lotiony CM, laus - awesome! (but seriously, i had to say it because how many times in a woman's life are you going to hear that phrase - and i really really hope it's a good sign!)

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

Jdub-have a great weekend with family....i have a vinyl sticker on my living room wall that reads..."Family is Forever" Enjoy that little nephew! And good luck on getting your bd in too! Have a great anniversary!

Laus-Since you've never noticed that before, I hope it's a great sign for you..al these new things, may mean great things! Can't wait to hear your result on the 8th!

Yes, Sniz...where are you, how'd the appt go?

Hi! Just went climbing with my man. Lots of fun! But wanted to pop over and say thanks again to everyone for the support and laughs and acceptance. It's super to have a place to turn to and you all keep me sane, literally. Virtual hugs.

Agreed.

Hey temping experts, I have a question. So, I temped a half hour late this morning b/c when my alarm went off, I just turned it off...oops... Anyways, my temp was only 97.6, and I read somewhere you're supposed to take a 10th of a degree off for every half hour you're past your normal temping time, making it really 97.5. WTH?! Yesterday, my temp was 97.73. That just doesn't make any sense! Is it possable that since we turned the air conditioning on last night, that could make a difference in my temp by that much? Man this is frustrating. Sorry I've been so needy lately guys.

 

[HWPG]

Hi bray - you are not needy! We all love to help if we can. So, IMO, it could be variation or normal 'fallback rise'. If you look at my chart, I dipped by 0.3 day after my first temp rise. FF still has crosshairs for me the day before, and after the fall my temp went up again. Keep in mind it's a trend you are looking for, not specific numbers on a specific day. (this is the part where we all say 'now I have to wait another stupid 24 hours for the next temp, gr!') if you didn't yesterday, bd today just in case. And see what tomorrow brings!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

Hw-glad you had a good time climbing with your other half. It's always nice to have the time...believe me, me and my hubs don't get out much...his work shecdule and 2nd shift sucks most of the time, but it's good money. And keeps me home with the girls so I don't have to work. If I did work, it'd be pointless really, 2 extra days he works, would add up to 2 weeks worth that I would work.

Bray-Like I told Hw, I'm not an expert or advanced in btt...i've only been doing for maybe 4 months and have noticed how my body works and what my charts look like. So, I would say yes it is possible the a/c made it go down a little. The room temp and weather can alter it. Also, temping is not an accurate way to differ from normal and pregnancy. It's just really hard to compare without knowing your pre-ovulation temperatures. Hopefully tomorrow we can provide some more answers. Sorry, I'm not much of help. Keep bding every other day just in case and keep opking isall I can say until you see that thermal shift.

 

[HWPG]

Off to camp for the wkd. Don't miss me too much can't wait to catch up on Monday evening! Fx for everyone until then!!!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

Have fun camping, hw...enjoy youorself! When you come back, the next morning will be test time!

I just thought I should share with everone that I REALLLLLY feel this is my cycle. I know I've felt like I was gonna get my bfp on a previous cycle, but this cycle even more. I really hope my intuition is right. I just can't wait until Tuesday morning. Even though at 9dpo is still a little early...but I've found out before at the time I was preggo and my luteal phase has been shorter. So, FX!! Hope everyone is enjoying their labor day weekend.

 

[Jdub1698]

Most silent BD ever! It's harder to fit these important days in while with our family than I thought it was going to be! Day 2, success though!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

God job jdub.

Now I don't have my hopes up anymore. Stupid stupid bbt charting! From the last 2 months, I had a feeling my temp would dip today just like those other cycles..sure enugh, it goes down some today. Damnit! It better go back or i'm not testing at all. I was sure things were feeling different this time. FML!!! (**** my life)

 

[Brayr08]

Oh mama! So, according to your chart, do you normally stay down then? When is AF supposed to start?

My temp went from 97.5 to 97.58, so I guess that's good, right? lol I know this is my first real cycle temping, so it's difficult to say if this is normal for me or not. I will say though DH and I have had a lot more fun w/TTC this month.

