Aiming for August 2012 BFP!!

winkle !!!! thinking it may be wrong to be happy someone else has dtd good on ya!

Excellent winkle! Glad you managed it :-)

And that's rather exciting qazxc. Very early too! Keep us posted.

just poking my head round the door to say wohoo qazxc!

You're in exactly the position I was in very recently. Very faint line, DP didn't believe it!

I was using the pregnancy test which came with the OV sticks. I was going to wait till the next morning but my friend came round with an early response test, did that and the line was clear!

So, if waiting till tomorrow is doing your head in, and it wasn't an early response test you did, get out there and get an early response test!

Have cracked and done a pregnancy test. Very very very very faint second line. DP not convinced. Made him POAS to show that if it's neg there is absolutely no line, and have tried to explain my period isn't due til the 18th but he is still saying no. Am hoping that testing tomorrow morning will bring confirmation. I don't think he'll believe me til i can do the unambiguous digital clear blue test.

Scrap that we've dtd

Feeling really bad about going on on thurs night now cause we were supposed to dtd! Haven't dtd since tues :(

Tried to dtd earlier with hubs but he couldn't finish! Argh

I have pains. Def Ov today.

Hello ladies. How are you all?
Seems like there are a few testers amongst us next week. Fx for us all. I've just purchased my superdrug tests in anticipation. Let's see how long I can hold out! Will prob crack on Monday as have a day off work to recover after the Hyde Park olympics party.
I don't feel at all preggo so not hopeful. I took epo for the first time this month and it seemed to make me have no cm at all. I stopped taking it when I ov'd (I'm temping so I know when I ov) and then about a week later I got a few days with lots of cm. Very odd. Not sure whether I'll bother with epo next month. What do others think?
Congrats to babyjames - good work!!
Have a good weekend all. :-)

I'm not that special yet

I lick my slide, damned if I'm putting cm on it am hoping that's correct usage of boak

Ha ha, When...I really hope for more than one reason it doesn't take you that long!!

Give me another year of this ttc malarkey and I think I could become one of those very special people

I think it would take a special kind of person to investigate their CM under a microscope!

Sorry worried have a and then get ready for next month

Ooh thanks for the pics. If I don't manage to get knocked up in a few months I might give it a go. Don't think I'll try looking at my cm though.

Just discovered your cm makes the same patterns. Eeeewww I am NOT going to examine cm that closely.

this kinda thing

whenshe yeah, looking for ferning. You lick a mini microscope slide, wait for it to dry, and look at it through a mini microscope (size of lipstick). If you are fertile/Ovulating the pattern it makes becomes more branchy (is that a word) like a fern.
Basically fertile =pretty pattern, Non fertile = no pattern.

There is a nack to it, in that to see the ferning you need to look around the edges rather than straight down the microscope.
The good thing is you can do it as often as you like (as long as you haven't just brushed your teeth or had a drink)

have just spotted some ferning so of to check pics to see where I am

worried sorry about af

frustrated what's all this about saliva and ov, are you checking for fearning (can't spell sorry) patterns. How do you do that? I am fascinated

Sorry she got you worried :(

And sorry for AF, worried. :-/

Still BFN and no AF here...CD27, with last cycle 26 and first 28 days. So a bit in limbo.

Thought I'd lured AF by DTD this morning as a tiny bit of spitting and cramps after. But no!

Sunshine I say morning but it'll be more like afternoon as I'm still in bed

Morning. it is just, but still in dressing gown as are dds and CBA to get dressed yet as haven't decided what to do today yet and dd2 wouldn't go to sleep last night still managed to jump DH dtd

Just catching up on here, since I've been avoiding due to long and painfully depressing COD. But Ov is due today, but nothing on saliva watch yet.

Sorry AF got you worried :( I get the dizzy/light headed and nausea post Ov too. Have no idea why, maybe it is the hormones, but doesn't help when symptom spotting. which I do continuously in 2ww

Plan for this month is to shag jump DH dtd eod or more if possible due to having to have tests we couldnt start as early as we did last month, and then ran out of energy which is a good thing. We have until the 17th when I go away, also means I can't POAS too stupidly early this cycle and will have to wait at least until 10dpo. which for me will be a nightmare but it will be a good distraction if I do t cave and take tests with me
