Hi girls,

Can you please check my chart and let me know if you think I had an Implantation Dip today??

Same symptoms as last month so I'm not really holding out too much hope......

TIA

hey Nic, could possibly be! Look at my last chart it did this (however ended badly),

it is implantation!

CharlieBrownGirl · #4 (**permalink**) October 25th, 2009, 05:27 PM

Its looking like it Nic.
Are you feeling anything or spotting?

Thanks girls....

Heaps of cramping - like AF cramps. I didn't have these types of cramps last month so I'm holding out hope, but not getting my hopes too high. I think the thing that brings me back to reality is that I'm still shedding heaps of hair - everyone I know has told me that when you fall pg you don't shed your hair and I always lose heaps of hair generally. I washed my hair this morning and lost the usual amount.......

I'm going to try and hold out to test until next Sunday - 14DPO - depending on what my temps do...

Thanks so much for your input

Until you see what it does tomorrow it's hard to comment really.

If it goes right back up then it's looking good.

Even if it stays down for two days & then goes up after that it can still be good news (I had that happen with my son's pregnancy).

I don't know about the hair loss thing during pregnancy. I lost as much hair during my pregnancy as I did anytime so don't read anything in to that.

Thanks Satya

I had a massive, ginormus spike again this morning... am still getting serious AF cramps and I just don't feel 'right'...

Everyone I know has told me about the hair loss thing - I'll take your story though Satya!!!

Thanks again for your input x

I think its looking really good Elocin, nice big spike this morning, and also the total opposite of what happened on your last ovulatory cycle where your temp dropped. So yup, i reckon it was an implantation dip, and you are experiencing implantation cramps at the moment. And on the hair thing, I've always lost heaps of hair, but when i got pg, i started losing twice as much, and it drove DH mad as my hair was literally all over the house!

Got all my fingers and toes crossed for you hun

Oh really??? I have been watching my amount of hair loss so closely and not getting my hopes up because I'm still losing it... hmmmmmm, I don't think I'll worry about it anymore!!

I already drive DH crazy with my hair loss... gotta love dark brown hair in a white bathroom and on white pillow cases!!

Thanks hun

Hey Nic I can't view your chart atm for some reason, but I saw it yesterday, so if it has jumped right back up then I think that looks very good indeed! Cramping about now is also good! :fingerscrossed: for you x

Oh and also re: the hair loss thing, yeah my hair was looking really thick and nice during preg, but I couldn't have told you when that kicked in, and it is probably unlikely to be such an early sign? So I wouldn't worry about that either!

Elocin · #11 (**permalink**) October 27th, 2009, 07:33 AM

Thanks Smamfa... I had a pretty big temp drop this morning so I'm not sure what's going on there.

Just another question for all of you ladies... how much do you take into consideration the outside temp?? Yesterday morning was REALLY hot and sticky here and I woke up sweating - and had my big temp spike. This morning is cold and wet here and I woke up with no doona on and shivering - and had a temp drop...

I just don't know how seriously to take these last 2 temps...

TIA x

Ohh back up again today....how are you feeling? I really hope this is it for you hun!

Elocin · #13 (**permalink**) October 28th, 2009, 04:00 PM

I'm trying extremely hard not to get my hopes up to be honest... I couldn't get back to sleep this morning after I took my temp just thinking 'is this really it??'

I've got cramps, creamy CM, am bloated, my boobs are killing me and I've noticed some dark veins running through my nips...

I tested last night (

stupidly) and it was neg - but I just keep thinking 'it was only 9DPO and I tested at night time'...

*sigh* So in answer to your question... I am slowly sending myself around the twist...

Manhattan · #14 (**permalink**) October 29th, 2009, 07:19 AM

Oh its still up there! Just been checking out your charts and on your last 2 ovulatory cycles, you had AF by day 9, and its now day 11....all the signs are looking so good

And yes, night time wee is no good, especially so close to implantation. Did you cave and test again this morning?

Elocin · #15 (**permalink**) October 29th, 2009, 08:10 AM

Thanks Manhattan... i'm just not feeling confident - well, I'm telling myself not to feel confident!! I don't actaully have any tests at home, I will by a couple on the way home tomorrow afternoon and try my hardest to hold out for FMU on Saturday... I will be 13dpo then...

I am feeling a 'pressure' in ovary area which I don't think I've had before. AF cramps are actual pain in the same area, but I actually feel like someone is pressing down on the area around my knickers line... I don't know. I've already had a big cry this morning over it all. I just want it to happen, but I'm scared that it will be neg and I'll just have to pick myself up all over again...

Elocin · #16 (**permalink**) October 29th, 2009, 08:45 AM

After all of that I just went to the loo and am spotting so it looks like I'm out for another month... thanks so much for all of your input
