That's it really. I'm CD 6, having red days, planning my BD-ing & wandering if anyone else is in the same boat as me...?

Hi Norms sorry to hear about AF. It does look like you and I are on similiar cycles as I had AF turn up Saturday CD26. Was hoping the Christmas festivities would work some magic but nevermind! Off to the local Hospital for some tests in a couple of weeks as TTC 2 years now! Persona hasn't picked up ovulation the last two months so a little worried as I know it worked OK for the friend that I got it from, as she has DS2 14 mths as a result!

Sorry to hear about AF NN, you never know though it may not be.
Where do you get your test sticks from? I need to order more and didn't know if everywhere was much the same. I used Access Diagnostics last time and they were pretty quick to deliver.

Hi Ladies

Sorry i don't seem to get much chance to post these days. I hope you don't mind if i nip on now & again.

Sorry to hear about the AFs. Norms i would wait until you get a proper flow before resetting. Same thing has happened to me the last 2 months.

I have been getting my sticks from Access diagnostic too. Everywhere seems about the same.

CD10 for me did a test today got a red & there was a faint 2nd line so ov must be approaching, although usually cd 13/14.

Good Luck to us all

Hi Norms - that's fab! Fingers crossed it really is a BFP! If so, congratulations to you

Congrats Norms!

Love a

JAG123 · 10/01/2006 19:33

CONGRATULATIONS NORMS! I hope that you have a happy & healthy pregnancy.

Amandeep Don't think that it really matters too much if you miss a test. It might just give you a few extra red days. Don't know much about the boy thing but have seen a few threads about it. I think it might be on ov day or after but not sure.

Hope everyone else is ok

Oh Normsnockers, I hope it is a BFP!! We need some more good news on this thread.
Not great for me. I don't think I am going to ov this month again. CD16. Have done all my persona tests now and have invested in an OPK to see if it is a bit later this month, or not at all. Am not feeling very fertile anyway.

Well done Norms!!! I've just posted a message for you on the August thread. Congratulations. Good luck everyone, you WILL get there

3catstoo · 11/01/2006 12:46

That's wonderful news NN, Many Congratulations. All the best for a healthy and happy pregnancy. Any ideas on due dates yet?

CD22 for me and I had a bit of a shock this morning when I discovered a light AF. It's only 8 days since (first) egg sign. I will wait and see what develops before resetting the Persona. I must re order my test sticks quicker than I thought. My cycle seems completely messed up. I think I am getting too stressed over having another baby and talking DH around to the idea.

Hi all

3catstoo - Is it possible it could be an implantation bleed as it is early or is it a normal AF.

Mojo & Strike - Hope you are both feeling ok & not too sick.

Norms - Looks like Santa left you the best pressie ever.

cd13 for me & got egg this morning but same old problem we bd on Tue but i just know DH is going to be too tired tonight. Although this time i haven't told him what stage i am at so he doesn't feel forced.

Take Care All

3catstoo · 12/01/2006 14:47

Hi Jag,
I wish it was but I haven't persuaded DH yet so pretty unlikely.

Last month I had a bit of spotting around day 29ish then got full AF on day 32. As it was only cd22 yesterday and I had egg on cd15, I thought it was a bit early even to be spotting a couple of days before AF.
Nothing today though!
Just have to wait and see when AF will arrive in full. These things are sent to try us...apparently!
Without Persona I would be in a complete mess. I always thought that OV occured 14 days before start of next AF.

It's great to see someone has had success with Persona on here.
Here's wishing everyone that same success.
3cats.

Im on day 32 here and due AF on Saturday.I havent had any of the normal AF symptoms yet although Im getting sore nipples.
Not entirely convince that I could have concieved though as we didnt BD enough during ovulation.I had a lot of upset at the time.

Congrats to Norms and baby dust to everyone else trying

Pinewood · 13/01/2006 14:50

Hi Shanks fingers cross for you... I fell for DS1 when I had loads of bad stuff going on couldn't believe my DH had been anywhere near me that month but he obviously had ! Good luck everyone CD6 today so first stick pee'd on for this month!
