Summer heat, sperm and egg meet on, oh, the July Bus (wo-wo-wo)

[CarrotVan]

Tell me more, tell me more - did you pee on a stick?

THE STATS copied over from the June Bus

Definitely wait until the morning bonkers

Could still be too early raluca when is AF due?

itsme I know nothing useful but birchy had her first fertility appointment yesterday so might be more helpful. She's on the Temperature's Rising bus mostly but she's off away this weekend I think

I waited, Carrot. Still no joy. I must have got my ovulation day completely wrong . Am pretty much convinced it's a BFN now, else there'd be at least a hint of a line, surely. Gah.

That is so frustrating bonkers are you using opks? Might be worth it for a couple of months just to get to grips with your cycle.

I am CD 10 I think and expect to ov early next week even if FF thinks it will be the end of next week so I am using OPKs to see who is right

Af due on Sunday carrot. Today my temp is up by 0.3 taken an hour later than yesterday. I'm confused. Com

I was Carrot, they gave slightly odd readings (I'm not sure how long they are supposed to show positive for?) but I also had slight cramps so took that to be ovulation. Two weeks ago last Tuesday. A strong opk line on the Monday evening, very faint Tuesday morning. DTD on the Sunday and Tuesday (Monday we were both spark out!) and possibly weds, I can't remember.

Assuming I'm not upduffed yet, I'll continue to use them

Thanks for your advice ladies. Carrot I went back to talk about the prolactin thing and it can basically inhibit FSH hence no ovulation.

Repeat bloods and if still high then docs mentioned prolactinoma could be a possibility.

Apparently there's drugs I can take to counter the high levels (yay!) so feeling a lot better now about being on my 12th cycle. Sounds weird but knowing something might be wrong takes a bit of the pressure off it not happening naturally!

Sounds like positive steps Itsme. Hope all goes well for you.
Even though I ov'd early so am 14dpo period is not due til Sat or Sun so nervous even though I've had 4 positive tests now, arghh. Its never relaxing is it, this TTC lark??

Getting a little nervous. I've been tracking my temperature, mainly to know that I am indeed ovulating, and while I've had a sustained increase in temperature since ovulation (woohoo!), it's holding completely steady at 36.3 at 8 DPO. Does the temperature increase associated with the progesterone surge come later in the luteal phase?

Also, and apologies for the TMI, feeling like I'm getting a lot of discharge... and the wonderful fanny farts that go along with them. The fanny farts wouldn't be so bad if I didn't work in the world's quietest open plan office.

As long as the temp stays above ov temp it's ok. I had 2 days of temp dip but today I had a new spike/increase. I have a strange cycle.

Congratulations FussyHendricks your announcement was so casual I don't think anyone else noticed it!!

Thanks Raluca. Am very new to this temping thing, although not all that new to the ttcing thing...

haha thanks Violet!

Sorry Fussy Congratulations on your BFP and hope you have a sticky bean this time ????

Congratulations fussy that was a totally stealthy BFP

Congratulations fussy

Think AF is imminent, got all the signs - guess that means I'm off the bus...

Congrats fussy!

Still no AF. Still no BFP.

It's going to arrive tomorrow, isn't it? When it is of least convenience...

Congrats fussy!

This thread is going quiet now so everyone who hasn't already, hop onto the Hybrid bus (temperatures rising)
