Jen - I'm still watching your chart. Still not sure what's going on though. Hopefully your temps start to go up soon! I guess the major downfall with temping is that it only tells you you have ovulated after it's already happened. But you get used to what other signs your body gives you around the time you ovulate so you know for future reference. Hopefully you won't need "future" reference though and that this is your month!
I'm going to hold onto my form for the second BT unti the end of my next cycle so that I can have see if I get pregnant this cycle. I figure that with my AF having been so heavy this cycle I know that I'm definitely not pregnant, and this will save me from having to go to the dr to get the form next time
Oh, and the pain you described is pretty much how I would describe my ovulation pain, so fingers crossed for you!!!

bettyboop - Good luck with you apt tomorrow and I really hope you get some answers!

Tocarra - My hcg levels only got low enough for me to ovulate about 4-5 weeks after my d&c and I've heard it can take longer than that too. In fact, there's a chance my hcg level was still at 17 last friday which was 6 weeks after my d&c.
Just remember also that it is possible to fall pregnant again after a miscarriage before you even get your AF again, so if you're worried you can ask your ob or gp for two BT test a few days apart to see if your hcg level is falling or rising. I personally found it comforting just to find out what my level was so that I could estimate how long before it would drop (on average it halves every 48 hours or so). In any case, good luck

Megsmum - Tomorrow is "C day" for you! "Conception day" hehehe. I hope it all goes really well for you!

Acria - Maybe keeping things low key will help you out this month. You don't have to feel excited and pumped about ttc every month. It's not like you going to be any less excited when you find out you are pregnant. Maybe your future baby had performance anxiety

Issy - I can't wait until you are confident enough to make a ticker... Good luck!

Jodsan - Wow law! I did a Bachelor of Science and got first class honours in Biology. I really loved Uni and sometimes miss it. Well I loved the atmosphere at Uni, the social stuff and the learning, but not so much the assignments and exams lol!
And I say keep testing!! I'm sure it must be too early to be sure. Fingers crossed the next test looks better.

AJC - So stoked for you!!! Look at your gorgeous little ticker! Jan 26th is just long enough after christmas for the bubba not to get upset about getting joint xmas/birthday gifts

Thanks Issy and KrystieLove - Feeling a bit better now and my boobs are killing me so I wont give up just yet.

KrystieLove - Well done on first class honours in Biology, that is a massive achievement!! What career path have you ended up following with that? We're all going to be asking you heaps of Q's about our bizarre bodies now we know you're an expert. What did you write your honours thesis on? Unfortunately I dont get to have any of the social side of uni. I just go there my two days per week and sit in the lectures myself, then I have to get home to get DS so I dont get the opportunity to do much else. All the others are like 20 anyway and must think I'm really old. I ask them questions sometimes but cant say I have really made any friends yet. Maybe next semester, I'll make it my goal to make at least one friend at uni!

Betty - How are you hun, are you still feeling down? Sounds like we both had a really ordinary day. Good luck for tomorrow, hope it's all good news.

Jen- for got to say, it's hard to tell from your chart but I suspect you O'd today? Did you have any pains, etc? I expect your temp may go up tomorrow.

jodsan: its not over till AF shows her ugly head...Im at the same place as you right now...CD30, havent tested yet, coz i cant face another BFN.
ajc: thats so wonderful, so happy for you! i cant imagine how wonderful it will be to see a HB for the first time
issy: praying for you and sending lots of sticky vibes your way!
Jen: good luck catching the little guys!

AFM, CD30, no AF, but not feeling any "good" symptoms eaither. My temp is now back down to pre O, so not looking good, but...i continue to say...its nto over till i see AF.
Have been so emotional lately, got to work yesterday, and the girl who sits next to me (who i dont know very well, im still new there!) came in and said "how are you?" and i burst into fit of tears that lasted about half an hour! This is so incredibly hard....
