    Mine were so slight when I came off the pill they hardly registered as periods. Then after a few months I more than knew. The only was to truly tell when you OV is to look for the symptons....EWCM and temp goes up high (not sure if that's straight after tho).

    Have a go at temping with a basal thermometer and going from then. You can buy them on ebay but basically it measures to 2dp rather than just one. The difference is less than a degree but marginally different than usual temp.

    GFH - Sorry about AF :( But yay for another CBFM buddy. You never know, we might get a wave of CBFM BFPs this month :) Well, some BFPs from any source would be great, so come on girlies - who's going to be first. Don't be shy now :D

    Fanta - Sorry for your troubles. Have a (((hug))). You'll love your cruise. We did our first one a couple of years ago round the med and I loved it. DH got a bit peeved when first I kept disappearing to go play bingo, and then second I nearly killed him on the spin bike - he couldn't walk properly for days :rotfl: I loved the cruise, he wasn't so convinced. Ooops :o

    Golly, I best get to bed. GFH - thanks to the Flyladies I've gpt me a lovely clean sparkly bedroom to sleep in tonight :j

    Hugs and sticky stuff to all xx

    Morning all, just rescuing the thread from the deep, dark, depths of page 2. Not got much to say except its CD4 for me and looking forward to satisfying my POAS craving on Sat with the CBFM!

    I've got the day off work tomorrow so have got the friday feeling today :D


    :wave:Sarah - good luck!

    Hey all,

    This is my 1st month off the pill, think i OV on Monday but having some really funky stomach cramps tonight, really low down, and stitch feeling, anyone else had this on their 1st month??

    I had something similar Rachael. First cycle was 34 days (now settled at 27/28 days) and I had a fair bit of cramping for the 2 weeks before AF came. I have also found that my AF is completely different than the artificial AF I got on the pill. For me AF is now much lighter but I get more cramps. Everyone is different and it might take a few cycles for you to get to know what's normal for you...fingers crossed you get a BFP before you get a chance to find out though ;).

    CD25 for me and spotting/cramps have stopped. Temp still up so not out of the game yet. I'm still convinced this is not our month though so I was badly behaved and bought a CBFM last night while DH was watching the :footie:!

    Hugs all.

    Perhaps we should make a list with who has CBFM, or perhaps those who have it could put it as a sig? Obviously not if you are secretly ttc:p

    Who will be the first CBFM BFP:D

    :jME! ME! ME!:j

    Ok, I'm only on CD4 so maybe not :o

    Hope someone gets a BFP soon, CBFM assisted or not! There has been a definite lull in proceedings :)
  • Yeah, sammy great to see you over there, and they're a fabby bunch, at least when we start nest-building it will be a clean nest!

    Off to put CBFM on my siggy, and to check the first page. CD1 today, switched the flipping thing on for the first time!
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x

    Morning all...yet another CBFM monitor convert..good work oxo!

    Q - c'mon,,,you know you wanna get in on the CBFM action!!! ;)

    I volunteer to be the first CBFM BFP...I know I know..selfless me! :D

    CD18 for me, so 10 days till AF is due. I have to say I have a feeling it's going to be a no for me this month...dunno why, think us girlies just 'know' these things sometimes, but I'm not going to be too down if it is as I think the CBFM is ace and does give you a much clearer idea of when are fertile times etc.

    I know that if I hadn't have used it this month we probably would have started BD'ing later than we did and possibly missed it.

    Now then how do I do a signature? :think::think:
