Hi all, I have had a roller-coster day, not helped by going into the computer room and randomly picking one of 10 computers - and what came up on the backdrop - a huge face of a baby. I could not believe it, the same computer yesterday had a lovely picture of a field!!!! I was so shocked I almost ran out of the computer room screaming as I though I have finally lost the plot LOL! Anyway, today has been a day of switching between my heart and gut feelings and my head thoughts. My heart just wants to be pg, and my gut thinks I am, but my head realises that the likelyhood is low and that I really should be sensible about it all. I have been feeling nausious on and off today, but I realise that it can only be the progesterone in my system doing it as it would be too early for it to be hcg, and therefore it is not a reliable sign of early pg. My forgetfulness and clumsiness are both premenstral signs and pg signs, so that does not help either. My high temp could be due to stopping temping too early and mis-judging the ov day. The only thing that really could be a sign is the af-type cramps that I only ever get when af arrives or when pg! Oh why does the 2ww have to be such a head-wrecker! Anyway need to change the topic...

Rah - now be ultra nice to dh and make sure you seduce him enough so that he wants to shag on both thursday and friday night, don't tell him it is for trying to make a baby, just try to make him think it is all his idea to have a good shag after being away for business. I don't think thursday or friday are too late... hope that it works. But if not don't worry your half-hearted go this morning is still within the necessary time-frame. hth

chocolatedays - I wondered what had happened to snowy, I just want to wish you all the best with ivf, hope you will keep intouch with us here to let us know how you get on.

Ready - have reported above how I am feeling, have to say, I might well test tomorrow morning, I am sure that af is not in sight yet, but tomorrow is another day.

greedy - as you can see I am trying to keep our bargain, but not yet sure if I managed it, will have to wait a few more days I guess.

McEaster - hope your business trip goes well, and that we can do our testing together next week.

eggs4easter - so please to hear that you booked the appointment.

Seaside -frustrating about the temp this morning, but even more hope you feel better soon.

Gracie - how are you feeling, 9dpo not long now for you either.

hi to all pg friends here including honey and fettle

Well I hope I have not forgotten anyone, if Ihave please shout at me!

Morning,

Mum03 - Sorry about the BFN, is your AF normally on time? Remember a BFN doesn't mean your not pregnant it may just take a couple more days to show up on a test.

Ready - Thanks for asking after me, had a bit of a blip yesterday. Testing when I shouldn't be, you know the usual madness. Anyway I am now waiting patiently (well trying) for Monday when I am sure AF will be here. Hope your getting in lots of BDing.

Hope you all have a lovely easter

greedyforbabies · 05/04/2007 09:43

oh yummum! i am off to look at your chart now to see whats happening. your temp is still good and high at the moment.
happy easter all!

EasterRampantRAHbit · 05/04/2007 10:58

Morning all...

Got to be quick, so will catch up with you in a bit... I definitely think I ovulated last night (typical) I had ovulation pain and EWCM, which I never get.... OMG! I don't normally get such strong signs.... So jumping on husband when he gets home whether he likes it or not! LOL

Hi all - Day 2 in seasides house of confusion - FF is now saying I ov'd on CD12? had a temp rise on CD13 & 14 but biggest one has been today - I think the pos OPK is registering for CD12 - but only got the result at midnight so cant have ov'd that day surely and only got first peak on monitor on CD13?? might play around and move the pos opk to cd13 and see what occurs??

Yum03 - its not over yet -
while the temps are still high
theres no need to cry !!

rah - well if ov was last night then the quickie BD yesterday morn couldn't have been better timed - in fact it is almost a good thing you had your bust up and then quickie bd in the morning rather than no bust up and bd the night before!!! IYSWIM And one tonight will be a good reserve!

Gracie - about your blip yesterday - see my witty (not!) ditty for Yum03 above !

greedy - Hi - how are you feeling?

Gracie - hang in there sweets!! try to resist testing if you can

Rah - If you did ov last night then your quicky was perfect Get one in today too - not necessarily a quicky Your temp dipped though - are you ok?

Yum - Sorry about the BFN and your roller coaster day! Hug. It sounds as though you are really going through the mill. Today is another day, as you said. How are you feeling? What's the longest cycle you have had??

