Charters Anonymous Volume 7. Charting and shagging our way to victory!

[digitalgirl]

Previous thread here

Join us in egg-hunting, cm analysing, chart-stalking and plotting our way to a bfp. Or just generally losing the plot. All welcome!

Thanks for the encouragement. Planning to lure DH to bed tonight so he doesn't think I'm only after his sperm! .
It'd be bloody ironic if it did result in a Bfp considering last month we dtd cd7,10,11,12,13,15,16,17 and it was bfn!
Last month FF moved my ovulation day between 11 and 13 four times! If no not this month, I may invest in some digital opks.
Hey we ovulated around the same tome then! When is af due for you?

Well lets hope Sod's Law kicks in this cycle for you!

I have a ridiculously long 16 day luteal phase so AF not due till August 11. Sometimes its 15 days. But I will be testing at 12dpo on Aug 6, because if it's a BFN I want to stop taking the steroids I'm on. A BFN means I'll also want to get the drugs I need for next cycle's follicle stimulation - which will hopefully have me ovulating (at great financial expense) earlier in the cycle. CD31 is far too exhausting a wait. It was CD34 last cycle, so only a marginal improvement.

My af should be due 10th August but that's based on an average luteal phase that includes a chemical pregnancy so a luteal phase of 19 days. Others have been 13 and two 15. This is the 6th cycle I've charted but had one anovulatory and one where I didn't temp enough the first week cos I was on a boozy holiday!
Let's hope we both got our bfps around the same time!

Hey, how is everyone?

Hi faith Having a good day today. I definitely prefer the first half of the 2ww to the second half. It's way too early for symptoms so I can delude myself that I'm in with a chance. By the second half I'm looking for signs of implantation and by 10dpo if I don't have my tell-tale implantation cramping and bloating then I'm convinced it's over.

FF has decided that I am 5dpo but I'm erring on the side of 4dpo.

How are you? Treating dh to some sff to prove you're not just after his goods?

You know I tried but he's been complaining of pain previously tested look to be psychological pain so no joy. Am on night out with work - caution thrown to wind during 2ww cos seriously doubt am upduffed this month- he'll be too sleepy when I get home! Maybe tomorrow....

hello, cd9 and i have finally managed to sleep enough and also remember to record a temperature! yay. it only took one month off to get totally out of the habit.

that's about all at this stage. :)

hope 2ww isn't too stressful digital, DH thinks I'm a bit nuts because i can't just wait and see i think. i tried to explain that no matter how hard you try, it's impossible to ignore symptoms. (imaginary or otherwise )

hope you had a good night out have.

Bump to keep us on page one! What happened? There were loads if us at one point!
Had a fab night thanks, rolled in at 2! Didn't bother temping in the morning.what with the bottle of wine consumed and disturbed (always sleep badly when tipsy) sleep. Had dipped but back up now....[[

Had a fun weekend, dsis and I went ro see our Grandma for the day. He was very cute and she loved the visit :)
Managed to entice DH into some swithouti tonight so all round marvellous!
jaggy do you work shifts? Hope ate things?
How are you digital?
Anyone else lurking? AuntieD?

Glad you had a good weekend faith and yay for the sff! You really do love your dh .

Was also drinking yesterday but for some reason temp didn't seem that high this morning. Having a bit of cramping now so I think maybe I'm gearing up for another surge of progesterone (did this last cycle) - expecting higher temps tomorrow. I may be completely wrong though. Even if I'm right I've learnt not to equate my tendency to go triphasic with a pregnancy. Oh to not have this knowledge...

Hello ladies. I am still here - just.

Generally feeling a bit pissed off, fed-up and feeling fatalistic. Feeling like everyone I know is pregnant but me - have just found out that my cousin and his wife are pregnant again. We have been TTC since they were pregnant with their first.

In other news. Today is moving day. We are moving from Leeds to Guernsey. It's been pretty stressful and I am shattered, which is one of the reasons I have not been on here!

Yup, all the charters are being as bit too anonymous right now

I've not got much to say though as I am only just at the SWI stage for now...

Hey auntD sorry you're feeling fatalistic. I'm awaiting more pg announcements as it's all been rather quiet on that front lately. I hope moving day isn't too stressful but provides a suitable distraction for you.

My chart isn't looking particularly hopeful at the moment. I'm only 7dpo today, but temps haven't been that high compared to other cycles. Not massively worried, but obviously hoping to see a further rise over the next few days. And bracing myself for the disappointment when it doesn't. Boo.

Waves at jaggy and faith. Think the others have deserted us!

I get you auntied, sometimes it'a just overwhelming and a bit too much isn't it?
I hope the move goes well.
I'm more relaxed because we didn't really try this month. Just casually checking my temp and cm. I sound super cool don't I?! I did see a temp rise this morming but a) it was warm and b) I had a couple of drinks yesterday!

Oops meant to say digital don't lose hope just yet!

Hi, still lurking....given up on daily temping though. I take just enough to confirm it's down and then up again. Using OPK's which with my regular cycles seems to work for me. Had my tests back from hospital and it's all come back normal. Got a referral for private clinic, so we'll see what our options are. If I was younger, I'd probably just wait, but with my advanced years I'm concerned that whilst things ar ok now (although no BFP in sight) waiting could change things....anyway, that's me.

auntie let's hope it's a new home - new baby . Guernsey sounds lovely!

Hi to everyone else! I hope we get our BFP's soooooon

Cd1 - again for me, here we go again.

Hiya scrummy good news all looks ok! Keep smiling.
duck that sucks :( kick the old girl to the kerb. Better luck this month.
I'm cd20 of a 24-29 cycle. Very cynical about success this month (despite the positive thread!) so really just looking forward to getting af over with, getting smashed at my birthday party then.swi with a vengeance!

Sorry duck

have your plans sounds a gooden!

faith your chart is looking rather promising, despite your reservations on your chances.

My chart is looking rather dull in comparison. Which is odd for me as it normally drifts up much higher than it has been - even on non pregnant cycles. I was thinking that it should do anyway with all these hot nights we've been having. The only thing different i did this cycle was glug that Chinese herbal stuff pre-ovulation. I didn't think it would have a bearing on my progesterone though.

I know what you mean about my chart! Still a tad reserved I suppose, dunno. Don't feel pregnant but then I've never been pregnant so how would I know?!
digital I worry about the outside temp, window open/ clothes, varying amount of pajamas...but hey your chart is still on the up :) let's stay positive!

Hello charters :) I didn't know that there was a thread dedicated to the data-lovin' that is FF

I did a bit of lurking on their forums but the tickers were giving me a squint. Mind if I cosy in here instead? I'm on a MN bus but I don't think anyone there shares my Joy Of Graphs.

I'm ttc#2, second cycle charted and I'm currently 11dpo. AF due Friday but I'm not really feeling that this is my month. Not sure how I share my chart although is it a little forward for a new joiner to bare their chart so soon?

Welcome spout feel free to share your chart. In fact, if you do a bit of searching you'll find a thread with just our charts, so feel free to add yours there too. If you go to sharing on FF and home page setup it's pretty straight forward from there. And you can see MN guide on how to add links to your post below the text box. Let us know if you get stuck.

to everyone else. 6DPO here and feeling super bloated. Otherwise nothing exciting to report....

hello spout. :)

we even have a special chart baring thread, can't link cos I'm on my phone though. it's the charters anonymous mega chart stalking thread if you want to search!

to share you need to go to 'sharing' at the top of the FF page and you can sort out your home page settings and find your chart link.

good luck!

I'm ttc number 2 as well, on month 11 now though, so trying to obsess less about the graphs.
