    Urgh I have no pma after reading on here and else where about caffeine effecting stuff I decided to go cold turkey... havent had a glass of coke/cup of coffee for 2 days now and Ive never felt so crud :( headache falling asleep irritable :S seriously not good :(
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?

    AF still isn't visiting me here, but i'm the same as Twigpig and have lots of EWCM and i never have that so i may just have to invite OH to bed later.

    hey all
    hugs for those the witch got.
    after feeling sick since Tuesday though feeling better today, i went through a few days of thinking i was pregnant but now ive got no symptoms didnt have any implantation spotting etc :(
    im now 8DPO and peroid due on the 19th.

    Phunkles ive just been 2 days without caffiene and thats probably why im feeling so down about TTC, plus sore head

    pawpurrs, just thought I'd mention the baby mailing preference service in case you registered with any baby clubs. It got me off everything I'd registered with except for Emma's Diary.

    Temping would be a prob I think for me, as I get up anything from 4.30 to 7.30 (ish) lol on weekdays and later but varying times on the weekend. Is it right you're supposed to temp at the same time every day?
    I usually take my temperature at 7 but if I wake up after 4 needing the toilet I just take it then and sometimes I sleep late. It doesn't seem to cause any problems and generally I'd say anomylous results have been on days I've done it at the regular time. The est thing to do is probably just to start charting and see what it looks like.

    Thanks for keeping me company LemonTree :D

    Twigpig if you had some spotting 2 weeks ago could that have been a super light period? If it was then that would explain EWCM now, which could be ov? Do you have any IC OPKs that you could use to check whether you are ov'ing?

    The spotting wasn't even enough to mark my undies but it's certainly possible. I did actually use one of my cbfm test sticks on the 10th and the 12th just to see. Lol. One solid line only so would have read low....

    I'm still taking comfort that I'm not a freak when you guys post other strange random cycle stuff. :)

    QQ. Sorry it wasn't better news for you. Really hope your cycle is kind enough to hit just in time for when your OH is home.....
    TTC #3..........

    I know that it could just be a long cycle. The only thing is that the cbfm was high on CD24 before it went to low on the last testing day on CD25. If I wasn't near ov, surely it wouldn't have gone to high?

    Temping would be a prob I think for me, as I get up anything from 4.30 to 7.30 (ish) lol on weekdays and later but varying times on the weekend. Is it right you're supposed to temp at the same time every day?
    CBFM might go to low automatically on the 20th stick, I don't know.
    Once it reads High, I think it'll stop reading that line and look for Peak.
    How did the stick look?

    As for temping, it doesn't have to be the same time, it'll be more chaotic, but should show the shift:o
    hi CD5 today if this is a normal cycle not sure what will happen this month. anyway normally ov cd18/19 so when do i start using OPKs anyone any idea iv never used them before. my cycles are on average 32 days.
    I'd start CD10. That's cheapy IC OPKs? I start CBFM (more expensive opks) on CD12.

    Does anyone feel like having a child is futher away then before they started? When it was all just an idea I could imagine that it was just 9 months away (I was planning to join te one time only club) but now it seems like it could be 9 months, a year, 18 months...
    Me too, it wasn't supposed to take this long. I should've been on my second baby:o

    CBFM doesn't work for everybody, but it may be just a random late ov cycle we all have from time to time:o

    History states I always ov few days before I meed DH:p
    He's thinking of taking a week off and flying over for my ov, but I have this feeling my ov will decide to avoid that week:undecided
    I missed DH 3 times this year already by just few days:o

    Good luck on your caffeine, perhaps cold turkey is a bit too much?
    How about a once a day to start with? I've quit caffeine loooong time ago... (Hasn't helped ttc though:D)

    I'd drink 1 a day, that's not much, and it'll give you PMA you need for the bean to stick:o

    AF still isn't visiting me here.

    Oooh when are you testing? :j

    Doglover - can't believe your resiting the urge to test! You must be a saint!! Fingers crossed for you :D

    CD32 for me 5dpo and nothing to report, temps are going up nicely :D long may they continue :p

    Woke up this morning dreaming i'd got AF and it'd really confused me as i was only 5dpo :rotfl:thankfully it was only a dream!
