH's relatives and managed to BD (very quietly) yesterday morning and the morning before and we'll get another in tonight.

Keeping everything crossed for all of us this month.

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!

Hx

This is going to be far, far TMI but has anybody ever noticed a cloudy substance (I presume semen) in otherwise clear EWCM after BDing? I had this yesterday which means although some must have got away it is doing it's job!

This is going to be far, far TMI but has anybody ever noticed a cloudy substance (I presume semen) in otherwise clear EWCM after BDing? I had this yesterday which means although some must have got away it is doing it's job!

Funny you should mention it because yes I had similar. I also seem to have had (sorry also TMI) mixed types of CM....it was rather watery with lots of stretchy EWCM in it IYKWIM.

We did use Pre-seed too, so goodness knows what wss what!

I had that today! It looked like 20cm long ewcm but might of had spermies in there helping it along

Okay girls, I POAS OPK yesterday and the second line was very very very faint but then this morning my temp spiked, I so happy to see that spike because I was becoming very confused about the temps/dates/feelings in ovaries/EWCM disappearing at times etc. I've gotten a lot of bedding in and I think I'm going to go with the temps, which i hope don't like, and assume that I ov maybe 2 days ago on Sun since the cheapy POAS showed really nothing. Interested thing is todays is high temp is CD17, add 14 days, I'll be at CD31 which is the same cycle I was on for months before MC, so seems like body is returned to its previous cycle lenght, good to know!

How many of us have OV and are in the 2ww? Seems like Lyn is, Me,....we need to get our list together soon of where everyone is.

The 2ww is hard but its also good to know that is out of my hands now, I've done all I could do :)

Forgot one thing...just remembered, I didn't know how to use the cheapy sticks and when I dipped the stick in my cup of pee (TMI) I only kept it in there about 15 seconds, so now that I think about it, had I left it in there the 30 seconds I just read someone keeps it in there for, that line may have been darker......who knows, ha..

hi lovelies i am on cd 14 today and should be ovulating today if i base it on a 28 day cycle. the problem is i have no ewcm, the cm is creamy instead and i have no symptoms so far. i started usng opks fri, thought they was all negative until i have looked at them all side by side when it was apparent that sundays was the darkest line of all. still not as darkas the control line but not far of it i would say. since the darker line sunday the tests have gotten fainter and fainter until i can barely see them so would that\ sound right to you girls if for example the test was in deed a positive opk on sunday? i am confused to be honest because i have no ovulation symptoms and creamy cm. We have been BD'ING it every day for the past 8 days so hopefuly we are gonna strike lucky at some point. the problem is i think i am now getting thrush from all the BD'ing we have gotten up to so i am feeling a little grotty because of that. any advice girlies? i could realy do with your help. its my first month using opk's and i am finding them a bit confusing. we not doing temps yet! may think about that at a later date. thanks xxxx

Im almost there (me thinks) in the 2ww, so still bding until i see that temp spike, Im expecting to see it tomorrow.
Poor hubbs sprained sumthing bding last night, yet is still keen to cathc that egg tonight.
Dedication!

Give that man a medal......
hope he didn't sprain his doodle!!!!!!!

:rofl::muaha:

No he didnt sprain that thank goodness!

. i started usng opks fri, thought they was all negative until i have looked at them all side by side when it was apparent that sundays was the darkest line of all. still not as darkas the control line but not far of it i would say. since the darker line sunday the tests have gotten fainter and fainter until i can barely see them so would that\ sound right to you girls if for example the test was in deed a positive opk on sunday?

Sweetie, i have never got a line on an OPK anywhere near as dark as the control line. Now, I am using dipstick OPK's (internet Cheapies) and a CBFM and i am getting a completely positive reading of Ov on the CBFM, so depeding on what brand you are using, you may well find that even a smidgen of a line is all you get at Ov....despite the instructions!

Poppielia-I was going to same the same thing about the OPK's...I just used one yesterday for the first time but my friend mentioned that her line NEVER gets as dark as the control line. She said she keeps them so she can compare them each day...thought that was a good suggestion.

I never get positives either and I use internet cheapies. I get a very, very faint line so I may just give uo now and use CM and cervix position to indicate ovulation as I think I can tell pretty well from that.
Although they do say you have LH in your body anyway so I guess if you go from nothing all month long to faint positives it must mean something.

Funny thing happened last night. We BD'd before sleeping and then, in the middle of the night I woke up to 'Sorry baby I'm too tired'. 'Huh?' I replied sleepily. Then I realised I had my hand on his 'bits' playing with them :rofl: Must have been having nice dreams!!!

