catnip I hear you on the frustration. Here is my BBT chart with the last temp from this morning. Beginning to go a little stir crazy?? Grin

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 08:23

kitty! That chart just screams "pregnant"!
I hope you're out of limbo soon.

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 08:27

Looking at your chart Grand, I'd say your body geared up to ovulate on CD10, didn't quite, hence CD12 and then your big LH surge on CD13 means I think it could be either CD14 or 15. I'd go with CD15, the day before the temp rise, until FF confirms. Don't forget to keep an eye on your CM too, my lovely!!

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 08:27

Also, MrsE, hope you don't mind but I sent a screenshot of the kittens to the penis dragon antenatal group. They've been asking about you.

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 08:28

Shame the HPTs aren't screaming 'pregnant' Treacle ha ha!! I have to be different

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 08:34

Hehe, what cycle day are you now?

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 08:43

CD40 Smile

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 09:10

Oh Kitty :(
Stupid limbo!

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 09:14

Back in Feb, what CD did you go to Treacle?

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 09:32

It was in the late 30's. The doctor said the same as yours though. Af did arrive in the end just very late :/
Hoping it's a positive outcome for you!

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 09:40

Me too! I went to CD43 after my early mc and that made sense due to hcg levels at the start but now am worried this might be something common to me. I got positive hpts back then so I know it can't be me not processing HCG in my urine. So annoyed! Last cycle was so textbook!

In my funk, I've done a lot of reading and came across soy isoflavones. Anyone else heard of these?

MrsExtraOrdinary · 22/07/2014 09:47

Oh course I don't mind treacle, how thoughtful of you Smile I am just a cat lady these days! Lol

Aprilray · 22/07/2014 10:25

MrsE your kittens are adorable! I am a massive cat lady too Smile

Catnip and Kitty I really hope we will be seeing BFPs from you very soon- so frustrating being in limbo.

Things are pretty quiet here, CD10 and don't expect to ovulate for another week...
Someone mentioned tarot a little while ago on the July bus, I couldn't resist getting a reading, felt like I needed a bit of a lift as I was feeling pretty down in the dumps after AF arrived. Was told that I will have two healthy children and that I will have good news in the next 4-5 months - I want good news now! Still hoping for an April baby - fx

SurreyBunny · 22/07/2014 10:32

Hi Kitty I've taken soy isoflavones this cycle as I had done a lot of reading up on them. Supposed to be like nature's clomid and there are certainly some positive stories. It's too early to tell if it's been successful but I've had no side effects from it. I took it as I wanted to O earlier (not that it's happened but I am super stressed this month anyway) but I took it CD 5 - 9 which is supposed to help the one egg you have to be really strong. 3 - 7 is optimum apparently but the earlier you take it the more the chance you have of releasing more than one egg. Tesco's have them on 3 for 2 at £4.40 each...HTH!!

SurreyBunny · 22/07/2014 10:38

When I was about 5 weeks pregnant with DD someone at work told me they could see children around me which I thought was really spooky so this time round in every 2ww I've made a point of going up to them and having a chat incase it happens again Blush so far nothing....then last week he said the same thing to me - it has made me ridiculously excited and positive....I tried to pin him down on when but all I got was soon - he's not that good Grin

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 10:58

Wow Surrey Can you send your colleague my way Wink

Thanks for the info. What CD are you now and what dosages did you take?
My progesterone seems to take a bit too long to properly rise after ovulation and I'd like to lower the ovulation day from CD20 if I can.

Now all I need is AF...

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 11:01

Been to the doctor. She reckons it's thrush I've got not a uti. That makes sense as none of my usual tricks have helped and it has come and gone.
Glad we dtd last night although I'm sure we shouldn't have.

Still, cd14 and waiting to see what my temp does. Second day of solid smiley.

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 11:16

Hope some Caneston clears it right up Treacle! Do you remember Retro's successful BFP after DTD during her custardy cm episode Grin It's a good sign, I tell you!

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 11:18

Thanks kitty, OMG yeah! Haha.
We will have to continue to dtd through the burn :p
The things we do...

kurama · 22/07/2014 11:43

lol morning all!

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 13:00

Ave you got any other SYMPOMS other than he spotting kurama?
I've had three days of sore boobs, every now and then, twinges in tummy and occasional, what I would call, mini mini waves of nausea. Of course, could just be down to the random progesterone I seem to be producing Grin Same with you?

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 13:03

Oh, and between 14 and 17dpo, I had absolutely no SYMPTOMS whatsoever!!

xBlueberry88x · 22/07/2014 13:59

Kitty I dont think I would be as calm as you at the moment I was bad enough when I was a week late with no symptoms at all. Our bodies just like to mess with us every once in a while. Im still fx for you though!!

MrsE they are gorgeous

Treacle hope dtd last night was worth it lol

cd 8 for me today and AF has buggered off. I have my HSG tomorrow and im so nervous especially as dp is working so ive had to ask my mum to come with me. Has anyone had a HSG? and been told not to dtd for the rest of the month (unprotected). My doc said alot of women are highly fertile after but dont want loose another month grr.

KittyVonCatsington · 22/07/2014 14:15

Not had an HSG but just wanted to wish you lots and lots of luck Blueberry and I think it's lovely your Mum is going with you. Not DTD for a month does sound counter productive but if it gives you your BFP...

Bless you though, I'm not that calm, otherwise I wouldn't be on the
Conception threads so much Grin I have no choice but to wait so might as well pass the time with you all!

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 14:17

Haha I can say it probably wasn't worth it Blueberry. I'm in more and more pain today. No more dtd for us til its gone despite it being over ovulation.

I can't give any advice but good luck :)
