Sorry you feel :( mrsden I will keep fx for you xx

teds fx crossed too!

Hope you feel better vintage

Hello everyone else!

Thanks weimy I've managed to convince myself that the reason I'm suffering so badly when DH is fine today is because I'm clearly pg! AF is due Sunday.

essence thanks for your response. I'll keep an eye on that for future charts (not much to compare to with first full chart this month). Well done for your exercise!!!

MrsDen It seems you're in sync with me and Truffkin! Too novice to guide you on your temps though....

weimy knock them dead and knock yourself pregnant! . Seriously, I hope they get it sorted quick, noting worse than living in anticipation for too long.

Teds FX for you!

Vintage have a on me!

Over here, on queue the spotting has started,shortly followed by mental meltdown, hideous headaches, bloating like a balloon and monster cramps. Oh, don't you just love being a woman!

Ps. Do we like the new look FF?

Oh, and MrsDen - IT IS RUBBISH, this whole waiting game. I kept thinking why could i have not had ONE thing happen to me easily in life, i always seem to have to do it the tough way, but then i try and remember that 6-12 months is normal for our age (not that it really helps on the bad days)

I'm loving the new FF, although it took me a while to find out where my home page web address was for links! essence I'm slightly jealous of your personal trainer, the most I get is DH encouraging me to have a quick run round the block!! Mrsden fingers crossed for you, without getting your hopes up too much,when I got PG in October, my temps were only about 20c above the cover line :) My temps this month have taken a huge dip over the last two days, I'm back down to my coverline www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2de1f3

thanks scrummy x

Ifatfirst could it be an implantation dip?

essence you are soooo good getting a trainer!

here is the link to my chart, not ov'd yet but should soon if my body behaves www.fertilityfriend.com/home/weimy

Ifatfirst - my temps have take a bit dip too... chart here. I am hoping that it might be an implantation dip but I suspect it is vain hope.

oooh interesting Auntie here's hoping!

I also have really low temperatures. Just think that is how I work!

Morning ladies. Firstly, apologies that I've gone quiet. The last few days up to AF was really stressing me out so I decided to lurk but not post until I had news, good or bad.

Well.......um......I got bfp this morning!!!

www.fertilityfriend.com/home/MrsArch

My temps have been all over the place this cycle and ff thought I ov on cd 19 and so today is dpo 14 (my LP is 11 or 12). If I ov on cd 22 (possibly as the spike on that day is due to a massive drinkathon ) I am dpo 11 today.

Anyway, my temps had dropped in the past few days but then soared yesterday so I POAS. Negative but there was a faint line after 20mins - assumed it must be an evaporation line as it was clear.
Today temps down but not below coverline, so I POAS again and a faint pink line appeared within a few mins. So, I guess I'm pg!

Can't believe it (and trying not to get hopes up in case it's not a keeper). Going to buy some digital tests today.
DP went a bit quiet - he was like this with DD - pleased but he worries about money (me too - god knows how we'll afford 2 nursery places!!).
I won't disappear ladies, I know how truly awful it is to get AF every cycle and wishing you all the very best of luck.

It took us a year to conceive DD without charting and 6 months of properly trying with charting to conceive No 2 (I hope - fingers crossed for sticky bean!)

The only thing I did differently this cycle was relax, get away for a bit, get a baby sitter in and shared a bottle or two of wine with DP at a nice restaurant. Plus managed to swi while DD slept in the next bed in the hotel room!!! So, all in all a real family affair.

I have to say though that acupuncture has really helped me to relax.

OH MY GOODNESS MrsA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry could not help but stalk you - have looked at your chart yesterday and was secretly holding my breath for you!!!! EEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

So pleased.

Come join us on the grads thread, whenever you feel ready. I know it's a daunting time.

But,,, YAY!

This is a photo of my internet cheapy

it's definitely a bfp yes?

Yep, yep, yep. Definitely a positive!

I knew this would happen for you eventually.

You must be so over the moon!

mrsarch - wow - ~~~CONGRATULATIONS~~~~

thats def a BFP. Your chart is so interesting because of drop - obviously making you think AF was on the way - and then whoosh lol.

Mrs Arch that's lovely news -congrats!

Has cheered me up a little as my temps dropped the morning and I'm spotting. On the plus side I now don't have to have the conversation with DH that goes something like "You know how you were mortified about wanking into a jar whilst in a hospital, well turns out you didn't need to do that at all because I was actually pregnant at the time..."

Ho Hum. Am booked in for blood tests on Friday so hopefully we'll know where we are a little bit more in a few weeks time.

mrsA I am so so chuffed for you!! That is most definitely a BFP!!

Yay mrsA!!! :) Congratulations!

I had dip today too so have new hope :)

Should be working atm, can't focus. Am delighted but also bloody terrified (esp after DD's birth!!!)

Yes MrsA Fantastic, congratulations
Do you have any symptoms, did you suspect you were pregnant?

I am 15dpo today, no sign of AF yet but sure it will be here tomorrow, I feel a bit AFey. www.fertilityfriend.com/home/mrsden

Newgold up to dpo 11 I was still hopeful, then on dpo12 it plummeted and I said to DP, well that's me out again and i started to feel faint cramps, then when it rocketed on dpo13 I didn't know what to think. I was worried that I've had a stinking cold in the past few days, so that was messing with my temps.

DP and I are going away overnight for my birthday at the end of March - the first time we've ever left DD with someone else (she's 2.5) and I was thinking, well at least I'll be able to have a few drinks...mmm..champagne.....I'm not complaining but I think it really hasn't sunk in yet.

Mrsden I truly have had zero symptoms. The odd bit of cramping, the odd achey boob but I've had those before in bfn cycles. This cycle has been so busy at work for me, I also forgot to drink pineapple/grapefruit juices at appropriate times and DP and I forgot to use pre-seed! Go figure!
I have still taken my pre-natal vits, Vit B complex and Omega oils but have been doing that for 3/4 months.
Next cycle I was going to try activated Vit B. It's more expensive but it's the pure form of Vit B6. The B6 you get in normal tubs needs to be activated by the liver which doesn't always work apparently.

God - I need to remind myself of what I can/can't eat/do. It's been a while! Can I even take Vit B complex still?

mrsa that's fab news!!! I have been secretly stalking you and hoping for your BFP. Sooo pleased for you xxx

Yay MrsA!

So pleased for you. :) :)

;)

How great to see good news and a chart with a green line! Love the photo, how I long to see a stick like that in my hand Congratulations!

Congrats MrsA !

Sorry not keeping up v well at the moment - life a bit hectic. Hopefully I'll be back to catch up properly later in the week!
