Hello all - Just doing a de-lurk. I am only on CD11 so I tend to get a but :( about the whole ttc thing in the first 2 weeks so apologies for my silence. BUT DP IS HOME :) if only for 3 days - so hope catch an eggy :)

terrys we are on the same cd I think - lets hope we are both lucky this month xx

mouse~ and if I feel like I have been around for ages too. This thread moves so fast that I find I can read it but just not have time to post.

Really brill news about the recent pg's. :)

digi dp is hopefully coming home for good in June which is great - which means a move down south which I really don't mind as long as we are together.

Big wave to everyone - I really can't keep up with all the names but do keep an eye on you all xx

mousebacon · 05/02/2011 18:57

Yes, that's v true. I kind of wish we had stats so I could remind myself of all our grads.

This is day 9 of WTF so in it for the long haul too. I reckon it'll be march before we're ttc again. Here's to a Christmas baby Smile xx

ochaye · 05/02/2011 18:46

Do you normally have such short cycles tory? I'm the opposite ... my cycles drag on for 31 days normally. This WTF cycle was 37 days Sad. I can empathise ifat.

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 05/02/2011 18:46

I think we may be mouse I'm getting rather confused with all these new names. Although, it just goes to show how lucky this thread seems to be :)

mousebacon · 05/02/2011 18:42

Hi ladies, just popping in Smile

ifat - depressing thought, are we the longest serving members on here? Ugh. Doom. Still love charting though Smile

tory79 · 05/02/2011 18:34

Bah! I was feeling secretly hopeful this month, but not any more Sad

I sense a short cycle coming on

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 05/02/2011 18:32

Have been away for a couple of days and have missed so much..... congrats on your fantastic BFPs Strawberry & Katee . Still nowt to report here, this is the longest & most boring cycle in my life, AF is normally round the corner by now,but I havent even ovuated yet! www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2de1f3 I am getting very impatient now!!!! Grin

weimy · 05/02/2011 15:35

oops first :) is meant to be a :(

weimy · 05/02/2011 15:35

Newgoldendream sorry about AF :) I think it does help to start thinking about 'this' cycle, feels like you are being pro active :)

Katee hope you are well! I am cd9 and hoping that ov does not arrive next weekend when I am away.

Well my temps are very low this month and all over the place Confused but my sleep is very disrupted, either by the dogs or my DH breathing.

hope everyone is ok :)

MrsArchchancellorRidcully · 05/02/2011 15:34

Having a cosmo and Wine ladies.

Totally fucked off.
My body is clearly broken.

Am off to put my head under duvet and may return tomorrow.

Karbea · 05/02/2011 15:27

Hello girlies, I've had very light spotting today and did a test and was neg so af I guess will be starting soon :(

Newgolddream · 05/02/2011 11:24

terrysno2 - aww thank you. SmileSmile

I will take you up on the Wine although it will probably have to wait until I strip the sheets from sicky DS2s bed lol.

TerrysNo2 · 05/02/2011 10:03

Morning all

Sorry for AF arrival newgolddreams give those boys an extra big cuddle today and get back on SWI wagon soon! Smile Oh and a Wine for you!

toddler arrival, catch up later!

Newgolddream · 05/02/2011 08:53

Morning!

Sadly ravenlocks and mrsp81 my bleeding has got heavier, I was praying desperately hoping that it waould be an implantation bleed, but no. Still feeling quite down, but I know form past experience its better to look forward now and concentrate on this cycle, that ones past and Im not pregnant. Ive often said I wouldnt mind how long it takes as long as I knew that I would def get a BFP at the end of this, but for us all the most stressful part is not knowing isnt it.

And then I feel bad because Ive got 3 lovely boys and I know some people are ttc no1, so I dont think its as bad for me obviously. Except I just want a baby. Its great having here for support - and I value everyone here - because I havent told anyone Im ttc, Im scared of the inevitable "oh trying for a girl" comments - which Im not, I dont care, just want a healthy baby. Plus because Im 40 Im sure I would get some comments re that.

Anyway how is everyone else?

Kateepie have you tested again this morning?

karbea - chart looking good!

