    what app do you have on your phone optimistic? It sounds like a very sixties one!

    I have lost 2 lb this week according to my wii fit so fingers crossed that I can lose a few more.

    Morning everyone, hope everyone is ok.

    Can I be changed to 1dpo please??

    I suspect we've missed the chance again this month as we didn't BD Mon or tues due to me having a really sore throat and feeling like poo. But we did get lots of BDing in over weekend, so fingers crossed.

    My hubby is having a hard time at work at mo, and I kept him awake last night, fidgeting as I had a really high temperature, he knew I wasn't feeling well, but shouted at me for keeping him awake....which set me off crying as I felt so ill, but because he's so grumpy he just got up and slept on sofa! So I'm still annoyed with him this morning. As I know he's only grumpy with me because of work, but be still doesn't need to be such a prat about it!

    Anyway baby dust to everyone :D

    Vesper, a) I love that you had My Little Pony giftboxes at your wedding! b) suggestion: Rubiks cubes (you can probably get a job lot on ebay for not-a-lot on ebay), little badges with Rainbow Brite/Jem/Strawberry Shortcake on (try etsy or snag a badge maker and make your own), search ebay for Troll pencil toppers! Love the theme idea :)

    Hugs for feeling ill and having a grumpy hubby Loulou :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    CD14 and temp still not risen, but EWCM and I thought I would've ov'ed by now, but maybe that's because we BD'ed this morning and then I got up to temp rather than getting up straight away.

    Did you have your progesterone test done on CD21 last time?

    Either, you are having an anovulatory cycle or you have missed your LH surge. Both are possible.

    Have you been getting any line at all on the tests? Yes, liquid intake can effect the result.

    Hi lilymay1

    Yes, the blood test was the progesterone test on CD21, I am just getting to grips with the terminology :o

    I will google 'anovulatory' cycle, but I assume it means a blip?

    I have had a faint line on about Day 12, so perhaps coupled with the liquid intake it could have been a weak positive.

    I have been going to the gym a lot (well a lot for me) so I have had to drink more water, but I will try and observe the rules for next month.

    Thanks for your reply
  • 11DPO here - done a test but BFN but not giving up hope yet!

    Has anyone had problems with FF recently?

    I took my temp this morning but it hasn't updated my chart - if i move my cursor to the end of the chart it shows that today was put on but no dot or line
    Any ideas on how to fix?

    Hi Ladies

    Well one of my closest friends has just let me know she is pg. I thought she was because when we went out 2-3 weeks ago she wasn’t drinking and ordered well done steak (not like her at all). She is 12 weeks and has just had the scan. She apologised for lying to me (I had a few wines and asked her straight out) so I suppose I understand; just v jealous and fed up now L

    Bless OH though for being supportive: had a faint opk on Sunday and bd’d; stronger on Monday so bd’d, stronger again last night so bd’d and he has said this morning that we can try again tonight “for good luck”. So fingers crossed I won’t be too far behind my friend – I was so positive we’d be pg before them but I guess I’m just being childish.

    Haven’t read back cos I’m at work and shouldn’t be on here just wanted to vent really L Will catch up later. xx
    First baby due October 2013 :j

  • Danielley Anovulatory just means that you haven't ovulated this month. It's perfectly normal for a woman to have 1 or 2 anovulatory cycles per year so don't stress if you did.

    More likely is that you've drank too much by the sounds of it. I don't drink for about 2 hours before I do an OPK so that the urine is more concentrated. I don't tend to drink a lot anyway tbh. Also try to take them at the same time so that you have a clear comparison with the previous day- I think you're supposed to do them between 11am and 10 pm to give your LH chance to rise. I always do mine at 10pm.

    Nessie FF won't update my temp today either so I'm assuming they're doing maintenance or some other techie thing that I don't understand! :)

    Hopelass It's nice that your OH is so supportive. Here's to hoping this is your month :) . I know how terrible the jealousy feels so hope you manage to let go of it (I can't- I'm a horrid person...) as it doesn't help anyone really.
  • Good luck to those ladies pre-emptively POAS- lets hope AF doesn't get you! :)
