    Kaemi, I'm the same, and as we're not trying yet and I still have the IUD in, I can safely say that it is hormonal, rather than me wanting to catch the eggy.

    Well, I wonder if it's not hormonal, and more to do with doing nothing for close to a week (when AF is here), so I build up more of a desire, go all out once AF is gone, and then I'm satisfied again and not bothered for a while. Does that make sense?

    Your chart is looking good:) You may have implanted on the 20th fingers crossed (with possible implantation dip). When AF is coming the temp drops below the coverline:(

    Hi QQ hope you and DH are well. Thanks for keeping an eye on my chart (and thanks emsbet for your explanation too!).

    I am going out for lunch in a bit and was going to grab a test (to use not until 14DPO if AF not shown by then!). What should I go for that is good but not expensive. I recall someone saying superdrug are good?

    Does anyone else find their drive is much lower in the second half of their cycle? DH has always commented I go in phases of not being able to get enough of him and then just wanting to sleep for a few weeks, but since charting I can clearly see it's linked to OV. I don't think its due to wanting to catch the eggie as I'm all over him like a rash from about CD4 (AF gone v short and v light now off implanon).

    Yes ME !!!
    last night for example I just couldnt be a**d ! hehe

    I think Superdrug's own ones are fine and they don't cost much at all

    DH got me a bottle of pink champagne last night to 'tide you over' until my period party which is in a few days time apparently. I'm expecting a meal out somewhere nice tbh as I'm a real foodie.
    Lovely:happyhear
    I managed to completely forget my temp! I have a feeling it was 36.45 but I wouldn't put much money on that.
    You can take a break from temping for few days at the beginning of the cycle:o
    I didn't even need a polish let alone fillings, so I'm feeling pretty chuffed about that.
    Well done:T
    That reminds me, I better go soon...
    I think a month of recreational rather than procreational BDing sounds pretty good Praline - lets face it thousands of women get pregnant every day without temping and peeing on strips of paper, so there is nothing wrong with just enjoying your hubby.
    Hear hear!

    We are all ruled by hormones:o
    PMA for the day: I have on a new blouse that 3 people have already commented the colour looks amazing on me,
    What colour is it?
    this time next week I'll be in Paris, I can enjoy the wine in France and relax with a book by our pool and just generally enjoy being with my family, I don't have to give up my beloved diet coke yet, one month closer to being where the healthcare cashback plan will pay out £750 if we have a baby.
    Wow you are really splashing out on AF party:D
    (NMA: My work are mean for not letting me have a hot water bottle for cramps!)
    Boo...

    It was red and clotty spotting on a tissue - it's then gone to peachy/pink sort of creamyish. Not been enough yet for a towel.

    Deffo not my usual spotting though!