Anyway, I think I'll be in the 2ww from tomorrow so I'll be on your list!

Hx

Hi all,

Just wondering if I could join you girls? I am suppose to ovulate today according to FF. I got my positive OPK yesterday and my CM has dried up so its a case of just waiting and seeing ......

We are well covered as we have been :sex: for the past three nights and we will add in another tonight for good luck!

Well onwards and upwards onto 1dpo again.........

Welcome Kittiekat! Several of us are now in the 2ww, YIPPIE. I'm feeling very relaxed at the moment and excited to ride out this 2ww and hopefully get a BFP at the end of it!!!

Sorry guys, I've completely lost my way and don't know where i am this cycle! I did an OV stick Monday (first time! whoop whoop!) and i got a faint-ish line. Did one yesterday and the line was even fainter. Now i'm confused!!! Shouldn't the line get progressively darker every day? Does this mean we've missed our chance? I don't get it!!!!!!!!!!! arrggghhhh!!!!! Based on my last cycle being 49 days and the one before that being 42 days, i didn't expect to OV for over a week or more yet?! (Although previous to these two stupid cycles i had always been a regular 33 day girl, so decided to start testing Monday to be on safe side in case my cycles went back to normal).
I'm so confuddled by this whole thing!!! 13 months TTC and i still haven't a clue what my body is doing! How can this be??!!!

Oh no coffee i hope you didnt miss it!

Coffee I am SO sorry, I don't understand those sticks either, sounds like a lot of people are having trouble with them, eek. I think you said you DON"T do the temps, is that right. This is my first month doing them and I am LOVING it, I feel like I understand and have some part in this game rather than just spending my time in the bed, hahaha. I guess just keep doing the POAS OPK's maybe that faint wasn't right but your still due to get some lines later this week?

Hi Coffee,

I don't get these sticks either yet. I started my over four weeks ago as I never seem to know when I will ovulate! Anyway to cut a long story short about two weeks I got a very thin but very dark line and thought that must have been my positive but it didn't quite add up with my CM or CP so I kept going with the OPK and the :sex:!! Yesterday I got the darkest line I have ever got so thought yet again that was it but low and behold today (day 35 for petes sake!) I got a darker line than the test line Woo Hooo!

What I am trying to say (in a very long winded way lol) is don't stop using them yet as you may not have got your true positive yet......... I have just bought a saliva testy thing and used it today and it has clearly showed a ferning effect which the book says is great! I haven't had any difficulty in seeing the ferning so may be u may want to have a try at using one of these. They are only around £20 and they are re-usable so you don't have to keep buying more sticks. Just a thought for next cycle if that BFP doesn't come your way this month, but fingers crossed you won't even need it!!

Awww, thanks guys, you're lovely!
Yeah, I shall keep at it with the sticks this week as i just don't believe it really!! This is why i haven't tried OV sticks or temps or anything before though cos i know what i am like and i knew i would just think "Pah! stupid stick is broken" and not take any notice!!! Hopefully it might be a bit darker when i test later on when i get home. I've not been too well these last few days (just a nasty cold) so wondering if that might have affected it all anyway as i've not really been eating and drinking as normal.
In over a year being off the pill my cycles have never been less than 33 days, so it would be pretty ironic if the one month i decided to start trying to track things it suddenly went mega short after two mega long cycles!! You've got to laugh huh??!! (well laugh or cry, i'm never quite sure so i think i'll just stick to laughing for now - if i start crying i might never stop!! ha ha!!)

Okay girls, I can't believe I'm about to go out on this limb and say this...unlike me...but here goes.....so according to Fertility Friend (and I agree, hehe) I ov on CD16/Sunday the 24th so today I'm 3 dpo and my (TMI) nipples have been so tender today. I NEVER NEVER NEVER have sore nipples, not even during AF, before AF, etc. I know it is SO early for me to be saying things like that and talking about symptoms but the reason I'm excited about this is not only the obvious, I could be prego, but with my 3 MC babies I had minimal/next to nothing symptoms up until the MC's, so for me to have this prego sign, not only means I might be prego, it would mean that in my mind its a sticky one, a good pregnancy finally. (BTW, with my two children, during pregnancy I was sick as a dog and have nearly all the signs but none really with the 'bad' pregnancies).

Sorry that was so long, sorry to seem like a freak already talking about symptoms but just wanted to share :) Okay...back to reality!

