    I just feel low as everyone else around me seems to be pregnant, it is happening to everyone but me.
    Welcome and (((Hugs))).
    He does all the stuff to improve sperm count and I have been testing ovulation. I just really want a baby now!
    How is your ovulation test going? Are your cycles regular?

    You could buy something that's similar in size, and shorten them?

    My DH suggested that too, I cant really be bothered to but will if it will save me money as I do have a sewing machine, but, it seems that the width most curtains go up to is 90'. and our rail is 112'! its because we have a bay window so half the curtain is covering the wall and not even the glass.

    I do have the old curtains in the loft but they will look sooo bad with the new paint colour!


    I think - just as you have put, that i am 1 DPO but my temp was a bit lower this morning, dont know why! So will see what happens tomorrow.

    Hi everyone, i have found that i should have been adjusting my temp, as at the begining of my cycle i was taking my temp at about 8.00am, and then when i started back at uni it was about 6.30. Does this mean that as the first ten days of my cycle i was taking temp at 8.00 and now am taking it at 6.30, that i should add 1/10 to each temp for last 13 days. Temp this morning was 97.33, if add 1/10 for each half an hour that would take it to 97.63, i have found thou that if i put in 97.73 for today, then it says i ovulated on day 19. Shall i leave it like this or put in 97.63 for today, then ovulation is not dected.

    Thank you everyone. Nice to have such a warm welcome. Cycles seem very regular. Used to be every 28 days in my teens, but then had 10 years of taking the pill.

    Since I've been of the pill they have shortened to 26 days. I did make the mistake initally of only using only fertility tracking, without testing any physical things. Since buying a kit etc, i see we were going for it about 4 days early.

    Emsbet - I feel for you. I wish you all the best. xxx

    Hmmm....:think: I think there's no need to adjust the temps as after few days of early mornings the body will get used to it.

    Do you think you ov'd at CD19?
    Since buying a kit etc, i see we were going for it about 4 days early.
    One needs to BD at the right to time to make a baby, even then, one has about 30% chance/cycle.

    Hope you'll catch the eggy soon:)
    Which CD are you on?

    No, adjusting temps are not a good idea. Tomorrows one will be pretty inaccurate:o

    Alex is clever, it's a unisex name:cool:

    I don't know the sex either, but there's old wives tale about the location of the placenta on pre 12 week scans and the sex, and mine was on the right (male), so that will have to do:o
