I had quite a bit of that 'clear egg-white-like' stuff yesterday.
Does that mean I've already ovulated and missed my chance this month?

I've been too tired to bd this week. How will I ever get pregnant??

Good luck to everyone.

Hi Pottypot - just popping in being nosey, still on Jan thread, but I would get on and do it. EWCM is around before ov, so you might still be in with chance. Get on the phone to DH/DP and have a good evening

anyway, depending on your age, EWCM can be around for up to 5 days (if you're super fertile and early 20's!! - I'm lucky if I get an hour or so and i'm only 31!)

Good luck
x

pottypotpot · 12/01/2007 16:27

Thanks fettle.
Well I am in mid 30's so I doubt I'm super fertile!
Well, I'm planning a good evening tonight - take away and then a bit of 'romancing'

Fingers crossed for a result, but we could do with some 'us' time anyway.

HonorMatopoeia · 12/01/2007 20:42

Oooo, good luck with the romancing ppp, hope it's. . . .fruitful (and enjoyable of course - I'm beginning to sound like a cynic when it comes to bedroom 'activities'!!!)
KezzaG - thank you, it went well, Dr seems happy that it is nothing dreadful anyway. She says to wait till this AF is done and see how the pain was - oh joy! She's thinking gall bladder or IBS if it continues after that. Not nice but shouldn't have too much impact on ttc even if it is one of them. So. . . .roll on end of AF

another one over from the January thread .

I appreciate having others to listen and talk to who are in the same boat though, so let's keep talking.

omg, got a letter this morning asking me to contact the infertility clinic to make an appt. last time it took 6m to come thru and i was 8w pg with ds left a message asking them to call me back im a bit scared tho iykwim.

decorativeD2Bmum · 13/01/2007 10:23

i know i know i know....i said i was having a break and i am ( says to self no really i am!!)

but...i needed advice

last months a/f i had a tiny tiny bleed for 1 day at 6dpo then a/f arrived 4 days later..this month a/f arrived 3 days late and lased for 2 days?!

basically any ideas what is going on? is this normal?

and number 1 question is i am going to sainsburys this afternoon to buy a workout dvd(can anyone reccomend one?) should i buy a clearblue just in case?

grrr oh i dont know im probably just being daft but HELP!

and i promise after this i will be off for my break

lissielou · 13/01/2007 10:27

if it would put your mind to rest you should

Munz · 13/01/2007 10:30

d2bm - I would yes. tbh could have been impanting?

I have a quick Q, i'm currently 7 DPO, and did the deed on last sunday night (6 days ago) I have some ultra early tests and tested this am - v silly I know couldn't wait impatient lil, anyhow it was a really really faint (if you look int eh right light) pos, and htere was colour there (which I know if it's evap ther'es no colour) now it took the full 10 mins they say to come up - and I toook the test apart to double check but it's definatly there. so do I take it as a BFP or a could be? i'm not due on for another 6 days, but as I say I did get the ultra early ones from ebay - also when PG with J I tested on CD 22 and got a BFN but when tested on CD 24 got an immidiate pos. should I expect the same again?

(sorry i've not been keeping up either )

ammylovesbabies · 13/01/2007 10:30

Decorative, put your mind at rest but if its a BFN dont beat yourself up. How long have you been ttc? And without wanting to sound sick in the head(!) what was your AF like? Brown old blood or bright red and heavy?

lissielou · 13/01/2007 10:32

munz, the same thing happened with ds but take another in a few days take it as a bfp (tentatively)

ammylovesbabies · 13/01/2007 10:33

Munz, I would test again in 2 days. HCG would have increased by then and you should hopefully get a clearer BFP if this one was a very faint one. Be patient, keep your fingers crossed and go for the definite!! x

ammylovesbabies · 13/01/2007 10:34

Keep us informed!! x

decorativeD2Bmum · 13/01/2007 10:35

that was my 7th cycle of ttc, my a/f was bright red then turned brown on second day but not very heavy and only lasted 2 days...usually here for 4/5 days. im just onfusaed why does my body have to piss me about like this grrr

munz i would do another test in 2 days time...sounds very good though x

lissielou · 13/01/2007 10:38

munz, you saying that has just made me go and re-check the test i took this morning, vv faint bfp too!!!!!!

dh is beeing a c**k about it tho and saying i keep getting this then 4w later start bleeding how can he be so insensitive?

decorativeD2Bmum · 13/01/2007 10:41

lissie how long ago did you take your test - could be evap? sorry to dampen things for u

that is out of order what your dp has said very insensitive but he probably doesnt know what he is saying. im sure he doesnt mean it in a nasty way.

Munz · 13/01/2007 10:48

agree lissie - wey out of order of your DH.

d2bm u and I can re test together then on monday infact and lissie - althou until after AF/I get a v v firm definate BFP i'm reluctant to get excited, esp as I've had 2 mc's b4 J. I have one more test left.

ammylovesbabies · 13/01/2007 11:00

I half feel like screaming 'DO IT NOW!!!'

but I won't!

ammylovesbabies · 13/01/2007 11:01

Lissie, how long ago did you do test? DH is out of line there. I advise silent treatment til lunch time.

lissielou · 13/01/2007 11:07

i tested at 10am. been off colour all week tho, sick, tired, starving, light-headed and vv bloated. just like with ds. af not due til 21st either i just have no patience he's just asked whats wrong he forgets that each time that happened it was actually a mc. ive had 3 confirmed and 2 suspected. bastard

ammylovesbabies · 13/01/2007 11:09

Sounds like he needs something spelling out to me.

lissielou · 13/01/2007 11:11

i just need him to be abit optimistic. all of my mc's were 6-9w and i NEED to believe that its going to work out eventually.

ammylovesbabies · 13/01/2007 11:58

I really hope it does for you, you both need to stay positive and close. xxxxxlove and hugs to youxxxxxx

Munz · 13/01/2007 13:06

might be his way of dealing and not getting too attached?

thanks for your input girls, am dying to retest today but it will be pointless, so will wait till mon - if I can! lol.
