Just popping on to send hugs to you Sparkly. So sorry you are going through this. Will be thinking of you tomorrow Flowers

Sparkly123 · 12/04/2015 23:59

Thanks Baker so lovely of you. hope you got that cake done!!

Baker47 · 13/04/2015 00:26

Aw, yes - got it all done just in time thanks! And it didn't taste bad for gluten free either - could be a convert Smile Must get back to healthy eating tomorrow though! Xx

Ginaissance · 13/04/2015 06:53

Be strong Sparkly. We love you Thanks

chopsface · 13/04/2015 06:55

Still no af, too anxious to sleep, feel like absolute shite.

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 07:07

Feeling ill or just anxious chops? Either way take care of yourself!

How are you doing this morning Sparkly, please let us know how the convo with the fertility clinic goes Flowers

Temping question: I didn't take my temp this morning as woke up at 04:30 to go to loo so didn't get the necessary 3 hours uninterrupted sleep. This happens on a fairly regular basis so what do I do?

purdiepie · 13/04/2015 07:16

Thinking of you, Sparkly. Don't be afraid xx

chopsface · 13/04/2015 07:16

This is why I've not tried temping night I wake up all the time in the night!

All night I was thinking that I won't be able to do iui as my holiday will get in the way. A lady who has just done iui informed me last night that they took bloods at her clinic in the 2ww whereas I assumed they left you alone! Had sweats in the night and woken up feeling tired and nauseous :-( not sure if I have cramps or a backache or both. Send out a search party a la melon!

Good luck today sparkly

purdiepie · 13/04/2015 07:19

Chops, when is AF due, love? In what way do you feel shite?

Night, if you regularly don't get three-hour blocks then temping isn't for you, love. The chart would be just too unreliable to ever be able to get excited near AF (and that's really why we all chart, right?) I would keep at it for a while and see how FF copes with the inconsistency.

purdiepie · 13/04/2015 07:21

Chops, there is no point in worrying about appointments clashing with holidays. You're not prepared to cancel your holiday are you? No. Then stop worrying, lovely. What is the problem you have with blood tests in the 2ww?

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 07:24

Oh chops can you talk to someone at the clinic about what exactly will be involved so you can work out how your holiday will affect it? Try to focus on the fact that you are going on holiday and that is a good thing and you will get your iui and your baby!

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 07:27

Thanks Purdie I do get chunks of at least three hours sleep but not usually in the run up to my getting up in the morning. I want to use the temping to work out my lp as you are concerned that it is too short. If I use opks to work out when I ov and then see how long it is till AF arrives will that be accurate?

purdiepie · 13/04/2015 07:34

Night, may I ask how you manage three-hour blocks throughout the night but not towards morning?

Mummyofonesofar · 13/04/2015 07:45

Good lucky today for Sparkly, ibeka & Rainy thinking of you all.

No temp rise here and CB dual hormone is negative so all the sex was wasted as it seems I'm not ovulating this month....

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 07:48

I tend to start sleeping much more fitfully from about 4-5 am Purdie and then alarm officially goes off at 06:45 but am usually awake by then. I sleep soundly from when I go to bed until early morning though.

Pixa · 13/04/2015 08:24

Are you awake enough, when you do wake, to be able to temp at 4-5am? Or would that just completely disturb your sleeping?

That might be a completely ridiculous suggestion

nightandthelight · 13/04/2015 08:26

No I know what you mean pixa! Will just have to give it a go and see what happens :) Woke up this morning convinced that I had taken my temp but it turned out it was a dream Grin

auxiliaryauroch · 13/04/2015 09:00

I can't keep up! puffs
Sorry just looked at this last page this morning and will try to find time a bit later to read properly. sparkly? I hope this isn't too serious? Fertility clinic? Really hope it's sticky! Flowers

spinningirl10 · 13/04/2015 09:08

Morning Smile

I think I've missed loads! Had a quick skim back.

Chops, phone your clinic today and see what they say about the 2ww. Still no sign of af? What sort of rough do you feel? Af related?

Night, no!! I'm so sorry af arrivedHmm it's a total bitch when you have symptoms and get your hopes upThanks

Sparkly, good luck today with your phone call. Having a private consultation is a fab idea, money well spent I think!

Rainy, good luck with your appointment today.

spinningirl10 · 13/04/2015 09:34

Sparkly, do you order your syringes on line for AI? I had a look in Boots yesterday but couldn't see them and didn't want to ask incase they asked what they were forBlush there's loads on Amazon but not sure what I need!

purdiepie · 13/04/2015 09:34

night all you can do is temp early doors like I had to when the tot was ill.

Good luck Ibeka and Rainy.

Mummyofonesofar · 13/04/2015 09:47

How often should you have an anovulatory cycle? My low post ov temps the last 2 cycles plus no ovulation after my peaks this month is worrying me.

purdiepie · 13/04/2015 09:49

Up to two a year.

Mummyofonesofar · 13/04/2015 10:02

Ok thanks Smile
