  • Hi everyone, hope everyone is having a good weekend. We went out both Fri and Sat nite and are obviously getting too old for it as we are not fit for much now today!! :o

    Well I am on CD 19 and I am not convinced that I have ovulated yet. My cycle last month was 31 days so my monthly cycles reckons I would have ovulated yesterday. But as I recently came off the pill my cycle is prob not sorted itself out yet. We BD this morning and a couple of mornings ago just incase, but I havent seen much CM and last month I had a glob (someone else called it this and it describes it so well :D ). So I'll see if I see any changes in CM and cervix over next couple of days.

    Ruth - when did you get a positive on your OPK? You probably already know this, but in theory, af should appear 14 days after you ov (assuming your luteal phase is 14 days).

    Hi Annie,

    According to Fertility Friend and the OPK test, I got a opk+ on the 16 day of my cycle, but with the way my temp going up now and the whole mucus thing, it feels like I only ov last week. Still no AF so waiting until till next weekend and if no AF arrives by then will test again then.

    Hope everyone is having a good weekend, my little magpie has been collecting shiny baubles and tinsel and hiding it everywhere.icon7.gif

    Never mind vickyjayne, I keep thinking a baby born in Sept/Oct would be nice but really I will take whatever I can get!

    How's it going Djdymond? When is your first scan?

    morning ladies!

    well so far, i just feel normal. no metallic taste, the odd bowt of tiredness but no morning sickness its almost like im not pregnant! and as such, i still dont feel like i am and try not to think about it too much, im worried ill jinx it or something!

    ive seen the doctor, midwife will write to me regarding the scan. should be in around 5 weeks time

    and yeah (hopefully) i should have a little one for next christmas. and thats really weird!

  • Morning all, weekend was good, we even bd'd on Sat night, which was a shock, but my messed up AF stopped for a day, so we took advantage. Well it is meant to be fun isn't it?
    I am hoping this month is the one, my OH is getting really excited and i am more horny than i have ever been! Watch out hubby this is going to be a hard working month ;)

    i think i'm coming on today....not best pleased....was definitely harbouring a secret hope that we might have cracked it this month...
    :(
  • What a bummer . . . . . Normally have AF like clockwork, so worked out the OV date (11th) and DH got into the BDing every day (at least;) ) from 7th - 12th. No sign of EWCM until yesterday the 14th, so I reckon cycle's a bit squiffy this month and we may have timed it all wrong. Tried to explain to DH last night but now he reckons I'm just putting pressure on him to perform! oh well, I guess there is still a slim chance (and it's our anniversary today, so maybe some late but lucky BD tonight! or just some fun!!!:o )

    I think CM is more indicative than just calculating the date so I would be inclined to follow that.
    Also tried opk this month for first time which actually worked I think. Do you temp at all?

    Seeing as I didn't OV last month (v.annoying) I am cautious this month (panicing that wouldn't ever OV again and that ERPC/D&C had broken my bits....crazy mind rantings!) but have had a temp shift although wasn't as defined as it was the last cycle I had one, but seems to have happened and matches the CM and opk results so fingers crossed and now in 2ww aaaahhhh!

    If still ttc next month I think we'll just try the BD evry other day the whole way through, or near the OV time as DH doesn't fair well with the pressure and have read in so many places about the whole re-stocking process and that 48 hrs is optimum for the swimmers to be good :D

    Not temping yet . . . . thanks for this .. . . I reckon the CM is normally best to go by too, but as normally such a regular cycle dates and CM match . . . . typically the month DH puts most effort in . .. . . they don't. Given DHs previous self esteem issues (if you remember he's been dieting for months as he is "fat and ugly") this at least was a positive months for tryins. And as I said might just try tonight as still have EWCM and it is anniversary so could be Fun as well as functional;)

    Afternoon! Well AF due tomorrow. I'm having the usual feelings.. boiling hot during the night for the past few nights, sore boobies and slight cramping so looks like AF is going to arrive. Nevermind! Still we only BDed once at the vital time. Hopefully we'll be a bit more active next month.:o
