Morning everyone, you've all been chatty since last night! We spent all evening watching Season 5 of Lost. A bit behind, I know, but we wait for it to come out on DVD and get it through Lovefilm. It's all getting a bit silly now, but DH is determined to finish.
Hi Solars, hope you're getting a bit of time to yourself with all the busy bee stuff. Hope this month on the clomid is better. I hate stressing over ttc, and quite like my phone app that tells me when to SWI, and when to expect AF/test. It means I can forget about all the DPO/CD counts. However, while looking earlier to post on the 10 month + thread I noted?
I'm on CD25, with FF predicting my AF today (however, I think it's wrong, total cycle length is normally 27/28 days). Temps still high this morning at 11DPO, if AF doesn't get me by Sat, I might do a test, as my longest ever LP was 13 days?
raspberry I've got a couple of apps on my phone, the fertility friend one, and one called "OvuView". However, these are both on Android. I'd be surprised if there wasn't a FF one for iPhone though. I would recommend temping, I think it actually makes me less obsessive, as I know when I ovulate (so can relax on the SWI) and I know when AF will start first thing in the morning. The day my temp drops I give myself a lay in and a cuddle, AF will come at some point during that day.
Only once has this varied, where my temp dropped 2 days before AF? I wonder now if that was maybe some kind of chemical pg or something, as I remember it being a heavy AF. Has anyone else had this?
I think next cycle I'll try temping fancily, see if it gives a more stable reading.
Little glad you're feeling a bit better, hope the improvement continues today.
Scream wonderful scan news!
Sweetie I hope you're DH finds out lots of useful info from Dr Google, and becomes as supportive as you need. My DH was very good early on in the TTC, I was Googling things myself and finding out so much. The more I told him that he didn't know, the more interested he became in finding things out for himself! Though he did end up looking up more things like "baby making positions" rather than ovulation timing etc. :)
I blame the government drive to cut down teen pgs for how little real info we're actually given. I thought all it would take was one lot of DTD without a condom and we'd be sorted.
Bean big congrats on the victory with the SA. I'm very impressed. I have a very relaxed and tractable DH, but even he was a little embarrassed/put out at the suggestion his swimmers might not be up to the job. I don't think a woman can really understand the relationship between a man and his bits? Can you not get the pot from the doc for him too?
Popcorn we seem to be cycle buddies.. this cycle also started on Oct 23 for me. Our charts are very different though. Congrats on overcoming the sleepy DH, and for losing weight! Really hope this is your cycle for a BFP. Hope the builders are done quick, and don't cost too much.
Whimsical hope you enjoy your hair cut, and your almost-day-off with the builders. Are you nearly done with all your building work now? Sounds like you should have a lovely new look in your house in time for xmas?
Scrambled surely this is a sign of a BFP, and not AF arriving! You could be working on one of those wonderful sounding "mucus plugs". I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, and brooking real hard. I totally understand not wanting to hope too much though. I love being hopeful for other people, but I find I prefer to be pessimistic for myself.
