Trying for a Baby Part 8

Mrs_T_M

Sending everyone hugs!

I just made some peanut butter chip cookie dough if anyone wants any or any cookies in a bit. I don't even think I'll tell the husband that I made this stuff. If he doesn't know, maybe he won't want any!

I'm out of chocolate (:eek:), so I'm using some of the Reese's peanut butter chips we brought back from the US.

Is anyone around to slap me and stop me turning into a crazy TTC lady? I'msymptom spotting like crazy here and looking at my chart (and overlaying it on my chemical chart) isn't helping!!!

*smacks gently* I'm noticing things about my body in that area too, but I'm forcing myself to ignore them for right now.

In a way I really want to get a bfp this month, and in another way I don't. I'd really love to take my ibuprophen to get the inflammation down in my shoulder, plus I'd love to finish off the bottle of white wine that's in the fridge and try some of our new scotch! If it happens it happens, if it doesn't, I'm hitting the alcohol during my next AF!

I looked at the fertility friend thing, and I feel like I may need a walkthrough on how to use it. I feel silly for asking, but if anyone is around now (or later) who uses it and could walk me through some bits of it, I would appreciate it.

Thank you!

I use Fertility Friend - I tend to use the app on my phone rather than the actual site though. Do you have any specific questions?

Mrs_T_M

COMP - I haven't downloaded the app yet. Might give that a go and see if it's easier to figure out than the online one.

The app is so straightforward... You go into FF, log in then on the calendar you touch the current date which allows you to log your temperature (if you temp!) the time you took it, your CM and any other 'symptoms' as well as OPK (ovulation tests for those not caught up with acronyms yet) results.

If you temp, FF will give you 'crosshairs' once it sees three days of elevated temperatures. After a few months, if your cycles are regular you'll probably find that FF's predicted fertile days are pretty accurate.

I've been using the "Period Tracker" app for the past year, so I have a years worth of cycles, but I've only started to temp and pay attention when I wipe this month. It's downloading now, so I'll have a play with it and see if I need any help with it. Thanks!

please can I be updated to 5dpo (cd20) when the lists are done? Thanks.
In with a slight chance this month but don't want to get my hopes up for a Christmas bfp as it's also my birthday!!!! Always say my mum got the best Christmas present ever when I arrived

MV - thanks for update on QQ, glad she's OK, just a shame nothing has been sorted.

Mrs_T_M

Ok, I have all of the data that I have entered into the fertility friend app. It says that I ov'ed on the 8th (yay!) which would put me on 4dpo and means that AF would be due on the 23rd instead of the 24th. Got a major temp spike today as well. My normal is 98.1F, today I was at 99F (36.72C and 37.22C respectively).

Hi everyone

I didn't get my BFP last month and haven't been on here since to update I'm currently CD 13

Had last 9 days off work for wedding anniversary but due back tomorrow and I'm dreading it:( especially as I have to work over Xmas and new year too.

Hope those of you who've had norvo are recovering I had it in January and REALLY don't want it again...but as I work in care home its fairly inevitable someone will bring it in.

Can't believe its so close to Xmas - hubby has brought me a kindle fire so can't wait to get my hands on it!
