DG I can't believe your sister sings at the Jazz Cafe (in Camden?!?) - DH and I go there a lot and while i love Mrs AW and acnnot wait 'til Thurs, have a lovely night listening to Lil'/Big Sis!!

07mumstheword · 22/11/2007 08:47

TEW has arrived. I knew she would. At least I can stop driving myself mad now, well for a week or so at least

Having ready other stories here I'm greatful that I have had a short cycle (26 days). I really hope some your missing AF's result in BFP's!

sarahnh · 22/11/2007 10:03

Hi everyone.

Very jealous about lunch on Friday

We need some excitement on here. Could not check in yesterday and really expected some BFP's, in fact I was starting to think I might have to beg for you to save one for me

Well not looking good here. CD26, Ov on CD19/CD20. No real signs of PG, just normal dullness in tummy and backache which is normal AF symptoms. Keep getting like a funny stitch but sure I'm imagining it. Boobs are hot but not sore.

How is everybody else?

Shazza2002 · 22/11/2007 10:10

Hooray Sarah, lets hope there's some fishes waiting for it !!

digitalgirl · 22/11/2007 12:40

am soooo busy today, but thought i' drop in and say that according to fertility friend I am 3dpo. ha!
apparently I ov'ed on Monday.

am dubious though as this has involved me taking my temps twice everyday from monday as I've been so disappointed that the temps are low. I've been waking up, taking my temp, looking at it, taking it again and then recording the second number.

I'll go for my blood test on monday to see how my progesterone levels are. and I suppose we'll see in two weeks time if AF turns up or not. apparently I shouldn't test till CD42!

Anyway - I feel like I've snuck onto the 2ww and I'm not really supposed to be here. But what the hell!

GryffinGirl · 22/11/2007 13:47

you are supposed to be here DG . Congratulations on the ovulation How did your second session of acupuncture go?

well, CD15 and I am officially on the 2WW now . Funnily enough, no symptoms yet

DH is being very funny (as in funny HA HA, not funny peculiar ). He offered to pee on an OPK stick so I had one as the "control" for comparison of lines .

Afternoon to everyone else. Any people testing today ??

Sweetiesandcakes · 22/11/2007 14:09

I'm tempted to test but onlt 10 days past ovulation so am thinking i should wait a few more days at least.

DD (2 and 4 months) has just come back from MIL - MIL asked her to put her book away as it was time to tidy away to go home and DD replied - 'no thank you, I;m reading it you bugger' - oh the shame!!!

Shazza2002 · 22/11/2007 14:35

sweetiesandcakes That's not shameful, that's hilarious

I will be testing 10dpo. I didn't OV until CD19/CD20 so it feels like a long time. Sunday will be CD29, so preparing myself for BFN but it's the only thing getting me through today

Bucky2007 · 22/11/2007 15:14

Today Bucky mostly crashed her car . Not supposed to be home yet, but came home cos was fed up...Why am I having such crap luck? AND...I crashed into a paraplegic (sp?) man how awful can things get???

Oh and only boring CD4, no egg and no flippin' baby either.

glastochick · 22/11/2007 15:24

Oh Bucky [hug emoticon]

Things will start to look up. I'd like to say things will get better but whenever I think that, that D-Ream song comes into my head and I start to think of the Labour Party campaign for power in the 90s. Yeuck!!!

ladylush · 22/11/2007 15:31

Oh bucky

GryffinGirl · 22/11/2007 17:08

oh Bucky poor you. Are you ok physically? You don't have whip lash or anything do you and was the car badly damaged?

sweeties PMSL! that is such a funny story! Out of the mouths of babes! Wait a couple more days to test and come on to MN imediately you know. We need some happy news round here and lots of BFP's

abbymeg · 22/11/2007 17:12

Bucky It is truly one of those weeks. Have lots of chocolate and feel wholly justified doing it! I'm back on! CD1. We're (almost) cycle buddies again! If TEW hadn't been late last month, we would be spot on. Nevermind, you can hang from my ankles at the end of the month again, now I can officially join the other thread. Hope your car is okay.

