Geek - how embarrassed am I? talk about teaching your Granny to suck eggs! so sorry. Does that mean though that you can solve my problem? I am trying to move my software to another computer without losing my past cycles, how can I move them?

Temp dropped by .3 this morning

MrsMc??? Confused... did someone steal my little pink book and transfer all my temps online?? ...

Don't think they did... well at least I hope they didn't!!

Is it cos I helped MUM03 along by posting hers as a link to be a nice friendly Mumsnetter???

greedyforbabies · 30/01/2007 22:16

shes a bit daft isnt she ready? i went straight onto the charts only thread to see your chart and it wasn't there. her pregnancy brain has obviously kicked in early!

BBWBabeLisa · 31/01/2007 08:47

Ahhh I must confess I thought the MUM03 chart was urs too ready.

Can anyone answer this for me? When you BD early in the morning (i.e before the time when you normally temp) do you record it as that day or the day before (and kinda class it as part of the previous night)?

BBWBabeLisa · 31/01/2007 09:05

Oh and good luck for your blood tests today greedy. Will be thinking of you.

I didn't read the blurb, just saw the name and hit the link - sorry Ready!

Greedy - I'll be thinking of you today hon, I'm willing everything to be fine. Sounds bizarre but I know if you are fine, I will be too. Huge hugs to get you through.

BBW - I'd count it as the day of, not the night before (unless it was all night, into morning, that would be complicated! )

I'm not reallt being nosey but want to see what the charts look like as thinking of starting myself- how can you look at them? xx

mum03 · 31/01/2007 10:07

LOL....

Sorry for the confusion over the chart, I hopelessly failed to post a link, still not sure how to do it, but ready came to my rescue.

Ready - Thank you for being a fantastic mumsnetter, I thought it was great that you were being helpful and posting the link for me. I am now nosey and wonder if there is a reason for not posting a chart? Do you do the chart manually with pen and paper?

mrs! you shouldn't say that if everything is ok for me then it will be for you. i am trying to be realistic, i had more bleeding again today so not expecting great news. my level was a measley 418 on monday so needs to be at least 600 today (apparently it has to go up by at least 1.5 times).
mrs - you will be fine i am sure! my first 2 pgs were fine with quite a lot of spotting/bleeding to begin with dont forget, so i am sure yours will be too. the bleeding has just been very different this time.

thanks for thinking of me too BBW and lottie. BBW - i havent had an early morning shag for ages! i am jealous!actually......come to think of it i havent had a shag for ages! obviously it probably wouldn't be advisable at the moment, and would probably get very messy! sorry TMI i know!

Ready · 31/01/2007 13:34

Mum03, tee hee, they've been looking at your chart thinking it was me ... if you get your BFP I will gladly take it for you ... Nothing sinister in not posting my chart, I am doing it the old fashioned way at the moment. My thermometer came with a little graph/chart booklet which I have been using. Much easier to hopelessly stare at my chart, just before going to sleep ... if no joy after 6 months I shall be getting the TCOYF software. So one more cycle til everyone can see my charts

TCOYF Q: Does it allow you to do all your back-charts??

MrsMcJnr · 31/01/2007 14:02

Greedy, hope it is all going well, thinking of you.

Ready - I tried to backdate but couldn't, you might be better at the software than me though

Hello to the Newbies on here. This has been quite a successful thread in the BFP stakes since it began in the Autumn (can't remember the stats now ) hope you get your BFPs soon.

greedyforbabies · 31/01/2007 14:05

thanks mrs. how are you feeling today? has it sunk in yet? have you told anyone else in RL?

greedyforbabies · 31/01/2007 14:06

and when are you going to change your name to mrsmcbump?

MrsMcJnr · 31/01/2007 14:19

You must be psychic Greedy I was just saying to Ready on another thread that I didn't feel quite ready to change my name or my profile yet, think I'll wait to get a positive from the Drs test next Tuesday. It will be won't it? Am I really only 4+3? I'm even willing myself to get MS to make me feel more pregnant. That said, I am totally off sweet things and junk food so something's different! In RL only DH, friend from Hen and Chooster know. Chooster is in the twilight zone between MN and RL and it's so great to have her to talk too. I was meant to have lunch with her today but I'm too choked with cold to go to work today so I'm disappointed.

Planning to tell the families on Mother's day as I should have had 10 week scan by then) and hope to feel more secure that it is all real.

greedyforbabies · 31/01/2007 14:22

how sweet, telling them on mothers day! you first mothers day as a mum! gotta go and wake dd up and get ds from nursery and then kill an hour or so before i get my results!

MrsMcJnr · 31/01/2007 14:24

Hope the wee ones help to keep you busy! x

Hi ladies,

Good luck with the tests Greedy, big hugs to you.

MrsMc - I don't think spotting is that unusual in the early weeks. I had it with all 3 of mine. Doesn't stop the worrying though, knowing it can mean nothing.
Good luck.

I'm feeling a bit better. Coming upto that exciting time again. Started using the opks yesterday as I was so impatient. No positives yet. I got a pack of 20 just in case. I haven't managed to do the bd'ing every other day as I had intended.
TMI warning........

On our last 2 attempts I was post AF and no CM at all. Consequently DH was sore after the second nights action. And that was before we got close to Ov, lol. I'm giving him a break to recover in time for the crucial days.

Better start that grapefruit juice .

Off to chart spot...

MrsMcJnr · 31/01/2007 14:27

3cats - glad to hear you are feeling better. Sounds like you need some pre-seed! I have 2 sachets if you would like them, CAT me and I'll send them to you and if you get your BFP this cycle, I'll be taking some credit

OP posts:
3catstoo · 31/01/2007 14:36

Thanks for the offer Mrs. Very kind of you. I do have 2 applicators left but DH is not so keen. I guess I could do it without him knowing again.

I'm starting to think I should have temped this cycle now. I won't know if I've Ovd without my temps.
Although I could check my cervix and if it's low firm and closed after the EWCM has gone that should mean it's all happened. I'm trying not to check so much since you mentionned that it could disturb the good stuff.

I can feel myself getting stressed again.
I had a really late night which didn't help. I feel like an old wreck today. I'm so full of caffeine (sp?) yet I could sleep right here right now.

DH is out swimming tonight so I may give him tonight off too as I got a -ve opk today. It is early really, last cycle I ov'd on day 18. Earliest has been day 15.

Hopefully it will be some time over the weekend as that's when DH is more up for bding.

MrsMcJnr · 31/01/2007 14:39

Sending you big hugs 3cats. Poor you feeling the way you are. Hope OV stays away until the weekend for you.

It was self inflicted Mrs. I had a girls night in. The first for ages so we were talking till 1.30am. I think we all forgot it was a Tuesday night and we school runs this morning. I didn't drink but my head feels like I did.
I made the mistake of not having tea before I went out and ate nibbles all evening. I can't do that without getting a headache or migraine.

I'll make it a Friday next time then at least the children can play together and I can stay in my pjs and lounge about!

BBWBabeLisa · 31/01/2007 18:45

Any news greedy? Been out all day but been thinking bout u!
