Charters Anonymous Volume 6. Charting and shagging our way to victory!

Bossy,(takes deep breath) I like BE, Lola, Birki's, easy yo, kipling, and Butler and Wilson! I watch for a bit every day

Karbea I'm not allowed any pups for a few years now :( I love puppies, but the devil pup is hard work TBH

I shall now also out myself as a QVC buyer watcher weimy what do you get?

morning all

temp up today, gave myself some crosshairs so i could play with temp overlay. how sad am i

hope you all have a nice Friday. :)

Weimy surely buying puppies is worse the qvc???

Totally agree with having things to look forward to, with me it is puppies and horse riding and if i'm bad things from qvc

Thanks bossy :-)
Things do improve and having things to look forward to helps.

Oh lou that's awful, my mum was very poorly a while ago and we thought we were going to lose her, I started grieving for her even though she was still here and is still here now luckily, I felt horrendous at the thought of it so to actually lose a parent it must be devastating. Hopefully the weekend away will help too, a distraction and change of scene even if just for a little while.

Hi bossy

I hope things start to look up for you soon, I had a MC and lost my dad tragically (super healthy man and only in 50's) 3 weeks later. I remember thinking 'why me?' as everything else after that seemed to also go wrong!
Luckily things are improving, Im also a fan of the caramel shorties :-) but this morning forced myself to go for a swim (after being asked in M&S if I worked there- I live in black at the min!!) and felt so much better for it, even a walk round the park seems to lift me abit at the minute.

I think it's just temporary, just so frustrating waiting for appointments, you just worry in the meantime and feel quite helpless and heavy iyswim. I think a good cry is in order though not right now, coping at the mo and stepped away from the biscuits! Just feel a bit overwhelmed with it all going on at once, need to maintain a bit of perspective, all I can do is wait. Just so tired yawn yawn...

bossy :( I'm sorry things are so rubbish at the moment. Can you go to the Drs to see if there is anyone you can talk to about how you feel? I have suffered from depression and know that that helped me a lot. xx

Hi lou! Hope you have a lovely successful weekend!

Ive eaten ALMOST a full packet of fox's caramel shortcake biscuits it's a stressful time what with my dodgy spotting and not seeing gyn till june, dd finally getting a referral but not for another 6 weeks (plenty of time to be poorly between now and then) and FIL been diagnosed with a serious illness and he lives on his own so not ideal. I feel quite rubbish and depressed at the mo and dd knows it and is being horrid - lots of shouting and screaming and lashing out.

where's the last 2 biscuits...

Afternoon everyone,
Looking forward to a weekend of SWI, just booked a couple of nights away in a lovely hotel with mood lighting (covers up the cellulite!!!)
Taken to testing with ov. sticks twice daily just in case I miss the peak days lol fingers crossed for some positives on the pg tests this/ next month ladies!!

Lou

Yay for well timed swi jaggy!

cd21 going to try not to temp for the rest of the 2ww.

he's a SAHD so just had to accost him....:)

Haha!! Just need to wait for you husband to get home!!!

I even had a hot sweat earlier... Impending flu I reckon!

mission accomplished

karbea bodies are so cruel with the strange feelings and symptoms and weirdness all the time! :(

feeling much more positive now. got home from work and did ov stick. extremely positive looking dark line and got some EWCM too. trying to persuade DS to have a wee afternoon nap now... he's just discovered chocolate though so might be a bit optimistic...

Umm yep hard to say if you have based on last months chart

I now feel pretty sick, so reckon body is playing silly buggers with me

don't give up jaggy my weird chart last month finally sorted itself out when I got a rise later than I expected.

karbea, I have chart envy!

I got crosshairs today. If you look at my chart and look at the end of last months you see all the spotting I had, some was red some was brown so my CD1 may not be accurate. So although FF has ov at CD8 it may actually be CD12. Hope that makes sense. However I had some blood stained cm yesterday which makes me too early for implantation but thought maybe it could be ovulation but no real shift in temp today so think it's just part of my problems that hopefully the gyn will get to the bottom of. I am actually thinking I may get more ewcm later on to confuse ff like last month so maybe I haven't ovulated yet. Or maybe I am not ovulating at all I had the metallic taste in my mouth this morning that I get after ovulation so the blood stained cm seemed to point in that direction but no thermal shift.

Yep AF started yesterday. Feeling like shit today and ready to punch someone!

CD17 newgold , it's been so consistent before so I am just a bit confised!

newgolddreaam I don't think it means anything it's just the increase to show you've ov'd, I've noticed mine go down before af, but I don't think the fact mine is a straight up line this month means anything at all, I've seen other peoples who are up and down and are pregnant x

Mornign everyone!

Karbea - your chart is very impressive, wish my temps were going up like that!

Ifatfirst - sorry AF showed and you feel so emotionally exhausting, I think we all can identify with that.

jaggy - what CD are you on?

imps - I get EWCM after ov to, plus watery, I hope it doesnt mean Im not ovualting as I think I am based on my temps.

weimy - I take it theres been a lot of swi then lol.

auntied - has AF showed at all?

Me Im on CD20, only 6 DPO and going mad already. What do you all think of this chart of mine,

www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3053f2

I know the temps show a clear rise indicating ovulation but post ov temps arent that high imo - do you think this matters? I guess what I mean is do post ov temps indicate whether you have been successful or not or wont I be able to tell until either they drop indicating AF is coming or I get a BFP (hoping for that option obviously!)

ok temps still rising, do you think I actually might be getting sick?

Morning everyone btw!

still not got normal temp rise :(

i guess it's no ovulation or late ovulation for me.

morning everyone.
