Charter's Anonymous: Volume 3, here's to better luck this time for us all!

if I have been lurking and just had a look at that site you linked to.

I have to say that as far as the emotions go I can feel all those in 1 day - apart from the increased sex drive - haha.

Love to all.

oh that's pants MrsA - make sure you enjoy that wine!!!

AF arrived today. Bugger fuck. Off to open bottle of vino.

My LP varies but is normally 14/15 days. So if no AF by Thursday night/Friday Morn - I'll test!

My god - I've just googled a sore throat as an early symptom and came across this site that lists loads. I'm sure I can check off most of them on a normal day!!!

Positive sounding symptoms IF

Is sore throat a symptom? Hope so me too! (10dpo)

Hi there ifatfirst - dodgy temp as in low? I hope you are not actually dead! Maybe the battery is going?

How long is your LP normally? I.e. are you "late" yet, or not yet?

I've come down with a sore throat today too

Well, 13DPO and no sign of AF, however my BBT gave me a dodgy temp this morning - basically, if I believed it I think I would actually be dead! . Anyhoo, I only noticed it after I had been up & about for a bit and had had a shower, so I've had to discard this morning's temp. Therefore, I have no idea if AF is around the corner or if I can still cling on to a bit of hope!

Have still been getting cramps & watery CM which could be AF, boobs still feel like rocks. Also felt a bit bleugh today, but I've also got a bit of a sore throat, so think I may be coming down with something (oh joy).

Just got the faintest line on an OPK, I am hoping this means that it is gearing up for O-Day!!

Hello all!

Hi ladies!

Sorry to see your temps have taken another dip today MrsA... Do you feel that AF is on the way?

Mine have taken a hike today GetDown's Chart but probably only because I had a terrible night, with hardly any sleep

Anyone else suffer with insomnia?? It is such a pain when it comes to charting!

Wow you guys have been busy in here!
split I hope today is a better day for you. And thank you for the advice re my thyroid, you would think that the doc would give us some kind of info!!
Morning all, hope you all are well. There are so many on this thread now I'm not sure where to start, not that I have much to say being a newbie to this site. Think I may be out again for this month as the cramps have worked their way in so I think I will try temping this time but may come to you all for you expert advice :) hope that's ok.

Oh LadyG I didn't realise you had an early scan last time. I had also heard that once you heard HB the risk was very low. I am very for your loss (not sure if I have said that before.) I think that the scan is nice to see and be reassured that it exists and it can bridge the long gap between BFP and 12 week scan but I don't think it will remove your fears. So all in all, I have no idea what to suggest!

This whole TTC-ing, being PG and being a parent just throws us into a non-stop world of worrying, why do we do it to ourselves!?!?

That's fine! I'm always discarding wonky temps. Naughty girl.

We could afford a private scan but TBH not sure how much it would reassure me. I always heard if you saw a HB then you only had a 3% chance of miscarrying. Sounds reassuring, right? Well I was that 3%. So not sure. But it's all sooo looong away. Not even 5 weeks til Thursday

Only because I discarded the wonky temp though

sorry about the crappy day split and the unhelpful woman. I think some people just have very low emotional intelligence.

I don't really know about your spotting I'm afraid, definitely worth asking at your next appointment. I'm sure it's just the hormones settling down though.

I've got over my moment of madness earlier re, the progesterone cream. Twas a stupid idea. Ah well.

Hope your temps do a big leap tomorrow MrsA.

Here's my chart GetDown's chart I've been a bit naughty and "discarded" my strange reading yesterday. We'll see what tomorrow brings!

Ah, sorry spilt please don't think I am a cyber stalker! I had read some of that thread before, just put two and two together is all :) could it just be that hormones are a bit squew whiff still hence the strange bleed? My first period post mc was far from normal!

I hope you have to deal with less insensitive folks tomorrow x

LadyG could you afford a private scan? We had one with DS at 8 weeks (because I couldn't believe I was PG!) and it was about £90. I would def pay for one again if we get that far!

spilt I hope Thursday gives you some answers and some comfort!

Ifatfirst I am excited for you! I really hope you and MrsA conceive this month as you two have certainly SWI-ed enough!! I am hoping that is the key for us this month!!

spilt i hope you dont mind me replying. Im sorry to hear you are having to deal with that at work :( you are strong for being back already with what you have gone through. (i caught up on the late MC thread started by iloveblue so now i know your background)

Re the bleeding.... are you still in the WTF cycle post MC or have you had 1 period already? Or was that it? my MC bleed lasted for 3 weeks, i then didnt AF for another 4 weeks but i had sporadic bleeding in between where it quite literally (TMI filled pants and it was red/clotty. From what i have read, heard on here the body takes time to recover, and can play all sorts of mind games on you post MC...sadly. It can also take a bit of time for 'everything' to clear the womb.

You are doing really well, xx

Back for more charting advice in a couple of days x

Fingers crossed, Ifat!

Hi Spilt not sure on the bleeding. Could it be the end of AF? Or, the othe thought I had is that you may have a bit of cervical erosion after the pregnancy and birth and having sex just irritated it and caused the bleeidng? If you're concerned maybe call the Doctor. Did they give you a number for follow up care at all?

And sorry that woman was such a bitch. Some people have no idea

I have no early scan offered/planned in. My booking appt is at 8 weeks so will mention it then if get that far. I bled early on with with DS and with the one I lost so would seem odd to wait til 12 weeks for a scan. Although I REALLY don't want to see any blood.

UCL is 28/29 days, so FF has given me a test day of Friday!

Spilt - so sorry to hear about the insensitive comments that you've had to deal with "ah well these things happen" So for you!
