Hi all, I do know what you mean twilightsurfer - I just want to know. dd is now at nursery 3 mornings a week and I feel if I don't have number2 I will need to think about going back to work. It is just the pure not knowing that is sooo hard.

moodymoo - cd 10 today and still low. Not too worried at the moment though as I am hoping that my high and peak will be next week when we are on hols and dh will not be able to use work as an excuse for not - sorry about your dh - although with the monitor we are supposed to have a bigger window to catch them !!

Hi all. Been really busy at work so good to finally catch up with this thread. Sorry to hear about all the BFN and AF.
Quick question- Can you start to use OPK's mid cycle?
I have a long cycle (38-32) and would like to have a better idea when ovulate- so know when to jump on DP!!!!

Hiya Bellie - got my first high reading on monitor today - was so excited I tried to drag dh back to bed - work didn't seem so important any more but he said NO - cos he didn't have the time!! anyhow going to rectify that very soon. Got a pack of opk's still hiding under my car seat so I reckon I might use them alongside the monitor for this month just to check out how reliable they are. How is it going for you?
Hi to everyone else still catching up on who's who etc.

cbcb you're not seeing things. It doesn't look like your CD got updated. You should be CD34 ... or CD1 as it turns out. Sorry.

Kinda feel REALLY PMSy myself today. Pretty sure I'll wake up to AF. CDs typically 28 days ... tomorrow is 29. My best friend had a scan yesterday and found out she's having a girl. It was a bittersweet phone call as my news was still BFN. Our lives have flipped. It took her three years and several IVFs before she conceived DS but it only took me two BDs. Now she fell in a couple of months and I'm still ttc. Sounds like a modern day Shakespeare play. "A tale...full of sound a fury signifying nothing."

I did fit in a good walk today. One to clear my head. Two to get the blood flowing. Found it to be a bit zenful. Might consider doing it again tomorrow. Seems ttc has my head all messed up. Can't focus on the next stage of my life until I figure out whether it includes DC#2. If no DC#2 then must prepare to re-enter workforce. If DC#2 then must prepare for crazy baby hours for next three years. I'm a habitual planner so it's important to know SOMETHING. I feel like I'm loosing two weeks of every month just waiting on SOMETHING to happen. PITY PARTY OVER FOR THE EVENING. THANK YOU FOR COMING. NEXT SHOWING TOMORROW AT NOON.

welcome spink

lol about your legs!!

Spink · 29/08/2007 19:02

hello.. can I join in? We're trying for no.2, ds is 6 months old.. I've had 2 AFs since we started trying, and I'm on day 20 of my cycle. dh has been away a lot with work the last week or so.. so I reckon a bfn in sept is pretty unlikely. But. You never know . I am crossing my fingers. Not my legs (sorry) but definitely my fingers....

Bellie · 29/08/2007 18:36

cbcb sorry I know you were really hopeful too.

Hope to see you soon xx

AbRoller · 29/08/2007 18:23

cbcb, hope things get better for you. take care

Hi DG, well like you it's my first cycle TTC. I'm assuming I would have OV'd on day 14 (now CD16) as AF very regular at 28 days and I know the exact day dd was conceived (CD15) so I don't think I could have OV'd before Monday. If that's the case then implantation would still not have happened.

I guess like everyone else I'll just have to wait and see.I've found some good early pg symptoms websites and I'm ticking off like a crazy woman but realistically all our bodies are different and a test is the only thing that will confirm. Now all I have to do is muster up the patience to wait the couple of weeks before testing - I'll be unbearable to live with

Hope you get that BFP really soon. Only a few more days to wait. Fingers X'd

digitalgirl · 29/08/2007 13:43

twilight sorry for your bfn I couldn't bring myself to test this morning as AF REALLY felt due. also, couldn't face seeing another BFN. still, it's lunchtime and no AF yet. will test tomorrow morning maybe...

abroller I think implantation happens 5-6 days after conception...does that sound like you? i know I've had cramps this month since CD17, they got worse up to CD25/26 then died off over the weekend only to return with a vengeance today. it's my first cycle ttc so not sure if it's unusual or if I'm being exceptionally alert to every twinge.

AbRoller · 29/08/2007 12:38

hi all, I really must check in more often, lots of messages since my last and it's hard to keep up! Sorry for all who've had a BFN and AF arrive, we'll all keep hoping together for a September BFP. It would be wonderful if, like Sweetkitty said, we all ended up on the same AN thread.

Dp has forgiven me for being over zealous! Still no BDing as we were both exhausted after a long day out with family yesterday but I'm trying to be positive. digitalgirl not sure what the pain was as I usually don't read into anything like that but under the circumstances I'm reading into and analysing everything! The twinge is still there though so it could mean anything I wonder if we can 'feel' implantion [hopeful emoticon]

I remember when pg with dd I had period-like cramp about a week before AF was due but now, with almost a fortnight to go I am having cramps? Also I've gotten up in the middle of the night for the last two to use the bathroom. Feeling tired more than usual. Oh and I've gotten very emotional and cried for silly things in the last two days. That usually happens though with PMT so again I'm none the wiser. Other than those few things I don't really feel any different but it's early days.

Not since the days of waiting for Santa have I ever felt so excited, impatient and worried (that maybe he didn't get my letter!!! lol)

Take care all
Abs

TwilightSurfer · 29/08/2007 11:45

BFN
Not even slightly extra line.
No AF yet of course.

Oh well...busy day.
No time to wonder.

Hope others find that mysterious extra line today.

Thanks for adding me on I've filled in the rest of my details on there.

Still no AF and appart from tiredness and a little bit of nausea yesterday no symptoms. I really want to hold out testing until Saturday 8th September. I want to give myself a chance of getting my AF without testing every other day.

sweetkitty · 29/08/2007 07:51

W2E - course it's ok to call me kitty I'm kind of used to it it's my msn name too so I've had it years, I even got a present from a friend last year with kitty on it.

TS - twice now I've been horrible and phoned DP at work and told him I had a BFP first time it was because he was in a different country and second time (in June) because I was so shocked it was BFP. I do feel awful about it and told him at the time that I promise never to do it again and if I ever tested he would see the result first, this was when I thought it was the last time I would ever pee on a stick though. So I will have to keep my promises now.

Not that I will be doing anything anytime soon we still haven't had sex since the mc mostly due to the bleeding but DP v stressed this week as he has 2 job interviews and a training course and I've been ill with teh cold. Def must rectify this this weekend.

Anyway hope you all have a good day must get off of here and start to get the DDs ready.

Hope updated everyone correctly!!

Well I am on cd9 - still showing low fertility on the monitor and started bleeding again (for those that don't know had ectopic in Sept 06 and since then had light bleeding on and off from day 8 until period starts!) am still trying to be positive tho and hope that our holiday on Saturday makes us less stressed about the whole thing. Am really hoping for the BFP when I get back so that I don't have to have a hysterosocopy and my cervix cauterised 24th Sept. Although a little bit of me thinks that I may get to the bottom of what has been causing the bleeding and pains that I get every month!

Are there any testers today??

BORED AND SURFING
Decided I'd help out the first to post list in the AM. I tried to add all the newbies I found and update any that seemed to need it. PLEASE double check me.

Tomorrow I may test. With DD I got my first faint positive on CD28. It's risky. If it's BFP I don't know how I could contain myself with DH still away on business. If it's negative, well then I've pissed away another test then haven't I. Feeling a little pre-AF today but nothing like normal. By now I'm usually biting everyone's head off, balled up on sofa with chocolates. Will consider testing but won't be able to post results till midday as too hard to post while DD runs around my feet.

Here's to a quiet night.
