sevendwarves - I had exactly the same thing last week. And it's never happened to me before either. I think this TTC business drives our bodies mental!Confused

Hello bus team! Just added in my stats too...
I've started pooting now (cheapie internet sticks) and nothing is showing even though on my iPhone app I should be ovulating and I have a bit of EWCM...how reliable are the sticks and is it best to go with them or the EWCM?

Good luck all!

Daiso · 10/03/2011 08:28

WHY does this feel like the longest wait EVER??!! AF due in 6 days, and am approx 8dpo so am going to have to wait until AF due really before testing aren't i?!!!

spidookly · 10/03/2011 08:54

googie I'd trust your body ahead of the sticks, so go with ewcm before what the sticks are saying. But I'm neither a pooter nor a cervix-fumbler, so maybe someone else will have better advice :)

Daiso - test on St. Patrick's Day! An auspicious day :)

Iggly · 10/03/2011 09:50

googie get SWI if there's EWCM! the sticks tell you that you've had a surge and could ovulate imminently. ECWM arrives just before ovulation too. You want some swimmers in there waiting for the egg (more chance).

Hi all I've been AWOL - mainly because I MN on my phone so harder to keep track. Hope everyone is well. I've added my stats - weimy you're my 2ww buddy!

I've no idea when or if I've ovulated. Not using sticks, no sign of EWCM so DTD every other day if we manage it. Haven't quite so far! At certain times of the month I think I really want to get the BFP. other times I think one month of delay isn't so bad. But as it takes longer and longer it'll drive me mad, I know. Have ordered some cheap pee sticks Grin

googietheegg · 10/03/2011 13:04

OK, so I'll say 'DH we need to SWI because Iggly says trust EWCM over pooting'... Wink

weimy · 10/03/2011 13:06

iggly we will hold off poas together!!!!! Grin

Daiso · 10/03/2011 13:20

Wonder if i'll be the first one to crack test?! Trying to hold out until 16th but may do a FR test before. Even tho i'm trying to tell myself i'm not - i don't want to wait for AF to rear her ugly head - i suppose i could say it's putting me out of my misery. BUT will keep everything crossed ( including legs Wink )

Went into Boots today as was told FR on BOGOF but not anymore Sad

Dawnyann · 10/03/2011 13:21

Hi there i'm relativley new here so no idea what that post above means sorry haha. but wondered if I could jump on this bandwagon of an xmas baby.

Got my AF on tuesday 8th which from what ive worked out was a 26 day cycle last month but this month i too am gonna get an ovulation kit to help me along as this is gonna be the last change to conveive a 2011 baby!!!

Good luck all xx

Only test if you'll take a BFN as conclusive. If you're not going to believe a "no" answer (and at this stage you shouldn't) then there's no point in asking the question :)

Anyone else in the OVing days?

I don't know what's going on this month, but I'm not sure I've ov'ed, have had pain on both sides and now feel like my womb is about to fall out.

Still, at least the signs are that it's the business end of the months, so the I in SWI becomes more important.

Daiso · 10/03/2011 13:34

spidookly

you are absolutely right!! Enjoy your SWI - ( and sorry to hear about feeling of womb falling out!)

sevendwarves · 10/03/2011 14:03

Well AF is back, and I've also just realised that I didn't have any period pains this month, WTF?

Youremindmeofthebabe · 10/03/2011 14:21

sevendwarves I quite often get no period pain until after AF has started, and then it kicks in with a vengeance. Tis very annoying. You have my sympathies. Sorry she got you.

MumTumWanted · 10/03/2011 14:28

hi ladies

am going to jump on board with you as just fell off the november bus.... Im TTC #2 after a mc over xmas. This is my last chance to concieve since my wedding is booked for April next year in Mexico so i cant be heavily pregnant or with a new born. If i fall now at least the bean will be 3 months old ! Fingers crossed for all on board and lets hope this is a lucky bus

Iggly · 10/03/2011 14:31

googie Grin yep SWI cos Iggly says so!

weimy how long do you think we'll hold out til?!!!

weimy · 10/03/2011 15:24

Spidookly i am in the ov days I think!

iggly I am going try to wait till she is late :)

welcome mumtum !!! fx for this time :)

sevendwarves · 10/03/2011 17:35

mumtum sorry to see you here, in a nice way! I've still been lurking on the November bus and can't believe how unlucky it's been.

youremindme AF started 4 days ago but only lasted 2 days, then nothing yesterday and back again today, that's why I'm so confused. It's not necessarily odd but odd for me IYSWIM.

spidookly · 10/03/2011 19:27

Ow, ow, ow

I seem to be releasing a hen's egg.

Sore!

Will have to swi when discomfort passes.

Try to create some kind of chicken baby :o

cookiemonster100 · 10/03/2011 20:00

Hey all,

I am on my peak and dh has decided he does not want SWI tonight. Thanks for that. We have only SWI a couple of times in the past week so pretty sure there will be no x'mas baby for me.

Going to act my revenge by kicking him off the telly as he is hogging it watching football. Pah!
This ttc is too much of a rollercoaster sometimes
spidookly - yes we are bus buddies!! I am currently ov and by the sounds of it you are too!!! Good luck xx
