sorry to hear that -night- ... goodluck for next cycle hunni Thanks x

DizzyMerry · 13/04/2015 00:41

I've had a very busy day and have only managed to get on here.

I'm so sorry night Flowers but you have your opks and thermometer to track ovulation and get to know your cycle better. Get yourself well in the meantime. You will get your bfp.

coffeenut · 13/04/2015 01:27

night I'm devastated for you Sad. Ruining your dinner too, it's rubbish! I'm glad you can find lots of positives though (and glad you can have that hot bath). The thermometer and opks will do the trick next cycle lovely. Have a good rest x

hi sweets, glad it's going well! Smile

merry & boris hope you're feeling better.

to everyone else. Will catch up properly tonight! Not much going here. 9 days into the shagathon, had my first positive opk this morning, actually think i will ov Weds rather than tomorrow as no temp fall yet. DH and I both come down with colds. But beautiful day here today and we are off to the playground. Happy Monday everyone, Flowers to all those who are having a rough time.

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 07:18

Thank you all you lovely ladies for your kind messages! :) CD1 today, will post my new stats as soon as I have worked them out. Am off work today so will make sure the stats sheet is all up to date :)

I wanted to start temping this morning but woke up at 04:30 so didn't get the three hours uninterrupted sleep. This happens quite a lot so not sure what to do about that?

loopylou1984 · 13/04/2015 07:28

Night I'd say it depends on how good you are at getting back to sleep?
My dh sometimes gets up at 5 so in order to temp accurately I set an alarm for 5am every day, it works for me as I can always fall back to sleep. You could do the same for 4.30? Xx

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 07:30

That could be an idea Sammy :) Normally I am very good at getting back to sleep so that shouldn't be a problem and my Fitbit has a silent alarm so shouldn't wake up DH. Wouldn't have worked today as I woke up due to hot flushes and couldn't get back to sleep but that's not the norm. Thanks for the tip lovely :)

lucieloos · 13/04/2015 07:36

Hey, just popping my head around the door!

Night, sorry AF has arrived, be kind to yourself. I really hope may is your lucky month

Sammy, welcome back from holidays, hope you had a fab time and are all nice and relaxed.

Vic, good luck with the iui exciting times!!

I am off for my first ivf scan today. I'm on day 8 of my cycle and have been doing the injections for 7 days, they are completely fine. I'm off to see how the follicles are growing and what sort of size they are. I am very nervous and just hoping for a positive outcome! Confused

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 07:46

That is so exciting Lucie! Very glad to hear that the injections have not been too terrible. Good luck today and let us know how it goes :)

loopylou1984 · 13/04/2015 08:03

Thank you Lucie Smile
Am feeling very relaxed after the holiday, just a shame I have to go back to work this morning!

Good luck with your scan, let us know how you get on. Xx

coffeenut · 13/04/2015 08:14

night Sammy's idea is a good one. Would like to add though, that I hardly ever get a full uninterrupted 3 hrs sleep and my temping is taken anywhere between 6am and 9am (when I get a lie-in!). I aim for 7am and that happens provided I don't get woken before by DH or DDs, or it's Sunday say and I can't be arsed. Last month's chart already resembles this month's chart very closely even with my crappy temping habits (and FF managed to pick up ov and the rest). I know everyone's different, but I guess my point is, don't get too worried about it at this stage, just record as best you can.

chops men and driving Hmm. Sounds familiar here, too. Haven't really found anything conclusive re the lopsided ov pain, except that it seems quite common to experience pain in one side only (not every month though...). Will have another look when I get the chance!

Very exciting lucie - I was wondering how it was all going! Good luck with the scan.

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 08:25

That's reassuring thanks coffee :) will start from tomorrow and see how it goes. Am mostly just wanting to work out when I ov and how long my lp is and I will be using opks as well so hopefully used together I should get an accurate picture!

NicNak22 · 13/04/2015 08:45

Oh night in so sorry, I really thought this was your month. Hopefully you will get over this bug and feel on top firm next month. X

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 08:56

Thanks Nic, I have heard third time lucky so feeling optimistic about my third cycle :)

Is your BFP sinking in yet lovely? :)

auxiliaryauroch · 13/04/2015 09:07

night I second the just temp as best you can scenario. Very bit of info helps and you will see some patterns even if messy. The extra stress of on time all the time probably negates the usefulness of temping by adding other factors into the mix. My ideal time is between 4-5 for practicality reasons to do with dc sleeping habits but I hardly ever get a full three hours before that. And sometimes I take at 3.30am and other times as late as 6am. My personal main criteria is doing it first thing when I wake up at whatever time so that I know that at least one factor is constant and that is not walking around or getting my temp up/down by moving. Grin

auxiliaryauroch · 13/04/2015 09:09

Sorry haven't had chance to read back yet but will try to and reply properly! Best of luck to all!

auxiliaryauroch · 13/04/2015 09:11

Oh and Flowers night

NicNak22 · 13/04/2015 09:13

night I did a CB digi this morning so is sinking in alot more today. So now just waiting until i can go to a mid wife.

In my case cycle 6 was the one but I think about of the advice from here (that I've only been on since Jan) really helped.

I bought opk for next cycle as I was certain I was missing my oV.

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 09:23

Thanks aux :)

So glad that the digi confirmed it nic :) do you know when you are likely to get an appt? Genuinely thought (as I think many of us do) that it would happen immediately but am learning to be patient now!

NicNak22 · 13/04/2015 09:28

That is exactly what I thought night I called this morning and no one wants to see me until I am 8 weeks!

So it's all on the pee sticks until then!

I would feel alot better if a doc could confirm it.

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 09:37

Have heard that that is standard now Nic and from what I understand the doc just uses the same sticks as you do to confirm! Understand why you want the reassurance though. It will all be fine :)

auxiliaryauroch · 13/04/2015 09:46

nic ! Flowers

DizzyMerry · 13/04/2015 09:53

Morning all.

Af arrived today but not unexpectedly, I had my pads on!!!

Can someone kindly link or point me in the direction of a bbt? I'm not sure which one to get.

I will be getting my day 21 blood results today. Need to really work out what to do from here.

#######DizzyMerry, ttc#2, cycle 14, AF/bfp due May 11#######

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 10:19

So sorry to hear of AF Merry :(

I believe that most people use one of the babymad thermometers (search babymad on Amazon and loads come up), I have the pink one :)

Fx for your results!

Have updated the stats, Dizzy we are due to POAS on same day!

DizzyMerry · 13/04/2015 10:28

Ooh night how exciting, let's do this and grab those bfp's! Off to get my bbt, thanks.

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 10:30

We can do this!
