Attempt has commenced. Excited....

Thanks ladies for taking the time to comment, give advice, give encouragement and sharing your own stories. I guess I am now in the 2WW.....Eeeeek! Today was CD 18 and my BBT went up to 36.7 this morning, so well above the cover line. Yesterday was 36.54, but CD 15 and 16 I didn't take BbT coz as sick and soooo tired. I think I have to wait for 2 more days on FF before it gives me a crossroad to indicate when it believes I ovulated. But I am thinking it was yesterday some time, so it seems I could be in with a good chance. My OPK this morning was back to negative again as well. I am not going to let myself get excited this time round at all, as I don't want to get my hopes up only to be disappointed again. I'm just going to try and stay chilled and not get remotely excited unless I make it well past the 12 week Mark. I visited my 43 yr old friend today who had her 20 week scan two days ago as she has been worried and upset. They found at her scan that her little boy has an issue with his kidneys the poor thing. Anyway, that's my latest update. I'm a tad excited...but mostly nervous.

CD17 looks very likely for O, IMO. Fx for nice high temps!

Thankyou Maiden. :) xxoo

I looked at your chart and it is looking to me like ovulation occured.

RE the kidneys - there's something that shows up on lots of ultrasounds and then goes away again and it's only rarely anything bad. I hope she's not too worried, if no other markers are present the odds are great that this is just a temporary thing that will fix itself later on.

Thanks Atomic. Yes I think I Oed on CD 16 or 17. Either way, I think I nailed the timing so fingers crossed and we'll see....As for my friend Atomic, the Ob doing her scan said her baby has a horse-shoe shaped kidney. So they haven't separated like they should've had and formed two sep kidneys earlier on during the development stage. She has a scan and consult with a renal paediatric specialist next week so hopefully it won't be too bad. At least it's not a heart effect or something more serious but still hard to deal with when you expect everything to be perfect. Gorgeous pic of your precious little girl too, btw. :) x

1moregirl looks like your in with a pretty good chance . Good luck
Sorry to hear about your friend , hoping all will be ok xx
I know that pic of atomic daughter is absolutely gorgeous, she's a cutie ��

A high temp this morning but still early days at only 4dpo. It's soooo hard not to get excited. DH is still very anti baby so I don't think he would ever have changed his mind. All he thinks about is money. Wish me luck. Then I just had my mum here this morning telling me how lucky I am I didn't die last time when I had the miscarriage. Good Lord. Don't we just love negative Nancies? Not...

Thank you! Good luck!

Atomic - or anyone else - I only have 4 ubiquinol tablets left and I literally have no money left until Monday week (our little girl's 6 th birthday party on the weekend just gone, hence why I'm out of pocket. Lol!) do you think I can start taking it every second day now or is it too early and will do some sort of damage? I'm 5 DPO today. Thanks :)

Yes start spacing them out
