Looks like all the Monday testers were knocked off the bus by mean old AF before they got a chance to test. I'm just back to take my name off the list. Good luck to the rest of you. Hope the BFP list grows fast.

Just popped back to take myself off the list as I am on the July plane with a wine.

DeeLite · 27/09/2011 08:55

Sorry Floralflora - just realised that in copying your list, I also copied the last line of your post!

Readynow · 27/09/2011 13:04

Hello to newbies! Am very confused about my temps as very erratic & worried this means I have problems with ovulation! I know I know it is irrational but I just can't stop obsessing!! Does anyone else who temps get erratic temps throughout their cycle even though the EWCM & positive OPK points to ovulation?

milk · 27/09/2011 14:28

My period is due on Sunday, and 2bh I really do not feel pregnant :(

When my period arrives, I'm pigging out on Ben and Jerry's!!! lol

Discolite · 27/09/2011 18:38

Hello again everyone.

GTR - did the temperature drop stay today or has it gone back up again?

Prunella, I only get sore nipples when I ovulate but I think that I ovulated on Sunday and no sore nipples yet! I do love the unpredictable nature of the menstrual cycle (not)

Readynow - in my extensive (ok, four months) knowledge of charting I've only noticed erratic temps when the mornings became less light and I started waking up later. They miraculously got back to normal when I set a 5am (shudder) alarm on my phone. Are you taking your temperature at the same time each day? I''ve also found that a proper boozeathon (more than two glasses of wine) also makes my temperature spike.

I'm sitting here glad that I've ovulated but pissed off that my DP and I managed to do the deed on 8 of the 9 days prior to ovulation...the day off being the crucial day before ovulation! ARRRGH! Oh well. We also did it the day of ovulation and the day after, so now have retired tiredly from the sex marathon.

Good luck to all those boarding the July plane!

Rusulka · 27/09/2011 18:41

2DPO and going nuts.

One of the mums at the primary school I work at says her son (in one of my classes) is a fertility charm- all his teachers, assistants etc. get pregnant within X amount of time. Find myself hovering near him with no suitable explanation, lol.

Need all the help we can get!

Readynow are you taking your temp at the same time every day? If you take it at different times that can make it change a lot.

Discolite · 27/09/2011 18:48

Rusulka, can you try and arrange a transfer of your fertility charm pupil to my secondary school please?! Ok, ok, he's probably about half the size of my pupils and may just stand out but I too feel in the need of a little luck!

GTR2882 · 27/09/2011 19:11

Disco - went back up today!!!! Thought I might have a faint positive but not sure if it came up within the time limit so might be an evap - although it does appear to have colour!! I'm also feeling very wet and my cervix is low and really soft (almost squishy) and I had some EWCM (never had this before!) but not sure if that is just a sign of impending AF!

Discolite · 27/09/2011 20:35

Well GTR, I don't want to say 'OMG yr like so definitely pregnant!!!' but who knows, where there is no AF there is still hope! It's got to be your month at some point, right?

I'd try another test in a couple of days...good luck!

GTR2882 · 27/09/2011 20:39

Indeed!!! Hope the hag stays well away!! I'd it's not this month, there is always next month :)

Prunella79 · 27/09/2011 21:29

Ah ha thanks Disco that puts a whole new light on matters, but probably means i missed the boat with SWI at the right time sadly. Still i'd be so pleased to see any return of AF, that at least it would be a positive move in the right direction even if i've missed this month.

Fx for you still GTR

sorry to hear so many people packing up and leaving for the July bus but then again i've heard it's a pretty cool place to hang out, maybe see you there

Readynow · 28/09/2011 08:04

Thanks Rulska & Discolite. I do take it at the same time 5 out of the 7 days but I do sometimes have quite restless sleep & at the weekends do partake in an alcoholic beverage or 2!! Must be more disciplined I guess next month if AF doesn't stay away!!
Discolite Am very impressed with the amount of SWI going on! . If only my DH had your partners stamina!!