Seaside - Sky +ed Reproduction Reproduction - but something tells me I will be taunted when I sit down to watch it! At traffic lights this morning a heavily pregnant woman crossed, and I my face was a picture - good job she couldn't see or hear me! I'm not allowed to do the sulk face and "it's not fair" - DH gets cross ... You know, I wonder if that PhilSpencer is impregnating everyone
Re: your temps, my understanding is that OV is signified by a rise of 0.1 higher than the previous 6 temps - so with your high one on 7, the FF is not following that rule putting OV on 12 - IYSWIM? I would say that OV was more likely on 13 than 12.... but that's just me, I'm no expert that's for sure

seaside72 · 05/04/2007 14:31

Thanks Ready- PMSL about Phil Spencer - maybe we need to all get on that prog - it must have special fertility powers!! (or again - just Phil?!)

Yes I am only allowed the sulks on my own - have to say is it just me or does everyone seem to be pushing a buggy at the moment? - we live on a little country lane - not usually a buggy thoroughfare - more ramblers and dog walkers and yet I have seen 3 people walking down today with buggies??Also BF just texted the date of her 12 week scan - must respond with joy but think will chicken out and email/text rather than call. Feeling like a mardy bit@h again

Back to the hut me thinks!!

ovenREADYhotcrossbuns · 05/04/2007 16:08

Seaside - I think the nice weather brings them out in droves The killer is the pregnant lady with a toddler - you almost want to shout "oi, let me have a go before you have another!" In all seriousness it is lovely - gives me hope

The weather is just glorious!! Not an April Shower in sight!! and where I live that is a
I have had a very productive day: cleaned the house, did laundry - which is now drying on the line (yay!) washed the car (by hand ), started a new painting, baked some raisin and brazil nut muffins, and now I really should be doing coursework, but the weather is far too nice!! Think I'll go sit in the garden Pimms o'clock old friend

ovenREADYhotcrossbuns · 05/04/2007 16:12

Seaside - Meant to say - If your friend is a good friend, she will understand you not being over-joyed! If the tables were reversed, you would not expect her to be doing cartwheels - so don't beat yourself up about not calling her. It's just the date of her scan, I think a text or email is perfectly adequate. Hang in there babe!!

EasterRampantRAHbit · 05/04/2007 16:27

Hi all... finally got time to post... Such a busy easter bunny!

Just got home and did another OPK test and got a faint positive, so must mean I have hormone in my system.. Strange.. maybe I am still ovulating? How long does it take to release an egg? On a very positive side the OPK have worked for 2 months is a row, so maybe they do work for me and I can use them as a good guide for when we have to do the business and relax for the rest of the time...(Fingers crossed)
OK OK enough about me... what are you guys up too?

Seaside
Blimey Sea, your a poet and did not know it...lol (you little verse for mum03 earlier). Sorry you are feeling so glum ... when my ovulation was late this month, I thought it had all gone to pot again...but it happened in the end... shame about the necessaries! (Me and DH having lots of BD!)

Gracie14
Sorry about negative test... I do it all the time and test early...maybe we like punishing ourselves! Hope you have a nice weekend and AF keeps away!

Eggs4Easter
Hope you OK, assume that you just had to race on and update us on your temp. Have I missed a post, are you confused on your LP length?

Yum03
Hope today has been ok and you have not been tormented as much... it's so unfair!

Ready
I know what you mean about sulking about pregnant women.. We were in the car the other day and this lad and girl walked in front of my car and she was heavily pregnant. I said 'great the scum of the earth get a baby and we don't...look at the state of them... it's not bloody fair'.. my dh said... you don't have a clue about those people and are basing your judgment on their wealth and cloths..they could be decent hard working people (I doubt it)... But I was so shocked I was embarrassed as I should stop judging people... What makes me such a great candidate for a mother over anyone else?? I just look at the fact that some people live off the social and I have worked hard..etc etc and deserve a baby more than them.. but in reality I suppose I a just looking for a victim and picking fault with everyone just because they have what I haven't.
There was a story posted on sands the other day about a girl that kept seeing a very heavily pregnant women and kept seeing her growing and about everywhere. She was so envious. But one day she went to visit her babies grave and the heavily pregnant women was there a couple of plots down visiting her own child. I suppose it is true you never know what anyone else is going through or
what they have been through in the past.

