english I'm here with u till the end. Nearly bought some frers last night to use at the end of oct but I chickened out.

Dozygirl · 21/10/2014 07:34

lucie that is some good dtd action. Do u opk or just temp? Could u dtd this morning to get it covered?

EnglishGirlsReturned · 21/10/2014 07:33

treacle I'm sure if you put your temp into a bbt adjuster it would probably come out even higher! Generally if you take it earlier than your usual time it's lower than it would normally be! So basically it's very exciting!

chandlers, your DH sounds remarkably similar to mine. How nice that he surprised you! I can only live in hope that mine would do that. I genuinely think if I didn't clean the house, the thought would never occur to him to do it! Lazy sod!
Good luck with your scan tomorrow!

Blueberry make sure you let us know how you get on, good luck!!

In so jealous of all of you who are far enough along to test...I won't test until 30th, by which point I'll be the only one clinging on the bus!

Dozygirl · 21/10/2014 07:32

Good luck with the scan today blue and chandlers tomorrow. Made me laugh that story chandlers sounds quite similar to my dp lol.

One more day till the poas party!

I sleep talk a lot and apparently I was talking about sex last night and that I must have sex now! I clearly must have been dreaming I've had a positive opk and wanted to dtd lol. Perhaps mn and Google us not a good thing to read before bed heehee.

lucieloos · 21/10/2014 07:26

Yay my temperature has finally gone up to 36.65 so looks like I ovulated much later than usual on cd15. Bit annoyed really as we tried so hard this month but I don't know if we caught it. We couldn't manage to dtd again last night so have done it cd6, 8, 10, 11, 12 and 13. Guess I'll just have to hope one of them sticks around. Wish we could have got last night in as well now though Sad

We are so overdue a bfp hope we get lots at the poas party tomorrow Grin

Boosk · 21/10/2014 07:23

Me too treacle but not having anything in the bathroom to pee in really helped. I must remember to put a cup in there tonight or I might miss the party. Wink

Treaclepie19 · 21/10/2014 06:56

Good luck Blueberry :)

Yay Boosk!!!
It really pained me to flush that fmu today haha.
Keep reminding myself I may only be 9dpo or 11dpo :)

Fx temping ladies, hope they are nice and high!

Chandler loved your story about your dh. Sounds like he's definitely trying to show you how well he can look after you. What a sweetie Smile

Treaclepie19 · 21/10/2014 06:48

Well I got up at like 5 am and took my temp by mistake. Went back to sleep then was restless so not sure whether to trust this but here's today's temp :)
I cant wait to test! :)

mzzzf · 21/10/2014 06:29

Bloody hell Chandlers that sounds awesome! Love a domestic surprise! Hope your scan goes well tomorrow too missus. Smile

Tempted to join the POAS party, my original calculation are out by 3-4 days so tomorrow I'll be 9-10dpo, which if it's the latter could Be picked up on a frer. Shall I be bold and try?! Arghhh!

spinningirl10 · 21/10/2014 06:23

Ah Chandler, your story of dh is so sweet, hope you enjoy the spag bol Grin

spinningirl10 · 21/10/2014 06:23

Morning Grin

Haha English I've seen that film Grin

Chandler, good luck for your scan tomorrow.

Treacle, I have an af type pain as well as well but my temp shot back up this morning. Wednesday tomorrow so we can poas!!

Somesort, hope your temp has risen and you get a darker line on a test.

ChandlersFarang · 21/10/2014 03:31

Aaah I love a POAS party! I won't be joining but I will be at the hospital for my next scan tomorrow morning, bored in the waiting room cheering you all on (quietly, obviously, I don't want to be transferred to the psychiatric ward).

Gem - welcome and good luck!!

On the earlier dinner chat, I just had to add, something bizarre has happened to my DH... For as long as I've known him he's been a lazy overgrown teenager: never cleans, shops, has only cooked for me once (in 2009), basically does as little as poss round the house (not that I do it all by the way, out of principle we got a cleaner and spend a LOT eating out! Ha). Anyway last night he rings me at work from the supermarket, and asks whether I need any groceries (?!) because he's invited our neighbours round for dinner tomorrow (??!!!) and is getting the ingredients to cook us all spag bol ("I emailed my mum earlier and got her recipe"). He then spent 2 hours cooking AND cleaned the kitchen up after himself... And if this wasn't enough, this morning he woke me up with a fresh carrot and apple juice in bed that he'd just made (and when I got up, I found he'd washed up the juicer before leaving). BlushShock

I am literally speechless. If ever there was a moment I felt DH was ready to have kids, it is today!!!!! GrinShockGrinShockGrinGrinEnvy

Dozygirl · 21/10/2014 00:29

Awww I didn't notice the new thread. Thought u were all being unusually quiet!!

katy I think it's safe to continue all normal for u activity in the 2ww but I feel worried the same as you even tho I know that. I play roller derby which is a full contact sport so can often end up slamming onto my bum. Last month I gave up playing in the 2ww but it had been futile as I wasn't upduffed so now I'm just throwing myself into it all as per usual until I get a BFP.

Sorry AF got u frolic. Good luck in pregvember.

Excited to see some bfps this week from those of u with promising signs. Really really hope its your time. I don't think I'm gonna get a BFP in October anymore as I still haven't had a +ve opk yet. Should be tomorrow if I go off previous month. Trying to test twice a day so I don't miss it.

Dp birthday on Wednesday so it would be lovely to say we conceived our child on his birthday smile fx!

Love 'the proposal' and that particular part of the film. 'To the window, to the wall'!

Good luck with the temping. Ohlordy I think it's a good sign you're still getting positives. If AF not even due yet then maybe they'll get stronger after then Halloween Grin

TerrysNo2 · 20/10/2014 23:09

somesort step away from the thermometer!! honestly its not going to do you any good.

Good luck for temps tomorrow charting ladies!! I just remembered one positive thing about getting my AF... I get to use my mooncup again (tried it for the first time last month and found it excitingly revolutionary!!) Grin

Treaclepie19 · 20/10/2014 22:54

Oh ladies it's such a tough time for you.
Some I know exactly how you're feeling.

Hope you get the rise you're after.

After convincing myself earlier that i was pregnant. I'm now sure I'm not. Having cramps like af.
Hey Ho. Night all, I hope I'm wrong and my temp goes back up tomorrow.

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 20/10/2014 22:48

Ohlordy, I get it. I really hope this one is a sticky one for you though.

I'm panicking now because my cm was streaked with a tiny bit of blood when I wiped. I KNOW it could be a number of things but yes, terrified that everything is about to go wrong again.

My temp was down this morning but not a drastic drop like last month's chemical as it was still above the coverline. I've read that oestrogen and progesterone each have the opposite effect on temperature and because they're both involved in early pregnancy, it can cause temperature fluctuations.

I've decided to take my temp for the last time tomorrow morning, as I'm hoping it'll end on a rise and if it plummets through the coverline, I know what's likely to happen and I'm prepared. It sounds mental, because I should just stop temping now, but I feel like I want to go out on a high tomorrow (if I get one!).

No more HPT tests left but I have OPKs, so I can content myself with wasting those until I buy another CB digi in a few days and hope to get a 2-3 weeks result.
