I had another high today so am almost sure I oved around day 12/13 it's quite strange but around then I also had a slight 'twang' a crampy feeling that was very fleeting and now wonder if that was connected. I didn't write it on my chart as I thought nothing of it at the time.
I'm almost positive that it's not my month (even takng into account what you said piffle) as we only Bded on day 9! I'm not sure my DH has 'super sperm' I have to nag him not to frazzle it with the laptop!

Piffle · 09/04/2006 10:32

in fahrenheit coverline 97.7 (aritifally high I think btw)

cd21 97.95
cd22 97.95
cd23 97.95
cd24 98.04

Hi I got a 3rd high today but had quite a lot of CM yesterday. Will maybe try to get DH at it again as I'm away for four days from Mon!

Piffle · 08/04/2006 10:55

mines taken a huge jump this am. 4/10ths
Hmmm

fresco · 07/04/2006 12:47

hi there

cd20 for me and temp just rised above line. looks like ov is late for me, or mayb cos its my first cycle since c-section. dont know.well, woke this am,cheked the time at 2am andforced dh into sex so beded this morning and funny enough i had some really pinching/burning pains last evening. but, dont want to raise my hopes and not expect miracles just yet. its only the first month ttc.wonder though,if i should have sex though tomoro too and mayb sun.just this morning may not be enough.i dont know

Piffle · 07/04/2006 11:56

Still up thx honey. Not very far over my coverline, pretty static, as I@ve not temped luteal phase before I do not know whats normal
I sure have sore (.)(.) today but I often get them anyway, I also have spots all over ym face, which is unusual.
But am not reading anything it to it no sirree!!

trace2 · 07/04/2006 10:42

Piffle hows your temp??

OP posts:
Piffle · 07/04/2006 10:29

No shoes as yet, I am going to go shopping this w/e to find some.
could be embarrasing as I am yet to have my legs waxed Blush

peachygirl · 07/04/2006 09:42

Maybe Piffle, you have made me smile Smile I don't really know, we have had a couple of bds but I was looking to it all happening today/ tomorrow and DH has definatly said lets start next month. We shall see. I'm away at a conf next week for 4 days and then to my parents so lots to take my mind off it all Af will be due as I go back to work after the easter hols

Did you finally choose some shoes?? I saw your thread yesterday when I was lurking about.

Piffle · 07/04/2006 09:31

peachy, its always people like you who say tha, that get pg!!!
Look at dEbbsy, two yrs of ttc, persona, timing everything, then one month her DH do it once after he comes back from being away-she is not really into it, gets upa gain straight away to make coffee
And bang stonking BFP.
It defies belief sometimes Grin
Makes you a little fatalistic too huh?

naditude · 07/04/2006 08:32

My temp dipped today so AF must be due, just in time for me going away for the weekend too! How kind of her! Oh well my first month of clomid didn't work. I'll keep temping!! Sad

peachygirl · 07/04/2006 08:19

My rise is still here so that looks like it for me! Probably not my month then. I am suspecting this may be beacause I am feeling coldy and (bit embarrassing) I fell down the stairs yesterday carrying a too big box of washing, so took several painkillers but looking at my cycle which has slowly lengthend from 24-28 days. It may be still part of everything falling into place. As I now will have 14 days to the end of my cycle (on day 14 now) and AF will be due on day 28 the 18th April I did have quite alot of clear CM too...oh well maybe for the best DH wasn't really into it all.

Piffle · 06/04/2006 20:31

I'm on cd 23 - usual 27-32 day cycle temps are 2/10ths above the coverline, although suspect coverline is artificially high due to disrupted pre ov temp taking due to dd being ill and in hospital - I'm 6dpo. Not a symptom to speak of, not that I'm watching Wink

peachygirl · 06/04/2006 08:18

Hi
I had a rise today from 36.1-36.3 but for me it's only day 14 and I'm usually oving around days 15/16/17. Am feeling a bit heady/ nosy /throaty so it could be that
Somehow I don't think this is going to be my month as DH is also feeling a bit this way.

trace2 · 04/04/2006 08:42

hi all i will stop temping now until day 7. good luck all , but i will pop on, to see how you all go

OP posts:
fresco · 04/04/2006 07:08

hi
sorry trace about all that disappointment.it can be very obsessive, i can recall with dd2.although at the time iwas b/feeding, hence couldnt get pg yet.but when you do charting and all that lot and dont get pg, i personnally put it down to maybe your hormon level is no high enough to produce baby? i am no expert and certainly dont know as much as you lot, but there is always a scientific reason.must be.otherwise why some women just get pg at the drop of a hat?

peachygirl · 03/04/2006 17:29

Hi all nothing to report from me... still chugging on temps pretty average.
I'm lucky that my alarm clock can hhas two alarms so firsts one goes of - stick in the thermometer, wait til it stops beeping then go back to sleep til secong alrm about 15-20 mins later!

I found the worst thing is when you have to share a room with someone and say 'ummm you might hear some funny beeping' Dh is used to it all now

naditude · 03/04/2006 17:16

Trace2 - sorry to hear that you didn't ov. Wonder what your doc's gonna do next.

I am still around! I've been reading your posts but have nothing new or exciting to add. Still getting up at the crack of dawn and sticking it in my mouth! Smile

On day 28 or something and so waiting for my temps to rise and rise! Yeah right! I can dream.

Bye for now....

trace2 · 03/04/2006 15:10

i think if were ttc, weather your temping, chating, whatever its no easyer if you are or not, it all comes down to a bfn it hurts like hell, until you get that bfp

OP posts:
trace2 · 03/04/2006 15:07

yes Meerkatsunite did say that but ,it stayed up until yestterday, so yes it got my hopes up. but af is here now and i do feel better, that it as come to be honest, because the longer it stayed away you keep thinking ,am i or arint i. i go to gyny next monday so am goina carry on temmping, ans see what happens

OP posts:
rubles · 03/04/2006 14:01

Oh dear Piffle, I was hoping that by not temping etc it might make it easier for me! The thing was that this month I did everything right but without success so I didn't understand it.

Well hopefully you won't have to find out if it is less disappointing charting or not charting because you'll get a bfp.

Piffle · 03/04/2006 13:18

It is an emotionally high investment this ttc lark. Dp has aked will I be gutted again this cycle, I somehow hoped that by charting it might make things better, mor control but who knows.
Trace do hope you're feeling ok and you get some answers from the docs soon xx It is horrible not knowing :(

rubles · 03/04/2006 13:15

Trace2, I am really sorry to hear that as I am sure that knowingly or unknowlingly you must have been getting your hopes up and the GP's call has probably dashed them. You sound quite 'flat' if that is possible via the web. I think I have read on this site (from Meerkatsunite probably) that you can show symptoms of ovulation like that without ovulation actually taking place. Really sorry..

I am taking a break from temping/ttc etc now, certainly for the month of April. But I've got to try and relax about it all as I was far too disappointed this weekend and it's only been a month.

trace2 · 03/04/2006 11:04

hi gp rang, dont look like i ovulated again, so no idea why temp rose, and done a test its bfn,(will be if i didnt ovu) and he wants to see me,

good look Piffle , i convert mine, and do babycenter one
