Jan bus take 3!!!!!

[Mumwannabe82]

It's that time again ladies to jump on the next thread because we do like to chat alot!

Haha obviously I am that excited and yes you're right it's just about knowing what's going on as I really don't think they will find a miraculous hpt foiling baby in there but maybe just some answers!

You could be purdey people have reported different symptoms for each of their pgs so just because you don't have the symptoms you had last time, doesn't mean you're out! When will you poas?

That is great news blimey. Keep us updated.

missmrs I would do it if you possibly can. I am the same as you, you don't want to force dh to have sex, but then panic if you don't dtd!

Thanks Purdey I will get it ordered. I hate farenheit too, so that is perfect. Don't give up hope yet. It's not over until you see red in your knicks!

Thanks nomio glad it's not just me who panics like that! We have had a few too many months where we have not managed DTD enough. Once I was so laid back about opk-ing that when I did one it was positive and we hadn't DTD once yet! Ok I will begin seducing hahaha

Argh! Help me, friends! I'm menkulling! I have overlaid this month's chart onto the chart where I fell pregnant naturally in 2012 (ended in mmc). Is it just me or are they almost identical?? (The purple dots are this month's temps).

Lots of exciting and nail biting news on here! Good luck to everyone ??

I've been waiting on an ultrasound (internal I think) appointment and it's finally come through for the same date as my 'come back if you're not pregnant by April' appointment, just an hour before.
Will that give enough time for the results to be with the consultant to discuss with us? I tried to call the hospital but they must have closed at 5pm.
Also, what if af shows up on that date? It's possible if I were to have a couple of short cycles but I won't know for sure until nearer the time. Gah, I hate this, so does dh... Why can't we just get pregnant on our own??

Purdey I can't see your chart on my phone, will log on PC to see.... But menkulling??!

Yes it's me on my own on Thursday, will be haunting this thread looking for company.

I didn't have anything to pee on today when I got in from work tonight so I felt at a bit of a loose end! The BBT thermometer I have is a back lit one, that did beep but I've somehow switched it off.

It saves the last temp, so when my alarm goes off it's switched on, stuck in my gob then put down until I'm more awake to record it!

Is there an app just for charting? I'm happy with the one I have already for tracking, but although it records the temps it doesn't do a graph.

Busy day on here, haven't had time to catch up yet.

Just wanted to send massive hugs and for sparkly. Stay positive xx

Thanks purdey, yes that does make sense

Linguaphile I'm with you on the craziness and that I shouldn't be feeling different but I definitely do/did. Like yesterday with the uterine cramping which, when I did the dates, I realised was 6dpo which is about right for implantation...

So much confusion!

I'm in it with you, marmite. Turns out DH is home Thursday night, not Friday.

Sparkly - I saw you post that you are going to the fertility clinic tomorrow, this could be totally wrong but ask about your progesterone level, as you and i both suffer with spotting before our periods i can't help thinking that may be an issue, Im not saying that is what caused your miscarriage but something to rule out, I am on high strength vitamin B complex this month to help with the spotting and this could maybe of help to you when you decide to try again , i hope my lovely you don't think i am being in sensitive in my post but i just want to be of some help if i can xx

thanks for all the advice...glad that this illness shouldn't have any impact whether we've conceived this month or not! So fed up of feeling ill and being couchbound for another 4 days...guess it means I will have time to keep up to date with this thread and start to get to know some of you on this bus! Hope everyone had a good Monday...hopefully with less mucus coming from every available source in your head than mine!

Purdey, your charts do look very similar...
??????????????????????????

sounds very promising perdey, to keep you a little grounded though I think it's worth waiting to see what your temp does tomorrow before getting too excited

I'm alone all week because bf is on the late shift so ill be here to keep everyone's company

good to hear mumwannabe what's your ttc story?

First time ttc, on the 10th cycle and due AF Thursday (I think) 9DPO today so reaching out for the sticks and slapping my own hand away

Haha god the temptation to POAS (or multiple sticks if like me you havent had a proper cycle post pill so cover all bases with OPKS and PG tests) every few days is much worse than I expected it to be. I swore I would approach the whole TTC with a carefree wait and see attitude...That disappeared in about 2 weeks haha!

Same here. I'm doing doolally! Testing on Wednesday which could be either 14dpo or 7dpo depending which bloody OPK was correct. I'm symptoms spotting like crazy (did a test this eve and bfn, don't know why I did it) DH fitted some new lights at the weekend and I keep telling him I can 'smell the bulbs!

Sparkly so sorry to hear your news. Your positivity and strength are truly admirable! I hope you start to feel better soon xx

Purdey you absolutely crack me up! I'm more of a long-term lurker than a talker but your funny little comments and banter keep me smiling, so thank you!

Blimey Glad to hear you have a scan booked for tomorrow. I am also cd60 today and feeling more than a little bit shit! I'll be interested to see what happens and whether I should insist on the same! Good luck

I had positive opks on 12th Dec, 31st Dec and 11th Jan. FINALLY got ov cramps too on 11th & 12th Jan so think it may have finally ov'ed. WOOP!

If I'm right 7dpo today....... but i've been here twice before during this same bloody cycle so I'm not holding out much hope Although started spotting yesterday (pink and then brown) which is new for me.......

Purdey any words of wisdom?? x

I think the worst thing about ttc is feeling helpless, especially when it takes a long time. You can do everything right, dtd lots, eat healthily, track your ov, but at the end of the day it seems to be sod's law as to whether you get pregnant or not.

Surely nature should have evolved a better system than this by now!

nomio Definitely agree! Helplessness and symptom spotting are the worst. I'm convinced the dog is treating me differently at the moment...It's like he knows his time of prime attention is limitted now haha!

Oh my god will the wait never end. God bless all of you who have done this multiple times. It has definitely been the longest week and a half of my life to date.

I have systematically alienated most of my work colleagues through my hormonal state of wreckedness. Cramps, eyes like taps and feel like I could sleep on a clothes line. Af is about to arrive in all her catty glory I know.

Going home for an irrational cry. Then am going to give myself a good talking to about having unrealistic expectations concerning getting in the baby way first time trying.

Hrrrumph.
