Temping Buddies 11 - The Vita West Appreciation Society - Springing into BFP's!!

[fym]

Hi All

Thought I start the new thread before we ran out of space on the old one!

Hopefully good old Vita (Zita!!) will sprinkle some babydust on us all...

................................

Just read your post properly. Sorry she seems to be on her way. Had to laugh at your poking around though - I know exactly what you mean. I'm spending far too much time than is healthy sitting on the loo with a rolled up bit of toilet paper...

Impressed you've been running. I get out of breath if I rush to answer the phone too quickly.

Back at the top . Really crap looking chart this month . Need to get back off the caffeine, see if I can lengthen my LP again. Far from surprised at AF arrival - just minor cd1 blues. I think tea and scones are called for

Will be back tomorrow with more bounce (would be helped if anyone had some good news )

Wow - there are alot of us on this thread now...it is hard to keep track!

Lottie hope af doesn't arrive but I know what you mean about a slither of pink cm - usually means mine is coming too, anyway you never know there is always that chance! stay positive - hope the parcel is a good one, I also have a parcel at the postie - a pair of nike trainers I won on ebay...got them for £40 and usually £80 in the shops! must go and get them today to start exercising - again!

Ready glad the reflexology was nice and nothing too sinister came out of it! I am hopefully going back to accupuncture next week - although I am going to have words as to what he has done to my cycle - well I have to blame someone - surely Have you started your job yet ?

Hairy hope af stays away,...should you be testing soon?

ClairL thankyou - hopefully cycle has sorted itself and had a good clear out! although it has been quite an awful period! I am used to 3 - 4 days of light to medium but this has been one for an elephant!

sarah hope all is well with you.... thank you for all your advice and yes you were probably right with the cd25 and then 13 days later...although what the hell was going on have no idea - have had to buy new thermometer yesterday as the one I was using whilst away was a bit erratic...one day it said 41.35 so think it was on the blink and not giving me the correct readings - am going to follow Lottie advice and do the hoo har way ? is that the correct way to say that..?!

Nappy hope all is well with you... are you still on the clomid ? how is it going ? did you get to do iui or just the clomid first ?

Rattling Hope all is well in rattling house... are you feeling positive about this month - fingers crossed x

wow this could go on forever.... will be back later !

Sorry Rattling crossed posts - just when I was wishing you luck - hope you ok ..plenty of anything for you today

Hi girls, just popping in to let you know I finally got my BFP! I haven't temped for a long time but I still quietly pop into your thread now and again to check up on you.

It's taken 18 months and I conceived on my 1st round of clomid. I have a spare clear-blue digital pg test if anyone would like me to send it to them?

Good luck to you all. xx

So sorry rattling But here's to fresh starts. Good luck for this month!

minxi sorry your period's been so awful this month. Mine's incredibly light, very weird...

Yes HairyToe testing soon?????

Pootle well done and congratulations!!!

Pootleflump? Weepootleflump??? ? How wonderful, I have thought about you lots chick ? and sooooo pleased to hear your news. Don?t be a stranger!!

HairyToe, don?t worry about what the others say about acronyms, if you want to use them, you go for it. I personally don?t like BD, but I have used it ? and don?t have a problem with others using it, if they like. Lottie is right, some people just like having a dig at the ttc boards. Enjoy your day in the country!

Lottie, sorry to hear that you are certain the game is up. If it is not a ridiculous question, how do you feel? ? What was in your parcel?

Rattling, sorry that you are back at the top. I like that you have a positive plan? cut out the caffeine and see what happens? Enjoy your tea and scones!!

Minxi, I am glad that you won on ebay. I still have never purchased anything from there? must get into it Definitely think that you should be firm with the acu, find out what the hell they did! Nope, still not started new job, apparently the CRB is taking the time ? so that should hopefully come through soon. Fingers crossed

I think we should do a straw poll ? gob vs hoo-ha

Yeah, still reeling from the yellow tone comment at the reflexology? that was so spot on!

Thought I'd better start temping as my monitor has given me another high reading. Well so far I've had 2 days of medium flow, no clots and then 4 days of spotting, the first 2 of which were a bit more noticable but not enough to think "lightflow". It's def a bit weird!
Temp is below coverline though so that's a bit better.

xpost with the yellow ready lol.

I don't use af or bd, (don't like hun either) i prefer the actual terms. I'm not going to the thread or i'll post and regret it, just ignore them.

Hoohar! that's a great term, yes I take my temp up the hoohar.

Ooh, that's the reverse of harhoo's of ITNG isn't it? I
wonder if Anne Wood knew that when she named them pmsl.

Good luck to everyone on the brink!

