Enjoy you're evening Tania, take care x

Tania2 · 22/10/2004 08:08

Thanks Twiga time just flys past you and next you know it its been 11 months wish i wasnt so careful when we werent ttc after ds but then my luck i proberly would have fell pg straight away and would be one of those mums with 2 under the age of 1 shivers* at the thought. Off to nannas now will catch up later.

Twiga · 22/10/2004 07:58

Tania sounds like your cycles are def 25-26 days, you need to count CD1 as just that and not CD27. Don't think a short cycle is particularly bad, sounds like you fall within an average ie: 28 days being the text book cycle and people usuallly a few days either side, say range 26-30 days as average. Could be talking complete rubbish but I think you're just a variant on average so try no to worry. 11 months is a long time and at only my 6 I probably don't have a lot to moan about, time does drag though when you're so focussed on a thing and lets face it it's hard not to once you've made up your mind that that's what you want {{{hugs}}} x

Tania2 · 22/10/2004 06:48

Good morning Twiga, just looked at my cycles for the past few months they are usually 26 or 27 but that is counting cd27 as cd1 also. so if that isnt the way to count i would be having my cycles as 25 to 26 days long (short) isnt having short cycles bad? looking back now my cycle isnt getting shorter i must be just taking more notice its so hard this will be my 11th month ttc.

Twiga · 22/10/2004 06:40

Good morning !
Tania and golds, sorry about af arriving , Tania not sure about your cycle length - what has it been getting to other months - maybe average out the last six and see what you get?
Sleepover shift at work today and then on annual leave for a week - hurrah!

Tania2 · 22/10/2004 04:30

jeddah · 21/10/2004 21:53

just going to have a quick look at the chat ......
If someone has tested and got a BFN....then I will speak to you in a few days....as too drunk at the minute.....jesus this is not good for potential motherhood!
sorry got to go dh waiting in the hotel bar with another drink!

Hulababy · 21/10/2004 21:47

It is very quiet tonight???

I think I may have EWCM! Never noticed that before. Together with the temp rise this morning, and low pains this evening, must be OV time surely?

Twiga · 21/10/2004 20:24

Hey, BeckiF welcome back x

Sleep did me the world of good. Still no sign of af, not sure what the spotting was about earlier - not a clue what is going on. Anyone got an answer re my question on implantation bleeds - vain hope probably, but like I said before things still aren't happening like they used to, which is frustrating. Just feeling sad now

Hulababy · 21/10/2004 20:16

Just been reading back Thread 9 and I got similar pains on CD18 last month - and FF has me down as OV on that day too. So, we shall see I guess.

Hulababy · 21/10/2004 20:08

CD16 here. Temp went up by .3 this morning, and for the past hour I have had cramping pains in my lower tummy. Maybe OV pains??? Last month I OVd on CD18 so quite likely I guess.

I'll not be online for the next week as I am at a wedding tomorrow afternppn and evening, and then holiday from first thing Saturday morning. Good luk to all those testing. Hope I get to see loads of BFP announcements wqhen I get back

hester · 21/10/2004 18:48

Welcome back Becki! We've been SWIMMING with BFPs in your absence, making this the luckiest ttc thread since... well, for a long time. We're hoping to get at least a couple more over the weekend (lots of people ready to test) and then have a chocolate party and a brand new thread

LipstickMum · 21/10/2004 18:35

...Maybe I am just confusing the new people on "due in June" with graduates from here!

I think we have a total of 7 graduates

So far!

LipstickMum · 21/10/2004 18:32

Yes Becki, I believe we've had 3 since me... GeorgesMummy, BinaTracy and somebody else....... hmm can't think, was sure there were 3 though scratches head

BeckiF · 21/10/2004 18:22

Hi Ladies! Yes I;m back and in fact had to abort the holiday last Saturday as our dogs (7 of) were fully taking advantage of dp's mum, who is very able. She was devestated that we had to adandon our long awited brea, as were we. The first week was full of stress as we apoke to her every day as the dogs were just SO naughty.

Anyway, I'm CD29 today, and having had a 12 month cycle prior, am paying no attention to the tender breasts. I also had a small amount of a jelly type discharge last night, very small amount and had the same last week too......we are now taking afew weeks rest before going for our IFV treatment. Mind you, I say that, and I bet it is well into the new year before we DO start!

Did I miss any graduates at all??

hester · 21/10/2004 17:55

Jeddah! Go away THIS INSTANT and enjoy your holiday !

Welcome Jules. So sorry to hear about your mc but looking forward to getting to know you on ttc11 and probably also 12

golds. It's a * isn't it.

Shely - congratulations! Bet you're glad it's over!

Now ladies, I think we need to know WHEN we are able to celebrate/commiserate with the testers (it's chocolate and alcohol either way). Can everyone report back on Monday? Or will some take longer? When do I put my bubbly on ice?

valleygirl · 21/10/2004 17:07

thanks Shelly - i am just worried because it was 5 days between the surge and ovulation last month!
have a blast in Barcelona Jeddah - definitely one of my favourite cities!
Good luck to all weekend testers - i'll be back on Monday to check upon latest news!

LipstickMum · 21/10/2004 16:51

Hehehehehe Jeddah, sneaking into an internet cafe on holiday, that's dedication Am really hoping you have some good news on Sunday, in the mean time I guess you have to stay clear of the sangria

See you soon waves

golds · 21/10/2004 16:27

Thanks at least I can go on all the big ride at Alton Towers tomorrow and not wonder should I be on all the ones that say 'pregnant women should not ride'

LipstickMum · 21/10/2004 16:24

Oh b*gger golds, sorry to hear af has arrived, was very hopeful for you Munch chocolate, drink wine and go for it next month Oh, and enjoy your 10 year anniversary celebrations!
