Had an mc and need some wine, chocolate and somewhere to moan and cry? This is the place to be! We chat a LOT so it can be hard to keep up, but everyone on here is great and will hold your hand until you get your BFP.

DontEatOrangeSnow · 14/12/2010 17:54

Evening all, could someone update me to CD28? I think I lost a day somewhere

lady poor thing sounds like something I'd do except I would have POASd as well!
nix I hope time goes quickly and you are back home before you know it

baubles sorry she got you, I wish it was easy for all of us knitter I really hope she stays away

teacake that's awesome news! Xmas Grin

I POASd this morning and negative :( im currently 14dpo, and have weird cervix/back pain, sore nipples(?), and loads of CM. I take all the above to be a sign the red witch is broomsticking over as I type. I had a major mild teary strop to poor DH but am feeling better now and at least I can have another try over Xmas

youremindmeofthebaubles · 14/12/2010 13:45

Sorry teacake in my general self centredness I missed that exciting news! Hurrah For (only this) AF!

wombat Hugs for you too. I am spreading the love now.

MummyBellsAllTheWay · 14/12/2010 13:45

Hi loolu,

I think you have dotted lines because you recorded cervical position and this info doesnt correlate with your temp rise. Are you very sure both data are accurate. Try deleting the CP data and see what FF does (you can put it back again after)

Also keep recording CM data, this is another primary sign (along with temps) so FF may move they lines again if you record EGCM

Looks like you did get one SWI in before ov (according to FF) so all is not lost if this is accurate. xxx

loola2shu · 14/12/2010 13:41

try again mychart

loola2shu · 14/12/2010 13:39

Just a quickie.... will someone see if they can see this....
[[http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2dbbee/rss2724.xml my chart]

I have got myself in a right tizz... have I ovulated and not had timely SWI...is there no chance this month? Its a dotted line so I know that means conflicting info... Confused

Really sorry no personals, I am running out door but hoped that you might have some advice x

MummyBellsAllTheWay · 14/12/2010 13:29

OH TEACAKE!!! Thats great news!!!!!! God I am so relieved for you!! and I am SO SO glad you dont have to worry about AS or hormonal problems or anything else! Hooray for AF!!
PS apart from learning the hard way from all my fertility problems most of the oracle-ness comes from the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler. I really recommend it if you want to get your head around charting, EGCM, OPK's etc.

baubles sorry you didnt get your xmas bean but and 11 day LP is fine!!! Anything less than 10 days is a problem, so you have nothing to worry about. Izzy is our resident LP expert I am sure she will be along soon and probably tell you the same thing.

hi HongKong Yes, it took me a long time to get used to eating salads on xmas day, but this year my family are helping me cook a roast! They are even bringing over christmas crackersGrin I've been out here 9 years now, but I have had a few xmases back home too, must say I prefer the warm weather ones now!

Knitter sorry about the witch, I really thought it was your turn this time. Christmas drinking is the consolation prize ...

Oh, sorry knitter- it's crappy isn't it?

Thanks for your support guys, I feel a bit better now, think I just needed the rant. The lady I work with's mother has just died this morning, and there's nothing like a hefty bout of realism to make you mentally clip yourself around the ear!

Has anyone been trying progesterone cream?

KnitterNotTwitter · 14/12/2010 12:09

Sigh... today's progress report is that it looks like AF is turning up... I guess the sticks were right and she was just a day late after all that.

HongKongBaby · 14/12/2010 11:09

youremindme and ladybeen sorry you're feeling down, we've all been there, stay strong, things will take a turn for the better soon.

tunnocks good news on AF arriving. Are you going to start TTC right away?

mummybells sounds like you have a nice ex-pat Christmas lined up with family there.... tis our 3rd xmas away from UK and I am still not used to it!

nix glad symptoms are there now to reassure you.

