Well the witch has caught up with me at last. So I have decided its time to start a new thread as I think our christmas reindeer need a rest.
So step aboard ladies and join me for a hunt for the golden egg.

There is a woman I work with who didn't know until she went into labour.

Pop that chart looks really good (and a bit triphasic!!)

Pipbin · 28/06/2012 13:02

Only a tiny bit of spotting. I'm hoping it's an implantation bleed.

Yep conceive plus is a fertility lubricant that you insert 10- 15 mins before ahemBlush! harpie i imagine this is just the start of a lifetime of worrying but i agree some people don't have any symptoms... There is a tv programme all about women who have no idea they are pregnant until they go into labour!

Crazytictac · 28/06/2012 09:23

harpie bless you. Some women just don't get any symptoms other than a nice little bump a few months down the line. I do remember how anxious I was so really feel for you. Not sure if this is sensible to suggest, but there is the option of an early private scan funds permitting.

Stay on the thread as long as you like, it's nice to have you!

Hope lime and wiggy are getting on ok too.

Leftwingharpie · 28/06/2012 07:56

Physically I'm fine, but mentally I'm a bit of a mess! Grin

I'm terrified of mc and going back to square one. Worried my BBT has dropped a bit in the last few days. Worried I've got no symptoms. Another six and a bit weeks till I can get any meaningful reassurance. Worried I ought to have left the thread but desperate to see everyone else get their BFPs!

blackcatsdancing · 28/06/2012 07:49

p.s pipbin chart looks promising

blackcatsdancing · 28/06/2012 07:48

is conceive plus the same as pre-seed then? a fertility friendly lubricant?

Crazytictac · 28/06/2012 07:41

Howdie, still here too.

No AF yet so 15 DPO. I'm sure I had a long luteal phase last month so suspect this is going to be the same. Im pretty I ovulated as fertility monitor is supposed to be pretty accurate. Gah.

How are you feeling leftwing?

pipbin I don't know how you do your running. I'm always knackered even after full night sleep.

Hello to all the other ladies

Leftwingharpie · 28/06/2012 07:38

Well it's as good as it can look.

Pipbin · 28/06/2012 07:18

Well, temp right back up this morning. Tiny bit of spotting but not much.
Chart here: www.fertilityfriend.com/home/Pipbin

Rach. I used conceive plus for the first time this month. I bought the pre loaded applicator rather than the tube.
I never normally use stuff like that but it seemed ok. I guess we'll have to wait until Sunday to see if it made any difference.

Leftwingharpie · 28/06/2012 07:00

Morning Pipbin and Rachstrawberry! Did you temp this morning Pipbin? Any more spotting?

Rachstrawberry · 28/06/2012 00:59

Still here! Im crossing my fingers and toes that AF stays away for you... Have just ordered conceive plus has anyone heard much about it?

Pipbin · 27/06/2012 22:45

Where have you all gone Easter ladies?

OP posts:
Pipbin · 27/06/2012 17:29

I get the feeling that AF is on her way.
More spotting after a bowel movement. This time it had a bit of red in it
I feel like she's coming.

Leftwingharpie · 27/06/2012 08:02

Pipbin we won't know until tomorrow. My bbt plummeted at 9dpo and then shot up again the next day.

blackcatsdancing · 27/06/2012 07:54

hmm don't know pipbin. i chart but am not an expert. i know one temp alone is said to mean nothing so maybe try not to read too much into it? if its early for AF to start tomorrow then i'd say it looks like implantation dip but could also be nothing.

lastbox doctor in Bombay over the internet?? i cant tell you how dodgy that sounds but i do know that doctors often comment on women's questions in some forums in the US so might be ok. you could start your own thread and see if anyone from MN can answer?

Crazytictac · 27/06/2012 07:36

I'm 14 DPO today pipbin. Hope one of the knowledgeable charters cans comment on your chart.

How random about the doctor in Bombay lbot. :) What would we do without the Internet?!

Pipbin · 27/06/2012 07:22

Well 10dpo here now. Had spotting during my run and a big drop in temp today, which is either an implantation dip or AF on her way.
What do you think?

lastboxoftampons · 26/06/2012 21:08

Oh, Tictac :( I'm sorry.

Blackcats - you want me to actually cite a real true and accurate internet source for my ifno Wink Actually, I found it while reading through some mumsnet threads when I searched Low LH. I think the big concern with the ratio is if your LH is greater than your FSH, which is an indicator or PCOS. If it's less than FSH, maybe they consider it normal whatever it is? I also found this website where you can plug in all of your info, include hormone test results, past pregnancies, pelvic surgeries, etc and this doctor in Bombay (!) gets back to you with his take on your fertility. It says he'll answer within two days, but he got back to me within a half hour. Who knows how legit it is, but he said my LH is fine but I should have HSG done and that time is at a premium for me! I'm guessing that's down to my age. No pressure, then...!

Treats - I have an appointment for a smear, which I couldn't do last month because I stupidly scheduled it for when my AF was likely to start. So I figure I will corner her on the spotting discussion front and push her for a scan to check for fibroids. Considering a private consultation. Hope you have a lovely holiday. Heading anywhere nice?

Rach :( Stay here. Unless we're all too miserable for you! Wink We're a sorry lot these days!

Pipbin · 26/06/2012 20:27

Oh Tictac, that's bloody annoying. I'm 9dpo here, how about you? Not over until AF arrives!

OP posts:
Crazytictac · 26/06/2012 20:23

Ps sending squirrel nice, strong, fertilisation and implantation vibes

Crazytictac · 26/06/2012 20:22

And following from my "me, me, me" post Blush I hope you all are ok.

Bet you can't wait for Sat treats, bet it will be lovely just to escape this weather

lbot I fully agree with your post the other day. Hope your mum is ok too.

blackcats ditto regarding the big O if you are hell bent on achieving it

pipbin hope the 2ww is not driving you nuts

Waves to silent and all the other ladies

Crazytictac · 26/06/2012 20:17

Hi ladies

I'm out too :(. Just waiting for AF to rear her ugly head. Bit annoyed though as I got a blurry second line on an Internet cheapie but it lasted for about 10 seconds literally. I tested again a lot more and wasted my good first response test and absolutely nothing. Arse, arse, arse.

Pipbin · 26/06/2012 19:52

Oh Rach sorry to hear that. Just hang around here still though. Easter is a long time. I think even with today as CD1 it would still count as Easter.
