katee Wooo exciting!!!

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 16:16

jaggy it is [] with wine in the middle :)

I wouldn't worry about your lp being a day or so out, nothing ever seems that consistent with our bodies!

Good luck with the work surfing addiction! I'm hopeless!

Thanks weimy where are you at at the moment?

weimy · 04/02/2011 16:12

katee Congrats!!!!

jaggythistle · 04/02/2011 15:55

i wish, terrys- working till 10 tonight. Shock

will have to wait till Sunday night, going to try and finish early then.

i have already informed DH that extra swi effort will be required this month, not sure if he's sacred or happy...

woo Kateepie, that's great news. Grin

what does it mean that my lp was 13 days instead of 12 this cycle? anything? i suppose it was only a few hours away from being 12 again.

how does one get a wine emoticon? i have missed this important development!

i will be on here less tonight, am restricting myself to break times and occasional phone checks. :) now that i have broken my early test addiction i am trying the tougher task of cutting down my work surfing. i like having a job.

Karbea · 04/02/2011 14:37

okhaye what's the site? I've 2 beautiful single fyiends. I'm sure your friend will be ok about it.

My temp is still up, but I've not idea if it's accurate as I'm away, mo sleep, time diff etc will test on Sunday I think.

Sorry about typos on my iPhone.

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 13:54

Laughing at ochaye I'm sure your friend won't mind too much, sounds like she needs a kick up the backside Grin

Thanks for the good wishes terrys good luck with the swi-ing this month!

TerrysNo2 · 04/02/2011 13:53

jaggy sorry AF got you, so this first proper usage is for you - a large glass of Wine!!

Grin
TerrysNo2 · 04/02/2011 13:51

Congrats kateepie hope that line keeps getting darker and stronger.

I also think I missed strawberry's BFP so big congrats there too! Grin

I am CD10 and just started OPK-ing.

How exciting is this new emoticon: Wine!!!!!

ochaye · 04/02/2011 13:24

OMGOODNESS kateepie!!! How exciting! Your persistence paid off Grin.

Sorry af got you jaggy. Hope you're doing ok today.

Thanks for the "friends" tip - I hadn't spotted that. Will be sending out requests so pleeeeeease say yes!

I've done a terrible thing. I have a beautiful, warm hearted single friend. She's finding it hard to meet people as our group of friends have got to that stage where we're all settling down. She's tried internet dating but spends too much time on the chit chat and never gets round to meeting people. So I signed her up for a new site last night to see how it went!! And now she's had TONS of interest and I don't know what to do next!! I'd love to set up some dates and just tell her where to meet them ... but even I know that's taking it too far Grin. So I'm going to have to try and get her round for a glass of wine tonight, confess and see if we can get something sorted coz some of these guys are hot! Oops!!!!

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 13:19

Hi newgold yep I bought loads of the cheapy ones, so still have 3 of those left, and 5 of the slightly less sensitive test strips too. Keep having to look at it to check its not just my eyes playing tricks on me (is microscopically thin)

:)

Newgolddream · 04/02/2011 13:16

Omg,have you got any left for the morning, yoiu must be so excited !

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 11:42

Breaking news!

Working from home today so all self control has gone out of the window where poas is concerned... third test of the day produced a v. thin v. faint line... Grin woooooop

Newgolddream · 04/02/2011 10:19

Thanks hardertokidnap, Im hoping it goes up again tomorrow - but feeling strangely pessimistic, I think you coome to expect it eh.

Thanks for that katepie Smile, I never noticed that before, and have been toing and froing back pages here looking at charts lol.

Am at work (better get back lol) so will do it from home tonight.

MrsArchchancellorRidcully · 04/02/2011 10:17

Moerning all. Well after 6 cycles of obssessive charting, I did not take my temperature today. Tbh, the stress and worry is/was too stressful! Having said that, I wish i had now but it probably wouldn't have been right anyway as I was up at 5.30am with DD wanting to play (yawn).

