    Your next AF should be normal, my first was pretty unpleasant and heavy.

    I know what you mean. Do you think we'll ever be mummies?:o

    Oh that's very pretty:) I'd like something like that, white cot, Moses basket, white changing table and perhaps a rocking chair:happyhear

    After my MC in Aug, my cycles has been regular 28 - 31 days but my last cycle was 45 days long:shocked: I ov'd late, luteal phase was normal 14 - 15 days. I don't know why I ov'd late, perhaps it may have been because I wanted to ov so much re ttc:o

    I kept a diary of my cycles from the beginning, and having looked at that, I had 42 and 43 day cycles earlier in 2009, I can't find older diaries, but have one from 1998, and there were few 40+ day cycles, so it may not be my age:o

    People ov late all the time, so that may be it. Do you chart temps?

    Hmm, could be late ov I suppose. Damn - we should have carried on BD longer! That'll teach me. I didn't temp chart last month (just started the last week). I was so sure based on my CM that I ov'd on the 11th Feb, CD 15. Or at worst CD 17, as that day was quite watery, but not as stretchy as CD15. Since then I've had CM every day, usually quite creamy, but varying in amounts, but none watery/EW.

    @stef240377 - that's good news.

    @fairydiamond - so sorry to hear you been trying so long :( Have you been charting or anything?

    Yeah, but it is almost impossible. I have PCOS and virtually no periods. We're currently going through the whole faff about at the hospital. I've had scans, test on my fallopian tubes, we are hopefully starting clomid next month so we will see how that goes.

    I have to admit I find the whole CM thing a bit of a mindfield.

    Think mine was stretchy yesterday, but then I dont really have anything to compare it to IFSWIM!

    CD13 for me today, will be having another go with the ov test this evening, and try to BD again although I have a shocking cold at the moment and it's really the last thing I feel like doing after a long day at work!

    If it's real EWCM you should be able to put it between thumb and forefinger and as you pull apart it should stretch for a few cms I think. When it's just watery, but not EW I find it breaks during that test almost immediately.

    Is strangley looking forward to bed time routine tonight of necking the old Clomid. By this evening it will be cd2. The worries of the past few months of shall i or shalnt i bother with clomid on month 1 post mc are out the window. Have spent too long out the game and want to continue.

    Things are still a little tense given my sons recent adventures but i believe i have contacted every organisation going to get him the help he needs. If that continues to fall on deaf ears at least i know i have tried my very best and what is happening is not a reslut of my crappy parenting - i have two others who are fine just struggling with ds1.

    That is a relief to hear this one started of fine CD1 & CD2 but last night & today CD3 is really heavy.:(

    I am still happy to be back on the TTC road again :D

    DH is on full alert :rotfl:I am due to OV when we are on a weekend away just the two of us so that should be good ;)

    We will see what the stork has in mind for us. I am a firm believer that all things happen for a reason (even if you don't think it @ the time) looking back all things do.........:)

    Hope the interview went well Sam x

    Love Hugs & baby dust of the sticky variety to all you wonderful ladies xoxo :A
    If you can think it........it will happen

    We've been trying for 3 years for a baby. The pain gets unbearable sometimes. Sometimes I feel like it will never happen. We have a hole in our hearts.

    Hi fairydiamond, sorry you're having to through this, I've been trying nearly a year now, and even that seems like forever. Hopefully the hospital can help you.

    I went for my CD 2 blood test today (actually on CD 3 but close enough), and the nurse said she'd been through the same thing. Back in those days apparently you had to wait 4 years for referral to a fertility specialist, and on the day of her referral - she got a BFP!
    Proud to be a moneysaver! :cool:

    Hello ladies

    Yay - to those who got their AF that wanted them and hugs fot those that got it and didn't.
    Some serious ss'ing going on here. I'm getting aches in womb area, not like AF pains but it feels really 'heavy' for want of a better word. Like I am carrying a chunk of lead in there, also I am beginning to feel damp 'down there' as if AF has come but when I got to loo there's nothing there.
    Also felt really sick when I woke up yesterday which I put down to the bit of vino I had on saturday night but was like it again this morning. Even thought I might have to pull over car on way to work to puke but then it wore off me...hhmm. I'm getting my hopes up, please someone slap me down. I'm sure i wouldn't be getting MS this soon.

    It's CD26 for me and AF not due til saturday, however i'm in docs tomorrow for a smear. Not sure if I should do a test to be on the safe side tomorrow morning cos i'm pretty sure I shouldn't be having a smear if I am pg.

    Hmm, probably worrying about nothing. Love to all...x

    consider yourself slapped! But in a nice way of course :)

    I want to tell you to try and forget all about it until after your period is due, but I know what I'm like and wouldn't listen. If I were you I'd prob cancel and rearrange smear for a time after period before ovulation just in case. Maybe give the docs a call and find out what they think?

    I'm bored. More people post please. I need more to read.

    @Maddie, what is a CD2 test for?
