I have one child who is 11, and who longs for a sibling. I am 32 years old & I have been trying to conceive since December 2013. I am ovulating thankfully, but seem to ovulate on CD18. My issue is that at 9dpo I start spotting and 10 dpo AF starts. I am on TTC#7 now, and I find the 2WW very difficult every month. I try to be positive and hope for the best, but on the other hand I try not get my hopes up too much, as it is so upsetting when AF arrives. I have had CD3 and 7 dpo tests done to check hormone levels...all of these have come back normal...My temps are really good too, so I just can't understand what is going on with my body. I also have been going to accupunture for the last 3 months. I am on CD1 today so hopefully this is the month I will conceive. Fingers crossed.Would anyone like to join me as I begin Cycle 7 TTC? x

CD1-36.9oC (TTC#7)(LP 10 days)

I just did an OPK! I was kinda freaking myself out worrying about ovulation! when will I learn This TTC does take it's toll on me sometimes! These are pics of the OPK I did today CD16 & then a pic of the ones I did CD14 & 15, with todays one..I will do another one later, to see if it gets stronger x I am not sure which ovary I will ovulate from, as they both seem to be giving out every so often! Fx the left will win! x

Wow laurano I don't ever get anywhere near a line like yours! I'm pretty sure the only line I've got before is an evap!! My cycles are usually pretty regular but I'm on cd16 now and don't think I've ovulated yet, temp has begun to rise now so hopefully that's a positive sign!
Fx for you though that you get your BFP this month!! I'm feeling better now :-) xxx

Hi Ela I am delighted you are feeling better x Maybe it is the opk's you are using...I have only ever used the True ones...they look the same out of the packet though! My temps are as follows the last few days:

CD 12 36.48°C
CD 13 36.51°C
CD 14 36.37°C
CD 15 36.01°C
CD 16 36.02°C

Hopefully your temps will drop for ovulation x Maybe you have ovulated already? Is that a possibility? Perhaps that is why your temps are on the rise x Either way! Fx for a shiny BFP this month for us all ! x Oh wouldn't it be fab! x

I woke at 5am this morning for a pee (TMI), so I took my temp first...it was 36.19°C. I usually take my temps at 7am, but I don't know whether to leave it or adjust it? I defo ovulated today! Left ovary Grin Please work! I am quiet sore there! x

The first pic shows tests starting from the bottom from CD14, CD15 & the two top ones CD16...they were stronger in colour within the first 10 mins or so. The pic of the OPK on the True pack was taken today CD17..it is definetly lighter x

Hmm have a lower temp today but definite EWCM this morning! Not sure what's going on! I had ov pain yest too so am pretty sure I just have ovulated late this month. Maybe my temps have been all over because of being unwell Confused

laurano looks promising that you've ovd! I don't know about adjusting the temp, I think all the other signs are pretty clear that it's happened! Woo fx! I def need to dtd tonight though! Xxx

laurano81 · 03/07/2014 22:49

Temp went up this morning so possibly then ov yesterday. I'm coming down with illness again so that is definitely playing havoc with my temps! We must both be on the same cd then? Fx for BFP! I'm going away on the 24th so hope AF / BFP comes before then! Xxx

1more Good to see you back Grin x It is normal for the temps to go up & down somewhat, once they are not dractic temp changes...also my temp was up then went down before ovulation & then went back up x

Ela I hope you feel better soon x Gosh there is always something in life...you can still try & get the swimmers in there! If you get what I mean! I will PM you x

I was really stressed over my car today,...the other drivers insurance wanted me to take 50% liability...I refused, as I was hit on the left hand side,..the other driver cut the corner & drove on the wrong side of the road...no way was I liable! x It's driving me to Wine lol! Best to stick with Brew & Cake x

OP posts:
ELA88 · 05/07/2014 09:40

laurano def don't settle for accepting any liability, have you got the personal legal stuff with your car insurance? When I had my accident the other drivers company kept refusing to take full responsibility and it dragged out for months but in the end they agreed. Hope you're ok though!

I have no temps either as I forgot to bring my thermometer away with me! So will have to continue when I get home Monday! Maybe a weekend away from making babies is what I need! Got a canesten tablet and cream last night so hopefully will feel better soon! Xxx

I slept really bad last night! Stress is a twunt! New word from another MNer! x

Ela glad you got that sorted x I did nothing wrong, so I am stranding my ground x I just gotta stop stressing about it, as my hair is falling out when I wash, brush & style it! Not good, as I have been growing my hair for years! It is down to the bottom of my rib cage & I want it down to just above my butt Grin! The things that make me happy! x Hopefully the canesten will work asap, and you will feel improvements! Enjoy your weekend away girl! Chillax & forget about TTC! I bet it will do you the world of good x

Hi Ladies,

laurano81 32, 36.53°C, TTC#2, Bike 8, CD20, Clear stretchy CM, 3DPO Sunday mild AF like cramping

laurano81 32, 36.43°C, TTC#2, Bike 8, CD21, Clear stretchy CM, 4DPO

I had some pink stretchy CM late on Saturday night a few hours after DTD. I checked an hour later, and it had turned to a very light brown colour, but it was mixed in the CM. I have had nothing since.

ELA88 · 07/07/2014 21:39

Hey laurano I forgot to temp this morning! Got out of practise over the weekend! I don't even know what's going on down there...still so painful and itchy. Went to the pharmacy and they said I have to see the GP as I can't have another canesten tablet :-( xxx

laurano81 · 08/07/2014 00:39

oh gosh Ela that sounds nasty Sad My sis had very bad thrush before & it took ages to clear Sad I find the canesten cream sometimes makes me really sore! You probably will have to go the doc, if it doesn't clear. Did you try the natural yogurt? It really helps soothe down there, it is a bit messy though!

Hello lovelies, finally feeling almost back to normal but now DH has gone away for 4 days! Although I think I'm well out of the conception zone now! Haven't a clue if / when I ovulated this month! According to fertility friend I'm on cd25 though so AF should be due in a few days! How have you been? What are your temps looking like? Xxx

laurano81 · 14/07/2014 13:43

Hi Ela AF arrived this morning Sad! Not a happy bunny at the moment! Feeling sore & sorry for myself x I hope Af has stayed away from you! At least that would make me feel better x Here are my temps for the last few days x

Tues CD22 36.63°C 5DPO
Weds CD23 36.53°C 6DPO
Thurs CD24 36.66°C 7DPO

Hey hun. Sooo sorry AF got you hun. Your temps looked really good too. Do you normally have a short lp?

Xx

laurano81 · 14/07/2014 21:11

Hey 1More how are you? x I only had a lp of 10 days this cycle Sad last cycle I had a lp of 12 days, but I had started taking Agnus cactus still taking it also the acupuncturist put a current through the needles to stimulate my ovaries cycle 7 before ovulation. He worked more on my back cycle 8, cos I was crashed into, so I reckon that must have done the trick! I have acupuncture again on the 28th, so will get that done again Smile

OP posts:
ELA88 · 14/07/2014 21:59

Hey ladies, AF got me too this morning! laurano we must have the same cycle lengths! Started temping properly again this morning so hopefully this month will have more of an idea, although I go away next week for a week so hopefully that won't mess them up!
Hope you're ok though! Xxx
