Oh Banana - sorry to hear AF arrived. Mine has just greeted me as well. Sad

If we do get upduffed next cycle, we'll have Friday the 13th as the date of our LMP all pregnancy Confused

If I get upduffed next cycle my EDD will also be my brother's birthday. I LOVED the idea of having an EDD on DH's Birthday but sharing it with my brother - that just feels weird!

Cariad2014 · 13/02/2015 10:26

Victoria - just missed your post. I would so LOVE it if you got your BFP this month, after everything you've been through. Vivid dreams is definitely a positive sign - I've had them with both my BFPs.

Sending tentative congratulations your way Excited. Woop woop!

mummyofonesofar · 13/02/2015 10:31

Thought I did input it right down the bottom, nearly off the chart - oops can see the discarded box was still ticked from you saying the 6:30 one didn't count. Will amend now! Feel like we will have more or less got our window completely wrong and all that shagging was for nothing! Just been to the toilet and ewcm is back so best get back on it again tonight. Missed the last two nights as we were shattered.

Victoria Hope AF stays away for you and you get your BFP soon!

Sorry for everyone getting their AFs Flowers

BananaRaces · 13/02/2015 11:11

Thanks to everyone who is being so lovely. Good luck to you all! x

Sparkly123 · 13/02/2015 11:13

Morning Ladies! Smile catch up for me now....!

babybump thank you! I would estimate Mon/Tues now but just leave my seat as is if that's easy for you! Flowers

mrsGinger I love your name... I'm obsessed with ginger. Ha. I'm so sorry to hear AF has shown up However- great news about the LP... That is a real positive to take you are right! So let's keep all crossed for this next cycle!

Boosk sorry about AF Flowers have I asked before- have you asked the gp about this?

Austral I think whatever is normal for you. My sleep is constantly interrupted daily so I never use the tick box as that's normal for me.

Juney how frustrating for you.. I'm angry for you!!.. BUT tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow.. I will have everything crossed and what a saviour that your test is empty circle today-- the fertility gods are on your side! Ha. Look forward to Tomor, I'm sorry you had all this to deal with! Flowers

Spinning ahem, where's my cacao bites? My temp is much the same. Confused

Pikz hols sound great!! Distraction from the TWW! Fingers crossed for you lovely

Kissing still nothing today? Stay calm.. Ish... If you can...!!!

Purdey love! Yes it works it def works!!! I honestly wouldn't worry about cathetar. The clinic only give us enough for twice per cycle (eh yeh right who goes with that!) so we end up using the box too quickly and I imagine we won't get topped up again this time.. So I may have to start using syringe only on some attempts per month(if I don't get a BFP soon .. Wink ) I really don't think it is too different.. I mean, when you do it naturally, think of all the size variants and some people go deeper than others and get preggers so I wouldn't worry! I am going to look into if you can buy them cheaply at some stage if needed down the line.. What's your temp doing today? I don't know what to think on the report- I don't drink so it doesn't make a difference to me personally but if I did, I imagine I would probably try and give it a miss the first few months of development.. It's not really worth it is it, but that's just my opinion. However-- look at everyone's stories,it's hard to say. Oh just saw your chart. Ok.. FF you sneak you.. Well if it's consistent with previous then go with it?! So you are a further day past OV now!!! I continually tell dh to get the laptop or phone off his crotch!! It drives me insane!

Cariad oh no im so sorry for AF!! Two weeks and you are good to go lovely... Sending Flowers thanks for being so sweet. But you deserve this BFP... And it's coming for you!! I so hope your brothers birthday brings you extra luck next cycle!

ExcitedA3 a faint line!!! We must see?! Come on BFP!!! Fingers crossed for you! Any symptoms?

Victoria ok.. So this sounds, whispers exciting .. A little... Right?? So it's a waiting game now to see what happens next.. I have absolutely everything possible in my body crossed for you!!!! (I'm in a rather awkward position in doing so, so if your BFP could just hurry along that be lovely thanks...!)

Sparkly123 · 13/02/2015 11:15

Oh banana so sorry how frustrating and confusing!!! And to come so painfully -what a witch!! Anyway.. First off- toddle home yes! And not long to try again.. You are one step closer to your BFP Flowers

Sparkly123 · 13/02/2015 11:17

Spinning is your chart much the same today?? Still a high temp?

Here's my chart ladies.. Temps are still high ish.. I've never had such consistently high temps it's a weird one! Still no sore heavy boobs like I always get pre AF. But been having stabbing sharp pains in nipples off and on.. Never had before.. I wonder whether that's to do with my temps being so high. Maybe after the mc my body is just starting over.. With any luck! Ha

Thank you Sparkly.
FX for you, that sounds promising.

spinningirl10 · 13/02/2015 11:30

Sparkly, your chart is fantastic, I really do hope this is your month for a super sticky egg.
Ds home sick today, currently looking online at hotels in Reykjavik for New Year and then I will make those cacao bites??
Oh and here's my chart

juneybean · 13/02/2015 11:44

purdey open circle means I'm not having my LH surge yet, just done an IC and there's the tiniest line so I'm guessing I'll get a positive tomorrow or Sunday which is good!

autumn how many days since ov do you think you are?

