January 2012 Chit Chat Thread for TTC Boy

[Hobbermittens]

So, I had a huge jump in temp today, and wondering if it means anything other than I have a sore throat and maybe I'm getting sick? Also, I didn't sleep well, but I have those nights often and it doesn't jump up this much! Could anyone take a look at my chart and see what you think? I'm hoping its not just that I'm about to get sick...
My Ovulation Chart
Other symptoms: I have a bad breakout on my jawline and chin too, which I usually only get a couple of days before AF and I'm only 6dpo! Plus, this is a worse breakout than I've had since I was in my early 20s! Bad, bad!
Plus I still have slight cramping going on, though not as bad as the previous two days. Thought it might be implantation related? FX!

My temps have been in the 98.4's, 98.5's and 98.6's. I don't know if that's a sign of anything, but I hope so! FX for you !

Hobbs, me too. I usually don't get them in the middle, though, just about 11dpo for a few days before. Who knows....don't stress though....you haven't even tested yet and you never know! Many, many women have zero symptoms.

Yahmama, I couldn't tell ya, but sounds like your hormones are kicking with the acne. Do you normally get cramps (ah, er, craps) during your cycle this early? I hope you feel better, though. Not to get your hopes up, but I usually get a little under the weather when early pg due to the immune system being compromised to let the bean implant and do its thing.

THanks! THe thing is my temps are NEVER above 98.3 when I'm not pregnant...the beginning of this cycle you can see where my temps were still high from the chemical. I've charted for the last 6 months and not a single morning temp above 98.3 except for the cycle with the chemical.

No, I usually don't get (craps!) until a couple of days before AF. I got them last month with the chemical and they never went away, so it's actually worrying me a little bit like something could go wrong again...that's one reason I'm worried about possibly getting sick too!

I hear ya. I would just try to beat the cold as much as you can....you know what has helped me avoid any sort of illness this whole fall/winter season? This miracle drink powder stuff called EmergenC. I've used it for years, and it helps so much. You can get it at lots of places....health food stores and vitamin stores all have it. As far as the craps that is a good sign if you normally don't get them, I would say. Try not to worry about another m/c.....I know, easier said than done, and I will be the same way if ever pg again, but having craps again does not mean things will necessarily go in the same direction. When are you testing?

Yes, I have been drinking Emergen-C the past 3 days since I've been feeling like I'm going to get sick! I think it does help A LOT and hopefully it's keeping things from getting worse. My 2 DDs have had bad coughs and runny noses, so I knew it would try to come to me eventually!
I'm going to try to hold of POAS until next Tues, which would be 10dpo. Maybe it would be better to wait until 11, though, since I've never gotten a bfp before then. I'll see how I feel next week...I don't want to waste any hpt's!

Lola - I definitely think we have a new joke but oh the newbies, can you imagine their horror and confusion

Come on now ladies, drop that defeated attitude! Wait for AF to decide it's over!

Off to another mw appt this afternoon, cross your fingers my gbs is negative and he's still head down!

Have fun at your app!!

[TTC5]

Good luck Jen!!

Bec hope the doc can figure out what's up. It's great that he's so on top of your care though, FX for some good news!

FX for Hobber and Lola ... anyone else testing? Soni maybe? I feel like there were a handful of y'all testing on Saturday.
