pixa helpful, supportive comment from your mum there. Are your lps normally that short? I also have short cycles (23/24 days) and my doc doesn't seem worried, but I do have at least a 10day lp

sammy welcone back

queen Dizzyness sounds like a symptom to me.

autonomousplum · 27/05/2015 09:13

pixa CD buddies. Supershort LP buddies. Temp drop buddies (Was yesterday for me and up by .1 today but not looking good either tbh). Are you sure we are not the same person? Hmm

megarobotdiscoparty · 27/05/2015 09:16

pixa I sometimes wonder where we would all be without the infinite wisdom of others.

queen dizziness was definitely one of my first symptoms! Fx...

nightandthelight · 27/05/2015 09:17

Argh just posted on the fostering board about fostering in rented accommodation and it may not be possible as could be considered a business!

nightandthelight · 27/05/2015 09:18

So sorry for temp drop pixa and loving the helpful suggestion from your mum Flowers

Pixa · 27/05/2015 09:20

Autonomousplum I am not convinced. Sorry to hear you think it's not looking good this month for you too.

I've almost finished my research on supps so DH and I are going to get spending at the end of this month. Hopefully we will find the right balance.

I tend to ovulate between CD15/16, slow temp rise, then on 7DPO dip to our below the cover line, rise a little bit, then three or so days later AF arrives.

Analysis based on two months temping only though.

I need to have a good catch up on everyone else's news later today. I don't mean to be neglectful and self-absorbed! Sorry. Flowers

Pixa · 27/05/2015 09:21

Night, I could mention it to one of the SWs at work if I catch any today?

nightandthelight · 27/05/2015 09:22

Thanks pixa you are a star :)

Pixa · 27/05/2015 09:25

No worries, I don't know who will be in the office but if there isn't one today, I should be able to find out by the end of the week. Smile

ThePug · 27/05/2015 09:42

Morning all. Sorry for temp drop Pixa and a maddening comment from your mum! Hope you can control your homicidal tendencies and we don't see you on the news later!

Purdie I did have a temp rise this morning but it wasn't as much as I thought it would (should?) be - .35 deg F. And not nearly as high as other temps earlier in the month. Sigh. Birthday is this Sat, 30th May. I get home from the airport early hours so plan to spend a good chunk of the morning in bed sulking about being 30 and not pregnant

Queen Excited for you and your dizziness! When are you due to poas?

sammy Who was the dad in your dream then? Great to come home to the info pack. Did you have a good break?

night That would be totally ridiculous if fostering was classed as a business for rental purposes. Would that just be something you have to get cleared with the landlord, or is it to do with council tax/business rates and potentially having to change the class of use? I hope it's not the case, anyway.

nightandthelight · 27/05/2015 09:53

I think it just needs to be cleared with landlord pug, hope that he is reasonable! I think the business thing is stupid, I can't believe anyone fosters for the money (it's below minimum wage for pities sake and is just meant to cover the cost of the child)!

Morning all.

Back from Devon/Cornwall where we had a lovely time, including a night wild camping out on Dartmoor. Very relaxing and has renewed my desire to move to the country....

mummyofone I was so so sad to read your news and am sending you all my love and support. It is perfectly normal to want to kill the entire world where you are right now. There are a few of us here who have been there and would do anything to stop the pain for you right now. We are here if you need us. And it will get better with time, I promise. Xxx

purdie and oyster I don't believe it! Two bfps! Huge congratulations.

mega hi waves

I have read back the old bus and so sad to see there was aggro and so pleased it's over now and I was away for it. It made me sad to read.

In my ttc news, it is cd5 here. After I posted on Friday afternoon, I did an IC and got a faint line. I did three more from two different batches that got the same. On Saturday morning, I did two, one with a line one without. Then AF arrived Saturday afternoon. I was very glad I was away so couldn't give it much thought but now I'm wondering what the hell was going on.... I feel like I can't trust pregnancy tests now!

ibeka · 27/05/2015 10:31

Ps night I'm so excited about your fostering!!!

lucieloos · 27/05/2015 10:59

Night, how easy is it to foster? Can you still keep your full time job as well? Could you tell me a bit more about how long it all takes etc?

loopylou1984 · 27/05/2015 11:02

Lol pug, it was a random with no face... Creepy!

