no i didnt ask what the numbers down, but i guess that makes me 1/2dpo so with that in mind can i change my stats to kurama 26 ttc #1 Bike24ish (no clomid this month) bfp due 17-20th aug Dragon Grin

jdear · 01/08/2014 18:55

Kurama I'm glad you got some answers - even though it wasnt exactly what you wanted to hear! At least there's no more wondering.

Do you mind me asking why you take clomid? Were you not ovulating previously?

spinningirl10 · 01/08/2014 19:22

Grandhigh, I voted yes as I think on greyscale there's a faint line, fx for a stronger one tomorrowGrin

Kurama, sorry your test was negative. You definitely need to dtd asap Wink

Cpt1sock · 01/08/2014 19:33

katy I have a 25 day cycle on average. AF usually here for 4 days but this cycle it's been 6, cheeky mare over staying her welcome! On one hand I like having short cycles because we have more chances but I feel like I'm always on AF or have pmt.

kurama bizarre! Good news of a sort though.

mrse welcome home. It must be very quiet without the full brood, enjoy your bit of quiet-ish time.

We go on our jollies tomorrow, looking at the weather for next week cornwall is mainly wet, fab!

CoffeeOne · 01/08/2014 19:36

Grandhigh I voted yes. I can see a line in the first picture without squinting :)

TheGrandHighWitch · 01/08/2014 19:49

Yay, thanks so much spinningirl10 and CoffeeOne. I am planning on doing one of the cheapies at about 9pm ish and although not quite as sensitive, it should hopefully do the job. I have been feeling a multitude of possible symptoms today and have been very gassy for the last few hours. Blush.

Sorry for mostly posting stuff about me today. I can't seem to keep my head off that test.

Cpt1sock · 01/08/2014 19:53

grand I've just looked at your test and can see a hint of a line when I switch it to grey scale. Please post a picture of your 9pm test. I love looking at hpts, strange.

MrsBeeBeeBee · 01/08/2014 19:55

Eeek grandhigh so exciting. fingers crossed for an unmistakable BFP.

Think my first AF after miscarriage may be on her way. Had brown spotting all day which isn't usual for me but who knows what happens after mc! So if I go back to some vaguely normal cycle then I'd get a shot at a very late Aug testing date.

xBlueberry88x · 01/08/2014 20:00

On my phone again but chandlers ive been feeling wiped and nauseous plus dodgy tummy for couple days...symptom?? Lol

Hope everyone is doing ok

TheGrandHighWitch · 01/08/2014 20:14

Thank you Cpt1sock and MrsBeeBeeBee. I will of course keep you all updated when I test again. I have been feeling shattered for the last two days as well xBlueberry88x so hopefully it is a symptom for us both.

kurama · 01/08/2014 20:16

jdear yes I'm on clomid as I wasn't ovulating at all before due to pcos. Add that to having arthritis means cycles all over the place and very little chance of conceiving. Over 2 years and nothing. No bfp however short lived no anything so far.
Is It abad thing I'm happy I can confuse medical professionals? Shock

jdear · 01/08/2014 20:34

No I don't think it's a bad thing kurama, it just means you will get more attention from them imo! Now go jump on your dh! Ha.

Grandhigh I am eagerly awaiting your update!

I'm sat home alone in my pjs tonight. Was supposed to be out with DH and some friends however one of our friends who took lots of photos and videos (he works in the industry) at our wedding has just admitted that he has lost them. So I'm really angry and can't face him tonight. Drowning my sorrows with wine (so I may end up with a pickled egg seeing as I'm ovulating) and eating chocolate. Thank god we still had a professional photographer....I'm just upset we don't have videos of the speeches now :-(

MrsExtraOrdinary · 01/08/2014 21:02

Just had a read back of the July bus -gosh we chatter don't we and realised I had that late ewcm on 21st July followed by obligatory dtd. So if I'm looking on the bright side it's unlikely I'd be showing a bfp yet anyway. [hopeful] Confused

I'll test tomorrow and we shall see. Perhaps I'm not out yet Wink

MrsExtraOrdinary · 01/08/2014 21:10

And I had more ewcm on 23rd so if I go by that as an indicator bfp is well off yet. I'd only be about 8/9dpo. Baring in mind I don't tend to get early positives I'm clearly not out yet!

MrsGingerbread · 01/08/2014 21:13

Hello ladies!

Cd 12 for me, with a positive opk today. .. so we are off! :)

I'm just about to read back and catch up on almost the gossip...

Woo! Go go August bus! Dragon Dragon

TheGrandHighWitch · 01/08/2014 21:17

FX for you MrsExtraOrdinary.

Ok so I poas and what looked like a faint second line then disappeared so I am still in limbo. The test isn't quite as sensitive as a FRER and this one wasn't done with FMU (but with an approx 5hr hold) so I was being a little optimistic lol. Roll on the morning I think.

Cpt1sock · 01/08/2014 21:28

Fx mrse it's handy having these threads to read back on isn't it.

grand is it a frer you have for morning?

Katybear123 · 01/08/2014 21:30

Hi cpt1sock, that is for sharing I'm pleased I'm not alone, r u ttc ur 1st? Hoping tomoz af will have done 1 and we can get cracking I'm v excited to start now, I want this month to b the one. Come on body do ur thing x

TheGrandHighWitch · 01/08/2014 21:35

Yes Cpt1sock, I have a FRER for the morning.

TheGrandHighWitch · 01/08/2014 21:35

Yes Cpt1sock, I have a FRER for the morning.

BrixtonBunny · 01/08/2014 21:46

Hello ladies, just lurking to see how you're all getting on... Don't mind me...

GrandHigh keeping everything crossed you get your BFP tomorrow! Smile

Kurama how frustrating, but at least you've got some answers now. Hope you managed to DTD Wink

Will read back properly soon but just wanted to say hello! X

ChandlersFarang · 02/08/2014 03:49

Hiya Brixton!! how's tricks? Still on cloud 9 I'm assuming - have you told anyone any of your key bits of news yet? How are your symptoms coming along? You must be having the best week ever! Grin

Over here, am 6DPO, and have been absolutely ROASTING hot in bed last night and the night before - never had that before! The interesting thing is there's good explanation: the hospital took my temp Weds & yesterday and confirmed I don't have a fever (from my ear thing) and it's 100% not the weather, because I live in an temperature-controlled world of constant air con, so our bedroom has been set to 22 degrees nightly for the last year!!

ChandlersFarang · 02/08/2014 03:49

*NO good explanation. D'oh!!! Grin

Cpt1sock · 02/08/2014 05:59

chandler exciting!!!! When are you going to test?

grand good luck this morning, hope your BFP is less of a squinter.

katy we are ttc #3. We're having this cycle off ttc or at least taking a very relaxed attitude towards it. We are away over usual ov time, camping with our older dc. Not the most productive environment. Do you use opks? I was shocked when I began using them to see how early I ov. We would have been dtd far too late had I just relied on period tracker app.

brixton hope everything is going well in the land of bunnies.

Not sure how reliable the wifi is where we are camping, lots of complaints on trip advisor saying it wasn't working during their stay, not sure how good the 3G signal will be. Dh and might have to actually interact with each other Shock lol. Anyway if I don't get chance to read up next week, good luck to those testing and happy shagging to those ov'ing. I look forward to seeing some BFPs have been had while I'm gone. Thanks

spinningirl10 · 02/08/2014 07:14

Morning Grin

Cpt, enjoy your camping trip. Hope the sun shines for you.

Grandhigh, have you poas yet?

Pouring with rain here today!!
