Aussies trying to get duffered aged 20+ !!!

[kiwipauagirl]

Hi ladies, I have a question for you! (not sure if anyone will know!) but since Friday I have had really bad cramping, like the worst cramps ever (apart from labour!!) I'm thinking maybe it's the vitex, it seems weird that it would start only after ovulation (assuming I did O on Friday?!) but don't want to stop taking it until O has been confirmed! What would you do?

Sorry LLPM I am not sure. Is the Vitex that vitex agnus cactus thing??? A friend of mine who was having very long cycles (nearly 2mths and some months not even ovulating) was told by her GP to stop taking it. She is only 27yrs. But I don't know if it is this (vitex) or if your cramps are something else. Maybe chat to your GP and hopefully they can help you. Sorry I can't help

Only one week left til we move in with his parents now and most of the hard work is to done.

Was talking to a friend I hadn't talked to in ages was so lovely and it was so funny..At the end of the convo she turned around and said "I don't know why but I feel the next time I talk to you, you will be pregnant" hahaha She doesn't even know we are trying Just made me so happy Who knows maybe she is psychic haha have had two other psychics tell me that I will be pregnant in the next 6 months so HOPEFULLY they are right

[Pammy31]

all you girls with opk +'s and me getting to my last 2 days of flow.... is anyone here on the same as me? I dont think so. On the upside I told DH I am going to see the doc this month and see if I have pcos or if I ov. He said well it could be me and my swimmers. I said when you are ready to TTC we will get a check on your Sperm. I think i had a breakthrough.

[kiwipauagirl]

Well done Pammy on your breakthrough with DH.

I think I am full of questions at the moment... here is another one. All day today I have been getting period pain like cramps on my left side. I don't normally suffer any PMS symptoms and to be honest I have only been getting period cramps on the first day for the last couple of months. Does anyone know what this could be? I have tried googling it but not coming up with anything. Has anyone had these before in the middle of your cycle??

My weekend is nearly over. Too lazy to do anything today so going to order in pizza and chillax by the tv tonight (and then get a little active later on )

ANGEL: sounds like a very productive weekend. Do you want to come over and clean out my cupboards as well? Fingers crossed for your job.
MELANIEY: maybe your friend is psychic! Ha she can come and read my tealeaves LOL

GOOD MORNING TO EVERYONE ELSE! can't believe monday is here again already. Only 5 more working days and I am on 2wks holidays YIPPEEEEEE can't wait for the break. Have a wonderful day girls.

 

[LLPM]

Well I'm totally bummed! Look at my temp this morning. I took it half an hour earlier than usual. But i was awake and had a good 9hours before...I was so SURE I ovulated! All the signs were there too! Hmmm

 

[Maddy40]

LLPM that's a bugger. Hope your cycle settles soon. Do you think, like Angel, your body is protecting you from conception for some greater health reason?

Nothing exciting here - I have started to temp but still not hopeful it's going to be much use to me, given my erratic work and sleep hours....gives me something to do while DH is away though.

Hope we get SOME news soon to buoy us all along.

 

[number2woohoo]

I'm not sure my temps are accurate at all - I don't seem to be sleeping well, so they are never after solid sleep - they are after tossing and turning type sleep. I suspect I'm going to ovulate very soon though, EWCM and a partial fern this morning.
Llpm I would be more likely to trust the CM than the temps in that regard. Too many variables that can affect temp but it's a bit hard to get CM wrong.

 

[LLPM]

Maddy I'm really not sure! I dont think so...my general health is good, but our siuation may not be so great for a new baby just now! We're moving in December and starting a new job/new life I guess! There's going to be lots of changes so maybe it's just not the right time!
I really feel like the milk/colostrum issue might have something to do with it but maybe also having my ovarian cyst removed last year has had an impact too! Even though they said it wouldn't affect fertility I'm sure playing around poking & prodding your ovaries isn't that great really! So I don't really know. It's very frustrating in the meantime though!

Yeah I agree #2! I'm sure I have already ovulated, but just don't have the proof yet, unless it's going to be the same as last month where my body gears up for it & then it never happens?! Time will tell...
Even though I slept well Maggie woke at 5am, we didn't get up to her she usually just falls back to sleep if we leave her, so even though technically I didn't move I was still awake an hour before my temp was taken! So you're right it isn't always reliable!

 

[number2woohoo]

Had a terrible dream. It was long and complicated but it was I think based on 2mums telling us you had a better chance of conception if you orgasm. It was like a close up of my cervix and it had teeth and was trying to slurp up anything that came near it as it contracted. Best not be telling the other half about that one or he might be too scared to put anything of his up there...

 

[Mum 2 Quigley]

morning ladies, hope you all have a great day today!

LLPM, see what your temp does tomorrow, might just be an 'off' temp.

Angel - take it easy today & good luck tomorrow with interview!

Melainey - what I wouldn't do to get DH in a bath with wine! haha not really his thing, but I bet you had a lovely night!!!!!

Kiwi - it could be ovulation cramps, some ladies get it at the time of Ov...

love to you all!

 

[Newbie32]

Morning girlies

LLPM i agree with squigley - there can be fallback temps as well at 2/3 dpo...so FX it jumps back up for you again tomorrow xx

GL Angel - i hope you are feeling better today and have a great interview xx

Kiwi - i agree sounds like could be ov pains - i get them sometimes before and sometimes i think during and sometimes after o!!! GL hun - i hope you caught it!

Well im pleased to report that im not suffering anything from post ride which is a nice surprise!!! Ive just realised that i have forgotten to bring opk's with me today so gonna have to wait to test unti i get home but thats ok, i am deffo much more relaxed about it this month!!!

Hope everyone has a fab day lovelys!!!

Much love xxxxxxx

Number2 that is a hilarious dream!!!

 

[Trying2b2mums]

2woohoo--- glad i could be the 'source' of an incredibly horrifying dream!! And I agree, maybe not tell DH about that one, scary!! Teeth are not their favourite thing
