  • Morning lovelies!

    I have had a lovely weekend visiting my 4 day old niece which has obviously not helped at all with the broodiness :rotfl:

    Odd things happening here - AF was due Sat/Sun. Had mild (ish) AF pains on Saturday evening and a bit yesterday eve but so far nothing to report. As we only BDd once around OV (2 days before) I can't think this is my month. So I guess its the Vit B Complex working its magic and extending LP. Problem is...this now means cycles are longer than 30 days now which means less chances :cool:

    Amezzin news JCR - Congratulations :j:j:j
    Leo James arrived 7 days late on 26th August 2011 by emergency CS :j Such a cheeky chappy now :T

  • hi guys, for those who use cbfm, is it vital to start on cd1 as supposed to cd2 or 3 etc? I have just ordered mine and expecting AF so would not want it to get here after it starts and have to wait until the next cycle to start using it!

    No I'm going to hold off until Friday (works xmas party that night). I can't take another BFN and I really don't think this is our month.

    Phew! Took me a while to catch up there!

    Congratulations to jcr16 and msfc! I hope the TLP's soon turn into BFP's! :D

    I don't usually get that many symptoms before AF is due, especially not 4/5 days before, but this month seems to be different. Spotty face, slight cramps and sore bewbs. Doesn't help that I felt so nauseous this morning I couldn't eat my breakfast! Think that was because we accidentally left the heating on high all night and I was too hot. I feel sick when I get too hot.

    So, naturally, I have headed down to the vending machine and got myself some crisps and a Galaxy Caramel choc bar (known as Dove Caramel here! lol), cos you know, I needed something to make up for the breakfast I missed and this is err......wholseome and nutritious?! lol

    Part of me is secretly hoping that this is all pregnancy symptoms! lol. How silly is that? I'm still on the pill at the moment. I was ill last month and so the pill wouldn't have been effective then, but I told OH and I was too ill to do anything at that point anyway. Wishful thinking on my part.

    Anyone feeling down today, come and share some of the choc bar with me! :)

    Edit: I found somewhere to get OH's Xmas pressy from. He also gave me some money to order him a new 3D computer screen at the same time. *rolls eyes* Boy and their toys!

    I would say yes - I get a strong line for 2 days and then it goes faint again for one day after and then disappears altogether.

    I'm cd23 and don't know what's going on. Temp jumped up yesterday which I thought was ov (I had been expecting it) but then dropped back today. I even took it 3 times this morning to check it wasn't the thermometer throwing a wobbly. Suppose nothing I can do but wait and see...
    I sometimes get a rogue low temperature during the luteal phase. If I have a high then a low then another high then I look at what my other symptoms were to determine whether the first high was a rogue high temperature before ovulation of the low one was a rogue low one after ovulation. But for TTC purposes I would continue on the basis that you haven't ovulated yet just in case.

    well i'm being very good and not tested yet. i will tomoz tho. have to say tho part of me isn't wanting to test, incase the second line doesn't come up again.

    Any way the first test i did, it is very clear now a second line and i keep checking it,lol.

    Crazy thing is , if it was anyone else i'd be postive and be saying doesn't matter how faint the line. a postive is a postive. but when it is yourself then it a different matter.

    congrats to u moneysavingfamilycomp. hopefully ur believing ur test more than i am,lol. have u tested again ?
  • Hello! May I come back now please?
    So good to lots of BFP's.

    This was me.......Lauraspagetti (30) TTC#1 since 06/10 - changed my username to ilovecushions.

    CD 14 for me. Not temping or anything this time, too much pressure on OH. I have bought some conceive plus though.......I'll prob not tell him exactly what it is!
