Den26 · 25/08/2009 18:50

Hi All, i hope you don't mind me popping in! I'm all very new to this. Had a miscarriage 2 months ago and now TTC again. Have been in two minds about joining incase i become too obsessed, but it really helps to hear others in the same situ! Thought i would say hi and also see if anyone else has similar feelings?

bluesnowfalcon · 26/08/2009 07:09

Den26 hi and welcome - i'm realatively new to this too and have found that the information and support is really useful!

Not in the same situation as you as we are just TTC #1 but I hope all goes well for you

Hollyoaks · 26/08/2009 08:03

Den26 welcome and good luck, hope it all goes well second time around.

Whitty I'm 27, turning 28 at the start of next year. So your still the youngest.

Den26 · 26/08/2009 19:02

Hi Bluesnowfalcon and Hollyoaks, thanks.

Bluesnowfalcon, i have to agree, i have found it to be very supportive over last few months.

First time TTC how exciting!! We weren't really trying last time although not being very careful, decided to let it happen if it happens. Now we've experienced it, we know its definately what we want, so fingers crossed it happens soon!

Good luck to both of you

Since you have all added your ages, im 26 (as you can probaby guess by my username!)

whittywantababy6 · 26/08/2009 22:18

Geez so I'm still the youngest oh well...you would never know it.

whittywantababy6 · 27/08/2009 14:00

Hey ladies just dropping through...not feeling to well kind of feel like im on a boat...anywho hope all is well

whittywantababy6 · 27/08/2009 15:04

So I want someones opinion on my temps...after ovulation doesnt it sound weird why that much of a dip on 5 dpo its the lowest Ive gone this cycle.

My cover line is 97.7

dpo 1-97.9
dpo 2-98.0
dpo 3-97.9
dpo 4-97.9
dpo 5-97.3
dpo 6-97.7
dpo 7-09.7
dpo 8-97.9

Thanks ladies

Hollyoaks · 27/08/2009 17:09

I'm a bit puzzled when it comes to temping, is the fact that its staying high since you ovulated not a good thing? Not sure about the dip on dpo 5 though.

Sorry I'm not much help but didnt want to leave you stranded.

Well I officially started ttc last night, legs in the air, bum on a pillow and all that. I dont ovulate till next week but we thought we'd get the practise in.

bluesnowfalcon · 27/08/2009 19:23

LOL hollyoaks love the legs in the air and bum on a pillow!!

whitty sorry I don't know anything about temping - we aren't yet so haven't tried to find out about it yet. You could try joining the May Bus thread and ask over there as there seems to be more people temping and using OPK's (not sure I know much about those either!). There might be someone over there who can throw some light on the temps for you?! Hope you find out soem answers and that they are all ok

Den26 · 27/08/2009 20:29

Hey Whitty - sorry i'm not much help either afraid

whittywantababy6 · 27/08/2009 23:26

LOL thank you ladies...uhm just some info if your temp stays high for 18 days of ovulation is good...some say dips are cause by implantation. I have been charting for 6 cycles now and this is the first major dip ever...but this month I dont even recall if I BD'd around ovulation. So I will wait til day 12 which supposed to be the end of my normal luteal phase and we shall see. I have a drs. appt on the 21st of september I will wait til then. If I'am with child I will be six weeks just in time for a scan. he he he.

lots of baby dust to all

Hollyoaks · 28/08/2009 08:10

Whitty you seem like you know your stuff. All those temps look promising, good luck

Hope everyone is well.

bluesnowfalcon · 28/08/2009 16:06

Good luck with that whitty - glad you know what you are doing!

Hollyoaks · 30/08/2009 09:23

Whitty any news to report? Is it time to test yet?

whittywantababy6 · 30/08/2009 14:32

Well my normal luteal phase is 12 days...but since I ovulate early this month I'm not sure what to expect. Im currently 11 dpo today. So I wont test for another week I dont want to go out buy a test then..BAM the witch comes.

I honestly want to wait until my drs. appt on the 21st of September this way she could confirm everything and get my first scan

We shall see...how is everyone these days

April80 · 31/08/2009 20:39

Hi everyone!
Hope everyone has had a good bank holiday weekend.

Whitty it all sounds promising, i'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Im on CD 11 and have started my OPK, nothing to report yet tho. Going to start BDing anyway, you never no!
Found out today that my sister in law is pg, she told me they were going to start TTC about 12 weeks ago and she is 12 weeks pg. Really pleased for them, i had a feeling it wouldnt take them long!
Feeling a bit down,why cant we get pg first time!!!Thats now 3 people we know!

On a happier note we are off on our honeymoon next sunday! I am so hoping that we make a honeymoon baby!!!

whittywantababy6 · 31/08/2009 20:43

Hey april thanks for the support...your not alone I just found out my younger cousin is now pregnant she is 3 years younger then I which is rediculout...so trust I know the feeling. But trust our turns will come when the time is right. I hope your honeymoon is filled with baby dust.

How is everyone?

bluesnowfalcon · 01/09/2009 07:12

Morning everyone - glad it's been quiet here over the weekend cos it means that it was easy to catch up on all the gossip.

Hope everyone had a good weekend

Whitty keeping fingers crossed for you x

April hope it goes well for you

whittywantababy6 · 02/09/2009 20:06

Hey ladies just wanted to let you know I have gotten 2 BFN tested yesterday afternoon and today when I got off work. I'am now supposedly 14 dpo according to fertility friend. So I'm a little discouraged think I'm done testing for now.

April80 · 02/09/2009 22:14

whitty I thought you were going to wait until the 21st?!?
I think you may have tested to early so don't give up yet!! There is still hope!

I'm still doing my OPK, i'm on CD 13 and no luck as yet.

How is everyone? Anyone getting close to testing?

xxxxxx

bluesnowfalcon · 03/09/2009 09:23

whitty it's not over til the red lady sings! Good luck

I tested this morning with an ebay cheapy and got a BFN so think I'll be rolling over to cycle 3 soon. Af due Sunday ish so I guess I'll wait til then and see what happens.

Good luck all

Kaylo · 04/09/2009 07:53

Hi Everyone - geeez you guys took some finding

My laptop decided to melt the carger wire and have been waiting weeks for the replacement to be delivered.

Am officially TTC now, Think on my last post all those moons ago it was the week before last AF, well I'm on the 2ww - testing 10th Sept but very very tempted to go and buy a first response to test today. supposedly they give a result 6days before AF?
Anyone know if this is true and accurate?

How is everyone? Havent read thru all the posts as there a gazillion but will try to read thru last few days

Kaylo · 04/09/2009 07:54

ooops - was supposed to say charger wire

some things never change....lol