Oh and ravenlocks yes Im going to try OPKs this month, bumper pack from Ebay just turned up. Grin

essence sorry about your BFN I know how much of a pisser that is. And thanks I did go out, we went to see my cousins wee boy in The Wizrd of Oz and I loved it.Smile

Thanks kateepie, ochaye and auntiedoris from the friends request on FF - I will be stalking you all now!!! Like you jaggy I cant work out how to send request Confused

jaggythistle · 04/02/2011 21:01

'Am I', not 'I am' dumb of course, you may beg to differ...

jaggythistle · 04/02/2011 21:00

I am dumb too - I can't see the link to add people from their homepage?

Can people please take pity and add me till I work it out?

boring cd1 chart

ravenlocks · 04/02/2011 20:32

katee yipee for your BFP.

Am I really dumb... What do you do after you have added a friend? Do you know how you see their chart?

I accepted you AD but then had to click 'dismiss' to get it to do anything else...so not sure if it worked.

Thanks MrsP yeah I am ok. It almost feels like it didn't happen now, from BFP to M/C was only 5 days and feels a bit unreal.

essenceofSES · 04/02/2011 20:12

Hello! I've been away with work for a couple of days and there's so much to catch up on!
I'm feeling quite :( though as not looking so good for me this cycle. Temp down nearly to coverline, symptoms disappearing (except for cramping which could be AF) and some brown spotting this evening. DH persauded me to do a test earlier and I told him it was too early (10dpo) but went and secretly did one anyway and obviously got a BFN :(

Anyway, enough of me!
Katee AND Strawberry - fantastic news for you both Grin Grin Grin

jaggy - sorry you're out this month

MrsP - good luck for your 2ww!

karbea - your chart is looking good!!

ochaye - I don't think you've done a terrible thing!! Hopefully in a few weeks' time, she'll be thanking you!

NewGold - did the witch turn up properly? Hope you managed to get out tonight

Hello everyone else! Will try an catch up on everyone else's news too....

MrsP81 · 04/02/2011 19:23

Chart looks good Karbea, I will be stalking you!

MrsP81 · 04/02/2011 19:21

Hello all!

Congratulations katee! Hope that line keeps getting stronger. Smile

newgold, I really hope that is an implantation bleed. Same for you MrsA and hope that AF is not on her way.

Hi raven, I was thinking yesterday that we hadn't seen you for a while and hoped you were ok. Lol at "the business end" of your cycle.

FF has now confirmed that I am on 2ww, yay! I am very busy at work next week so hopefully that will keep me distracted. And then we are going away next weekend so lots to keep my mind elsewhere. (As if that will work!) Here is my chart.

Have lovely weekends everyone with lots of Wine if needed.

Karbea · 04/02/2011 19:10

Hello,

Here is my chart what do you think?

I'm normally a 24 day cycle, so planning on testing on Sunday.

Haven't had any symptoms really, apart from a fluttery belly, and slight (very slight) queasyness, but that could be body clock being screwed.

xx

ravenlocks · 04/02/2011 18:26

Guys hello! I haven't been on much a sulking a bit as you know. The thread has moved a bit fast for me the last couple of weeks to keep up. But am back in action and getting towards the business end of the cycle as am in full SWI mode.

Am currently holding in a wee so I can POAS to do my OPK in half an hour!

Here is my chart CHART.

Not alot to see, am on CD12 and not got any signs of impending ov yet...

Congrats to the BFPs and hello to the newbies... especially you tedds!

ochaye · 04/02/2011 18:24

Ooooooo ... I love this Wine ... it's my absolute favourite!

Have you heard the zodiac signs have all changed!? How can they do that??

ravenlocks · 04/02/2011 18:21

Don't want to give you false hope newgold but are you sure it isn't an implantation bleed? I say this as your temp dropped yday and then went back up which could have been an implantation dip which would cooincide with the timing. Also I noticed you say your bleeding is light. Is that normal for you?

Alternatively FF could be wrong about ov as you didn't really have a strong temp rise afterwards. Best thing to do is maybe give it more data next time, by way of OPK testing mid cycle. More likely to get accurate cross hairs.

If it is all correct and you do have a LP of 7 days I am not sure what can be done to lengthen, but others on this threads or board will for sure as I don't think it is that uncommon.

Newgolddream · 04/02/2011 18:11

Well guess what showed up today? Yep, Im gutted.Sad
Even more worrying than my 22 day cycle is taht FF said I ov on CD15, which makes a scarily short of LP of only 7 days!! What can I do??

The other option is I ov earlier than FF thinks, maybe CD 11, which would make a LP of 11.

Heres my chart (obviously last month now)

Any opinions gratefully recieved!

Im meant to be going out and now the way Im feeling I can see it far enough....
