We like to be organised. Plus we only had 1 girls name before and a huge list of boys names so luckily she was a girl :rotfl:

I think we have Amelia aswell, and Jasper for a boy.

Im doing my asda shopping. All i have so far is 3 bottles of strawberry ribena, 2 jars of dolmio and some baby wipes... I hate shopping

Dolmio...Buy 1 get 2 free in Morrisons but they don't do delivery.

Snowboarding was fab. Knees are well bruised as it was icy but still had a fantastic time.

As most of you are probably in bed (like I am) I think this will help gee the weekend up....remember just click and no peeking....

Think will be calling this CD1...joy! So..this month I'll do the soy may be days 2-6 and some bog standard vit B.

I take Clomid CD2-6 because the doc said so, but wouldn't it be better for you to take it CD3-7? I tend to spot the day before AF, so CD2 can be thought as CD3:p

I'm taking Vit B complex 50mg. Was taking 100mg, but have reduced it now:o

Didnt think I was :silenced: just mentioning a pain in my stomach & sore b o o b s neither of which I've ever had before.
FF isn't necessarily right with my DPO as I don't have a cycle right now. For all I know I could be 20/30/40DPO.

Must have confused you with someone else sorry:o
When do you plan to test?:)

1 line? Which line? Was it the pee end (LH)? If it was, then peak is near. If it is other way around, it is more like low.

You need to keep an eye on LH line. Darker = near ov.

To reset the machine (copy and pasted from another forum):

1. Ensure it is switched off
2. insert a test stick into the slot
3. press and hold the m button while you complete steps 4,5 &6 below
4. press the on/off button to turn on your montior
5. you will see the ! stick picture --> on the screen. Continue to hold the m button and leave the test stick in place
6.after approx 15 secs all symbols will be shown on screen. the ! stick picture --> will be displayed again. The m button can now be released and the test stick removed.
7.You should see the following symbols on your display screen -- m. Your monitor is now reprogrammed and ready for use .

It'll be a pity to reset it since CBFM has just learned your cycle and your personal hormone levels. It'll most likely ask you to POAS from CD9 next time too.

Have a great time BigSister2008
You seems to have been busy and are covered re BDing, so hopefully Leia or Kayden is on its way (if not both:p).

I don't know!

Tested last saturday morning (there was a reason I just can't remember what it was) but as I don't know what's happening I don't really know when I should be testing!

My temp spiked this morning but it was 1.5hours later than normal

Hi Ladies

How are you? Hope you are all having a good weekend. Have been reading, just not posted in a few days. Nothing to report here, CD31 and no AF. Hmmmm. Cant decide if I have symptoms of AF arriving or not. Keep getting random crampy feelings but then they disappear again. On her way I guess!

hi ladies

im a newbie, but an avid lurker, and have posted on here before.

Me and OH have been TTC for 10months now! i honestly thought it would happen straight away!! so what i am hoping for is can you tell me what u do each month, please!! all i do is count 14 days to find ovulation and check for CM!! *TMI* Do ovulation tests work, the cost put me off a bit, but im strating to think that we obv need more than counting days on a calendar! so please could you post your top tips! i am getting a bit desperate now, especially seen as my best friend is now full term after a drunken night out and i cant even manage it when its planned!! typical!! lol

Sorry for the massive post!

Love Lucy x

Hi Lucy, welcome. Lots of us use fertility friend on-line to keep track of CM, AF and take temps using a Basal Thermometer. This helps pin-point when ovulation has occured and helps you refer for future months. You can buy them in Boots for about £10 or on eBay they tend to go for less than a fiver. The important thing is to buy a Basal one as it is to 2 decimal places.

Some of the luckier ones (me included) have CBFM (Clear Blue Fertility Monitors). These you pee on a stick when it asks and basically it pinpoints when OV happens (the day plus the day before) and also detects LH when it is about to come so does increase the number of days that are "more fertile" than not.

Acromymns are on Page 1 as you will see we use lots!

Main thing is don't give up hope. Our most recent recruit is Dusty who'd been trying for over a year, partner had low sperm count and agility of them and not sure if she had problems too. Anyway, 1 month of CBFM and she's preggers. There was another one a few months ago, MV who was trying for 18m+ (I think) and moving towards the big 4@ mark...preggers now.

I'm pretty much the same as you with 10 month since I came of the pill but probably only been in with a chance for the last 4.

PS - that wasn't a massive post...some of us can really waffle/rant etc etc. That's what this is here for!...stops us boring our other halves!
