I would like to express my severe disappointment with AF this month for putting so many of us back in the first 2 weeks of our cycles!
Good luck to everyone on the testing road, and happy egg catching to those about to ovulate!
Jen - Don't worry honey, I saw that you had "I'm first" post :)
I think you definitely ovulated on CD14. I'm waaaayyyyy smarter than FF so you should definitely trust me more! :D
Joey - I'm so proud of how well you are coping at the moment. I'm terribly sorry that AF came of course, but I'm always happy to have you "chasing me". I'll do my very best to make sure we both run to the correct finish line this cycle! :hug:
Angel - You must be exhausted after such a tough day at work! :ROFL: Man I wish that I could BB at work, hehe.
Toccara - Good luck in your studies! I'm guessing the "Dean's List" is like getting "Honours" here...?
Mollycat - Better alert the hospitals and birth centers now that they are going to have to put on extra staff in April!!!
Van - You chart has me a little confused. I think that it's mainly guessing when you ovulated based on when you got the positive OPK's. It's not able to trust your temps because the are open circles (did you mark those days as sleep deprived or something?). I've put you on the cycle list as 6DPO, but I can change it to 3DPO if you prefer. OOooooh, that makes it hard to decide when to start testing doesn't it?!
Tina - I can't wait to hear your BT results! I wish you could get them the second after you get the blood taken. Maybe you should hang around in the office and bug them until they run your blood test first! Next time I'm pregnant I think I'll offer to run the test myself. I've used the path machines before and I'm sure I can work out how to run the hcg test :ROFL:
Easha - I'm so glad that AF still hasn't arrived! And your temp was still nice and high this morning too.
Jenushka - What a good little bubba growing at just the right speed to stick with it's dates. It must have been amazing to hear the little heart beating away :)
AFM: Well, I had my sooky day yesterday when I should have been 20weeks pregnant, and I feel a bit better for it today. I think I needed to let the sadness in for a day so that I could move past that "milestone". Thank you all for your messages of support and the wonderful cyber hugs. Even though I wasn't posting, I was still reading your messages and I had you all in my thoughts :hug:
Well i wont be able to have our midnight chat tonight... contrary to popular opinion... I do actually work at work :p and am a tad tired after Jen keeping me up all night.
Im certainly convinced that bubs is on her way..... what an emotional wreck I have been today... cranky one minute then sad the next told DH off then hugged him.... ohhh i ve been emotionally off the planet... mind you, flicking back and forth onto BB was good because I would be really grumpy and then read something... then laugh and keep going... so thank you for everyones smart ar$e comments today, they kept me sane. I have been such a PMS case.. . and AF wouldnt be due for at least 5 more days.... normally if I do have a PMS month I get half as bad the evening before....Ohhh well I suppose we will just wait and see.... DH is convinced this is the month as well... he says he can feel it..... one thing he will feel if it is... is 9 months of me yelling then hugging :lol:
Are you still blaming me, Angel, for being up so late??? :lol: I'm reading posts and catching up on all the news, so I'm here in case anyone else is...How about you, tutmae, are you still up?
Joey: HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLIN!!!! I'm sorry af reared her head (the cow she is) but I'm so happy you are feeling somewhat positive! Go us and our April bubbas!!
Jenushka: YAY!! Congrats on the fabulous scan, hon!!
Jen: *hello*.... hehe.... YAY us and our new discovery!!
AFM: Was at work all day today and am tired!! Had a wierd feeling in my belly last night about half way between my belly button and my hips. Kinda a pulling and tugging then a bloating feeling. Think I may have o'd yesterday as I had a huge temp jump today. But we only dtd the morning before, so I hope I haven't missed the boat. Would any of you be able to have a look and let me know what you think?
*hello* tutmae! :lol: I knew your temp was going to start going up when I looked at your chart yesterday--remember I said you should get higher temps for the next 3 days! Damn, I'm good! :lol: j/k Based on just the one temp and your weird feelings in your belly, you're probably right, and O'ed on Wed. Which would mean you :bd: twicebefore O--great chances!! I bet FF will give you a high conception chance once you get your coverline!! :woot:
Still awake... and yes I m blaming you... goodness I have to blame someone... what.. you think I m going to take the blame myself....well that would be no fun would it :p
Ohhhh the tummy twinges.... FULL ON
Angel--:hooray: for tummy twinges!! :woot: Ok, lay all the blame on me--I can take it!
