mollycat--I had a great sleep, thanks! I hope you're having sweet dreams as I'm typing this! Temp's still behaving--check it out, it went up today! How are you doing, hon, you've been quiet lately...
Van--Guess you need a raincheck for your raincheck! Looked for you again this am--where are you, girl??? Your temps still above coverline-- AF isn't showing for a reason!
Rachel--I'm pretty sure there's 2 lines there! Looks like a BFP to me!
joey--I LOVE it when you're weak! The 24 hours you were gone seemed longer for me than it did for you!
Easha--You usually O pretty early, right? You about to put on your BD shoes?
Hey my ticker makes it look like today is CD1--it's not...in case anyone is freaking out! Ok, Rachel, here's my update: CD30/16DPO and FF says I should test on Tue. You would freak out if I made you wait that long, wouldn't you?
Thought I started to feel some cramps and back pain about a half hour ago... but temp is still high, so I don't know... just not sure if this will be the month for me! I don't really have an inkling in either direction... and really don't want to waste the money on a test if I don't have to! I was pretty p!ssy yesterday, and also very emotional--could be a sign of either one! Thought that my bb's seem different lately--they don't hurt, just feel different. But they have in past months, too, so not really considering that as an option! Have also taken naps in the afternoon for the last 3 days, but have been cleaning like crazy all week, and up early every morning, so it could just be that. I could explain away every symptom so far! Also had some pinching/pulling pains on my left I think the day before yesterday...same side I had O pain... Other than that, that's about it. So I may cave and buy a test today if we go to the store, but I may just wait until tomorrow to see if AF shows up. Last mo I had a 29 day cycle, but mo. before that was 30 days...so we'll see what happens today. Could AF still show today with the temp I had this am, or would it have to start going down first? Anyone know?
smilanatu--Hope you had a special day yesterday... thinking of you!
Toccara--Hi, hon! Hope you're enjoying your weekend!
Krystie--Can't wait for you to finish that book!! You've gotta read another one of his when you're done with that one! Sorry, at times I can be pushy.... I'm very passionate about reading!
Still picturing Drew Fuller! Maybe that's what Jeff looks like! { Insert drooling smilie here!}
Hi Ruthie! How's it goin'?
plc--You haven't popped in lately... you still lurking? I'm sure you are! I hope things are going well with you and your
Hi Katiegirl (in case you're lurking, as well!) Is your still being cheeky with DH?
jenushka--followed up in the PAML thread... sorry to hear about your trouble with the preadmission booking... some people are severely lacking in the empathy dept! And it would be a big deal to me, too--after what you've been through, she shouldn't be rubbing it in your face that you aren't past that milestone yet! Big No worries, you're going to make it all the way thru your first trimester--and beyond! Keep us posted with how you're doing!
bettyboop--Have to stalk you in the PAML thread--you aren't updating us! Congrats on being 7+ weeks! Yay! I'm so happy for you!! Keep us posted!!
Jen... Yuu run with it which ever way is comfortable for you.... If you want to wait a few days then wait.. if you want to test then test.. its not for us or anyone to do anything except for be there for you.... at the end of the day you need to deal with your results either way... so do the best for you and do what is right for you......
Hey Jen I just got off work so I'm super tried about to take a nap I wish I could enjoy my weekends but I always work but at list me and DH have the same off days ...
Ok I'm DPO 2 I'm not really expecting anything this cycle which ok I will be happy with a september or nov baby ...
Rachel - Hope you enjoy your horse riding. Good on you for not wrapping yourself up in cotton wool.
What's FMU?
Jen - Ahhhhhh. Thanks for missing me
You could always go and get a BT. Are they free for you over there??
Toccara - Thanks for your welcome back! Also, thanks for answering my 'sex causes mc?' thread. Haven't broken the news to DH yet, but if we get UTD this month, there's going to be a dry spell. I'm sure I can amuse him other ways without wanting to head butt our little bean!
AFM - Watched 'Room 1408" last night. A Stephen King movie. Geeeez. Spent more time looking at DH instead of the screen. Figured I'd know when to look back by the expression on his face!! SCARY!
I know they say that sex doesn't cause MC, but I have had 2 MC's in a row and both of them started within 2-4 days following the first sex after implantation. So, to make that clearer. We BDed, implated, BFP, BDed again, then MCed.
Seems a bit too much of a coincidence to me.
Any suggestions??
Got DH BDing last night. My FS told me that you shouldn't just wait till O time cause then all the sperm are old, so we started 2 days ago, and I'm working on every 2nd day till O (except for when I'm on school camp). But that's only 2 nights, so we'll just have to have a 2 night rest instead of a 1 night rest. This IS going to be the month! Healthy sperm, prog pess, no DTD after implantation ... any thing else I can throw in there??
Off to a family picnic today. It is my Nana's birthday tomorrow and she passed away just wver a year ago, so every year on her birthday weekend we are going to have a family picnic. What a lovely idea. I'm really looking forward to it. Hope the sun comes out!!
It's been a while .... CHART STALKING TIME!!!
Jen - Check out the huge rise you have in your biphasic pattern. Well done! Mine is nothing like that. Perhaps that's why my prog is dropping??? Can't wait to hear from you. I'll PM you my mobile number and if you get a BFP, I want a text !!!!!
KL - Looking good. Ready for a jump any day now.
Vanaithi - Any day now. Hope that - turns to a + on your chart!
Molly - Hope you've had your BDing shoes on. That's a beautiful drop on your temp yesterday.
Teen - How are you hun? Haven't heard from you for a while.
Tutmae - Wow. You must have had some sleepless nights. Your CM says you DTD at the right time tho. SO fingers crossed!!!
Take care lovelies.