I was just laughing so hard at my stupidity and wanted to share...I decided I check out the bb's to just get a base line of what they looked like in case the old blue veins start showing (never paid attention to any of that before) and I actually saw some to my suprise. For about 4 seconds I actually thought to myself, wow, I wonder if I ovulated earlier than I thought now that I seem to have 2 symptoms...then it occured to me that hubby was out of town for 8 days, right up until the 24 hours before I ovulated...hahahaha...so if I got prego sooner than Sunday, I guess it was impaculate conception, ha!!!

I get excited when I see the blue veins............but then realize I have them even during AF.
I am now all stuffed up and bitchy.
Sense of smell is so strong...and I have been nausous all day until supper. I ate breakfast and lunch today so not hunger nausea.

So thank you body for getting me all worked up on what may only be 2dpo.
F-you:finger:
:rofl:


probably all just ovulation signs........so will still be getting busy all week long. We're going camping again this weekend..Sat-Mon..so planning on thursday maybe friday and a quickie Sat morning.

Well I am CD18 today and FF has not showed me OV or that it is even detected!!!! Looks like this is going to be a longer than 28 day cycle for me!!!!

FF told me I O-ed so now 3dpo joining you ladies in 2ww :)

Hi all,

As I mentioned earlier this is my first time charting with OPK's and BBT and I just have a quick question for you lovely ladies :blush::blush:

Can your temps dip on the actual day of ovulation? I have been only temping for the last couple of days (around 4 due to late arrival of therm) but I have generally been under the 36.4 area and this morning I dropped to 36.18 so me being me I re-temped about three hours later and it had raisen again to 36.4. Just wondered what anyone thought, FF has me on O day today................:sex: :sex: :sex: :happydance:

Kittiekat, I don't temp at the mo, but from what I understand your temp has to be taken at the same time each day within 10 minutes of first waking, so your second reading wouldn't be worth anything.

If you look at a few people chart on FF you'll see that several peoples temps do dip down just prior to ovulation and then a sustained rise for 3 days from that point, so it's possible that this is when you are due to ovulate, but you'd need that rise to confirm it afterwards.

In this instance I'd tend to be guided by your other bodily signs, CM, CP, Ovulation Pain, and the OPK's as I wouldn't have thought that 4 days would be long enough to get a totally accurate indication through temps, but use it as a good start for nect cycle - although hopefully you won't need it!

Morning cycle buddies!
Well i did another OPK yesterday and got a mega faint line! So faint it was barely there. Had a panicked BD session last night (even tho i'm ill!!) just in case! OV sticks tell you when you are about to ovulate i think? then you should OV anywhere between 12 and 48 hours after that???? So if eggy lasts for 24 hours, you never know- might just have caught it?? (I'm living in dreamworld i know!!!). That said, i still don't believe i have OV'd yet. Think it might have been a random hormone fluctuation as it's just too early for me. Still thinking i am more likely to OV next week.

Kittiekat - sorry - clearly i'm not one for advising on charting but good luck!
JJF - Oooohhh that's exciting - i always think the biggest symptom you could ever have is intuition and just knowing that something feels different to normal.
Good luck everyone else!!

Am i the only one left thats possibly (or not!) waiting for OV then??!! Nooooooo don't leave me behind on my own!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Lyns

Thanks for the reply. I know fours days isn't really worth anything but just thought I would ask incase it happens again next month. I took the first temp at 5.00 am as I was disturbed my DH who was off to work and since it says 'on waking' I took it. I then went back to sleep for around 3-3 1/2 hours so it was around 8 - 8:30 ish. When I looked up BBT it says temps should be fine after three hours of sleep so was wondering which one to go off. Hope that makes a little more sense lol.

I will be glad to get back to work next week (I work in a school so still on school hols) as I will be up at set times then and won't feel silly having to wake myself up just to temp lol. I will also be too busy to keep obsessing over everything during the 2ww....

KittieKat and Lyns, you both bring up a good point, and I thought i had it all down pat now but Lyns said something I'm wondering about...I was thinking you had to take the temp BEFORE you got up and out of bed, not with in the first 10 min, meaning if you start moving about, your temp goes up quickly. Just curious, not trying to argue. This morning I realized my therm was in the other room and I was just laying there like, UGH, I can't get up to get it but I Really want to temp. Tried to wake up hubby to get it (I'm sure he would have LOVED that) and he didnt' wake up but funny that about 2 min later he hoped right out of bed, think he was faking, hahahaha. I got up and got the therm very quick and hoped back in bed and laid still, haha, and it seemed fine but I would love to know if someone can clarify the 10 min versus taking it while still lying still in bed before standing....

