izzy crapiola.xx

I was just feeling a bit crampy too, but am not due for another 3 days.....

IzzyWizzyletsgetbusy · 22/01/2011 21:04

Knew I should have kept quiet - looks like af is here Sad

batteryhen · 22/01/2011 20:29

terrys if you are going on time travel can you take me with you please??

TerrysNo2 · 22/01/2011 19:43

Evening all, I am obsessing today about my chart, trying not too but I can't help it. I am so convinced its not happening this month but this morning's massive spike is teasing me. Anyone got a fast-forward button for time?

Enjoy the wine battery and everyone else partaking in the wine tonight, I may have a small glass. If you want some ideas for soft drinks then look here.

Slow roast shoulder of lamb about to come out of the oven. Yummmmmmmm

Happy saturdays all.

spilttheteaagain · 22/01/2011 19:29

Scan on Tuesday Iwish so I will update you all in the evening.

Sounds like you might well have battery, they are supposed to be incredibly common and account for a massive chunk of pregnancy losses Sad

Iwish · 22/01/2011 18:08

Hi Battery Hope you enjoy your glass of wine and have a lovely evening too xx

Hi everyone. split I was thinking that I had a CP last month - I got a bfp then the next day nothing and Af was 3 days late so maybe who knows??

Nothing going on here, sat having a glass of red as I really don't think I am pg.

Have a nice evening everyone xx

Iwish · 22/01/2011 17:58

Split im sure there is a lovely little bean in there just waiting for the first little wave :) what date is the scan?

oh Izzy i do hope the evil witch stays away and dont worry about the mememe post, sometimes it helps to have a little rant - i think ive had enough of them on here. xx

How is everyone else?

mmmm just been to M&S and got some lovely looking steak for tea, cant wait! (wouldnt normally shop there as im tight its too expensive but we had some vouchers :))

IzzyWizzyletsgetbusy · 22/01/2011 17:11

spilt no don't worry, not tactless, I did wonder myself if it was cp but didn't bother testing because really, what's the point knowing? See, this is partly why I think this month is a red herring - no hint of going triphasic and if anything temps are heading slowly downwards. Hence the trying not to get my hopes up!!

So iwish I fear it is the evil red witch slowly creeping in...

Anyway sorry for mememe post, will go back to quietly stalking the rest of you Smile

spilttheteaagain · 22/01/2011 16:36

I've been umming and ahhing a bit about whether to post this, as I don't want to cause upset, but Izzy I can't help wonder if your cycle with the 12 day LP was actually a chemical pregnancy. It's the fact that your chart appears to go triphasic for CD10,11,12 and the fact that the LP is uncharacteristically long for you. I think Toni says that the LP usually only varies by 1 day, and if it lasts more than three days longer than usual it's most likely that you've conceived. If that is the case, then you are already beyond your usual LP length and I reckon your chances this time are very good.
I'm sorry if that was a tactless thing to say though.

Thanks Iwish I'm fine today (just knackered, bad night!). Hopefully 10 weeks tomorrow and only a few days until the scan to find out whether there's anyone in there... Confused

Iwish · 22/01/2011 16:25

Thanks Weimy, your chart is looking quite good, i shall be stalking you over the next few days :)

Izzy i wondered where you had gone, had been stalking you for a couple of days. hiding in 'the zone' sounds like a good idea but i think id miss obsessing. i hope the brown cm isnt anything to do with the evil witch :)

Just been out and got DP to buy me a netbook, yey how excting! means i dont have to wait till hes finished with the laptop before i can use it. you will just have to excuse the rubbish spelling and punctuation, i usually use iphone and it corrects all the words for me.

IzzyWizzyletsgetbusy · 22/01/2011 13:12

Sorry I haven't been posting much, have been "in the zone" a bit, stressing but trying not to obsess iykwim!! I'm on day 28 but have been spotting (well more like cm tinged brown - sorry tmi!!!!) since day 24/25. Usually get spotting 1day before af so I've been expecting her to turn up every day and it's putting me on edge!!! I'm 11dpo today, my luteal phase is usually 8-9 but has been known to be 12 so just all a bit Confused. Anyhoo, definitely no poas until Tuesday - that would be day 31 so longest cycle post-mc and 14dpo which would be unheard of for me!! But I'm NOT expecting to get that far!!!!

jaggy and terrys hope your dss' are feeling better soon - terrys your charts looking fab!! Far more interesting than mine!!

weimy · 22/01/2011 13:01

Thanks Battery! x

aw your poor DS terrys. we have 4 molars through now, hoping for a wee break from teething. my last few cycles are full of open circles from being up with him. he is a wee mummy's boy at night especially when poorly so i tend to be up most to settle him. it's frustrating as it's also reduced the amount of possible swi too. :(

he's away to sleep on my knee now. seems in a better mood this morning, has even been dancing to itng tunes on the cbeebies website with DH.

if he goes to sleep in his cot I'll have to go and get DH seeing as no swi yesterday. Blush

TerrysNo2 · 22/01/2011 10:29

TerrysNo2 · 22/01/2011 10:28

Morning all

battery I was worried when I saw your temp drop but it sounds like its not over yet!

