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...

Sarah ... you'll be missed. Good luck with everything & please don't be a stranger!

Rattling ... good to see you back!

Claire ... I'm in the same boat as you. I'm waiting until August before I make a Dr's appt but only because I desperately need to shift some weight first and don't want a lecture! Plus it means I can take 6 months of charts with me as evidence. I do think FYM is right about continuing to temp if you can bear it, my ov was always spot on CD14 until the past 3 months (16, 19, 22). Even though it can be a pain at times, I'd rather know that not just in case I'm missing our BD window. We'd hate to lose you!

I'm feeling realistic about our chances this cycle ... This is a very good thing as I'm no longer getting my hopes up at the least change in temp or twinge. I'll still cry when my AF arrives, but I feel strangely calmer about it somehow. It might only last until the weekend, but my new outlook is helping me for now!

Pre-period spotting this morning. I guess I will temp for first half of cycle although has been nice not to bother in 2ww. I stopped after 4dpo.

I talked to DP about going to docs last night. I think I will leave it two more months. In reality my first cycle was stuffed post mc so I have only had 6 decent cycles now.

In the meantime I'm going to get a new kitchen as I just got a bonus from work. I know I should be sensible and save it for potential IVF but what the hell! Not gonna spend a fortune though as its not a big kitchen.

Morning all. FF took my O date away today, but I don't mind Means we didn't miss it at least! Started BDing like we meant it last night and will continue to until we see a definite temp shift. At least we have a fun long weekend ahead of us!

Claire so sorry (but maybe it's implantation spotting!?!?) You can spend your bonus on a nice new kitchen if you promise to cook uber healthy TTC-friendly foods all the time!

PrePG · 01/05/2008 10:37

I've decided to list my imaginary pg symptoms everyday so if I do fall pg I can have a look back and go hmmm, yes, that would appear to be it
Tinks site link inspired me. How are ya Tink?

6dpo- Today I have no symptoms whatsoever, I feel completely normal

Yesterday I had loads (all imagined natch), this bean is very fickle.

PrePG · 01/05/2008 14:55

squack what were yesterday's symptoms?

When FF gave me an o date yesterday I started thinking hey my stomach feels kind of funny - exactly the way it did when I was first pg last time. Then took my temp today and O date taken away - um, guess not on the stomach bit then Now I ~think~ I have O twinges...

Anyone else can't wait to get to bed so that they can go to sleep, wake up and take their temp?? I'm such a dork!

Hello everyone.

Feeling a bit AF-ish so no doutbt she's on her way ...

Claire ... you get to plan a new kitchen!!! Lucky ducky.

Prepg ... go for it!! Am like you when it comes to looking forward to taking my temp. The only exception is right now ... when I don't want to see the low temp that lies in wait for me ...

Squack · 01/05/2008 17:31

5dpo-Crampy, cranky, lower backache and no sleep the previous night (which probably explains the cranky bit).

I do get quite excited whilst taking my temp, thinking ooh wonder what it'll be today, but I'm also rather excited about listing my symptoms.

Yes it is dorky, but i'll dork along with you

tinkhasovulated · 01/05/2008 17:48

i am the same squacky we will dork together lol

herbgarden · 01/05/2008 19:43

Hi all
Been lying low - in fact - feeling a bit miserable today. DS is being a bit tricky (nearly 2 and can be v.v. trying some days as gorgeous as he also might be), I went to soft play this morning and was surrounded by pregnant women which made me feel more depressed. I suspect for those of you who are TTC#1 it might sound a bit strange to be bothered by pregnant women but I'm finding it all quite hard and keep wondering whether ds is going to be an only child (I've not been trying for long, granted, but I also don't know how long it'll be - I'm 38 this year so also feeling OLD ) and feeling a bit sad about that whilst at the same time wanting to appreciate him because I'm lucky to have him and whilst he's at a generally lovely age......

Not sure if I really am 13 dpo as I'm not sure if I really did ovulate on the day ff says I did. Have very tender breasts and mild dragging feeling (but did have this when pg with ds1) but really don't think I am pg this month. Have a weekend away with the family this weekend.....oh great.

Enough of my me me me moaning. Forgive me, I've spent all day with no adult conversation (even MIL didn't want to talk to me when she called at lunchtime to ask me something) and a whingeing 22 month old.......

Maybe I'll be in a better mood tomorrow but I've also vowed not to POAS and will just wait for AF to arrive instead....

Sorry Sarah has left us....and hope the rest of you are all ok. I think I too will keep temping pre-ov as I also get quite excited about waiting for my temp to appear !!......and filling in my little chart (god I really must get out more/find a hobby other than the TV!)