Ahhhh I know you can..... and yes the twinges.... holly dooly.... constant.. then nothing... then constant again..... I m pretty certain.
I cant tell you what it all means from a temping point of view... cause I dont temp....:doh:
I m pretty sure I m right... the odd :pray: would nt hurt
ohhhh I just got the *hello*... ohhh tad slow tonight....LOL
Angel--*evil* See, and you're blaming me when it's really pg'cy insomnia you should be blaming!!!
Hey tutmae, I was thinking last night that I told you yesterday about overlaying your chart with mine...you could also go to the chart gallery, and overlay your chart with over 200 others!! And you can pinpoint O day, or beginning of cycle, however you want to do it.
Jen: YAY! Ok, I really hope I o'd yesterday then I always thought you had to dtd on the day of o to have any chance of conception, but 2 days before is ok? Sa-weet!
Angel: tummy twinges? YAY!!!! So exciting!!
tutmae--As long as you :bd: any time during your fertile time--which usually lasts 4-5 days--you've got a great chance! You also still have 24 hours that you're fertile after O, so go grab DH and get busy, girl!!
joey--You're handling this like a champ, hon...you're amazingly strong, I hope you realize that! If you ever feel like not being strong, remember that we won't tell you "not to worry", because you can't be strong all the time!! :hug: So April it is!! It will be for me, too! But no skiing for you in Aug, because you'll be UTD by then!
Our :bd: competition seems to have gone flat... no BD for over a week! But DF has been home sick for 3 days, and he doesn't take being sick well, so no BD'ing has been ok with me! It's not like it would matter right now anyways! (yikes, that sounded rough) I think for this current cycle we should all have a BD-off--anyone up for a challenge???? Hope you enjoy your Birthday dinners!!
mollycat--Still waiting on that cleaning fairy! Maybe she was too pooped out after cleaning your house! :p
Van--Yes, FF is definitely confused this month! At least you used opk's, can't remember without clicking back where those +opk's came in relation to your temps--and I don't want to lose my post! Looks like we're both in limbo for now! You could be like me and have more than 1 chart to go by--I like my other one better than FF this month!
tina--Thanks, hon...I'm trying not to worry about those stupid red lines! Still trying.... :lol: Good luck with your BT's today!!! Will we really have to wait ALL weekend to get the results??? I'm feeling very impatient! I'm :pray: for some nice, high, numbers!
Easha--:hooray: that AF is still MIA!!! Looking forward to seeing another high temp! 1 more sleep till you POAS!!! Looks like no skiing for you in Aug. either!!
jenushka--Congrats on your great OB appt!!! :hooray: for heartbeats and foot waves!! I'm so happy for you that you've passed a milestone! Wishing you continued good luck and lots of :bellyrubs:
Morning gurlies!
No headache today thank goodness!
Tocarra...maybe we'll be PG buddies I see you are on CD7 I am CD8...my cycle averages 26 days how about yours?
Easha...blowing :pink-babydust::bluedust:all over you!
joey...:happybirthday: Was it the 16th or is it today? NOOOOOOO AF was/is banned! I will have to say you are dealing with it wonderfully...on a positive note we can be April baby partners!
jen...umm...if you ain't first you're last :lol: Sorry I couldn't resist.
Van...wow still on the poo smell quest? LOL
Krystie...I too have been deeply disappointed with our lack of :bfp:...July has proven to be a sucky month for conception...last half is left who will redeem the month and begin a new craze?
AFM...guess what this week...weekend is? DVD!!! We've been practicing for the weekend...;) I wonder if I am using up all the swimmers prior to O day...I sure hope not we rather enjoy :bd: so we tend do do it OFTEN!!! Hmm...
:ttc:
okkkk serious TMI warning......
