Emergency bus for August! Penis dragons welcome, summer loving continued!

[MrsExtraOrdinary]

Oh dear we've run out of space! Hopefully somebody lovely will copy the stats over

Where you were ladies....

AF just turned up. Bugger.
Now wondering what this permanently dry mouth is all about if it isn't a symptom.
On the plus side, we're off on our holidays at the end of the month, at least I can have a few beers.
Maybe NEXT month then... try try again and all that.
Good luck to the rest of you, I want to see some BFPs to cheer me up!

Det, that sounds like you have a decent chance this month. Nice work!

Sorry to hear that misty - look forward to a relaxing holiday and good luck for next month.

There is a suspicious lack of BFPs around here. Who's next up? I think I got missed off the last list of stats so I should add myself in. CD9 here and have been using OPKs for a couple of days as I have no idea when I'm ovulating. Negatives so far, as expected, but hopefully one will be positive this weekend.

Well, I'm doing plenty of faffing about on the internet today - my toddler is unwell and has been napping for 3h15m so far this afternoon. Poor wee girl. I could have done so much in that time but have done so little! So slack. But then I have a cold too so shouldn't expect too much of myself. I should have gone to bed myself but instead I'm sat here yawning away...

Misty were you gonna be 12DPO too today? I was watching you and xBlue with interest as we were at the same stage! Sorry AF got you. I took a FRER this morning - BFN. Gah! I was sort of expecting that though tbh. First month on all the drugs and hormones so would have been like getting preg on my first cycle!! Not likely. However like I've said I'm quite pleased that all is now working, I've still not had AF so the progesterone's working at holding it off. Slightly weird I had major cramps on 9DPO, which is when I'd usually get AF. Will speak to doc about that. I'm gonna wait til 14DPO and stop the progesterone so AF should come a day or two later (which will make this cycle 56 days in total!! ) ...then it's all eyes on the prize for early September! Will be on the Femara (medical soy isoflavones!! Lol) CD3-7 this time though so hopefully I'll have a normal length cycle. One chance at the prize every 28 days is the dream!!!

Kitty am v pleased you're ov'ing early!! Maybe the soy's working already? And you'll have a more normal length cycle this time (hopefully a 9 monther!! ).

Chandlers yes, I think it would have been 12dpo. I did have a funny feeling last night that it was all over!
I might try softcups this month. Keeping fingers crossed that September is a luckier month!

Sorry your period turned up, mistywillow.

FF confirmed this morning that I am on DPO 3, but my chart is so weird looking. I have some really bizarre highs early in the cycle and a couple of really jagged peaks and troughs (due to differences of an hour in waking up times). I think if we have no luck this month, I'm going to set an EARLY alarm just for temping to try and get a smoother chart next cycle.

Morning all

misty sorry AF got you. I hope you have a lovely holiday. Are you going someone hot and sunny?

mamapo hope you and your little one feel better soon.

the detective fingers crossed you've done enough - it sounds like it. wE all have challenges don't we in this ttc lark- seems like it's not easy in so many different ways for us all on this bus.

chandlers could the cramps have been implantation? But as you say, at least you are on the right track now if AF does show up. You are so wonderfully positive.

Well I got another flashing smiley. But the lines were very close together. So think it should have been a fixed. Anyway I'm feeling all crampy so reckon I'll ov today. Just our luck it's whilst DH is away. I'm hoping and hoping we can catch it when he gets home at around midnight, but I'm guessing it may well be too late! The window is ever so small isn't it!

Morning

Misty, sorry af arrived

MrsE, hope everything gets sorted for your house move.

Detective, your story made me laugh.

Genni, I'm not sure about the ewcm, isn't it supposed to be present at most fertile time? But I read somewhere that by the time you see ewcm the egg has already been released. I'm sure kitty or English will know

9dpo here and no symptoms. Af due next thurs/fri so will try and hold off poas until Tues. not feeling hopeful though as I don't think we dtd enough!

Who's next to poas? We need some bfp's

Thanks for the stats tickle.

Also has anyone seen laurano? I don't think I've missed her posts?

Sorry misty :(

We are definitely due a BFPs - who's it gonna be?!

Detective that sounds like a challenge you've had! But well done! FX!

Sorry to hear AF showed up misty, enjoy your hols and relax u never know u may gets lots of DTD on your jollys and get lucky!

Genni I don't seem to get any ewcm and found opks useful this month! Hopefully you get DTD in time when hubby gets home!

