Thanks getdown. I dIdnt think FF was right but there's just these nagging thoughts in the back of my mind saying 'but what if it's right' and 'when will I OV'. I'm just impatient, I want to see 2 lines on the OV stick and 2 lines in the pg test! Ok rant over. X

Iwish · 12/01/2011 19:09

Hey battery. X post. I'm a bit sulky today, I know I shouldn't be as I probably havnt been trying as long as and havent been through what you ladies have been through. And I know what you mean about 'relax and will happen', it drives me crazy!! Seriously People p* me off with that line! And 'it will happen when the time is right'. Aaargh! You might still be in the running, the little swimmers could have been up there patiently waiting x

batteryhen · 12/01/2011 19:22

iwishI would like to think I am in the running - but we will see! By the way, FF initially thought I had OVd on CD8 after a few random high temps but soon changed its mind when I had a few lower ones, so just keep SWI!! xx

MrsP81 · 12/01/2011 19:24

Hello all! Time for a bit of a catch up I think.

Nice to meet you digitalgirl. I remember you from when I used to just lurk on here.

iwish, I see that your crosshairs are dashed so FF isn?t sure? it doesn?t look like you?ve ovd to me. Keep at the SWI!

MrsA your chart looks lovely and smooth. Acupuncture is on my list of things to try next I think. And I?m glad that you?re feeling a bit more positive today battery, it must be reassuring to have somebody that knows what they?re talking about.

Don?t give up yet tory, its not over until AF arrives. Fingers crossed for you.

It seems like you got plenty of swimmers ready pippa so I wouldn?t worry too much about not SWI-ing on the actual ov day.

Auntied, sorry you?re feeling so down at the moment. I know that 5 months seems like an absolute age (we?ve been trying for 8) but it?s definitely within the realms of ?normal? not to have succeeded by now. Hmmm, perhaps I should listen to my own advice sometimes when I?m ranting about the same thing!

Did you get your +ve OPK yet Terrys? Hope so?

I?m sorry that you?re having a hard time with doctors and things spilt. I really don?t understand the way the world works sometimes.

Yay for LadyG?s scan! V happy for you!

getdown, hope you?re feeling ok. I don?t think I can really tell you off for temping since it was just an accident Grin But you know you shouldn?t really, it will only cause you worry that you don?t need.

And as for me?? no further POAS action yet, as promised. I have symptoms and my temps are good so fingers crossed. I may test again tomorrow. Or Friday. I have an irrational worry that POAS will make it all go wrong.

Smile
TerrysNo2 · 12/01/2011 19:34

cant porperly catch up as on kindle which is rubbish for web but...

just wanted to say that i love it when a plan comes together!! Grin

Iwish · 12/01/2011 19:54

battery I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you :) I will keep SWI. Hope I OV this weekend, the wait is s killer.

Thanks mrsp DP has been informed that it's full speed ahead with SWI haha. And I am impressed that you've not POAS today! You chart does look good so I shall be stalking you.

Ooh terrys what plan has come together?? I'm on iPhone so rubbish for typing on here but havnt got Internet yet!

spilttheteaagain · 12/01/2011 19:57

What is your plan terrys?? I am intrigued!

tory79 · 12/01/2011 20:15

Terrys by plan, do you mean you found a way to sneakily check your cervix whilst in a room of lawyers?? Grin

weimy · 12/01/2011 20:27

Hi all!

Bigs hugs auntiedoris I'm sorry things are so difficult at the moment :( I had a teary session at the counsellors today but sometimes a good old cry really helps.

I think that my opk was showing positive today, so my question is should I SWI tonight? I SWIed yesterday morning how much rest do his swimmers need?

Sorry here is another one, how do I show you guys my chart?

Iwish any sign on the peesticks?

TerrysNo2 · 12/01/2011 20:32

By plan I mean my wonderful really high and slightly open cervix has helped provide me with a lovely dark line on my OPK - yay!!