Readynow · 28/09/2011 08:05

Sorry to spell your name completely wrong Rusulka!! I'm still half-asleep!

sweetpb · 28/09/2011 11:12

pfft, well the internet jobbies arrived today, had put a pot of fmu away just incase they arrived ;) the pg one was a BFN and the ovulation one had a faint line, who knows when i will be due on so half tempted to continue using them to see what happens, also got a basal thermometer with them so will have to learn what the different temps etc mean!

P x

Prunella79 · 28/09/2011 17:01

How soon after ovulation do people start experiencing pre AF symptoms? maybe a strange question but i've meagre experience of real periods.

Based on Discolite's suggestion that sore nipples are a symptom of ovulation, i should be about 3dpo but i've been feeling really nauseous all day especially when i bend over - it's a familiar feeling but i can't quite put my finger on it - maybe it is a pre AF symptom i last had when i was a teenager?

Rusulka · 28/09/2011 17:05

sweetpb I would pee on the internet cheapie ovulation sticks every day, and take your temp every day too, just so you can start getting the hang of it. When I first got my internet cheapies I was past CD14 so waited- but then AF was a week late, so who knows, I might have ovulated later, but wasn't POAOS so didn't know. It's good to have all the info you can!

I'm 3dpo and tapping feet impatiently.
This morning DH's back hurt too much for him to roll over and turn the alarm off, so I had to do it- then realised I hadn't taken my temp so was v. annoyed. Don't know if the temp I've taken is accurate now.

Men!

GTR2882 · 28/09/2011 17:10

Rusulka - did you get out of bed or just simply reach over? You will prob be ok - every morning i have to reach over to the bed side table to get my thermometor! As long as you did not stand up, have a drink etc etc then you should be ok! :)

LydiaTheTattoedLady · 28/09/2011 18:06

Prunella79 That's not a symptom I recognise. Nausea has occasionally got me during AF but only on the day before or the day it starts. Indeed, it's only the few days before AF is due that I get ANY symptoms at all - which is WAY past ovulation, unless you have an ultra short luteal phase. Everyone's different though and it may be that if you're not used to the hormonal changes (or your body is working itself out) it is reacting to the hormonal changes that undoubtedly DO go on just after ovulation. Not saying it couldn't be something else tho ;)

Everyone Else Just DPO Now all the excitement is over....I can't believe we have to wait 2 flipping weeks. So Boring.

Does anyone have any tips for serving the time on the 2WW Block? It's my first experience of this and, as I am NOT a patient person.
I know the chances aren't great (so trying to be realistic - it's our first month of trying) but can't help getting crazily excited at times which will only lead to major disappointment. GRRRRR

Rusulka · 28/09/2011 20:35

GTR I couldn't lean over him, he would have screamed. I had to get out and walk round, then I climbed back in for my 10min 'snooze'. Grr.

I just hope tomorrow's is the same level. Don't want any dips in temp for 2-4 days, and then no more after that!

Will just have to wait and see.

Lydia my first cycle ttc was a nightmare in the 2ww as I wasn't working. Things are going quicker now that I am. Try to fill any spare time you have by keeping busy. I'm going to be planning Christmas presents and food, and decorating the house for Hallowe'en. Also gardening. And at the end of that if I have a spare 5 minutes for a scratch, I'll probably be browsing articles on the internet or have my head in a book.

mrsmellow · 29/09/2011 08:41

I'm out for this month ladies, BFN, followed promptly (in an extremely annoying fashion by AF - I'm sure I had more preamble before I went on the pill decades ago!)... Good luck to those on 2ww!

Sorry about AF for those leaving the bus. I am just in the 2ww & if past cycles are anything to go by I expect AF (If I am not lucky enough to get a BFP that is) on 9th October. Hope we had SWI on the right days - it was certainly around my positive OPK & EWCM time but my temps are a little erratic so I don't know exactly if ov happened when I hope it did.

needinstructions · 29/09/2011 12:07

Am going crazy waiting here. I've had a couple of BFNs but tested stupidly early so it's not really surprising. I'm trying to justify it as this is the last time we'll be TTC so might as well indulge myself? But it's annoying me now - grrrr.

On the plus side, I've got a major stress coming up at the end of next week on something unconnected, and this 2WW business is great for taking my mind off that ;-)

Rusulka · 29/09/2011 18:40

Readynow your AF is due the same day as mine. FX for a BFP for both of us!
