Wow - well these look like some great symptoms!
shazza did you say you're testing this sunday?
pixie that looks very hopeful, do let us know if you get a BFP!

sarah if you know your luteal phase, then you can test on the day that you would be due. So if you think you've ovulated three days earlier this cycle, test at CD33. It's always better to wait as long as possible but we all know that's impossible!

and WELCOME BACK picknmix!!! . Hope you had a briliant time!

me bit...
I did have a drink last night, but it wasn't on an empty stomach - had a glass of very nice white wine and half a glass of prosecco. relaxed me loads, had a great time and then left the dinner as everyone was getting very very drunk to go on to my sister's gig. she did very well and I'm very proud.

so continuing with my temp chart fiddling, am going to pretend I've hatched even if I haven't. i think the ewcm yesterday could have been some (tmi) leftovers from the bd the night before. so unless i get much more obvious EWCM like I did last week I'm going to leave DH to rest every other day!

so I guess I'm on the lookout for symptoms now

Bucky2007 · 23/11/2007 09:16

Morning everyone

Pixie I am keeping my fingers crossed! I really hope it is a BFP, for you and also for this thread...we need some good luck!!!!

Hope everyone has a good day. x

Shazza2002 · 23/11/2007 09:06

Morning all

It's Friday Yaaaahhhh

Sorry about your car bucky But at least you are ok?.

ooohh pixie, will be checking in on Sunday

ladylush Understand entirely, why when you're on holiday for 2 weeks does it never go this slowly

Well, could be imagining this. But have had tummy ache and back ache since Wednesday. Then last night felt really shaky and like I was gonna pass out, thought I was just hungry. Cooked my dinner but then had about 3 mouthfuls and couldn't eat anymore. Just either felt full or didn't fancy it, hard to describe. Never turn my nose up at food. CD27 which is about 7 DPO. Could this be symptoms are too early?

Morning to everybody else, especially those who are not having a very nice time of it

Oh pixie how strange Fingers crossed. x

07mumstheword · 23/11/2007 08:49

I forgot picknmix How lovely to have you back. Hope you had a fantastic holiday.

07mumstheword · 23/11/2007 08:48

I went to bed early with a hot water bottle last night due to bloody horrible period pains!

Lots to catch up with, Bucky you poor thing, another insurance claim to deal with but at least you were not hurt.

Abbeymeg "saw" you on the other thread, we are cycle buddies so may I gatecrash your honourary (sp??) cycle buddy group with Bucky?

Sarah I don't know the answer to your question DG where are you? I'm sure she'll know! I wondered the same myself but someone said sometimes you can test 10dpo?

MOB Really interested to know how your appointment with nutritionalist goes today.

Pixie Posted on other thread, take care

Good morning to everyone else.

pixie04 · 23/11/2007 08:48

I know I said yesterday I am taking a break but ......

I threw up this morning!

I felt quiet nauseaious (don't know how to spell it) this morning, so I drank a glass of milk slowly, then after I started brushing my teeth I really felt like I was gonna vom so I stopped and five minutes later I was rushing to the loo throwing my guts up I also had to practically force feed myself half a yohgurt but heres the thing I don't feel unwell no headache no stomach ache no fever just nausea.

My boobs don't hurt but I had quiet strong lower back pain last night which is strange considering AF just left a few days ago. Also AF.... I only bled for one day where I needed to use sanitary towels the other days was just dark brown/black spotting. Am starting to think that it was implantation rather than AF.

Gonna test on Sunday xxx

evening everyone...

Firstly so sorry about your car crash bucky, hope you are feeling ok...

Well i managed to seduce dh earlier even though he was complaining of a sore tummy!!! So now i am officially playing the waiting game.. lovely!!!

Now my question is , my last two cycles have been a horrible 36 days, this month everything has happened much earlier... so do i wait til cd36 to test or should i test earlier??!! I swear i'm not obsessing ( sarah been to costco on monday and bought 4 cbt!!!!) xxxx

PicknMix - hello! Long time no (see?)! I hope you had a good break. I'm very jealous. Come, join us in the single-figures .

Bucky - too right! You both will be relying on my ankles come CD28!

Bucky2007 · 22/11/2007 18:56

Welcome back PicknMix we missed you .

Are you CD4 or CD5...I think we could be cycle buddies too. If so, Abbeymeg is our honourary cycle buddy .

madoldbird · 22/11/2007 18:52

Good evening everyone

Sorry i haven't been around much the past week or so, we have had a lot of sad family stuff going on.

So a big hello to everyone, i haven't really caught up with everything, but special hugs to Bucky and pixie as i've just skim read todays posts.

