Hi Hope alls well today.I had a crap day my manager told everyone her daughter-in-law is 15 weeks pg.Really piss.d me off as apparently she used to be anorexic !!!!! Went in to a spiral of thinking "its not fair" "how come its not me" !!!!!!

Feel quite mean not wishing her good luck but thats just how i felt!!! Has anyone else felt like this!!!???

rainbowdays · 13/02/2009 08:21

good plan louisesh!!!!

louisesh · 12/02/2009 21:13

Mmmt ............. Think i ll just keep BD as much as i m wanting to!!!!! LOL

rainbowdays · 12/02/2009 14:55

EWCM appears before and during ovulation, and dries up immediately after you have ovulated. Now it is possible to get more than one stint of EWCM, but you only ovulate once. That is where I find temping helps, it tells me when I have ovulated.

louisesh · 12/02/2009 13:09

Oh i see!!!! I m assuming your EWCM increases around ovulation is this right??? Haven t really noticed that myself.Suppose i could start checking my temp but haven t really got the inclination for that!!!!

rainbowdays · 12/02/2009 11:08

I alway have had EWCM that is a clear indicator for me, I also irratically have done BBT temperature taking to show I have ov'd. For the first time this month I used OPK sticks. I can tell mostly from CM, but the other things help me to know for sure. My cycles are not particularly regular, so I find trying to estimate ov time from cycle length impossible for me.

louisesh · 11/02/2009 20:29

RAINBOWDAYS How do you know you re ovulating??? I never have any signs!!!!

Now trying to work out from the ovulation websites when i m next ovulating but as last AF was 42 days don t know wheter to base it on that or an average of same!!!!! Any ideas??? If i had, had a regular cycle for me last month my "fertile" period would be this weekend but i don t know.....

Hi Mith yRSDISORGANISED yes had a fab holiday hope alls well with you!!!

mrsdisorganised · 11/02/2009 19:09

Hello!
Pleased you had a good holiday Louisesh...am very ... shame about af but at least you know where you are now!

Hi Rainbow.

rainbowdays · 11/02/2009 18:59

Louisesh - good to hear you had a good holiday, sorry to hear that af arrived, but at least she had the decency to not spoil your holiday too much. I am ok, just ov'd and strangely feeling very relaxed considering I am in the 2ww!

louisesh · 11/02/2009 12:19

Hi RAINBOWDAYS Had a fab holiday weather was great 25-28 degrees plenty of BD for BD sake!!!! Had AF last sun 1 st to 3 rd feb quite light but still there. Was a concern about our flight went over to manchester a.port mon night instead of awaiting for the tues a.m and stayed in a hotel o night there. Got back at 2 am this morning and keeping up the "holiday" feeling if you know what i mean!!!

Hope you re ok? Hope the weather not getting you down too much......

Hi MRSDISORGANISED Hope all is well with you???? As above fab hols!!!! Whats happening with you ?

mrsdisorganised · 05/02/2009 18:23

Hi all!

Louisesh just wondering???? Hope the holiday goes well, will check in!
Hi Rainbow, hope you're ok

rainbowdays · 02/02/2009 16:31

Louisesh - Just a quick visit to say, I hope you have an absolutely fabulous holiday, and do come back and tell us all about it! Will be thinking of you. By-the-way, are your flights being disrupted by the snow or will it all be ok and holiday still as planned?

Numberfour · 02/02/2009 07:24

Hello

I am feeling lots better today but now my eyes are puffy from too much wine and bad food over the weekend! Still need to talk to DH about whether we are really going to try, iykwim, because he does seem really reluctant.

Truth be told, we could ill afford another and still rent our awful 2 bed house!

rainbowdays · 01/02/2009 21:38

louisesh - Hi, I am doing well, good to hear that you are getting out and about, what did you see at the cinema?

number4- sorry to hear your af arrived.

louisesh · 31/01/2009 17:34

Hi NUMBERFOUR Soo sorry for you . No still no AF and not testing anymore no point!!!!! Had fab night out with sister and her parnter last night , tired now too much wine!!!!!! Off to the cinema tonight not really thinking about this whole thing any more, [at the moment anyway1!!]

Hi to RAINBOWDAYS hope you re well.Will check in tomorrow ladies

Numberfour · 31/01/2009 11:08

AF started last night. My eyes look like I have done 10 rounds with Mike Tyson!

Anyway, that's the way it was meant to be, I suppose.

Louisesh, have you started yet? And Rainbow, how are things with you?

louisesh · 30/01/2009 15:40

Hi Rainbowdays i m fine didn t get chance to check in y.day had friends round for tea last night.STILL no AF!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not testing anymore no point. Think when i return from Egypt i m going to ask one of my colleagues to check my bloods for my fsh and lh levels particularly if i ve not come on.

hOPE NUMBERFOUR ok??? Off out tonught with family catch up soon.

rainbowdays · 29/01/2009 20:03

Louisesh - how are you today?

Numberfour · 29/01/2009 06:30

yes, I should stop using the expensive ones. just pouring money down the loo and we can ill afford it.

no AF this morning, but i am not testing today.

not really crampy, but i did feel sick a short while after waking - which was 5am when DS 4.3 wet our bed.....

rainbowdays · 28/01/2009 22:30

number4 - phew, thats expensive, after so many previous obsessions with testing, I soon learnt to buy loads of ebay cheapies and only test with the more expensive tests when I thought there was a line on the cheap tests!!!! I would be totally broke if I tested with the expensive tests every time I tested! If I were you I think saving the expensive test is a good idea, if you did not get even a hint of a line on the previous tests then you need to leave it a couple of days before another expensive test. But that is just my cheap-skate opinion . But your symptoms sound good, including those nipples!!!!

Numberfour · 28/01/2009 21:53

getting crampy period type pains

i have one test left. wonder if i should use it tomorrow if no AF or save for later??? cannot keep on buying the frigging things (although i am saving on not buying wine!! cannot bear the thought)

louisesh · 28/01/2009 20:47

Hi you 2!!!!!

Yes NUMBERFOUR thats been my main and only thought today "how your nipples are!!!" and i don t mean any "funny" business !!!LOL

Glad you er ok and feeling positive today RAINBOWDAYS on we go!!!!

Numberfour · 28/01/2009 20:11

Hi again

AF due 26 / 27 Jan. Not feeling preg at all today!

Been using clear blue and first reponse tests, Louise. Spent bloody £40 on tests already! reckon i should give it a break for a bit. getting really fed up. but today, my nipples are really sore and tender - or is that a bit yuck to tell you??? bet you've been wondering all day how No4's nipples are!!!

rainbowdays · 28/01/2009 19:08

Louisesh - believe it or not, I am actually feeling quiet positive today. I think it was so horrible being in the groundhog day situation, that just knowing,even though not great news, is easier than being in the not knowing situation. I am feeling confident for my next cycle, and ready to start ttc again very soon.

louisesh · 28/01/2009 17:57

Hi Rainboedays Hope you re well.No AF still up and down.Yes definatly off to Egypt on Tues and going to ENJOY myself with plenty of drinking and food!!!! Will check in before then.Hear what you re saying about remote chance of BFP bot for my sanity i ve stopped testing now.If i an i am thats the way i m going to look at it now!!!!

Hope you re not too down???

Hi NUMBERFOUR Whens your AF due??? Fingers crossed for you.Egypt is lovely went to harm el Sheik last year off to Hurgurda now for some "lovely" sun.Are you testing everyday? If you ve got a "pound" shop near you they do testing strips for funnily enough £1!!!

Take care both of you