Coolcat - I have been exactly the same. I think November has finally caught up with me. Someone brought roses in today (a huge tin); found myself starting and not stopping. It seems hideous piggishness has gone past the 5pm - 9pm binge, seeping into daylight hours too. This has to end; I've nearly killed myself to lose 10lbs, and intend to not put it all back on until AT LEAST Christmas Day!!! (BTW I'm still in the fat category, and should know better if I want a baby in there instead of donuts this month!!)

DG - I knew you'd know. You are the ovulation oracle. Nice cape!!

Hello to the rest of you intrepid symptom spotters. CD1. 2 weeks to symptoms. Bring it!

abbymeg · 22/11/2007 17:14

Bucky - saying I hope your car is okay made it sound like that mattered more than you! Are you okay?

abbymeg · 22/11/2007 17:18

Holly - I'm sorry that I don' know, but I hope you get it sorted out. I would say it's worth testing, though I understand your apprehension. At least if you know, you can deal with the outcome, rather than worrying about it. Good luck

ladylush · 22/11/2007 17:32

Cd22 here.....drums fingers..........

Bucky2007 · 22/11/2007 17:33

I'm ok, just fed up . Now I have to add fixing my car to sorting out my burglary! Just scraped the bumper badly and smashed a light.

Didn't see Sweeties story, I was a bit self consumed sorry . It was very sweet and did even bring a smile to my face and today that is some achievement.

I am going to pretend you are my cycle buddy Abbey besides if I have a 26 day cycle you could be?

Thanks again to everyone for being so sweet, you must all think I am so up my own backside...all I talk about is me, me, me and my disasters. I do care about everyone and I do read what you are all up to, I just get a bit caught up with all my dramas.

Glad your eggs have hatched dg and sarah and fingers crossed for all your 2ww's. Sending baby dust *

digitalgirl · 22/11/2007 17:39

gg second acu session was good, felt very buzzy. I'm still not sure that I've definitely ovulated though. I had EWCM today. This ov-thing is stressing me out the same way that waiting for AF was stressing me out last cycle. Trying to be really cool about it, but at the same time wondering when the hell I'm going to get an obvious temp rise. Why have I had ov-cramps since the weekend?

Have got a client drinks & dinner tonight, not sure if I should drink or not. Probably will have a glass to try and relax.

bucky you poor poor thing. What a crappy day you've had.

pixie04 · 22/11/2007 17:52

Hi ladies

I'm sorry I haven't really been keeping up with the thread for the last few days since AF turned up.

I've been having a think and I'm going to give ttc a break for a little while. it's been ten months now and it's really getting a bit much for me. The lows when AF arrives are awful and the anxiety and stress when I think I'm ovulating isn't doing me any good. It may only be for a month but I need a break.

I will still lurk on the threads tho to see how everyone is doing.

digitalgirl · 22/11/2007 17:52

bucky I've emailed you hon - will be heading off soon, so will catch up with you much much later or check my emails in the morning

digitalgirl · 22/11/2007 17:54

pixie x-posted

I understand, it's so very hard to remain calm and 'what will be will be' about it when you have irregular cycles. I hope you come back with a surprise BFP

pixie04 · 22/11/2007 17:56

thanks DG I will still keep an eye on the threads though to see when you guys get your BFP's x

Excitable · 22/11/2007 17:58

Hi Pixie

Sorry to see you go, but know you'll be back soon. Do whatever you need to honey...

Day43 and still no blinking period. I'm going to yoga on Monday to see if I can align my chakras or something...

abbymeg · 22/11/2007 18:09

Pixie - posted on the other thread to you. It's strange that I just get back, and you're going - but I completely understand. I found 3 months hard, so I totally appreciate that 10 months must be really difficult. It will happen for you. Enjoy your rest, and I hope you feel ready to ttc again soon. XXX
