Well done choklatemunkey.

Oh and my llama now has a broken tail

You know the aero ad were the man tries to act all sexy but comes across to me like a smarmy git? And he goes 37 degrees, body temperature.................my arse my body temps not been that all month

God I say some random things

 

[Trudyscrumptious76]

God I say some random things

I love your randomness Skairdy. I don't feel so alone when I'm random. ..

Flippin eck choklate I'll never be able to match that. I'm not gonna test I'm gonna be strong and wait for nature to take it's course. Yeah right truth is I'm broke and can't afford any tests!

 

[Charmed]

Thanks Choklatemunky.....I have now pm'd Kittykins my link......pretty obvious now that I should have done that LOL.

My temps are all over the place though so don't know if that is the 'norm'?

 

[choklatemunky]

Hi Charmed!
no worries.
Tbh it is pretty normal for your temps to be higher during your AF and then go down.....they will go back up again when you ov. It is hard to see a pattern at first, particularly in the first half of your cycle.....its mainly when you get the temp rise at ov that things seem a bit clearer and you notice a pattern. I really wouldnt worry at all at the moment


If you look at the chart below - thats your and mine put together - yours is the blue line and mine's the green one - look how close the charts are for the first six days...you are a few days ahead of me but Im sure they will still look pretty similar in a few days - you really dont have anything to worry about hun

(hope that helps! x)

 

[choklatemunky]

oh - Also - just noticed that you have put todays temp in on 20th feb but its only the 19th - thats why you have the dotted line as it thinks you have missed a temp

 

[Charmed]

Ah thats what the dotted line was all about lol, I have now corrected it.

Thanks so much for going to all the effort of comparing our charts, it looks fairly similar to your and as you say I hope I will see more of a pattern around OV.

That really helped me see more clearly and put my mind at rest...thanks.

 

[Chill]

Wow choklatemunky that was a mega stalk, well done

I hate this bit. Not as much as the 2ww. I guess it must be the ov-ing bit that I enjoy

 

[choklatemunky]

Haha - we get AF and WAIT for her to go
we WAIT for a few days before we get down to some serious BDing
whilst Bding we are still WAITING for ov
we WAIT to see a line on those OPKs
once we ov we WAIT for our temps to rise
then we WAIT to see whether we have been successful in our little quests
WAITING to see whether the 2 lines appear or WAITING to see whether AF comes and then we start again....

Good job we are all so bloody patient isnt it!

 

[Chill]

oh don't say that, when you wait for a bus 3 come at once

Kitty - Meant to say thanx again, you were bob on with my late ov last month. I'm so glad I'm charting, I don't think I've ever had such a long cycle, so I would have been convinced I was PG otherwise. Think I might be starting to get the hang of this charting lark now.

 

[gerb]

iv got a hollow circle today- what does that mean??
i cant believe af is due in 2days and i havent been testing!!!

 

[Chill]

Hi Gerb,

I get that when I enter the temp in a bit later/earlier than usual. It's just to remind you that it might be a bit out. I think it also comes up if you check illness, sleep deprived or drinking in the symptom section.

HTH

well done not testing, I tested before I even ov'd last month
(I thought I had ov'd, turned out I was late)

 

[gerb]

oh right, i keep waking up panicking about the time i should be testing hehhehe glad i started now hopefully ill relax about it a bit next month and will just wake up normally!! ty xx

 

[welshpolly]

You're a star choklatemunky

I hope we get some more BFPs before the month is over! xxx

 

[Loola]

Afternoon ladies Hope all is well.

I have now started the 2WW ovulated later than usual and my chart looks a bit mental but my temp rose alot this morning, so Im pretty sure I have. Also I did an OPK yesterday with FMU and at first nothing happened, but when I looked later there was a really strong line. Ive been having abdomenal cramps on both sides, but I havent had my usual one sided sharp pain. For some reason I think my egg has been released from the left hand side rather than the usual right hand side. I have no real reason to think that, I just do!
Hopefully my temps will stay high for the next few days so ovulation will show on my chart. This should all mean testing on March 2nd - Mothers Day!

 

[choklatemunky]

Blimey loola that was a bit of a temp hike today wasnt it.
FX it keeps going up!
