caz -sorry about af, would you thing about trying the soft cups? I had heard about the negative effects green tea could have so I only did drank the green tea until I oved. I figured all I really needed it for was cm anyway! HOpe you feel better soon hun!

Wait - sorry af gotcha hun....huge hug!

Winston - oh that is great news...isnt that number raelly high? Maybe you oved 2 eggys!!!!

DM - your reading is great news....i sent mine off to cheri but didnt pay for it so who knows when she will answer. I should go on and pay but havent made the time....Can you pm me sandras email address?

Lisa- chart looking wonderful hun!

Tink - I am not sure if I believe it in but I do feel that there is something to it...if that makes sense....I am afraid Cheri is going to come back and tell me that I wont get pg till 2014 or something like that....lol

isi - hope af gets ya soon so you can start on the next cycle.

KS - The OPK's are probably really sensitive so by you having something to drink it will dilute it. You have to make sure you dont drink or wee for at least 4 hours before you test.

loulou - I cant beleive how fast your first tri is going!

welcome to all the newbies!

AFM - temp is up but I looked at the fab chart I had last month and this is exactly where my temps were at 11 dpo last month so I am not to excited. I guess if anything it is good news my body is working properly! have a good day everyone!

Hey everyone... a lot to catch up on! lol!
Welcome to the newcomers.

Annie - I highly recommend charting temps. Because of that I figured out I wasn't ovulating on my own and when my first Clomid cycle had no clearly positive OPK, I still knew I'd O'd based on my temps. Its also clued me into the fact that I might have a progesterone deficiency (low temps and spotting prior to AF coming) that convinced me to insist on cd21 bloodwork (my doc was fine with me temping and using OPKs to confirm ovulation). My results have shown ovulation, but with lower than normal progesterone. The biggest benefit I feel is knowing when my period is due... if you don't ovulate, you know its not coming.. if you ovulate late, you know it will be a few days 'late' etc.

me- I'm getting upset at my temperatures. Yes, its looking like ovulation happened, but my temps are WAY lower than normal! My acupuncturist is going to order the 7dpo bloodtest for me so we can see the actual number... if its bad then I'm going to need to fork over the cash and see a specialist to get on progesterone supplements officially.

i thought it was no wee for 2 hours? ill try one at about half 6 n that wil be 2 n half hours n c wot happens lol xx

 

[tink28]

keepsmiling -why dont u try digi opks? i know they're more expensive but they are so much easier, i had 5 days of negs then 2 smiley faces and now back to neg again

Annie- just to echo what others have said here def try temping, i actually hate it cos im so used to not seeing a rise due to annovulatory cycles but its really useful and does help confirm O and give u a better idea whats going on

ttcbaby- i know what u mean i definitely think theres truth in it but just didnt seem to connect with that reading when i looked at it. ive always felt i would have a girl, would be over the moon whatever but thats just my gut feeling! fingers xd for u for this cycle hope u get the bfp

lisaf- hope your number isnt too bad but at least if it is u can get help from your specialist

i have everything crossed for everyone!

oh btw with my opk being neg today do u think i ovulated today or yesterday (it was pos yesterday) whats more likely? hard to tell i know!

omg!! iv had enuff of these stooopid opks! all they do is windin me up. last month i got negs n then got 2nd lines which gradually got darker
this month theyve all had 2nd lines since cd 13, yesterday it had a gr8 2line but iv just dun one and its gone faint again
im just wondering if its cos i had 2 cupos of tea and the wee wasnt very dark,, if i hold my wee for 2 -3 hours and do another one at 6-7 wil that be better? or shud i just wait til tomo xx

Just do it every other day from cd 8 ... look up the egg meets sperm plan hun

[Annie18]

Thanks for all your advice and been so welcoming, just bought basal thermometer, just need to figure out how to chart now and wait for AF so can start cycle 2.
Hi Lilly, nice to hear from you and not be the only new one.

Good luck to everyone who is still in this month, god to hear that clomid does work gives me some hope xx

Ok guys i need some CM advice.....I NEVER get EWCM when I ov. So I just checked my cm and it seems to have pieces that are clear and ewcm like but then the rest is lotiony...does that make sense. Those pieces that arel ike ewcm seem to stretch quite well...never seen it like that before. How do I record it on FF?

 

[Annie18]

ttc baby i am not sure how to define it, but was just looking on FF and they have a section on CM and charting the different types so that might help.

 

[lisaf]

Annie - FF is the best place to learn how to chart your temps! I love them!

TTC ... hmmm. I wonder if that is the same kind of CM I had last time.... it was mostly lotiony but I'd get these globs that were more like snot than EWCM (held its shape more than EWCM and was definitely blobs of it, not normal EW stuff)... I started a thread here on BnB about it and some women seem to get it (some say they only get it when pregnant). It made me very hopeful last cycle but it did stop the day after that weird/possible+ test so its possible it was related to pregnancy with me but I had a chemical.
I just noticed it happening again for me... only 5dpo though.

 

[lisaf]

oh... and I put it down as creamy, not EWCM since it wasn't the same as my EWCM so I didn't want FF to get confused about my O date and when I was fertile.

 

[ttcbaby117]

oh lisa.....have I told you how much I love you!!!! You just described it perfectly!!!!! Snotty!!!!! Well, I have had it the past 2 days...disregarded it yesterday but couldnt today. Well I guess I will have to wait and see!
