anyone want to join me with temping while ttc??????????

[trace2]

i have been doing it for a few months now, it would be good to compare with others who do this

oops dont spot

I do this every month trace you know me
I got teh tests but cannot bring up the courage to test as abfn would send me downwards.
So....
maybe tomorrow
Or def friday if no af...

lol, test when your ready, we are all here for you!

Hi just tpopping in to say I was 36.6 again this morning . spotting very very slight this am, I sahll see what the day brings

36.6 still sounds high though - so it's confusing that you are spotting. hope you're ok

I think I wil wait to see if I get the 18 highs then test.
does anyone else spot at the beginning? this is quite unusual for me. Does your temp dip on the days you are spotting or when AF comes in full force?

Early this yr I started spotting before AF 1-2 days earlier and my temp did not dip until day of actual af.
How many highs have you got peachy?
Agree with trace seems quite high still...
here is hoping x x xx

For the last 3 or so cycles I have had spotting the evening/afternoon before full AF. I had the temp dip on the day of the spotting.

Thanks for your answers I'm now on CD 30.it's just my luck that all this faffing has happend on the cycle I decided to take a break from temping isn't it!. I'm just using a CM chart and have been scribbling on it the last week.(from day 23)
From what I think was peak day (CD 15) I am now 15 DPO.
I'm still trying to be realistic and aware that there may be reasons why AF is delaying, the weather is so humid here, That I have been a bit (but not too much) stressed at work due to doing no paperwork in the holidays. This week is a busy one in about half an hour I have to go into central London to present a course on drama and SEN (which I have just cobbled together from the last one I did)!
We are also out twice this week (gadding about town - culture vulture- me)
could I also be a bit subconsciously stressed about the 3 pregnant women in school and obviously wanting this for myself?
I haven't mentioned anything to DH about this at all and I am determind to wait until saturday to Test then it will be 5 days after my latest AF date- 28 days unless she decides to turn up.
love to all and thanks again

ok I'm 8dpo now, so coming into the really difficult time. How are you all and your temps today?
Peachygirl - hope the trip in to london last night wasn't too stressful with all the rain. a couple of tube stations were close near me so that made it all pandemonium. Are you still spotting?
Piffle & Trace what are your temps?

Peachy hope today brings good news for you honey.
Ruble I am on 12dpo and I'm not convinced its any easier now
I love/hate the 2ww, it could be so good, but arrgh it never bloody is for me!
In one more poss 2 days I should know for sure
My temp is same as yesterday and day before steady 5/10ths (in Fahrenheit) over coverline
Am going to be knicker watchign today for spotting which usually occurs 12/13 dpo

arggggggggghhhh , feel really sore, like an ache in my pelvis area, so maybe clomid is making af very painful. on day 12dpo same as Piffle , even though am only on cycle day23 its couse i ovulated early!. my temps was 36.8 but had a restful night because of pain, so maybe its wrong reading.

peachy hope af stayed away hum!

Piffle, when you gona tast? over the cover line is good

rubles, so you could ovulate any time now

I've had insomnia the last few nights, if I sleep badly it causes lower temps for me, my temps are lower than in other cycles infact the whole pattern is different - I wonder if it s to do with having one tube, maybe oving from each side, makes my luteal phase different
Who knows
I could test but will not test until 16dpo

HI all thanks for nice thoughts. I'm still spotting. I was 36.5 this morning.
I too had a terrible night I know I was awake at 3.00 this morning!
I think it doesn't help that I am turning over all the possibilities in my head, (I'm sure you all know how it is)
Part of me really wants to test as there are several people on here who have had results at less DPO than me but I think waiting for the temps is the best thing. At the very least it enables me to know what level of 'protection' I need to wear.
Roubles, the trip into london was OK . I think I was lucky as I wasn't really caught in the rain and my course seemed to be well recieved. I'm back again tonight to the opera (Ooh get her!)
'Nixon in china' so a bit of east versus west etc will take my mind off it all (DH is a politics lecturer by the way- part of the reason for going)
I've been trying to drink lots too as quite worried that if I did test I wouldn't have enough wee!- although wouldn't want to dilute it
Fingers crossed for everyone I really feel well supported by you all, Thank you (Whatever the outcome is)

Hi peachy

Sorry to crash this thread - how many DPO are you?

16

How exciting - are you going to test in two days?

peachy like you I hardly slept last night.
I'm only 12 dpo and this is why I do month on month off temping as it just takes me over
I feel that I cannot keep doing it this way.
It's just so soul taking.
I have started getting all the PMT signs now so think I'm out in the next day or two
I'll live vicariously through peachy and trace

omg , this is awful, i too think am out got really bad af signs now, mainly pains its bloodt killing me, i really hope you too are not out

trace :( hoping the old hag stays away for you xx

can I crash briefly :)

peachy, when I was pg with ds I spotted lightly for one day and spotted with lots of cm for another day. Trace, when I had this spotting I also had excrutiating af-like cramps, in fact was sure they were af pains so took nurifen (well I was bleeding so had no reason to think it wasn't af). so ... there's hope for both of you yet - don't give up hope. Peachy wait as long as possible before testing.

minni crash over now :)

thanks everyone, like we said weve all been here befor, wishing and hoping, but ive never been like this befor, and i know am not pg, it must be all the excitment of ovulating lol

wannabe I am heeding your wise words!!!

Another crash - good luck Trace & Peachy. Sending luck vibes your way (but they'll reach Peachy first as she lives nearer to me).

I've got my pre af complexion break out now :(
Bang on time
Bet I start on tomorrow.
Grrrr
