Its been a while then lol hehe she's still your baby girl though

Oook, 10dpo and i found a total of 7 tests that i have to play with lol. I v.rarely test before AF is due but im so impatient this month. My temps just went higher than ever. This year LP has been 13 or 11 days. One possible 7 days but not sure + never got a blood test on that one. I cant decide if i should POAS or not?... although wont be able to wait much longer lol... oh the dilema's we go through :rotfl:

Good luck Nicki *crosses fingers*

Yes it has:o

While I don't envy you all going through this now as I know how it takes over your life and how stressful it is, the positives are that drugs/techniques/knowledge has moved on to make fertility treatment more sucessful. You are also able to access a support network via the internet. I don't know about you lot but I kept my treatment a secret with just my OH and myself knowing about it. It was the only way I could cope but to post and talk to others in the same position anonymously would have been a great help. The downside to the internet is sometimes it gives you too much information!

Good luck to you all.

:sad: Unfortunately we were BFN this morning. Thanks for all the good wishes.

AF not yet here, but I guess will make an appearance today or tomorrow. OH has gone off to work looking glum, and we're going to have a chat tonight as to where to go from here. In the meantime I've got a mountain of housework to try to take my mind off things.

Yes, we've gone through so much we are no longer telling anyone about our TTC struggles. Everyone expects that we have given up by now and we don't need any negativity. I much prefer posting online where i can focus on the here and now, rather than have to dwell over what we have been through to get here. It's great to come across people who have been trying for a long time, in real life we don't know anyone who's had any problems conceiving. I agree the internet has conflicting info over most subjects, so i stick to journals, textbooks and doctors advice when it comes to something as important as TTC!

((hugs)) im so sorry hun. How disappointing. Remember you are never out till AF is here! To cheer myself up i sometimes look at the relevant charts on fertilityfriend, showing that pregnancy is still possible and common in X,Y,Z situation.

I always clean when im anxious about anything or need my mind taken off things. No wonder we have such a tidy house LOL

OH Nicki,I'm so sorry,I Had such "a good feeling" about your treatment, I really did think that you'd be "graduating" from this thread.

This roller coaster,really is difficult sometimes,isn't it ? I don't think that anybody can understand what you go through,unless they've been there.

The media portrays fertility treatment as a "modern miracle" but in reality it isn't always as simple as that(as we all well know !) - but,people do get pregnant against the odds,and for most of us here, our dream will eventually come true,so don't give up,shed a few tears,take a deep breath,and when you are ready "plot your next move" Until then,take care and have a virtual Hug from me.

Its one of the best 'bad' habits to have Although im always little shocked when i hear myself moaning at DH to not leave coffee cups lying around, or for eating in the bedroom.. or lots of other things... i fear im turning into my mother :eek: . She was OCD about cleaning so i try to remember how horrible it was to not be able to relax in your own home... i'm sure having a baby/toddler will teach me to 'enjoy' the mess lol

I tested, its a snow white BFN, not even an imaginary line to squint over lol. If she's not here i will test again next Monday in time to thank the reflexologist (only new thing we're doing). Ughh i want this so bad, i dont think i can face another Christmas with just losses and BFN to show for it.
