Are you sick to the tits of baby-making sex? Or are you squelching with rabid lust when the lickle hand strikes cock o' clock? Have you already picked Sophia and Hugo as your baby names? Do you want to gouge out the smug eyes of the pregnant women in Sainsbo's? Do you shove balloons up your Boden sweater and pretend you have baby in your tum-tum? Have you already picked out your Farrow & Ball nursery paint? GREAT! Then you're just like us: We are the friendliest, wittiest, gayest, animal-lovingest, cervical-hunting women you will ever meet.

Come on, you frightened little trying-to-conceive mice...come join the fun on the Bumsnet bus. You know you wanna Smile

Wood and Pikz, I know you both had dramatic rises in temp during the 2ww, but can you tell me on what dpo, please? I'm 12dpo here and I have never, in 29 cycles os charting my temps, seen anything remotely like this at 12dpo Hmm

No Purdie - you continue to cross the line many times and people have had enough. Oh, and I am certainly NOT thick, love

Almost time for a new thread so let's get this one filled and move on.

I had a lie in this morning and forgot to set my alarm so took my temp at 10. Now I'm worried that I won't be able to tell if I've ovulated or not Confused

Fx for Oyster and everyone else approaching the end of their tww.

Rainy34 · 24/05/2015 10:38

purdie I dont have the first clue about temping but from what i see it looks like your temps have risen a lot, fx you do not need that donor after all xx

eskimo have a great bank holiday too , it looks lovely outside at the moment but yesterday started off nice and then went over cast, would like to go outside and tackle the weeds

Pixa hope your weather keeps good and you can get your barbecue

oyster your wedding pictures look lovely!!

Boris you a fun filled full on day, enjoy!!

Nomio hope nothing bad has happened, enjoy your walk around the gardens - hope the weather stays nice!!

Pixa · 24/05/2015 10:39

So much healthier. Grin

Welcome olivia to this here thread! How many dpo are you at the moment and what supplements are you taking? Can we see your chart? futile attempt at humour Grin

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 10:44

Purdie I didn't realise that was your chart! I rely on you lot to interpret mine as I'm new to temping but all I'm saying is it looks good and I have my fx for you.

Pica you have a beautiful, smooth flowing chart. I think mine resembles a heart monitor Confused

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 10:45

Pixa sorry! We're hell bent on changing your name!!!

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 10:46

As a short-time lurker, the rules of this thread totally baffle me.

I really understand people not liking posters who pop up after a couple of posts with a positive test result, but the rest of it is really confusing and more than a bit cliquey.

So people can get support up till they're pregnant and then have to leave or never mention they're pregnant? But some people can mention their pregnancies and even get asked about them? Is that just if they're ill? How ill do you have to be to be allowed to mention it? What if you're a bit ill? Or is it down to how popular you are?

And what about the definition of 'supportive'? Who judges that? Is there a minimum post limit before you're deemed to be part of this club?

And then what if you have a child already or have a procedure that will lead to pregnancy all booked? Is it boasting to mention that you have a child already and mention that child? Is it boasting to have the money for private treatment? Or is it ok for some and not others?

This is why people like me lurk and don't properly post. Too afraid of getting some unwritten and seemingly random rules wrong and being metaphorically spat or clawed at by someone with a power complex. It is all very Mean Girls. Popular doesn't mean always right. Or nice. Being nice to most doesn't justify being vile to others.

Pixa · 24/05/2015 10:47

Purdie I have learnt my lesson about getting people's hope up, however, I will say your chart seems to be doing interesting things. Have you changed anything this month?

Ooh, can I see your chart DizzyMerry? I feel like mine looks like the alps...

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 10:50

Here you go Pixa. My acupuncturist isn't very impressed with it and says "we need to work on it"!

eskimo aww poor Alfie! How's he doing today?

purds chart looks great eek! Feeling any different this month?

pixa so happy for those beautiful angry pubes love!! Grin yay!

dizzym I'm sure you'll be able to see the biphasic pattern anyway - one day shouldn't make a big diff I think?

Pixa · 24/05/2015 10:55

You look like your covering all basis with CoC though DizzyMerry which is the main thing! Especially around the positive OPKs. Smile

autonomousplum · 24/05/2015 10:58

dizzy I know very little about charts but that doesn't look disastrous to me? Smile Maybe get a shag in today too? Just in case?

Woolly84 · 24/05/2015 11:00

Agree with auto get a CoC in today if you can dizzy

Oysterbabe · 24/05/2015 11:02

When in doubt shag Smile

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 11:04

Thanks for reassuring me ladies. I just look at other peoples charts and mine look pale in comparison. We took the eod approach this cycle but I will get in some CoC tonight and I hope I get a solid smiley today. You've all made me feel so much better about it as it was beginning to stress me out

Disneygeek1 · 24/05/2015 11:12

knowing Ditto.

Woolly84 · 24/05/2015 11:16

Don't stress dizzy, there's all manner of pregnancy charts on FF, many with some crazy patterns! Yours looks good with the temp rise today.
I've got a boob question, my boobs always get pretty sore about a week before AF is due, and stay that way until she arrives. Yet no soreness yet this month and am 11 dpo now...anyone else had lack of a usual pre AF symptom before? I don't want to get my hopes up as nothing else feels any different, but just curious!
