Hey all, this is the first month i am charting along with using Clear Blue Easy Fertility Monitor. I am on cd 11 and already getting a high from the monitor. My issue is with the temping and charting. it seems that my temperature seems to fluctuate more than usual. I know in the case of last night and this morning, i slept awful and was awake and irriatated before the alarm went off and temped. I think it is actually causing me to stress about this...
1. Does anyone have temperatures that seems to fluctuate more than usual but still are able to see when they ovulate?
2. If the above was true and you became prego, did your temps after O stay up consistently?
3. Any advice on how to not get stressed over temping and charting?Thanks so much!

My sister had a baby 4 weeks ago and had unprotected sex with her partner. She hasnt had a period yet but am sure you can get pregnant without having one is this right?
My friend got pregnant 2 mths after having her first but is it to early for my sis to get pregnant again? Am i over reacting?

Me & hubby have decided its time we tried for a baby. Ive just turned 29 but dealing with the birth of a child and then being responsible for it for the rest of my life freaks me out so much!
Can i cope with pregnancy? Birth? caring for the child? dealing with what life throws at me? those little emergency panics that parents have when something happens to a child?
Did anyone else feel this way before having their child?

I am only three days late so maybe I am just not producing enough hormone yet but at what point do I give up? I would like to hear from any health proffesionals out there who could tell me how long from conception does the egg implant and if it takes a while would that mean that hcg levels could be still low for the first few days. I should mention that on the four occasions that I have been pregnant I have always done home tests and only ever had faint lines. One of the tests I have done in the last few days had a faint second line but it was after the ten minutes they tell you to wait. I would appreciate peoples opinions on whether I should carry on with the tests for a few more days and also story's from anyone who has had a number of negative results for the first few days after a missed peiod and then finally a positive. Thanks

I went to a get-together recently, and this girl that is pregnant kept stroking her belly, even though she is only about 4 weeks along. I felt like she was just craving attention and wanted people to ask her about the pregnancy...and I remember seeing Gwen Stefani on TV getting interviewed at an awards show when she was pregnant...the interviewer asked her all about it...they talked for a while...then he tried to move on to her tour and her album. She kept bringing the subject back around to her pregnancy, kind of repeating herself. I am always friendly to these girls, asking them questions about how they are doing...but they never want to move on.....they just want to keep talking about themselves....am I missing something?