Izzy chart looking good, when are you POAS??

jaggy sorry your DS is ill, I hope he gets better soon!

MrsP enjoy the haircut!

DS ruined my temp again this morning but bless him he was in so much pain last night, properly screaming and saying "kiss better mummy" but when I kissed him he would scream Sad, I think he's just cottoned onto the fact that kisses don't cure all Sad Sad. At least he slept from 8.30-5.30 though so he is much happier today. FX those molars are through and over with!

Anyway here is my chart with quite a spike today, but it was taken at 5.30am (although so were the last weeks temps so who knows). Confused Trying not to get my hopes up.

spilttheteaagain · 22/01/2011 09:46

ooh I am also stalking Izzy Smile

Sorry to hear your sleep messed with your temps battery, it's infuriating when that happens on the crucial days!

batteryhen · 22/01/2011 09:39

morning all - jaggy sorry your DS is poorly - it is so miserable for them at that age :(

Just to say my temp is down a bit today - I woke at 4am bursting for a wee so i took it then, but I woke up cold. Went back to bed and took it 3 hours later and it shot up. Am sticking with the low reading though - don't want to pretend to my self that I have a tri phasic pattern when I don't!!

Have a good day all xx

jaggythistle · 22/01/2011 05:15

chart here

temp is up. (so is DS hence the 5am post) didn't get DS to bed till after midnight, DH asleep by then. :-(

hope you all had a better Friday night. :)

jaggythistle · 21/01/2011 23:13

hey MrsP glad you liked the message. Grin

yeah, expecting temp rise soon. line was darker on opk today too.

unfortunately poor DS is having no luck. after marathon teething bouts the last couple of cycles at ov time, this month the poor wee guy has a sickness bug. he's only 16 months old so doesn't understand what's going on. i'm a big wimp and hate seeing him ill. the worst he's had before is i cold. thought he was getting better but he's just been sick again. :(

doubt we'll have much swi energy left at this rate!

good luck everyone.

batteryhen · 21/01/2011 21:51

Oh dear sweet lord - I just did a huge post and lost the lot Angry

Right again

strawberry - I agree with the others - i bet you get cross hairs tomorrow xx

digi - If you were going on temp alone then I might agree with FF but since you are getting lots of EWCM then I think your body is gearing up for it xx

karbea my acupuncturist told me that taking nurofen can delay OV - you might want to have a google ? xx

terrys your chart looks good too - we could be cycle buddies! Not sure about being woken or what to do - I wake you between 4-6am and take my temp straight away so it can differ between those 2 hours.....

mslk I dont think you have ov yet - if you had got another high temp today you might have got some cross hairs but think it might be on the way for you xx

weimy Your chart looks good - dips after ov are not a bad thing - lets hope they are implantation dips!

mrsa I agree - Pre Ov so lots more SWI for you!

Right I think that might be it for now - I am knackered. Have added my chart in case anyone wants a look. I do feel sicky tired and always weeing but that can be passed off as a normal day for me! I am haveing a night on the wild side with the cat, a diet caffeine free coke and the mentalist on tv. Life in the fast lane. xxx

my chart

Karbea · 21/01/2011 21:32

Hello Smile

Still nothing much happening with my chart OH is now away till Sunday eve, so i need to hope i hold off OV as long as poss.

Happy Weekend Grin

weimy · 21/01/2011 21:06

Hi mslk

I am very new so can't really say, but I am Confused. like me you weren't able to do it from the start som maybe that's why?

I feel sick when I am anxious it could be that?

who would have thought it would be complicated :(

MrsP81 · 21/01/2011 20:59

Evening all. You?ve been quite chatty today, lots of things to catch up on!

mslk, I think booking skiing and hoping for sods law sounds like an excellent plan., although I?ve had a few sods law things along this journey so far and none of them have worked yet. Grrrrr. As for your chart, I still think you have ovd but I guess we?ll have to wait and see tomorrow?s temp.

digital, your holiday sounds fab and should be very relaxing.

Haha, jaggy I think this is the first time I?ve looked at your chart, I love the message at the top! Looks like you?re gearing up for ov with that EWCM.

Yay for EWCM MrsA. Have a lovely weekend of SWIing. Smile

Welcome to Strawberry and sorry to hear about your mc. I was the same, I learnt all I know about the internal workings of my body since I had mc and it turns out I really didn?t have a clue beforehand! I had a look at your chart and I think you may have ovd on CD20.

Hi terrys, welcome back from your travels. Your chart looks lovely with that continuous rise, I have my fingers crossed for you.

I?m off to have my hair chopped off tomorrow, been thinking about it for a while now but having been a bit down in the dumps this week I thought I?d take the plunge and have a new look.