Coffee-surely your not alone :) We havn't heard from some of early joiners so perhaps they are going to return and be around the same cycle as you!

Celine-interesting it finally said you OV'd but it said it was 3 days ago? Seems odd that the monitor tells you so late but who am I to argue, hehe..what does your FF say?

BTW-ChillBIll, LOVE the F-you to your body, that had me laughing out loud at 6am this morning!!! and as for Coffee saying it could be total intution, Thats what I was feeling last night but of course today, I'm feeling foolish, haha

JJF- hope i made you smile..hahahaha

Up til last year I could lay down and feel myself ovulate.
Now....symptoms are all over the place, ealry cycles, late cycles...i hope I am not headed towards longer cycles.
NOT happy with my body right now. But I will treat it with respect during this 2ww.


My 3dpo ??? symptoms are nausea ( usually get it towards AF)
feel very very moody and cranky... feel like I am getting a cold or sick.
Just a real shitty feeling.
Its a Pajama day today......I'm gonna look out my window and watch my humming birds, snuggle with my dogs and cats, watch girlie movies all day and night OH is out for the day/night. Wish I had a big bath tub to soak in tho'
Oh well...........

Okay girls in the 2ww-trying not to symptom watch but after my last night post about nips sensitive and veins....tonight i have MAJOR cramps in very low abdomen, tad bit nausea, and (TMI) a tight/tingle feeling in the hoohoo area. To be honest I felt the egg implant 9d post ov with my recent MC and these pains feel just like that did, but I'm only 4d po so I'm really thinking its WAY too early. Hope I'm not driving yall mad with these symptom posts, hubby's tired of listening to me.

No problem ....obsess away!!!!
haha
we do it every cycle.........
my symptoms are usually the same.....i keep track so I don't jump to conclusions....
of course its been different this month...

have you seen twoweekwait DOT com ( website with tonnes of symptoms)
I am curious to find out how long it takes fertilized egg to get to uterus and actually start implant.

Do you have pimples yet???
My chin is covered and i usually don't get any until AF.

I will wait til 7 or 8 dpo before I list all my symptoms. hehe

Coffee don't worry hun I am still waiting for OV. FF hasn't indicated that OV has been detected yet but, my temp rose again today for 2nd day on the trot all I need is for it to rise agin tomorrow and sun then FF should tell me that I OV'd around CD18 which was yesterday. I have changed my ticker to 35 days as, if I OV around CD18 it means I wont have a 28 day cycle as I hoped more 30ish day one.

Well am trying sooooo hard not to get my hopes up over symptons this month. I started this cycle believing it wasn't going to be 'my time' - with my cycle messing me about etc, but everything else seems to be falling into place and we did :sex: at the right times!

CHILLbilly....I found that other website before I came here. Spent a couple of weeks floating around, but I got so fed up at them posting everything they pee'd on and then everyone saying they could def see a line when it was utterly obvious there was nothing there! I swore then that I would remain level-headed....ha!

CD19 for me....and an absolute pleasure to be able to look forward to testing in just a few days instead of the whole of the 2ww stretching out in front of me! I've been very good so far and left the sticks in the drawer....I shall think about reaching for one maybe next Tuesday!

Hi everyone

I'm just a day behind you Lyns - CD 18 and if my temps are up for a third time tomorrow morning FF will predict ovulation on Wednesday CD16. So Shmoo, I'll be with you if that happens. We BD'd CD 13, 14, 15 and 16 so there's a good a chance as any this month.

Btw, I had creamy CM this morning after dry CM yesterday. Mean anything?

I've also got some good news on my boy front. You may remember me posting to say that he isn't really into tcc. Or rather, he's not avoiding but doesn't want to talk about and last month got a bit narky about BDing around O because he guessed what I was up to :rofl:
Anyway, last night after a couple of cheeky vodkas (bad Halle) I asked him if we could start making babies and he said he thought we already were :happydance: I told him there was a good chance this month and he seemed happy so I am :cloud9: I suspected this though because one time this week I was on top when he came (tmi, sorry) and before pulling out he flipped me over and then stayed there for a few minutes. I have never talked about it being better with me underneath but I guess it is common sense.

Now he's gone on a stag do to Barcelona and I'm going to miss him loads but I have lots of nice things planned and I'm so happy it should fly by.

