Tigsy your chart looks great! I added my pregnancy chart, it looks kinda similar starting off with really consistent flat temps and then going higher! I think that cycle when I looked at "charts like mine" a high percentage of them were pregnancy charts. Not sure if the app you're using has that feature.

@Kinsters I'm using kindara this month as changed from f to c midway through month and FF wouldn't let me swap so I converted my F temps and entered them into Kindara. I haven't got a clue really how any of it works as only started temping post MC and my first 'cycle' was all over the place with no real O I could see and crazy AF.

I actually took the temp twice this morning as so high ... using my lady comp too, but the temps are ALWAYS lower by at least 0.1 / 0.2 °c so I'm charting using standard bbt to keep consistent (today lady comp temp was 36.7!) I'm not sure what the think really so I temp with both x

BettySwoll0cks · 17/01/2019 11:11

Still waiting for first AF after mc. This seems to be taking forever! I don't know whether I'm more excited or terrified about the prospect of trying again Confused terrified, I think.

ratherbeshowjumping · 17/01/2019 12:04

That chart looks really promising @tigsyboo 🤞🏼 keeping all my fingers crossed for you!
Love lube bulldogs 😂😂😂

My thermometer finally arrived yesterday so I can join the temping fun 👍🏼 I didn't bother before as it happened so fast last time & naively thought that would happen again 😫 I feel really irritated by DH even though I know it's not his fault he couldn't "perform" when he had to 😡 and the more I've read up on the turkey baster stuff, the harder it looks to actually succeed with. (Know full well I'm BU but just pissed off that for him it's another month without having a pregnant wife but for me it's another month later I don't get to have a baby, another month I have to suffer with AF & another month that MIL thinks that I'm "unable to provide DH with what he wants.")

I'm 99% sure I'm out this month, waiting on AF, but did take a temp this morning which was 36.71 Celsius which compared to a lot of yours, does seem high just before AF. Question is, am I a freak of nature or is there a chance I could be pg this cycle?

@BettySwoll0cks I think terrified is definitely the right word.

TwittleBee · 17/01/2019 12:14

I agree, that chart looks great! FX tigsy

Betty totally understand that fear!

So bloomin hard to know isn't it Rather ! Any more tests in the house? Frustrating when they don't see how it's not just as simple as "we will try again" - the emotional rollercoaster of every cycle is draining!

Kinsters · 17/01/2019 12:43

How many dpo are you rather? With a high temp like that and no AF I wouldn't count yourself out yet!

ratherbeshowjumping · 17/01/2019 12:50

@Twittle none in the house, may pop out after work and get one. Just don't want to see a BFN, would much rather see AF.

@Kinsters I'm 12dpo so should get a BFP if I were pg?

TwittleBee · 17/01/2019 13:00

Yeah I do agree with Kin, Rather ! And I would be surprised if the didn't get a BFP tomorrow if you are gonna be lucky this cycle. Latest I've got a BFP on a FRER, with BFN previous, has been 12dpo.

BettySwoll0cks · 17/01/2019 13:05

@rather I think you've been remarkably restrained. I always try and wait til AF is overdue too to test, but having had a faint line this month I reckon I'd have been peeing on everything in sight.

I missed lube bulldogs as I was scrolling through ... 🤣

ratherbeshowjumping · 17/01/2019 13:26

Fuck it, I'm off to Tesco.
One this afternoon, one in the morning.
🤞🏼

edidxb · 17/01/2019 13:58

@ratherbe - go girl - hurry back from Tesco and let us know!
@Betty - so frustrating for you - I hope AF comes along soon as then you can at least feel like something is happening.
@Rose68 - I think if you DTD tonight you will def have a chance.
I am CD13 today and got my first bit of ewcm - YAY! Still a negative OPK though. I used to get 5 days or so of ewcm before ovulating so it could still be a while yet, or it could be different (hopefully) and I will ovulate soon. It's the weekend tomorrow and DH is now back home so it's good timing. I used to ovulate between CD14-CD16 so it will be a bit later this time.

In other news I had a bit of traumatic experience with a parent today which led to them being taken away by the police. It's been quite the week with all the late nights too!

But now it's Thursday evening and it's the WEEKEND!!!!

@kinsters and @indreamland when is CNY this year?

edidxb · 17/01/2019 13:58

@tigsyboo - your chart looks great! Fingers crossed....

Kinsters · 17/01/2019 14:48

ratherbe fingers crossed for you!

edidxb that sounds awful! I hope everyone is OK. CNY is 5th February this year.

Frazzlerock · 17/01/2019 15:14

@rather good luck!!

