I have a ds who is 5 next month, dd1 is 2.10yrs and dd2 is 20mths[as of yesterday]
This is first full month TTC no.4 and Af just finished a couple of days ago

Yup, not over yet Diege and Shush! I am on CD 12 I think and have a peak today on the CB monitor so off to make the most of it with dh (sorry if TMI!) I am always surprised by how early CBFM tells me I am ov'ing but it must be right as I got pg after only 2 mths use with the last mc.

Nemoandthefishes · 10/09/2008 20:51

not got any ov tests but have been feeling rough like I have bad indegestion the past 2 days. am around CD 13 but tend to have a cycle of 35 days not 28...obviously am making hey while I can but seems early to be oving for me as am usually around day 19 or so...also PFB started reception today which was strange as I was so anxious about it but he practically kicked me out the classroom

Diege agree it aint over yet but tis frustrating how similiar Af signs are to PG ones

as they say deige, it ain't over still the fat lady sings

My boobs are massive today and really tender again could be a sign of af or maybe not!

Well my sore boobs and crampiness have disappeared completely now, so def. not pregnant this month I'd say as I've never been pregnant and not had those symptoms...just want af to start soon (due Sunday)then I can get onto the next cycle!
SHUSH, I'll use my free one (CBD with odd concpetion thing) on Monday if af doesn't start before then

shush3 · 09/09/2008 21:55

thanks roquefort and deige, its funny how much you forget.
I did feel like that the last 3 times like I was going to come on at any moment.

Will try not to be negative and wait and see on Sunday.

Got one of those free tests the other day, so really would like to use it

Diege · 09/09/2008 21:07

Shush, sore boobs and cramps is sign of af and also pregnancy for me - I certainly wouldn't be too disheartened yet. Many women would see those as pregnancy symptoms!

roquefortlover · 09/09/2008 20:59

sorry to hear that shush. Like you I tend to have sore boobs before AF so not having them is always a sign of pg for me altho I know it's the reverse for many.

shush3 · 09/09/2008 20:50

af due sunday sore boobs and crampy so don't think its going to happen this month

Diege · 09/09/2008 15:07

Excellent ROQ, that's sounding really good. Would be lovely to have a June baby

roquefortlover · 09/09/2008 13:40

No symptoms, on CD12 and have a high on my CB monitor! DH away tonight but we did manage "it" yesterday and the day before, and he's back tomorrow! I feel quite optimistic this month for some reason

Diege · 09/09/2008 11:20

Morning everyone! Any symptoms to report yet anyone? Nothing here, except af pains I'm sure .

Diege · 08/09/2008 16:44

Hi Mik Add yourself to the list!
NEMO - Sorry for your cold. We're doing the every other day thing too, although now that fertile time has passed my enthusiasm is waning somewhat . Getting quite bad cramps, and sore boobs so thinking af on the way

Mikafan · 08/09/2008 15:14

roq, I'll make you feel better, I'm 41 and am TTC no. 4. I have DS1 16 years old, DS2 8 yo and DD1 16 months. Have been trying for about 6 months now but DH has low mobility so it could take a while

Nemoandthefishes · 08/09/2008 15:00

roque..lol may be younger but believe me I feel anything but youthful

hope everyone is ok today I am full of cold so feel naff..still grabbing dh every other day though He keeps telling me knowing his luck I am already pg and he will only get one month of trying..pmsl

Hi Roq, I normally ovulate day 13/14, but after mmc in July I've only had one proper period so who knows!! It could be that I didn't ovulate at all this month as I didn't have a full day of EWM, just bits here and there . Just hoping for af to turn up on time, so that I can plan things better for next month!

roquefortlover · 08/09/2008 12:27

Diege thanks for your comfort on my advancing age.

When do you normally ov? ( sorry just thought this is an amazingly personal question but Mumsnet makes you ask things like that I find wehn I never would in RL) I have a fairly regular cycle and twice when I have conceived it has usually been in months when dh was away and I thought we had done the deed too early. So you could well still be lucky this month!

Nemo looks like we are cycle buddies altho obviously you have youth on your side!

Diege · 08/09/2008 10:10

Roq, you are not old (though must say it's good not to be the only late 30s/early 40s one ).
SHUSH, af is due on Sunday, so we're due around the same time. I'm going to test on Sat, but as dh was awy cd 13-17 I really don't hold out much hope for this month! Managed cd 10, 12, 17, 19, 22, but would be very lucky!

your secret safe with me, nemo! good luck

am sticking with my two and am absolutely not broody at all.

Diege · 07/09/2008 11:28

Hi Nemo - yes, not too far away at all . I commuted for several years to Liverpool, and lived there too, so very familiar with the area. LOL at lists - I'm like that too, so will start off the list and then others can add as appropriate