Victoria the sperm bank say the liquid nitrogen only lasts for 7 days since they filled it which was Wednesday so I guess I have until Tuesday, but my mum works in a doctors surgery so if it came to it I could pay to get it refilled...

Fingers crossed for you!

Sorry to Cariad and Banana :(

Thanks everyone for your hand holding, it's much appreciated! Bloody DHL!

And here is todays chart for Purdey

Morning all! I've been a bit absent the last couple of weeks as I was feeling pretty down about ttc and was studiously trying to avoiding thinking about it.

Ive just spent the last hour trying to catch up and I''ve only just past the 3/4 point on the past thread (sparkly your OH eating a pie while getting his sample had me giggling!) but have to get moving in a sec so will finish catching up tonight. (Congrats to all those with bfps and major commiserations to those with af) Thought I'd post my own update quick before I go.

Ok, so first cycle of soy, and i actually ov'd late this month Confused Positive OPKs finally on CD 19 and 20 and ff tentatively put dotted crosshairs (as it always does!! Grrrr!!) at CD22 which is the latest I've ever 'ovulated'. I have no idea at all if this means soy did anything for me. 8DPO right now according to ff, haven't ovulated according to glow (says my bbt is constant and I 'should have seen a rise' - like I didn't know that, though there IS a rise of some kind) and not feeling any different to any other month.

Additionally I did see my GP on Wednesday, armed with my charts. He was very Nice and sympathetic and told us to try for another two months then go back for some tests if no luck.

Fingers crossed for everyone! Smile

Sparkly123 · 13/02/2015 11:51

Spinning I'm gonna say it- I'm excited by yours. A lot. Fingers hugely crossed those temps stay high. Oooh new year?! Eh how organised are you mrs!!!

purdeybirdie · 13/02/2015 11:59

NicolasSparkozy, if I were you I'd be sterilising those catheters in a pan of boiling water. When I bought my breast pump last year there were long plastic tubes that atatched to the pumping machine and they needed sterilising all the time. The official instruction in the box was to do it in a pan Smile I'm sterilising my syringes for re-use

Thanks for the chart, Juno. It looks decidedly uninteresting, which is great news what with the nomadic nature of your sperm Grin Hmm

Sparkly123 · 13/02/2015 12:03

Purds Mmm I never thought of that stupidly.. That's quite an option! Yes! Smile

purdeybirdie · 13/02/2015 12:04

Quietly, if you post a photo of your chart I will, as conductor of this bus, refund your ticket. Nice to hear of sympathetic GPs.

Who shook hands in an official networking capacity with frog-spunk hands? I love it! Grin

Sparkly123 · 13/02/2015 12:09

Purdey pie. In your opinion... Or Nancy's if she has one.. Me.. What should I do? Just wait for AF arrival or poas a certain day?

BowiesJumper · 13/02/2015 12:16

Happy Friday everyone!

Sorry to those whose AF has arrived. Booo!

So we dtd last night after the husband rolled in a bit worse for wear, but half of it landed on the bed when he pulled out Angry. Hopefully enough went to the right place too! Will do it again tonight though obvs.

I don't know if I'll know when (or if) I've actually ov'd because I don't think my temps are accurate.

But my SHINY PINK THERMOMETER HAS JUST ARRIVED! Grin

Sparkly123 · 13/02/2015 12:17

Good work Bowie for getting some in!!!! And wooo for new sparkly thermometer!

ExcitedA3 · 13/02/2015 12:21

What do we think???

CoffeeTwo · 13/02/2015 12:23

Temping experts, just to confirm as this is my first temping month, this drop means I'm out now right?

Rolling rolling rolling, the February bus is still rolling!
CoffeeTwo · 13/02/2015 12:24

excited I can't see on my mobile but fingers crossed! We need a bfp!

nightandthelight · 13/02/2015 12:25

Very faint but I can see it excited, can you get a more sensitive test?

australopithecus · 13/02/2015 12:27

Thanks spark purdey. I've removed the ticks and now I have some full dots again.
I have a non-existent first ever temp chart but in the spirit of sharing to satisfy purdeys nosiness and my own self importance Ff is predicting ovulation on the 17th based on bogstandard 14/28 day cycle. No positive OPKs yet but faint lines. Hmm
I had to take a screenshot and attach it because I'm stupid. My temps are terribly high aren't they purdey?
Congrats on the thermometer bowie Grin and congrats on the positive juney xf your (now German) spermies make it!!!!!!

Really hope this isnt posting over and over again cos I keep pressing post message and nothing happens. Major apologies if I am spamming the thread!!