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

It's just all wacky, my temping....every month, it's hard to tell i guess. I read somewhere even the wackiest chart can get a bfp, that's why temping isn't an accurate way to predict pregnancy...only if your temp stays above coverline for 18 days. It's still above coverline so that is what matters i guess. I shouldn't feel out yet, there's still a chance until I get my af. If my af was anything like the last 2 months, i would be due thursday or friday. Thanks Bray and as long as yourtemp keeps going back up, it's good. I am really hoping you get your bfp this time.

 

[laustiredttc]

hey girls just got back from the christening, shi*, more on that in a bit.

bray i'm terrible with the whole twmping thing, but yeah as long as it stays above coverline and keeps creeping up its all good news

hw hope you enjoy your camping trip

mama, i know how you feel huni, one day i'm like oooh i just feel different this month then the next, oh its not going to happen, just wish we could know earlier. Im rooting for you though huni and i have a good feeling for you this month.

jdub, glad your enjoying family time and your new nephew.

ok so went to the christening, and i am not joking when i say this girls but i got a frosty reception from my brothers wife. Not a thankyou for making the journey, not even a thankyou for coming. I am really pissed at her for being the way she was as i didnt warrant they way she was with me? Oh well at least i dont have to see her for a while now!! and at least i made the effort!

Some more tiny bits of lotiony cm today but thats it really nothing else. I'm 4dpo, just wish dday was here already!!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

aww laus, how selfish,rude and ignorant to not even say thank you...really? I knew you shouldnt have went. I know she wont come to yours, i bet whenever its your turn, she will come up with some sort of excuse. I am soo sorry. Like you said, at least you don't have to see her for awhile and hopefully by then you'll be preggo!

 

[laustiredttc]

thanks mama. I feel i can hold my head up high though and know that i have done the right thing by going and making the effort. Like you said she probably won't have the decency to do the same thing. It's such a shame though because before all this baby business started we used to get along quite well, i'm not sure what changed along the way, and i know i have'nt done anything at all to upset her? Oh well somethings i guess just can't be figured out!!

How is everyone getting on ladies?

I am 5dpo and have nothing at all to report, feeling like this is going to be another month for me I guess time will tell!!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

I am 8dpo today....only thing i been noticing are some twinging.crampiness feeling sometimes in my abdomen/uterus or whatever. My temp took a good jump back up this morning but might me because i took the a/c out of my bedroom not yesterday but the day before and not lastnight but the morning i got my dip the a/c was out, but fan on low...and lastnight went to bed without fan on and had to get up at 330 to turn it on low because i was soooo hot. Tomorrow morning if my temp is still up nicely, i will be testing and i cannot wait but very nervous and scared at the same time. EEK!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

Laus-you're such a nice person with a heart of gold. You did a wonderful job going and attending, you did do your part and now leave it at that. Focus on you now and remember, not all women have any symptoms...so you just never know until af comes not. Really hoping for you though, you know that!

 

[Brayr08]

laus-YOU'RE ONLY 5DPO!!! Isn't the earliest the egg can even implant 5DPO? I am doing really really good this month with ignoring my body (which is really shocking bc I'm a MAJOR symptom spotter) b/c I know it's way to early for anything to be a symptom and I really don't want to get my hopes up over nothing. We all know how much that sucks! I'm sure here in a couple of days though, I'm going to start noticing EVERYTHING. So, don't feel out yet. I'm really praying that you get your so you don't have to start going through a FS. I don't wish any of that on anyone.

Mama-I'm happy to hear that your temp jumped back up. I'm REALLY hoping you get some good news tomorrow and if not tomorrow, then in the next couple of days.

AFM-Nothing to report. My temp is all over the place so, I'm really not even paying attention to it. I'm still recording, but that's basically just in case I need it for future use. Which hopfully, this is the last month for all of us.

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

Thanks Bray! I hope this is the last time for us all too....*praying* Sorry your temp is all wacky...maybe you didn't ovulate then yet, you must've had the surge like i told you, but didn't ovulate and will later. Glad you're having fund bding this month!
