(((Hugs))) for headaches:(
How light is your AF?
I would normally change at least every hour on morning of day 2, feel fat bloated and horrid, severe cramps and really heavy, day 3 (tmi alert) I'd get severe pains and cramps, would then pass large clots, would then start to feel better.
Day 1 was just "brown" but didn't need tampons like would normally,no 4am change! Day 2, yesterday used tampons and again today, again no night changing, I've had no urgency to change and haven't needed to IYKWIM. Feel ok (except headaches!), nothing like normally do. Had no clots. I'm sure its AF...:heart2:Baby boy madbird arrived 15/06/11 by emergency csection weighing 9lb 13oz:eek: love him so much xx:heart2:0 -
Hello all,
Welcome Lucy and Vikki, hope your stay is short x
If you haven't, don't reset - I didn't get my peaks until CD 23 and 24, if I'd given up I wouldn't have known OV'd so late, ok so I'm using 20 sticks a month but am happy to if get the right result!! Also if I had paid attention and been patient CBFM started showing the "m" on my CD2 - I'd forgotten to look at day before so it knew when AF was due. I'm not testing this month til CBFM shows the "m"!!!
So I'm on CD3, normally would have spent last day and half suffering with cramps and AF really heavy...but its been quite light for me. Will just have to see what this month brings.
Will need to see the doc asap tho, I've been diagnosed with cluster headaches, had to see out of hours GP at hospital as was really bad again yesterday. I'm having to have strong painkillers and anti-inflammatory tabs, obviously not good when TTC.:( Will have to see if she can recommend any safer alternatives, but when paracetamol or ibuprofen are no use when have a bout its going to be difficult. But at least have a diagnosis now re headaches.
Hope you've all had a good weekend so far. xx
Hello!:D
Well i havent reset my CBFM but am utterly confused, im on CD20 and was asked to POAS again and CBFM said high BUT there is NO LH line!!! :eek:Maybe i have a faulty one? I had 2 lines around day 16 i think but have never had above a high!:eek: I agree with you with regards to the using 20 sticks if its correct but mine doesnt seem to be?:(
To top my mood, ive been at work for 24 hours and got zilch in the way of sleep:(, so am very tired and discovered AF is due while on holiday!:mad: Needless to say im lacking a little PMA today ladies lol:o
Hope ur all well and enjoying whhats left of the weekend, im workin 2morrow but then off for ages yay!!!!:T
Take care all, hope to see some BFPs soon!
Will check back soon, SBDTA xxxx:ANorthern bird on the loose!

Once CBFM says High, it'll only read LH line to see if it goes dark enough for Peak. Hopefully CBFM learnt your LH darkness, and work OK next cycle:o0 -
I'd say you ov'd sometime around CD16-18.

Thanks for that, i really hope so, i thought the CBFM would help me get a BFP a lot quicker but seems it takes some getting used to 1st!:oNorthern bird on the loose!

*delurking* I got mine on the third cycle of CBFM, despite moaning like mad that I wouldn't.

CD17. HIGH. It's been high since CD13. I'm not optimistic this month - I've been drinking loads, after a long spell of abstinence. Must do better.
I expect to see a PEAK by CD20ish, I'm planning to use progesterone cream 2-3 days later until the end of the cycle. Worth a shot, nothing else is working.
At least I have an appointment with the fertility specialist lined up for end September. I wonder if she'll remember me from the last time..?
Anyway - lots of luck and SBDTA.0 -

*delurking* madbird I'm following your posts with great intrigue. They are exactly like mine a few weeks ago. I tested too early and got a bfn. If it carries on like this I'd say it's deffo worth doing another test in a couple of days0 -
Morning all,
Big (((HUGS))) to those with AF visiting
Hello to our newbies :wave:
Very lacking in PMA at the moment
Not bd'ed all wk because ive been ssssoooo tired. CD22 today not sure if ive oved gave up on CBFM last wk :mad:
Deadline for work redundancies is Wed. Should find out more next Monday. All weighing on my mind at the mo.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you all though xxxxxxxxxxx0 -
Morning ladies
GTS (((HUGS))) for this week - it's really hard to think about BDing when there are stessful things going on...... look after yourself
madbird defo worth testing again soon!! Fingers crossed!!
VK-2008 welcome to the thread!!
As for me, CD15. Another stable temp and so I don't know what's going on - really thought I'd have OVed by now and my AF is due in 14 days so thinking I don't even have enough time for a LH phase?

We've BDed 6 times in the last 8 days (which is SOOOOOO much for us!!!) and both DH and I are getting tired from "having" to do it - it'd be good if we felt we were doing *just* because we want to and not because we *have* to. But then, we feel like if we don't do it just one more time, if we get a BFN it'll be our own fault.
Ahhhh.... well. We decorated the spare room at the weekend, which will eventually be a lovely nursery. It's a really bright yellow and now I'm eyeing up curtains etc for it....... obviously, none will be bought until we're preggers and I just want my body to get on with it!!
Have a nice day ladies
xDxFear is temporary, regret is forever.....:happyhear Baby girl born 27th September - 10 days late!! :happyhear0
