Congrats boo and shoot!

Shall be poas tomororw, 10dpo has arrived quickly this month :)

Boosk · 08/01/2015 20:11

Hi sparkly I had a slight temp drop yesterday (3dpo) but it was still higher than pre-ov temps and it shot right up again today, I don't read too much into the odd erratic temp as long as there is a rise in general I think it's OK. A drop below the cover line may indicate AF is on the way but not at 3/4dpo I wouldn't have thought.

loopylou1984 · 08/01/2015 20:15

Sparkly - I'm not 100% sure. But if it always happens then I would say it's normal for you and has no bearing on whether implantation happens or not.
I've read that some people might see a slight dip and then more of a rise if implantation happens, but equally I've seen charts if ppl who were pg but temps fluctuated quite a lot (but always above the coverline) from ov to bfp. I think the key is to learn your normal pattern and look out for the drop which means af is coming... Or hopefully not!! X

ShootTheMoon · 08/01/2015 20:16

Thanks so much everyone!

Treacle I will be cheering for a BFP for you tomorrow too Grin

I just splashed out on some maternity clothes in the sales at Seraphine and Vertbaudet Blush my overwhelming memory of last pg is being uncomfortable in my clothes and most of what I bought was ebay/NCT second hand. I need smarter work clothes these days so I just went with it. Whoops Blush

rubyrubes13 · 08/01/2015 20:19

And I am back in the game !!! Fertile time starts tomorrow so dragged dh in to bed he was well happy till I told him he had another week of this as I am not using opk or temping so it's bed city for us till we get a bfp this will be cycle 7 so I think I deserve a bfp by end of month would be nice as its Rubys birthday 29th

TrixieRay · 08/01/2015 20:21

Sammy, yes I think it is the same thing, they called it the HyCoSy at the clinic I went to. Hopefully you get your BFP by April and don't have to have it. They basically insert a catheter into your uterus and put dye down the tubes to check for blockages.

Boosk · 08/01/2015 20:22

Thanks for the stats shoot and boo!

Treacle cheering for you so loudly, just remember 10dpo is still early. Have you had any symptoms this month?

Boosk · 08/01/2015 20:27

Oh and good for you shoot very well deserved. I shall look forward to an excuse to buy some new close.

Right I'll stop spamming the thread now. As you were Wink

Treaclepie19 · 08/01/2015 20:27

Thanks ladies :)
I will Boosk, i always like to test on 10dpo as af tends to arrive then as I have a short lp. Like to know before af gets me.
Not as many symptoms as normal :(
Bloated and tired but what's new! :p

Boosk · 08/01/2015 20:27

Boosk · 08/01/2015 20:43

FX for you treacle that no symptoms is actually a good sign.

gennibugs · 08/01/2015 20:46

Treaclepie19 · 08/01/2015 20:47

boosk and sammylou thanks so much for the advice! I feel I am constantly asking questions!! Basically the same drop happens every month at day 21 after the rise at ovulation. So have no idea what it means. It does tend to go back up again but quite erratic. I think the main thing I was questioning is whether the fact that my bbt chart looks exactly same as normal at 3dpo means I haven't been successful this month or is this something I won't know until later? Temping just takes you on a bit of a roller coaster at times I feel!!

Everyone ready for their poas party Tomor?! Keeping fingers crossed for you all!!

Lol - sparkly, it's funny to hear you say you think YOU'RE asking too many questions because that is exactly how I feel!
I don't think it means anything at day 21 (as long as your cycle isn't 22/23 days), annoyingly I think you can only tell when you get to AF due date and watch for your temp to drop below the cover line.
How long have you been temping? X

Treaclepie19 · 08/01/2015 21:28

sparkly ive had charts that were the same as my bfp and charts that were different and none of them were a bfp so I don't think it matters! :)

fififolle · 08/01/2015 21:35

I'm out despite DTD eod during fertile times. I used CB OPK too.
Not sure what to try. I should be 25 weeks but had a MMC in October.
I'm going to step off the buses for a bit.
Congrats to all the BFPs.

Fruityb · 08/01/2015 21:55

Out as well serves me right for posting. I'm going to go and cry into my pillow again. This is the worst. Been trying over a year. I can't bear this every month.

loopylou1984 · 08/01/2015 22:00

Sorry that AF arrived fifi and fruity.

Fruity, I know how you feel, I'm on cycle 15 now. Have you seen a Dr at all? X

letsdothisthing · 08/01/2015 22:08

Congrats shoot and boo, this bus has taken an exciting turn, long may it continue!

fifi, sorry you're out this time, I mc'd in November and after a crazy wtf cycle, currently on cd17 of wtf cycle and waiting to ov! Has your mc messed up your cycles?

How are you doing melon, do you temp? Have you ov'd? Think it may be the weekend for me now which is fine as DH isn't working!

letsdothisthing · 08/01/2015 22:09

Sorry...that should say currently on cd17 of first cycle after wtf cycle!!

Fruityb · 08/01/2015 22:16

No Sammy. We're probably on cycle 12 to be fair and I know we weren't really doing it right to begin with. I've had a lot of stress lately so don't think that's helped. I think I'd just got myself so convinced that it could happen this time and then it shows up early!!

Onto next month. Doesn't make me feel any better but hey. I'm taking folic acid now. I don't drink and I quit smoking. I've lost a stone nearly just lately and have changed my eating habits.
I think I need a month of just pure shagging lol. Think we need a holiday and some together time. I just want this so so badly.

pocopearl · 08/01/2015 22:34

almost at the half way point of 2ww. Getting restless! reaching for the sticks

loopylou1984 · 08/01/2015 22:36

Yes, I totally know what you mean. Some couple time sounds great, and a cheeky winter holiday would be lovely, can you get something booked?
We're going for dtd as much as possible this cycle, and I've said I'll go without the opks (we'll see, I think I might have a poas addiction!) to make it less scientific!
I'm still going to temp though because I can't bear the waiting on another wtf cycle if I don't ovulate! At least I'll know after the event and it won't affect dtd as once temps rise ov has already happened! X
