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

My LP has been 11 days everytime. It is meant to be around the same give or take a day.

I'm counting down the days to AF/testing.
I don't feel so positive today as I had awful, crippling pains yesterday. I'm hoping it was a tummy upset as AF is still a week away. Still feel dodgy today.

Hope you all have a fab weekend. Don't forget to buy those valentines cards!

mum03 · 09/02/2007 13:45

thanks for the help, I am feeling so positive this month it has happened, but then I thought that back in december too, so it is clearly not reliable to rely on my feelings lol.

3catstoo · 12/02/2007 12:09

Hello,

How is everyone today?

Any news?

Well my gyny appt came through today. I have to wait 3 months!

Started spotting in the run upto AF. Due on Thursday.

Take care.

3catstoo · 13/02/2007 17:55

Am I the only one here?

MrsMc - a q for you. How does that sperm test work? I mentionned it to DH last night and he said he would be willing to give it a go. I was quite surprised by his reaction. He said I've produced 3 children already and created 4 pgs, so if things have gone awry now then I'm happy to get it checked out!

I just wondered what they do and how they work.

Saying that, I'm sure it's my body that has given up!

greedyforbabies · 13/02/2007 18:18

hello 3cats! i am still lurking! so you think old af is on her way? and you were so positive this month as well. lets hope its just......dare i say it........implantation spotting!

Ready · 13/02/2007 18:23

3catstoo, good news about your gyny appointment, shame you have to wait 3 months, but fingers crossed you fall between now and then and don't need to go!!

3catstoo · 13/02/2007 20:43

Hi Greedy and Ready.
How are you both?

Yes, that will teach me for feeling so positive! I'll be counting the days until I next Ov.

I seem to Ov at around the same time each cycle so it shouldn't be rocket science. I might do one of those FSH tests if DH does the sperm one.

Clutching at straws I know but I need answers.

Night night for now.

xxxxxxxx

YEs very quiet on here, hope everyone is well i have got a month off ttc so feel bit of a cheat chating on here.

Op on 9th march so AF should come shortly after - ready when did your AF arrive when you finished those tablets you took on your honeymoon? Then i can give it one last bash on clomid before i see cons on 23rd April.

3catstoo · 14/02/2007 14:29

Yes, I feel a bit of a fraud as I haven't been temping this month.

Thanks LL. Glad you both got good results from the tests. What is the ovarian test? Is that like the hormone test that checks if you are pre menopausal or not oving?

Did the male test check for motality aswell as sperm count?
Sorry lots of questions.

How do you feel in your month off Natty? More relaxed?

I felt less stressed upto a point with no temping and I certainly had fewer headaches in the mornings. Still not the end result I was hoping for though.

I have bad PMS this week and especially today. Not good with it being half term aswell. Plus my 2.5 yr old has decided to have a total change of character and become very naughty day and night. She's gone from being the most placid easy going child to a child that hits, kicks and won't do anything I ask. All since Sunday! DH couldn't believe the way she behaved on Sunday.
Hopefully it will pass.

greedyforbabies · 14/02/2007 14:39

i hope you get your normal dd back soon 3cats! i am sure it wont last!

Sorry to hear DD is playing up 3 cats.

Yes feel relaxed about not couting down to the days when i must do the dead and keep it to when i want it instead. Amd i will have a stress few 2ww, apart from being scared about my op.

Was very emotional with my last period i hated it, i hope i don't get like that again.

Natty1806 · 14/02/2007 16:45

Can you tell it is nearly home time, lots of mistakes in last post, should learn to preview. x

MrsMcJnr · 14/02/2007 17:03

Natty ? will be thinking about you on 9/3, not long now hon.

3Cats ? I?ll check the instructions and let you know but think it?s a case of ?producing? in the container and testing it.

Lottie ? how are you feeling these days?

I?ve had a scary day. Woke up to spotting and got very, very worried. Spoke to the MW and my scan is now scheduled for next Friday, it feels like such an age to wait!

Natty1806 · 15/02/2007 09:21

Fingers crossed for your little bean let me know how it goes tomorrow. xxx

Hi ladies bit calmer today as spotting has died down, now getting orange cm but headache has subsided and I still have no pain just dull stretching type aches. I?m telling myself that it?s just the beanie doing a growth spurt and that it?s probably really natural. That What to expect book got me stressed again last night as it was quite black and white about spotting

Lottie ? glad to hear that you made up last night, there is just so much unspoken pressure around the crucial time isn?t there? I know what you mean about all the unknowns of pregnancy, I didn?t know that you can still get AF type bleeds around the time your normal AF is due, it?s your body?s way of clearing up!

3catstoo · 16/02/2007 15:33

MrsMc, how are you today. Hope things are going better now.

I got a letter asking me to book a day 21 blood test with my gp. I've booked it for 7th March.
DH has to do a sperm analysis. I haven't told him yet. I will wait until the 'kit' comes and then tell him. Aparently there is a very long waiting list for this.

At least things are moving along.
Has anyone had the day 21 test? What does it tell you? I didn't get any info about it just a letter telling me to book it.

Yet another week has gone by. Have a good weekend girls.

Natty1806 · 16/02/2007 16:23

Hi 3 cats

I have had the 21 day test, it tests for progestrone to see if you have ovulated mine was less than 4 (which is bad) anything over 14 is classed as good and that ovulation has ocurred. on clomid mine went up to 66.

OH had his sperm test, no waiting time though. Waited for all my results to come back and then they gave him a pot and told him what to do and to drop it off at the hospital for testing - 10 days after gp rings with results.

Have you had a blood test for your fhs levels etc?

Natty1806 · 16/02/2007 16:23

Any news Mrs?

cityangel · 16/02/2007 16:37

MrsMC that sounds very stressful I am thinking of you big Friday hugs

Ready · 16/02/2007 16:43

Sorry I haven't been on for a bit. So busy, which is great cos it takes my mind of ttc!!

3cats, all the best with your tests. Like you say, at least things are moving along!! Fingers crossed for you.

Natty, when I delayed my period with the tablets, if memory serves I had to take them 3 times a day with meals, and when I got home, I finished a full day as normal, and my period arrived the next day. Which I suspect is normal for most. Good luck with it. The only thing I will say is make sure you eat with them, they can make you nauseous otherwise.

Everyone else... as soon as I get the chance I will have a good old nosey at your charts... fingers crossed!!

Natty1806 · 16/02/2007 16:47

Thanks ready - got to take them twice a day so will have them with breakfast and dinner and finish them the day of my op.