Ibeka - that sounds like a chemical pregnancy... I think they occur when an egg is fertilised but implantation doesn't happen for some reason. From what I've read on mumsnet they will cause a positive test but then af will arrive. Xx

Lucie in work at mo so won't be able to do a reply justice! Promise to get back to you this evening though :)

Queenbee30 · 27/05/2015 11:37

thanks oyster, boris and mega...trying not to get my hopes up, at the same time as getting all my hopes up Hmm

ibeka welcome back. sorry for your + confusion and fx for this cycle for you.

pug well I think I should be poas on Sunday, but Glow app has pushed me back to the 7th June. I'm going to try to hold on until then....Confused

night fostering sounds like an amazing, selfless thing to do. how wonderful Flowers

pixa sorry for your insensitive mum comment. Silly mums Cake and Wine

dojo123 · 27/05/2015 11:40

Morning.. I just wanted to let you guys know that I had my 12wk scan this morning and all is progressing well.
I look forward to seeing you all get your BFPs and your scan updates in the future.

ThePug · 27/05/2015 11:52

Welcome back ibeka So pleased to hear you had a good trip. How very strange about the 4 (or was it 5) positive tests before AF though. With my very limited knowledge, I agree with what sammy said about cp. I think you've just got to try and reason though that if you hadn't tested early you would be none the wiser. AF will be gone soon though and then you can get back on it Smile

Queen But 7th June is so long away! I've never used Glow so don't really understand how it can suddenly decide to change your test date; does that mean it has decided you ov'd later that originally thought? I will keep my fx for you anyway, and if you get more symptoms over the course of the next week I'm sure nobody will accuse you of jumping the gun if you test before then

dojo that is lovely news I may have snuck a look at your pic on the other thread too, beautiful little baby

Queenbee30 · 27/05/2015 12:05

pug i think it moved my ovulation back as I wasn't getting any highs or peaks from the cbfm, but I did have ewcm roughly at the right time. All too confusing. I know I should temp really, so maybe I will next cycle.

dojo123 · 27/05/2015 12:15

Thanks pug

DizzyMerry · 27/05/2015 12:25

Purdie your list of people made me chuckle. It's exciting news so why not?! Will go eod from tonight and keep doing the opks.

Pixa sorry for the temp drop Sad I'm sure that comment from your mum didn't help, although she probably meant well. All this 'relax' 'stop trying so hard' is rubbish. I really believe there is a time for everything and your time will come.

Plum sorry it's not looking good for you. Have you managed to lengthen your lp?

Queen fx dizziness is a symptom for you.

Night hope you manage to get advice about fostering and rented accommodation. I'm really baffled that it could be seen as a business.

Pug will go at it eod now but I'm rather disappointed that we've been dtd and no ov to be seen Confused my temp doesn't rise too much either but my acupuncture lady said some people do have a slow rise and it's not a cause for concern.

Ibeka sorry I also thought cp when I read your post. Onwards and upwards to the next cycle.

Sammy what a creepy dream Confused

Dojo that's great news and I've also had a look at your lovely little baby's pic.

Where's Nomio?

Nomio230 · 27/05/2015 12:43

Omg, I leave you for 2 days & you all go & get upduffed!

I am here, lovely Dizzy. Been really busy with DH the last couple
of days, but I am all yours again now. Grin

Purdles, massive, massive congratulations! I so hope you have a sticky little bean in there.

Oyster, yay for your honeymoon BFP! I had a feeling this would be your month.

Night, I have been learning to drive on & off for about 5 years, but have just bought myself a car & a determined to see it through this time. I definitely want to be driving before I have a baby.

Woolly, 5 days in a row when you are not OV?! Shock We haven’t done that since the early days, about 10 years ago!

Welcome to the bus, Mega & Meatball . I hope your time here is short.

Mummy, I am so, so sorry that you are going through this. Please feel free to rant as much as you need. X

Yay for your scan, Dojo*. I am so pleased all is going well.

I don’t have much to report. CoC has gone really well. I am now 1DPO & we are going to DTD again this afternoon just to be sure, so that will be Fri, Sun, Mon, Tue (OV day) & today. I have a good feeling about this month for some reason, so fingers crossed!
