Did you buy a test P&M?! Are you going to keep us hanging on till tomorrow and use FMU? Good luck!

Hello bucky, is your DP going for his swimmers test today or tomorrow?

Madoldbird · 07/04/2008 14:56

tstt may i now officially congratulate you after another BFP!!!

PnM good luck if you do decide to test today. You'd better let us know!!

JB I wish i could offer some wise words about your chart, but i'm afraid i can't. Best not to stop BDing quite yet though, just in case!

EI I wish i could offer you some wise words as well! How confusing - you appear to be pregnant, apart from those BFN's! You must be frustrated. I guess no sign of AF is a good thing, but a test should show up by now? I wonder if you ov'd later than FF say you did. You have a bit of a dip around what they call 5DPO - but not a lovely clear one like a few days previously. Sorry, my rambling is probably not helping!

Bucky So sorry you have AF with you as well - but hey - a new cycle buddy!!! I reckon our bodies got in synch with each other, so we can bring each other extra special luck this time And anyway, who wants a 2008 baby anyway, there's loads of people around having those, a 2009 baby is SOOO much more exclusive!!! (Well, we'd have been quite happy with 2008 ones, but lets look on the positive side here) Are you going to start temping? I think i am, although my thermometer only goes up to one decimal point, and i'm not sure if it's enough.

JollyBear · 07/04/2008 16:18

MOB You are right, you need a basel thermometer which gives your temp to two decimal places. I got mine from ebay which is fine but it does say 'babymad' on it . I hope you and bucky bring each other good luck

Good chart interpreting skills by the way, I suggested the same thing to ei on another thread!

EiWishFor3MoreWishes · 07/04/2008 16:31

bucky im not sure what to expect from my temps as to whether it could be anovulatory or not im a bit useless with the knowledge at the mo i dont think i could have ovulated later as my cm changes after what i expect is Ov time from EWCM to milky cmand if i did ov later i missed the boat on BDing as i was sick as a dog for the following few days afterwards ah well what will be will be and all that
PnM have you tested yet?? we could do with some good news
JB at 4WW!!! i cave after 10 days imagine how much money i would waste if i had to wait 28 days (or how insane i would be at the end!!)
MOB your rambling is helpful if only for a touch of comic relief

hattyyellow · 07/04/2008 17:50

ei and *Pickandmix" everything crossed for you!

MOB completely agree - who needs a 2008 baby anyway?! Perhaps nicer too to have a baby a little further out of winter 2008 into spring 2009, as its so much easier to get out and about with warmer weather .

Had my day 21 blood test today, should get results on friday , at least it should help see if I do have PCOS or hormone imbalance of some sort.

Dh also went to get checked out, now has to provide sample - not happy that he has to refrain from doing anything for 5 days beforehand!

Fingers crossed.

Bucky2008 · 07/04/2008 18:39

Hatty, five days? My DP was told 48 hours!!

hattyyellow · 07/04/2008 18:48

Really??!! Might have a quick google! He was not happy!

JollyBear · 08/04/2008 10:42

Morning ladies,

Any news P&M? Good luck

hatty Five days That does seem excessive, although I suppose they measure them against different protocols depending on how long they have had to abstain before the test . Any symptoms to share hatty? ei Fingers crossed things get a bit clearer for you with your chart today. It is frustrating!

MOB Any luck tracking down a thermometer?

Hope your DP's test goes OK bucky

Well FF has put my red lines in after I had a really high temp this morning. It decided I ov'ed on CD 16 which puts me at 4 PDO already .

Bucky2008 · 08/04/2008 14:08

OK, where is everyone????

I need a thermometer too...I went to Boots (sold out), another Boots (don't stock them) and Superdrug(only went to one decimal point) . I wanted it today so I could start in the morning!!!!

DP went to hospital today, they said 7-10 days for results from GP...

Fingers crossed for you JB, one of us is due a BFP!

Ei anything new happening?

JollyBear · 08/04/2008 15:26

It is quiet on here today!

bucky Thanks! You are lovely . I ordered mine from ebay and it arrived either the next day or the day after, it was v quick! Hope you manage to track one down. 7-10 days isn't too long to wait although it will feel like years! Fingers crossed for a good result.

Where is ei, I want an update on her chart! She has gone awol along with everyone else!

Madoldbird · 08/04/2008 16:08

Yes, it is quiet, isn't it. i was expecting to have lots to catch up on since yesterday.

PnM & EI any news from you ladies???

hattyellow I hope all we be ok for you on friday with your results. Your poor DH having to abstain for 5 days (or have you checked to see if 2 is ok?)

JB well, now you have officially ov'd you can have a rest!! 4DPO - won't be long till we start asking you if you've tested yet...

Bucky i have just ordered my thermometer from babymad.com. It might not be here until thursday / friday, but am hoping that won't have to stop me temping this month. Did you drown your sorrows on CD1 last night? I definitely did! Has to be done, but i'm trying to pick myself up and get motivated for this cycle now.

How is everyone else??

EiWishFor3MoreWishes · 08/04/2008 16:58

afternoon ladies
so nothing new to report from me still no AF still relatively high temps still BFN and 19DPO i adjusted my temps so they all happen on the same time using the FF time adjustor tool as i was told to by the ladies on temping buddies to see if it mad e a difference to when i oved and it made absolutely no difference whantsoever!! apart from it has lowered my coverline ei's adjusted chart what dya think??
MOB yay for starting to temp i use a babymad BBT aswell which i bought from ebay for £1.99
PnM where are you?? have you tested??
JB yay for the red lines

I recon I am on the TWW now

mibbes · 08/04/2008 19:06

Bucky & MOB am so glad you are going to temp, it gives you a renewed enthusiasm fot ttc and you feel far more in control of what is going on. Well, not in control but you really know what is going on. The first few days temps are not crucial so don't worry if you can't start until the weekend, as long as you have 6 temps before ov you'll get ov lines . I assume you are both going to do FF ?
hatty all the best with DH's results.
Ei your body is messing you about big style grrr...
PnM any news missus ?

I have been having a wee panic as had a bleed yesterday. It seems to have settled down now but am on high alert knicker-watch. After several calls to EPU I have resolved that what will be will be and I can't make the bean stick by worrying.

chilledmama · 08/04/2008 19:32

OK....I haven't been on MN since page 22!!! I can't possibly read all that so I need updates (cos I'm nosy and need to live vicariously through you all).

Update from me...spotted for couple of days, still no real AF. Tested again and got v faint line but then after another couple of days AF finally arrived! BOOOOO but never mind. I get to practice loads now when I since DH next!!!

Hope everyone is doing OK and if not 'Up the duff' already then hopefully you all will be soon!!

Bucky2008 · 08/04/2008 20:50

Hi Chilledmama welcome back.

Well, I too have joined the "babymad" thermometer possee . All ordered on Ebay. I am quite excited. I like charts...(how sad am I?) It has already been despatched too by first class mail so should arrive tomorrow.

Mibbes sorry to hear about the bleed. . It could be fine though so try not to worry too much (easily said than done I know), but I am really impressed by your attitude. I wish I was like you. .

I am also the proud winner of our office's Grand National sweepstake! I would be rich if they hadn't put two bleedin tickets in the box for each horse....

Bucky2008 · 08/04/2008 20:59

New thread Come on in

This one was all dusty and I couldn't be bothered to clean up so I just moved us out. Hope you all don't mind.

Warning, I have no cakes in new thread as I am on a crappy diet. Bring bad snacks with you.
