Wish I would hazard a guess and say you are right about day 15 but hard to tell with so few temps.

If in doubt DTD though :)

MaybeMrsMum2016 · 06/05/2015 16:51

Welcome new ladies!

FX for everyone with symptoms and/or late AF. I really want to see you all over on antenatal. Thanks for the extra congrats from you all. It's quite a surreal feeling.

If anyone wants advice or anything, just ask Smile

sarah1391 · 06/05/2015 16:59

Need help! What does EWCM actually look like? Pretty sure I've just seen a little bit...last DTD on Monday morning, does that mean I'm ovulating today? Really confused...

parsnipbob · 06/05/2015 17:18

Sarah - looks like egg White. Clear, stretchy and slippery.

No doesn't necessarily mean you're ovulating, I get EW a few days before O or sometimes the day after.

If in doubt DTD, won't hurt!!

parsnipbob · 06/05/2015 17:19

This is also why it's good to temp, that way you can just DTD til your temps rise. My CM is really random so I'd find it hard to rely on just that. I always DTD when I see egg white though!

sarah1391 · 06/05/2015 17:27

Thanks parsnip...pretty sure it was like that but maybe a bit more watery? Wont be able to DTD for a few weeks as DP is away for work so hopefully there are still swimmers lurking about from then!

parsnipbob · 06/05/2015 17:36

Oh I see, yes they can stick about for 5 days I think :)

And you may have already ovulated in any case, my body does weird things all the time...

sarah1391 · 06/05/2015 17:42

Fx :) i'm starting to think mine does too haha maybe i'm just hoping i've ovulated as it's our first time ttc and i'm really impatient!

Does look like ov wish! Hopefully FF will confirm despite not having the six temps beforehand :)

Thanks for adding me to the stats, I'm 29 and ttc dc3.

AmyFlame1986 · 06/05/2015 18:35

Hi all! I'm really sorry I have been so busy with work (boring!) that I have lost track but wil read back! Maybe congratulations on your BFP.

In my news, I am in the 2ww, I'm 5dpo (I think!). This is my first 2ww and my god they are annoying.... I'm sure my boobs will be sore the amount I prod them and think to myself 'are they sore'... TTC makes you do weird things!

wishiwaspregnant · 06/05/2015 18:44

Thanks got the update on the stats night any sign of AF? Hope it's a BFP for you!!! Thanks parsnip and night for your comments on my chart. Hopefully tomorrow's temp will confirm as I think I read somewhere you needed 3x rises to confirm.
On another note, sure I may have read it on this thread or somewhere else about Brazil nuts and pineapple... I heard you should eat 3x Brazil nuts and pineapple (core especially) to aid implantation and thickening uterine lining. Is this true? Anyone else doing this? I just did a food shop and came home with 4x pineapples and bag of raw Brazil nuts. Thought I'd give it a go! Though I am juicing the pineapple to save time!

nightandthelight · 06/05/2015 18:47

I have indeed heard that wish although I have also read that the pineapple is not particularly effective (although certainly can't hurt). I have my Brazil nuts ready for next cycle :)

No sign of AF, my temp in the morning is key I guess, if it's gone up I'm not out if it's gone down then I am out!

Thanks night you're a Star
And yes, any news on af? We're on tenterhooks (or tented hoods, as I apparently used to say as a kiddiwink)!

autonomousplum · 06/05/2015 18:49

Whoops xp! Smile

nightandthelight · 06/05/2015 18:49

Love it autonomous!

DizzyMerry · 06/05/2015 18:53

I'm sure you have ov wish but keep an eye on tomorrow's temp. I had pineapple core from 1dpo to 6dpo this cycle and 3x Brazil nuts throughout tww. Don't know why I stopped the pineapple at 6dpo!

kurama · 06/05/2015 18:54

Thanks for the welcome back ladies.Grin

parsnipbob · 06/05/2015 19:20

Night fx for you lovely!

nightandthelight · 06/05/2015 19:21

Thank you lovely ladies :) please don't be too disappointed if my temp drops tomorrow!

Evening everyone, welcome to all the newbies. The bus is lovely and full and I feel bad I haven't been around to greet you all individually.

Massive congratulations maybemrs ! tell me your secret Grin

I needed a while away, been feeling downer than I realised. Trying so hard to stay upbeat. Convinced AF is on its way again sadly, and was so hoping for a bfp, I was going to test Saturday which would have been my nans birthday but really don't think I want the disappointment. Going to stick to my guns and wait Til AF arrives, or at least wait til the 15th I've decided.

Sorry for those who have been got by AF x

parsnipbob · 06/05/2015 19:23

Sorry you are feeling down Southy Flowers

Southy84 · 06/05/2015 19:30

nightandthelight · 06/05/2015 19:32

You will get there!