Spinning I'm also 9dpo and I'm desperate to POAS! But really want to hold out in case of disappointment. When is the best time to try??

Misty sorry af got you.
Fx detective.
Well I actually had a tiny bit of bleeding overnight which is unusual but then again I hardly slept and spent most of night tossing and turning my stomach feels weird I feel sick and my back hurts.... Maybe I should phone doc after work and ask for advice
Hope everyone's ok today x

Sunshine it's best to wait till at least 12dpo

Ahh thanks kurama!! I know I should be holding out it's just soo hard!! I come on here so u ladies can talk some sense into me!

Sorry to hear u had a rough night, FX for u, could they be symptoms? X

Thanks spinning fx today we actually have some definitive news.

In a quandary ladies! So af still not arrived. Had darker cm for a moment yesterday but I only know that as I went out for lunch with a friend and panicked af might arrive in the middle of it, so shoved a tampon in. yes I know it's very bad I'm very silly!

So it's still aloof! My cycles have been really erratic this time ttc. It could easily be stress related. I'm on cd36. I haven't tested since Tuesday. Should I bother?

My experience of bfn at this stage, have resulted in bfp at 5.5 weeks and then mc at 7wks, finally a bfp at 7-8 wks and a baby at. 42wks (which goes to show I must have ovulated late there too) as it was a spontaneous onset or a completely skipped af and a horrendous period to follow where feels like your whole body is falling out of your fanjo. Im hoping for option 2.

Now dh is committed to suspenders I just want to get on with next month. Children arrive home later, maybe it'll turn up tomorrow when I'm less on edge.

I think we need a new word for limbo the bimbo! I don't know how you long cycle suffers manage to be so patient.

So I'm going to chart...... Finally! Where do I get the best fanjo thermometer and what's the best ap to track it. It needs to be simple.

I used the gerantherm thermometer from amazon. You can use it vaginally but I temp orally.

Will catch up properly later as im on my phone.

Still crampy today and feeling sick but no AF yet I really do hope she doesnt come early.

Shes due Tuesday if 28 day cycle but last month was only 26 days!

Thanks treacle will search for that one.

Morning lovelies!

Sorry the bitch came Misty!

We're definitely due some BFPs here!!
Hope the mortgage comes through MrsE!
Detective - that is some serious DTD action! I hope it pays off!!

Anyway - found this on Pinterest - probably resonates with most of us!!

Sunshine, frer say they work 4 days before af is due. When is your af/bfp due?

Kurama, sorry to hear you're still in limbo, how frustrating for you.

Keeping fingers crossed blue! Sorry to hear yoke still in limbo mrse! U seem so calm, hope u get yourself sorted one way or another?

I'm not due AF until the 14th so I know it's far too early! I'm been really achey yesterday and the roof of my mouth feels swollen and I had loads of blood brushing my teeth last night which apparently can be a symptom??.......so I'm slightly driving myself mental symptom spotting hence the desperation to test! :(

Good morning ladies. What day do you usually start opk? I'm currently cd7, and itching for my fertile window.

spinning currently waiting for call from doc as its gone from spotting to light flow.... feeling extremely pissed off at mo so hope boss is in a good mood or I will end up taking it out on him! only there till 2 today so hopefully will survive

Misty -dry mouth can be a symptom of a big surge in progesterone-maybe that was all it was? So sorry for the AF:onwards and upwards!

genni -how many CB sticks do you have left? I'd try another one around 4-5pm today if the two lines were very close together in colour. I did and got my solid and a BFP that cycle!
I haven't been on FB in the past few weeks due to a big influx of pregnancy announcements but I'll brave it to send laurano a private message to see if she is alright. I know that last BFN and AF knocked her for six and I hope feels better and is looking forward to another chance.

kurama Jeez sweetie, you are in a bad way. Trip to a nice sympathetic Doctoris in order, regardless of TTC or not. Am sharing my morning and with you

MrsE I use the BabyMad thermometer for Amazon, vaginally. To be honest, any BBT thermometer to 2dp will be fine. So sorry your body is playing games with you. Very frustrating when you don't know what is going on

That diagram fits me perfectly English

ohlordy how long are your cycles normally? Generally, on average most people start on CD10 but you might need to be earlier than that or not bother until later, IYSWIM?

I still am not sure if I really have ovulated yet. My bbt went up to the same temp as day before yesterday, I really need the next two days temps to check but I have two nights out planned! I really haven't had any fertile CM so not sure if the Soy Isoflavones have dried that up or I am yet to ovulate Oh, the dilemmas!
