Reinstating the gin deck from a previous bus for AF arrivals, and stocking up on pineapple juice and Brazil nuts, fx for lots of BFPs this month.

Auf!!! Congratulations!!!!! Stats please :).

Word of warning re epo - it seemed to delay ovulation by a couple of days for me. It doesn't happen for everyone and if you have short cycles it probably doesn't matter, but it really annoyed me! Xx

My bloody app is telling me to poas today AngryConfused it's a poas addiction pusher!

DizzyNorthernBird · 20/07/2015 10:48

Wow auf that's amazing news! I'm so happy for you! You must be over the moon!

sammy I hadn't thought about deleting all cm off my chart, will give it a try now and see what happens.

Mummyofonesofar · 20/07/2015 10:55

Auf huge contratulations hun!!!

Have been away for the weekend. Will catch up on all the goss later! Grin

DizzyNorthernBird · 20/07/2015 10:59

Hmm deleted all the cm entries and it left my ov date as cd21. I think I'll just go with that for now. It will mean my blood test is potentially a couple of days early but the doctor did say that if 7 days before AF falls at a weekend then get a sample taken on the Friday, so I suppose this isn't any different?

DizzyNorthernBird · 20/07/2015 11:03

Do any of you know whether it actually matters if the cd21 test is a couple of days early? My appointment for bloods is still 7 days after ov.....?

loopylou1984 · 20/07/2015 11:04

That should be fine DizzyN, as long as it's not so early that ov hasn't happened yet or so late that hormones are going back down then it's fine :). Xx

auf congrats!

dizzyn I think a couple of days either way is ok.

sammy how do you feel? X

loopylou1984 · 20/07/2015 11:54

I'm ok thanks Boris - managed a proper breakfast this morning!

Feeling a bit light headed but guess that's probably from not eating much for a week!

Just want AF to arrive now so I can know when embryo transfer is likely to be. Xx

Nomio230 · 20/07/2015 12:42

Auf, that is brilliant news! Congratulations!

Sammy, glad you are feeling a bit better. I hope AF arrives soon. Not a comment you often hear on here!

RalucaMorena · 20/07/2015 13:18

Auf let's hope you're the first of many! Hope it's a sticky one fire you! :)

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 20/07/2015 13:24

Does anyone have the stats list. Just wondered if anyone's due to test around the same time as me.

I feel like I'm out already though as I have no symptoms again and with previous pregnancies I always have the urge to pee loads by now and lots of cm.

Definitely going to get some opks for next month just so I can get a clearer idea.

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 20/07/2015 13:24

Have you had any symptoms yet Auf

DizzyMerry · 20/07/2015 13:26

Congratulations auf.

Glad you're feeling better sammy. Hope AF arrives quickly and you can get on with the transfer.

Mummyofonesofar · 20/07/2015 14:11

STATS

Beautician there are a few testing around your date - I haven't seen boymama for a little while so probably not her. A few of us testing in the fist half of next week though. I want to test nnoooowwww!!!! But at 4DPO that is somewhat pointless Hmm

Kirjava · 20/07/2015 14:21

Thanks mummy

I want to test now. I feel pukey and crampy. Bleurgh.

Mummyofonesofar · 20/07/2015 14:30

Kir If I were you I would have started testing by now I think - how many DPO are you?

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 20/07/2015 14:41

Thanks Mummy.

I won't bother to test unless I'm late due to my usual lack of symptoms. My bfps only ever show up about 4 days after Af due for some reason.

Hairstylisttoboris · 20/07/2015 14:52

kir sounds promising :) sorry for you tho!

loopylou1984 · 20/07/2015 14:55

Well I guess my stats have changed, but I don't have any new dates yet :(. Xx
