    New here.

    Wife is currently trying for a baby and have decided to start charting bbt in hope that we can pinpoint her fertile days. We have tried a number of OPK'S but none have been able to detect the LH surge. So i am hoping that BBT will assist.

    Thanks

    Her last AF was on the 2/05.
    According to FF her fertile days were 11th,12th 13th with Ov date on 14th

    prior to these dates non of the opk we used did detect a LH surge

    Please view my bbt chart here

    Tinks you are so creative, defintely another one here that would love that recipe. The cricketers would love it. A Bake Club sounds fantastic, me and a couple of mates were going to do one but we live slightly too far away, so instead we have our Stitch and B**ch Club.

    So sorry to see you again, Walby and Lemonmelon, so soon on here under such circumstances.
    Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.

    If you can think it........it will happen

    AAGHH Ive had it with OPKs! They hardly ever seem to turn positive with me - one at noon today was starting to show a surge, but then one I took just now (after holding wee for 6 hours, eek!) has a fainter line.

    Its weird cos my LH is more than double my FSH so if anything I should be getting false positives

    Anyway, going by EWCM (loads of it!) and FF Im due to ovulate tomorrow so will go ahead with operation BD 3 nights and see what happens

    Hmm maybe I should try the digital clearblue opk from now on :S
    We got rid of the kids. The cat was allergic. ;)

    Hi all,
    Sorry to hear the news from lemonmelon and walby. Big hugs to you both.

    This relaxed TTCing is hard work. No idea when I ovulated or when I am due to ovulate, but due to the amount of stress at work this week, I doubt whether this month will be any good.

    Fingers crossed for all you though.

    Thankyou ladies for the warm welcome, it actually feels good to post somewhere familiar. I am dealing ok I think, OH has been brilliant and the women at EPU are so kind

    Tink, they look amaaaaazing, bake club sounds like a brilliant idea :-) stitch & b****h made me chuckle for ages vesper, much needed :-D

    Hugs for CD 1 time2deal, well done on your pma, fingers crossed your different month means your body is all ready for a baby this cycle :-)

    Welcome blacksta, I had (what started as) an ovarian cyst last year, hope your wife is doing okay