Well, last month (29 days) got smiley face on CD 16, but got home from work this evening and had to have a quick underwear change due to copious CM (do i REALLY discuss this stuff on here?!) and thought i'd do a OPK test, and wow, CD 12today and smiley face!!! Sad thing is, DH erm, "flushed out his pipes" as he describes it this morning, in order to have some nice fresh swimmers in 2 or 3 days!!!!! (he really does take this very seriously) i've justed texted him to let him know they are needed sooner. Is it usual to ovulate at different times even in fairly regular cycles??

Am going to a nutritionalist tomorrow to see if she suggests anything and try and get generally healthier. Will report back on any useful snippets of info. Also trying preseed as well this month.

I guess i shouldn't be here as not on 2ww yet, but i feel most at home here!! Have a good evening everyone. X

coolkat · 22/11/2007 18:27

Good Evening everyone. Sorry for my rant yesterday, I have brought you all some nice fresh fruit salad and bottled water

Pixie I understand, I hope you come back soon refreshed and possible with BFP. Sometimes these things happen when we are least expecting and trying for them. X

Bucky so sorry to hear about youR accident, I don't think you sound self obsessed when you post or any of us I think its nice to know what others have been up to and its certainly sometimes very needed to air and say how we are feeling as its not always possible in RL.

Get BD Sarahnh

Hope everyone else is ok. X

PS my AF still awol, mum thinks I look preg around my boobies?!! - I don't!

PicknMix · 22/11/2007 18:21

Hi all,

I'm back from my month long trip to Oz (literally got back today and still spinning from 30 odd hours of flying!)

Haven't had a chance to catch up yet but just seen that you are having a rest Pixie - 10 months is a long time for you, big hugs and hope to hear from you soon xx

And Bucky - sorry to hear about your car accident but pleased you weren't hurt x

Hi to CBCB and Abbymeg - lovely to see you both back here!!

Well, not offically on 2ww as af caught up with me 4 days ago (I think - bit confused by time zones at the mo, once I've worked it out I'll update the waiting room stats!). Gonna go all out this month ttc so I can test at Christmas, off to buy evening primrose oil tomorrow and going to make appointments with accupuncturist and doctor.

Anyway, severe jet lag means I am waffling badly so off to veg in front of tv!

I'll try and read through properly tomorrow - massive apologies if I've missed something and am being terribly rude to somebody......

abbymeg · 22/11/2007 18:09

Pixie - posted on the other thread to you. It's strange that I just get back, and you're going - but I completely understand. I found 3 months hard, so I totally appreciate that 10 months must be really difficult. It will happen for you. Enjoy your rest, and I hope you feel ready to ttc again soon. XXX

Excitable · 22/11/2007 17:58

Hi Pixie

Sorry to see you go, but know you'll be back soon. Do whatever you need to honey...

Day43 and still no blinking period. I'm going to yoga on Monday to see if I can align my chakras or something...

pixie04 · 22/11/2007 17:56

thanks DG I will still keep an eye on the threads though to see when you guys get your BFP's x

digitalgirl · 22/11/2007 17:54

pixie x-posted

I understand, it's so very hard to remain calm and 'what will be will be' about it when you have irregular cycles. I hope you come back with a surprise BFP

digitalgirl · 22/11/2007 17:52

bucky I've emailed you hon - will be heading off soon, so will catch up with you much much later or check my emails in the morning

pixie04 · 22/11/2007 17:52

Hi ladies

I'm sorry I haven't really been keeping up with the thread for the last few days since AF turned up.

I've been having a think and I'm going to give ttc a break for a little while. it's been ten months now and it's really getting a bit much for me. The lows when AF arrives are awful and the anxiety and stress when I think I'm ovulating isn't doing me any good. It may only be for a month but I need a break.

I will still lurk on the threads tho to see how everyone is doing.

digitalgirl · 22/11/2007 17:39

gg second acu session was good, felt very buzzy. I'm still not sure that I've definitely ovulated though. I had EWCM today. This ov-thing is stressing me out the same way that waiting for AF was stressing me out last cycle. Trying to be really cool about it, but at the same time wondering when the hell I'm going to get an obvious temp rise. Why have I had ov-cramps since the weekend?

Have got a client drinks & dinner tonight, not sure if I should drink or not. Probably will have a glass to try and relax.

bucky you poor poor thing. What a crappy day you've had.

Bucky2007 · 22/11/2007 17:33

I'm ok, just fed up . Now I have to add fixing my car to sorting out my burglary! Just scraped the bumper badly and smashed a light.

Didn't see Sweeties story, I was a bit self consumed sorry . It was very sweet and did even bring a smile to my face and today that is some achievement.

I am going to pretend you are my cycle buddy Abbey besides if I have a 26 day cycle you could be?

Thanks again to everyone for being so sweet, you must all think I am so up my own backside...all I talk about is me, me, me and my disasters. I do care about everyone and I do read what you are all up to, I just get a bit caught up with all my dramas.

Glad your eggs have hatched dg and sarah and fingers crossed for all your 2ww's. Sending baby dust *

ladylush · 22/11/2007 17:32
