Kyra - To be honest I don't know if my doctor will say I have to wait but I don't want to ask her because it means another frustrating 6 weeks of not doing anything if she says no (LOL - I could go against her advice of course but I confess to being a little afraid of her, she's tiny but tough!)
I have just been reading a few things on the net about temping for ovulation as i have never done it before and wasnt too sure what to be looking for. It says that when not fertile temp stays about the same, pre-fertile phase (generally around 12 - 24 hrs before ovulation) it drops about 0.2 - 0.4, and while the egg is being released or just after it rises again by about 0.2 -0.4.
Does this sound right, i have no idea and want to be able to use temping to know when i am???
The last 2 days my temp has been 36.2 & 36.1 and this mornings temp was down to 35.8 so im hoping that means im in the pre-fertile phase and my eggie will be released tonight or tomorow and we have plenty of time to BD, being the weekend and all :lol:
elise -=- I have no idea but GUD LUCK anyway! Lets see a BFP from u this month :pray:
Thanks kyra, yeah im keeping everything crossed that its our month, think i need a bit of a pick me up and that would be just it. Good luck with your sticky little bundle. When do you get in to docs for blood tests and all? Make sure you keep us posted on your journey :)
Sammy- I know what you mean about not wanting to wait. My OB told us to wait after my first m/c, and I was so terrified that I would have a second m/c if I didn't listen to her. Then seven months later, I finally conceived again and ended up losing my baby anyway!! I keep wondering if I wouldn't have waited, maybe I would have conceived a healthy bub straight away. After losing my second angel, a different OB said there is no reason to wait. I hate that doctors can't seem to make up their minds about the whole thing. After a chemical pregnancy though, I really don't think there is any medical reason not to try again right away if you want to.
Kyra- Still so happy you got your BFP! I love seeing that in your signature. :pray: for your little one!
Elise- Now I remember why I stopped temping! It was all too confusing for me, but I really hope you get the hang of it and it works out for you!
Zstar- I saw a woman the other day who was at least 8 months along and smoking. It made me SO MAD! Mad at her for putting her baby in danger, but also just made in general that SHE can sustain a pregnancy and I can't when I follow every single little rule! It is just so frustrating. And seeing parents yelling at their kids, or often not even paying attention to them at all! I just saw someone pushing her baby in the stroller while her 2 year old son was following about 20 feet behind her through a PARKING LOT and she wasn't even watching him! :wall: Sorry for the rant. I am just very glad that you are still doing okay and the spotting has pretty much stopped. Keep taking it one day at a time!
Well, in six days, my hcg went from 24 to 10. :wall: It seems to be taking forever!!!! Going back again next week to see if it's finally back to normal by then. It's been almost two months since baby Ryan went to heaven, but those hormones just don't want to go away! Hopefully it will be normal soon and I will ovulate shortly after that.
I hope everyone is doing well today!
hannah -=- wow that is a long time.. Hopefully u will be back to normal soon
Im going to the docs on monday for blood tests etc
Hi ladies,
Another newbie joining :-)
We're currently TTC following our recent loss of 'Fuzzy' in July. We lost our beloved at only 4 weeks 4 days...
We were told by the GP that since it was so early we should have no problems with starting againstraight away so that is what we've chosen to do. Fuzzy will forever be in our thoughts,hearts, mind & spirit, but having been TTC for close to 2 years, we're eager for our own little bundle of joy & have decided to try again this month.
I have just O'd,and we've been BD'ing every day accordingly, so we are dearly praying this month will be OUR month, alongside all of you lovelies as well :pray:
Does anyone keep an online Blog of their journey? Mine is at Our Journey To 'Sticky Bun' , and I plan to start to record Vlogs (my Channel is YouTube - LladyR's Channel) very soon as well so be sure to subscribe, and follow my journey. :D
We live on the Sunshine Coast, and are being married in just 28 short days in beautiful Noosa :wub:
We also have a 7yr old as well, who is my fiancee`'s from a previous relationship whom lives with us full time.
This is TTC#2.
Looking forward to sharing.

