Hey ladies, not been on for a few days, birthday weekend and trying to forget all about TTC. Still no AF, I know I'm not preg so just looking forward to it coming to get my cycle started properly! (I never thought I would be saying that) only just over a month off pill so probably taking a while to work itself out... I was rather hoping I was super-fertile though

does anyone reccomend the ovulation tests? how to the rest of you lovely ladies track ovulation?

Need to change my stats, my period decided to turn up on day 19

So it's now
TTC#1 cycle 2 UCL? CD 1

jumblequeen · 22/11/2009 16:48

mrsZaC - that's a really good attitude to have. I'm sure you'll have no trouble at all.

I tracked ovulation via the somewhat icky means of having a look at my cervicular mucus (sorry, TMI) - for me this was the easiest method but I think you'd do just as well tracking your basal temperature if you're not already in tune with your body's secretions...

Kaloki - sorry to hear AF got you. Is your cycle usually irregular?

Antdamn is your internet playing up again??

PandaSam · 22/11/2009 20:27

Hi again everyone. Just thought I'd better update.

Knew that posting on MN would be the end for me! AF arrived the very next day and so have been feeling awful all weekend. However did bring about conversation with me and DP and he has now agreed we can properly start TTC next year. So every cloud etc!

legallyblond I'm in a similar position work wise - so DP has said we should wait until May - argh how to wait six more months!!

Good luck to everyone else - hope you all get BFPs soon!

Kaloki · 23/11/2009 00:24

"Kaloki - sorry to hear AF got you. Is your cycle usually irregular?"

Nope, normally totally regular

mrsZaC · 23/11/2009 11:23

thanks jumble, how does tracking your CM work?... is there a chart or something? not TMI at all, I think from start to finish pregnancy is usually all about TMI!!

Kaloki sorry to hear about the arrival of AF, have you just come off BC aswell? or have you been off for a while.

Kaloki · 23/11/2009 13:31

Just had the coil removed, but it seemed to have gone back to normal. Evidently not. Ah well, fingers crossed for this month

sparechange · 24/11/2009 10:10

Hello ladies,
how are you all today?
Nothing to report from Sparechange Towers, but thinking of everyone else...

jumblequeen · 24/11/2009 10:57

mrsZaC - there's a good article on it here but at your most fertile time (ie ovulation) you're looking for a CM that is not unlike egg while (yuck). It was the most reliable method for me as I'm usually totally out of it in the morning (the time you have to chart your basal temp)!

Pandasam - sorry to hear that. It's definitely a good thing if it got you and your partner talking though . Plus, you get to enjoy a guilt-free christmas!

Hello Sparechange! No news is good news, as they say....

jumblequeen · 24/11/2009 16:57

I SAW MY TINY LITTLE BABY!!

I have to go back in 10 days time for yet another scan but the nurses were totally happy with how my pregnancy is progressing. I'm so happy!

Thanks girls for all your support x x x x

mrsZaC · 24/11/2009 18:21

woo hoo! jumble that's fantastic news!

thanks for the link, will have a week look

Antdamm · 24/11/2009 19:25

Hey Ladies,

Sorry for the absence - have been doing finishing touches to genealogy gift for DP's Mum. It's been very difficult. Taking up all of my time.

But it is finished now Yay!

Back to me - AF has left the building I think, so it would appear as if it was a proper one - just really early

So, as usual - No idea what is going on!

How's everyone else??

Antdamm · 24/11/2009 19:26

Sorry jumble - managed to miss your news...

I'm sooooooo happy for you!!!!!

jumblequeen · 25/11/2009 12:02

Thanks Ant! You girls have all been so supportive... I'm absolutely thrilled to bits.
Best of luck for this month, I'm sure a BFP is coming your way soon!

mrsZaC · 25/11/2009 14:39

hey jumble just been reading back through this thread and see you've had quite a time of it over the last few days... what did they conclude from your ordeal? glad it's all worked out well, must have been amazing seeing your tiny weeny baba!

legallyblond · 25/11/2009 16:59

Jumble... YAY!!!! So so happy for you!

harmonyb23 · 26/11/2009 10:04

Hey everyone, sorry I haven't been on here in ages. I have had to have a second injection of the methotrexate drug to treat the ectopic but it seems to have worked and I have had my first period since the treatment.

