I've tried shutting them out of the bedroom but they just scratch madly on the door all night....we rent and we're not supposed to have them in the first place so can't have cat-scratched doors :)

Def should have something on FF to reflect that!!!

dojo123 · 25/02/2015 11:48

Oh Purds sorry for the temp drop.

Busying myself at work so hopefully I can get through the next 7 days without going too mad symptom spotting who am I kidding!
Just had a decaf latte, first fake coffee of the year. DH has given up coffee for lent so we don't have any in the house (normal or decaf)

Sparkly123 · 25/02/2015 11:57

Congrats rough fantastic news!!!

mummy sorry you feel AF is imminent! Sending Flowers maybe your temp will shoot back up Tomor. You never know...!

Purds so sorry about temp drop.
Maybe post clomid cycle will be your lucky month?!?.. I'm with you in march lovely!!! Has AF actually arrived?!

Dojo fingers crossed for you lovely. Chart looks good just now!

Sammy ah so confused! This is my first cycle using CB dual hormone for the CB trial, so this is an absolute guess .. I would prob count it as peak day if you got two peak results.. But maybe someone with more knowledge of those tests could offer better advice!

Sparkly123 · 25/02/2015 11:58

scrunchie confusing for you!! Not long till Saturday.. Try your best to hold on! Three more days Flowers

dojo123 · 25/02/2015 12:03

Sparkly I think you've got me muddled, it wasn't me asking about the cb monitor! Xx

scrunchiemount · 25/02/2015 12:22

Sparkly thank you!!!Smile

mummyofonesofar · 25/02/2015 12:27

I'm not sure Sparks, it was a very big drop: My chart

Sparkly123 · 25/02/2015 12:27

Sammy so sorry lovely!! It was only little Tessie !! Sorry! Tessie see post toSammy above!!!

Dojo ohh thanks! Love a quinoa kale combo. Asparagus is a fav of mine. Shame about the stinky pee after Hmm

Sparkly123 · 25/02/2015 12:33

mummy that is a huge drop you are right. But how many dpo are you and when is AF actually due? I think I have developed a new perspective on charting this month.. I really feel anything can happen, I've had it all, so I guess I'm trying not to get too hung up on it. But whether that will transpire who knows!!!... I've seen charts like yours drop to coverline then shoot back up in pregnancy, And obviously have also seen a huge drop then AF arrives. Both outcomes are possible, and no matter how much we analyse, we just ain't gonna know until either AF arrives or we get a BFP. I know it's so hard, but try try try to focus on getting through each day with distractions etc. I know the TWW is hellish, but you just never know what's round the corner Flowers

spinningirl10 · 25/02/2015 12:37

Congratulations roughGrin

Mummy and Purdey, sorry about the shit temp drops. I hate the end of the tww, despite knowing af was arriving last cycle I turned into a crazy loon with my overthinking and symptom spotting!

Dojo, lovely recipe, I make something similar quite oftenSmile

auroraboringalis · 25/02/2015 12:43

Indeed spark The charts just invite us to analyse don't they. And we really know buggerall until bfp or AF. Hmm

scrunchiemount · 25/02/2015 12:44

mummy sorry about the drop, but you never know....the body does very weird things. and if not there's always next month!

I hate this! I have zero symptoms of AF but also zero PG symptoms. Only some random sharp twinges yesterday that didn't feel anything like AF cramps. No sore bbs, no nausea, nothing. No SS for me!!

mummyofonesofar · 25/02/2015 12:48

Sparkly Thanks for the pep talk - you are very sweet. I am 12DPO, CD30, in the last 7 months AF has arrived on average CD28, with longest being last month AF arriving on CD32/1 - this is the month I took pregnacare which lengthened my cycle - which didn't run out until CD16 this cycle, then I switched back to seven seas. So I guess I am anywhere between 1 days late - 2 days before AF. So by Friday/Saturday I should have a more definitive answer. It was so horrible getting the drop as last night I turned to DP and said "I think we have done it" I felt pregnant but all BFNs so far.

dojo123 · 25/02/2015 12:56

Just felt me and DH have been eating, not rubbish exactly, but could do better! So am on the hunt for lots of lovely recipes with plenty of different veggies for their vitamins.

scrunchiemount · 25/02/2015 13:02

Actually can I ask a question - this is my second month seriously ttc but it's my first month temping and charting etc etc so I don't really know what's normal. I vaguely tracked AF before but not mega strictly - I am pretty sure she usually shows up bang on day 28 (she definitely did last month) and I generally have a couple of days' spotting beforehand and cramps. I always assumed I O'd around day 14/15 due to usually getting O pains and sometimes a tiny bit of spotting. However this month due to temps I know I didn't O til day 18 - so does that mean AF may well be late regardless this month? I suspect it might have been a random late O due to stress but I obviously don't know as don't have much tangible data to compare it to and I don't want to get all excited tomorrow thinking AF is late when she actually just isn't due yet (assuming she stays away tonight that is).

Anyway, just thought it would be interesting to hear what you thought/other experiences!

juneybean · 25/02/2015 13:04

I think so scrunchie but then again maybe you have a shorter lutesl phase, if you haven't been charting before it's possible 18 is your ov day

Sparkly123 · 25/02/2015 13:04

mummy totally sympathise.. Understand it can literally change in an hour! You can feel positive this is the month.. Then that can change with a temp drop/spotting etc etc.. Just hang tight lovely. It's hard.. But worth it Flowers

dojo spinach! For all you ladies wanting to up the Bvits.. It's good for B6!

Spinning how you doing lovely? You can't be far behind me CD wise now? I had a lovely quinoa mix the other day- quinoa, spinach, shredded kale, pomegranate Blush , pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds, avocado with coconut dressing. Yes. Smile

tessiegirl · 25/02/2015 13:05

Haha! Thanks Sparkly! Don't worry!

Update ladies...I called Clearblue and they say I should count yesterday as my first peak day even though I didn't get a peak until the evening Smile

scrunchiemount · 25/02/2015 13:06

thanks juney, yes you could be right - i just always assumed I O'd earlier as I had O symptoms around day 14 and 15 - guess I'll just have to see what next month brings me.

Sparkly123 · 25/02/2015 13:06

Purds have you started that new job already.. Shock hope you and N-dolly are ok today

Sparkly123 · 25/02/2015 13:07

Ok so it was a good guess then Tessie just shows OPK twice daily is worthwhile!

auroraboringalis · 25/02/2015 13:12

Spinach and feta things! Phyllo pastry things! Soup things! Pie things! feck dang I'm hungry
