    january - that sounds like a confusing cycle! Is it light/heavy spotting? Red or brown blood.[/QUOTE]
    I've had both light and heavy spotting while spotting, mostly red or pink but a little bit of brown as well. Typical that the first cycle I temp that I get my oddest cycle.
    OH said I was really warm in bed last night, then this morning I get my lowest temp since the 10th. Feeling a bit sicky and light headed but flu is going around so I'm most likely getting ill which I think can mess with cycles anyway.

  • Fannyanna - Soooo Glad that you had a positive experience at the docs:j. My doc has said that to get IVF type treatment I have to have a BMI under 35 but he is happy to run tests and medicate my cycles no matter what my weight. But obviuosly it is in my and my future baby's best interests to be as healthy as possible.

    TCD - Sending you positive vibes. Sometimes this journey just sucks. Complain as much as you like.

    TL - I am in a similar position. Wanted a few kids but now have come to believe that One will be enough. At least I will never have to go on hormainal birth control again.

    Skintchick - I really hope that your next pregnancy will be an uneventful one resulting in a bouncy healthy baby.
    The Valentines day list sounds like fun but I am afaid that my cyles are just too unpredictable to join in but cudos to you for organising it and I hope there are lots of resulting BFPS;)

    To the Lurkers
    - I lurked for ages before I started posting but it is great having all these lovely ladies to chat to. So if you are ttc then please join in. If you are no longer ttc and have a preganancy to announce then I am sure the pregnancy thread would love to hear from you....and many of us stalk that thread anyway:p Good luck with whatever journey you are on:)

    I agree with all the ladies re bfp announcements! Please don't post for the first second or third time announcing a bfp! It's annoying!!!!

    Sweet and to the point there Becca! ;)

    Maybe when we start a new thread we should put it as a rule on the front page. :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    I know I sound thick but I don't know how to do a link to my chart and don't know how to do links on my tablet!

    When you ask what my chart is showing can I ask what you mean? I'm having a thick day I think.

    hello lovely ladies......after your discussions the other day about music i have a constant theme tune for this thread in my head now....
    Lets get it on....awwwww yea....leeets get it on
    seriously, i blame all of you :) hehe

    Birdie - big hugs to you, you're not sounding bitter at all, just exhausted by the whole process......whoever went into this thinking that BDing lots would be such a chore! but its a journey as tink says (i loved your post about the journey tinks, very uplifting) and we'll get through together, propping each other up along the way.

    Skint - i hope we get to see a BFP for you very soon and its a sticky one for you!

    Becca - (hug) your DH wont blame you, its not your fault at all and on the good side, at least the process to get the help you need has been started, which can only be a good thing and a move towards ur little one.

    Mrsg26 - welcome! please join the fold of crazies :) hehe, just kidding. I had my mirena removed on 31st Aug after 4 years, since then i had a chemical in Sept and my cycles have slowly been becoming a more regular pattern, although not really there yet. but then i never had a regular cycle before either so that could just be me.
    All the best for your journey, i hope its a short one!

    weve been seriously inundated with BFPs in these last few weeks! wow! congratulations to all, but there are still so many more to go! id love for this thread to be adandoned because everyone has got their BFP, hope for even more than this month in Feb (or in March following a BD filled Feb, make Vals day last the whole month!)

    If you are using FF at the top right hand of the page it says 'sharing', if you click once it will give you choices, you should choose 'get code' so you can share the links (if you want to that is).

    You are NOT thick, I think I misunderstood you. Have you only charted for two days or was your previous cycle the first? I didn't realise you are only cd2. *slaps own head*

    Ive done a cycle temping and now it looks like I'm cd2 this new cycle which will be a second cycle. I don't explain things well and confuse people, sorry. Just confused as wasn't expecting my period untill the 3rd of February.

    Hope this works

    Will read back and post later, but thought this might be of use to anyone who uses Conceive Plus. Went into my local Boots today and managed to pick up two lots of the 9 applications boxes for £1.50 each - bargain! Might be worth having a look in yours too, as when I went to check the usual shelves for it, it was empty. Not sure if they're not going to carry on stocking it, but dates on them were 03/2014.
