I hope it becomes clearer over the next couple of days mocha!
Hi to everybody else :D
I caved and told my mum about our BFP even though it's so early (I figured I'd tell her if anything bad happened anyway). She seemed really happy :D She asked whether we'd bought a book on how to have a girl or boy and I told her there was no need for a book with the internet! She texted me later to say that when she'd picked DS2 up from school there were 3 magpies on the ground (one for sorrow, two for joy, three for a girl ...). Bless her - I hope she doesn't get HER hopes up!

Hi mocha, it's really hard to tell anything from temps unless you have 3 solid hours of sleep and do it at the same time so I think you have ovulated, hopefully your temps will have risen slightly again tomorrow
-
Z, I think your mum will get her hopes up no matter what you do!!! It's good you told her, you light need her when the ms kicks in! X
-
I've never had ms before swish - weird huh?! Yes, I'm glad I said, I hate having to be vague!
-
Z - I plan to tell my Mom and my closest friends when I get a BFP too. If I ended up having a m/c I'd need their support anyway! Besides, most of them already know I'm TTC.
I know the temps are pretty much useless without a solid night's sleep, but there's no way around it for me. Again, I just figure a general trend is better than no temps at all. Last month there was a very sudden and distinct temperature shift when I O'd (like up a whole degree or something like that), so I figured I'd see that again this month. I agree that I probably O'd - it'll just be nice to see FF confirm it eventually.
-
I'll do the same next time too... we did tell my mum when we got our first ever BFP and then I did lose the baby at 3 months but I don't regret telling her as she knew how scared I'd been because it mattered so much to me. It was better for her to have known and to enjoy the news with us even for a while as our baby deserved that rather than to tell her when the news was already devastating.

Well, my cervix is definitely low, firm and closed now, and cm is creamy, so I'm either in the 2WW or I didn't O. I've been crampy all day like I often am the day after O, so hopefully that's a good sign. DH and I dtd one last time tonight, which I suppose might have been an O+12 attempt, depending on when exactly I O'd.
I'm not really very happy with our attempt this month. All I did was the diet (with quite a bit cheat weekend last weekend while visiting my family, and another cheat night only 2 nights ago when I went to a friend's house), the 20lbs I've lost, SP and Vitex, Baby Aspirin, and tons of Diet Pepsi. I only used Rephresh once and it was nearly a week before O, I didn't use Sylk, and we botched our frequent BD and tried to make up for it with a couple of days of compressed frequent BD followed by once daily BD from then on. I just feel like there's no way I'll get my girl with such a sucky sway - I just wasn't willing to spend a year trying to get pregnant. Feeling a little down right now.
