Hi ladies,

Sorry af came Spinning & Chandlers- she's a whore! Fx for a June baby! And like Linda says June babies are the best.... I'm a June baby Wink

Second flashing smiley day today. My ic's however look nowhere near positive. Could be in for a load of flashies Hmm. Def trying the SIF next cycle.

sparkle17 · 12/08/2014 20:06

Your doing well on the dtd front this month katy I reckon you might be in to your tww now.

OneDayLikeThis2013 · 12/08/2014 20:08

Thank you everyone, you ladies give great advice. I'm sat with a glass of chilled wine trying to chill myself! Definitely going to do my very best not to test unless absolutely necessary.

Katybear123 · 12/08/2014 20:31

Ah thanks sparkle just gave it another go just in case sorry for to much info so that 17, 16, 13,12, and 9. Will try 19 and 21 just to b safe maybe even 23 and then hopefully a bfp.
Love the wine one day I am trying to be gd till hol which is 1 wk 1 day today :-). Bad timing though as either af will b with me whilst I am away or will have the dilemma of whether to test or not but away with parents!!

KittyVonCatsington · 12/08/2014 20:43

English I'm convinced miscarriages mess up cycles for some women longer than we think and if we need help ovulating at a good time, then so be it! I still have nightmares involving flashing smileys... The SIF are still proving good- I'm loving that my post ov temps just keep going up and up (up another .1 today to 37.88 at 3dpo and that is usually a 7ish dpo temp for me)

Testing is secret is a dilemma katy! I'm going on a weeks holiday to France at the end of the week with DH and my DSis and her family so am umming and aching wether to take some ics or wait until we get back Sat 23rd which will be 14dpo-should I be good or become a POAS addict, hmmmm??!! Hope it's a dilemma worth having though and we get our BFPs!

Okay. Who wants to have a laugh at my 3dpo SYMPTOMS?! Seriously, far far too early for implantation and I've never heard of progesterone causing this but I have peed a total of 8 times already today and I haven't really drunk that much and it doesn't feel UTI related to me. Methinks this is going to be a loooong TWW Grin

Enjoy your Wine oneday Cheers!

Katybear123 · 12/08/2014 20:52

Hey kitty, eww a symptom spot, I don't have any at all yet but I think to early as prob only just entering tww. Faintest dull ache in right ovary but much less that last few days. As u say to poas in secret or not. I'm not going to stress on it and will make a call next wk, with my funky cycles who knows what might happen.
My only slight issue is whilst away if no bfp I will drink and eat shellfish and soft cheese for sure and I'm not sure how happy I would b doing this not knowing, hmmmmmmm decisions decisions. So r u due bfp on 23rd kitty?

angelaham · 12/08/2014 21:05

I am going to have a rant, tonight and tomorrow is meant to be the last days of me being fertile, we done the deed on sunday night and was hoping to be able to do it again tonight but hubbie is tired like he was yesterday, so thats my chances of getting pregnant well and truly fucked!!!

sorry rant over lol!!

EnglishGirlsReturned · 12/08/2014 21:07

I think my cycles were just getting back to normal-ish and then second mc happened Angry. But you're right Kitty, some women on the ttc after mc thread have had screwy cycles for a good few months after. Sucks!!
They are impressive temps Smile. Now, you know at 3dpo it's too early for implantation, therefore too early for a SYMPTOM!! Wink

i HATE waiting to ov!! Much worse than tww!!

EnglishGirlsReturned · 12/08/2014 21:08

Angelham - kick dh into touch!! Tell him to man up and do his duty! Wink

BananaToast · 12/08/2014 21:08

It's crap isn't it, I would have dtd much more around ovulation but DH didn't want to so we missed our best chance. So frustrating.

Katybear123 · 12/08/2014 21:11

Ah sorry angel that's rubbish. Is it still worth trying do u defo know u have ovulated? I have the fear to and we have done it loads but not eod so still worried not in with a shot.
English girl so sorry ur cycles are messed up that isn't fair :-(

sparkle17 · 12/08/2014 21:15

Rants are very much allowed on here angel, hopefully sunday counted and you can dtd soon as well,and like English said...tell him to man up haha,

Is anyone watching the club on bbc1....I really want to be 'in the club'!

angelaham · 12/08/2014 21:17

i presume i am, i have had EWCM since sunday night and pain on my side on and off, so not sure if i am still to ovulate , next month i am going to buy some ovulation tests, then i should know for sure,

spinningirl10 · 12/08/2014 21:21

Hope you get your fixed smiley soon English.