There are a lot of us at the same time in our cycle so here's to lots of silly symptom spotting next week. Speaking of which, Chillbilly - the pimples are great. I woke up the morning after my bfp with about 20 new spots on my chin. Never thought I'd be happy to see that!

Hxx

Hey everyone, I dont have a monitor i just temp and poas, but I dont think im v good at it tbh i always seem to see them as positve, this morning my temp is .3 below the cover line urghhh! when i woke up again an hour later my temp was .3 above coverline and I am also thinking i didnt stick the thermo in props so now ff has unconfirmed o-day *sigh*

Mind you if I wake up 2morrow and its high again they might reconfirm i do hope that is the case.
Unless it wasnt o-time which is wierd cos i poas?? Gonna poas later today and hoping i can finally see what a negative looks like!

Hi celine,

What level of OPK's are you using? I used to use the 30 (miu or something like that lol) and i never seemed to get a line darker or as dark as. So I swapped to the 15 (miu) ones and I have finally had a line that was clearly darker than the test line Woo hoo!

What I am trying to say is that some woman need to use different strengths of OPK's, if you are using the 15 (miu) ones and getting constant positives than you may need to use the 30 ones? Or if you are using the 30 then try the 40 ones....there is a website that explains all this much better then me and when I find it again i will post the address for you.

Anyway, it was just a thought from this weird brain of mine........ :happydance:

Tx kittie, will see what else I can find here, I have only found one brand!! It seems this one is a 40!

there is a website that explains all this much better then me and when I find it again i will post the address for you.



Kittiekat....are you thinking of

www.peeonastick.com ??

I think I already gave up on the poas opks, they seem to confuse me to some degree, but that control line on mine is WAY WAY dark, I can't imagine my line every getting darker that the control line. Just my opinnion.

Thought I'd start our 2ww list but after looking back, it seems there's very few of us or I'm just too slow to figure out all the dates, hehe.....

I was and FF unconfirmed but im pretty sure will be reconfirmed 2morrow :P My temp this morning was 35.7 and my coverline is 35.73 (rather petty!) am tempted to add the .3 back to make it show o-day again! Will let you know what happenes tomorrow :)

That was a good one..well good if you like to obsess...hehehe

JUST found the old post and Lyn is right..countdown to.......
guess what i'll be doing for the next hour...LOL

I was thinking it was going to be something that you input what yours were and then it would pop up the % chance that you were prego, haha....since I had that fancy image in my mind I'm unimpressed with the site now, hahahahaha

Maybe they left to join "TEAM......"....;)
hehe

Didn't you know....we've re-named ourselves.

Kittie ovulated on Aug. 28th, today is Friday 29th and she is 1dpo

I wondered over here to see how you are all getting on.... and first stumbled on the posts where you were talking about birth horra stories!!! made me cringe!! what are you lot like... anything to help with the 2ww right?? Im on team PMA this month... and to be honest im less bothered this month.. i was all out for it last month but hey im more relaxed this month so who knows!

Good luck girlies :) ill be back in a few days!!

I wondered over here to see how you are all getting on.... and first stumbled on the posts where you were talking about birth horra stories!!! made me cringe!!


I don't like those stories...........lol
I made the mistake of looking a pic of a face forward birth and thought
OH FUCK NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sorry bout language:blush:...but if you saw that pic..you would say the same

I'd rather talk about the gas they give you during birth..LOL
my sister loved it and actually had lines on her face from the mask. :rofl::rofl:

All I can say to that is OUCH!!!

I ovulated on Aug 25, today is the 29th, I am 4 dpo

same here amber......how are you feeling?

I have felt bloated and crampy all day to day. How are you feeling?

I am still waiting for FF to confirm OV. I will let you know as soon as I do. Hopefully I will have another raised temp tomorrow morning so that will be 4 in a row and then they will confirm as CD17 or CD18

My chart has changed it's mind up to yesterday i was 7dpo now it un-determined!
Argh! anyway just to be sure we're still GETTING IT ON!

Well, I'm 7dpo today and have been a very good girl so far! I've not pee'd on one stick!

Why is it that you know its too early, you know the result would be BFN, you know it would depress you.......yet you do still get thsi irrepressible urge to 'just see' in case! Grrrr!

My abdomenal cramps have gone, although yesterday I had a twinge or two of backache, but more than anything this month I just feel FAT! I have no idea if thats 2ww obsessing or me just having had too many cream cakes, but I'm not one for normally being like that!

