Mine that I have right now is a peice of...well you get what I mean. Hee Hee Hee. I quess we are supposed to wait til the next cycle to switch to a new thermometre...Right?

Probably, but seeing is how I'm on like day 39 and no signs of a new one starting any time... and since I'm thinking my batteries are dying in my old one anyway, I think I'll take the risk and start with it as soon as it arrives. Maybe I'll take it with both and see if they differ. Good luck with yours, and be careful on Ebay... it's very addictive! I know all too well! :)

thanks.

Good Morning Ladies, Well it looks like it is going to be a better day here in Regina Canada. The last 2 days have been rainy and soooo humid. Did anybody notice on Idol last night that Taylor Hicks was singing with Toni Braxton....MY dh calls it the Braxton-Hicks duet. hehehehehehehe Well on less funny note...there was a murder in Regina area last weekend (canadian may long weekend) and they released more info. in the paper today...it is so sad... the guy that died was only 19 and he was killed (stabbed) because his ex and he were having an arguement and she slapped him and he slapped her back. Some other guy took offence to him slapping her and ended up stabbing him. The ex had been with the deceased for a long time before they split...sooooo sad...He died in her arms...she apparently babysits for neighbours down our block and she told them how guilty she feels for slapping him and then him getting killed....Just needed to tell someone...Stupid high school bush parties...glad I never got tied up in those. On happier news I feel great today...Kinda giddy actually. Don't know why just think it will be a good day. TTYL

Hi Shauna. Guess it's you and I out here alone for a while, huh? That's so funny about the Braxton-Hicks, I watched it and it never even ocurred to me! I love that! And can I just say, I'm so excited to hear that someone else actually watched! No one here at work seems to have, and I LOVED the show. As for the stabbing, that's really sad. And especially being so close to home, it must make it that much worse. By the way, maybe it's a canadian thing, I don't know, but what is a "bush" party?

 

Shauna - May 25

A bush party is when I bunch of kids go out to an area usually a 'bush' area and drink til you cant drink anymore. In this past weekends case one set of kids rented a farm lot and some other kids came that were not supposed to be there...bad things happen. Oh and the seller for my BBT wants another $6.50 for shipping...how do I give it to him now? I already sent $3.50 like it said but now he needs/wants more.

 

stepmommel - May 25

WHAT? I've never heard of that. Why is he wanting more? And how did he tell you that, did he email you to say tht $3.50 wasn't enough? That doesn't make sense. You shouldn't have to pay any more than what you originally paid! I'll have to see if he's expecting the same from me... I'll keep you posted.

 

stepmommel - May 25

Nope, he hasn't requested anything more from me. That is so odd! Did he give you a reason? Maybe it's because you're in Canada, but I still don't think you have to pay more...

^i^ ^i^ ^i^ Those are supposed to be angels, can you tell? Wow what a busy week I've had. First, I have been teaching everyday, which is excellent because there is not a lot of school left, I also started my summer job with the city's swimming pools this week as well. SO I have been going from one job to the next. Thank God I did not get a call today because I have to work tonight. I started clomid on day 4 which was wed. I am trying something different. I have read that it has woorked for others, so I hope it works for me. I have 10 pills at 50mgs. Instead of taking 100mgs for 5 days, I'm going to take 50 mgs for 10 days. Everyone that did this has gotten pg, so I don't see any harm in trying. I know it is a prescription drug and I should only take it how it was prescribed, but I can't get in to my dr until June 15 and by then I could already be pg. At least he will be able to tell me if I am ovulating or not. How is everyone else doing? I'm you ladies found your thermometer, I hope they work out for you. Shauna have a safe trip to Edmonton. We are going there this summer. It's too bad you weren't there last night for the hockey game. Taylor, my dh is a huge Oiler fan, so you can only imagine the excitement and then let down of yesterdays game. Stepmommel, what day are you on again? I know we are really close. Don't you go to the dr early next week? I hope everyone has a good weekend. Tomorrow is my 6th wedding anniversary, so I don't know if I'll be on here or not. Take care! Elena, how are you doing?

I'm on CD41 today. It's been a long freakin' cycle, that's for sure! But I'm still holding out hope that my appt on Tuesday the 30th will be what it was supposed to have been two weeks ago, so maybe the wait is coming to an end. I've not ever heard of taking the Clomid like that (but then I don't know a lot about it in the first place) but it sure sounds promissing! Keep us posted as to how it works for you. Where did you hear about taking it that way? And were there a lot of people who tried it like that?

 

Shauna - May 26

stepmommel: I got email today that my BBT is on its way. Yeh!!! CD41??? Yikes I thought my 33 was bad last month...You must be just begging for AF to arrive now...Funny how we do that...tell her to go away and then when we know shes a comin' then we beg for her to show herself : ) any ways I will talk to you later.

 

stepmommel - May 26

Yep. 41 days! But I looked back at my old charts and I actually went like 65 days a few months back, so 41 is nothing! I don't think AF is going to show without the help of Provera like last time. Which is 1/2 the reason I'm so anxious for Tuesday's doctor's appt! The other 1/2 is because this is the doc that had mentioned starting me on Clomid if I wasn't O'ing which my charts basically prove I'm not. So... yes, it is funny (not really) how we sometimes want her, sometimes don't! But having AF is even worse knowing you're not o'ing, don't you think? Anyway, I'm trying to keep positive and I'm hoping this doctor's appt will be the change I've been needing.

 

stepmommel - May 26

Oh, I forgot to tell you, I got that same email today saying that the thermometer is on its way. Did you end up having to pay more shipping?

 

Shauna - May 26

Hi again. Yes I did have to pay more S/H. Oh well, I know it probably does cost him that much to send it. It better be packaged nicely so that everybody on the block doesn't know what it is...not that I should be ashamed or anything. Just waiting on the washer again. I am going to Edmonton tomorrow morning so I am laundering up some clothes. TTFN

OMG- I was gone the whole weekend and nobody was talking?! Anyways...I am CD20 today and I feel really great after my 'holiday'. Holy hell Shawna...What is going on with the construction in Saskatoon??? It took me 25 minutes to get from 8th and circle to Miller and circle on Friday night.!!!??...They are doing some sort of bridge widening or something. Crazy!!! Well not much going on with me... took the kids to the disney store and to Galaxy land ( big indoor amusement park in a mall). They loved it. DH cleaned the house in his style...put everything away and not vacuum or sweep and expect me to be excited about it. He did well with what he did but there was a path of muddy shoe prints from the front door to my room (DH forgot his wallet in there and walked through with muddy shoes on). That was Sunday morning and I came home Sunday night...sick!!! I realized that I really need to keep caught up on my old city of Saskatoon...so much is changing and heard about the schools changing...weird stuff. I guess i should go to visit more often. Any way now I am just blah blah blahing. TTYL.

 

stepmommel - May 29

I know what you mean Shauna! I'm starting to think we've been abandoned! :) I'd have been here sooner but our computer was being repaired and I wasn't at work to use that one. Well, I woke up this morning with quite a suprise... seems AF may have come for a visit after all! It's ONLY CD44! It may just be spotting but I usually do that a day or so before. Not sure because I don't have ANY sypmtoms like cramps or anything else I usually get as a warning, so I'm somewhat confused. Good news is my doc appt with the one I LIKE is tomorrow, so it may all be in good timing after all. I'm hoping the new thermometer might be here tomorrow too. What a day full of things to look forward to, huh? Hope you feel better... I too woke up sick two days ago and am feeling miserable right about now. Anyway, hope everyone else comes back and chats again soon. Have a great day all of you!
