Dozy if I were you I would get your progesterone levels tested either via your gp or privately. Spotting for several days before af arrives can indicate low progesterone but this can be easily treated by your doctor. I think it's worth getting checked out rather than plodding on another 6 months only to find out something's not quite right.

You're in the right place twinky. Welcome aboard :)
Are you ttc your first child?

victoria401 · 04/11/2014 15:36

Hope you're ok toots I'm a bit of a fainter myself and its so embarrassing in public. I always think of fainting as a symptom tho as it happened in the film Sliding Doors!

Welcome to the madhouse twinky!

spinningirl10 · 04/11/2014 16:23

Welcome twinkyGrin

Ah yes Bluesky, your username is after your job. I would love to travel for a living, I'm sure your job is hard work though and not half as glamorous as the picture in my head Grin

Well I have a little creamy cm today, maybe this is a sign that I will ov at some point, 2 ic opks and a cb opk now today and not even a faint second line, it's quite boring now! Grin

twinky12 · 04/11/2014 16:30

Yeah #1, 1 unsuccessful pg last may. Just been reading through the thread trying to pick up on some of the lingo aha. I'm on CD 12.

xBlueberry88x · 04/11/2014 16:49

Afternoon Ladies,

Thanks for all the love im not feeling to bad about AF being here which I didnt expect...although wishing she would bugger off already. Take my first of the clomid tablets today hopefully the second month works!!

Tessie I took Pregnacare for a month and I was a week late as soon as I worked out what it was I stopped and my cycle went straight back to normal...Ive read lots about them to!!

Treacle Sorry your having such a hard time work cant be helping at all...is there anyway you can take some time off?

Toots Crying must be a symptom!! anndddd the fainting!!!Was the guy hot at least?

Spinning Is the ov dance not working for you? Maybe we should do a group dance

Genni Glad your feeling better today and getting on it (literally lol)

Joey Sorry for the BFN fx its to early

Twinky Welcome :)

Pikz · 04/11/2014 17:04

Spinning we need a group ov dance!

Treaclepie19 · 04/11/2014 17:21

Fingers crossed for you next cycle blueberry :)
I wish I could :( only just had half term but I worked all through it.
Only way I could do that is to be signed off and ill feel too guilty :(

Quietlyhopeful81 · 04/11/2014 17:22

Evening all!

Welcome Twinky! I haven't been here long, and the lingo baffled me for a while. Everyone is more than happy to help though. My favourite is referring to my partner as dp as those are his initials anyway lol.

Glad you're feeling ok, Blueberry. Smile

Thanks for all the answers re: mens supplements all. I'm going to go get him some tomorrow. My bbt arrived today. I am going to start using it from tomorrow just to try and get into the habit of doing it every morning ready for next cycle. 2 dpo today and I have a screaming headache, so it was interesting to read further on what painkillers are ok to use... You know, just in case.

tessiegirl · 04/11/2014 17:46

Ah ok, well it will be interesting to see when AF starts for me since I have been taking Pregnacare this month... I'm not even 100% sure I ovulated this month as I got positive opks along with 3 days of flashing smileys then 2 days of static smileys on CB and although there has been a slight rise in temp my spike looks nothing like those featured in tcoyf book! I have already decided that I am going to start temping vaginally from next cycle as I know I sleep with my mouth open so that may explain why there hasn't been a big thermal shift. Although on the other hand, as this will be only my second 'real' cycle off the pill I don't know how much of it is my body still settling down...there is so much waiting and seeing in this baby game! Grin

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 04/11/2014 17:55

I don't know about pregnacare and the affect on ovulation but I took it whilst pregnant with ds3 and it made me feel incredibly sick. It must be a pretty strong mix to have such an effect. This time I've just been taking folic acid and a good diet as I'm trying to lose weight.

Boosk · 04/11/2014 18:06

Evening ladies,

spinning glad to hear you had a positive appointment. I must must must remember to take my multi-vits more consistently. I take the Seven Seas Trying for a baby ones.

CD12 for me and nothing interesting to report. I've been temping for 3days (no idea when in the cycle I was supposed to start) and I'm already fed up with it. I think it's making me anxious as I've been waking up a lot in the night, at least I've been awake around the same time (5am) each morning. At least I'm getting a nice looking chart! Smile

TerrysNo2 · 04/11/2014 18:32

evening all!

welcome twinky you may not know it now but there will be a day when you spot car numberplates/business names with things like BFP, TTC, SWI and DTD in them and you will say the acronym words in your head. Or is that just me?? Grin

Spinning its interesting watching your soy journey, I am keeping a close eye in case I decide to try it one day. I'm doing a little ov dance for you!

Cariad I hope you and DH are more up for DTD now Smile

Blueberry I'm pleased you're feeling better. DH asked me last month how people can keep trying and be positive about it but I said that although it's gutting when AF arrives, you know it's only a couple of weeks before you get to try again so I don't feel without hope for very long. Does that make sense?

As I hoped I got a +ve OPK today so I should ov tomorrow so DTD for us for the next 3 nights and then a break Grin

Jcandy · 04/11/2014 18:34

Well dtd 1 out of target 8 achieved last night so very pleased about that Smile now to keep it up!

My temp was all over the place last month tessie so I've started temping vaginally this month. Messed up so far by a bout of sickness! Hopefully stabilising now before ov.

Sorry about AF blueberry but glad you're not feeling too bad about it!

So much to catch up on!! FX to anyone poasing soon!

twinky12 · 04/11/2014 18:39

Thanks for welcome ladies. terrys SWI is the only 1 of those I do not know. And ill be looking out now at number plates aha.

TerrysNo3 · 04/11/2014 18:43

SWI =sex with intent Grin Grin

I'm going for optimism and positivity this month... has my new username worked?? Smile Grin

twinky12 · 04/11/2014 18:48

Lmao sounds like some sort of offence but I like it. Hope your new user name helps Smile

gennibugs · 04/11/2014 18:57

ooh boosk I'm cd12 too! Smile

welcome twinky Smile

Liking the positive name change terrys.

spinningirl10 · 04/11/2014 19:15

spinningirl10 · 04/11/2014 19:18

Terry, fx for the name change working it's magicGrin

Blueberry, no the ov dance didn't work, maybe I should try againGrin

MaGratgarlik1983 · 04/11/2014 19:24

Well I caved and I POAS and I'm 90% sure there's nothing there! Gah for all the mad symptoms! I just don't understand anymore!

Thepurplegiraffe · 04/11/2014 19:29

Is it worth trying a frer with fmu MaGrat?

MaGratgarlik1983 · 04/11/2014 19:31

Yep maybe purple just feeling really fed up with all of it tbh! Think maybe it's all in my head and if that's true then just want AF so we can get on with ttc! Haven't had AF since my CP at the start of September and just feeling a bit argh about it all!

angelaham · 04/11/2014 19:31

Dozy - i too have spotting every month and sometimes it can be 6 or 7 dpo, i am taking vitamin b complex to see if that helps also on seven seas trying for a baby, last month i ovulated later and did not spot just as much this is my third month of being on them, hoping the added vitamin b complex does the trick

Tessie - I took pregnacare in June and my period was over two weeks late and i suffered with pregnancy type symptoms, was convinced i was pregnant as i felt so rough, i came off of them and the symptoms went away , think everyone is differ went, two of my fiends took them and they were fine and both fell pregnant after being on them three months