Still no sign of bleeding and boobs still tender (not sore)but have started feeling a bit crampy, so think af may well turn up tomorrow (which would be right, giving me an 11 day LP).

If I'm right, then I have no idea what happened on 9dpo. A full on bleed for an hour and the only charts showing implantation spotting are all pg ones - there are no ov ones (unless people haven't recorded them as pg of course).

Sigh. Don't know what to think. Part of me wishes I had taken my temp, part of me is glad I didn't. I think I will take it tomorrow though.

Katee chart looking good. And with DD I didn't get a bfp will cd42 - 15dpo.

Strawberry hoping all goes well (and hoping there's hope for the rest of us!!)

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 10:10

Looking at some of the pg charts on ff, it looks as though a lot of people get their BFP the day or so after a temp rise, so hope, hope, hope! Grin

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 09:59

Thanks mrsden I hope so! Feel more 'normal' today, but hoping thats a good sign as every other month I have felt v. pg and wasn't... sods law!

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 09:57

newgold when you click on the link to see the chart,there is an 'add as friend' option top left of the page... you should have a friend request from me when you log in!

xx

mrsden · 04/02/2011 09:56

Congratulations strawberry, I completely missed that one yesterday, fantastic news Smile

Sorry AF got you jaggy, CD2 is a little better but still rubbish Sad

That is a nice looking chart katee. It might just be too early to test yet, fingers crossed.

Newgolddream · 04/02/2011 09:55

Thanks kateepie, how would I go about doing that, I love looking at other peoples charts and then obssessively comparing them to mine. Grin

I think your chart is looking really really good to.

Even though you expected it sorry AF got you jaggy

mrsarch - hows your temperature today?

strawberry - a year - awww thats even more wonderful, I will keep everything crossed for you that this is a sticky wee bean!

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 09:39

Re chart stalking, I think we can add eachother as friends, and then not have to do all the hunting through the thread?

kateepie2 · 04/02/2011 09:37

Morning!

Not feeling quite so sick today, which is a blessing as I had to eat constantly yesterday just to keep on top of it!

Got a nice surprise with my temp this morning, see here, tested again and still BFN, poo.

Sorry AF got you jaggy

jaggythistle · 04/02/2011 09:11

morning all.

cd1 at last, randomly a day later than expected. didn't have much doubt thanks to my chart.

quick wave, on phone as usual!

StrawberryCreamTea · 04/02/2011 08:14

Thanks for all the lovely congratulations and good wishes iwish, harder, weimy, katee, ochaye, jaggy, MrsP, MrsA, newgold and everyone else, I'm really touched and it means a lot xx

Still quite shocked to be honest, my chart showed a definite sustained fall around 6-9dpo and then started to rise again after I'd almost given up hope. Not the conventional rise and rise we expect! Am hoping that the post-ov daily pint of pineapple juice and five brazil nuts might have helped too... Grin

iwish I was determined to hold off testing with no previous LP to compare it to, I didn't think I could take the disappointment of an early bfn! No real symptoms at the moment to be honest, just a bit bloated and the odd crampy twinge which I remember from last time (more out to the side, nearer my hip than in the centre - I feared ectopic last time but now I know it wasn't am trying to be a bit more relaxed about it!). Thanks for the grads invite, I'll pop in down the line but my plan for survival at the moment is to put my head in the sand until at least an 8 week scan, otherwise I might go crazy! Hope you're feeling well and full of symptoms xx

newgold We've been ttc#1 for a year now, I had a mmc diagnosed in November though. So really happy and totally scared all at the same time about this bfp! This is my first cycle charting though and looking back I can't believe I didn't try it earlier. FX for your good looking chart! Grin

HarderToKidnap · 04/02/2011 07:13

Morning everyone!

CD9 and nice stable temps for me. Just waiting for ov about day 21.

Newgold, that chart is shaping up beautifully. Nice dip at day 7, and now antoher rise!

Newgolddream · 04/02/2011 07:05

Try again!Grin