Does CM increase with a BFP
Jenushka...CONGRATS on a great scan!!!
Angel Babies...I am soooooo :pray: for you a :bfp:
jen when he's sick you gotta go rodeo style...;) Trust me Lee gets no breaks and I accept no excuses :lol:
:pink-babydust::bluedust:
:stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy:
Angel Babies...according to lots of things I've read yes it does increase and I think it becomes a creamy consistancy...
Part 2--
Krystie--:hooray: You're back! The thread just seems far too quiet without you! I'm glad you took the time to take a sooky day, sometimes we need that to feel better! :hug: And you're MUCH smarter than FF, so I'm sure you're right about me O'ing on CD14!! How's your eye feeling lately after that bird attack? That reminded me of that old Hitch**** movie, The Birds--have you seen that one? Creepy...
AFM...Had an interesting occurrence when trying to temp today...DS slept on a cot next to my bed last night, so as I was reaching over him this am to grab my thermometer, it fell in between the cot and the dresser! So I was trying to reach it without waking DF and DS--no such luck! I was feeling pretty stressed out by this time! So I had to get up and grab my regular thermometer from the front bathroom. By the time I took my temp it was 98.2, which is a slight drop from yesterday, so I figure it's gotta be pretty close to accurate! What a dramatic experience! Then I ended up waking DF up, and he gets all huffy and puffy....then he comes out to tell me that he's tired of getting woken up at 5:30 every morning! Duh, it's usually 6:00! :rofl: I guess I'm supposed to lay in bed awake for an hour and a 1/2 until it's time for him to wake up??? Yeah, right, good luck with that one! It's not like I was huffing and puffing all through the night while he's been keeping me awake while he's been sick! And that could affect my temp, so I should be huffing louder than him!!! :lol:
Angel--I always have lots of CM when pg!!
Angel: I've heard the same thing! YAY!
Good morning smilanatu! Glad to hear your headache is gone! No rodeo for me...too much work! :lol: Besides, for a girl, missionary is best! Ooh, another DVD weekend? :whip: Go get it girl!!
tutmae and smi, we're in the chat room if you want to come join us!
Angel: So excited!! Are you testing tomorrow? remember- always follow A's instructions!!
Everyone's deserted me now, and it's only 8:45 a.m.! What will I do while everyone is :asleep: ??? I guess I better work on cleaning my house since mollycat's cleaning fairy is MIA! I know one of you must have kidnapped her for yourself! lol... C'mon, fess up... who was it? *big sigh....* I guess I'll go clean the bathroom...that's the absolute worst!...
tutmae--I know what you're doing right now! :bd: *evil* :rofl:
bettyboop--Hope things are going well with you! Big :hug: and :bellyrubs:
WTH--:hug: Thinking of you and saying lots of :pray:
tempus--You've been MIA...how's those meds going for you? Hope you aren't having any ill side effects!
issy--Hey girl! How's the new lifestyle treating you?
Hi Acria! How's it going? You've been awfully quiet!
Ruthie--Where'd you go, girl? Any news yet? Finger and toes crossed for you!
Hi plc! :hello: Hope you're still lurking mama!
Hi's and big hugs to everyone else not mentioned! You're all always in my thoughts! I've run out of smilies, so just imagine the sparkles around this *baby dust* and *sticky vibes*!! We really need some more BFP's for July!!! tina's getting lonely!!!
Ok, that was a 5 minute distraction...*sigh*...now I'm really going to clean the bathroom...BOO!! Someone wake up and save me from my bathroom! ROFLMAO
One bathroom down.... 1/2 one to go..... no one has saved me yet! :wtf:
Wow the thread I left you girlies was closed....LOL I was lost again :doh: but found you..(again)...LMAO!!!
Darn I'm such a noob.
Update on me:
So I did some calculating and I'm 8 weeks from LMP.. I decided it was enough time to get a BFP..so I tested today instead of Monday (for those who don't know I have PCOS and on all my 3 prev pregnancies ( 2 m/c) I never showed a BFP till after the 6 weeks on all 3) and I got a BFN :(
I made an appointment with a fertility specialist and hopefully I will be able to get in on the beginning of Aug.