Hallie 77 ovulated on Aug. 27th, today is sat 30th and she is 3dPO
ChillBilly ovulated on Aug. 25th, today is sat 30thand she is 5dPO

KittieKat ovulated on Aug. 28th, today is Sat 30th she is 2dpo

Lyns, when you thinking of POAS? I was lucky last time at 10dpo but I felt the egg implant at 9dpo last time. Tuesday I will be 10dpo so I'd like to test but I'm feeling too scared to see a BFN. I know I can't wait much longer cause I'm an addict but its so heartbreaking that I wish I had the will power to wait about 5 more weeks, haha.

Chillbilly-what about you?

I hear ya Lyns....I am off to the beach......and no way am I putting my bikini on.
I'm a little curvier then I was last year..BUT getting the bloat!
love the big boobs BUT not the pudgey waist!
thank goodness for long full hippy skirts.

I know I can't wait much longer cause I'm an addict but its so heartbreaking that I wish I had the will power to wait about 5 more weeks, haha.

Chillbilly-what about you?

I'm going to wait for AF UNLESS I get some amazing symptoms.
Would love an early :bfp: but seeing those negatives sure is a kick in the ass.
No tests in house so I am not tempted to test.
i am strong..I will not be tempted....LOL

CHILLbilly....send some of that willpower this way hun!

I think Monday/Tuesday for me, probably....last time I didn't test until 12 dpo but it was like, bang...a strong immediate BFP, so I may get lucky a little earlier this time. No use kidding myself I could hang on any longer! lol!

I have a tube of about 20 IC's and 2 x CB digi's, but like the champagne in this house, they will only get cracked open for a special occasion! ie when i think there is a very good chance of that little 'pregnant' word flicking on screen!

Maybe if I'm not lucky this month then a major diet next month! :rolleyes:

How many times have you been told......get drunk and you'll conceive?

I don't drink during 2ww as well as week leading up to O.
I find non alcoholic beer tastes ok and actually enjoy it. Plus I can still drive and walk straight as well as not slur when talking to someone...LOL anyway......
So when I get asked why? and then tell me to have a few and it will happen...I act polite but think...F you....what the feck do you know about my body?

I'm going to start telling ppl I am a recovering alcoholic and if I have one drink it may kill me.
See what kind of advice they give me then! HA
I have so much more to rant about...but need a bit of time to think it over......



I was also told by someone to NOT have kids as they are a bad idea.
Bad for your relationship......they suck the life out of you....ect.
By someone with 3 boys( she started when she was 16)...who had a MC at 5 months BUT wants another with her present BF.
What kind of advice is that?????
some people...and of course she was drunk .
i need to meet some new friends.....
:hissy::hissy::hissy::hissy:

I think I need to pop over to the PMA thread....I need a pick me up....

Well FF has said I OV'd on CD18 28th Aug and I am 3DPO today 31/08 :happydance::happydance: I am offically in the 2ww:happydance::happydance:

Congrats Schmoo,

Hey girls, cramps a few nights ago for an hour, still sensitive boobs, big zit now on chin, veins on boobs, headache last night...I'm loving it all, ha. I'm really hoping i feel the egg implant again since I was lucky enough to feel it last cycle but even if I don't , my intuition is telling me this is the real deal! Someone please kick me in the next few weeks if I was wrong, okay, haha. I really should keep my mouth closed and not get too excited but it is SO hard when your so focused on your body and its 'signs' you know.

More and more of you are joining the 2ww...I'm thinking 3 or so more will as soon as those monitors and ff tell you it finally happened, seems like those things have a few of you jumping threw hoops, or should I say hoping in and out of bed, ha.

lol! I hope this is the real deal for you too!

When are you testing?

dont forget me i apparently ovulated the 25th and now 6dpo

Morning girls

What did everyone get up to over the weekend to keep their mind off the 2ww? My boy was away on a stag do so I had a couple of girls nights out. I figured at 2 and 3dpo implantation wouldn't have happened anyway so I could take advantage and have a few glasses of wine!

How is the 2ww going?
Because I have been online all weekend FF confirmed ovulation on 27th Aug so I am 5dpo as I thought. Far too early for symptoms but that hasn't stopped me wondering... I fell fast asleep on the tube this morning and had dreams within a couple of minutes then woke up feeling shaky and weird. Obviously preggers and not a normal Momday morning:rofl:

Chilly - it's sounding positive - any more news?

Someone at work has announced their pregnancy which makes her about a month b