I will stop waffling... Hope everyone is already enjoying the easter break>>

Eggs4EasterFertilizedPlz · 05/04/2007 18:50

have had another hectic day - just had time to post temp earlier.

does anyone think my temps are a bit low? - or do they look normal for this part of cycle?

mrsmcjnr - we are off to dublin for 4 nights 5 days for my 21st birthday then in september we are going to magaluf and maybe if the budget stretches going skiing xmas time (aslong as i dont have a bump) hope your business trip goes well, when are you visiting the doctor now?

yum03 sorry you are going through all of these mixed emotions, the 2ww is tough but it sounds horrid for you - keep your chin up and we are all here for you ((hugs))

rah- i cant help you on the opks i have tried them in the past but got thoroughly confused by the lines somedays id get a light line think i had ovd then another day itd be extremely dark so i gave up - which is why my lp has a ? because i dont actually know unless my temping works this month as i havnt had one successful month as it yet.

chocolate days - tonnes of luck with ivf! what an exciting but daunting time that lies ahead of you - hopefully not long now and then you will have your bundle of joy in your arms

ready - i cant believe you and your tantrums lol actually you sound just like me when i dont get my own way - "its not fair blablabla" -but then i always get my own way after a little wobbler and i know you will too!!!

i am aiming to start our quest for a bfp tonight - i have promised dp a nice sensual massage and a big cuddle - but im hoping for somthing in between

EasterRampantRAHbit · 05/04/2007 19:02

Bloody husband is home from being away...He is throughly hungover and has been pucking all day! Likelihood of sex is a big fat ZERO!
ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Every attempt to seduce has failed... I will end up losing my temper soon and demanding it due to possible prime time!

Expect tears and tantrums!

EasterRampantRAHbit · 05/04/2007 19:05

By the way its not like I found it very attractive... pucking hairy lump... but any possibility of fertilization seems to rule over everything else! God I am so annoyed! His sperm are normally lazy anyway, now they are bloody drunk... they will be swimming the wrong way

ARRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG ..V

EasterRampantRAHbit · 05/04/2007 20:17

Where are you all??? I'm so annoyed he is on the settee, snoring away! I am getting more and more wound up...WHY ME?????

seaside72 · 05/04/2007 20:26

I'm here rah - Ok right - now - I am sure sperm wil be OK as the quality of the sperm was determined three months ago - isnt that right - sperm take three months to get mature/bake?!!

If you can try not to get angry - I know you will be fuming inside but it will not get you the end result you want and that is what you must focus on - be as cool as poss- while you stay nice there is still the poss of a good outcome - in my experience once you lose it - the positive outcome (a shag) gets less viable IYKWIM!!

seaside72 · 05/04/2007 20:28

Do you think he got like this cos of the pressure - just that is exactly the sort of thing my DH would do - instead of stepping up to the plate - unconsciously sabotaging the whole thing - so annoying I totally know how you feel.

seaside72 · 05/04/2007 20:35

Oh Rah - hope you are OK - I am so sorry I didnt log on earlier hon - I have been wallowing and trying to write a weepy email to my BF. have sent it now - not sure how she will react?

What about if you go and have a relaxing bath- meanwhile pour water down your DH' throats at least a litre then let him have a nap and wake him up in a couple of hours for bd? Sorry not much help

Eggs4EasterFertilizedPlz · 05/04/2007 20:52

oh rah what a bugger!!

how bloody selfish of him coming home plastered after spending time away from you - he should have been just as up for it as you

do what seaside said and pour water dow his neck - strip him off and give him a good slap round the face to bring him round! btw i have been in this situation many a weekend and i just let him sleep it off a for a few hours and then pounce cos by this time he has sobreed up a little.

im so sorry i cant help but i totally know how you feel just please try and stay calm because if all fails tonight which i really hope it doesnt - go for an early morning session then you can say you gave it your best shot even if he didnt putin the effort.

seaside - i hope you are feeling ok after emailing your bf it must be a hard time but try and be there for her as best you can because one day she will have to return the favour to you!

seaside72 · 05/04/2007 20:57

Thanks Eggs4 - I hope she understands where my email is coming from IYKWIM - I was trying to convey that I am so happy for her but sorry if I have been distant and just explained what was going on with us etc. - Oh well its sent now - fingers crossed.

Hope rah is OK?

EasterRampantRAHbit · 05/04/2007 22:24

Hi guys...

Thanks for your suggestions

Seaside - Really hope your BF will be supportive... It is strange how some people react...some people that you think will be great are rubbish and some that you think would be rubbish are great... but most important thing is your relationship and the fact it will be there in many years to come. Basically she needs to look at things longterm, rather than what is happening now and that you still want to be her friend, but just need some distance for the time being. Also everyone else has an opinion... so whether you think it is right to have distance, someone else who has no idea what you are going through will have a say....

Anyway update from the Rah camp... Dh relented and we did the deed... but I don't think he had it in him and most of the sperm ended up outside rather than in... so annoyed he was away and then came back still drunk!

Eggs4Easter - thanks for understanding and telling me to stay calm... definitely needed in this situation!
