bernina - glad things went well with the fertility specialist, at least you have a plan now

Kitty_girl - your cycle probably hasn't got back to any kind of normality yet, how long since you had the implant out? i was on bcp which i stopped in august and ever since my cycles have been longer than before - they were always 28 days, but now are 34 or more. which means i've only had 3 full cycles in 4 months of ttc - grr!

as for me, i'm starting to think maybe i'm wasting my time temping - i've only got a couple of proper dots and the rest are all empty circles, i assume because they make no sense! this mornings i expected to be wrong as i was awake on and off from about 3am, but didn't temp until 5.20, just before i got up. should i have taken it when i first woke up, or would that have been all wrong too because it was too early? i would normally take it about 6.30 when i usually get up, but i had to work early today so couldn't. i'm so confused

probably won't be able to get on tomorrow, so happy new year everyone - here's hoping for a ton of 2010 bfp's xxx

Hi Shambaby,

I had my implant out on 30th nov so yes my body is prob all messed up, i have had some friends get pg straight after implanon out before an af and some it has taken a while so i guess its pot luck. Im just gonna have to wait and see.

So annoying though!

My FF VIP package ran out today!! Went on to look at chart and it only lets you add the basics. A week ago I wouldn't have cared but had a total panic this morning lol. Anyway, have bought the vip package for 1 month -it's only 6 quid right? Cheaper than a HPT! LOL

LOL - hopefully you will only need the one month! I have so far resisted, DH refused to pay for it (I've been unable to work/study since oct last year due to endo pain).

Stupidly I tested this morning, too early to test so only used an IC, how stupid though!!! Happily my temp has increased again today, hoping this is a good sign since last month it dropped.

Bernina - glad the FS has a plan, good that it's through the vagina and not a laparoscopy or anything silly like that. And you can start again quite quickly. Who knows maybe the 14days of the Pill will send your hormones through the roof? I have heard that some women get preggers quickly after coming off the pill. That's nuts about the multivits, my doc told me just to take ordinary vits rather than prenatals as they have the required vits without the stupid price tag! It is so good that your blood tests came back clear, hopefully the op and clomid will have you preggers in no time!

Hope everyone is well x

Well that sounds really positive news!! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you hun! My temp went up again today. This waiting malarky is a pain in the butt!! Was wondering if I should do an early test in the morning on an IC. Based on last months cycle not due until 5th - maybe a bit early...

 

[fifi-folle]

Oooh my temp is higher than it has ever been before (in the 2 months of charting). Getting hopes up! Someone stop me please!!!!

OOHHHHH Test, test!! I tested today but it was BFN. I'm only 7 dpo that's too soon isn't it? lol

TEST

 

[Fish&Chips]

I got a negative on dpo 9 and 10. I then got a very very faint BFP at 11dpo. I would say it's too early but both of your charts are looking really promising!! xx

Congratulations!! Hope I get one too! I don't even know how my chart should look so no idea if promising or not lol

Just noticed on 13th January the box on my chart is highlighted white with a grey line round it. What does that mean? Is that when they think I should test?

 

[fifi-folle]

I tested yesterday and got BFN, going to try an hold off until 6th (not much chance of that though), will probably test again in a day or two. Tempted to go out and buy a couple of superdrug tests since they seem to get a good response. My cycles have been varying lengths since I finished my course of Zoladex injections (false menopause injections, treatment for Endometriosis, but didn't work on me), they have been 29, 30, 31, 32(chemical), normal before the injections and ops and stuff was 30 days, not been on the Pill in years after the side effects I had.

Minime - 7dpo is WAY too early for most!
Fishnchips - thank you for giving me hope!

Hehe, I thought it may be but just tested in case.
The Superdrug tests are good and I prefer them to FR. They always seem to have offers on them too! x

Stalking your charts to try to understand my own. CD 45. BFN yesterday. Many symptoms (have been preggo before). Frustrated. Had a couple spots of blood few days ago at 11:30 pm the next morning.. My temp went down. No sign of AF. I have not even been dry since my period. I am getting a blood test monday, so if I am not I can talk to my ND on tuesday. HPT are frustrating!

Hi Hun, it's good that your AF hasn't arrived!! Why not test again tomorrow? Had a look at your chart but to be honest, I've only started charting myself so not the best at reading them and have had the girls tortured asking them to look at mine lol.

How long are your cycles normally?

For the past 2 years they have been every 30 days. I am thinking about testing tomorrow. I still think it will be negative. My hubby says to just get a blood test lol. Do you get a dip in temp when there is implantation? Charting has been difficult for me lol. I would be excited that AF hadnt arrived if I knew I was preggo. My breasts the past few days have had very bad pain.

Hi Charting Ladies!! Does it make any sense to bother with charting if I were to move foward with an IVF cycle. We are having our first consult on the 12th and was curious if anyone has/does chart while doing IVF or IUI. Does it have any value-add?

I think you do get a dip as I had one a few days ago and asked about it. Ithought your temp was supposed to stay high and was told it can dip although mine was probs too early to be an implantation dip - bummer lol.

I got a white box in my chart over 13th Jan and when checked it said this should be my test date!!That's ages away!! I tested this morning at 7dpo which is stupidly early and of course it was BFN! Don't understand why the 13th as my AF should be due on 5th based on last months cycle! Charting is good but hard to know at first what everything means!

Fingers crossed for your BFP!!

I think it is supposed to stay high, but I just started temping so who knows. Mine could be different cause my fibro.

I would test around your period. If you get urges just buy some internet cheapies not from earlypregnancytest.com. They gave me a false positive a few weeks ago. Or maybe it was a real positive lol. I have been testing since 10dpo. Maybe I should invest in HPT stock lol. Thanks...after reading this site. I am pretty sure I am. I remember my pregnancy with my son. Kinda feels the same..

Well that's good news! I have no clue as this is my first but had a chemical in May this year and a mmc at 12 weeks in August but not many symptoms to speak off so can't comment on how but a lot of girls say they know from how the felt in previous pregnancies!

I bought a pack of 25 ICs from Amazon so just using those and they worked great as used them when pregnant before and tested every day lol

 

[shaerichelle]

just in case I am not.. what kind are they?