I'm bummed out that I feel so many things but from now on it's only PMS. I have to stuff that into my head...
so till then I'm just waiting for that docs visit. I will keep you posted on how I do.I'm just a bit bummed out and sad that I am not pregnant ; Meaning my fertility meds didn't work this month! :( For now I have to stop thinking I am pregnant.
If I take too long to write back here feel free to e-mail me.

I wish each and everyone of you Good luck , baby dust and I hope you get your
BFPS!!!

:hug: to all of you and keep me posted on em BFPS! Good luck everyone.
- Ruth:pray:ie
Well - that's much better. I don't feel neglected this morning, lots to catch up on. LOL
Jen - don't know where that cleaning fairy went - I told her to go straight to your house cause you needed her. Sorry. obviously she got lost on the way. Hey, if anyone finds her, can you send her back - My place needs another clean up.
Angel - :pray: for you. Sounds good so far.
Krystie - Everyone is allowed a "sooky day". Glad to hear you're feeling a little better. OMG look at that list, you keep an update on that so well. I think we need to move everyone from the top half to the bottom half, what do you think. And we'll put the ones in the middle down the bottom too.
Good Idea - put all the hospitals and birthing centres on alert - there's going to be an influx in April, actually around here there usually is.
quick post before I get caught by the boss
Thought it was all over early this morning. I woke at 3:30am (2nd day in a row) as I was soooo hot and needed to pee (not like me at all). I had major AF type cramps so quickly ran to the loo and checked and there was nothing.
The cramps continued for the morning and still are quite distinct now so when the alarm went off I actually said to DH it was all over but I couldn't bear to go the the loo to check. Anyway the pee got the better of me and again checked and again nothing.
Very interesting your last few posts have been about creamy CM cause I have had so much (TMI) and this is why I have been checking all the time.
Temp stayed high, although could be because I worried all night about AF
Oh well the waiting continues for me - keep throwing the baby dust
Jen - lurking as always my friend!! lmao at it being called "rodeo" - I must be a regular cowgirl!!!
Angel - I get heaps of discharge when pg and i often get it confused with thrush. Getting all that checked at the moment actually cos my thrush is not going away. So short answer is yep, get heaps of discharge on pants (panty liners a good idea - thanks for that!).
Hey everyone - think I may have gone over the TMI line with each of the bits of info above but, oh well, we're all friends! :hug:
good morning all you lovely ladies :hello:
oooh Easha: :pink-babydust::bluedust::pink-babydust::bluedust: for you!!!! all the signs are looking good to me! dont worry about your boss, please come in and keep us updated!!!
ruthie: the waiting is so so hard! im sorry you havent got the answer you are looking for yet...but its not over yet! it seems that this isnt unusual for you to be pg and get BFNs, so hape thats whats happening this time too...
well, Jen, hope your bathrooms are all clean!!!
oh, by the way, we definitely wont be waiting all weekend if i have anything to do with it! i will be getting hubby to ring the pathology people every half an hour till be get a HCG level!!!
angel: well well well, looking good for you too sweety! when will you test? we cant wait!!!
so, im heading off to have my BT soon, will BBL with the results...
have a good day everyone :)
@#&#@ @#&#@ I have just been to 5...not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 but 5 chemists to get the "first response" pg test..... none of them had it.....
now I m back at work and going to let my fingers do the walking to find one that does have them and then buy the damn shop out.
Goodness... what a waist over an hour
hey angel
not sure about brissie but here in sydney you can buy first response at any wooolworths supermarket
good luck, am dying to hear your BFP!
Thank you Jen805 and Tina!!
Ok now this is the craziest thing!! I don;t believce it!!.. Rememeebr how I tested this AM and it was BFN??.. Well for the heck of it I threw it in a drawer before the time limit and like at 6Pm (eastern time) I went to stare at it and OMG a second faint faint line????.
