Trying for a Baby Part Six

Kaemi

Well done Gemma on race for life, fantastic thing to do.

FF thinks I'm due today (CD29) but I haven't got a temp drop really - it's lower than yesterday's monstrous 36.92 but still at 36.79 and my cover line is at 36.46. That said last month I only got the temp drop on the morning of AF so tomorrow might be the day. I was good and didn't test again this morning as I'm very aware my body is still settling in to being off contraception and I don't in any way feel pg, although a tiny part of me is starting to hope.

Yay for peak QQ - hope you and DH are making the most of it.

Hugs to all those that need them today x

Oooohhhhhh interestingly, I went back to my phone app - and on CD16, it says 'pain in right hand side, ovary??' Ovulation pain - High. Irritability - High CBFM High and I think this is the first day that I started using the sticks... so it probably DID miss it!!

ooo, is irritability a sign of ov? If so that explains a few things!

Are ou going to test tomorrow if AF doesn't arrive?
A lot of the ladies who have got there BFPs said that they didn't "feel" pg - not everyone gets symptoms early on.

Fingers crossed for you.

I have updated FF with temp and creamy CM. I haven't labelled it as spotting as I don't think it's enough to count as that and also because I don't want FF to tell me more non-pg charts than pg charts have spotting at 5DPO
LP last month was only 9 days.

Ooops sorry, clicked on someone else's chart:o
LP of 9 days is not that bad, looking at your chart, it could also be 10 days which is normal:cool:
Your chart looks good:j Go go Bob!

You should listen to your body:o

I think it is, being horny is also one:D

That would be why I was super annoyed at OH for being a slob and not doing any cleaning before I got home but still quite up for a bit of BD. It's confusing being a woman! I didn't get any of this when I was on the pill and before that I just thought I was nuts!

I'm not quite sure what set me off but I've been on a bit of a downer this evening.

I think I got a bit ahead of myself thinking that the Metformin had regulated my cycles and that this month would be closer to a normal 28 day cycle. I know 34 is still not that long (and a huge improvement on 8 months lol) but it's now a day longer than my last cycle. I know this sounds odd on a TTC thread but I just want AF to arrive.

I can completely relate fannyanna. I have that feeling every week or two, if I'm honest A thing on PCOS I read this morning said that Metformin helps after a few months, so don't lose hope, you've not been on it too long. Were you trying to lose weight too? How's that going for you?

Would you be able to do a bit of gentle yoga? I find it's great for relaxing and it's nice to stretch everything out even if you can't hammer it in the gym.

Not really. My joints are hypermobile and unstable so they dislocate too easily. I need to strengthen them before I try that sort of thing really... it's a sloooow process!

Rebekah, I don't want to sound mean or anything, but are you sure DH wants a baby (now at least)? I would hate for you to get pg and then find out that his heart wasn't really in it and he either resents you for "putting him in this position" (I've heard of it happening before) or not bonding with the baby...

((hugs)) Rebekah.
Maybe he's just been a typical boy about it all. My DH didn't really know much about the whole process (apart from the obvious ) when we started TTCing. Don't think he realised how many tests I would take and why. I think he thought if it was neg then that was it no baby this month!
Sometimes they just don't think things through before they say them. Hopefully your DH will get used to it all soon.

Yea thats true. It's soo mixed. Sometimes I get little signals that make me think at least he is now remotely interested. Where as before he wasn't at all. Then he says things like that. I guess denial is bliss to him. At bed time I said I will test when I want so I know then and not tell you and you will know when my period doesn't come. And he said you can't do that and not tell me. LOL Make your mind up man ...

It was my 1st BD after UTI, TMI alert: I peed before and after and wiped with Andrex wet tissue 3 times, but kept waking up when the remains of BD started leaking:o Decided to change my undies at 4am:o
Rebekah, it's good to have a DH who's not interested. At least it wouldn't be like my DH, asking 'when's your AF? Isn't it late?' (Haven't ov'd yet), 'Don't you ov on the 14th day?' (this was this morning, like I ever ov'd on the 14th day:mad:), and everytime before BD - 'when are you due to ov?':mad:

Ooh maybe I am lucky after all You need to chat to him poppet and get him to take the pressure off of you. Mayb that that's partly stopping you from catching a beanie.

Really funny re your undies. I get that too its annoying isn't it. However as we are in TMI land: Don't you love it when you sit on the loo after and it all plops in hehehehe:rotfl:Just sounds funny :T I make hubby listen sometimes look can you hear your spermie coming out :rotfl:Then he tells me off for wasting it

I think he also quite likes all the extra BDing so wouldn't
really mind if it takes another month

That bit is definately right!!:rotfl:
