Haha, fireman would be good. My H's uniform is blah: suit and tie Smile

I've just picked him up from ebbsfleet after his day in Paris.. How long should I give him to settle in before pouncing?

VJONES1985 · 10/09/2013 20:37

Awful pain right now, low down. Never had it before and I wanna cry. It's cd15 and I think I'm due to ov around now. Getting worried about the pain though.

CoffeeGuzzler · 10/09/2013 20:37

Ha! fireman!!!!
So pleased for you mama.

PurpleGeekyGirl · 10/09/2013 20:43

Wispa enough time to have a shower. No longer lol!

My dp is a musician, channel the inner guitar rock god Wink

PurpleGeekyGirl · 10/09/2013 20:43

Mama if only it were as easy as rabbits to get upduffed!

DisneyDiva87 · 10/09/2013 20:43

Mmmmm.... Fireman.... Hubby is considering a career change maybe I should make a suggestion for him Wink

I had another feel of the old cervix. I definitely felt a dimple but I don't know if that is my cervix open or if I was feeling something else. Felt quite soft but I was so taken with the dimple that I forgot to take note how soft it was. Is it too much to get my old anatomy books out? I'm only cd10 though with 28 day cycles so surely it's too early for me to be ovulating?

Cupcake1985 · 10/09/2013 20:52

vjones are you sure it's not ovulation pain? I get it like a sharp stitch that makes me sit down again if I stand up - it can hurt to straighten up. It doesn't last too long though and isn't unbearable..... Perhaps it's something non baby making related? Sorry I'm not much help Confused

VJONES1985 · 10/09/2013 20:56

I think you might be right. I expected ov pain to be on one side but this is in the middle. However, I started getting ewcm today so I guess that would make sense.

wispaxmas · 10/09/2013 21:00

I don't think ov pain would be acute, though... I'd be wondering more if its wind Blush

Cupcake1985 · 10/09/2013 21:02

It's usually on the side (apparently that's how you know which side released the egg) but we're human, pain is open to interpretation and rules are always broken..... In other words maybe you just feel it more in the middle. I googled it for you and other women on baby centre website say the same thing, pain just under belly button Cake

Daisychain44 · 10/09/2013 21:05

purple notta wispa mama think I might be on roughly the same timings too! Cd 14 tomorrow and going to start with the opk's (normally ov is about cd20 tho) Started DTD at the weekend just in case - trying to get ahead of myself as unfortunately got to go away with the MIL at the weekend - great timing - groan! Why does life always get in the way!?

VJONES1985 · 10/09/2013 21:09

Aww,thanks cupcake :)

wispa ha ha, probably! Went for a run earlier and that might have shifted some, err, air!

jaykay987 · 10/09/2013 21:13

Congrats on the BFP - hopefully it'll start another run of success stories!

Tmi question - Those who had spotting last month that ended up with AF (or anyone with knowledge of spotting) can I ask - what is it like?
I normally have heavy periods that typically start overnight, so Im not sure if what I have is spotting or the beginning of a flow whilst it is light.
I'm DPO9.
Not expecting AF before Sunday ( though perhaps my 5day late ovulation might turn into a 5 day shorter lutal phase).
I've had loads of symptoms (as we all do) but I was convinced today I wasn't imagining it!
Thoughts?

lucyfluff · 10/09/2013 21:30

Disney Im not sure when I ovulate but only on cd8 and feeling ov pain tonight. Grrrr.

Jaykay - had brown spotting previous night to AF then morning for an hour then the witch got me - not heavy at first though. Could yours be implantation?

lucyfluff · 10/09/2013 21:31

Ps mama - policeman oh please tell me he is!!!!???

MundayCakes85 · 10/09/2013 21:33

Hello, I'm new so thought I'd come join you ladies. TTC #1, cycle 2, BFP was due 1st or 2nd. However I'm now on day 39 and had a BFN today, had a bit of bright red spotting Sunday but nothing since. Can anyone give me some advice? Thanks.

Daisychain44 · 10/09/2013 21:37

jaykay I find spotting can be anything from 1 to 6 days worth before AF but I find it never goes away once it starts. Starts tiny tiny traces only when you wipe... Tmi!? But only happens now post mc so if you never get it then not sure why it would just start out of the blue on a normal cycle....?
Hope that helps!

VJONES1985 · 10/09/2013 21:38

Hiya. When did you ovulate? Could have been implantation bleeding, possibly. Have you recently come off the pill or similar?

MundayCakes85 · 10/09/2013 21:41

I have no idea when I ovulated, we're just trying to have lots of sex Wink I came off the pill end of June and have had a normal period since then. Had a kidney infection recently but didn't think it would make AF this late. Just want it to hurry up so we can start again!

jessieagain · 10/09/2013 21:51

killa great news with the bfp!

Hi munday if you only came off the pill end of June Id say it is just your cycles adjusting.

jaykay if you don't have a history of spotting I would say that sounds like possibly implantation bleeding as the timing would match that.

jaykay987 · 10/09/2013 22:01

thanks everyone.

yes I ovulated 9 days ago so timing works for spotting. but I'm cautious as I know it's not that common - so much more likely to be beginings of AF Angry
Im sure I'll know by morning, as AF normally kicks in overnight so we'll see.
I've already started to prepare myself - such a shame I was convinced my queasiness these past few days was not imaginary! Along with ny shopping list of other symptoms!
Anyway onto the next. I best calculate my next bpf date and go find the October bus!
Good luck everyone! (I'll hang around on the bus to see how you all get on)

wispaxmas · 10/09/2013 22:11

Ah, munday, I just replied to you on another thread, but ill repeat here: next cycle try tracking your temp and use opks to see what's going on. I found that not tracking made me wonder obsessively, but since tracking this month I've been less so. I'm confident that I will recognise the signs of ovulation this time and have a better idea of how many dpo I am later on, whereas before it was all guesswork.

It can be a bugger letting your cycles settle down after the pill, so cut your body a little slack for now and let it adjust before worrying.

Lots of baby dust, though, and I hope you either were just too early to get a bfp or AF doesn't keep you waiting too long.

MundayCakes85 · 10/09/2013 22:14

I know, I'm rubbish at waiting Blush guess I'll keep myself busy baking, not quite the bun in the oven I was hoping for this month though! Thanks for the advice. I'll wait for AF and get tracking

Refoca · 10/09/2013 23:33

AF arrived last Fri, so can you put me as:

Refoca ttc#2, cycle 2, bfp 30th Sept (I'll test, though prob too early)

PurpleGeekyGirl · 11/09/2013 07:27

Hmm another flashing Grin this morning, wasn't expecting that... Maybe I'm oving on fri not thurs.

Re spotting I had tiny amounts of v old brown when wiping a couple if times a day for 2 days with bouts of nothing in between then a bit more then nothing then massively heavy af v early. The cramps gave it away tho.
