Trying to concieve 11 thread for October!! For us Unlucky ones on 10

Don't know really MrsW, was sort of planning on waiting to come on and be disappointed naturally but I may crack soon. Tomorrow is CD36 so if I haven't come on by then I think I may test tomorrow night........dp will tell me not to though!

Good luck with your testing too!

Due anytime from 15 days after O so friday ish?? only my thrird cycle post baby so we'll see!!

mmmmm cramps with no af- I have that for a week after my af was due with ds...and they got worse and worse until i dared to test- and it was ++++++- don't give up till it actually happnes mrsw!!

Thanks for all your supportive messages, they are much appreciated. I'm feeling ok now, just got to write the 'congratulations on your baby' card (through gritted teeth!) then I'll try and forget about it!

So, there's a few coming up to testing time then - it's exciting! Runtus, how much longer are you going to wait before testing? I admire your patience. Geordie, when are you due? Good luck muddaofsuburbia!

I'm due today, AF hasn't arrived yet but I'm having AF pains and absolutely no pg symptoms. Will see if it arrives tomorrow or Wednesday and may test on Thursday if not (cycles have gone a bit haywire lately).

Hope you are all having a fun Monday so far

I'll go for the emotional route I think, "I would be able to relx if I knew etc...." sounds good!

runtus-
they might not be so bothered about temping as they will be about how long you've been trying. My gp did blood tests after a year- I had temped for 4 months into that year.

You might need to say that you have temped (my dr never asked to see my charts) the main thing is that if you are quite stressed by ttc then the bloods will put your mind at ease a bit about ov- this was the line I took with my dr!!

Hope that you get the bfp before you need to go down that route!!

Trying realy hard not to think about it cp3.....ignorance is bliss and all that!

Good idea Geordie, I'll see what happens this month and if need be, I'll make an appointment with the Doctor. I can always ask them to do the test, worst case he'll say no and think I'm neurotic!

I could always fib and say I've been temping for 3/4 months?!

ooooohhhhh then i think i will abstain from BDing and let the girls have a chance then [ wink]

there are people who have fallen pg having only bd up to 4 days before O...it isn't as likely though...as hula says what about omorrow...eggs live for 12 hours!!

More than possibly - girly ones! They hang around longer. But if you BD today - the boys ones have a chance too

OV should follow very very soon - maybe tomorrow??? Your DH needs to be warned OPains could be related to OV too. I had cramps night before my temps rose.

Hula - will there be any swimmers hanging around from Fri - dont think BDing is possible today!

Egg white CM is supposed to be the most fertile CM - so means you need to be BD today!!!

i must be CD19 then - yickes - havnt BD'd since Friday - is there still a chance? Hula - where are you i need your words of wisdom!!!

OMG - you know i said i thought i had ov'ed but without eggwhite - well i have just got the eggwhite!! Am i OVing now or in the next couple of days???

Morning all!
CD 19 - 24 here (wish i could decide which it is!) either way its a waiting game!
Had a funny old weekend really- had these horrid stomach cramps on saturday which i have never experienced before but i suppose it could have been wind. they started on saturday afternoon as a lower back pain and then spread round to my stomach/ pelvis for the rest of the day and were gone by sunday... weird
Yesterday i was convinced my boobs were tender/heavy but today they definately are not!! Just got the "zit" on my face that i always get prior to A/F ...AAAAAHHHH am so confused by real/imagined symptoms .... want this week to pass quickly just so i can know either way. Am going to test on Sat. morning i think... (Rant over)

Morning everyone!

My stats: TTC No 2 since April this year. Had a m/c in June and another one in Sept but still optimistic! DS is 26 months. On CD 22 or thereabouts now but Oved late due to the miscarriage so still over a week to AF. Took this month off so definitely no BFP. Fingers crossed for the next cycle!

MrsW, don't worry. That's what we're all here for and most of us have felt exactly the same way at some point. Hope you're feeling better.

Hi Twiga! Good to see you. Good luck!!

Morning all,

good idea runtus- the best guide to temping could be to read the fertility friend website or maybe buy or borrow the book taking charge of your fertility by toni weschler! However useful temping is- it is not an absolute guarantee to tell that you are ovulating (it's pretty good though) so the doctor would want to do blood tests anyway to check before prescribing anything. Any chance you could get them to do bloods without having to temp for 3-4 months to get a good picture of your cycle?? Might be worth asking...temping will help to make sure you are bding at the right times though!!

Not feeling positive about being pg myself...temps are down a little- still over the coverline but feeling a little af ish. know it's not over yet...and part of me is desperate to test!!!!

hoping that one of us will get a positive soon!!!!!

Morning all, great new thread! The old one was just toooo long to scroll down.......here's hoping it is just as lucky as no 10 was! SOunds like there are some likely candidates already.....

Somehow I have managed not to test over the weekend!I'm sort of too scared to becuase I don't want to be disappointed again and the longer I leave it, the longer I can delude myself. Still not got any pg symptoms really but not come on either so I guess it could go either way. CD35 but have had longer cycles so not sure what to make of it really. Thought I had come on last night actually, after some 'activity' in the bedroom dept. No sign this morning though so keeping my fingers crossed it wasn't the start....

Was talking to a friend at the w/end and she mentioned that I should try and find out if I'm actually ovulating because long cycles like mine can indicate that I'm not.

Got dp to agree that I will begin temping next month (if I'm not pg now) so I can go to the doctor and basically prove that I'm not oving (if I'm not!) and ask to be put on Clomid/ have it recognised.

Good luck then.

If AF hasn't appeared by tomorrow then I'll test. Hopefully my silence will speak volumes cos if it's a BFN then I'll be posting on this thread again IYSWIM!

Are you planning of testing? Or just wait and see?

On CD27 today. Temp down a bit, but it is like a yoyo most of time!!! Have AF symptoms though - lower back ache, a bit of tummy ache, etc.

Hi - am torn!

CD29 and no sign of AF...

Will hold off testing til Tuesday, just in case I'm late (for the first time in my life), but IF I am pg, then I think I'll wait til family etc know before posting on here, cos I'd really like them to be the first to know. Plus I know some folks in RL read my postings and I'd hate the news to break here before letting people know "properly".

BUT I don't even know if I am pg!!!! Don't I have enough to stress about without worrying about what ifs?! Doh!

However, if I'm not pg(and hey I'm only 2 days late) then I'll be back moping around here again asking for persuasion tactics to get dh to agree to using Ov kits

does any of that make sense?
