Ladies do you find the fish oil makes your period go for ages? I am on day 7 and still bleeding... wonder if it is the fish oil as this is a blood thinner, hey>?

[DoulaMama]

That is such wonderful news! Congratulations on your baby girl!

Thank you so much! Congratulations right back at ya!!!! Bucket loads of BLUE DUST coming your way!!!

wow how come he don't know? he want a surprise baby? How can you keep it all that long?

I've kept it a secret before....I found out with DS1 and accidently found out with DS2(they showed me his obvious bits on the u/s at 20w. My hubby wasn't in the room). I know my hubby really loves the surprise so I wanted to keep that for him.

[love being a mummy]

Forgot to take BBT this morning.

[Kris217]

Good to know, thanks.


Would having the heater on affect my BBT

I'm not too sure about that, but it was winter when I checked and was sleeping with a heated blanket on me.

Good to know, thanks.


Would having the heater on affect my BBT

Take it before you get out of bed in the morning or do any big movement. If you have the heater on every morning it won't influence your temps. When we put our down comforter on for the winter a couple of weeks ago I noticed my temps went up around half a degree and have stayed up. So I think that a heavier comforter/heater WILL influence temps, but if you are using it every night/morning your temps will be consistent for it. Does that make sense?

I have always taken mine orally before I get out of bed in the morning. Alarm goes off, I reach over and get it, take temp. Put it back on nightstand. Then I get up, go potty (use monitor at that point), etc. When I come back to make the bed I check the thermometer... it stores the temp for me

Foxy, really sorry about AF. Are you attempting this cycle?

3, belated Happy Birthday to your DD2. That photo is gorgeous!

DM, congrats! Such fantastic news I don't know how you can keep it from hubby! Do you think he will sense it?

MFC, how are you doing? Are you going for a blood test soon?

LBAM, I've got a white and pink thermometer. Maybe I should chuck it and get a blue one? Haha. Skrimpy gave some great advice re temp taking.

Flava, 9dpo already! How are you feeling?

5, so your trying this month for sure? Not sure about the fish oil. I haven't bled any longer than usual.

I'm CD10 today. I had an ultrasound today which showed a dominant follicle (was secretly hoping for two dominants!). My lining is also good. So I should O in the next few days hopefully. DH released 3 days ago so we will DTD tonight and then maybe tomorrow night or the night after depending on my OPKs.

[TTC5]

Maybe it's just me then bloody body!! Literally lol

Yes we are trying, dh has been taking what I give him so I am going with that is a yes...

[Plum3]

Yay, that's great!
