Trying for a Baby Part Six

QQuaver

DH did a real through job of vacuuming the flat (while I sat with my pc:D), it is spotless:cool:
I wonder when is a good time to introduce him to cleaning the bathroom:think:

Now!!

Just enough time to train him before you need to take 9 months rest, plus 3 months recuperation time

Those newborn babies doesn't look like anything do they?:D

Anyway, my dad can move his legs and arm now!:j Not back to normal, but hoping it's a start:)

My PMA is coming back up:j

:j Great news! :j I'm sure he'll make a full recovery - it's just when people are older it takes a bit longer to get over a shock like that. I'm really glad he's (mostly) ok And less for you to stress about too!

CD90 today and my tummy is soooo crampy, oweee

Poor you Charlie, that's rubbish I hope that the cramps signify SOMETHING - af or ov! Just out of interest, have you been doing HPTs through this cycle at all?

I'm 14DP(supposed)O and no AF and no good signs either.... wth...? :cool: I've no idea how long my LP is, but ...MEH.

((Hugs)) but no AF is a good thing! Let's just hope it turns into a bean and not a mammoth cycle!

*runs off to look at QQ's chart*

*runs back in*

ooooooh! That IS looking promising! The suspense is killing me, you must be pulling your hair out QQ! Good work on putting your feet up and letting your DH do the chores - you need to preserve all your energy

My temp dipped a bit this morning so could poss be an ov dip. BD-d this morning and will keep it up over the next few days. DH said this morning that he thinks it must be stressing me to be thinking about my temp etc so much, so he reckons we should just BD every day all the time

Had a mega lie-in this morning - didn't get up til gone 10am, which is REALLY late for me! Lovely Was supposed to be going sailing this afternoon but it was too windy so we went for a lovely bike ride instead. Really nice but I have a sore bum now :rotfl:

I don't know how anyone manages to pee in a shot glass! I used an old (washed out) houmous tub.... But DH found it in the bathroom and chucked it away the other day. Will have to find another suitable receptacle (love that word!) next time I get round to testing.

Is it ov crampy or AF crampy?

I'm not entirely sure what OV cramp feels like. I assumed it was the sharp pain I get in either side. But this is crampy, kind of all over but more to the left. Im assuming it's AF coming but it feels completely different since coming off the pill so it is hard to tell. I think I did feel like this time AF came (want to say last month,if only :rotfl:)

BB1984- I think I have, can't remember when though...probably no later than CD40-45.

I think i'll try a ov stick later and see if anything shows. I guess it ties up with last time as my cycle was 90 day (ridiculous!). I have kind of given up trying to see when I ov as it would be guess work my cycles are so long!

Thanks Emsbet and bigzippy

It's actually feeling alot better now and no AF yet!

I know I'm not out yet, but the temps have dipped again... we'll see. I'll be fine either way but I'm not hopeful (well, not intentionally anyway lol)

Hope something shows on the OPK, whether ov or preggo

Evening all

CD22 here and roughly 5DPO (although I'm only guessing - FF has me as ov-ing on 3rd May but I didn't have OPKs or anything so I don't know if that's right or not). Had some brown-ish spotting today, which then got a bit more than spotting but def not enough to class as CD1, so will see what happens tomorrow. My last cycle began with spotting which lasted a few days then went away then AF arrived a few days after that. But my average cycle is more like 30 days so if it is AF now then it's very early.

Only time will tell! And if it is AF then at least I can start tracking temp and use the OPKs that I bought off Amazon the other week and I won't have wasted my money :rotfl:

Have been at my parent's today as it was my dad's 65th birthday on Friday so they had a party. My brother and SIL were there with my gorgeous 5-month old nephew and I got a heck of a lot of 'and are you thinking of having a baby?' type questions, especially as my cousin has recently announce that he and his wife are expecting (she's 10 weeks gone now - although they weren't there today as they live in Aldershot which is quite far away from my parents).

Pleased to hear that your Dad seems to be on the mend and that your Mum is out of hospital QQ. Fingers crossed the eggies are implanted. Those charts look very complicated to me, as I don't know much about temperature monitoring yet. Am I correct in thinking that your temperature rises when you ovulate, or does it dip? (insert confused smiley in here)

Moon and I went on a 5mile walk today (we hadn't intended it to be so long, but we went the wrong way lol), and had lunch in the middle to celebrate our first month of being married! It's gone sooooo quickly!

I've just come back from a Zumba followed by a toning class, and am hoping to DTD tonight too before I have my shower (Moon has just got back from his shooting club) as I think (still haven't got a OPK so can't be sure) that I may be ovulating based on the discharge today. Keeping fingers crossed.

Hugs to all who need or want them,

Dips at ovulation and then rises afterwards (usually stays higher than the first phase of your cycle - pre ov), then starts dropping down as AF appears...unless it doesn't and you're preg :j

That's my understanding anyway
