Good morning:wave:

Bigzee, why not put a line in manually?
It won't put a line in unless you put a +OPK or something.
pokey, (((hugs))) for AF

AF when TTC is always hard even if you already have many babies:o
klump, I think flying while pg should be fine, just make sure you don't drink alcohol and drink plenty of non-fizzy non-caffeine drinks, and walk about to prevent dvt. If 6 weeks, morning sickness may have started, so carry some snacks too:o

Also testing at 10DPO? Don't go out and have a drinking party just yet:o
Amymo, congratulations! That was quick:shocked:
Don't worry, a lot of people spot when pg, but have perfectly normal pregnancies. But do pop over to the <12 weeks board:)
Secretdebts, sanity sent your way:rotfl:
skintchick, you are SSing But it sounds good:cool:
MrsBryan, I will go the relaxing way first, but BDing more around the time you think you are oving and for few days after and hope for the best. If it doesn't happen for you in 6 months time, then you could start thinking you've got ov dates completely wrong:o
claire, have a look at other people's charts (names in blue on Team Sticky list) and you can see how much of our profile you can see. Here's mine:http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/286900

As for VIP, you can still use FF, it just loses some functionality like countdown to testing day, pregnancy monitor and all the SS. Also, you can only show 2 charts to the public. It still gives you the chart and ovulation/coverline crosshairs, and that's all one needs:cool:
BB1984, sorry about the link, don't know when it disappeared:huh:
kaemi, sorry for the cold (((hugs))). Hope you'll get better quickly.
Ov is usually delayed if you fly, but I see what you mean about water bottles:D

Don't give up hope. My acupuncturist told me about the client she had seen earlier yesterday. A lady in her early 40's who'd had a couple of unsuccessful IVF rounds who was throwing everything at what would be her last treatment and decided to have a few months of acupunture first, she got pregnant naturally before she had the treatment. She was in getting acu yesterday as she was overdue and wanted to get things moving. Not saying it's necessarily down to acupunture or anything else but miracles do happen!

My friend too had problems TTC. She was 39 when she started and unfortunately had 6 MC's as the babies never developed a heartbeat. She too did a couple of rounds of IVF with no luck something to do with her eggs. She went to an acupuncturist who gave her a book revolving around chinese medicine , she changed her diet for to fall in line with the recommendations. I am happy to report that she conceived naturally and in June she gave birth to a lovely healthy baby girl called Evie Mae just before her 42nd birthday.

Well after feeling quite positive yesterday, I now feel rubbish. We tried to BD last night but for the first time ever DH couldn't perform. I feel awful, he says it was because he was tired but I know I am putting too much pressure on him to BD too much when he works so hard and was really tired. I still tried to jump on him anyway and now think I have scared the poor man off. I didn't instigate BDing this morning but he apologised as he left anyway for feeling too tired again this morning. Poor man, I have become way too obsessed with ttc I think. I tell him when I get a positive opk and this month told him exactly which days we should bd. My goodness no wonder he got stage fright!!

To top it all my temp went up yesterday but this morning it has gone back down again. The same thing happened last cycle. Its as if my temp goes up on the day I think I ov but only for that day. Then stays low for the rest of my cycle. Could this mean I am not actually oving? Even though I got positive OPK, ov pains and (some but not a lot) ewcm?

Sorry for the rant. I know I need to relax. Thank goodness its Friday.

Thanks for the welcome QQ and everyone else!

Do you think I should get ovulation tests? First time trying ever this month and we wanted to just 'go with the flow', be a bit laid back about it, for the first 3 months anyway. And although I think I know when I'm ovulating, could I get it wrong? We were just going to BD regularly and see what happens! Seems like everyone uses the ovulating tests?
My best friend was TTC for 3 years and I saw what she went through, all the day counting, ov testing, disappointments etc and know how tough it is emotionally. Didn't want it to be like that right at the start....anyone know what I mean? Or am I sounding selfish
Haven't even started trying yet and I'm already thinking about it non-stop, doesn't bode well for me.....!

It's entirely down to you dear.. I use them as I am a teeny bit older (38) so have less time in my mind to go with the flow - especially as OH wants 3!!. Otherwise for the first few months I'd have done the same as you.

Hi all, in NYC atm and haven't had a chance to read back - just popping on to say hi. I'm 3DPO today, not holding out much hope tbh as I must have OV-d while on the plane, and I've seen what the pressure does to my water bottle, so a tiny egg doesn't have a chance! Absolutely LOUSY with a sinus cold (and cough, sore throat and ear ache), have been for 2 days. I always seem to pick things up on planes, I'm just gutted it happened for New York. Currently on the bathroom floor as I keep coughing so much I retch - so I decided to pop on here and say hi to you lovely ladies.

Put me down for 11 BFPs this month please QQ.

Oh poor you, I hope you feel better super quick so you can enjoy NYC.

My update - proper AF pains yesterday evening which resulted in me running to the loo every few mins to check. Nothing until sleep time when is was feint pink on a 'wipe' (TMI sorry.. will be more of it too!) It wasn't anything you'd really notice if you weren't inspecting the paper :rotfl: I even got up in the middle of the night to check - nothing. This morning I have what looks like pink CM. I am still getting dull AF pains on and off and have now got a tampon in situ so will be able to tell if I am on CD1 or not early this afternoon I'd guess.

What has surprised me is I am not as gutted as I imagined I would be if it is AF.... probably being selfish as it means I can now drink mojitos on holiday!!!:T:T

My OH has asked not to know when it is +tive OPK time ... he says it feels weird doing it for a specific purpose not just because we feel like it.. which I have to agree with as it did feel strange BDing to a schedule.

I've been doing Chinese medicine since mid-May. Should start working any day now:cool: At least my BBT temps has risen.
I did acupuncture for a while, but given up now. Maybe I should go back again:huh:

Temps can be temperamental:o
By the which CD are you? I don't see you on Team Sticky?
One can surge and not ov, but surge again soon after.

Morning all!

I'm at work but have snuck on here for a bit. I am still awaiting first AF after stopping the pill. I have had a kind of very light AF/spotting for about a week now but not what I would could call 'full flow' therefore I don't think it is a proper AF. It's really annoying because I want to be able say what CD I am and know that I can really get cracking with this TTC business. I'm so impatient. I never thought I'd be wishing for AF!!!

Hope everyone is well today. At least it's Friday - woohoo!!!

Oh, and congrats to Amymo!
