So you're a hedge-fund manager who wears Reiss suits and Clarks shoes but the allure of nappies and nannies is growing stronger? Yep. You're on the right buzz. We're heading straight for Knocked-Upsville and we've got an on-board telly for watching OBEM and slagging off the scrotes who go to th'ospickal clutching a Lidl carrier bag. Come and join us. Don't be coy. Don't forget yer lube and soy.

Haha purdey Grin
pinning too early no?!!

PurdeyPie · 25/03/2015 20:35

Aaargh! Friends! Please help! I just went to the bog and found proper ewcm on the paper, but when I inputted that onto my chart FF have given me a dotted line and moved my ov day back a day to CD13! That makes me 14DPO! Please will you look at the before and after photos (and don't witter on about not being able to see on your fecking phones!)

Why would the appearance of EWCM at the very end of a cycle change the day of ovulation?? Confused

Purdey. ....I say this with love. Do a fecking test tomorrow! You'll get a decent line at 14dpo! I'm not 100% reliant on ewcm as I once had it the day after my period ended....There was loads ...It hit the floor in the shower Blush

spinningirl10 · 25/03/2015 20:39

Purdey, I looked at your charts but I have no idea why FF would change ov date due to ewcm now. I do love your chart though!!

Sammy, don't be down, without wanting to get your hopes up, I've heard so many ladies say that they had af pains and then a bfp, especially at only 7 dpo. I hope this is true for you.

Nomio230 · 25/03/2015 20:41

Weird. Most of what FF does is a complete mystery to me. Sorry Purds

Eskimo, I normally get it for a couple of days, but I think it is definitely possible to just get it for a short while. Maybe your cycles are finally coming back, yay!

Sparkly123 · 25/03/2015 20:43

What is FF doing Purds?! What the eck? And what -- ewcm?! What?! What?! TEST Tomor you mad woman!!!!

Woolly84 · 25/03/2015 20:44

purdey my charting skills are non existent but the change of ovulation date doesn't make sense, stick with the earlier chart methinks!

Sparkly123 · 25/03/2015 20:45

I would totally have said you OV on day 13 given that huge dip Purds ?!

Giddymamma · 25/03/2015 20:47

Hmm purds. . Having reviewed your charts, I think ff is TELLING YOU TO PEE ON A FF'ING STICK!

But I'm no expert.

loopylou1984 · 25/03/2015 20:47

Purdey - I really wanted to help you because your always helping the rest of us so much.... But the more I hear about it the more I think the FF chart analyser is a nutter!
All I can think is it's taking the cm as some kind of pg/af symptom and thinks whichever will happen sooner due to it??

Rrr spinning, that would be amazing. Sure doesn't feel like it though. Xx

PurdeyPie · 25/03/2015 20:48

Merry, sweetheart, I was joking about the reflexology. Promise. What the hell do I know? Besides, walking on Lego wrecks.

Pinning, that is unbelievable. The line is clear on your Superdrug one. I hate FRERs.

purds sorry I almost made you cry.

I have no idea about your chart. I don't even temp....rebel POAS woman, dammit.

Had to overdraft the card again for fuel - banks not going to love us, but shit happens. They'll wait til pay day.

I've have ov like pain on both sides of my abdomen now. Twins!!

Giddymamma · 25/03/2015 20:49

Pinning, try again in the morning. Your pee might be all diluted. Will keep fingers crossed for you.

Just off to bang the kitchen, as that's how we roll in this bus.

DizzyMerry · 25/03/2015 20:51

purdeyI have never been able to get into these charts so I'm afraid I can't help with that but I do agree that you should POAS

cymonsarah · 25/03/2015 20:52

Thanks Purdey x

I'm now feeling terrified,feel like it's never going to happen Sad

spinningirl10 · 25/03/2015 20:53

Oh Pinning, that sucks! Sad

PurdeyPie · 25/03/2015 20:55

Thanks to those who replied. Please don't tell me to POAS. Look at those open circles. Do you know quite how inconsistent my waking times have been this week with a teething and poorly chimp? Example: this morning was 8.10am (after exactly three hours of sleep but having sipped on water three times in that period Hmm); yesterday was 5.40; the day before was 4.10 and the day before that was 6.35. I simply cannot get excited about lofty-looking temps with such variations in time Sad

Sammy, I like your attempt at an explanation for this madness. Clever 'un, you. I'm sorry I seem to have missed your post. What dpo are you again?

Nomio230 · 25/03/2015 20:56

Giddy, you crack me up!

Purds, I had a quick Google but it didn't help much. There seem to be women who get ewcm before AF and before a BFP.

Don't give up just yet Sammy, It could be implantation. FX for you. Flowers

PurdeyPie · 25/03/2015 20:59

MrsB, twins come from the same ovary (fraternal or identical). You are clearly ovulating whilst simultaneously about to suffer a ruptured appendix

Giddy, you look like a boss-eyed Ricky Tomlinson in them there gigs

Thanks, Nomio! So kind of you to Google Smile I am bound to be in the percentage of birds for whom EWCM at CD 27 precedes a great fat fuck-off period

frogbubbles · 25/03/2015 21:08

Thanks woolly, had a lovely time back home now, cleared smelly teenagers out of living room and now planted in front of tv with MasterChef on.

Congratulations allatonce!! Here's to a healthy happy nine months Smile

Aw mrsb that is such a lovely thing to say. I feel the same way so pleased to have all you lovely ladies to offer support and advice.

Babs sorry AF arrived, cake and processco sounds like a plan to me

Eskimo your bus powered by Nutella and cm has me chuckling away! DS said what's funny??!? Erm never you mind kiddo

Purdey I hate FF I've had a similar thing added ewcm and the stupid app have me at 4dpo rather than 14. I give up with charting.

Pinning I second purdeys hate of the FRER, and maybe your pee was diluted (sorry forgot who said that first) maybe try a digi one tomorrow or day after with FMU?

Giddymamma · 25/03/2015 21:11

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Bums net is blooming brilliant!!!!

lovely lady, how many days post af will you have to be before you will pee? 62?

Giddymamma · 25/03/2015 21:14

When are we all setting up home together? Oh is grumpy and you lot are so lovely and much more fun. I'm crap at housework. Let me in anyway.
