Hoping for a positive in October!

hi littlespecialk, i am such an impatient person!! i know it'll be pointless but i still want to!! managed to do 3 tests last month even though it was pretty obvious i hadn't ovulated! am trying to convince myself i haven't gone completely mad!! everyone keeps asking if we're having another blah blah... and i just wish people wouldn't so you don't have to think up another excuse. anyway babydust to us!!

hey rubyroo. sounds like you are just a day or two ahead of me. i try to hang on as long as poss because result would be unreliable now anyway. sucks waiting though doesn't it?

is everyone watching the football? or bding? anyone in here? still want some advice to test or not to test!!

muminthemaking,

welcome to the october thread, theres a handy acronym list at the top of the page, but af is auntie flow.

was also a preseed virgin until last month, and we loved it!!!!!!!!

af// auntie flo..period

Hello. I'm new to all this, a bit about me.... I have been TTC for 9 months, tried preseed last month for first time (DH loved it and will def use again!), I'm on DC27 and got a BFN this morning so am joining the October thread!

Please can someone tell me what AF stands for (I know it refers to a period but can't figure out what the letters stand for, this has been bugging me for a while!)

Good luck and baby dust to you all and here's to a poitive October

hi LittlespecialK i got toni weschlers book taking charge of your fertility out of the library and its really comprehensive i feel like i've grown a new part of my brain since reading it! it goes all through charting and checking cm but also has a section of questions and answers at the end.

Natty and Thomas....congrats on the bpf. Im delighted for you. Looks like you have started something as andi has just got one on the september thread .

I havent been about for a day or two, but great news Coggy with your appointment, glad it went well for you.Enjoy all the booze over the festive season

Hi to mrsmcjnr, dm2b, natty, and everyone else on this tread.

Welcome to littlespecialk.. you will soon get the hang of the speak on here, everyone is a great support to eachother.

As for myself, I dont know where i am today. Im on CD11 following the miscarriage, and got a positive ovulation test stick this am. Then read the leaflet and it said that if you had recently been pregnant then the results could be affected. I dont know what to think, but Im going to go for it now and bd every night until cd16. I know they say to bd alternate days, but we bd daily last month and got the bfp. So if it worked once it should work again.......hopefully

babydust to all

omg OMG OMG andi0411 CONGRATULATIONS well done chick!

hi to all have just got dd into bed and time to read all todays news! im cd23 today my temps went back up this morning so think i did have an implantation dip yesterday, i googled it and no, it means nothing necessarily. also had my blood tests yesterday and was so stressed i bumped my car! am trying to calm down shouldn't really test till mon but don't think i've got the will power to make it til then and not go out and buy a first response etc.. what do you think should i wait? i know i'll get upset if its bfn so maybe better to wait til it would be definite?

Mrs MCJnr I found this link on taking B6 that I thought could be useful they seem to recommend higher dose CD1 - OV and lower (if any dose after)

I get vitamins on Healthspan and they offer x2 different strengths and also high strength EPO.
Hope this helps :0)

all sounds very icky to me but will start a knicker checking programme and have a look through other threads to discover more of the mysteries of mucus.

Aaah, LittlespecialK, you DO have much to learn Unfortunately I am not the one to teach you as this stuff is all far too advanced for me! However, there are many knowledgable ladies on here who can tell you what to take at which stage in your cycle, what kind of cm to look for and much, much more! Good luck!

it's true that you learn something every day... however wierd. how does one monitor mucus levels then? are we talking discharge here?

Also supposed to make the CM easier for the sperm to travel through.

cm is cervical mucus and cough mixture is supposedly said to help produce it..i will be putting it to the test this month!

oh and welcome to the thread!

Hello peeps
Am new to this. I think I am on CD21 (too scatty to know for sure) so it will be Oct by the time I get a +/- so am guessing this is right thread for me. 2 questions (sorry to be a bore) - what is CM? and why are you all knocking back cough mixture? Have clearly missed a trick there!

Sorry to hear a few of you have joined us

CD1 is the first day of your AF that is a full on bleed not spotting.

HTH
