Temping Buddies 6

Thanks for your congrats Ready (and am very chuffed that people are e-mailing each other to spread good news!!) and hope you have a good trip.

Scorpio - everything still crossed for you!

Basilbrush - woohoo!! Congratulations!!

straight back atcha!

Lovely to "see" you Scorpio - All the best sweets, take it easy. And hope you have your BFP when I return! x

Ready - i hope you have a good break and a rest. I too, am trying to ignore the fact i am ttc - i am less stressed now, and i try not to visit here so much.

Hope you are ok and keep well

oops. I think I missed your BFP basilbrush - I was only looking for one . Congratulations.

Hi Ladies. Hope all is well. First things first I should say a BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Beansprout - Way to go girl!!
2 little birdies emailed me to tell me that there was another BFP on here, so I had to pop on!! Lovely news.

So, just to let you all know that I am thinking about you all (in your varying degrees of personal situations!! ) but I just need some time out. I have been getting lots of things sorted with my house, and we are of course Going Home tomorrow for a couple of weeks - which is going to be lovely. And much needed. I am not taking my thermometer with me - but I shall be taking a pack of Always Ultra - so from that I am sure you can deduce that I am pretty sure that CD1 will roll on round as per usual. Some things never change.

Anyway, best not waffle on for too long. I wish you all well, and I hope that when I return (with a tan - I am heading South you know ) I hope to see some more BFPs!!

All the best.

Ready xx

Cityangel - hope you are enjoying the hectic pace of your new job. when are you testing again???

Basilbrush - big congratulations.... and yes you must have ovulated earlier and ignore that big dip 6 days ago. Great news.

This means that I can't be only 6DPO right? and that I ovulated earlier than FF is showing?

Basil - saw your other post - keep that parcel moving!

OMG

Just done a First Reponse and got a BFP. Faint but definitely there

Can't stop shaking

Took the weekend off and I come back to lovely Beansprout news ! All fine with me, some MS kicking in and some backache but I seem to be doing well on the meds even if I do look like a bruised boiled egg

Oh Beansprout many, many congratulations hon! wishing you a long, safe, healthy and boring pregnancy! Just take each day as it comes. We are here for you wherever you want to chat!

Hey Nappy how are you? Ready?s right (of course! ) I?ve heard that that agnus-cactus stuff can be dangerous if not taken properly so please don?t take it without advice I took vit B6 200mg pre OV, seemed to increase my LP from 10 to 12 days (though I guess that could have happened for lots of reasons ? I?ve taken Pregnacare since last June). You can?t underestimate the power of MN, I regularly cry and laugh and think about you all ?off air?

Ready ? what?s new with you?

Hey Fettleandbluemini thanks for the reassurance hon. I know you are right. Yesterday was 31dpo last time, that is when I had my first bleed (Valentine?s Day) the MC started on 45dpo so I guess I want to temp until then to get past that mental hurdle more than anything.

Sorry Mum03 sending huge hug, virtual chocs and wine and very best of wishes for this cycle.

Hey Jess hope the GP appointment goes well. It certainly sounds odd, I?m sure you won?t but make notes before and when you are there and don?t take no for an answer. Will be thinking of you

Hey again Basil

I have found that I have ewcm which turns creamy a couple of days before temp rise. I always thought that OV occurred on the last day of the ewcm, but often this disagrees with the OV date which fertility friend suggests based on temps. So, I often find myself unsure of how many dpo I am.

I had problems last month with FF swapping around my OV date. After a few more days of temps though it settled on a date which I pretty much agreed with.

If I find I have an unexpected low temp I usually take it again immediately afterwards to see if it's the same.

I'm probably not the best person to give advice on temping, since I am often complaining about my erratic temps . I am always changing my temp technique too. I used to switch the thermometer on then put it in my mouth and just take the first reading. Then I decided to warm it up in my mouth for a short while then switch it on. With both methods I was having problems with the thermometer taking nearly 2mins to beep (or sometimes switching itself off). So now I put it in my mouth (firmly under my tongue) and then I time 1 min before switching it on. Now it only takes 30-45secs before it beeps. However now my temps are higher than they used to be. So now it looks like my temps haven't fallen from last months post-OV phase.

I actually hate my thermometer. I often consider throwing it in the bin (or smashing it to pieces), but overall when I look back at my charts it has been helpful .

Hi girls - anyone remember me?
Well I've cracked early and I'm back. Thought I'd be 8DPO now but turns out I'm only 5 DPO according to software. I'm not entirely convinced about my sudden drop to 36.4 on Wed being accurately taken and this is the temp that's changed everything...
But I also had a big dip yesterday under the cover line which is worrying. This morning it's gone back up to 37 again - I wish I knew what on earth was going on, maybe I'm in the minority of women who have crazy BBT and you can't read anything into them...
Here is my chart, I would gratefully receive any opinions:
www.fertilityfriend.com/home/1a71bd
As for Imanginary Symptom spotting - lots of creamy CM since Tues (which is apparently BEFORE I ovulated so obviously means diddly squat...{smile]) and regular crampy feelings. Also have Strong Imginary Nausea this morning. Boobs a bit tingly but to be honest were way sorer prior to Ov.

Right! enough crazy waffle, will try to get on with some work. Have exams to write, yipee...

PS CONGRATS BEANSPROUT

Sorry Mum03 that you are back to the top but at least there are some of us left to support each other. We'll need some new recruits again soon! But hey maybe this is our lucky month.

Jess best of luck at the docs. Keep us posted. 14 days of AF that is just madness. Sounds like your body really is not happy at the mo. I hope the doc is supportive and sympathetic.

Congrats to beansprout. I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you.

Sorry to see you back at the top mum03. I thought it was looking promising for you this month.

Well I am off to see my GP on Tuesday. My last cycle was 28 days, but I was bleeding for 14 of them. This month I've had an odd AF - 1 day of normal af and then just spotting. Also my temp is so erratic. It is fluctuating wildly between pre and post OV temps. Previously it is always consistently low during this part of my cycle. I'm worried that I'm not OVing, so I'm going to ask for blood tests to find out. Also I've bought some OPKs for the 1st time to see if that sheds any light on the problem. And to make matters worse I've got a throbbing pain just inside my right hip. I'm wondering if I've got an ovarian cyst - maybe that would explain the pain and frequent spotting.

Anyway, enough moaning from me. Enjoy the rest of the long weekend.

Oh Beansprout that is fantastic news.

I am so encouraged by all these BFPs particularlly as for many of you it has been a long time coming. I know it is silly but I am genuinly quite moved and so pleased for you - my husband thinks I am quite potty when I log on and yell with delight of another BFP that is fab!!

But as noone has posted a temp since thursday, this chart might be totally wrong so please check!
