good luck jen!

im on cd 27- with af due on friday, it will be here as hubby was away at ov time! its my birthday on sat- so gutted that af is due!

Artoo · 12/10/2005 15:59

I'm on CD17 at the moment, and pretty confused about my cycle this time. All the evidence is that I OV'd on Day 14, which would put me 3dpo, but previous cycles I've OV'd day 17 or 18. However, fertilityfriend hasn't detected the OV yet, as my temperature dropped strangely this morning /shrug.

This cycle is a write-off anyway, as DH is away all week (although if I did OV on Sunday then our BD-ing on Saturday before he went would be better timed than I was expecting it to be, so who knows.

I've done something to my back as well - we did a lot of furniture moving last week, so it must be that. I've been taking Ibuprofen since Sunday, and only read today that you're not supposed to take that when TTC - ooops

Hugs,
Artoo.

Thinking about you Jen, everything crossed!

mumswish · 12/10/2005 16:45

Hiya Girls, I was attatched to you before you merged. Just wanted to pop my head back in again and say hello and also ask you quick question

Has any of you been on the pill and if so how long after you took your last pill did it take for you to start bleeding? I took my last pill 2 weeks ago (yesterday) and still nothing. Its 31 days since the first day of my last af and I'm confused.

Jen1209 · 12/10/2005 17:26

Well (slightly shy and abashed look) I couldn't wait til tomorrow ones and I brought the ones that say you can use at any time if you are late and.................................................................................................................................................. BFP

Oh my god, I can't believe it - I am so scared and excited!!!! Haven't told DP yet, will let him come home (I am v early, left work an hour early) and then tell him!!!! Won't be on for the rest of the evening though ladies as DP needs the computer to work from home.... Hopefully this has started the ball rolling and there will be lots more to join me v shortly!

Jen1209 · 12/10/2005 17:27

hmmm, must be going mad, meant to say "couldn't wait until tomorrow and brought the Clearblue ones...etc" ooops

Oh jen thats brilliant news, A BIG CONGRATULATIONS FROM MOI!!!!!!!!!!

Artoo · 12/10/2005 17:59

Oh Jen, congratulations!

Mumswish, when did you stop taking your Pill? You're not supposed to stop mid packet. I completed my final packet, got my usual withdrawal bleeding, then had a pretty normal 26 (ish) day cycle. However, some women can take a few months to bleed after stopping.

It seems to take a few months for the hormones to fully exit your system, and it seems people have different behaviours during that time.

HTH!
Artoo.

jeni03 · 12/10/2005 20:33

thanks for your welcome

staceym11, DH thinks christmas is early this year because i've told him we're spending 'quality time' together every day this month until af arrives,just in case. I'm sure the novelty will wear off soon!!!!

jeni03 · 12/10/2005 20:35

might need some help with abbreviations (sp?)

staceym11 · 12/10/2005 20:35

yeha my dh thought it was great too, then he realised it was knackering but decided that when i finally am pg he wont get any (didnt with dd as i really went of sex) so hes making the most of it!!!

staceym11 · 12/10/2005 20:36
