Evening! DP is at work tonight - he's not done an evening for ages and I'm enjoying a night in alone. A catch up with desperate housewives & MN .
I am starting to drive myself mad thinking about my ov date and symptoms. Google is dangerous to a girl in the grip of 2ww madness. As is chart searching on the TCOYF website and FF. I've felt sick for the last 2 days & my nipples are tender (when touched). As a result I keep convincing myself I must be pregnant & not just pre menstrual. Clearly I'm totally ignoring the fact I had these symptoms last month. In fact my temp was the highest yet this morning, my first thought: triphasic! Not that was a mild night and I wokw up half an hour later. I must not set myself up for a fall. Please keep me sane.
Due my crazy thinking I decided to go for a run this evening to try and clear my head. I felt sick all the way round my normal route and when a fly went into my mouth I was nearly threw up on the spot. It was disgusting though and clearly would have made anyone sick - not just a crazy baby lady.
felicity Yey for your shortest cycle yet! I've looked and looked for anything about a long luteal phase and can't really find anything about it. Hopefully it won't affect your ability to conceive at all and could even be a good thing. You are so going to be an expert on charting by the time you start TTC! How did tennis go? I've done lots of exercise this week but have been a bit greedy food wise.
cavemum You could stop half way through the next pack? Is that allowed? I waited until I'd finished a pack as I wasn't sure what would happen if I just stopped taking it but I'm sure some people do just stop when they feel like it. I also take my temperature under the tongue although I have to hold it there otherwise it falls out really easily.
whiteroses I think I was lurking when you got your BFP - can't believe you are 20 weeks now. Congrats on having a boy, that's really exciting I will also be finding out if possible - I agree about having so much going on at first that knowing the sex in advance will not take anything away from the excitement.
Oneof8 I feel you will the symptom spotting - I'm a normal person with a relaxed approach to TTC except for during the final week of the 2ww. Fingers crossed you get your BPF this cycle and you don't return to your previous problems.
Jungle Sorry about AF. I expect i'll be joining you on cycle 6 in about a week.
claire Sorry about AF. I know you've already had loads of advice about GP's but I wanted to also express my anger on your behalf that you are expected to wait 2 years & your GP is unsupportive. I would maybe go back when I was feeling assertive and stress that you really feel someone should be looked at sooner rather than later - just to get on the waiting lists if nothing else. Maybe even take DH? Totally up to you and I'm sending super positive thoughts to you for your next cycle.
kaloki AF still staying away? I hope so.
pinkie Any sign of AF? Good luck with your docs appointment Friday - I hope you get some answers.
wannamummy How are you getting on? Still waiting for AF?
pipsicles I hope you got your quickie in! How did DH can on with his interview today?
zippys Good luck with your test . Nightmare having to stay over during SWI week! I hope you and DH have grabbed a few moments anyway.
Mrswajs You are one hot lady! My highest temp has only been 36.72c! Really pleased for you that your DP found a new job.
lucky ooh very exciting about the scan date. That's brill that you get to go early. In my area some seem to go at 10, others 12 so I'm not sure what the norm is for me. Glad you had a good holiday & I hope MS doesn't hit you too badly.
Talking about pills I thought your pill was out of your system the first day you stop but it's the hormones that take up to a year to return to normal levels? Maybe all are different. I was on Microgynon 30 which I think it's the bog standard pill.
Also does MN look normal to everyone again? Short pages, not purple. Maybe they listened to you Aires?
Right that's taken ages - back to the housewives.
