Morning - definitely in too good a mood this morning for the hut - not sure why the good mood, but not going to question it while it lasts!!

Anyway, 37.83 this morning, so up a little from yesterday. 11 DPO (well 11 days high temps - when do you count ov from, the day before temp rise or the day of temp rise?)

Evening...just about to start priming DP for some shagging...

Ready · 01/02/2007 11:54

Fettle, don't apologise about sharing your worries with us... that's what MN is for!! And we all care a great deal about you flower!! So say what you like, when you like!!!

Lottie, I read on the chart spotters thread that you are feeling down. I'm really sorry that you are going through so much emotional stress. Never nice. I think you are completely right to feel aggrieved at your mother's decision to announce her marriage plans so soon after what happened. It isn't very sensitive!! Hang in there flower. You know we are all here for you!!

Morning all

Temp back up again this am, Greedy so you are right.. 37.05.
But have really bad AF-like cramps at the mo and what could be very mild spotting again. I?ve been to check about 5 times in the past hour ? not sure what my colleagues are going to think and my hands are red raw from washing them so often!

Want to ring and ask for a scan now, but there is no point as they won?t see anything until next week at the earliest (6wks) and besides I really have to be at work tomorrow as I?m helping run a training course. Although I did tell my boss yesterday that I was pg again (we used to be peers, got promoted when I went to another job and then I came back, so she is more of a friend than true boss, which is great!), so she?ll understand if I suddenly disappear ? part of the reason I told her, so that I wouldn?t? have to explain if it goes wrong again, she would just know.

Anyway, I feel awful going on about my worries here on the TTC as at least I am pg, so please forgive me and thanks for all your support.

Ready, glad to heat that you are ok, sorry to hear you think AF is coming ? don?t give up hope yet, I was convinced I was getting AF, as my pains were really bad and have been on and off since then, so it?s not necessarily a definite sign of AF.
Don?t listen to Greedy about your strop, she disappeared for a break at around the same time if you remember!! Although she only managed a couple of days ? why is MN so addictive? See I?m back on while I?m at work!!

Minzi, sorry to hear about your drop in temp, but mine have always fluctuated a bit, either when pg or not, so it might be ok. As long as it stays above the coverline you are doing ok!

Hey, ovulators, how you doing? Lots of duvet time I hope!

Just reading in the Hut of Gloom, they are outlawing the use of AF... and I think I agree... I type it purely out of laziness, but when you strip it back to Auntie Flo, it does sound kinda twee... So period it is.

greedyforbabies · 01/02/2007 11:06

i remember you having a strop a few cycles ago too ready!!!!!! i dont know how you normally manage to stay so chirpy all the time!
it will be a sad day when i see you in the hut of doom!

Greedy - Excellent news!! Wonderful Now, take it easy will you!! Sorry if everyone thinks I am rude if I go "missing"... honestly, it's not really anything to it, just coincidence I think?? Although, I distinctly remember one flounce at AF a few cycles back

Fettle - Aaw, thanks for worrying about me, but I am ok. Just very busy yesterday, is all

Minxi - Sorry about your drop in temp, fingers are firmly crossed that AF doesn't arrive for you!!

Lottie, Rah, Mum, Honeyapple - Fingers and toes crossed for you all this cycle!!!!

Well.. as you can see my temp dropped from 36.56 to 36.48 And the AF cramps/twinges are impossible to confuse with anything else. I reckon the month I actually get pregnant (if I do!) I won't have any cramps at all, and that's how I will know.
I keep feeling like AF will arrive today, that's how strong the cramps are... but that would only be a 26 day cycle, and I've never had one that short before??!!
Every cloud has a silver lining (says the eternal optimist!) at least I never have to spend money on pg tests

greedy - you wont see much on the scan yet will you? They will only be looking for where the sac is and the thickness of your uterus lining. But having said that I did get an early view of h/b with ds, so maybe you will be lucky? I just knew all was ok.

fettle - what was your temp this morning?

was you appt with the doc rahrah? if it was, how did it go?..............if it was with your hairdresser or chiropodist or someone else, then just ignore me!

very excited cos i had no blood on my pad when i got up this morning! obviously got a bit TOO excited cos about 5 mins later when i was lifting dd out of her cot i felt a little trickle and went and checked and then there was some blood. my boobs actually feel proper pg sore today though which is good and my temp was back up!

minxi - sorry that you feel af is about to arrive. that depo is a great contraceptive isn't it................even long after you stop taking it hey? it made me leak milk when i was on it! so i stopped having it! my body always seems to do weird things!

ready - how are you doing? you always go a bit quiet at this time of your cycle dont you? you can chat to us you know, we are hear to listen to ANYTHING you have to say (however daft!)

fettle - how you doing? temp up like mine? i bet it was......our bodies do seem to be stangely linked in some way!

mum03, rahrah and honeyapple...........what are you doing reading this? you should be BDing..........you too lottie...what harm can it do!?

Hi minxi - maybe it's just taking your body a while to adjust..hopefully there is nothing wrong, but I would go to the doctors just in case. We got referred to the local Infertility clinic prior to conceiving Bertie and the waiting list are quite busy... And at mine they did investigations about 3 months apart each time... so you can imagine it takes a while! Plus has you partner been tested? How old are you? as they have different time frames for referrals for different ages. Obviously the older you are the shorter the time frame, for example if you are over 35 they may say you only need to of been trying to conceive for 9 months, where someone who is 21 they may say you need to of been trying for 18 months before getting a referral to the clinic.

Better go, Ive got an appointment at 10 and not even dressed... See you all later X

Morning all, temp has dropped again today and slightly more colour (tmi) when wiping after loo so am almost certain that af will be in full flow by tomorrow

Feel better that actually will have had a chance to see what I really need to do based on the charting with temps etc....bought some opk's after ov last month so at least will get to use them too...

