I've had spotting al this week so far so i counting it as a period and will start using OPK's on sunday to see if I O this month

Man! She's back with a purpose. After 7 years of no AF this is just ridiculous.. It's like it saved it all up for today. lol I sure didn't miss all of this. I am one step closer to O though and that's all that matters..

Lol, I got hit with my first one yesterday as well. Last might I told DH that I have used more tampons in one day thenI did in 5 YEARS!!!!! This is insane!!!!! My 4yr old send DH running into the bedroom this morning because he thought I was hurt! I had bled all over the bed!

Me too it was a big mess when i would wake up and when i would change my tampon yuck! but it did go away after the second day so hopefully it will get better for u too

So I went to Target and bought a basal thermometer and im going to start charting my temp because i feel like my ticker isnt as accurate as i was hoping. I was also hoping anyone could help me figure out ho to do it. When do i start temping? how do i know when i ovulate once i start? how to read my chart? I would really appreciate all the info i can get since ive only heard of this since i never heard of this before.

Ugh! Me too! I was a royal bitch yesterday! Lol! I am actually starting to fell like I am losing too much blood!! I am weak and just want to sleep. It's like my body is shedding 5yrs worth of backup! Lol! At least I am happier today. Hubby avoided me all day yesterday and last night I asked him if he had a problem and he said he was just trying not to get his head bitten off. That in turn made me start crying! Lol! I also cried while watching my soaps, and back episodes of 16 and Pregnant and The Biggest Loser!

lol megarice, I actually lol'd out loud! Horny smileys!
What on earth is exsanguination???!! Sounds painfull!

ttcbabynmber2 Iv started temping this month, and charted it all on fertility friend. Its been really useful, you input the data and it plots and predicts everything for you! Hope you get on with it!x

exsanguination is the medical term for bleeding to death

Do u have to start on a CD1 or at anytime i am 2dpo i think

 

[lucyoz34]

Thanks mrspop, lets hope not!
how are you and little bump doing?x

 

[lucyoz34]

ttcbabynmber2 you could start any time just to get into the habit of charting. Fertility friend will calculate everything for you. It's handy to input the date of your last period, you'll have a more acurate ovulation prediction then. You'll only really see a benefit when its running from cd1 though, you'll see what your average temp is and then hopefully you'll see the increase around when you O. Mind you you may be lucky with a bfp this month and not need to do it at all!! FX'd!xx

 

[MEGARICE03]

Well, I'm glad everyone enjoyed that.. I mean what else CAN you do with smileys? Well atlas I am alive and AF is still around but packing her bags. May I not see you again for another 9 months!!

 

[lucyoz34]

How amazingly lush would that be!! FX'd.xx

Hi lucy.

Bump and I have had a rough weekend. Some pain and bleeding sent me to EPU. have a gestational sac and a nice high hcg but not out of the woods until had more bloods and a scan

 

[lucyoz34]

This journey is not the easiest hun is it. I'm so sorry to hear its all a bit worrying for you. Things still looking positive for little bump though I guess which is a good thing. Sending lots of love and luck to you and positive thoughts. Be thinking of you, let us know how you are.xx

Uggh it was too soon to celebrate a totally normal cycle last month right off the Mirena. This month is more typical...my period was normal but then a few days later it started again! So I don't know whats up with my cycle at all. I've had three days now of spotting and I'm on CD 12. I usually O around CD 15, but have O'ed around CD 19 in the past too...so we'll see!

No more spot!!! grrrrr

 

[Calasen]

Hey girlys

MrsPop I'm sorry your having a rough time - hope it settles soon and you and bump have a healthy time XXX

Well we started using OPK's today and hopefully soon will have some sign of ovulation - although a week of spotting could have/not been a period - and the OPK this morning had a very faint second line so gonna test every 3 days till it gets darker then as it darkens go to one a day/2days - does that sound good to anyone who uses OPK's?
