  • Looks like this will be CD1 for me, I hate going back to the bottom of the list :( PMA thought for this month-at least I won't be heavily pregnant or just have delivered around my final exam! :o

    Hope everyone has a nice day, I'm heading into uni for a couple of hours and then for a wander round town-the Next sale starts today I think :)
  • hello QQ, any chance you could put me to CD2?

    I think I'm going to try some IC OPKs this month, not so we can time dtd just to see if I do actually ov, do you think that would work with such a short cycle? maybe temping would be better, just so I can see whats happening.
    I'm feeling much more relaxed about the whole thing, I wanted to say a massive thanks to whoever posted that thing from FF (really sorry I cant remember who it was) it really reassured me.

    hugs to everyone that's needing them, at least its the weekend now and I think I'm going to enjoy it.

    Good morning, hope you are having a relaxing weekend:wave:

    norabatty, could you have had piles? Pity about baby aspirin, but I suppose they can't just prescribe it to you without testing:o I suppose cranberry juice is no good?
    It must be great for you two sisters to be pg at the same time:j
    B_girl, I take pregnacare too. I think they are fine:)
    Just make sure your DH is up to scratch too;)
    MrsHappy, hope it's not AF (((hugs))).
    BB1984, I missed you too:wave: Well done on losing 3lbs!:T
    As for late ov, (((hugs))):o I think I'm heading that way too. In fact I don't really care when I ov if not this Sun/Mon, as today is my last day with DH for a while:cry:
    Sorry to hear about your friend with cancer:( It reminds us that there are far more important things than TTC.
    LittleMissGiggle, (((hugs))) for AF. Hope she's gone now, and you are back to BDing:cool:
    penguin83, glad the lump was nothing (((hugs))). Life does flash past you when you have something like this doesn't it?:o
    i luv freebies, (((hugs))) for BFN, but it's not over 'till the witch shows:o
    GemmaE, hope your handbag will clean OK:o As for the blankie, how was your DD last night?:shocked:
    Good luck with new kitchen and bathroom:j
    Lemonmelon, (((hugs))) for AF

    Was it a 16 day cycle? Temping may be a good idea and show you what's going on in your cycle:o

    Hugs to lemonmelon, mrshappy and bb1984 :grouphug:

    Hello :hello: to everyone else on this lovely sunny day!

    Off on holiday tomorrow, so excited! Just had hair done and now a big clean of the house is in order - can't bear the thought of coming home to mess! Another very faint line on ov test today - won't test again so will guess my ov date to be on Tuesday. I can do regular testing and temping next month - really want to just relax and enjoy being away :)

    Lots of love

    I personally opted for the temping route as it gives you a whole picture and so much more information. I love having a month to month view and looking backat previous months. And based on all that it gives you a prediction for future months. I don't and prob won't go down the OPK's route as they are very expensive. I think so longs rumpy pumpy is regular enough you will hit the jackpot eventually without sticks. I am going for the SMEP this month as many have been lucky on it so far! Once a day round very peak time and all should be well :D

    CD13 - I've OVd today the last 2 months but no EWCM yet, +OPK or temp rise so I think it's gotten a bit later this month. Am I allowed to SS Ov?! If so have a bit of a skin breakout today which I seem to get 1-2 days before OV (seems to fit with the surge rather than the actual OV) so might get +OPK today, if not I need to look closer at my skincare regime!

    I say that, but I never actually get a positive on an OPK, just less of a negative. A very clear line, but never as dark as the control line. But I get the temp rise, so I do OV, so I guess it doesn't matter?

    Feeling a bit fired up to nest atm, which is multi-faceted for us - clearing the clutter, finishing the decorating where it got scuffed moving furniture in, and making some money by selling the clutter to clear some of the debts and make it a bit easier on us when we get that BFP (do you like my positive thinking?).

    SMEP fell apart a bit last night - I need to learn some self control!

    Sorry to hear you've got a late OV again QQ, make sure you get some couple time in before you go just in case.

    So sorry about your family friend BB1984, I hope she isn't in too much pain and can enjoy her time with her family and friends.

    Have a relaxing conception moon:wave:
    I always clean the house before going away, it makes coming back so much more welcoming:)

    You are right. OPKs are for those of us who can't do rumpty pumpties regularly:o