Sorry to winge all about me.
wow.. self centered sister much!
how the **** is being around pregnant women going to make u feel better?
so that just happened when u saw her just now??
Hi everyone,
Not much to report with me...still waiting...think I am up to 8DPO today...tested this morning, not entirely sure why as I know it is too early, kind of did it still half asleep! Anyhow...surprise, surprise :bfn: Last time I did a test at 11DPO and it was sooo faint so I think it really is too early to show - thats what I am hoping anyway! Got rid of my urge to POAS but wasted one of my FR should have used a internet cheapie cos it was never going to show anything. With your pregnancies how soon did you get a positive test?
eliselouise85 - there is no real way of knowing if you are ovulating yet...it takes a couple of cycles to recognise your bodies individual chart. Somepeople have a clear temp drop on the day before or of ovulation, some dont have a drop but they have a surge in temp on o day. So I dont know if I can really help. Temping really doesnt tell you when you will but when you have. So do the BD as much as possible until you see an increase in your temp for 3 days ( I have been tricked before with having a rise and then my temp has fallen again). Usually by the time of the drop you have o or are about to in the next day or so. Thats how I understand it anyhow. I have been charting for 6 months and I can basically tell what is going on now.
Just an afterthought CONGRATULATIONS KYRAWOLFE! Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy! x
Kyra-Yeh this arvo b4 i got kid's from school
Oh My Goodness Ferrals - how inconsiderate of your SIL ! That is so rude...
She needs to grow a brain.....
Big :hug: for you !
xoxoxo
I havent read everyones posts I hope everyone is doing well as can be..
sorry, but have to ask a question...
What do you think I should expect on a FR at 10dpo? I am wondering whether to use it tomorrow or not..I had a bfn on the pregnow 10mlu tests today so feeling no love :(
Coco - do you think you would be able to hold out till 12 dpo ?
I know its flippin hard - but at least you would be alot more likely to get a second line then. Just a thought....
:hug:
xoxoxox
Hope you are all well Ladies !
I am trying to stay sane till Monday when i have my next lot of bloods done....
Havent had any bizarre things happen today :crossfingers: it stays this way. Even had some normal mucous....sorry TMI. Not getting my hopes up yet though.
DH said "it must be a girl - causing dramas already" and i said "gee i hope so".
Take care and i will keep you posted !
:stickyvibesgirl: for me and heaps of :bluedust: for you all
xoxo
I'm out. I hope you all get the stickiest BFP's soon!!
xx
Hi all,
Sounds like a few people are around tseting time....good luck to all.
Superstar- I got my faint BFP on an ebay cheapie at 8DPO in the late afternoon and a definte on FR on 9DPO, no doubt it would have been good on the FR at 8DPO if i had one. I know those days are spot on too, from OPK, temp rise and the fact i feel myself ovulating (which i hope hasn't changed!!).
AFM - CD16, no sign of a positive OPK and temp still down, so my excitement of the D7C making my cycle noraml was a bit premature. Looks like i will probably O as normal on about CD20 and have my silly (but usual) 11 day luteal phase. Silly cycle...anyone here taken B6 to help lengthen LP, i know 11 dyas isn't mega mega short but wondering if it doesn't help??Also i would like to note and back up Snugglybean, i hate using condoms, i feel like a teenager!! I definately think if this cycle is longer than 28 days we will try next cycle as if we were lucky enough to conceive it would nearly be 3 months anyway. I mean i was already on normal folate and now on mega 5mg doses since D&C day and still normal preg. vitamins, i mean i think my body is flooded in the stuff!!
Snuggly - Thanks for thinking of me, i had a massive cry last night, it started over the fact i was trying to finish our wedding photo album and i have lost our vows, i had a copy of both mine and dh's original handwritten vows i wanted to put in the album and i can't find them.....sucks, i have no idea where they could be. And then i couldn't stop bawling, and told him it wasn't just about the vows...blah, blah, blah, he's the best DH and just comforted and cuddled me!!I was a mess!! Feel alot better today after the cry though!! Hope you are doing ok and those levels are dropping nice and fast!!
Wow, i am becoming a pro at rambling on...
Everyone have a great weekend :)
Hi all,

:hello: to everyone I have missed!

DH and I are now in Brisbane. The christening for our god daughter went without a hitch and the only thing was, while I was holding her she was farting the whole time:rofl: so I had to do my best not to make a face hahaha!
While I was there the friends who we're visiting in brisbane called, they lost their baby, they were almost ready to make the "announcement" only to be informed the baby had stopped growing at 8w2d. I cried for her, It bought back alot of emotions. It felt very different to reading about it on here for women I dont know as opposed to a friend who I see in thr flesh if that makes sense?
I am about 10dpo today, I have a gut feeling its a bfn this month..well the FR test I did this morning said that...even though in the light or side on I could see a light line..but i think and Im pretty sure its the "indent" thing..IYKWIM?? and everyone telling me after the operation you'll fall straight away, its the best time blah blah blah..*sigh* i am getting a couple of pimples and that happened last month and before I had endo so it isnt a good sign for me...BB have been very sensitive to touch which is no sign either way and I have been tired but its probably more to do with not being able to sleep in of a morning while not at home :doh:
Last time I was pg I got a line at 13dpo in the pm but I know that by tomorrow or the next day if Im feeling hungry like "right now!" and thirsty etc and whatever other feelings I had, then maybe im in with a chance.
DH and I went to the casino last night and I won on blackjack which has bought us another night in the oaks casino towers hotel. They're gorgeous apartments!! We got one for $114 for a friday night and they have matched the price for us for sunday night plus they're giving us an upgrade!!!! WOO!!!!
Anyway, enough from me! Hope you all have a lovely weekend!! :grouphug:
Coco
