Sorry Kate I posted to early.
Sorry you are unwell- good idea with the temps. Why do u think u didn't ovulate last cycle?

Tee4me · 15/12/2016 09:56

Footy, to me it looks like you ovulated at the first dip making you 8dpo. The slight falling afterwards (3, 4, 5) doesn't look significant enough to be below and above coverline readings. The overall trend looks like hightened temps from 8 days ago, if you ignore Clomid influences at the start.
Kate so sorry you're ill, hope you feel better before Christmas! Yes I get that a lot re. DH, I'm used to his ways now!

physicskate · 15/12/2016 10:15

Foot I suspect it was an anovulatory cycle because I didn't temp regularly (naughty) but the data I have does not show any sort of trend (ie high temps more than 16 days before AF started), really only two 'low' temps at all... I guess like the cp in July - I never really will know!

MotherOfBeagles · 15/12/2016 11:07

As long as you are happy don't worry about it kate. Like you said you aren't particularly pushing at the moment.

footy oh yes itchy nipples. I hate those buggers and my dh thinks I'm insane when I complain about them. I hope your temps stay up! Fingers crossed.

Keep going to the toilet to see if AF has arrived yet. No sign yet. But I have loads of weird twinges and pressure and heavy feelings. Not cramps though. So confused Sad

Sorry you're so poorly kate take care and get better for Christmas

Glad you got some DTD in tee hope he keeps up the good work, and your hormones continue in the right direction

Footy keeping everything crossed for you hon, really hope clomid will all turn out worthwhile for you

Fx beagles I hope AF stays well away!

Saw the GP this morning. She went through everything and said none of our results concern her, she can't see anything really wrong with us. She has referred us to the fertility unit, so that will come through in the new year. For now, keep trying...

Am feeling really crook today. Am off work - annual leave - but not really able to enjoy it. Just had two hour sleep on the sofa! Oh dear.

SellMySoulForSomeSleep · 15/12/2016 16:49

Hi all. I'm due AF tomorrow. I had some weird dark red blood on sunday and a bit of spotting till Wednesday. I've got sore boobs but that's standard when I'm due on. Just for curiosity I did a cheapo test that I had in.
I can see a super faint line but I might be over thinking again!

Oh no jam sorry you feel crap. Had a better afternoon? At least it's good the docs didn't see anything yet, crappy that need more testing though.

Big fat congrats for a BFP! Very pleased for you soul.

My mum recommended a neti pot so I've just ordered one. Will see if it helps!

SellMySoulForSomeSleep · 15/12/2016 18:25

Thank you. I don't quite believe it yet. Hopefully I'll get a stronger line tomorrow then get a digital one.

MotherOfBeagles · 15/12/2016 18:30

ah soul thats so good right before christmas!

Footy1 · 15/12/2016 20:14

Wow congratulations soul! That's definitely a BFP! Yay BiscuitStarFlowers

Footy1 · 15/12/2016 20:28

Must be a lucky week there's been a few on the clomid board with their BFPs this week.

Jam, glad the results came back good for you. Hopefully the fertility clinic will be able to come up with some answers, but u never know you might get knocked up before then Wink. Would you consider clomid? I personally wouldn't recommend it, but seen it can work for others. The ladies on the clomid board some are already ovulating but still take it and it just produces good ripe big eggs for them.
When's your f/w? Is it over Christmas??

Beagles any AF?

Tiny bit more of brown tinged cm this afternoon. I've never spotted before AF, so is a first, but on clomid I've come to realise anything is possible! Cervix is high still and soft. Pains in boobs and they are really really tingly? DH thinks they look bigger. But think AF going to hit me in a couple of days. I'm away at weekend so won't be tempted to test. Hoping for another high temp tomorrow.

Footy1 · 15/12/2016 20:32

Soul another lady on different thread (clomid one) got her BFP today and she also spotted from 7dpo til yesterday at 14dpo. How weird is that.

