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

jaggy sorry AF got you...
auntied SOOOO glad you got your results and they came back as normal. Mummy nature can be a bit cruel, but I'm sure your time will come, as I'm sure it will for all of us. Just got to keep trying....

So, somehow didn't post my second post yesterday, which was all about my implantation dip (twizzle I've told myself I'm up the duff to stay relax in my 2WW)...what do you think.....

essence remember that load of women don't get symptoms in the 2WW....talk of which, mrsA if you're still stalking, come and say hello. Would be nice to know how you're getting on....

Jaggy you are allowed to be grumpy, especially here xxx

thanks ladies. sorry to be a grump.

that's sort of good news that your results are all fine auntie, hope you're thoroughly up the duff soon. :)

Good news auntied xx

Sorry Jaggy :(

Hurray!!! Got my results.

All normal and nothing to worry about.

So why can't I bloody well get up the duff?!!!

jaggy but you are not alone at least, we all know how you feel.

essence got no symptoms either which is odd after the zillions of symptoms last month but it's an odd cycle. ewcm with red streaks, tried a tampon for a couple of hours the last couple of days and nothing to report, temp is still up and haven't had the telltale sore boobs yet so could be delayed ov or just anovulatory afterall, if I wasn't charting I would think I was 2 days late so just as well I am and know better otherwise I would be well and truly round the twist! Though don't blame af for being hesitant as once she arrives I have to book the cervix pinching HSG which has to be within the first 10 days of the cycle.

No good news anywhere...about anything????!!!!

Sorry jaggy :(

hope not!

have had a bit of a greet, sleep deprivation + hormones+disappointment = not a good combination. :)

feel a bit better i think. just need a kip now, doorbell woke DS up from his nap though and loud workmen next door so nae chance!

Oh Jaggy I'm sorry :(
It's just the pits isn't it?
I'm 8dpo and can't muster a single symptom today so will probably join you at the weekend!

CD1 :(

Feeling a bit pathetic and fed up now.

oh it's all so bloody frustrating!!!

arrrggggghhhhhhh! Now dotted crosshairs! EWCM with red streaks. Good job VIP membership ended the continuous green traffic light was starting to get annoying - though not for DH obviously!

Kinda spotting now so awaiting AF any minute. At least it seems i know my body quite well now as I was pretty sure it was imminent!

Thanks twizzle. I'm feeling much better now. Had another little cry on Friday, but have been feeling better from yesterday, probably just down to rest over the weekend. hope work is getting a bit easier for you...sorry for the BFN . let's hope it was just too early....

Yep, temps a bit weird. I have taken them a bit later over the weekend, but that would not explain such a big shift. And now it's down again....I wonder whether I did have some kind of virus and now it's gone?!?!?!

newgold and jaggy, really understand and sympathise with you. But it will pass. So until it does, look after no 1, eat loads of cake and watch too many guilty pleasures!

today's temp not so good. :( :(

even though it was taken a bit early, it's probably fairly accurate.

meh.

jaggy your temps are still good!!!!

Thanks twizzle

newgolden, jaggy sorry you feel so low, it's an emotional rollercoaster ttc :(, I'm thinkng of you and sending warm doggy smelly hugs.xx

Couldn't see your chart jaggy.

I'm not even finished the 2ww and am feeling decidedly fed up, must be something in the air newgold.

fairly very convinced I'm not pregnant this month, feeling a bit down about it as well. not sure why.

not even a temp to record today, i had a crap Sunday night sleep so there was no point. i hate it when you get temporary insomnia while your brain worries about getting up early for work on Monday!

here's the wonky chart anyway. www.fertilityfriend.com/jaggythistle/home

man what a whiny post, sorry!

still no results? have they done a whole study on you? hope they get the finger out soon auntie and your patience is rewarded.

hi everyone else, on phone so not got the thumb strength to try and type you all! just don't have your stamina twizzle :)

Thanks for all the good wishes since AF showed, really strange though - light flow on Saturday and yesterday and now its stopped, seems to be getting lighter every month, I wonder if this is a problem??

Positive wishes to everyone, its hit me harder this month than usual for some reason. Cant shake this feeling eyt, its usually gone by CD2.

mutter mutter

Still no results.... "maybe tomorrow".

On the plus side it would seem that I am ovulating, so maybe I will get a babywin just for being patient with these bloody tests!

My chart ...started with erratic temps which I put down to rubbish sleep so it looked anovulatory. Then with further ewcm it looked like it could be delayed ov but then poor sleep meant there wasn't a temp rise. Temp did start to rise and ff put cross hairs on even though I detected creamy rather than ewcm that day. As there was no swi at that time as I had truly had enough by then I hoped ff was wrong and that my original ewcm on cd10 was ov day. It showed ov on CD11 last month and given then fact my cycles are usually 24-25 days long it seemed to fit. Now it appears ff could be wrong but not in a good was as spotting pink cm now which makes my 5dpo crosshairs look ridiculous. Haven't had the usual 3 days of brown spotting though the spotting I detected I was looking for so had I left it to appear on its own accord I guess it could have been brown by then so maybe. So luteal phase is out the window unless cd10 was right then I could be looking at 15-16 day LP.

Wish I didn't think about it so much!

Bossy am glad your gyn appointment went well and things are moving in the right direction. It must be a huge relief to know for certain your are ov-ing and that DH tests are ok:). Am glad your staying on fred. Pinched and cervix really don't belong in the same sentence though

Hardertokidnap sorry you've been feeling low. We ve all been in situation where friends get updiffed and been devasted. I understand you feeling a little let down that she didn't share her TTC journey with you as you did with her but may be she felt squeamish about discussing it?

Auntie Doris am on your behalf unacceptably slow results!

weimy so rubbish that AF appeared after such a metoric temp rise! As your question showed we ALL worry about whether we'll be good parents and raise well rounded individuals but a wise person said to me that, that worry alone ensures we're already better than some.

scrummybumb :( to read that you were feelng low recently, hope your feeling okay now. TTC is emotionally draining, have never been as emotional as have been since i decided i wanted a baby! I noticed a big chart discrepancy between this cycle and last are you getting less sleep or waking up more, that could maybe explain temp differences.

newgold sorry about the tonsillitis and the appearance of AF

Satsuma sorry AF got you too

Chart looking good essence, am glad to hear that working and have dc can be successful, ATM I'd love to be a SAHM but it will never happen as we cannot afford it. I worry I won't be able to do everything at home and at work as well as be a mummy. Thank you for some positive input.

Wow super chart Molly fingerscrossed! 36 miles hope you can get out of bed in the morning, I know I wouldn't be able too!

After getting excited over my temp rise yesterday, it dropped back today. I poas today and BFN so despite better looking chart, am now waiting for temp drop to signal AF.

Waves to jaggy and anyone else I missed in my mammoth phone post! Apologies for errors!

Ifatfirst get in some more swi just in case

Molly,Essence, scrummy ,thanks for reasuring me!! My friend has two with a third on the way she works part time and has always said that those few days have kept her sane even tho she absolutley adores her bambini!

molly chart looks good fx!
