Yay for treatment Brooke!

Don't panic about the faint line, aren't you not late yet? Not late and without fmu I would be surprised if your line wasn't faint! :)

brooke I'm so glad they are sorting your uti, when I've had them before its only taken a day or two of antibiotics and I've felt miles better.

Try and stay positive for now, no af and a positive test can only be good signs - and all the pain you had could be just related to the infection Flowers

nightandthelight · 18/05/2015 14:42

Am in work but will see if DH can manage it tonight or tomorrow morning Carlton :)

As far as I am aware I do not get any ov symptoms (other than CM) but I know that some people know exactly when they are oving due to cramps etc. Back ache could be for so many reasons! If in doubt dtd though :)

Yay night and right on target too with your sneaky dtd this morning! Are you at work of can you get another session in today/tonight?

Can I just ask if anyone gets any ovulation symptoms? Is that even a thing?! Is here anything I can be looking out for to see when I ovulate without temping/opking? Only slightly worried because I have backache today and after my dtd fail last night I hope it's not ovulation related! Ovia's predicting my most fertile day as Friday

Brooke113 · 18/05/2015 14:34

Yay for Ewcm night hehe

Sorry haven't caught up today yet, just a quick check in to say I have got a uti and they've put me on.antibiotics. Did another test about an hour ago, so I know it wasn't fmu, but it was so faint still :( shouldn't it get darker? God I hate this...

nightandthelight · 18/05/2015 14:27

For the first time since starting ttc I have EWCM!

It was a close run thing merry! I also want to dtd tomorrow morning as I think that will be the day I ov so want some sperm in situ :)

Sounds like you have a plan in place! Very impressive Grin

Miss has it started to sink in yet? Hope you're doing ok.

Sorry AF got you mum and *wish. Onwards and upwards to the next cycle.

Night I am in awe of you dtd in the morning. I have told DH that his services will be required two mornings this cycle.

Carlton I hope you get to dtd tonight. I know how difficult it can be with poorly toddlers around but quietly quietly is the way to go.

Brooke it's a good sign that you're feeling better this morning and no AF.

FF tells me I'll be ovulating on Friday. We dtd last night and the plan is to do it everyday from tomorrow up to Saturday morning and will get an extra go in on Friday morning too.

TeenieDeenie · 18/05/2015 11:00

Brooke I'm sorry that you've had so much worry over the weekend. Good to hear you had a better sleep last night tho and let us know what the GP comes back with.

Pulpi Sorry I can't help, my cycles have been all over the place since my mmc. It does sound like stress and illness may have played a part tho.

CD34 of 37 day cycle for me. I honestly feel as though AF is about to start tho, feeling very heavy, achy and a bit sicky since I woke up. If no AF by Friday morning I will poas, bought some FRERs at the weekend just for the occasion. Grin Stay away wicked witch!!!!

pulpi · 18/05/2015 10:34

Seeking some advice. But first, the long-winded preamble:

So, since January my period has been a little odd. Well, December maybe. I was regular 28-30 days, then all of a sudden December was 25, January was 35 (!) and every since it's been 25-26 day cycles. Granted, there's been a fair bit of stress (finishing the PhD, new job, AWFUL guests that tried to steal off of us but as they're family we're stuck seeing them every bloody holiday), and the DH's sperm was knocked for six by a miserable fever and chickenpox arriving in a rather delicate area, but I'm starting to worry a bit. We're both taking the Pregnacare conception support this month, so I'm hoping that has a positive effect.

A circuitous route of getting to the question, which is: has anyone else noticed a change in their cycles since they started trying?

pulpi · 18/05/2015 09:09

Sorry about AF's arrival, brooke. Hope you're feeling better soon!

TeenieDeenie · 18/05/2015 09:05

Ahh, here you all are!!!! I couldn't find this on my phone and even just created a second bus so that someone would point me in the right direction lol! OK off to catch up with the weekends chat. Smile

nightandthelight · 18/05/2015 08:31

I know that feeling well Carlton! Had a bit of a panic as it didn't look as though DH would be up to dtd this morning but he finally rised to the occasion Grin fx you get your sperm this evening!

Good luck today Brooke, fx your tests are all ok Flowers

OP posts:
Carltonlives · 18/05/2015 08:27

Glad you're feeling better brooke. No af though? That's got to be a good sign. Not having symptoms doesn't mean anything, lots of women don't know they are pregnant for weeks or months remember xx

Carltonlives · 18/05/2015 08:25

I hope so!! It will probably be at 7pm and deadly silent but I don't care about that, I just want the SPERMZ Grin Grin

Brooke113 · 18/05/2015 08:25

Sorry Af has reared her ugly face mum and wish

I slept alot better last night thankfully :) going to pop a sample into my gp's later and they'll dip it and call me with results later today. I've still got cramps. Not as bad as they were though, but pregnancy "symptoms" have gone today, no more achey sore boobs which is worrying me. I keep prodding them to see if they're still tender Blush and nothing this morning Sad

nightandthelight · 18/05/2015 08:18

So sorry for AF wish Flowers

Sorry to hear that Carlton, will you be able to get it on tonight?

OP posts:
Carltonlives · 18/05/2015 08:17

How are you brooke?

Carltonlives · 18/05/2015 08:16

AF SUCKS mum and wish! Eat chocolate pronto Flowers

Unfortunately my arse is nowhere near a pillow night! The toddler woke up at 9pm teething last night and refused to go back into her own room so we couldn't dtd last night or this morning Sad
Hopefully missing a couple days won't make too much difference as I don't think I'm ovulating yet

pulpi · 18/05/2015 07:31

Oh right, good point wish! The stats:

33, ttc #1, cycle #6, BFP due June 6.

wishiwaspregnant · 18/05/2015 07:26

Ooh for the stats>>
Cycle #6 BFP due 19th June

pulpi · 18/05/2015 07:24

AF finally gone, so now we're ttc-ing again. Cycle 6. I should be on the June bus, but thought I'd hang out here a while longer...

wishiwaspregnant · 18/05/2015 07:23

AF here too! Followed by big temp dip. Although that is gutting it's good to see that temping is working for me. My chart looks good. Short luteal phase though of only 11 days if FF is correct. Therefore I'm going to give the opk a try this cycle and vitamin B6 to try to extend that luteal phase. Onwards to cycle number 6! Common June! Let's get some more BFP!!! GrinGrinGrin

nightandthelight · 18/05/2015 07:11

Sorry to hear that AF arrived mum, however cycle 4 is where it's at!

Go Carlton! TTC is a messy business unfortunately.

Had a fixed smiley this morning so bum is on pillow Grin