I'm trying to not get my hopes up, but it's sooooo hard. On paper it looks promising! Just need it to happen.Hmm

MotherOfBeagles · 15/12/2016 20:45

footy its sounding good for sure i really am sending positive vibes your way! its so hard trying not to get your hopes up though isnt it? bigger boobs that are all tingly is good. The spotting would stress me out as i never have it either, how you coping?

no sign yet! my cervix is high but quite hard so no idea what that means. Sore and swollen boobs, lots of pressure and poking pains in my right hand side, like ive hooked a coat hanger around my hip and am prodding what i imagine is just a bit lower than my ovaries with the rounded bit on the end. Also had loads of ewcm today wtf? All depends on temps tomorrow i suppose. Bit irritated because need a good few days of regular temps to see a pattern but we are going to a midnight star wars showing tomorrow so thats going to mess me up again. All these up downs started on sunday after a messed up night too! grr

Will catch up on the thread later, just wanted to give quick update!
Baby boy arrived Monday and all is perfect!
Lost plug at 8 sun morn, waters went 12 hours later and then baby was here exactly 12 hours after that! So in love. He's looking forward to hearing lots of good news here x

Tee4me · 15/12/2016 21:25

Wow Parney!!!! Congratulations Mummy!!!! How wonderful, the thread's first baby has arrived. It's so lovely you've kept us company here too, it's good for morale to hear the end goal come to fruition! Enjoy all these previous moments, will you be sharing the name?!
And a massive congrats to you too Soul!! FX for a stronger line tomorrow, keep us updated and put those feet up! xx

MotherOfBeagles · 15/12/2016 21:33

Fantastic news parney! Yay first baby has arrived! I knew it was going to be soon with u losing the plug. You must be thrilled! Hope it was a long difficult labour and baby just slid out. Did u think it was a boy? I'm so pleased for you WineBiscuitStarChocolateBrewXmas Smile
And just In time for Christmas.. Ah your baby boys first Christmas. Xx

Londonjam · 16/12/2016 00:03

Great news soul and parney - glad to hear your baby boy is here safely. What a blessing Halo

GP visit was fine, she said she's not concerned by our results. She has referred us to the fertility hospital, so we should hear from them in the new year. Came home and had a big cry. It's not what I thought we would ever have to do.

Hope everyone else doing well xx

Footy1 · 16/12/2016 06:41

Jam it doesn't necessarily mean anything is wrong to go to a fertility clinic. They will give you options and might help. I remember u mentioning u had a tilted cervix.. When I was trying first time round they told me that certain positions could hinder conceiving. Now I understand after checking my cervix as depending which way u aim! Could be nonsense but u never know. I conceived both boys from behind. After working out where my cervix is now I need to make sure if on back I'd need to put a cushion under my bum to tilt my pelvis. Or if on side it would need to be only one side. My cervix is tilted but to the right so he would need to aim that way. It may be rubbish but I'm now trying this new tactic u never know.

Footy1 · 16/12/2016 06:50

Possibly 9dpoStar
Temp higher to 36.88!! I feel this is now giving me a little bit of extra hope. I woke up feeling my body was hot and just knew it would be higher. As soon as I opened my eyes I had tingly boobs again and strangely woke up with indigestion. But I did have curry last night so maybe was that. Xmas Hmm
Just went Loo and no spotting.

Tee4me · 16/12/2016 07:31

Jam it's great you are being referred. As Footy said it could be something really simple that needs tweaking to make this happen for you! I really think most likely bad luck, but no harm going down this route as they might have some great tips to share.
Footy I'm officially EXCITED for you, I hate to be flippant about something you want so badly, and I know the agony of raising hopes only to be disappointed, but this all sounds so promising!!! What amazing timing it would be to get a bfp the week before Christmas!!
Soul have you retested with FMU??
Beagles temp gone up or down?

We'll blow me I've had my classic CD14 temp spike, so looking like maybe I did ovulate yesterday as usual!! I was exactly the same with my March MC, ovulated right on time if I took first day of full on bleeding as CD1. I think my body is super efficient at ovulating, as 90% of the time it happens CD13 and the rest of the time CD12 or 14. My problem seems to be sustaining any subsequent conceptions. Also, I'm on a miscarriage board with another site, and the women on there are promising me I wouldn't ovulate while there are still traces of hcg, and the line was still faint yesterday. I hope they're wrong, I did have a bit of ewcm last 2 days and some twinges yesterday. might have to resort to google!!
PS. We DTD last night as well as Wednesday, so I'm delighted about that if the egg did pop out yesterday!

Tee4me · 16/12/2016 07:33

Ha! That should have read 'well blow me' not 'we'll blow me', ooo errr! Confused

Mimilicious013 · 16/12/2016 07:42

Omg, this week is turning out to be exciting! !!
Congrats parney on the arrival of our first square one baby.StarFlowersStarFlowers.hope you enjoy the cuddles and kisses.
Congrats soul , hope the line is darker today but on an ic,that's surely a clear bfp.
foot the temps are exciting and can't wait for that long awaited bfp. Go foot goWink
Sorry you are feeling down jam but glad your tests came back clear.
