All UK SMOG wannabes pls come this way! August 09 & September 09

CT - i believe its quite common for a little stained mucous at implantation and if the blood was browny coloured then it is old blood.  If your worried then i would say get an appt at your early preg unit.  I hope that it has all finished and you feel a little bit more reassured i think everything will be just fine!

How is everyone else today???

Hi All

I was wondering if I can join this group. I am not ttc until Dec but after reading this thread I am itching to be pregnant. Congrats to those of you that already have BFP's and FX to those of you in 2WW or ttc.

Are any of you drinking Crystal Light? I see they sell it on ebay and wondered if any of you bought some and if so which ones did you opt for?

ladies, slightly worried, just went to bathroom and sorry tmi, there was quite  a bit of bloody brown sticky cm! sorry! whats happening?? when i wiped there wasnt any on the toilet roll just in my underwear, i have been pretty busy today and stessed over this move thats been going on sine march!! had no pain i know it was early days anyway, but does any one know whats going on! [:'(]

- Cottontales, I think this might be a bit of implantion bleeding. Some women have this during early pregnancy. This usually occurs during the first few weeks. You may notice slight bleeding around the time your period was supposed to arrive. This happens because the fertilized egg is attaching to the uterine wall. Sometimes light bleeding or brown spotting will follow this. HTH :) I'm sure all will be ok.  xx

Welcome no5wantingasis glad you are joining us !

Welcome no5wantingasis!

I have missed OV again! It is coming earlier every month after almost two years of charting!!!! ARGGGHHHH!!!!!!! I just don't know what to do - it seems like everything is against this working for me I just don't know what to do now. Sholud I forget it or do a cut off? I think a cut off is more do-able as I know when ov is getting near if I use OPKs. Should I just try harder to find o+12 next month? Help girls please!

I have been reading loads from this site for the last couple of weeks. Has anyone tried a much longer cut off say about 5-7 days? I haven't seen much on this here. I am sure when I had my dd (which was without swaying) that this is what happened and why I ended up with a girl. My husband convinced me just the one time to bd without contraception and I remember thinking it was far to early to get pregnant!! What does anyone think? I thought maybe such a long cut off and all the little y's would die before ovulation

Hey maybebaby and no5 we followed the hazel chesterman book with DS3 and she believes that the further away from O the better for conceiving a girl so DTD 6 day before O after 6mth charting and or third mth trying and we had DS3.  I believe that 5+ day = boy and tamara forum leader if you as about longer cut offs says this is boy territory.  HTH.  I  think there are some posts about the x and y sperm and how long they live somewhere on here.

morning,

,my temps have taken a dive, like right down towards the cover line, did a test again last night still positive, i suppose if i hadnt done a test early i wouldnt have even know i was pregnant would just assume af is due to arrive, the down side of early testing

hows everyone else doing?

Hey CT

Its not over yet, i notice that your temps are not accurate temps as they are the open circle on your chart and your test is still positive, has the line got any lighter or darker?  Did your spotting stop?  I really hope you are pleasenty surprised and you dont get AF like you feel you will! you stay a BFP and everything is just fine! Keep us updated and i'm thinking about you

Ooh thanks for info, I hadn't realised this was the case and hadn't heard of Hazel Chesterman. Maybe I need to rethink!

CT - really hope all ok for you. try not to worry. You can start reading into everything. With no.3 they told me they thought I had a blighted ovum abd at 8 week scan no heartbeat. I had to wait for 2 weeks which felt like a lifetime and I started to stress out at every little symptom sure I might M/C but 2 weeks later there was the hb and all was fine. Try to believe it will be ok...we will all be praying for you xx

 As to how I am going to sway in Dec, I am ultra confused and as soon as I decide on 1 approach I change my mind. I really wish I could afford high tech and that it was legal in uk cos this swaying is quite stressful....and I haven't even started yet.LOL! Think I will try O+12 and possibly TBM...just not sure. Any of you tried TBM?