So happy that things have worked out better for you Jumble my story must have worried you slightly (I read back through the posts) but I am really happy you've been able to see the baby and all is progressing well.

Congratulations Kaylo and good luck to everyone else. I myself have got to wait until my next cycle before I can start ttc again, can't wait...

seanybosmummysfedupwaiting · 26/11/2009 13:52

Jumble congrats hun!!!! Im so pleased for you, you both must be so relieved!!

hello ladies, how is everyone today? bored as too pooped to make it to the gym with DH, and feeling guilty! also bored of waiting, feel in limbo as AF STILL not here, really want it to appear so I can get my cycle started! soooooooooo tempted to poas but know it will most likely be a bfn! trying my hardest to wait till at least next week, as that will be the next possible time I can get + hmmmm..... If only I'd thought about this before we started TTC, then i would have waited for my first AF before I started, poo! Anyway sorry, ramblin on, hope your all well this evening!

much love x

Antdamm · 30/11/2009 11:18

Hello Ladies,

Where have you all gone????

Sorry, I have not been on in agggeesss. Our internet got cut off, for reasons completely unknown to us - so just been reconnected. On the plus side - they are giving us next month for free!

How is everyone? You must have all had busy weekends

Seany?
Bubble?
Kaylo?
Where are you guys hiding??

Jumble, how are you doing?

I have nothing to report as usual.....

Have been watching 16 & pregnant on MTV, has anyone else seen it?

Amazing really, I couldn't imagine being pregnant at 16. Although I was pregnant at 19, and managed to miss being a 'teen mum' by turning 20 lol

seanybosmummysfedupwaiting · 30/11/2009 16:48

Hi everyone,

Sorry i've been away so long-we were moving house, so things have been a bit hectic!!

All sorted now thank goodness!!

How is everyone doing? Bet your glad you got the family tree finished Ant!

OP posts:
Antdamm · 01/12/2009 09:29

Hey Seany,

Did you move far? (Did I already ask this??)
Are you all settled in?

How is the weather up your way? We had a really foggy mist that was here for the whole day on Saturday - it was terrible, couldn't see 2 foot in front of you. We decided not to venture out that day and just stayed in with the fire on in front of the telly

Have you any other news?

seanybosmummysfedupwaiting · 01/12/2009 13:53

Hey Ant and everyone!

Didnt move too far Ant, over the other side of town,but still the same distance to work so no complaints from me .

No other news apart from to say i think the clomid has worked as i've been getting so much cm this month (sorry for tmi )

AF due next friday so i'll just have to wait and see.. work christmas dinner the day af is due,so no doubt she will rear her ugly face on time for a change!!!

How is everyone else today?

TejasGal · 01/12/2009 14:09

Just wondering if I can join in too? I've been lurking for awhile trying to get up the nerve...

I'm TTC no.1 Cycle 2, CD21, UCL 35 (give or take) so you can sense that this evening might be a busy one in the Tejas house...!

Other facts: I have PCOS, was diagnosed about a year and a half ago and has been mainly under control through diet/exercise/metformin. I am in the process of doing a course of ultrasounds to determine whether I'm ovulating, and the results are promising so far...follicle has developed and now we're just waiting to see if the ovary releases it or it gets stuck but I'm having some encouraging pains in my left side at the moment.

I don't really talk about this too much in RL so looking forward to having an outlet. Good luck to all!!

seanybosmummysfedupwaiting · 02/12/2009 20:24

welcome tejasgal,i wish you all the luck in the world. a good friend of mine is ttc with pcos and i know how tough it can be mentally,with all the tests etc

How are all you girlies today?

I havent been on much cause ive been trying to get the new house sorted.Nearly there now though

Its cd20 for me, and i am not symptom spotting or testing this month.i am officially chilling out for christmas

I am such a greedy gorb today! no matter what i eat im still hungry-just had a packet of weightwatchers crisps,some ben&gerrys cherry garcia frozen yoghurt and a third of a jar of pickled onions. im just realising how ridiculous it sounds that i had the ww crisps along with that,it was totally pointless lol

Ant sorry i totally blanked your Q yest about the weather up here-it is keeky bobo as usual,rain rain and more rain.didnt have any mist on saturday though-just as well coz we moved house that day lol A day in front of the tv does sound great though
