Anyone else on CD1 who wants to join me?

[nelix2000]

Hi....cycle 2 just started so back to the begining....just wandered if anyone esle was back at the start of their cycle who wants to join me?

Great to have you back again Smiley, it's been quiet here of late. Sorry to hear that the witch has shown up.

Well, still no AF at this end. If nothing has happened by Tues I'll test again. I'm a little worried, as I googled Naproxen (the stuff I was on for my shoulder) and it can delay/prevent ovulation. Also there's some evidence that if I was pg it would up the mc rate. Great, although I told my GP we were trying and she said that taking it for a week wouldn't be a problem .

Any news yet Wanabe?

hey everyone!
no news as such yet funtime too scared to test! I'm CD33 today 11DPO and not sure if i imagined that my sense of smell was heightened earlier as I could smell my DH's crisps REALLY strongly across the other side of the room (could just mean they had a lot of flavour on them though!) and the only other thing is i've peed so many times today im sick of the sight of my loo. Only had about 4 drinks and have peed around 6/7 times. Grrr getting very frustrating! oh and had a tad smudge of brown in my knickers yesterday (back to the good old knicker checking nelix)

Sounds very posistive i know but i'm so scared to get my hopes up. did a test (cheapy one) yesterday am but was a BFN, although it was before my brown smudge incident.

Any ideas/advice ladies?

Nice to see you back smiley! sorry about the witch arriving though, what a cow!

When is the best time for me to test? Help!!

Oh and hot nipples earlier today too, only for around 20mins though.

Sorry just remembered more, was very tired thursday, friday, and yesterday. Have hardly any appetite and not really fancying food in general (not even the nice stuff!).

Oh god, im starting to obsess again! will check back in tomorrow as DH wants to go to bed now

Night ladies xx

Wanabe - that all sounds really promising I had hot nipples on a Sat - unmistakable wierd feeling - and was incredibly tired on the Sunday - couldn't understand what was wrong with me at the gym, I was so weak.

I tested on the Thursday - CD29, 13DPO, day before AF due ..... Had brown watery CM a few days before the hot nipples and then again at 13DPO

I have a theory that the hot nipple thing is associated with implantation, in which case you would have to wait a few days for HCG levels to rise.

Loads of good baby vibes coming your way [gri]

Good Luck to all who are testing this week

I had a very romantic weekend, flew back in on Friday, plane was delayed 6 hrs & sent to Malaga as we had 65mph winds in Gibraltar, we've even got a large tanker ship wrecked against the rock after the storm. My DH had organised a suprise spa wkend away as it was our anniversary..started late but made up for it. One thing I didn't understand this month was on Sat night I got a massive headache, migraine quality and didn't want to take any pills as was still hoping I was pg, the headache even woke me up several times in the night(still have it now although lighter)so was convinced on Sunday morning that it must have been pg hormones as I never get anything like it when AF building up.....was wrong witch arrived by afternoon, but me & DH were talking last night wondering if it may have been a bit of both as I've had lots of 'symptoms' this month and maybe I did get pg but it just didn't take!!!! Am I kidding myself, what do you think?

Hey girls, I?ve had a pretty uneventful 2 weeks really??..working quite hard and catching up with friends and family. I spent some time last night catching up with all your news on here and was a little sad to see we haven?t had any BFP?s (YET!)
I am preparing to move to a new client (I?m a management consultant) and it?s looking like my new role will have more responsibility and be taking over from someone leaving to go on maternity leave!! I?m due AF tomorrow so caved and did a test this morn ? BFN unfortunately ? no even hint of a line . I am now awaiting AF as have had no symptoms at all and have a BFN on a first response. Not the end of the world really but I?m going to start the temperature monitoring as the OPK didn?t pick up ovulation last month and so I?m wondering if I?m actually ovulating earlier or later than I think.
[smiley] is hard to know what to think isn't it? I have been putting to the back of my mind a bit but this morning had fingers, toes, arms crossed - who I am kidding?? lol

Hey smiley you may very well have conceived and it didn't "stick", sometimes happens more than we think apparently. Nice to know your DH spoils you like that though! how romantic.

Hey becky nice to see you back with us. Let me know how the temping goes as haven't tried that yet (probably the only thing i haven't tried though!)

Thanks for the vote of confidence Jools i'm keeping everything crossed. The only problem is i had another small dark brown smugde this morning and have now convinced myself it's AF on her evil way
This is exactly why i tried to deny that i had any symptoms and told myself they were all in my head. It's not possible though because even DH has noticed that i'm "different" (he's very diplomatic!). Plus i woke up at 3am needing a wee, never happens! i need to know now though, im so impatient!

