    Evening all, hope you have managed to enjoy some of the lovely weather today. I have been on the beach with family which has been glorious.

    Spooney I usually get a few twinges around ovulation time on both sides, so sounds like a good sign to me!

    Zeni that's an interesting symptom, how are you feeling today?

    Athensgeorgia any sign of AF?

    Well my body is currently playing silly beggars and ovulation doesn't seem to be happening for some reason. Seems my ovaries have become lazy this summer! Should have ovulated by now but my temp keeps starting to rise then dipping again... It's annoying as we have been BD loads this week!

    Hope everyone is ok.

    Have decided I think I actually missed ovulation this month, think it occurred around CD15 in hindsight, but unfortunately I had been very poorly with labyrinthitis and was not testing then, so think we've missed our window, but will get back to trying again after this cycle. I don't know if it's just wishful thinking but I have a good feeling September is going to be our month. Fingers crossed :)

    Sorry to hear you have been poorly thrift360, hope you feel better now. I have put you down as 7 dpo, let me know if you want me to change it. Glad you are feeling positive about September, hope it is your month.

    I got a slight temp rise this morning and judging by lack of CM and twinges which I have had then I think I have ovulated. Does anyone else get or know anything about slow temperature rises following ovulation?

    Hope everyone is having a nice Bank Holiday weekend :)

    @Chelle feeling much better have chucked the washing up liquid haha! Just was really odd as stuff like that doesn't usually set me off and cause to me feel ill the whole day. I'm just waiting anxiously till my ToM is due which Ovia predicts weds so will see!

    Hi anotheruser its really nice to have a male perspective and what your saying is what I'm trying to avoid my OH feeling like. Have you talked to your OH about it and feeling under pressure?

    Hey teeniepops it sounds like you have a lovely and very supportive OH. Good lukc for this cycle :)

    Oo MrsNubs thats sounding really interesting, def keep us posted.

    Rejoined Slimming World Mon so excited to getting on it and actually doing something to help this along. Thus cycle I'm feeling really positive..not sure why!


    Thanks, Zeni. He is fantastic about it all. Whenever I say things about it being my fault, he says 'No, it's our challenge'. I am lucky to have him but it does hurt me to see him struggle with his RA.


    Chelle, I'm useless with temperature stuff as I run warm due to my thyroid stuff. I literally feel red hot within seconds of waking each day so I've never picked up any trends. I do know friends who tracked temperature and found it helpful.

    Hope all are well and enjoyed their BH weekend. We are in France ATM so feel very relaxed and chilled out. I know I shouldn't tempt Fate, but I have a good feeling about this cycle. The clomid is working a treat so far and for the first time in years I feel it is a case of 'when' and not 'if' not.

    Fingers crossed for everyone x
