Let's grab that BFP with both hands and make it ours! January Testing Thread

[battyatty]

Morning everyone,

Kfs please let us know how you are!

afm I am so so so tired this morning, I must of drank so much orange juice last night, was so thirsty. I was woken at 4.30 with a need to pee. There was no way I was getting out of my warm bed and so tried to go back to sleep. No luck my bladder just kept nagging, but I was too tired to get up. So the battle of bladder versus sleep raged till 6.30. Bladder won! Grrrr On top of that we had a Chinese last night and I think it has made me feel really icky today, tasted great, but blaughhh I feel icky. Great start to the day. So girls gives us your gossip to distract me, will try to stay awake and not puke up! lol

 

[garfie]

No gossip here - our sisters have still to wake up I think

AFM - As with most people I had a few late nights over Christmas - I have left out some temps but if I include them my chart says I could be anywhere between 3DPO - 7DPO (not much difference then) today.

So I guess I should maybe start POAS (a cheapie) on Friday??

Batty - Your chart is looking good lady what's the excuses again - to much orange juice, a dodgy chinese hmmmmm more like self preservation

That made me laugh!

But honestly..... We had a HUGE chinese take away, then I binged on butter popcorn, chocolate, a few chocy roses found left over, and I drank about a liter of orange juice before bed! Really was so thirsty, but no wonder after all that! lol No wonder I feel icky!

TBH I dont even know why I am on this thread, it would take a miracle for me to be in with any chance, I just like hanging out with you lovely ladies.

Here's a surprise though, you know we are always giving out about our partners, and their lack of fertility understanding, coupled with the ones who are very reluctant. That last includes mine with a defo NO WAY!

Well yesterday evening out of the blue I get a text from my DF "hows my charting going?" I replied with ???? what are you up to, you know I have been charting since mc in Nov just for my records as we aren't trying! His reply was "well how are you, is everything normal?" I said yep. my chart shows I O'd and now waiting for Aunt Flo!" His reply was "Who is Aunt Flo, you never said you had an Aunt Flo!" I nearly fell off the sofa laughing!!!! So I left him wondering! Maybe he might work it out......

Keep hanging out with us! Your chart really does look nice- maybe some of his boys found a way, so to speak.

Batty, your chart is so totally triphasic! It's really looking good, seriously! If it stays that way, I'm gonna have a real hard time not stalking you every single morning, lol!

Oh please dont get my hopes up!

I mean, how can I be... what are the chances at my age, with a half BD 4 days before O????

Anyway triphasic doesn't necessarily mean a BFP.......

But I am more than happy to stay here and cheer all you lovely ladies on....

 

[garfie]

Stalking batty

4 days before deff possible - I have had 2 BFPs this way

Err maybe 4 days before with a proper job, ahem, not a pull out!

As to the icky, yes still have it, coming and going, have sore BBs too, but that was a new bra, that I have now chucked into the back of the cupboard lol
Anymore symptoms you would like to know about lol!!! I can explain all of them away, no problem lol
But thank you

Morning ladies

GL batty it only takes one as they say but I know how u feel about your Chart I've had lovely charts that ADD up to Notta!!!

AFM my temp stayed the same but I slept in a bit yesterday so made DH party last nite after a Nap!!! So FX

to All u ladies!!!

 

[flickyface]

I'm testing on the 8th if I can wait that long

 

[terripeachy]

batty-I like how your bras are in the cupboard. That's hilarious. Your DH goes to get a cup of sugar, and out falls your bra. HA!!HA!! I like visuals. Your chart does look great.

ERose-I bet you're about to O too. The low before the high. Are you still using the OPKs. I think because you took clomid to push your O date back, it could happen any day now without the Clomid. fxfx.

Sis-Way to go on the pantslessness! hee hee. Party time!

Oldermom-Your chart is awesome. I bet this is it for you (again). Seriously.

I'm just a at this point. I decided-FINALLY- to check my thermometer after church, and my temperature was LOWER than my temp this morning. I'm going to put it in front of this foot heater and see what it reads. It'll really make me mad if it's been wrong this whole time. It's just crazy how consistent my temps have been. Not even a high or low jump. Just steady eddy.

