Looking for a buddy - CD1 1st Cycle TTC#1

[Carhar]

I ov'd around cd34 last cycle. I'm hoping to o earlier this month so hopefully we will share the tww. I really struggle in the tww though. I have every symptom, such a drama queen.

Just watched one born every min. OMG, I hope I'm not like the crazy dirty dancing woman or that I don't poo myself like the other woman. Eek, I shouldn't have watched it!!!!

 

[harri]

I know it really scared the he'll out of me too! I don't want to poo myself gotta get pregnant first though lol!
Well it's looking more likely that we will ov at similar times, my temp has shot back up this morning. I'm so conused.
My AF cramps have been full blown though, I've had to take painkillers but still no AF!

I am the worst, I think I even make up new symptoms so you're not alone! xx

 

[Carhar]

I know jumped the gun a bit, lol.

Temp this morning and had a 0.2 increase but still not as high as when I ov'd last time. I'm a bit confused what is going on with the twinges. Probably just symptom spotting.

Are you temping at the same time every day?

I hope your af sorts itself out soon.

X

 

[harri]

That's a good sign then, you're getting closer! I wonder what your twinges are all about, could it be movement of your cervix perhaps?

Yep same time every morning - 7 am on the dot! I have a slight sore throat though which could affect it. Still no AF but still have cramps - getting bored of this now lol!

Xx

 

[Carhar]

Aw I hope you get your af soon. It's so frustrating.

Just updated my ff account and they say I'll ov on on cd25. I really hope it's before then as I'll have another 2 weeks. My temp is a bit higher than last cycle and my cm is changing so fx. Still a negative on the opks, perhaps a slight shade darker???

Any news? X

 

[harri]

That's really encouraging!!!! I think you will Ov earlier! Yay!!

Hmmm... God knows what's going on with me. I still have cramps, I still have no AF after 8 days and now my temp has been up for 2 days BUT had no positives on OPKs
Any advice? Shall I call the doc for advice?

Xx

 

[Carhar]

I would suggest you go to see if your gp can give you something to bring on your af.

They'll probably do a blood test first.

If it's not happened before you really should be checked out.

 

[harri]

My doctors are closed for training today!!!! Arghh!
I'll call tomorrow.
I have lots of watery cm today so I don't think AF is on her way. Maybe I haven't ovulated yet? I'll do an OPK tonight !

How are you feeling today? X

 

[Carhar]

I hope you get some help tomorrow.

No change here, still negative opks. It didn't look darker. It's so frustrating.

How was your opk?

X

 

[harri]

It's the tiniest bit darker but I'll test this afternoon and see.
Hopefully if I'm all geared up thinking it's Ov than AF will turn up to ruin things and then at least I'll get a new cycle.

I hope your opk gets darker so you can get going :-D
I'll let you know what the doc says xx

 

[Carhar]

Fx for you x

 

[harri]

I have a doctors appointment at 3pm and they've asked me to take a sample. I hope this isn't for a pregnancy test as I told her I'm definitely not pregnant!
Hopefully they will test for anything that could affect my chances of conceiving.
I just want to know why I'm getting constant cramps!
I will let you know how I get on later on!

Xx

 

[Carhar]

I hope it goes well. I'm not sure why they'd want a sample. Probably do a test as a matter of course though. They'll probably test your hormone levels. Should be able to tell if you've ov'd.

I hope you get some answers x

 

[harri]

She thinks it's one of 3 things:
Pregnant (she's sent my wee off)
Delayed Ovulation (I think this is the case as my opk is getting slightly darker)
Something else - if I haven't had a period or positive opk / pregnancy test by mon I have to go back in

I'll post my opk in a min, let me know if it's getting darker!

Is your opk getting any darker today? Any other tell tale signs?

My doc says that it takes 2 days for the egg to move down the Fallopian tube and decent sperm can last 7 days so there's more chance of pregnancy than people actually thi k so that's positive!

What do you think? Is O on it's way? My temps are up, possibly ready for a dip? Xx

 

[harri]

Lol they're not that gross in real life, it's a yellowy flash on my iPhone! X

 

[Carhar]

Lol.

It means one of two things either your about to ov or your pregnant. Have you done another hpt? Opks get darker when your pregnant too.

I just dug the last three of mine out and they are getting darker but still quite light though.

How do you put them up? Just taken a picture too x

 

[harri]

I put the pic on photobucket then got the image code and posted it.
Img code looks like this but you change the upper case IMG to lower case.

No I haven't done one since yesterday but I would have thought the opk would be really dark if I was preggo.
Xx

 

[harri]

Oh it's not worked it's a https address. X

 

[Carhar]

No they would be the same as hpt.

Just got the start of ferning on my ov microscope. Hopefully means I'm coming up to ov. The intructions say I'll ov in the next 3-4 days. I'm so excited as that would mean a 30 day cycle (the shortest I've ever had)! I hope it's not a repeat of last month's lh surge.

I'm hopeless and can only post the picture link???
