Mama Bears TTC a rainbow - join us :)-- (69 ladies so far)-(29 BFP's!)

[Button#]

Getting close Charlie! My temps were a bit all over the place when I temped a couple of cycles ago. I'm temping again this cycle and they seem a bit more settled. As long as you can pinpoint O it'll be fine. Temping with a toddler is hard!

 

[o0oCharlieo0o]

Doesnt help that im not sure if my thermometer is the right kind for temping, its just a little digital thermometer doesnt say anything that i can find about BBT :/ but i dont want to go buy one now this cycle as i started with this one and it says to avoid changing thermometers during cycle and iv been waking up a lot in the night recently, and earlier than im meant to lol x

 

[Button#]

I used a normal digital thermometer and it was fine. I'd say night waking and early wake ups will affect it more. The one cycle I did before I could tell which days LO woke up in the night by the temps. I have just bought a BBT thermometer but I only got a cheap one.

 

[o0oCharlieo0o]

Oh great thanks hun, dont know whats up with me recently i never usually wake up in the night maybe its subconscious my baby would have been born last month and its since around that time iv woken up at least twice in the night, or it could be that the weather has been so hot lol, just got a bit of EWCM so getting geared up to ovulate i reckon, but im gutted my OH is working till 1am and then from 7am till tomoro evening so Fridays and Saturdays dont really happen for us in the BD department but it was only a small amount I'll still have time hopefully x

It would be so much easier if we could decide when we wanted to O! My mums staying next week and I'm hoping I O either before she gets here or when she's gone. Knowing my luck it'll be right in the middle of her stay!

 

[o0oCharlieo0o]

Oh no yea that will be awkward right i the middle of your mum staying! Hopefully you ov before or after hun x

 

[Phoeniix]

Hi ladies

I'm waiting for a cycle to try and conceive after a m/c

 

[Button#]

Sorry for your loss Phoenix.

 

[hmmohrma]

Button - I totally know what you mean. My dad has been staying with us all week. That certainly adds another kink in the baby making chain.

 

[Button#]

Parents! Don't they know we're busy trying to make them some grandchildren!

 

[Squig34]

Welcome, Hmmohrma, Kazy and Phoeniix - sorry to hear of all your losses.

Good luck catching the egg, Button and Charlie!

bug - a bit belated now, but sorry AF came.

 

[o0oCharlieo0o]

Well i have two conflicting ovulation tests today :/ took them both with the same urine sample, the lighter one is the ov tests i already had and the darker one is my newer ones, i dont know what one to beleive?! My CM is creamy colour but can be stretched about 4cm so dont know whether to mark it down as creamy or eggwhite? Had the same CM yesterday altho it was more clear yesterday and it stretched it didnt stretch as far as today's, so confused lol x

 

[o0oCharlieo0o]

Forgot to add the pic of ov tests lol

 

[Pixiedust22]

Ov tests are confusing! I can't work out whether mine are positive or not...

 

[Button#]

That's a tricky one, BD just incase.

 

[mommyof2peas]

I would bd just in case. I also temp just to make sure the OPKs are right. They kinda give you a idea of ovulation, but temping (when done right) will tell you exactly when you o. Good luck!

 

[Pixiedust22]

My test lines were ever so slightly lighter than the control line, but then today it's got faint again... do you think I already ovulated?

 

[o0oCharlieo0o]

I would bd just in case. I also temp just to make sure the OPKs are right. They kinda give you a idea of ovulation, but temping (when done right) will tell you exactly when you o. Good luck!

I am temping aswell hun my fertility friend ticker if clicked will take you to my chart, but as its my first month charting iv really no idea whats going on lol x

 

[Kazy]

Finally started AF yesterday! First complete cycle after miscarriage. Never thought I'd be so excited to have a period lol. So here we go again.....

I never could figure out ov tests. I don't do them anymore. Now ask me again in a few months if I haven't conceived and I just might be willing to try again. I think I may temp this month. Not sure if I'll keep it up. I'm trying to minimize stress.

 

[o0oCharlieo0o]

More conflicting tests today, the new cassanovum (wider one) is getting lighter and the proMatris (thinner one) is getting darker, dont know whether to put yesterday's of test as a pos on my chart or not? Getting even more EWCM today and its clear not creamy coloured and stretches a lot more, but my cycle usually about 32-34 days so assumed ovulation wud be in a couple of days :/ but my cycles are never regular so cant say for sure, so by my chart and ov tests would you put yesterday's ov test down as pos on chart? Or leave it blank for now?
