Ready is having difficulty in getting on the other thread due to length of it, so started a new one.

Oh torres, I can't believe you got your BFP a month ago, I am so out of touch! I really have been working too hard lately and I am not keeping up. Many many congratulations, I am so happy for you!

Rah bummer about AF! At least hopefully you are looking tanned and gorgeous and we are all of you anyway! Next month might just be your month. Fingers crossed. (Sorry, wasn't sure which CD you are on now so didn't update you on the list, you might want to do it)

Well, conflicting OV signs for me at the mo. Temp went up this morning but my CB Fertility Monitor is still saying "high" as opposed to "peak", so not sure whether I OV'd yesterday or will today, or possibly tomorrow... Still at least it means loads of BD'ing so DH is very happy!

Thinking · 11/10/2007 21:15

Sorry to hear the witch caught up with you Rah.

We are kinda temping but going with the flow...TBH I shouldn't really be TTC this month it wouldn't work out with stuff we have planned in real life (don't ask) but what the hell, I'm not buying condoms for one month. ;)

Hope everyone is doing well and I'll try and post/read/temp more

Ready · 12/10/2007 19:11

Sorry I have not been about much over the last couple of weeks, not temping has really helped to take my mind off ttc

Still thinking about you all though Hope everyone is well??? Any news?

Big hugs Rah

NappyValley · 13/10/2007 20:59

HI all sorry I have been absent it has been a busy and stressful week. I was up in Coventry delivering a training course. But the day before (wed early morn) I was clutching the toilet and vomiting everywhere. Highly unpleasant and I am only just getting my energy levels back. EWCM started with a charge on Thursday during course, which was no particularly helpful. I swear that since quitting caffine I get so much more EWCM, but it is a bit beyond a joke really!

ANYWAY I was staying in the hotel that the lovely Rah (sorry about AF hun) celebrated her wedding in. It was absolutely gorgeous and stunning and totally romantic, made even more special by knowing someone with a personal link to the place. Rah I thought of you and I think you guys should get away for a weekend break there. But specifically NOT when you are due to ovulate, and just enjoy the memories and enjoy remembering how much you love each other and that a baby is not everything your relationship is about(but I know that it is impossible to silence that voice in your head!! Mine is down to a mumble these days, but still never shuts up). You so deserve it so very much.

minxi I am in sunny Southampton. It sucks I know. They did review my file on Tuesday but I have not heard anything. they do that so that is they want to order more tests before the appointment they better use of the delay! If they find a problem we will probably go private (it is the same consultant either way)

temp wise holding steady around the 36.3 - 36.39 mark. and heading into the green zone BUT DH has been given free tix to England -Russia game next week, so that writes up off for this month!

minix sorry to hear you have had an emotional week. I always seem to get very teary when I talk to the hospital. Have you tried counselling? I have stopped seeing my counsellor now, but I found it so very helpful to have someone neutral to talk to and rant at and explore my feelings with.

Just saw myself on there twice.

NappyValley - glad you liked the hotel. I just love it there! It is funny you should say that, my husband suggested that the other day and 'said we should book in to Coombe soon, maybe for our wedding anniversary' I replied that would be lovely dear, except our anniversary is on the 25th June 2008! GRRR Men!

Hope everyone is well.

Rah - You should go there and pamper yourselves as an early Christmas/pre-moving present!!! No need to wait

RahRah1 · 15/10/2007 18:07

I know I'll make DH pay for forgetting our anniversary date!

They do a room for about £400 a night. I'll have that one!

My room was 115 for the night and I saw they are doing discount weekends according to a leaflet in my room.

I have adjusted my cycle number and CD.

Ready · 15/10/2007 21:58

Come on!!! We need a BFP - we deserve it

RahRah1 · 15/10/2007 22:06

I've had a look and the cheapest I can find the weekend nearest to DH birthday (Halloween - if you knew him it would explain a few things) is around £150 bed and breakfast. I only wish we had conceived 3 and 1/2 years ago on our wedding night.... how perfect would that of been! at all those that conceive on their wedding nights and honeymoons! GRRR

Ready I'm trying!!!!!!! Promise! We must get them soon!

