I will keep you posted,I am just pleased that I appear to have ovulated - 3 weeks to the day of my ERPC- my last MMC went on for months - bleeding for 9 weeks and not having a period for another 4 after that so I am glad I seem to be getting back to normal quicker this time xx

LadyGoneGaga · 15/11/2010 17:11

Aw hon. Well you never know but agree doesn't look like your month. I have my fingers crossed for you that you will get some good news on the living together front!

batteryhen · 15/11/2010 16:53

again

have tried again to include SWI pathetic efforts. FF rates my chances as 'low'this month...REALLY???? even I realise you have to have sex to get pregnant Blush

batteryhen · 15/11/2010 16:39

here

Let me know if you can see my poor excuse for a chart

batteryhen · 15/11/2010 16:27

ok :( but you are not all to laugh :(

ps.how do you do it?

LadyGoneGaga · 15/11/2010 16:18

Oh put it up, battery. Grin

batteryhen · 15/11/2010 16:16

ladyg hooray hooray:)

I am really pleased for you xx heres hoping you have set off a trend on this thread!

Well FF said I ovulated on Friday, slow rise in temp and then today my temp shot up and had more EWCM today - what is going on? I did however get ov pains last Friday - so I will see what AF does, when it arrives.

I was going to put my chart on for you all to stalk but am rather embarassed Blush at my lack of SWI, but it is only because we don't see each other often:( life would be easier if we lived together - but there may be good news on that front and should know more this week.

Other news is that I had a pelvic scan today - all looks normal, small fibroid, but nothing to say why I have MC twice, so will wait and see what my gp says.

Hello to everyone- hope Monday wasn't too dreadful :)

digitalgirl · 15/11/2010 13:51

Grin hooray for ladyggg!!! Grin

Hope this one is a sticky one for you!

TerrysNo2 · 15/11/2010 10:54

I can understand that LadyG. I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed (but not legs Grin) that I can join the August AN myself.

LadyGoneGaga · 15/11/2010 10:50

I will prob stick around anyway as enjoy chart stalking and want to get some good news from you ladies!

It is due 28th July but don't think I'll join the antenatal yet until I'm more confident about it. Was a bit horrible last time as didn't know anyone in the group very well. Having to tell them I'd lost it and really felt like most people hardly knew who I was much less cared. So will leave that for a while and jump on later. I might even join August as I hate being the last one in the month!

TerrysNo2 · 15/11/2010 10:31

LadyG so pleased for you (and of course very very Envy!) Smile

I hope it stays well and truly stuck for the next 8 months. Are you off to join July AN or August, which would it be?

I am quite Sad to see you go as you were my first charting friend and answered all my questions, but I don't want to see you back here! Unless its to tell us all about your bump!! Grin

Oh wow, contrats Lady here's hoping it's well and truly stuck!

My chart is here
Nothing to report yet, still too early - My LP have been between 10 and 12 days, so it's another 3 to 5 days at least before I'll start hoping.

LadyGoneGaga · 15/11/2010 10:24

Cross post!

LadyGoneGaga · 15/11/2010 10:23

Spilt your chart looks almost identical to my WTF cycle.

But just to let you know it can work out. Because....I was naughty and tested again this morning. And BFP!Grin!! 11dpo.

I am quite nervous about it because of what happened last time but going to try and relax and enjoy it as I can't really do much to affect the outcome.

spilttheteaagain · 15/11/2010 10:18

Wahaaaay!! Congratulations Lady, you naughty girl I thought you were holding out to test?! Grin

So so pleased for you, and wishing you a healthy uneventful 8 months.

Stay put little bean!

woooooooooooooo hooooooooooo Grin Grin Grin

I am stalking LadyG's chart!!!!!!!!!!!!!

spilttheteaagain · 15/11/2010 09:59

Right I think I am sorted now, looks like AF has begun. Mysterious cycle over and fingers crossed there will be some sense of normality now.

chart

I probably only had a 7 day LP this time, but knowing that's what you had on your WTF cycle Lady makes it less worrying.

I was very brave and had my thyroid antibodies blood test today (I have always been a needle wuss and have cried/passed out on previous occasions but today coped fine, thank goodness. Maybe I am developing some guts!)

How is everyone else?

Hey ladies, just popping in to say hello.

Hope all is well. Still no temp shift for me - boo!

So sick of the sight of my husband!! Blush

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 14/11/2010 18:23

Sorry some of you are having such a pants time, and sorry AF finally got you MrsA after teasing you.

FF has confirmed my OV day which coincides with the twinges I was getting on Thursday.
Am feeling pretty positive this month, as we seem to have covered all bases :) www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2de1f3

LadyGoneGaga · 14/11/2010 15:47

We were a bit like that, battery although less extreme as DP only in Leeds which is only a couple of hours away - he's here with me now though 80% of time Grin. It's blooming hard. But worth remembering sperm will live a few days so in with a better chance. Will you be together over Christmas for a while - will that be during the sexy time?

Two week wait going on FOREVER! You end up wishing your life away. Going to hold out to test again. Hate the BFN's.

spilttheteaagain · 14/11/2010 12:27

Still looking good Lady Smile

Battery fingers crossed that your dates work out next month. It must be an absolute nightmare trying to second guess your body. If only he could leave you a full turkey baster to administer when necessary! Wink

Who said romance is dead?

LadyGoneGaga · 13/11/2010 22:19

Thanks for the article, Spilt Very interesting.

Hard to tell with a slow rise MrsA but def there or thereabouts. You def put the effort in so hope it all pays off!

Oooh, thanks Digi, do you think so? Will have to see what happens in morning.
Glad you are starting to feel a bit more yourself.

batteryhen · 13/11/2010 22:18

hello everyone :)

have been absent for a few days as seem to be permenantly knackered - but have been reading all your posts:)

terrys sorry af got you - I hope you are guzzling some wine somewhere :)

mrsa I suposse the only way you will know what the hell is going on is when af does (or doesn't:) ) arrive x

digi glad to hear no crying today sounds positive, and a step forward :)

split I know what you mean about pg symptoms being the same as af - I always thought af was coming before I got my bfp.

ladyG day 9???? Grin mind you - I got my bfp on day 10 last time (and tested from about day 8 Blush - fingers crossed for you xxx

I had my 2nd acupuncture session today which was good. She used this herb thing which smelt like pot Shock so I ended up smelling like a drug dealer all day..... I have had lots of ov signs over the past few days - lots of pain last night and this morning my temps are up. So on that basis I have arranged a flight to germany for exactly one month so fingers crossed I fall back into my normal regular cycle

Hope everyone is ok - and having a good weekend xxx

digitalgirl · 13/11/2010 21:48

mrsa have you ever thought about taking agnus castus? It seems you have a slow-rise in progesterone with such a slow increase in temps. AC is supposed to be v helpful for balancing hormones. Can take a couple of cycles to kick in. You stop taking it after a bfp.

lady do I detect the beginnings of a, dare I say it, triphasic shift? Grin

Haven't blubbed today. That's got to be a good sign. Also cervix is feeling like it does before it turns fertile. Hoping will ov within next couple of weeks. In fact may get back on the AC myself.