Kitty, you have to take at least one hpt with you! Otherwise you'll end up trying to buy one in a little French pharmacy in Bridget
Jones styleGrin

Genni, I have a huge bar of wholenutSmile

Blueskygirl30 · 12/08/2014 21:41

Katy actually, I think you might be right. I'm 2dpo but looking at last month I got a little emotional in the few days after ovulation then too. I properly sobbed this morning for about 10 minutes.

Kitty I'm only 2dpo and I went to the loo about 5 times in 4 hours at work today, my colleague even made a comment about me being pregnant. I'm not actually reading into it tho, I was doing a work related test and think they were probably nervous pees! Oh and Kitty I would definitely take a test with you otherwise, as Spinning says, you'll be comedy acting out that you need a pregnancy test.

Angelaham here is the best place to rant. And you are not alone in your struggle to get DH to DTD at the right time. Fx Sunday counted for you.

angelaham · 12/08/2014 21:43

thanks girls, its so nice to have all of your support, this place really helps us all x

Katybear123 · 12/08/2014 22:08

I get the same blue sky hence the q. Right off to bed now. Gd luck all those dtd tonight Smile

Pompatrol · 12/08/2014 22:34

Oh no spinning, gutted for you. Good luck on the next bus.
jazzy I can't remember but embarrassingly early testing eg 7 dpo and all negative until about 16 dpo (though I'm guessing about when ovulation was, basically AF was definitely late before I got a BFP). Hope that helps someone!

kurama · 12/08/2014 23:18

Marking place so I can check up on u all later xWink

KittyVonCatsington · 12/08/2014 23:36

Well, certainly won't be DTD on the last day of SMEP, DH has broken his wrist NOT doing what you think hee hee but in his gymnastics class and currently in A and E waiting for a doctor. Poor DH Sad

angela remind your DH it's only 5-10 mins of his life and to step up to the plate! V frustrating when they won't play ball.

KittyVonCatsington · 13/08/2014 03:45

Finally back now. Poor DH is still at the hospital-the break is so bad he will need surgery tomorrow s they have admitted him.

What a night! Had some pretty sharp tummy pains myself still do while we were waiting and I've just see red blood on my toilet paper. It's what happened last cycle at 4dpo too and I went on to have that evil 43 day cycle with AF from hell Sad Even if it might be late ovulation spotting, DH is obviously in no fit state to DTD anyntime soon Sad

Think this cycle is going to be another disappointment.

MrsGingerbread · 13/08/2014 04:23

Oh dear, poor MrKitty -hope that the op sorts everything and that he is feeling better soon.

Hope your bleeding is a good sign Kitty- and not a sign of another horrible month.

English I hope your cycles sort themselves out soon, mine are different post m/c too - significantly longer cycles.

angela I hope your fella steps up to the mark. Ttc really is the least romantic thing ever.

7dpo for me today and my left boob still really hurts (it has for the last few days - which I know is too early to be a symptom). Still, I don't remember shutting myself in the car door or anything! Odd! it probably doesn't help that I keep poking it :)

jazzyjenbo · 13/08/2014 07:21

English, my cycles hav only just started to regulate after mmc in january. The first 3 cycles were all over, longest at 40 days. The last 2 hav been the most normal but my cycle has reduced by about 2 days and af is shorter but i flood now on middle day which never happened before (sorry tmi)
Hope urs regulate soon, its like a constant reminder isnt it and all u want is to get back to 'normal'.

spinningirl10 · 13/08/2014 07:27

Oh poor MrKitty, hope the op goes well today and he makes a speedy recoveryThanks

BananaToast · 13/08/2014 07:31

Ok now I'm confused. I'd pretty much ruled myself out as I had a tiny bit of spotting last night and checked internally when I woke up this morning and had more brown CM but really runny so thought it was the start of AF. I POAS anyway (sulkily but just to be sure), expecting to be totally negative, but I think I can see a hint of a line. Is this just wishful thinking or can anyone else see it? How quickly do you get evap lines? Photo was taken about 10 mins after testing.