OP posts:
Ready · 15/10/2007 22:14

You should go for it Rah - Do it, do it, do it!!

We are in our hotel room, much cheaper than £150 a night but we have got wifi

Hi everyone!

So much to read up after only a few days of absence!

Rah - go on girl, book it up and give yourself (and DH) a great weekend to look fwd to in a few weeks' time! I am very jealous!

Ready - CD19 and you think you're about to get AF already?

As for me, according to my temps and CM I ovulated last Thursday but my CBFM didn't give me peak days until Saturday and Sunday . Sent FF into a frenzy, they couldn't make any sense of it and neither could I! In the end, decided to detele my FM readings as I actually trust my temps and CM more these days. I reckon I will stop using the Monitor altogether next month actually, can't be good if it's confusing me rather than helping?!

I was ill all weekend though (small gastro-enteritis I think) so didn't do much BD'ing. Don't think this month will be my month again. Sigh

Totally agree that we are overdue a BFP on this thread though!!!!! Must have at least one this month girlies! Who's it gonna be?? (nudges Thinking)

I altered my cycle day, it looked like I gained a couple of days along the line. It is going to be a BFN for me this month...DH again ran for the hills (too tired darling) when I was in the mood (which historically is when I ovulate, it is one of my signs)

I am happy to go with the flow but I get cross when I can't have a bit of fun...wondering if we should start using condoms and then I'll know if it is the sex or the possibility of getting pregnant that my DH is avoiding. I had a temp drop with spotting and temp rise...hopefully AF will arrive in 8 to 10 days.

Good luck to Ready and all the rest of the ladies for this cycle.

Evening all.
Been a busy day with the plumber in. Good news is I am all set for our new dishwasher which is coming next week, but the bad news is that our boiler is old and dangerous and needs replacing.

Cycle wise it is not going to be our month as DH is over in Moscow and I think I ov'd tuesday.

Oh on the appointment front, hospital called today and have my moved my appointment from March 08 to Nov 07 so that is a pleasant and welcome shock. Although does this mean good or really really bad news???

minxi · 17/10/2007 22:59

Nappy - thats fab...doesn't mean bad news at all - just a few weeks from now help and advice rather than several months!!

Off to bed now as shattered!

RahRah1 · 17/10/2007 23:04

Excellent news Nappy. They probably just had a cancellation. WOW a much earlier appointment!

Sorry your hubbie is in Moscow, maybe you could get him to do a sample and get him to freeze it in some of that high level vodka they have out there and get it sent same day delivery! Just a thought.... sorry too much 007 for me! LOL

Right off to bed.

OP posts:
Ready · 17/10/2007 23:04

Nappy - I would say that there has been a cancellation (some lucky begger got knocked up ) and you were top of the list to fill the slot

Minxi - Hope the move is going ok? Is it really possible to get pregnancy spots??

Rah - I haven't logged into fertility friend for ages, not been temping this cycle.

LittleSquirt - I can't feel AF on the way, but I have got a few spots, which is usually a good indication that the cycle was not a success. How are you feeling?

Thinking - Sorry to hear you are not feeling optimistic and that your DH isn't playing ball. I often wonder what effect all the stresses of ttc have on the manfolk?? Hope you are ok??

I was thinking about Rattling today. I do hope she is ok? If you are lurking Rattling - thinking of you, sweets, hope you pop in with a BFP real soon!

Hope I've not missed anyone??

Morning girls....
off to get nails done then packing boxes arrive... maybe should get nails done after but they are in desperate need of doing! Think I ovulated Tuesday as temp rise and slow rise since then....will see what ff says soon though...not too hopeful as not enough sex!!

Yes have heard of pg spots Ready!! although sometimes they last the whole nine months and are not so attractive