I was liek no...that has to be an evap... so I took another tests only that tthis time it acted awkward.... the ink depositeed on both side of the "test" line making it look white and all the sides pink???.. what theheck?
anyways it acted funky and the 1st one I took in the AM had a second line.. not sure if it was an evap as I didn't wait for the time limit I just saw that no line showed up and threw it in my drawer. !!!..crazy crazy. so I lost all my hopes this AM and now they have gone AwAAY UP!!..
Sooo..being the POAS addict that I am.. I bought like 5 FRER and a few cheapies from the "dollar tree " store and am going to POAS like a true maniac this weekend. But am using the brand ones this Monday.
If I show up something good this weekend I will sure let you know!! I'm so excited as this week is exactly 8 weeks from my LMP.. the exact week I got a BFP when I miscarried my 1st baby. (the fetus was 6 weeks) but from my LMP it was 8 weeks.
Again..baby dust donations appreciated. LOL
I will sure keep you posted. Wow all I say is this TTC with PCOS is such a roller coaster of emotions. you get down then you get hope... sucks.
Am just hoping I'm not putting myself for heartache. Funny thing my 3 yr old comes to me today pokes my belly and said "mommy a baby!!"..and I said you think?..and he said "I think so yeah".. a 3 YEAR OLD!! Does he know something I don't???.. LOL:D:pray::pray:
Oh girls I hope we all get our miracles this very cycle!!!:bluedust::pink-babydust:
ok I will sure let you know what happens. Oh I will not be home tomorrow so I will sure miss you girlies. All I can say is Good luck and I am praying for you girlies!!
♥hugs♥ :hug:
Ruthie
angel, you can buy first response form Coles Supermarkets, if you havent had any luck yet with pharmacies
Hey all!
Just a quickie from bme before I go to work. Took my temp today and put it in FF and now it says my temp is fluctuating more than it should and it may be because I'm not ovulating. Bit down. I just hope I am o-ing.
:bluedust: :pink-babydust: :stickyvibesboy: :stickyvibesgirl:
Thank You Thank You Thank You....... I even went to Bi Lo and they didnt have any so I m about to go to woolies and then coles.....
ohhh by the way... I think DH must be a tad excited.... his parents rang today and he proudly told them that we are waiting on confirmation but we think we are having a baby........ five minutes later when he picked my jaw off the floor i said to him that i wasnt going to say anything until after our FS appointment which isnt for another month...... couldnt be cranky with him though... he is convinced becasue he can "feel" it and he a tad excited........ :pray: :pray: :pray: :pray: .... throwing in a few extra prayers... the pressure is on now....LOL
Angel - I'm hoping sooooooooo hard that your instincts are right and that you are cooking a little baby! Your DH sounds so cute letting the cat out of the bag like that!
PS. I think I had creamy CM when I was pregnant too :)
Tutmae - Your temp dip today might be the pre-ovulation dip. I'd keep up the bd'ing if I were you just in case :)
Smilanatu - Bring on your DVD weekend! It still makes it sounds so relaxing doesn't it? And when friends ask you to come out with them you can tell them you are having a DVD weekend without them knowing exactly what you ARE doing hehehe.
Jen - My eye is much better. It never turned into a full-on black eye, so unfortunately I never got to be a pirate :( I guess it's ok though because I was a bit traumatised and scared of birds so I don't think I could have handled a parrot on my shoulder...
My eye only went a little bruised and dark underneath, but I could cover it up with a bit of foundation. It's healing really well and didn't get infected, yay!
Stupid thermometer jumping onto the floor. Stern words are required with that rogue thermometer!
Ruthie - I hope your 2nd faint line is a BFP! With the number of hpt's it sounds like you've got now, you'll never have to "waste" urine again! Good luck over the weekend!
Mollycat - It will be much easier to do the list when everyone is in the bottom section (which I guess will make it the top section then, lol). I wonder which one of us will ovulate first, you or me? :)
Easha - Go temps! Yours are still looking so nice and high! Hmm, and some excessive urination just to spice up your life ;)
Tina - I can't wait to hear the results of your BT! Keep ringing the pathology place. They'll have to get sick of you at some point and just run the test!
