Hiya yes mostly for example if you normally wake about 7am but one morning you wake at 6am then take it when you wake at 6amand use a temp ajuster ap - i'll find the link to the one i use. If you wake up at 5am i'd take temp anyway as can use ajuster but if you go back to sleep and wake again at 7am use the 7am temp. however if you have just drifted back in and out of sleep the earlier temp ajusted will be the more accurate one! Gosh hope that helps lol! x

Barb, I am so excited for you! Congrats!

Hey all sorry I haven't been on. Been really busy! Trying to keep busy too. Really sad that I wont be able to test on my b-day because I haven't even ovulated yet. Good chance I'll be ovulating on my b-day though. However I don't hold high hopes this cycle. My friend seems to be a bit of a psychic and she does not see a baby for me this cycle. She's been right with the last two pregnancies (first one I never asked her and we were just becoming friends).

Anyway going to try not to think about it too much. This Friday is my b-day and Claire's 9 month photo shoot. And then we plan on taking her to the zoo if the weather is decent. Then next Friday on the 9th is her 9 month check up.

I went back into my workouts finally. Not the same ones, but started up yesterday. Hopefully I'll stay true to them again. Been hoping to go for walks in the evening but the darn weather is not being nice. Cool and rainy.

Anyway I hope you all are doing wonderful.

Thanks barbs. Sadly I don't drink so my b-day's are usually just another day XD Oh well. Today I'm doing better again. Woot. Picks up some OPK's. Neg yesterday. Trying to figure out why my temp went down even lower. Pre O I go anywhere between 96.8 to 97.2 but past couple days it's 96.71. But I'm still a few days from ovulating I think. I sadly now normally ovulate around 24-28 days so far. blah. -_- Before Claire use to be 18-22. I'm day 22 of my cycle. So by the looks of things I'll either ovulate on my b-day or a few days after. I hate how it is 3 plus weeks for me to even freakin ovulate now. I know for some ladies that are done having babies this would be a god send I'm sure. Oh a period only every month and a half? Blah. I just want my old normal cycle back before Claire. 28-33 days. (Now I'm 34-42 days). And sorry for being a neg. nancy lately. Not able to whine to DH because it's getting on his nerves. However besides all of that I am doing fine. Just waiting on the weather to finally get dry and warmer to do more outside. I think that is what I need. To be able to go outside and do what I enjoy doing (walks, gardening)

How are you ladies doing?

 

[nimbec]

hi butterfly wolf i feel your frustration i'm only oving mid to late 20's too and thats with meds lol!! Its so annoying!!!!!!! Have you looked at using vitex? or macca they are both ment to help! (((((hugs))))) oh and maybe your drop is a pre o drop i sometimes get those.

hi everyone else !!

 

[barbikins]

Your body will take time to adjust after a baby & things will be different. My periods changed. My ovulation, I'm not sure of but my periods & my flow & my PMS. It's a big hormonal shift. I'm glad you're ovulating though. And you did get pregnant so it's more likely to happen again. Just be patient & persistent xo

Hiya girls....

Cd2 here....got well and truley dumped into the pond of af doom in the middle of the night.geeeeeeeeees the cramping sucked! I tried to sleep it off but you know that feeling where the pain is background at all times and everything centres back to it.ugh I only ever wanna feel like that again if I am actually giving birth.at least something will come it at the end of the pain lol

But welcome aboard witchy witch.i am fully loaded lol...pee sticks at the ready here! Lol

How are everyone?

Today I am sofa surfing with a few get ups to go's and be "house wife"

So who's got scans and treatments coming up .?...I am lost tee hee.

On another note....we received our apt request letter on Thursday (for fertility clinic) ...we decided to wait for peter to come home on Friday to make the call together...however he was later home than we originally planned so we can't make the apt till Tuesday now as it's a another bank holiday on Monday....so Tuesday it is.

Hope all is well my ladies....take good care this fine weekend.

Oh wowzers Bex.....you have something going on there huh.
Maybe an late o perhaps then....
Have you thought about perhaps bringing this up with a gp?
Maybe they can just double check your bloods or somthing?

Ahhhhh hope you. Have a great time away love....Denmark is a fantastic place....is it hot there right now? I hopes so.
Enjoy .

Hope it is o day for you....catch that eggy Bex...woop woop.

Barb I just saw your betas. Dang girl!

Natalie, sorry AF got you. Even crappier that you feel miserable, so sorry. Hope CD3 is kinder to you.

That's weird Bex! What CD are you? Sorry if it's been said. I have a memory like a sieve these days.

Hope everyone is doing okay.

 

[wannabemummyb]

I'm cd38. I thought i ovulated 18 days ago.....had ewcm and ov pains

Hows everything going with you? Can't believe your over 12 weeks now!

Nat we are enjoying denmark so far......dh is over here to work so today he is working and im going for a wander

 

[eyemom]

That's weird, I hate confusing cycles!

Things here are okay. I can't believe I'm 13 weeks tomorrow! Do you count that as second tri, or is that 14 weeks? Crazy! Been having crap sleep and some stubborn headaches, but otherwise good.

Did you get to have some fun while your DH was working?

 

[barbikins]

Hey Erin, yeah my beta's been good. Yesterday (last one) was over 5K...but I forgot how much to be exact LOL
It was too much going on in my head & bracing for the news.

Wow, you're in your 2nd trimester now?

 

[butterflywolf]

I say 13 weeks is 2nd tri. Eek so excited for you *^^*

Barbs, that is awesome! Great numbers! Can't wait for you to get out of the first trimester either!


Not much going on over here. Still waiting to freakin ovulate. Day 27 today and no sign of a temp increase. I had a few OPK's and I used them starting at Day 21 but all where neg and I have no more left (took me to day 25). Trying not to get myself too frustrated but it's quite annoying.

 

[barbikins]

Because of a chemical pregnancy it may take another cycle to bounce back.
You may wanna see an RE to do some cycle monitoring?

I've ovulated on day 28 once before so hoping that's the case. But yea like you said could take a bit for my body to bounce back. Grr. And I'm not too concerned about seeing anyone just yet unless I got like two months without a period, but my OBGYN is not concerned at all at this point. And my relationship with him, I would trust him.

I think what the biggest thing that is annoying me is I'm sick of having sex XD First of all neither DH or I have a very high active sex life when we aren't trying. We'd be lucky to have sex once a week even before ttc the first time. And it isn't like we don't enjoy sex but I just don't need it that often nor does he. It was nice only having to go from day 16 to day 23 with DTD but now it's from day 16 until ??? We do it every other day or try to do it every other day but I'm sick of sex! Gah -_-

 

[barbikins]

LOL you can just have sex every other day - not daily.
It's not necessary! It takes a few days for the spermies to get up to the egg so yeah, every other day is MORE than enough. But I hear ya. We had a great sex life until we TTC....then it became a job & often times I was like 'ugh, really....again?' LOL
It's better when it's not a 'job'.

 

[eyemom]

YES! I'm so excited to be able to have sex just because we want to. No regard for timing, what kind of lube, what position, how long I have to stay on my back after, etc etc.

It took my DH and me forever to decide to do every other day, and it is SO much less pressure. Much nicer. Then ya know if you're feeling it two days in a row, go at it. But if not, it's okay!

 

[barbikins]

Erin, great pregnancy blog!