@edidxb good luck with the BDing. Sorry to hear about the traumatic work event. Sounds grim Sad

I am exhausted today and, as usual, bored to tears.
Tomorrow we are off to Berlin for the weekend just the two of us, so very much looking forward to that. Just hope AF fucks off so I don't have to think about that.

I'm still feeling shite, emotionally. Fed up with AF, fed up with my body. Blah blah blah.

I could really do with a nap, my eyes are super tired.

MOAN MOAN MOAN

You'll have me back to normal again when I am approaching ovulation again and close to being in with a chance

Hi all
My god I'm knackered today! Sloped off work an hour early to have a power nap as taking mum to theatre tonight in oxford which is an hr and half away and had headache from the second I woke up which didn't go all day so 2 paracetamol and a nap has done the trick.

@ratherbeshowjumping I'm keeping everything crossed for you

Everyone hope you are well and thanks for the support xxx

Rose68 · 17/01/2019 15:37

@Tigsy I also meant to say 1000mgs of EPO.

@Kinsters, yes I’m aiming to bd next Friday morning, but it’s gonna be complicated! My plan was to take the boys to breakfast club, come home, dtd, DH can then bugger off while I lie in bed for 30 mins. However, now DS1 has informed me it’s his assembly that morning, so after DTD I will have to get up and go back to school for 9am 😩

@edidxb I have to dtd next week, only on cd4 at the mo. Sorry to hear about the police thing.

@Ratherbe I had forgotten about the turkey blaster 😂 good luck with the test!

@Frazzle have a fab weekend!

I have had DS2 skiving off school today, so he had to sit in the hairdressers with me for 3 hours. 😊

Rose68 · 17/01/2019 15:38

That would be turkey baster, not blaster 😂

ratherbeshowjumping · 17/01/2019 15:52

Ah fab news, good luck @edidxb have fun! School situation sounds grim - can you say what happened?

Berlins fab @Frazzlerock have the best tome. Hope it cheers you up 😘 xx

@tigsyboo have a lovely time! Symptoms sound as promising as your chart does 🤞🏼

@Rose68 lol I have not forgotten about turkey baster 😩😂 sorry to hear your DSs assembly has ruined your plans...!

Thanks for all the support. BFN... again 😫 I'm going to have to write off the line as a fluke/evap. Ffs.

BettySwoll0cks · 17/01/2019 16:11

Boo sorry that's the case @rather. Hope AF shows up soon, so you can put this month behind you and soldier on.

Somewhere between lube bulldogs and turkey blasters today has been a good day for typos 😆

Rose68 · 17/01/2019 16:12

@Rather I’m so sorry for the bfn.... I’m sure next month will be your month... hopefully the turkey baster won’t need to put in another appearance 😁

Buggles1 · 17/01/2019 16:14

Welcome to Oxford @tigsyboo... my home town!

Well first AF post mmc arrived today and I don’t think I’ve every felt so overjoyed to have it finally arrive. Feels like we can get back to normal now and start trying again. Such a relief. Hopefully yours will follow soon @betty. Fingers crossed

Frazzlerock · 17/01/2019 16:25

Oh that's so crap @Rather. I thought this was it for you Sad

I think we need a list of words:

Turkey Blasters
Lube Bulldogs
Foof Juice

I think all of our body's just needed to get our first AFs out the way.

Still I did think that we were most fertile after MC, maybe it's an old wives tale

OP posts:
ratherbeshowjumping · 17/01/2019 16:47

Thanks ladies.
I'm so pathetic - just crying my eyes out. DH was really worried that turkey baster/blaster would cause an argument/me to be upset & not feel good enough. I said no, absolutely not, I don't care what it takes, just want a baby.
Now I'm fucking furious - if we had a normal sex life, if he wouldn't stay up til stupid o clock watching sky sports, then maybe I wouldn't need to tell him when we need to dtd & we would have a chance at having a baby.
Just to top it off, I've been away for 2 nights working & I've come back to a complete shit tip which makes me so angry.
I'd be 16 weeks tomorrow. We should be bickering over whether to find out the sex or not (I wanted to, he didn't) not whether or not he's going to be able to tear himself away from sky sports for 5 minutes whilst we try & make a family 😡
Feel like I'm going to murder him tonight when he gets home 😡

It's probably just PMT but 😡😡😡😡

God knows what else we will end up @Frazzlerock but they have all made me crack a smile when I feel really rubbish.

ratherbeshowjumping · 17/01/2019 16:53

Wrong way round *i didn't, he did... not that it matters!
