Sorry Summer, at least 2nd cycle is well underway, FW will be here before you know it!
I never noticed if side of tongue affected it!! How funny!
Jem I count DPO the same as you, thought OD was Saturday, so 5dpo today, but maybe that's wrong, seen as CDs start at 1 from 1st day?... I'll have a little research x

Sorry about AF summer - onwards and upwards to next cycle.

Cd21, 6dpo

Do you guys count ovulation day as day 1 and the following day 2?

I'm counting ovulation day 0, following day 1 etc

raddersmrs · 12/05/2016 07:59

Footprints my temp does as well! So I always put it on the right now xx

Stats this morning-
No AF! AF was due yesterday /today. No cramps, no sickness no anything!
Temp 36.53 so still up. IC BFN with FMU.
Surely it would be positive by now if I were?
Boobs fine, some tingling last night which made them itch a bit.
Feeling a bit Hmmhmmpfff big sigh.

How's everyone else?

Tee- my temp varies from different sides of the tongue! Weird.

raddersmrs · 12/05/2016 07:57

36.34 this morning tee. I'm still elevated as I tend to be below 36 for pre AF temps.
I never really do it exact same time everyday. Just when I wake up. I'm not getting into setting my alarm to take it or anything. It's going to be there or there abouts.

I want to hold out to see if AF comes but I think I will crack. Just going to hold out as long as possible. Last month I got my BFP in 3 days - 9 dpo xx

Summerblush1982 · 12/05/2016 07:56

She arrived *early I meant.

Summerblush1982 · 12/05/2016 07:55

Thanks ladies, just been catching up on all the messages above! Yep...its definitely AF!! :/( but it's ok, the quicker she's gone the quicker I can get back on it again!!! Fingers crossed for next cycle! Cd2 for me today!! She arrived already though!! But just like that, all my breast soreness has gone!! So AF was busting to get out!!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you all!! I think I need to be a lot more healthier this cycle.

Morning,
So with you there Radders, want this to happen soooo badly, just don't want to wait any longer! How are your temps looking? Mine dropped this morning, but I'm not worried about that, AF not due for 9 days yet, so even if it was early this month that's still too far in advance for pre-AF decline. Also not doing it very consistently time wise... re-took it half an hour later and it was back up. No more temping this month in LP for me.
Physics how's your temp this morning? Hope the witch stays away!
Mimi anything exciting to report?
Hope you're OK Summer x

I've woke up this morning thinking I want to just know now and I so want to be pregnant.
This two week wait is dragging!!

Summer how are you this morning? How's the spotting looking?

I'm not feeling emotional yet which is a sign I had last month. Unless I was just having a bit of a down week and was nothing to do with little bean!

physicskate · 11/05/2016 21:55

Yes I am mimi. Not expecting much...

BFN yesterday :( I caved...

Mimilicious013 · 11/05/2016 21:51

Physic, hope the temp rises tmwr and af stays farrrr away. Are you poas tmwr?

Nimisha, kiwi tmwr and fx you also catch the egg hun.

Mimilicious013 · 11/05/2016 21:45

Scared to get excited, you know in this journey the twists and turns are incredible lol. Testing only on the 16th if the old hag doesn't show

Mimilicious013 · 11/05/2016 21:43

Hope you turn hot soon and be a happy bunny, Smile it's funny how we listen to every little thing that is happening in our bodies.

Lots of cm is a good sign radders. In a week or so it will already be verdict time for us all good luck. The brown stuff has chosen to stop for now but af is due in 3-4days so can't even think of poas yet.

Summer, what eventually happened. Fx af has stayed away.

Tee4me · 11/05/2016 21:42

Exciting Mimi! Are you still planning to test on 16th??

SuchaJem · 11/05/2016 21:38

Really promising mimi hope you're next for the grads list Smile

raddersmrs · 11/05/2016 21:30

Mimi that's great news! Really good signs then ... When r u testing, can't wait! Xx

Jodders · 11/05/2016 21:25

I don't think I have ovulated yet. Haven't had a positive OPK yet. Only on CD11 think I will ovulate at the weekend.
Really sounds like implantation spotting mimi!!

Mimilicious013 · 11/05/2016 21:21

Jod ,have you already ov yet or it's on it's way. Good luck catching the egg

Good evening my friends .
Sorry my phone was playing tricks and failed to post earlier. The brown spotting has since stoppedConfused,the cramps have eased off too, so I guess for now I'm back in the rat raceGrin

Footprints, thanks for thinking of me and also for the kiwi tip. A new on top of the list item for next cycle. Fx crossed tmrw you get your dfp hun, fx!

