[Farie]

Wooohoooo GO Rosh!!!!! See ... told you your O would come!!!!
Bring on the DH!

 

[rachelle1975]

Right well i got him early and i still have time to watch Britain's Next Top model and have an early night... priorities right or what?!!!

Got a positive OPK on the ebay cheapies! hurrah!! my wee smelt like hot dog salt water... nice.

So, BD and i layed with my legs in the air for 50 mins... bonus or what! whilst doing that DH just sold my car!!

I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo H-A-P-P-Y!!

 

[Lu28]

Sounds like you're having a good day Rosh! Glad you finally got your positive opk, I guess youre ovulation days just arent as regular as they used to be....

Go get DH again in the morning!!

 

[tiggertea]

woooo go go go Rosh!

 

[rachelle1975]

I am so chuffed - so i figure EWCM today and i got a positive OPK so prob ovulation today or tomorrow do you think?

DH is studying after work so won't be back til 7 so i figure AM is our best bet. last month we missed the day before and on the day of my positive OPK didn't do it until that evening.

9 days left of this cycle so it had better hurry up and work it's sticky magic!!

 

[Farie]

Rosh - so lovely to hear you sounding happier and more positive .. and well you should be! at getting BD in early and getting your bum in the air for 50 mins! I really am so pleased for you that you got a + opk too. jump him again in the morning and the eggy will be spoilt for choice as to which to choose from!

Lu - how you feeling sweetie? Still queasy?

As for me .... come on O ... I'm ready and waiting for ya!

 

[rachelle1975]

Guys i know i'm a bit of a dick sometimes.. but....
normally do the OPk in the morning so i presume that it will happen the following day or thereabouts. Since i got a positive at 7pm - and i'm having mild cramps now?? when do you think i will ovulate? i'm guessing those cheap sticks detect the surge early as well?

 

[Lu28]

Sorry hon, I'm not great with opks so no point in me advising - I've never had a positive opk in my life!

I was feeling better, then I had my dinner and feeling queasy again Had a weird low temp when I was up at all hours of the morning today. My post ov temps have been around 36.87 and after being awake for an hour and going downstairs to get my milk I decided to experiment and it was 36.65. Seemed a bit weird seeing as it's meant to be higher after after moving around, not lower. Woke again later at 7am and it was 36.87 which is what I'd have expected. And now Elm has me thinking it was my implantation dip so I'm all obsessive again! Did have mild cramps going to sleep last night so who knows. Maybe I'll have a proper rise tomorrow morning and I might start symptom spotting properly!

 

[rachelle1975]

Ooooh Lu how cool would that be eh? you are only a bit ahead of me and i would be so awesome if we were all able to catch up! i feel like i'm watching people come and go a bit at the moment!!

Fingers and toes crossed but not legs... that would NEVER get us anywhere!

 

[Lu28]

Yep us girls have to keep our legs firmly open! I'm sure I'm getting all enthusiastic over nothing but it's nice to have something to concentrate on during the 2ww!

 

[Farie]

Rosh - if you got you + in the evening and had some cramps I'd say you were Oing today at some point, prob later on?

Lu fingers crossed for you honey, I so so hope this is your month

 

[Lu28]

Thanks Farie Temp rose a bit again today so you never know! Having said that, my temp is now near where I was at the end of my last cycle so I'd like to see it rise a bit more over the next few days, not that I have any control over these things!

 

[Loula]

Rosh honey, can I just point something out? If you are only oving now, then your LP will be shorter than 10 days have I got that correct? Do you know that an LP of less than 10 will not normally be enough time for an eggy to implant?

I feel a cow saying this because you are all PMA'ed up etc but I don't want you to have the fall

 

[rachelle1975]

Hey lovely ladies of the cycle....!
Well i got a positive OPk this morning and still have EWCM however this evening it had started to fade so reckon ovulation was today.

Don't worry Loula - i just worked it out and figured if today was ovulation and AF was due 9th then that will only be 8DPO. What a tit. I really thought i would make it this month and that it was okay to ovulate this late.

Good luck ladies x

 

[Farie]

Rosh Glad you pinpointed O! You may find that as it's come late AF may be late ... making your LP longer than 8/9 days - which would be fine.
OK, not ideal but there are plenty of peeps who get with only a 9/10 day LP. Don't totally give up hope

Certainly with me if I O late AF gets delayed a little too.

Loula .. how you doing chick?

Thanks Farie - I've recorded my temps/OPKs the last 4 months.
Month 1 - + OPK at CD14 (27 day cycle)
Month 2 - nothing registered on OPK and i tested from CD11-20 - AF came as usual 27 day cycle)
Month 3 - + OPK at CD14 27 day cycle)
This month - + OPK at CD 18.

Just feel a bit crappy at the moment and all over the place, plus very tired which doesn't make good for my emotional wellbeing! Just spent an hour scouring websites looking for people that got + HPT at 8DPO in the hope it gave me hope... oh dear.

I know i'm not the only person struggling to TTC but feel sh*te today. Was so happy yesterday. I think i need an early night

 

[Lu28]

Hey Rosh, try not to feel too disheartened, it looks as though you have a pretty steady 13 day LP so I'd guess AF may well be about 5 days late for you this cycle. Definitely think it's more likely that you'll have a longer amount of time between AF and ov rather than ov and AF, that's the bit that usually stays steady

I'm not feeling queasy anymore thank god. Bbs are tender again which I used to get during 2ww but didn't last month and I put that down to the B6. I'm on more B6 this month and my bbs are sore so who knows! Have quite a bit of creamy cm tonight as well but I've had that in the past in the 2ww so no definite pg symptoms yet!!

 

[rachelle1975]

Hey Lu - sounds promising! When do you think you will test?

For some reason i feel totally wiped out this cycle - i've felt nauseuous, tired and can't get rid of my sore throat. Temps took a dip this morning and i feel so exhausted - roll on AF as i'd like this horrid cycle out the way please!

Same as what she said sweetie

 

[Lu28]

My temp took a huge dip last night, took it an hour early because I just woke up naturally. I had hoped it might be implantation but it looks so similar to my AF dip last month so I"m not sure. According to FF I'm 9dpo which should be too early for AF to show her nasty little face but if FF is wrong and I actually oved on the day of my second peak, I'd be 10dpo so I'm not sure. LP used to be 10 days, after 50mg of B6 last month it increased to either 11 or 12 days depending on whether I oved on the day of the second peak or the day after. I'm on 100mg B6 this month so thought that should increase it again but if it really is AF then I'd be back to square one with my LP. Have no usual AF symptoms like spots on my chin but I do have mild cramping in my tum and back but I guess that could be due to me worrying! Posted a q on TTC forum and the general consensus is it's AF. I'll be gutted if it is, had high hopes for this cycle

How are you guys doing?
