I've always been jealous of anyone who can do accounting. Though, I think I'd from boredom.

You live in one of my bucket list countries. Someday I'll get there

Is it roasting there? Here across the pond it's crazy warm, we complain when it's not warm but now it's 27 degrees and I'm sticky!!

 

[Bing28]

MnG - I specialise in forensic accounting so it's a bit more interesting! Let me know if you every make it here and I'll be more than happy to give you some recommendations of places to visit.

Lith - Yes it's very hot here at the moment. But it means the underground is not very pleasant in this weather! Where abouts are you?

Still no AF for me yet. Wish she would hurry up so I could get on with my next cycle.

[Lithodora]

Oh the underground must be hell. I was staying in London for two weeks in June a few years back and it was SO warm in the city centre, it feels so much hotter with all the buildings, glass and concrete.

I'm basically a little bit outside Dublin, but everybody thinks everything in Ireland is just outside Dublin so that doesn't narrow it down

 

[Mintastic]

Eeek! I don't know whether to be disappointed or excited.
I am bleeding (quite a bit on tp and when I put my hand there - nothing in undies yet but I just woke up and...gravity). It seems like too much to be ib and is probably AF but...
Not expecting AF til the 30th -although cycles not regular so that may be meaningless. But my positive OPK was on the 18th so I am maybe 6-7dpo? And babymed's calculator said today exactly would be when I should expect to implant if I caught the egg.

I had a chemical about a year ago and had ib but I can't remember how much blood there was as we weren't TTC then so that wasn't obsessively tracking things.

Here's the other thing. I haven't had any PMS symptoms - none.
Obviously now it is just a big waiting game to see if this turns into full flow or not. I hope not because if so that would mean my lp was way too short right?!

Thoughts?

 

[Bing28]

Lith - my brother in law is from Dublin. His family live in Howth. I've been there twice, it's beautiful.

Mint - FX'd it's IB! When are you going to test? I think HPT should show up 4-5 days after IB (although sometimes sooner).

Oooh forensics sounds fun! If reincarnation exists I'd definitely go into that. For now though I work in a hospital hoping to do baby ultrasounds eventually

Thank you so much for the offer. Maybe in the next 10 years. I was born in Poland and need to visit family before they all pass on..maybe it'll be a 10 yr anniversary trip and do all of Europe in one shot. . (If I win the lotto first, haha)

 

[Mintastic]

Thanks Bing - I suppose testing now depends on whether or not this turns into full flow? Will just have to see if it stops. My periods are usually long like 8 days 6 at minimum so if this bleeding is shorter than that I will start testing.

 

[Bing28]

Wow...I feel lucky mine are only 2 days maximum!

Just had my Dr call me and my day 21 progesterone level was 51 which she said was normal. Thyroid, iron levels, kidney & liver function all normal too!

Got to have it done again next month to make sure my body is being consistent month to month.

[Bing28]

As expected the witch just arrived, so I can now move on to my next cycle!

So really having my FX that it is IB. Hope this is the month for you -- like I wish it to all the ladies in the forum.

So, this cycle has been cray cray. Never have I had cramping like this - mid cycle - O pain - OMG like I was O-ing for 5 days straight -- possibly because I forgot to take my clomid for a few days and then decided to pop it.

I had that weird gray stuff appear. No odor - etc.

Well according to my apps I am 9-11 dpo
I haven't tested this morning - I decided I am going to wait until tomorrow. Though yesterday I tested and it was a big fat NO with First Response.

AF is due between the 27-29 of July on CD24 -26.
Varies.

CD 21 (yesterday)
Tired and dizzy-ish and fever-ish. Let me explain. So I woke up in the early am like 4 am busting to pee--so I tested stark BFN.
Then worked - meeting etc. I felt a general weakness in my lower limbs like .. I was going to topple over because i was dizzy. Boobies are sore - cramping is weird. Middle floor of vagina - left ovary and twanging -feels creepy like someone is pinching me from the inside. Peed exactly 16 times and bowel movement (TMI I know) 3 times. Drank 120 oz of water , two coffees, 1 decaf. In the afternoon me and hubby popped into starbucks before heading out to pick up friend from airport ... as I was walking into starbucks i felt dizzy.... and sleepy -- he took me straight home.

On his way back he called to ask what to pick up for dinner because i wasn't feeling well. He suggested a few things and I was adamant about eating pasta with lettuce etc. He kept insisting for Chinese etc... full blown shouting match - in the end I got my Il Strada pasta bowl - but - moody.... wow. Like a switch flipped.
I had napped while he was out -- but anyway - I went straight to bed at 830... woke up a few minutes before midnight because I had to pee bad.
Went back to bed watching the stupidest show ever with Tori Spelling on Comcast on demand on my iPad "Mystery Girls" <--

CD 22 : Woke up at 4 am (just 3.5 hrs after my last sleep interruption) to pee again. This time I went to the couch - drank some water ate two pieces of chocolate and was watching the Home shopping network while I fell asleep. Woke up again at 630 to get to work. Not as tired as I would think with the crazy sleep - but I can say. Now it is 8 am have peed another 4 times, only drank 40 oz of water about now - and still on my first coffee.

My boobs are sore just existing they feel weird. No cramps -- just discomfort. Usually just before AF I get not so nice smelling CM that is leaking everywhere (sticky fluid) - and feeling less hungry . Today 2 days away from AF - no running fluids, but I am feeling less hungry - I ate a bowl of special K just cause though - and I did stick my hand up in there and the CM was wet but clear and yes... I sniffed it - odorless.

We shall see how this pans out . Heartburn did I mention that? I am feeling it like right now. I can't wait for my two meetings to be over to go home and "work" from there to start my weekend early... I mean -- I feel like a nap will be mandatory around 1-2pm
