Morning all, oh Lilsmum, sounds to me like you may have a duff Clear Blue Digital? could you pop out today and get another stick test? especially after such a positive reading on the 1st one......

Hope everyone else is feeling positive today?

teuch · 10/05/2005 09:46

morning all!

I am not sure what is going on with my cycle...CD20 and no sign of ewcm yet. Last cycle I o'd on CD19/20 but i defo had ewcm for coupla days beforehand and o pains as well! This month nada! Just my luck, last month of trying for a while and my body won't even have bothered to join the party...

Been plenty BDing just in case tho

Lottielou · 10/05/2005 09:49

Hi All, Sorry to put a downer on you all being bright and cheery this morning. But AF arrived for me this morning! Gutted, gutted and gutted!

HandbagAddiction · 10/05/2005 10:46

Morning everyone! On CD18 today - classic ov symptons today....niggly cramps, feeling a bit sick, etc. etc. If last month if anything to go by then I have another 2 weeks of these lovely symptons before AF arrives - can't wait!! dh less enthusiastic about bd'ing last night - think he's feeling a bit 'used'! So, given that he was away until Sunday nightand we've only bd'd twice this cycle - I'm not holding out much hope.....

Hope everyone else is OK though...and apologies if I don't mention everyone...

Teuch - lol about bd'ing just in case of OV. Your dh/dp must feel like the cat that got the cream.

Lottielou - sorry to hear about AF.

Piffle - sorry about the BFN - although until AF arrives, you never know. I would wait another couple of days and then test again.

Chuffed - keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Lilsmum - not sure what's happening. If you can possibly hold out for another day, I would test again. Sounds like you have symptons and maybe a duff test.

Frizbe - where are you in your cycle...how many days until you can test???

Tabs · 10/05/2005 10:59

Oh dear - there was such a lot of good news yesterday, and now today it's all turning sour .

Piffle and Lilsmum - if there's still no AF then I'm not giving up on either of you, so hope you've got more tests at the ready!

Chuffed, keeping my fingers crossed for you too.

Lottielou - sorry, guess you really are out for this month.

Teuch - maybe you've been stressed about it being your last month and hence delayed ov for a bit? Glad to hear you've been practising anyway . If you can keep it up for a few more days then maybe we'll do the 2ww together.

Well I had plenty of EWCM this morning, so went back to bed for a while . Prob a bit early still, as I sometimes get EWCM 5 days before ov, but hoping that the wrigglers can tread water for a few days!

Handbag - men, they're never happy! Remember it only takes the one little sperm from one go at BDing, so stay optimistic!

Bella23 · 10/05/2005 11:34

Lottie - sorry about AF hun
You must try and see the positive of this, I know it is hard, but it means everything is back in working order and you will be able to TTC in earnest in a couple of weeks time. Hang in there, the shock will wear off and then you will be back in the saddle.
Piffle - don't give up just yet - no AF so things still looking good so far

Rom - I bought some grapefruit juice yesterday (even though you know I hate the stuff!) ....do I have to have it first thing in the morning? or can I have it during the day?

Chuffed · 10/05/2005 11:42

oh Bella what does the Gratefruit juice do?
Sorry about all the AF's...none yet

Bella23 · 10/05/2005 11:45

According to Rom and a few others it helps to increase your EWCM. You know me.....love to try anything!! shame i hate the stuff though!!

StarryEyed · 10/05/2005 12:29

Hi

I am new to Mumsnet. Started a thread this morning about TTC Feb baby but Piffle sugg I join this one. I have a DD who is 2 and have been trying for 1 month. Got pregnant immediately with DD and thought same would happen again but didn't. Can't stand the waiting and counting. AF came on 4 May so will be TTC again shortly. Any tips?

milosmum · 10/05/2005 12:57

welcome starryeyed- i also got preg with DS the first time of trying but have now been trying for 1 1/2yrs- but this thread is extremely lucky in the past 2 months there have been alot of BFP ... we all keep each other sain on here and we have lots of tips. Are you temping or using OPKs - if so where are you up to? We are all really nosy and want to know where everyone is up to.....

Well girls fertiltyfriend says im now 3DPO but the opk never picked up ov so, we ll see....

StarryEyed · 10/05/2005 13:06

Hi I am struggling slightly with the acronyms Does OPK refer to ovulation kits? If so I am not using one. Just playing by ear. I will be 36 on the 27th of this month and have a DD who is 2. My AF arrived on 4 May Trying for a month after coming off the pill in April. Have I missed anything out

teuch · 10/05/2005 13:45

Nemo1977 · 10/05/2005 15:59

Take care all

StarryEyed · 10/05/2005 16:17

Are any of you imagining pregnancy symptoms? I was convinced I was pregnant last week - headaches, backaches, swollen belly, nauseous (sp) but AF arrived on 04/05

Bella23 · 10/05/2005 16:17

Nemo - wishing you all the luck in the world!!

StarryEyed · 10/05/2005 16:18
