Afternoon ladies

MrsE I got nominated to so shocked and thank you to who ever did it.

Spinning how annoying you still don't know if you ovulated!

Dozy sorry af arrived but glad your not in limbo

toots Sorry your not well hopefully it doesn't last long

Had a really lazy day off today with dp chilling under duvet on sofa lol

AF is still weird so much lighter than normal ah well

Aprilray · 06/11/2014 16:36

Sorry that AF has arrived Dozy but good news that you are out of limbo. I was slightly concerned about a short luteal phase before and read that anything between 10-16 days is fine.

Genni, I did! My AF like cramps and lower back pain have returned though and have that feeling like when AF starts- scared to go to the loo!

It's a pain isn't it.

Worked out my luteal phase is around 11/12 days according to this month and last month from using opks. Hope that's long enough. But spotting starting from 7dpo does worry me so will see what docs say. Onwards and upwards

mrschatty · 06/11/2014 16:27

Dozygirl I'm waiting to see if I'm in same boat as you- had brown spotting from 9dpo to 10dpo nothing yesterday then a small bit more today (12dpo) but had bfn today on a clear blue with fmu. I'm waiting to get out of limbo and focus on the next cycle!

Dozygirl · 06/11/2014 16:15

I'm out this month finally. Spotting turning red now. At least I'm finally out of limbo. I find that the hardest. I just want AF to come and get on with it. This has been lingering since Saturday. Good luck to the rest of pregtober. I'll be keeping an eye out for all the bfps Thanks

lucieloos · 06/11/2014 16:05

Yes I know how you feel Genni, in a way with dhs problems I kind of wish we could just get the ball rolling ourselves too and just start with the assisted treatment but then I feel I should give it at least a year of ttc naturally so we have a little way to go yet.

I got a fairly decent second line on opk today which looks like it could turn positive either tomorrow or Saturday so fingers crossed. We will prob dtd again tomorrow and a couple of times over the weekend. Hopefully I will be in the 2ww by early next week and can start the merry go round again!!

ohlordyplordy · 06/11/2014 16:03

number quite a few of us use the babymad bbt thermometer off amazon. You need 2 decimal places ideally.

twinky12 · 06/11/2014 15:54

miss yeah I was thinking the same will take not for next cycle. toots try fresh hot lemon and water.

MissMrsMummy · 06/11/2014 15:53

You could gargle with Sanderson's throat specific mixture if your throat is sore

Looks like horse wee and feels like bee stings in your throat but really helps!

Maybe check with chemist first but I would have thought it'd be ok as you're not swallowing it (you can swallow it though normally)

tootssw17 · 06/11/2014 15:43

Missmrs and poas stick day approaching feels less like bday but more like exam day when I clearly have not revised.
Welcome aboard the bus those who joined!

Cedes - bfp dance !

Well turned out my fainting was start of a nasty virus- and for the first time as we are ttc no night nurse. Or lemsip. Just olbas paracetamol and lemon and ginger tea. Am a sorry state as given temperature and coughing and no sleep I probs will not implant so should just take the proper drugs!

Any other cold or chest infection remedies? Lovely pharmacist gave me a salt water spray to ease congestion and let me take my inlahers for asthma 6 times a day but still choking and pathetic! She totally understood ttc and being too worried to use the strong stuff- as embarrassed as I was telling someone in rl what we are planning.

MissMrsMummy · 06/11/2014 15:34

twinky just thinking about it, if today's line was stronger than yest then I'd say your ov day would today so you'll be 1dpo tomorrow

gennibugs · 06/11/2014 15:33

Afternoon all.

Welcome to chatty and number!

april those temps sound fab. Keeling everything crossed for you - didn't you start the bus as well?!

spinning any sign of a positive opk? Though it souns like maybe you ov'd. Good thing you were DtD!

lucie you sound like me this cycle - my hearts just not in it. I still haven't ov'd yet so there is still time for me to pull myself together but I'm tired of ttc! Think we might have a break next month if no luck this cycle and just get the ball rolling in January again. Even though I hate the thought of wasting a month.

twinky12 · 06/11/2014 15:27

miss thanks Smile and yes i feel excited when ov day is here 2

MissMrsMummy · 06/11/2014 15:27

number3 I just got a cheap one on Amazon and it's working well for me

MissMrsMummy · 06/11/2014 15:25

Ps anyone else feel really excited on their ov day like its a birthday?! I'm so happy when it finally happens that it want to wear a badge and tell everyone!!

MissMrsMummy · 06/11/2014 15:24

Hello twinky yes if you ov'd yesterday then you are 1dpo today

MissMrsMummy · 06/11/2014 15:22

Sounds like there a few potential bfps lined up for the next few days! Fx girls!

I'm annoyed we haven't DTD enough. Once last week (way too early)

Then nothing all week (as not even a hint of a line on opk) then got clear line yest (so DTD last night) and very strong line today. Will try again tonight but DH working late...

How lovely to have been nominated MrsExtra!

Where is ceds we need an update and a pic of bfp!

twinky12 · 06/11/2014 15:16

miss so I'm PO already? How didn't I know that already lol 10 month later.

Number3cometome · 06/11/2014 15:11

Question - I'm new to tracking OV - what thermometer would you suggest? I don't have much CM at all (sorry TMI) and struggle with that, but then that could purely be my lack of OV?
Thanks for the warm welcome ladies x

MissMrsMummy · 06/11/2014 15:10

Dozy don't count the spotting - AF starts on the first day if fresh blood.

So LP is from 1dpo to last day before AF.

Hope that helps!

twinky12 · 06/11/2014 15:02

ceds congrats on your bfp Smile. Just checking in CD 14 ov yesterday poas and its saying still ov today red line strongest ive ever had yet. Po countdown starts tomorrow. And hi to the new ppl who joined the thread.