Just so frustrating after coming off the depe November2004 over 2 years ago, I only put 7 cycles of ttc because that is when periods got back to normal!!

May go back to the doctors this month to see what they think, they checked ovulation back in Nov and said to come back if nothing had happened - I just assumed as the bloods were okay it would happen quite quickly - oh well back to the drawing board as it were!!

Mum03, Honeyapple and rahrah good luck with the ovulating...
Greedy - glad to hear all is going well, hang in there
Fettle, I'm sure everything will be fine this time, stay positive!
Lottie - I shall be joining you again now
Ready - Fingers crossed

greedyforbabies · 31/01/2007 23:24

neither was i honeyapple! still dont want to get too excited, but if everything turns out ok i would hate to have spent my whole pregnancy worrying instead of enjoying, so i might as well enjoy it now!

honeyapple · 31/01/2007 21:07

Hi greedy- Well that's great news! (TBH I wasnt very hopeful for you) ... did the doctors suggest any reason for the bleeding? The body is a weird and wonderful thing.
Sleep well tonight!

rahrah1 · 31/01/2007 20:41

I'm currently working for a bank - I manage the Team managers and all of their crisis and drama's.... most of the staff are quite young..but have so many issues (well they think there issues!) - It was quite a big department...until they decided to move it to a different country. I'm currently on gardening leave and will leave there at the end of March and then set up own business with a partner in IFA sector. So I'm currently just concentrating on that, so it is ready for when I'm officially unemployed and can start working again.
I have not actually been at work since about August...lol... I had really bad morning sickness and then you know the rest... so been off sick for ages, then maternity leave and now 3 months gardening leave.

Bodkin · 31/01/2007 20:39

Found you Greedy! That sounds really positive, and I hope Monday provides some clearer proof of mini-Greedy!

fettle · 31/01/2007 20:29

Greedy - that's great news!! I'm so pleased. I wish I could get some reassurance like that - but you've given me some hope if your temp was down to 36.7, as mine was 36.8[3] (I'm with you Ready, that 2nd decimal point is important!!!). But now I have to check my temp tomorrow morning, so i'm not making promises I can't keep!! i've also bought some more tests, just in case I feel really negative about it all.

Rahrah - I would find it impossible not to be on MN all the time if i worked from home. Unfortunately we have to enter a password to enter the internet and so every site you visit is logged. I'm sure someone will have noticed somewhere that I've been constantly on MN for the last week or so. But today, it kept saying the site was busy, so I just took it as a sign not to risk it anymore!!

I work for a pharmaceutical company, if I dare admit that.

What do you do?

Not heard much from you recently Ready - are you ok? I'm worried about you.

anyway, have some work I need to do now, so I'll hopefully keep popping for the rest of the evening!

take care all
x

ps mum03, enjoy your evening

rahrah1 · 31/01/2007 20:24

Very good new greedy! It can't be issues with the placenta as the placenta would not have kicked in yet, so if there is anything it should show on the scan... I have a good feeling for you...

mum03 · 31/01/2007 20:23

no time to read fully but - yippy!!!! Greedy, I just knew that rambo spermy was burrowing in good and deep and causing all the bleeding. Huh, you better be prepared for a tough kid there! Congrats and big hug to you.

Will come back to read more tomorrow, right now I have some work to do with my dh

greedyforbabies · 31/01/2007 20:08

fettle my temp was down to 36.7 this morning too. its a worry isnt it? we should prob both stop temping................................mind you.............i can say i will stop, but i wont! i know what i am like!

greedyforbabies · 31/01/2007 20:06

i have news!

cant quite believe it but my levels more than doubled, so APPARENTLY thats a really good sign and there is still an ickle baby growing inside me! i am being scanned on monday cos i am still bleeding and passing clots. i am confused really, cos all this bleeding is telling me there must be something wrong, but then my blood test results are exactly what they should be. now i feel a bit in limbo till monday when maybe i will get some answers about the bleeding.

anyway! i really cant moan cos i got the best result possible today so i am over the moon! i just dont want to get too excited until ive had the scan too!

i hope i am not being too much of a drama queen for you all.........sorry!

thanks for thinking of me, its lovely to know people that dont even know me care!

fettle! - i did think of giving you the credit when i told honeyapple about the 36hrs before thing! but then i thought "nah! i'll let her think im really smart!" little did i know you would read back over this thread and catch me out! doh!

minxi - i dont know if you want a story to give you hope..........but i tested on 11dpo and it was neg, then on 14 dpo it was pos and i rummaged in the bin to get the old test out and there was the faintest tiniest line ever that i had missed ( and believe me i studied it hard at the time!). so its not at all surprising to get a bfn at 10dpo. also i started spotting at 7dpo, so brown smudge could be nothing to worry about

greedyforbabies · 31/01/2007 20:02

ok stop worrying!

ammylovesbabies · 31/01/2007 19:56

I'm worried bout Greedy too- which is weird worrying bout someone I bearly know!!

Have checked in all day to see if she's ok. Am concerned now. x

rahrah1 · 31/01/2007 19:50

Sorry buggered up my connection

Hopefully will not be ovulating until we get to wales. I think we conceived Bertie in Wales, so I think I will be really disappointed if it does not happen.. Normally I kick up a right fuss going to see the MIL... The lengths you will go to!

I think it will good Fettle if you can get an early scan, just to put your mind at rest.
What a nightmare about work... no MN until you get home! I'm starting my own business so MN all the time for me! I must admit it's a bit of a distraction.. What job do you do?

I'm really worried about Greedy... hope she is ok..