Thanks Wanabe & Becky Just seems I had so many 'symptoms' this month & so early on for the last 10 days or so.
Had really sore (.)(.), cramps, felt sicky quite alot esp in the car & never get car sick, got hormone lumps in my armpits 10 days ago, stayed for 2 days then went, they usual only appear 2 days before AF and go when AF arrives & then the wicked headache over the wkend...just thought I'd share my symptoms with you all just incase I was pg & you are feeling any of the same symptoms. It would have been lovely to have known for sure if I did actually conceive with only having 1 ovary it plays on my mind that I may not even be ovulating. DH thinks we should go and talk to gyne to make sure but I want to wait a couple of months & see if we can do it ourselves then talk to her in the New Year if no luck, its such a small place here if I was seen coming out of the gynes office tongues would be wagging before I got home & I don't think I'm ready for people to know we are trying yet

Sounds horrible but I've just had a real meaty clot on my tampon, squished it between my fingers and it was a bit like skin sorry tmi, but in my mind it makes me happy as I now think that maybe I was right and my mind and body weren't playing tricks on me with all the symptoms, I knew I felt different this month & I think I did conceive & was unlucky that it didn't 'stick', just thought I'd share that with you all, hope I didn't offend anyone, going to have a large glass of wine now and a stinking hot curry hummm

Aww im so pleased you got your closure smiley! enjoy the wine!

Oh Wanabe, it does all sound really promising, just missing that BFP! I'm retesting tomorrow morning. I think that I've had symptoms (both boobs sore, usually only right one before AF, tugging in my groin, slight nausea) but I'm prepared to admit that it might all be in the mind .

Pleased to hear that you had a nice weekend Smiley (despite the headache and all). Welcome back Becky!

I'm relieved that it's perked up a bit, I was worried that if I do a get a BFP there would be no-one to tell .

Hey funtime! Glad you came back on, was waiting for your response
Ooh exciting so your testing tomorrow? i must admit i did a sneaky one today (cheapy) but it was BFN. Was dissapointed as i had convinced myself it would be positive just because of the amount of weeing i did yesterday and it's definately NOT a UTI as im very prone so know only too well what they are like!
I'm 12DPO today, CD34! so not really sure when to test again as im not even sure when my AF is due! Is there a rule? i.e. 14DPO AF due? it's all very awkward when your cycles are irregular!

Where is heeby? seems like she's been gone ages! hope she's ok.
Who else are we missing? it's getting aweful quiet on here.

oops didn't mean to miss you, good luck to you too funtime got everything crossed for you. Feeling more poss today, although worked out my best dates for BDing this month & its when we have friends out for 5 days, DS is suposed to be staying in our room but might have to change the sleeping arrangments & give the guests some earplugs

Royally grumpy now, another BFN . If I'd known that this stuff would mess my cycle about so much I would have just put up with the pain .

It appears that
a) the medication has delayed/prevented ovulation (found this out on t'internet, GP didn't tell me even though I said that we were trying).
b) I've no idea if/when I've ovulated.
c) Therefore I have no idea when AF might arrive. I'm 4-6 days late so far.

It's costing me a fortine in sanitary towels 'just in case', not to mention tests!

Sorry to hear about the BFN Wanabe (passes a small glass of wine, just in case).

Been looking on line at different ways to tell when you might be fertile & came across this one below that I thought I would share with you as it seems a little more simple than some of the methods, they also have a great Basal Body temperature chart that you can print off & fill in your details by hand, I know there is an electronic one on fertillity friend but I quite like working from paper & seeing it in front of me, if you want to download a copy type in contracept info natural family planning chart into google

The method rules are quite simple. A woman asks herself two questions: "Did I notice any secretions today?" and "Did I notice any secretions yesterday?" If she noticed any secretions yesterday and today, she is potentially fertile. If she did not notice any secretions either yesterday or today (two consecutive days with no secretions), her probability of becoming pregnant is very low and it is safe to have intercourse that day. Couples using the TwoDay Method should avoid unprotected intercourse on days when the woman is potentially fertile.

For simplicity, women can note the presence or absence of cervical secretions at the same times each day. Checking after noon and just before going to bed at night is adequate for identifying fertile days, and also reduces the potential for confusing semen and cervical secretions.

Hi everyone, I would love to join am on CD9. After having a mmc, we are trying again this month. I am using the OPK this month and am keeping my fingers and toes crossed and everything else that it works this month!! Babydust to all!

Hi C1ndy welcome,its a great thread, you can rant & rave as much as you like & it really helps to know there are others out there going through the same ups & downs as you are

Hey ladies,

Some more bizzare symptoms?
Had poking behind my bellybutton today, made me want to stick my finger in it and scratch! Also, i just ate lunch and now want to vomit quite badly. Hoping it will settle soon.
Still having very small amounts of brown discharge but not even enough to justify a liner. Plus yesterday & today i had a few very mild cramps in my lower abdomen.
Hoping this is positive but also concerned it may be AF building up.
I'm CD35, 13DPO today so who knows. I'm planning on doing another cheapy test tomorrow if still no AF.
Will keep you posted.

Sorry to hear your frustrations funtime how aweful of your GP to do that so underhanded. GP should have told you the possible side-effects when you said you were trying! For goodness sake, some people have no idea do they?! (Sorry ranting a little)
a big bar of green & blacks

Wanabe - this is sounding more and more like this is your month - poking pains round belly button - like someone pushing a poker in there ???

I had those feelings on a Monday and Tuesday and tested on a Thursday

Am getting so excited for you

Funtime - passing you a large gin and tonic to go with that Green and Blacks

Still no news from doctor re blood test but am sure not pregnant as yesterday (Mon) got all the ewcm (day 18 of cycle if odd bleeding last month was period). We BDd Thurs, Sat, Sun and Mon so hopefully we caught it. Which means AF now expected later than thought so have updated list.
