    Can we take it as read that if you've gone missing, that you've been missed and wondered about and we'd like you to reappear...?:)
    Me too:wave:
    Had a look at last cycle's chart with a friend last night and wondered whether my body tried to ov around CD30ish but couldn't (cos of illness/antibiotics?)
    Or CD36:)
    so did so around CD40ish instead...I think I get a spotty outbreak around ov too, which sort of ties in (I've just had breakout and EWCM at the same time, but I'd actually be surprised if I've ov'd this "early" in my cycle, but I can hope!)...but that would still leave something like a 17day LP... Anyone know what's the normal range supposed to be? :huh:
    Normal range is around 10-16days. So you should've ov'd around CD41-47.

    How about CD43?

    :mad: just typed this one and we had a power dip and I lost my connection!

    Just a question for you lovely ladies. Is EWCM what you get around when you OV? If so, as I think i had this last Friday-Monday (ish) does this mean I could expect AF 2 weeks after?

    Just want her to arrive just to put my own mind at rest that my body is working. :o

    CD36 gives a 23day LP! :shocked:
    CD43 is plausible, but all my temps are screwy from all the antibiotics and such. And my temps this month are a good 1/2degree higher this month than the beginning of last month (I've now worked out how to change my home page thing and have overlaid the two if you want to nosey...they do seem a bit more stable this month than last month now though, so hopefully that's a good sign :o)

    I know that feeling :o
    Yes, generally EWCM is a sign of Ov, but you can - afaik - get a second LH surge later on etc too sometimes, just to throw you off :p But that's why it's better to track using a variety of methods (temps, CM, OPKs etc) But I'd say to be cautiously optimistic that if your CM is changing at least your body knows it should be doing something ;)

    So sorry to hear this emsbet :( Will the doc want to do a scan to confirm or anything or is it taken as read, sort of thing? I'm not a very huggy soul, but here...have some of this instead...:EasterBun :o

    Thanks :o I don't think the doctor would want to do a scan because it was so early (only 5 weeks) but I haven't spoken to them yet. Couldn't really face it today but will give them a call tomorrow to see.

    I'm so sorry emsbet (((hugs))). Take care:(
    You could try a hpt to see if you still have the hcg hormones remaining? Mine didn't disappear until after 2 AFs, but I was further along. (((Hugs))) Mr & Mrs Emsbet:(

    Thanks. I did think about doing a test but haven't I might ride it out for a few days and see how it goes first.
    Massive hugs to Emsbet - QQ told me the other day that you should be super-fertile now, so fingers crossed for you chick.

    Thank you. I hope that's true. We are both keen to get going again and have our fingers crossed that we won't have to wait too long for another chance. :o

    Yes. Usually last day of ewcm is the most fertile day, and ov is imminent:cool: If your last day of ewcm was Monday, then you probably ov'd on Tuesday, so you are 2DPO:) AF should arrive at around 15DPO (fingers crossed it wont:cool:).

    Hi QQ, thanks for thinking of me :D

    Bit strange this month, I've had cramps but they seemed to last a few days rather than usual 4th day before AF and they were more niggling than painful iyswim. My chest is so painful and, this may totally seem completely random, but my sense of smell seems to have gotten really sharp :huh: but that is probably an over active imagination :rotfl:

    Looking at my chart (1st month I've tried using it) my temps seem quite high still, don't know whether that's a good thing or a bad thing :o

    Anyway, AF is due either tomorrow or Saturday as I'm usually 25 or 26 days so we shall see what happens. I've been good and resisted the urge to test (shines my halo).

    So, as ever, good luck to everyone :j
