    Hi all, haven't been on for a while so have lost the original TTC thread amongst all the others!! First things first:

    Welcome all newbies :hello:
    Congrats to those that have their BFPs :j :T :beer:

    :grouphug: to those that need them

    I'm now on CD10/month 2/round 2 (for those that don't know, was TTC for about 8 months before having to go on injections to control adenomyosis pain), so keeping fingers crossed something happens soon.

    Although as someone else mentioned before, I'm a bit torn between wanting to be PG but not wanting to be as I don't want to be humungous for my wedding in August.

    Felt a bit fed up over the weekend as cousin announced that his gf was preggers (they weren't trying and he never wanted another one anyway :mad: ) but I'm over the worst of that now!

    Enough rambling for now, better go and do some work :A

    I posted this on another thread, but thought I'll share with you too, what sort of roller-coaster ttc is... (for those who joined lately, this is my cycle 14 of trying...)

    First yesterday, I was nearly crying in the office, when after talking to my OH on the phone and complaining that I am very hungry 5 minutes after lunch, he said I might be eating for 2. In the evening he got a lecture never say that again.

    Then this morning I woke with a happy grin on my face. I woke up with the sore nipple... How odd are we, we wake up in pain and that makes us happy??!!!! I know, it means nothing until I get BFP, and do get sore boobs occasionally, not every month, but as I said before, I have a hope. I think I am worked up so much now, that when AF (not if, when!), I will be a broken person and will need to be given sedatives!!!!! Still, that doesn't stop me hoping that this is the magical month...

    No wonder men can't get us! I can't understand myself!!!!

    Little Pickle, thanks for clarifying - I think maybe we should have a pact on this thread that we shouldnt have to apologise for TMI as frankly this TTC is a messy business and it involves bodily functions and information that we wouldnt normally discuss in polite conversation!

    ginvzt - I know just what you mean, isnt it mad that all we crave is what is essentially a parasite living inside our bodies for 9 months to then come out with a large degree of pain and then to cause us angst for the next 18 years plus?!!? I cant think of anything better myself!! x

    Only 18 years? You are optimistic!
    Both my brother (27) and sister (23) live at home and my mum is always complaining about them to me. My OH's brother (29) still lives at home, but he seems to get along with his mum so well, that instead of going on holidays with his girlfriend (ok, she couldn't go at the last minute) he went with his mum! And I have friend (28) still living at home in a single bedroom (and renting a house with boyfriend, only staying with him few days a week) and her brother (33+) still living at home as well!!!!!

    Ok, TMI warning!!!!!

    Just been to the loo and got some cm streaked with blood. Of course, it could be just the sign that AF is going to start any time no, but I nearly started jumping with joy that it could be implantation bleed! My nipples also looked different this morning, a bit bigger around, so who knows. I better get lots of mint tea for when AF arrives, as I will be inconsolable... Probably tomorrow!

    I am in two minds - I think AF is coming - I have been having some pains and niggles over the last few days, but... I don't care about tomorrow, today I *might* be pregnant!!!! Left work early and have been dancing around the house before OH comes home

    Don't wanna bring this thread down but my m/c thread was locked, so can anyone who has had a miscarriage tell me if it's normal for the bleeding to start up again after a few days not having stopped? And if so, how long it might go on for? My m/c began on 3 October and I bled until 11 October and now it has started again today. :( Thought I might ovulate this w/e but probably not now? We really want to try again as soon as possible.

    Just popping in to say it wasn't good news today. Went off to work feeling happy and absolutely sure that I was pg, but af has arrived. Spent the rest of the day fighting back tears, and refused to hug DH when I got in as I won't stop if I start.

    Decided I don't want to take a break. I need to keep trying. I just don't understand how come I had all those symptoms and non-symptoms. Feels like my body is playing some very cruel tricks on me.

    Only good thing is that a 28 day cycle is what I needed to have a full 14 day luteal phase, based on the OV sticks, so at least I do have something positive to take from this.

    Going now, as I need to clear my head and try to chill out for a bit.

    Good luck everyone.