Ohh jem, poor OH but it's the only time you can give it to them and get away with it Wink.the moodiness could easily be early pregnancy fx.

Tee - great clearblue it is! know it's only a dream but u never know.

Summer- is it AF? hope it's not. Really wanted you to get a BFP X Flowershope you are ok? Are you just spotting or def AF? Could be late implantation?

AF is due now really. Usually between 12-14 days after ov. I'll be 14dpo tomorrow.
Weird thing is the cramps have disappeared- hoping they stay away. I'm holding out until I breakConfused as I'm not 100% sure what is going on this cycle. My boobs feel absolutely fine, to my disappointment. Wish I had big boobs!! I'm really not feeling pregnant - just a bit off of food. Which could be down to AF arriving soon?

Mimi- how you doing?

Physics- my coverline is a lot lower than yours.. But everyone's will vary. That drop is nothing! So don't worry about that. Mine dipped yesterday and shot back up today.

SuchaJem · 11/05/2016 20:50

Radders with you on the test rule - would only do it with DH around too

I am soooooooo grumpy moody short tempered tonight Envy poor DH is at the sharp end of it

What's worse is this is textbook PMS for me Sad Why can't I get pregnant???

Jodders · 11/05/2016 20:48

CD 11 Star Hi all, eventful day will try to address everyone....

Radders it did go away and yes it was like an itchy feeling - I think it was from too much DTD lol! I just put cream on it after every bathroom visit.

Sucha I hope the stabby feelings are a little bean settling in!

Summer is it definitely AF? Update needed!

Physics I think your symptoms sound promising! Don't worry about the temp drop it doesn't sound like much of a drop.

Nim I did an OPK today and it's a bit lighter than yesterday's.

Sucha I don't plan to tell anyone until I'm about 6weeks. This time o would like to keep it quiet for as long as I could. Family 12 weeks and other people as I see them.

Footprints I have been been eating 2-4 Brazil nuts daily. If I don't get a BFP This month I will start on the kiwi next month.

Tee been doing the OPKS for three days now.

How are our graduates doing?

Here's today's OPK taken at 12:30.
Looks a bit lighter than yesterday's I think. I'm starting to feel a little bit frisky (good sign!) will be able to DTD tomorrow - Sunday whoop!! Let's hope I ovulate in that time!
I'm very bloated and gassyBlush today!

Tee4me · 11/05/2016 20:40

Oh Summer I hope not! Keep us updated.
Jem/Radders no real tiredness or CM my side Sad Getting lots of twinges and waves of crampy-ness down there tho, but as you say, all so wishy washy I wouldn't get excited. Only thing that'll make me feel really optimistic is if my skin starts to feel particularly hot. It was the clearest sign I had with DS, even DH agreed. Practically every month I ask him if I feel hot, and he gives me a very blunt "No!", so the day he changes his tune on that, I will be a very happy bunny!!

Jem I only ever do tests with OH with me so he will know same time as me.
I will wait until about 6/7 weeks as we are going to pay for an early scan then will tell our parents. I have a couple of friends who know we are ttc so they will prob guess. Everyone else after 12 week scan. Oh I will tell my manager and hr because they have to let you go for doctors appointments etc. My manager knows my plans anyway... We have a good relationship.

I always thought I wouldn't find out the sex but now i think we will. I actually post d on the pregnancy thread about it a while back and it swayed me otherwise.

Jem I have such similar symptoms. Tired, although not as bad tonight actually. Had some tummy cramps today, lots of cm but nothing I would say screams pregnant. Also it's way too early for symptoms so know straight away its nothing to do with that!

Summer really hope it's not, what's the latest? Have you done the finger trick?

Mimi has yours stopped or got heavier or anything?

Jod remember you said about the bum situation well tmi but I've noticed mine gets a little sore in lp! Like a little itch and so you scratch a little and it makes it worse. Argh. Did yours just clear up?

Physics that temp drop is nothing really so don't like into it too much. Mine keeps going up and dropping like that. Highest it has been is 36.37 I think it is. Not even gone into the 4s!

Nim hopefully you will have your positive opks soon! Any ideas when you normally ovulate?

SuchaJem · 11/05/2016 19:36

I'm CD20 today and 5 DPO. Nothing of note to report. Had a bit of a stabbing feeling in lower abdomen in a meeting earlier, a bit of backache and I'm seriously tired - but I've had all of these on previous cycles.

I think really for me now it would take strong nausea or metallic taste to convince me that I might actually be preggo. All this other shit is just too wishy washy Envy
