Hi, I'm not sure if theres already a thread for those hoping for a +ive October. I'm on the +ive Sept one but my fertile window for this month has just passed without being able to try (got to get blood sugars stable before we can try) so next chance to try will be towards end of September (32ish cycle), which means I won't be in a position to test til October. If theres already an October thread please point me in that direction, if not, here we go!

Natty and Thom- BIG FAT CONGRATS I have posted on Sept thread for you.....

Agree with Mrsmc- gory details required immediately pls...

Does anyone on here know if your temps have to stay high in order to be pg- can they drop to your cover line approaching af and you still be pg?

Looks like I'll be joining the Oct thread soon- af due tomorrow or the next few days and feeling v pre-mens

MrsMcJnr · 25/09/2006 11:03

Babymad4num3 · 25/09/2006 10:28

MrsMcJnr LOL you sound Pos!

buffythenappyslayer · 25/09/2006 10:24

im just terrified of testing!!daft i know,but i just dont want to be dissapointed again,IYKWIM!

MrsMcJnr · 25/09/2006 10:24

Hello Buffy - welcome! re being too early to test, it is probably but that would depend on when you OVd. Do you know?

How is everyone else? v quiet on here today! CD17 for me, temps all over the place, haven't got a clue what is going on (36.7 yesterday, jump from 36.1 the day before but then back down to 35.9 today so expecting the thermal shift tomorrow) but still getting positive OPKs so let's hope there is a swimming gala going on

rubles · 25/09/2006 10:21

Buffy, it sounds hopeful for you. If you really have to then I'd advise waiting until tomorrow morning's urine tho'.

rubles · 25/09/2006 10:20

Hi all.

Babymad, I saw your temps and they are very clear aren't they. I don't think you need to watch your CM after you have got the temp rise - well you can if you really want, but they aren't an indication of anything. FWIW I too get CM throughout my luteal phase, but it probably varies person to person.

CONGRATULATIONS to NattyandThomas!!!!!!

I am 3dpo now so let the waiting begin. Is anyone else the same?

buffythenappyslayer · 25/09/2006 09:58

hi all!ive been ttc since ihad mc in april.

still bf dd3 who is now 2 (i am trying to stop though as she is completely obsessed!!)

af due on friday,but i have been feeling soooo sick for the last few days,and was sick yesterday.also got extremely sore nipples!!(been putting it down to dd,but have been fine up until the last few days)

do you think its too early to test?

MrsMcJnr · 25/09/2006 09:46

Morning ladies - very exciting NattyandThomas! Let us have an update!!!

Babymad4num3 · 25/09/2006 09:45

Morning ladies!
CD18 today, temp still high also been geting EW and creamy CM, dont know what that's all about! DS gone full time school today, I'm off swimming as i cant just sit at home all day just not me!Hope everyone is fine and well!

Babymad4num3 · 25/09/2006 07:40

NattyandThomas your about two days earliy am i right? I tested with DS#2 3 days earily and i got a pos, but not with the ebay one's, i agree with Natty1806 get a "Clear Blue" or something today, let us know ASAP, I'm keeping everything crossed for you chick!

Natty1806 · 25/09/2006 07:30

Natty & Thomas - did the line come up in the time on the packet? If so then no i do not think it would be wrong maybe go and buy a more expensive one from Boots if it makes you feel more certain.

Big congrats from me,

How late are you?

NattyandThomas · 25/09/2006 05:20

omg guys,
i just got a very very faint positive.
its one of the cheap tests of ebay could it be wrong?
i feel sick im so excited.
OmG OMG OMG!

plummymummy · 24/09/2006 23:31

Hi all. Ttc and a bit ignorant about when I can conceive during my cycle. How many fertile days are there? Before my m/c in January I used to get af at around the 24th of the month. Now I get it on the 5th or thereabouts. Would I still be able to conceive over the next day or so?

RachelRose · 24/09/2006 19:26

I know what you mean rubyroo... Thats 2 people now from the NCT class with DS1 who are now pregnant. Am genuinely happy for them but just think it would be so good to be in that position too!

rubyroo · 24/09/2006 14:53

i am also seeing pregnant women everywhere and everyone i know through dd is now pregnant again am trying really hard to be happy for them and not to despair!

rubyroo · 24/09/2006 14:51

hi rachelrose i meant evening primrose oil but just too lazy to type it!! they did a pregnancy test on me on fri(day19) but it was negative but i'm hoping that it was just too early to tell (i think i ovulated on day15). it was amoxicillin they gave me and i've googled it and it says its ok to take if pregnant. am feeling better after a couple of days on that.

Babymad4num3 · 24/09/2006 13:51

36.6 is my coverline!

Babymad4num3 · 24/09/2006 13:51

Yep
CD12 36.1 36.6 7.00am
CD13 36.8 36.6 7.00am
CD14 36.8 36.6 7.00am
CD15 36.8 36.6 6.55am
CD16 36.7 36.6 7.05am
CD17 36.8 36.6 7.00am

RachelRose · 24/09/2006 13:26

Are your temps still up Babymad?

RachelRose · 24/09/2006 13:23

Sounds positive Rubyroo, fingers crossed for thursday, and that your kidney infection goes.I I had a spate of getting those and they are rotten aren't they. Can I ask what epo is?

Its CD17 for me and according to my OV tests, I've not OV'd yet - I started testing on CD11. Am not sure whether to get some more and carry on? I'm tempted to as its the first month I've used them and I may be a late OV-er. Having said that I've been having pretty regular 28 day cycles so just expected it around day 14... Its all very confusing. It would be sods law if I tested on a month when I'm not going to OV at all!!!

On top of that feel as sick as a dog today... I know its not morning sickness (sadly) as have been cleaning up after DS1 all morning. Must have a bug I guess.

Hope everyone else is having a good weekend
