chart stalkers

[Trudyscrumptious76]

Hi girls. I'm still lurking in the background trying to keep up with all these charts it's nice there are so many but boy it takes some keeping up with!!!! As this is officially a month off for me I haven't been as vigilant as I should be. Sorry! I do still care about you all. Lets hope last months bumper crop of BFPs continues for you all this month!!! Just not too many as I'll need one or 2 stalkers around in Jan.

Welcome back Michelle.

Sorry your IVF treatment didn't work.

I hate the early part of the cycle, it seems to drag doesn't it. Good luck for this month!

Hi Trudyscrumptious, we are a big group again now. Nice to see your quietly keeping an eye on things.

Hello Michelle - I know you have probably heard this a million times and I apologise if it is not helpful but my sister-in-laws dad and new wife had IVF and got pregnant after they stopped. So everything crossed for you.

Hello to everyone else hope your plumber has been Kitty.

 

[shellbham]

Thanks everyone for the welcome!

CB23 - Dont worry....i love hearing things like that! It gives me hope that it can happen. I definately going to have a good try anyway!!

Hope to speak to you all soon. You all seem to know each other quite well so i hope i manage to keep up!

Michelle x

Looks like I might be joining Kitty with a short cycle this month. I've had some spotting, pinky/brown discharge. I'm only 9 days dpo

I've written this month off anyway what with the UTI and all so I suppose it's a good thing if AF comes early, means I can crack on with working on a September baby

If it turns into AF, I will have gone from a 42 day cycle last month to an average lengthed cycle of 28 days (bleed doesn't normally start till day after spotting).

Bagpuss short cycles are the name of the game this month - mine was 11 days!! I'm hoping all our bodies are getting ready for the text book cycle next one with the BFP at the end of it!!

 

[CB23]

oh bugger ROM I hope it isn't her

well I feel like crap the cold is really getting to me today after I felt it was getting better so I'm gonna head home to bed soon. Can hardly stay awake.

ETA - I meant Bagpuss not ROM - I blame the cold for making me woozy

 

[reallyoldmum]

Claire you're not spotting are you? its more likely to be implantation bleeding with you after that rise - think I've got that cold going on now - I've got a really bad headache and feel all cold

 

[Chrissy1]

Sorry girls...... looks like I've given you all my cold

I didn't mean it.....honest

 

[CB23]

No, no spotting here, just the cold. What about you ROM? Colds are a bugger when you're trying to get ready for Christmas. really puts you out of the mood for cheer.

Chrissy we forgive you

 

[reallyoldmum]

No I have no spotting but then I am either only cd 9 or 19 depending on whether the last bleed I had at CD10 was a true AF????? Got an absoulte stinker of a headache though and all my family have had this cold over the past couple of weeks so I suspect I am coming down with it now.....

Grrrrrr I hate this part of ttc - not sure what is going on with my body - opk's are very nearly + but temps are still up!! got loads of creamy cm too which I normally only get after ovulation....... We will carry on bedding and just see what happens......

 

[CB23]

How many nearly +ve OPKs have you had then? Have you asked FF about that? It's just crap when things aren't right

 

[reallyoldmum]

I only got my new supply yesterday but before my bleed at 11 days they were very close to being + then I ran out of them so ordered some more and as I say they show a nice strong line at 11.00 am and 3.00 pm but it is not quite there........ Beginning to think I need to put this cycle down to an absolute writeoff - remerged my cycles on FF as I was comfortable to have an 11 day cycle...... It just doesnt make sense.....

 

[Bagpuss17]

ROM - do you normally get strong lines for several days?

It's really bizarre.

We're not having much luck are we this month?

 

[reallyoldmum]

No Bagpuss I usually fade in and out - so I would usually see a clear progression and then it fades away over a couple of days..... I feel as if my body is tittering on the brink of ovulating but everything isnt coming together somehow!!

 

[scones]

Hi girls, thanks for your earlier replies to my query. However I just had some browny red stuff (sorry if tmi), so it seems tomorrow will be the start of af.

How do I adjust FF? Also it says my free trial is going to expire soon, do I have to pay to join it after that?

 

[scones]

She got me this morning, with a vengeance

Oh well there goes another cycle, Im glad I didnt test now!

Come on, lets have some bfps from you lot!!!!

 

[Chill]

Ach sorry to hear that scones.

Feel pretty sure AF on way too, but I'm currently at the "alien with psychiatric issues" stage (CB23 ). And that's even before I start speaking to hubby about it.

Right I'm going to go and pipe down and keep really busy and not even think about it for a few days.

Luck to everyone, looking out for the BFPs!!

Chill

 

[Chrissy1]

Morning ladies

Scones - Sorry to hear AF got you With a bit a luck we'll start seeing a few BFP's to cheer you up

ROM - Aren't those nearly + opk's just sooooo annnoying. They make me want to throw the damn things down the loo!

CB23 - Hope you're feeling a little better today and the cold isn't getting to you too much


As for me..... can't believe I'm only 5 dpo and I'm already symptom spotting.... Why do I do it to myself??
I was lying on my bak in bed last night and I had some very bizarre pains in my lower tummy. They are nothing like AF pains and nothing at all like a bad tummy. I've never felt anying like it before. They seem to be slightly more on my right hand side where I sometimes get OV pains. On top of that I'm in a foul mood this morning, I've already had a a go at DH, I've thrown the cat's scratch post accross the room and I've shouted at the dog ! I know it's much to early for symptoms but I can't help wishing.....

to everyone else, hope you're all well

 

[reallyoldmum]

Gosh ladies its quiet on here today - I suspect you are all being really good and working hard

My temp dropped again this morning and another very close to + opk at 10.00 am - will do another one in a while and see if it has become +. Dave is loving it!! The first words out of his mouth this morning when he woke up were "has your temp gone down?" bugger has realised that if I feel that there maybe a chance of OV'ing he gets his wicked way!!! One of those TMI questions coming up - if you have bedded how can you tell what your CM is? I checked mine before we did this morning and it was sort of slimy creamy (not quite ewcm) but not really thick creamy sort of a mix - no obviously I cant check