Chat tonight.
PS - Where's that keyboard/mouse warmer? My fingers are just about frozen solid!!
Joey - if you find the keyboard/mouse warmer I want one too. My fingers are just about frozen off. Yes, we've been BDing. Last month we tried the everyday approach - didn't work, so now it's the 36 hour (or thereabouts) approach - it's worth the try.
I'd agree with the no BD'ing after +test, for just a while, it seems to much of a coincidence. Might be nothing, but not worth it.
Have fun at the family picnic. I wish our family would do something like that, but there's always someone who ruins it.
Jen - good luck with testing whenever you decide to do it. And if AF (AB) should happen to turn up at your door, kick her you know where. Thanks for asking after me - I'm ok, i've been stalking a bit, a little bit busy with the kids and just having some quiet reflection time in the middle of it all. I'm still around, still TTC but nothing much is happening. I've decided weekends should be a few days longer, there is just not enough time to do everything I need to do.
BTW - I got the results of that module back 'I'M COMPETENT" (They don't really know me). It's good, cause that's another one out of the way - so all that worry about nothing, I thought they'd send it back imcomlete or do extra on something. Now I just need to find an hour and finish the next one. BUT I'M NOT STRESSING.
Jen I didn't mean to put any pressure on you to test, sorry if I did. You take your time hunny, I just want a bfp so bad for you.
As for my bfp, well I'm wonering about it now as I tested tonight to get nothing so I'm going to try again in morning and see its the FMU which is more effective. I went around Tesco shopping tonight though and my boobs feel awfully heavy, to top it all I cant stop having toilet runs..
Another thing which is bothering me is nausea swings and also a constant headache? IS HEADACHES A SYMPTOM? hmm
rachelswirl - I struggle to keep up & am not sure if we've really met but it's sounding really good for you. I got little headaches early on with this pg. Good luck and hope that line gets darker & you have a h&h pg!!!
new thread -
Wishing you all a BFP for this thread.
LizJessie - thanks for bringing me up to date on the latest thread rules etc. I lose track! Can't believe how close your wedding is now - that is so exciting!!!
Jen - my temp used to go down around 1 -2 (usually 2) days prior to af. Good luck, your chart looks good.
Jen: Coverline is back! WTF!
Also, did you like 1408? DH and I watched it and HATED it (and I'm a big fat scaredy cat who's desparately in love with John Cusack).
Jen - I was the one who Ov late (Day19).... Am taking B6 now so hopefully will Ov a little earlier. Unfortunately my temp did not drop until AF had fully kicked in.... hope for you it stays high - your chart looks great
Rachel - yes headaches are a symptom for some... how many DPO are you now??
Joey - Not sure about the sex vs MC I would hate that to be the case.... the only thing I refrained from last time was orgasms (TMI) I did not want the little bean vibrating off the walls . I will have a look at your thread soon
Have a great family picnic - beautiful idea
AFM - passing the time... gyno appt 4 sleeps away and preparing all my questions and best assertive voice.
Toccara--Hope you enjoyed your nap! I wish I could've taken one--it's about 8:00 and I'm ready for bed! Look who's turning into a nana!
joey--FMU=first morning urine. Also, the thing about BD'ing causing m/c...I guess anything's possible. When I was pg last time I would get really bad cramps after BD'ing, so we were always scared something bad would happen. Ironically it was BD'ing that helped induce my m/c--it's not what caused it, the baby had passed 5 weeks prior without us knowing I already plan on there being a dry spell for DF and I when I get my BFP--better to be safe than sorry!
Going to see how my temp looks in the am before I buy a test tomorrow. If it's on it's way down in the morning, I won't even bother. If it continues going up, then I'll POAS tomorrow for sure!
mollycat--Congratulations on your competence! Thanks for the luck on the testing! Nice temp drop--is it O time? for this cycle!
Rachel--No worries! I wasn't feeling pressured out by you, I know you're just for me! Thanks! Good luck in the am with FMU--I'm praying you get a nice, dark line!
Hi AJC! Thanks, hon! Hope you're doing well!
tutmae-- Yay! Your coverline--it's back! FF is temperamental this month! That was joey that watched 1408, I've never seen it! Hope to talk to you in the am! (tonight)
Jen - I think it's really sweet that Angel and Rachel are so supportive of you waiting to POAS until you feel it's the right time. Wish I could tell you I feel the same... but... OMG I just want you to POAS!!! Drew Fuller wants you to as well, and how can you resist those pleading, adorable, heart-melting, sexually stirring EYES?!
Toccara - Never lose hope sweetness
Joey - Welcome back miss mega-post! Every tww my poor DH gets a dry spell. I'm always to scared that we'll stir things up too much. All the drs say it's safe, but I think I'll wait until after the 12week mark to be on the safe side.
Your family picnic sounds like a beautiful thing!
Mollycat - Congrats with your module!!!
Rachel - I've heard that headaches can be a symptom. Probably something to do with increased blood supply or something. Fingers crossed for you!
AJC - So glad everything is going well with your bubba
Tutmae - So glad you got your coverline back
AFM - My temp went up a bit today so I'm wondering if I ovulated yesterday or overnight. I didn't really feel anything, so not sure yet. I felt a tiny twinge around 3ish in the afternoon yesterday, but ovulation usually hurts me for a day or so. I AM taking more vitamins this month, so maybe they fixed the ovulation pain and I just didn't feel it. I can never really tell the difference between EGCM and semen, so CM readings can't really help me, lol!

Looks like a BFP to me!

No worries, you're going to make it all the way thru your first trimester--and beyond! Keep us posted with how you're doing!
I already plan on there being a dry spell for DF and I when I get my BFP--better to be safe than sorry!
