ok so I'm new to this forum so hello everyone.

Not sure where to start with this so here goes (deep breath)

I'm 25 and have been with DB for 8 yrs now, we have a 2yr old son and have been trying for number 2 for about five months.

TTC is all new to me as my first pg'cy was very big suprise (was on the pill). Have only started charting this month, its all so confusing, BBT and CD have no idea what its all about.

The only thing i've managed to figure out is my OD, which i think is tommrrow (last started on 26th of nov, so somebody correct me if i'm wrong, i have a 31 day cycle). so safe to say will be at it like 's for the next few days .

Well thats it for now will try to keep this up to date as much as possible

ok so today is supposed to be my OD, but i think I may have calculated wrong or something bec I don't feel ike I am O.

I've been recording my temp and it hasn't gone up, its actually lower since yesterday I'm thinking now I might not have a 31 day cycle, i guess i'll just have to see what happens.

will def tonight just in case, (fingers crossed)

Hi Kristine, your temp won't go up intil the day after you ovulate, in fact if it has dropped today then it more than likely is your ovulation day today! Best of luck TTC x x

Thanks for the advice!!!
This charting buisness has me all confused, so I'm very grateful for the help.

For your journal

Its quite possible youre about to O, alot of womens charts have a dip before the temps rise.

just a quick Qu, how do I put blinkies and tickers on my posts?

Instead of typing the the Quick Response box at the bottom of the page, click either Post Reply (on the left bottom of page) or the Go Advanced button under the Quick Response box...you will see blinkies there and the more link will give you even more. Click on one to enter it into your message.

Well I'm now officially in the 2WW period, this is the bit a really hate, but as its nearly christnas and I have so much to do hopefully it will keep my mind of it.

I'm going to try really hard not to test untill I'm at least two or three days late (fingers crossed that happens), not like every month for the past five, I buy the early response ones and test a couple of days before AF is due. I have to be the most impatient person ever.

I really hope this is the month for me, I'm pretty sure I've timed it right, but if not at least we're having fun trying!!!

Ok have to go now Riley just pulled over the Christmas Tree AGAIN!!!, and then he tries to sit on it. And I want to do this all over again. Am I mad? (yes most probably) But we love him really.

Well its been nearly a week since I posted here so heres whats been happening

About five or six das past O, I started feeling really tired and dizzy and BBs were sore and tender, so of course my hopes shot up, (Especially when OH commented that BBs looked bigger - and trust me that guy NEVER notices anything different e.g had my hair dyed last month and he still hasn't noticed.)


Anyway was felling quite happy, that I was feeling so crappy, but when I woke up this morning....nothing, BBs looked back to normal size and not sore or anything, still a little tired but nothing to write home about, have been brought down to earth with a big bang. I'm really dissapionted as I had myself convinced this was it for us.

I don't know why I put myself thru this every month, its torture, I keep saying I'm going to sit back and relax that it will happen when its supposed to, but we all know its easier said then done right.

Well thats me for now, gotta go, the house is upside down and Riley has to be picked up from Nursery soon.

Good Luck to everybody testing this week.

Well I got my yesterday!!!!!!

I decided I couldn't wait any longer to test, I just had a freeling I was PG, so I tested with clearblue digital yesterday using FMU and it was positive (que lots of jumping around the bathroom) I went straight to the Pharmacy and bought another clearblue normal one (had to see two lines to really believe it) and that was postive too. I'm so happy, have been going around with a stupid grin for the past two days.

Was telling OH for the past week I was pretty sure I was PG, he kept telling me "not to get my hopes up" and "just wait and see", I told you so never sounded so sweet before.

If anybody is interested here (and still are) my symptoms.


Extreme tiredness about 5-6 days after O
Dizzy and lightheaded.
Sore/Tender/swollen BBs - warning stay away from all toddlers when this happens especially the ones who like to use them as jumping castles. Ouch!!!


I know I havn't been a member of this forum for very long, but I wanted to say thank you to all you lovely girlies, reading all your posts helped me get through the dreaded TWW, and I just want to wish everybody the best of luck in getting your BFP, you all deserve it!!. I'll keep loggin on to see how everybody is doing if thats ok. (haha your'e stuck with me now)

Ok I'm off to change my ticker.
