Charter's Anonymous: Volume 3, here's to better luck this time for us all!

[spilttheteaagain]

A shiny new thread girls and hopefully we shall all get merrily up-duffed with sticky beans

Just got the faintest line on an OPK, I am hoping this means that it is gearing up for O-Day!!

Hello all!

Well, 13DPO and no sign of AF, however my BBT gave me a dodgy temp this morning - basically, if I believed it I think I would actually be dead! . Anyhoo, I only noticed it after I had been up & about for a bit and had had a shower, so I've had to discard this morning's temp. Therefore, I have no idea if AF is around the corner or if I can still cling on to a bit of hope!

Have still been getting cramps & watery CM which could be AF, boobs still feel like rocks. Also felt a bit bleugh today, but I've also got a bit of a sore throat, so think I may be coming down with something (oh joy).

Hi there ifatfirst - dodgy temp as in low? I hope you are not actually dead! Maybe the battery is going?

How long is your LP normally? I.e. are you "late" yet, or not yet?

I've come down with a sore throat today too

Positive sounding symptoms IF

Is sore throat a symptom? Hope so me too! (10dpo)

My LP varies but is normally 14/15 days. So if no AF by Thursday night/Friday Morn - I'll test!

My god - I've just googled a sore throat as an early symptom and came across this site that lists loads. I'm sure I can check off most of them on a normal day!!!

AF arrived today. Bugger fuck. Off to open bottle of vino.

oh that's pants MrsA - make sure you enjoy that wine!!!

if I have been lurking and just had a look at that site you linked to.

I have to say that as far as the emotions go I can feel all those in 1 day - apart from the increased sex drive - haha.

Love to all.

Oh MrsA I am so for you. I really thought with all that SWI you would be a shoo-in.

That site is good Ifatfirst - for helping you make the most of any bodily feeling!!

CD12 today, last month OV-ed on CD15 so I am hoping my body is gearing up for it. Cervix definitely feels higher and slightly more open and soft but very minimal changes. I don't seem to have any EWCM yet which is odd as I usually have loads from quite early on (CD5 last month)

OPK negative again tonight.

Gotta go, DH made risotto!!

Bugger, MrsA. Sending you brie and pate too.

Keep going with those OPK's, Terrys. Have high hopes for them this month

Damn and buggeration mrsA, enjoy the pate x

Arsetits mrsa

Hope you're enjoying your vino.

My chart has gone mental, having big fluctuations for a few days in a row. And beginning to feel some twinges in that area so something is trying to happen.

Starting yoga next week for the first time since I did pregnancy yoga. Really looking forward to it.

So sorry MrsA. I hope your next cycle doesn't mess you around like this.

I have my fingers crossed for IfAtFirst, GetDown and nickster on your 2ww's, hope we get another BFP after Ladys wonderful news.

terrys keep up the good work.

I'm off work again today after a nightmare day yesterday. I feel so useless and guilty and generally crap about not being able to work. Wish I had no job and then I could wallow here for as long as it takes without fretting about work guilt as well.

I was in pain all evening on Monday and Tuesday because I had been so physically tense all day at work I had given myself a stomach ache and hurt the muscles in my back. The effort of gritting my teeth and holding back tears all day had left me with an aching neck and jaw and puffy stinging eyes.

I have just written a big vent on the miscarriage thread here about how shit it all is but don't want to clog this place up too far.

I hope you are all ok, especially you MrsA, CD1/2 can be very hard and lonely. I always used to tell myself on CD1 that if it worked this month then I was already 1 day pregnant. That cheered me up a bit. I had a few 3+6 week pregnancies by that logic

So sorry AF arrived MrsA it is totally gutting.

Don't feel guilty about being off today, it's still early days. Am so sorry you struggled yesterday and I'm not surprised you had physical aches by the end of the day.

The mind and the body are so closely linked. When I had depression it felt like I had flu - shaky, shivery, aches. It's amazing how one can affect the other.

I hope you are tucked up on the sofa today with a big hot chocolate (freezing here) and some cake.

I am on DPO 6. No symptoms today.

Sorry that second part was for you spilt

Thanks GetDown. My sister is on her way over so I better get showered and dressed at least.

Hope you've had a nice time with your sis today spilt

Any sign of ov. yet Terrys?

My crampy-womb feeling seems to have gone today. I am 6DPO, last cycle when I got pregnant I had implantation pains at 7DPO... so am hoping I might feel something tomorrow.

Trying not to get my hopes up too much.

Hi all

At work and v busy but I like to procrastinate with you ladies every now and again!

-ve OPK again today, will do another tonight.

Did have a few lower abdomen twinges a couple of minutes ago but last month they were very apparent for quite a few hours so we will see.

GetDown hope you are in pain tomorrow!!

spilt I hope you are having a nice relaxing day, don't worry about work, just take care of yourself.

MrsA I hope you are somewhere drinking wine, eating brie and having a hot bath! Do come back and join us when you feel ready. xxx

((((spilt)))))

Sorry you feel so rubbish, second the hot chocolate with marshmallows and fresh cream xxxx

Have you had any contact with SANDS at all? I hear they are quite well received if thats appropriate to say!

still temping 11 dpo ish...no symptoms thus far apart from everything on that list but then am not looking

Thanks girls, you are all so lovely. My sister came over and babysat me today so we had a good chat and a cry and then we went over to the cemetery to see Bobbie. The bereavement MW has phoned back and she is coming to visit next week so I can talk everything through, so I'm feeling a bit less fretful and alone now. Just nervous about what the consultant will tell us tomorrow.

I have now got what appears to be fertilish pant snot, but a - OPK. Only CD9 though so probably got a few days build up still.

I can't remember nickster - how long is your LP normally?

Temp back up this morning and higher thanit has been al cycle(annoyed at yesterday's discarded temp - has disrupted the nice neat post-ov pattern) here www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2de1f3
At 14DPO I did expect it to fall. No sign of AF either!!!

Cramps have subsided slightly, and are more like gurgling sensations at the very pit of my stomach. Boobs are still big & sore, still have backache at the lower part of my back.
Felt a bit urgh again this morning, but soon perked up and wolfed down my lunch!
Oh, and (TMI) I have had loads of watery & creamy CM over the last 2 days, so much that I have to keep nipping to the loo thinking that AF has arrived.

I wish it was the weekend, so I'd know either way.

grrr http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2de1f3

OMG - www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2de1f3

Hmm, just looked at my old charts and I always seemed to have 3-4 days of watery/EWCM and ovulate on the last day, so I guess that means it's likely to be CD12/CD13 this month. So Saturday/Sunday. Which could be a late August baby

Watch This Space. All is crossed. (Apart from legs)

ooh IfatFirst it looks really good! Really hope this is it for you.

The only time I had lots of CM in the LP was when I was pregnant so it might be a sign.