News from me is that I have added acupuncture, agnus castus (prescribed by acupuncturist), BBT charting, OPKs, pre-seed and grapefruit juice to my TTC repetoire this cycle.... NOW if that doesn't work I give up I think!! Am 7DPO now, is a novelty to know when to expect AF anyway as usually have no clue and so am on my first official 2WW and trying to retain some shreds of sanity and not get slapped by any wet fish. However, I have to just say, my boobs ARE sore. No, they really are.

Fingers x'd for orange, knitter and anyone else getting to that stage of the game...

& hello to everyone else

hairyfairylights · 14/12/2010 11:00

Big hugs to everyone having a hard time.

orestyemerrywombat · 14/12/2010 10:51

Morning all. Big BIG hugs to all of you lovely ladies who are feeling sad and down ((((hugs)))). Feeling much the same myself, but am holding out for christmas holidays. Only 8 more working days. Just looked at Tuesday's list. Can't believe on I'm CD11 already. Haven't SWIed once yet this month. Don't really want to because I'm so achey down there, but hey ho, I want another BFN month even less.

HidingUnderTheTreeWithSanta · 14/12/2010 10:49

Just correcting my bit on the list as am CD3.

mummyoracle what do I need to do for a short LP?

youremindmeofthebaubles · 14/12/2010 08:53

Oh ladybee. I really feel for you. I feel like that today. I agree with muymmy, matching stockings is a good idea.

The witch arrived, I feel sick and ill, and I'm not getting a Christmas bean. I'm a little fed up, in fact a LOT and feel really fucking depressed. I just want to go home and stick my head under the duvet and come out at Christmas. My chart looks shit I have a 11 day LP, my temps may have started dropping from day 9 I'm not sure because I missed 2 days and I really hate this shit.

Sorry for being a misery. I wish it was easy for all of us.

MummyBellsAllTheWay · 14/12/2010 01:24

oh lady

big hugs for you, I'm so sorry about the madness and tears and flu! Being ill does affect you emotionally too, lets hope both emotions and body are feeling much better tommorrow.

I wish I had bought two stockings, my niece is visiting soon and I had to go and buy a non matching one for her. I think your matching logic is perfect, not bonkers at all. xxx

LadybeenKissingSantaClaus · 14/12/2010 00:24

Not a nag, a bag. Stupid phone.

LadybeenKissingSantaClaus · 14/12/2010 00:23

Hello posting from bed on phone so apols for brevity and typos. hard day today, still ill and woke to an elevated temp, recorded it along with marking illness on my chart but then spent theorning commute being completely mad and persuading myself that maybe the four days of bright red bleeding I've just had weren't actually AF and that temp spike wasn't actually related to the painful chesty cough ... Oh no, must definitely be actually pg. Quite mad. At least i did not allow myself to poas, would have had to check myself into a secure facility if so. Then, after fairly alcoholic work lunch, went christmas shopping. Bought two Christmas stockings. Why 2, have only 1 DS. Well because obviously when the 2nd arrives I'll want a matching stocking and they might not be available next year. Get on train home, think about showing dh my purchases and start bawling while walking home as 1. Am clearly bonkers and this proves it 2. Am convinced I have just 'jinxed' us for a whole 'nother year, 3. See 1 above.
Poor dh. Walked in, tears streaming. He thought I'd left a nag of presents on the train. Oh dear, tomorrow will be better. It has to be.

MummyBellsAllTheWay · 13/12/2010 21:52

thanks girls, I am perking up a bit now. Gawd knows how the poor little orphans got through this, they are all under 5! It was nice seeing their faces when they got presents though. I will take some alcohol hand gel with me next I go...

WhenStNixgotstuckuptheChimney · 13/12/2010 21:36

hellooo mummy feeling ok thanks. nausea has kicked in... bring it on... Xmas Grin I just eat my way through it!!

FX for all the poas'ers in the room tonight.. heres hoping for some christmas beans x

Im in brizzle tomorrow too... then MK... :( away from little man for 3 days :(

IzzyWizzyletsgetChristmassy · 13/12/2010 21:29

mummya sorry, I missed your post, lovely - sorry you're poorly, and after such saintliness too, there's no justice is there?! Hope you feel better soon x
