Chart Stalkers March 2008
- Thread starter Kittykins
- Start date
Flossy a few people have said that their CM gets creamy when they are pregnant, however, I have creamy CM before AF arrives so I dont think it is a sign of anything really. Hope your temps dont drop too much. Remember they have to be below the coverline for pregnancy to be unlikely, so dont give up hope yet. 
Hi all, sorry I've not been on for a couple of days - very busy here. I'm in the middle of cooking dinner too so this will be another quick one 
ROM - your chart is baffling. It does look like you've ov'ed. However, you have no pre-ectopic charts to compare it with. Also, why were the high temps before the ov date discarded? Even if they weren't discarded, though, the temps for the past eighteen days have consistently been well above the coverline, with just two exceptions. I wouldn't give up hope entirely just yet - though I'd stay away from the HPTs for a few days and try to get on with life! Fingers crossed for you. The CB tests are much more reliable than internet cheapies. The only thing is that you often test with HCG of around 3-7, so it's possible that for some reason that's what you have in your bloodstream normally, and that you will always get a faint positive with an HPT. What we really need is HPTs that count HCG... Maybe you need to use digital HPTs - then you either have a + or a -, no in between area...
Sookie - well, this month's chart is the best yet... you don't normally make it to 12dpo! I often get lines on the internet cheapies - to prove the point, I POAS'ed on CD7 this cycle, and it still came up with a faint line. However, for other people those faint lines do get darker, and 12dpo is still early. Soooooooo... I think it's looking really good for you
but I'd use a more reliable test if I could!
Babydust Do you get any pathology results, or not? I wouldn't worry too much about being pg - I'm sure your sister would be very happy for you. If you're getting a dress made up, maybe you could buy extra material, and make sure the dress is designed so that you could just sew in extra panels if necessary? An empire line dress would cover a multitude of sins... and a baby belly! Also, it's the easiest to sew in side panels. If you didn't need the extra material for the dress, you could sew ribbon/decorative trim onto the edges of a rectangular piece of it, and you'd have a matching stole - or you could turn it into little bags or skirts for your daughters. As long as you buy the fabric from the same batch now, you'll be absolutely fine - and it would reassure your sister that it's not going to be a nightmare finding another dress should you get pg!
Bugger, the food's ready and I need to go
We're having roast duck with a prune and wine sauce, roast potatoes and veg and I really hope it's as good as I think it should be. I don't have a recipe - I saw the duck fillets on special offer and then had to raid the cupboards to work out how to cook them and what with! 
DH has already drunk most of the leftover wine so at least he'll think it tastes nice, whatever the actuality 
Hope all well - will try to stalk everyone else tomorrow evening.

Its because I have overide my chart as FF didn't pick up my ov date or what I thought to be ov date.
Yes it only lasted about 30 mins, maybe not even that long, I keep burping alot ( piggy
) and having mild af aching but thats it, oh and EWCM 
Weird
I just wanted to say,I didnt see what you put earlier ROM and I am so sorry you must be going through such a mind F*k right now
Babydust please dont worry, I am sure your sis will be understanding you cant put your life on hold for others.
thanks kitty but we have the dress already its under my bed, and its a corset style 
i suppose we could just not pull the corset
no i didnt get the pathology results yet i thought i would have got them last week when i was told they would look the results out for me when i went to get my bloods done, but she handed me the histology results which only confirmed products of conception well i bloody knew that there would be products of conception(i really hate they words but thats what they use) and she didnt have my notes to confirm if anything was sent to pathology even though i asked about 3 different people to sent it, i even asked the surgeon before i was put under, she said if it was sent it could take up to 6 weeks for anything to come back.
but the consultant appointment in march will be the first time my history has been looked at, apparently the consultant i am seeing specialises in recurrent loss so i am hoping for some answers.
loola thats terrible what your friend did

babydust i know how you feel sometimes the terms they use are horrible 
we had a stillborn baby at 34 weeks and when i had to register the death i was asked "at what week gestation was the pregnancy deemed unsuccessful" grrrrrrrrrrach said:
That is disgusting! i cant believe they said thatHow awful for you
Hiya all Havent been in much cos Im trying to put this ttc lark to the back of my mind iykwim, we are still bd'ing when we 'should be' but i have stopped doing opk's and im not temping so i guess i shouldnt really be in chart stalkers/ Well my body signs are quite obvious with the 'drive' and ewcm being at the same time.
Af is due tomorrow, havent had any signs of pg or otherwise, im assuming im not cos when the witch comes i wont feel so peed off then.
Had a bit of creamy cm earlier but like someone said already, that can happen if u are pg or just before af, I'll keep you posted and in the meantime sending you all tons of babydust, sounds like everyone needs a boost by hearing about some more bfp's eh
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi everyone!
I've read back 5 pages and so much has been going on!
You are all in my thoughts and prayers - I am so sorry ROM
I also use the word cwtch!
I hope there are some BFPs for us this month!
My sleep pattern is completely all over the place so temping is nigh on impossible!!! AF is really odd as well - It has started 3 times after BDing but then clears up again! When I had my hysteroscopy, biopsy etc before Christmas they didn't see anything untoward but I have an appointment in April so hope I can ask him a few things then and also DH has had a word with his boss! It is handy having a doc as a hubby

Morning everyone
My alarm goes off at 5:30 for me to do my temp and then the plan is to go back to sleep. However this morning I couldnt sleep for wondering where Ov has got to On CD 24 today and I have a'red light' now
Lots of us all seem pretty low on here at the mo so I am praying for BFPs for all of us v soon.
Rach...I was really sorry to read your post, people can be so insensitive it really makes me cross!
ROM, i know you are not 'checking in' over the weekend but just thought id say that I am thinking of you! Sending one of these your way...
Sookie and ROM - your charts still look good to me (not that i know much!!!)
Kitty - how are you feeling? Any signs?
Im off to the National Wedding Show at the NEC today with my SIL (to be) which should be a good distraction (I mean day out!) I am wondering if there is any way that I can still do my 12
0 POAS though!
If anyone has a min to look at my chart that would be great as I am not sure what is going on...could FF just not have picked up Ov? This would be my longest cycle yet
Have a good day everyone, will be back on here tonight after I have hunted down all the chocolate fountains I can find

scones good luck hun FX xxx
flossy hun your chart is looking great youve bd at the right times and plenty of it the only thing i would suggest if you dont get your bfp this month is being much more accurate with your temping you have a lot of open circles on your chart and that can make things difficult
i have an 11 month old baby and i know it can sometimes be difficult to do your temps at certain times because of baby waking early or night waking but i know he doesnt wake up usually before 7 so i set my alarm for 7 take my temp and go back to sleep if your having same problem maybe see what the earliest children get up is and set your alarm for before then so that you are nearly always taking it at same time and of course make sure you take it after at least 4 hours solid sleep and dont move before taking it the only thing i move is my arm to reach for the thermometer xxxxxx

xxxxxxHey rach thanks hun Normaly ive been taking it between 6.30/7.30 not far after half 6 though as the lo's are awake around 6 but im still asleep and only hear them when they are running around. Im usualy in ed for about 12.30 so would it be too early to take it around 5.30 or there after? I know they arent awake just then! And ice been good when i have done just reaching onto the side to get it and not moving about