Oh, Lottie Don't get your hopes up if you don't want to but I'll secretly have mine up for you!

I'm not a big fan of BD, AF or preggo (even though that last one's not an acronym) and I hate boobs! and even more t!ts, but if I let my web language be dictated by my preferences I'd never be understood on here! So I just go with the flow (no pun intended! Gosh I hate that word too!) It all serves a purpose!

My period's been really weird, sorry if TMI! But it's way light - I would even consider changing yesterday to 'spotting' instead of light on FF, but I think I'd just be tricking myself into thinking that my LP is longer than it actually is, and then I'd be back to CD1 again...Oh, well, I guess it doesn't really matter in the long run, as I'll just O when I O no matter if it's CD18 or 19 or whatever. We'll just have to BD as much as we can! When I told DH AF arrived he did a big 'YESSSS!' I think he's now officially as lame as I am

hi all

feeling very tetchy today (and very fat) - so suspect AF/period on way in the next few days...

What are we going to use then as acronyms????

I like AF and BD as it's short, quick to type and won't show up when people are searching for porn like the real terms might

Prepg I'll add myself to your little weird cd1-ish club. I've been to toilet just now feeling ahem, lubricated and there is pink-tinged cm again.

For only being pg for a couple of days my system is certainly playing funny b*ggers with me

It's not blood as such, hasn't been for the previous 2 days.
Is this common for a cp? When is it likely to stop?

I know noone can probably answer these questions I just need to ask them iykwim.

I'm secretly wishing & grinning for you as well, but NO testing until at least a day late!

I went and looked at that acronym thread - couldn't resist - I cannot believe that people get so up in arms about it... does it matter that much?? what a waste of energy

Hi everyone! On my way out the door to see 27 Dresses with my Mum & wee sis. Still no EWCM although there's mouse-size EWCM here & there ... don't know whether to count that or not. When I say mouse size, don't mean the size of a mouse unfortunately, more like the size of EWCM I would have if I were in fact a mouse ....

Rattling ... sorry to see you at the top again. Like the new plan though & hope you had cream & jam with those scones!!

Lottie & HairyToe ... fingers still crossed for both of you!!

cd 25 for me feeling really moody
is af impending @ wknd or is it a good sign?
www.fertilityfriend.com/home/1f3edd

this is my chart last cycle was 55 days after stopping the pill
have i ovulated

Just trying to catch up!

Clair, our hamster's name is George, as in the Bugs Bunny cartoons where the abominable snowman would grab Bugs and say 'I will love him and squeeze him and call him George'. I've also been doing DP's genealogy and there are tons of Georges, so it's a family name too He is a winter white Russian Dwarf, used to be almost totally white but now that spring is coming he's getting bits of grey on his bottom and head. I really wish we could have a dog. I brought my lab/spaniel cross over from the U.S., but sent him back to live with my friend who has kids when I initially thought XH and I were going to split up 3 years ago. It was the hardest thing ever, but I know it was best for Jack and at least I can see him when I go home. He was such a perfect kids' dog, was wasted on me! I still miss him terribly, but having something furry around makes it easier.

Minxi, sorry you're back at the top but at least AF finally arrived and you're set to try again. Maybe just ovulated late last month? I know what you mean about 'liver'-like clumps, if they are browish supposedly it means its old blood. I tend to get that on cycles where I haven't ovulated, but that certainly might not mean the same for you. Glad my chart-nosing was somewhat useful!

PrePG and rattling, re: short luteal phases, have you tried taking B6 vitamins? I'm on Pregnacare which has 10mg, and taking an additional 50mg tablet from Holland & Barrett. I only had an 11 day LP before, and the first month I took the B6 I had a 13 day LP. Also, as a lovely side effect, my boobs didn't hurt at all during my LP!

Pizza here......posting temp soon, it's gone down again.....

Tink, have to say, your chart doesn't really suggest you have ovulated. Sorry. There is no EWCM (do you get that normally?) and the temps have not clearly risen to suggest ovulation. Hang in there.

Hi there - cracked this afternoon and did a test....

....BFP!!! .

Very excited but trying hard not to count my chickens after last month (BFP CD28 followed by period and BFN CD29). Although this month I have used a normal Clearblue test - last month when I got the BFP on the Clearblue Digital test I got a negative on a normal Clearblue..

So plan is to wait till tomorrow morning and if no period test again Lots more finger poking (iykwim) in the meantime.

By the way Sorky your period does sound very strange. My period after the CP was not like that at all - pretty normal. And especially odd tied in with your monitor results. Hope it all sorts itself out soon.

Lottie how are you doing? Does your period (see I can use the correct term when I want to ) normally take its time to arrive like this? I usually don't get spotting just 0-60 in one big red rush.
