    GFH you are right. It seems trivial to say these things happen for a reason, but unfortunately they do.

    sending (((hugs)))) to grateful, not much i can say which will make anything better.


    question for the forum, can i ask anyone who's charting with FF what the circles around the dots for your reading mean. I've got circles around today and yesterday's readings and i'm not sure what it means. thanks

    MV the way I am trying to look at it, and this is just for me, not to trivialise it for anyone else, is that I would rather the sonographer got "that face" at 12 weeks than at 20 weeks.
    Even worse, to lose a baby at birth or after birth:(

    Hello,

    I couldn't find the thread I was on about a year ago so I thought I briefly pop in here as it seems such a nice and supportive group.
    Quick intro: I'm 32 and we started TTC for our first in October 2008. I fell pregnant instantly but unfortunately lost it in February last year. Have been sort of trying since (i.e. not that seriously i.e. more like not trying not to fall pregnant IYKWIM as we didn't want to stress too much). Nothing so far. But it's getting to me now. So I have a question if anyone else experienced this. I was always like clockwork 28 days cycles even straight after the miscarriage but the last few months since christmas my cycles got shorter. At first down to 26 days now this month it was only 23. Could it just be that I'm stressing to much and my hormones are out of balance or sth like that?

    Thank you very much, any answers are really appreciated

    Could be.
    Lemon Tree said taking Agnus Castus can regulate AF, worth a try? Having read up on it, one shouldn't take it past ov since it may cause mc. It would be safer not to ttc for a month or so until you get the cycle back to normal, then stop taking AC while ttc.
  • Morning ladies. Hope you all enjoy the sunshine. Glorious day here in London.

    CD27 - no sign of AF yet, but had some coloured cm yesterday so she'll be here later today/tomorrow I expect.

    I ordered a CBFM from Amazon yesterday + the sticks. It all came to £87 with p/p, which is a hell of a lot but with the monitor itself being £100 on its own in Boots, it seemed like a decent deal.

    Feeling a bit down as usual at having got another BFN yesterday, but it's my Birthday today, the sun is shining and my family are coming over later, so focusing on the good things in my life :)

    Have a good day ladies.

    Grateful, thinking of you love. xx

    Hi thriftylass. I've noticed changes in my cycle this year -the opposite to you though - my cycle has gotten longer. Agnus Castus was really good and balanced out the worst of my PMS too. Another thing to consider is changes around you, with particular reference to other girls. Have you made any new friends or had a new girl near you at work? Women's cycles tend to synchronise so are you maybe sychronising with someone new? I'm also blaming the cold winter. It must have had some effect surely?

    Happy birthday MV. :beer:

    CD 34 here and still no AF signs. No signs of pg though either so guess I'm having another mega cycle.
