Have started temping and am going to carry on. Seems much cheaper and something to take to the doctors if I have to resort to that option.

PoppyIsApain · 22/11/2009 20:53

Sorry but what is temping, i would like to try anything, can anyone please explain it to me

Muser · 22/11/2009 21:02

I've never done it Poppy. But from what I understand you need a basal thermometer. That's different to an ordinary one, it can record much smaller changes.

You take your temp every morning at the same time before you do anything. When it rises you're oving, but that's where my knowledge is a bit hazy. I think you can use the Fertility Friend website to help track your temps. That and monitoring EWCM will help you pinpoint the right time.

Hi girls!

I'm new to this & would like to join the August bus please!! According to the MN due date calculator if I'm sucessful this cycle my due date will be 27th August.
AF got me today, so my stats are TTC#1 CD1.....umm I think that's it!!
I'm 28 and tarted trying to TTC in October, after being on the pill for about 11 years, so this is my third cycle - first month I didn't really pay much attention to anything, last month I started tracking dates etc and I've bought some ovulation sticks in preparation for this month!!
Best of luck to everyone!!

bigmuther65 · 23/11/2009 09:25

sorry to see you at the back Lou and Goldie do you mean retiring as in not trying again for another?

I am 8dpo and have a strange lower area dragging ache (around bikini line level) which I have never felt before. Or maybe its early AF pains - however it does feel different to those. I think perhaps I'm over analysing though - as you do Anyone had anything similar that resulted in positive test?

mabh · 23/11/2009 13:42

Sorry to hear that goldie .

Flowery I know what you mean about symptoms. I found the problem is that I got so unused to things not changing during the month when I was on the pill, that every little thing still feels odd to me and I used to convince myself it was a pg symptom. Sadly so far, have only been 'normal' cyclical symptoms! And are you another veggie?

Nymph we have more in common than living in the middle of nowhere. I too am a veggie and am at Zeffirellis cafe roughly every other Saturday. We find that the cinema is often very quiet for the Saturday afternoon showing, if you are ever free then. I don't know Backbarrow - I went to North Lakes Spa for my hen night.. ahem... are you sure we aren't related???? I'm not sure that the centre of Ambleside was flooded - I thought it was just the access road. Could be wrong, though. In the meanwhile, mainline that chocolate mousse.

mummy mrszac points I never got a +ve on OPKs despite getting ovulation pains. I now have a CB monitor and it picked OV right up, on the pain day. I don't know what it is about the sticks - maybe you have to have incredibly concentrated pee or something.

Sorry for the long post folks... you have been interesting over the weekend...

pat42 · 23/11/2009 14:53

More BFPs please. We really need them. Congrats to Chulita, Queen and Kaylo.
Had convinced myself this was the month, but the witch caught up with me. Anyway, new cycle, new hope.

I meant I couldn't have got there ^mabh

mabh · 23/11/2009 17:26

nymph oh I see. A592 and Backbarrow bridge shut. (**&%$£ this is going to be annoying! If it's any comfort, I couldn't have got there, either - Pooley Bridge flooded, St. John's in the Vale shut.

Hey-up -

mabh · 23/11/2009 17:28

Oh, and go to New Moon in Kendal.. that Pattinson bloke does the trick

PlantASeedWatchItGrow · 23/11/2009 17:58

Still no AF here! I'm so confused! I don't know what to do! I tried to get some cheap tests from amazon earlier, but postage for 1-2day delivery was £12!!!! The tests (ov and PG) and a basal thermometer only came to £5, on thier own, so I wasn't going to pay that for them!

The last test I done was last week, Thur or Fri , all have been -tive. Is it possible to be pregnant and still have -tives??

PoppyIsApain · 23/11/2009 18:10

Hi ladies, im on CD5 and really dizzy, i had this for a week last month after AF and its making me feel really ill, does anyone else get this? Im thinking of going the doc's tomorrow but don't want to waste their time.

nymphadora · 23/11/2009 18:12

mabh Will probably go to barrow for new moon if it doesn't come to ulverston soon. Ulverston pictures is brilliant cos it still has half time with the ice cream lady!
Where was the other place you recommended?

PlantASeedWatchItGrow · 23/11/2009 18:18

poppy they might want to check your iron levels. It sounds like you could be anemic(sp?) , do you take iron?

It could be something else completely, but if it around CD5, it would make sense as you are bleeding, therefore losing iron.

nymphadora · 23/11/2009 18:44

Its ok mabh I found it, looks fab!

Dh went a bit green at the price though

PoppyIsApain · 23/11/2009 18:52

plant i don't take any iron supplements, i thought i may be aneamic but dont want to get all hypochondriac on my dh and mum.
I was really bad at morrisons earlier, the only thing that stopped me 'swimming' was a couple of jam rings, i felt almost faint.
I think i have got to go doc's.

nymphadora · 23/11/2009 18:56

www.sharrowbay.co.uk/fine_dining.asp?Page=menus mabh this one?

Muser · 23/11/2009 19:06

Go to the docs. You are not wasting their time.

JamieJay · 23/11/2009 19:17

Just a quick post to say I POAS yesterday (CD28) and got a positive! Not yet a BFP but a positive all the same.

Am now totally terrified after the mc last time and can't get excited yet, DH is being really sweet and looking after me.

Assuming this bean sticks I'm due on 2nd August which just happens to be my 30th birthday.

Congrats to the other BFP's and here's hoping that you all get a BFP of your own as the month progresses.

Poppy go to the GP, it could be your iron levels and you need to as high as possible before pregnancy.

Plant it can take a while for positive to show up so you could still be pregnant - good luck!
