TTC NO20 - This time we will graduate...

ahhh sorry hula xx

AW bless him - that first year goes so quick! DD will be 3 a week on Tuesdau (her party in next Saturday) - she was also due on March 24th (but was 2 weeks late).

Have AF symptoms in now - feeling sick and crampy

Hi ladies, just checking in and hoping everyone's OK. Not had time to catch up with the thread - just wanted to send hugs and babydust to you all

DS is one a week tomorrow...this time last year I was overdue - he was due on 24th March! Amazing...seems like yesterday. He's understanding more and more each day (will turn 'upside-down' when you're holding him if you ask him, claps, waves, says bubble and bye-bye and will mimic sounds perfectly. Just went upstairs where DH is dressing him after his bath to find him jigging up and down on the bed to Abba! Not sure that's the calmest bedtime routine, but hey-ho!) and he's just wonderful - hope I can give him a little brother or sister soon. How broody can one woman be, I ask?!

fresco - I am on CD28; OVd around CD18/19 I think (according to OPK) and AF due tomorrow or Monday. Have had a bit of light cramping this morniing, but so far nothing else to suggest one way or the other.

How are you doing?

GOOD LUCK FLINGING LOTS OF BABY DUST YOUR WAY.

Fresco if u are u probably wouldnt be able to see it it is v difficult.im on cd7 bdancing this morning think dh was starting to feel like a munk.lol

hula, where are you in your cycle?
CD29 for me.no sign of af.

cani buy it in Boots? idont know if its a good idea as i am v v v shortsighted.

when i did it in december it showed i ovulated 7 days after my period then day 14 of cycle so it is v accurate.

no its just you can tell ovulation by saliva and ur wee you just lick the lens in the morning when you get up and let the lens dry then you click it into a cylinder type microscope and if the crystals are starting to form into ferns ur ovulating it is good but not worked for me yet so i may try personna as everyone hear raves about it.Calista costs about 20 quid which is a fraction of he cost of personna.Uhave to have v v good eyesight though or where contact lenses like me when i have my glasses on i cant see it at all.

so what would u trust more an opk or a saliva kit detector?or do they just work differently?

your saliva ferns and crystallises when u ovulate and u see evidence of this a few days b4.

i would go to doc Debbs.its funny cos even midwife mentioneed kit called 'maybe baby' sold in Ireland (well she is irish) and its detecting your ov with saliva.how can saliva detect ov?

fresco hope it doesnt come and u have a bfp.Use calista saliva ovulation kit,but havent for past couple of mths dh and i decided to just relax and enjoy ourselves im very concerned with whats going on with me dont feel myself at all feel v tired even after doing a bit of housework boobs keep springing still feeling sick smells make me gag.But i was 7 days late came on on sat lost blood but not as heavy as normal lost a small clot (tiny) then by mon nothing just like turning a tap on and off done 3 tests last one was last sat bfn???

my story, i am waiting for af to turn up tomorro and i am back onto a 28/29 days cycle as i was before having dd.
are you tracking your ov cycles at all? any BBT or OPK?
i decided if i am not pg this month, i will use a opk next month on top of tracking temp.and if that doesnt work then i dont know ladies....... i have an appt next wed to discuss my blood result re: ov and although they are ok why dont i get pg i will ask him
you waiting to test as well hula?

Good luck pop hope it works out for you.hi Hula good luck you u 2.Fresco NOT testing again as ive had 2 bfn somthings wrong though i went to bed last nite at 9pm and ive just got up and still feel v v tired.Whats ur story?

Good to hear you so positive Pop.

CD27 here, with AF due about Sunday time.

lol @ BOBmunn.but better that than the plummer!! hehe.have fun hen.hehe.xxxx

hi all munz ahh 2 weeks will pass quickly.lol -BOB.Im going to see the nurse on tues with my mum only had one clot only bled 4 times sat sun then went off again a bit like turning tap off.Not getting my hopes up dont think im pregnant now think ive got a hormone imbalance or something

good to hear u more positive pop, and hopefully the test results will come back in ur favour as well. sorry but also happy for u that AF came along.

Nikki - well up to u hon, but it always happens when u least expect it apparently so good luck it will probably happen, new house and all! (last time I said that JM actually found out she was PG about a week b4 they moved)

I'm back!! Had a busy few days but I'm here again. So much to catch up on. I went to the docs on Tuesday as I was on CD48 and getting worried. Two BFN and no symptoms of pg so was concerned about what was going on with my body. I'm going for blood tests to see if I ov.

I'm now CD2!!! Yay!!! I must be the only one who was actually delighted to see Af!! She came yesterday but wasn't much blood but today lots of fresh, red blood (sorry TMI!). I am so relieved that Af finally here. I can now go for blood tests in a couple of weeks and see what's going on with my ov. Also got my persona monitor today so will start to use that this month too!! I'm rather chipper right now!! Hope everyone else is fine.

Good luck Hula!
Think we might leave it this month - too much else to stress about this month!

sorry about af hen.i would say SOD it nikki but then its me.i am not working and i have alreaady moved house

about AF

Tested, BFN, and then AF came anyway. So not this time. And not trying this month because of Christmas. So back on the long wait. Thinking of you all.