 

[Sis4Us]

Welcome Flickyface

Terri it does seem your temps are Topys Turby hope they work themselves out soon!!

I would like to think this is it again, but you know how it is. Probably just another psyche-out (stupid progesterone). I won't know for another couple of days, at the least.
Pretty frustrating about the temps . This is the same thermometer that you used last month? Maybe continue to BD every other day or so? Our bodies are so perplexing sometimes.

flickyface!

Ash&Amber? Kfs1? Where are ya gals?

 

[battyatty]

Try giving the thermometer to your DH to see if it changes from you? Well of course dont if you temp other then orally! lol

BTW have you tried giving your eggs a good talking too! I think this game of hide and seek has gone on a wee bit too long!

AS to the cupboard incident I meant the one in my bedroom, which here in Ireland we call anything that hold anything a Press! But I changed it to cupboard so as not to confuse people, but yet again I have managed it......... Sometimes I wounder at my ditziness! lol

 

[terripeachy]

Batty-what is a Press? That is more confusing than cupboard. I figured you meant closet, or hamper, or something, but thinking about a cupboard in US terms, it made me laugh.

Hi flickyface!! Ooh 3 more days. Sending baby dust your way.

Oldermom-Yeah, I know a good chart doesn't REALLY mean anything at this point, but it's still fun to root others on, and check them out. I'm just happy it looks better than mine!

Sis-Ugh. I'm so over this chart. If my temp wants to just jump up and down a tenth, so be it.

I just put the thermometer next to the heater,and it registered HI, so it's working. I also took my temperature again and it was fine. No problems in the thermometer department. I will gladly wait 10 days for my scrambled lining to shed so I can start all over again. Let's just hope that happens.

 

[Sis4Us]

I'm w U on the scrambled eggs I got another ++++ OPK and still have EWCm

Thought it was the Royal Jelly but I'm guessing the Vitex is Makin me O Correctly

Will Lose my pant again today I guess!!!

 

[terripeachy]

Sis-Yeah, why not?? hee hee. I think you'll get your jump tomorrow based on your other charts, but I know..every chart/month is different. Did you decide to stop taking the Royal jelly or did you stick with it?

 

[kfs1]

Hi ladies,
So, I took another test and the line was much darker so I guess it's looking good! Still no real symptoms, though, but I guess it's still early. I guess I just expected to have all of the typical symptoms ... Just so much different from what I imagined. Anyway, I'm so happy and in shock. I may not contribute much to the boards but I'm always stalking and checking in and I have to say that you ladies are all seriously fantastic. This has been literally the one place that I could turn to when I was feeling depressed, manic, or crazed. Thanks for being so accepting and helpful. Let's get some more BFPs this month!!!

 

[terripeachy]

Oh, kfs1, I am SOOOO happy for you. So what day are you on now, and when are you going to the doctor to check in with him/her? Congrats!!!

Definitely check in on us periodically. As you can see from my crazy chart, I'll be around until February, unfortunately/fortunately.

 

[VJean]

Hi ladies,

I find myself back in this section this month after a brief stay in 1st tri. I took a few weeks to get my head back in order and now it's time to focus on this month.

I've been trying to get caught up on this thread, and you ladies sure know how to lift a girls spirits!

ERose, I'm so sorry for you loss! I hope your body recovers quickly and this is your month!

Batty.....your bra in a cupboard? and your DH's comment was cute. Wonder if he'll figure out who Aunt Flo is?

Terri, your chart is.....interesting? Glad the thermometer is working, but WTH?

Kfs1, congrats! Praying for a sticky bean for you!

Sis, hope all your pantslessness worked!

AFM, I'm not sure what day I'll be able to test, or if I'll even O this month, so can you put me down for the 31st? Right now I'm testing out my HCG. It was 11,500 on the Dec 16, but I finally got a 1-2 weeks on a digi and my wondfos are much lighter. Fingers crossed I O next week and get back in this game! Never thought I'd be praying for a negative!
