TTC 2012 Group Year of the ball, Year of the bump

Taryn - I am not too sure how it works out your coverline .... I think it is just an average. The most NB thing about the coverline is it is just a VISUAL tool to separate out your 2 phases. It has no BIOLOGICAL meaning. So if you drop/ dip below for a day or 2 it does not meaning anything! Although hopefully the dip will signify implantation.
Test only if no AF but am positive I am out!

2KM - Perhaps start with benylin from CD8 and BD every 2 days (10ml am and 20ml pm) Good luck!

I think it is great you are temping so that you can figure out if and when you O. If you are Oing but only having sticky CM then I would say try the benylin wet cough route to "loosen" things up a bit.
Unfortunately, it is very frustrating to wait that first month of temping to get your answers. Perhaps use the cough syrup this month anyway as it doesn't hurt! Good luck.

Thanks for the info. I havn't started Temping yet, my 2dec thermo packed up. I have to buy a new one. I am just going on CM and wanted to do OPK's but after last month and the 3 + days from CD 11 that were very confusing I havn't bought any yet.

Lucy - Yes, Im so excited now. Atleast i know the low dose Clomid actually did work for me. How does FF work out what your coverline should be? And what happens if my temps drop under the coverline in Luteal Phase?
Are you still planning on Testing tomorrow???

Morning ladies

Hope everyone had a nice weekend, our was fun. Enjoyed the time with my parents and I think my dad enjoyed his 60th.

Don't feel like work at all, but if I think about it, I never really do.

Sorry girls, i don't know about the CM and what can be the cause of your strange patterns.

AFM- nothing happening. On CD19,so I suppose I'm in the 2ww. But I think we totally missed the boat this month, I'm not even gonna try and hope. On Saturday I'm going to the shops, so I will try and make a point of buying OPKs, a 2 decimal place thermometer and maybe some preseed.

Have a great day!

Taryn - Yippee for O !!!! FX !!

Lizzy - Only 2 sleeps til you see your bean!

Tanz, Kimika, Hayley, Fahaway, Helena, Tracy and all the other ladies - Hi and hope you have a good week!

I started on CD5. Missed Saturday, drank yesterday and just gonna drink 2night again. Have 2 go for bloods on CD12 to check if and when I O.

I found this on a website when I was searching for answers last week:

"Semen breaks, doesn't stretch, it dries out when you rub it between your fingers, and it floats in water (and/or dissolves...it is water soluble, EWCM is not)."
