Oh Claire I'm sorry, it hurts like hell when this happens doesnt it. Be kind to yourself and have a treat or two (a glass of wine usually works for me!!).
Gosh Santa's going to be so busy sorting out all these BFP's!!!!

Hey all, I'm back - did you miss me?! 
Claire30 - sorry it didn't happen for you this time
Scones/Sookie - re the EWCM question, that's exactly the dilemma I had a week or so ago, and asked the FF guides about. Their response was that if it stretches an inch, no matter what the colour, it should be classified as EWCM - but you should note the details (nice!) in the notes section on your chart, so for future ref, you'll know when it goes from 1" to 3" or white to clear, or whatever. Thanks to the 1" rule, I've now had over a week of EWCM and still not ov'd! But in that time it's definitely changed colour and stretch.
ROM - sorry to see AF got you too... what's happening with the fertility clinic now?
Everyone else - hope all's ok and
for lots of BFPs!

Kitty - I'm pretty sure that you were missed Hope that you had nice time doing whatever you were doing
Well, that's good to know about the EWCM. Will be handy to have all this knowledge for next month.
OK - December is our month for BFPs. Santa is definitely gonna come through for us. I met him when I went to Finland, and believe me, he was a really nice guy.

Thanks Sookie!
Is there anyone left in the running for a November BFP? I thought someone had just ov'd but I can't remember who? (and I'm not going back through the charts!) Still got nine days left this month (thank goodness, as I haven't started Xmas shopping yet!) - we must be able to squeeze another BFP out, surely?!
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
If I did get a BFP this cycle, that means I'm 2 weeks pregnant today - even though I haven't yet ov'd. It's like some kind of Back to the Future time warp. I might or I might not be but I'll find out in 3 or 4 weeks if I was now.

There must be one more for this month surely.....
Hopefully we'll all be getting nice xmas BFP's next month.
If I get mine it would be a joint birthday pressie too because my next AF is due on my birthday!!!
We are going away for the weekend too so it's either going to be best birthday present in the world or the most depressing birthday ever!!!

Kitty welcome back
well af has gone totally 
my body has been so mixed up since my loss in august i think i might look into something to get me back to normal. i was always regular before and had a proper period with a proper start and finish which lasted about 4 -5 days now its all over the place
can anyone think of anything i could take?Hi all
Welcome back Kitty I wondered where you'd gone
Claire, I can't remember whether you've tried/are trying agnus castus at the moment. It has definitely changed my cycle, I'm hoping for a really short one this time. I'm starting to feel vague AF types pains so I don't think it'll be long!
FF has advised that I test on the 4th December if AF hasn't arrived - that seems so far away! I'm sure there was someone else who Ov'd around the same time as me too. The name escapes me for the moment though

Mildly is this your first month charting? They always set the test date way in advance until they can judge how long your average LP lasts - then the test date is when you are 1 day late.
Although December seems a long way away its not!!
Claire I took Agnus Cactus when I had my coil removed - it sorted my cycle out after a couple of months - I am taking it again now to see if it helps my uterus lining but I am going to stop as soon as I ovulate as it says not to take when pregnant on mine. Might be worth you trying it - you can get it off ebay.

Claire, if your period lasted only 1 day, I'd wait a bit before trying anything. If it doesn't come back, do another HPT in a couple of days and/or see the GP. There are women who have had what appears to be AF even whilst pregnant - you really don't want to start taking anything if there's still a chance.
I was visiting my parents over the weekend, then stayed an extra night. We'd moved the visit from this coming weekend when we realised the likely ov dates - then I started panicking that I was going to ov really early, when I had EWCM from CD9! Absolutely no chance of BDing there - paper-thin walls and I'd have to walk past my parents' door to get to the bathroom afterwards
And we all know what the 'walk of shame' is like, clutching a handful of tissues and hoping you make the loo on time! 
My father spotted my CBEFM sticking out my washbag and asked what it was. What would you have said? I muttered 'women's stuff' and DH said 'I think it's some kind of hair removal gadget'! I'm not sure that was any better than the truth, actually, but I was impressed by his quick thinking!

As per my thread here: http://www.pregnancyforum.co.uk/forum/v ... hp?t=54877
I can't figure out if I ovulated or not, FF thinks later, but as I explained the house was blimmin' cold for a week or so around the time. I had a day or two of EWCM, but not much around day 20, when I normally ovulate.
I did this quickly, 'cause I chart on paper! The red line is when it was super cold in the bedroom, so I reckon that's why the temps are out.
I think I desperately want AF be late and not having missed ovulation, might even test tomorrow morning to put my mind at rest. I can't get it out of my head!
Sorry!

Evening all,
Welcome back Kitty.
So sorry Claire30 for all the turmoil you're going through with your AF at the mo. Hope it all settles down for you soon.
Welcome NickyB, from looking at your chart it does look as though you have ovulated because there is a shift in your temp on day 30 and they've stayed elevated. Looks like you ovulated late this month.

ROM, yes this is my first month charting. FF says it recommends leaving it a long while before testing if you don't have any previous data/cycles to compare against. I think I will be 19 DPO on the 4th December. I'm sure it will come around soon enough. I really need to get started on my internet Christmas present buying so I can avoid venturing into the mad Christmas shopping rush in town - hopefully that will pass the time
Kitty, I'm impressed with your OH's quick thinking
NickyB it does look as though day 30 was Ov day, did you manage to get in much BDing around that time (not sure if you recorded all of your BDing on the chart)? It might be worth getting some OPKs for future use, in case this month isn't your month

Morning ladies.....
I know some of you are charting experts so I was wondering if you could give me a bit of advice.
I'ts my first full month charting this month and I've had a sore throat for the past couple of days. I've woke up this morning with a bad cold and I am feeling like rubbish to be honest.
I was wondering if any of you knew what effect a having a cold will have on my chart?? I thought that my temp would go up but I've had quite a big drop today instead so I'm well confused??
