Just nipping in quickly to give hugs to anyone who needs them.

Those who have looked at my chart so far, does it look normal to you? I really have no idea what the hell I am doing with it and they all seem to be so different. I've not had a positive ov stick yet so should I presume I haven't ov'ed?

From looking at your chart it doesn't look like you've OV'd yet, there's no clear temperature shift, but it's quite early in your cycle still (how long are your cycles usually?). I would keep using the ov sticks (and keep BDing!). It's quite normal to see fluctuations in temperature before and after OV, but the main thing to look for is a clear difference between the pre-OV temps and the post-OV temps.

Thanks. Last cycle was 29, before that had been 31. Ov with DS was very early in my cycle judging by his EDD.

I'm tOo impatient for all this!

((hugs)) it's hard work being patient, isn't it?? With an average 30 day cycle you should probably expect to OV somewhere around day 14 - 18. Unfortunately cycles aren't always the same length though, it's so frustrating! If it's any consolation, we all go through it every month, feel free to come on here and have a rant any time or ask any questions etc!

Happy Birthday Tink!

Those cakes look gorgeous! Am just tucking into a slice of homemade banana bread. Prob not the healthiest thing in the world but it does have bananas in so it can't be all bad right??

Anyone got exciting weekend plans? Have decided I have to sort my hair out as it looks a right state so will be colouring it this evening, then getting quite a bit cut off it tomorrow. Sunday is my Grandad's 90th birthday so we're going round to his for tea. Lovely!

Have a good one all. Hugs, eggy vibes, baby dust and whatever else is needed as required to you all xx.

Thank you lovely.

Just a quick question, do you just take your temp once every morning? I only ask, as i did it twice yesterday morning straight after each other and they gave me quite different readings. I didn't know which one to put on my chart so just went with the first one?

Tea Lover - Have a lovely time with your grandad. 90 - That's great! I hope I make it to 90!

Is anyone doing anything nice tonight? I've got my parents coming over for tea so I'm going to make a curry. Yum yum

Enjoy the weekend tealover (and everybody else, of course!!) - I'm getting my hair sorted out too - cut and colour tomorrow morning, can't wait, it looks horrible at the moment!

LilyMay - I take my temp once, as soon as I wake up, the time usually varies, anything from about 06.00 - 07.30 but I can still see a pattern on the chart.

Yay for Friday :j Thinking about getting the spare room ready for painting (this is part of my tempting fate plan.....). I have also just ordered a very expensive new dress which is very slim fitting for a work function next week. I must be careful not to take this tempting fate malarkey too far

ooh lilymay i'm making a curry too! a jamie tikka and delia pilau

grr trying to be so so good before ov and i've already been tempted by a breakfast barm and there's biscuits including my favourite of all, jam teacakes! argh. must be strong til Ov, not sure what i'll do after that though lol :rotfl:

started temping this morning again too, so hopefully that'll help me understand my cycles a bit better and see if we're out or not early on if we happen not to BD around ov x x

and happy birthday tinkwings! those cakes look very scrummy indeed, blue is my favourite kind of colouring x x