Did it in the laywers toilets (OPK, not IT), using DH's deodorant cap to pee in and then sat next to my handbag looking at it whilst negotiating documents. Clients must have thought I was very weird, looking in my handbag and coming out with a big grin!! Grin

Gotta go cut DH's hair now so back later.

tory79 · 12/01/2011 20:37

Yay Terrys fab news!! Is 'gotta go cut DH's hair now' code for something else Grin

Weimy, I say definitely do it tonight as well!

Iwish · 12/01/2011 20:41

Hi weimy. No luck on the pee sticks, I expect I will in a few more days (fingers crossed)
I would expect you could SWI for the next few days unless your DP has low sperm count. I read on the Internet the whole resting to replenish the swimmers is rubbish.

Erm I think if you go to 'sharing' and 'home page set up' You just need to set up the charts you want to add to your home page and if you look at the top it gives you you homepage web address. If you copy that address and put then paste in the addres then . Hope that helps?

Iwish · 12/01/2011 20:43

Terrys that's fab. Stuff the hair cut, get SWI!!

Pippaandpolly · 12/01/2011 20:48

Thought I'd share my not too exciting chart and my quite amusing 'symptom' of a giant left boob. Seriously. Giant.

Hi is this a link to my chart? :)

weimy · 12/01/2011 20:50

ohh it is!

Anyway this is my first month and the thermom didnt arrive till day seven so I think it prob looks weird?

Iwish · 12/01/2011 21:02

Giant boob pippa? just the one? Lol

Yey weimy that's your chart. Looks ok, it will start looking more exciting and maybe stalkable after OV. :)

TerrysNo2 · 12/01/2011 21:26

Right hair cut, DH in shower, meeting upstairs in 5 minutes. Wink

Promise I will really catch up after, but you understand that some things come first!! Grin

spilttheteaagain · 12/01/2011 21:34

We understand terrys Wink

Good luck Grin

jaggythistle · 12/01/2011 21:43

Hi all

Still nothing to say cos only on CD7 :)

Boring chart here, no temp for yesterday as I was actually asleep in a chair in DS's room at my usual time. Teething not quite over then...hope he feels better by approximately CD16.

TerrysNo2 · 12/01/2011 22:16

I'm back Blush

Blush Blush as we had to make it quick because neighbours were banging on the ceiling Blush Blush Can't believe I just told you that but I am part humiliated, part proud!! Smile

Right, where was I??

OK LadyG so happy for your scan, I am really pleased for your bean and now it is well on its way!

spilt can't believe they are not treating you better after what you have been through! I actually love the NHS, they are slow for non-emergencies but every time its an emergency they are so responsive. I will not say a bad word against them because when we have needed them (for DS) they have always come through. Maybe go for that private scan spilt, but I reckon you'll have no probs because you have been so sick and that's a surefire sign something is cooking in there!

Pippa I think your chart is quite exciting, nice steady rise!! PS - don't fall to one side! Grin

weimy get SWI-ing NOW!! Grin

MrsP you are our chart stalkee of the week! FX for you.

battery those swimmers could still be good so don't give up.

Hi to jaggy, Iwish, tory, MrsA, Izzy, folicacid, AuntD, GetDown, Digi and anyone else I have forgotten! Smile

Pippaandpolly · 12/01/2011 22:28

Seriously...even DH was amazed. 'Weighing' them with his hands kept him amused for at least 5 minutes.

wonders whether I really need a baby...

Pippaandpolly · 12/01/2011 22:31

Oops, that was meant to be a 'thought' - forgot it would make it bold! Just to highlight my bad grammar and show me up... Blush

Spilt I empathise about the NHS being crass about these things. When I miscarried my GP said he'd cancel my booking in appointment (to be fair he was being nice as I was in tears at the time) but he didn't so I got a 'where were you?' letter. Fingers crossed for you with the private scan.

Folicacid · 12/01/2011 23:28

I am slouched quietly at the back of this thread having realised that I've been taking my temerature wrong, hence why it has been so low.

Blush
AuntieDoris · 13/01/2011 06:13

Folicacid... how do you take your temp wrong? Now I am worried I am doing the same!!!!!
