    Is it wrong that I read everyones posts about using the monitor things and temping and am slightly jealous? :( dont think temping and poas for ov would help as its more a case of Ive got a couple of days workfree hes got a couple of days workfree -me travel and then ahem lots of dtd - so far nothing except for my amazing ability to ss lol
    (i dont have anything to add to peoples comments about cbfm or temping but I do enjoy reading the posts :)
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
    I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together

    I know how you fell since I'm in similar situation.
    But being apart does make one appreciate one another when together:cool:

    I do sometimes wonder if I have priorities right - if I really want a baby, shouldn't I live with OH (relocate or become a housewife)?
    I don't want to lose my job I love, and if I did relocate, I don't know if I can get a job, let alone something that's reasonably paid. Also, to get pregnant immediately after getting a job might be a bit stressful and not fair to the new job. I had serious morning sickness last time, so if I get that, I'd like to take few weeks off...

    And if I was never meant to have a baby, then I'd regret leaving my current job:(

    Good morning everyone. Had an internet free weekend cos the broadband wasn't working, so taken a while to catch up (from work).

    CD9 today, and 'shameless' on the telly tonight, which means probably too tired by 11pm to BD. And DS has decided to change his wake up time from 7:30 to 6:30, so I'm losing an hour's sleep in the morning now - need to try and get to bed earlier if I'm to stand a chance of getting OH interested!
    It doesn't hurt to be optimistic....you can always cry later. :cry:

    You don't get if you don't ask!

    Morning all

    Seems a few of us are feeling a little down and fed up lately :(

    I've got a right sour face on me today. A friend of mine had a baby girl yesterday and is very cute but I am sssssooooo jealous and all the you'll be next and are you broody comments did little to boost my confidence yesterday :(

    Went to bed last night feeling very sorry for myself and have woke up with my head in a mist!

    Aaarrrgggghhhh!!!!!! I want off this rollercoaster!!! Doesn't help that i am SSing like mad and kicking myself for then doing so! :mad:

    Oh well AF due on Sunday so I suppose its not to long until i find out. This has to be the worst week of the cycle.

    Big Hugs to anyone that needs one! Off to have a cuppa to see if that cheers me up :rotfl: what a miserable cow im turning into :p :rotfl:

    Sticky baby dust to all xxxxx

    Orning ladies,

    oh dear, we are all having a tough time. It is such a rollercoaster of emotions isn't it?! I'm getting tired of the 'oh, why don't you have a baby now whilst you're out of work - perfect timing' comments. I just want to scream 'i'm bloody trying you know!!!!!!' - but of course I don't. That's why it's good to have you guys to vent to :)

    not much going on here. CD5 and AF hanging around. And sorry for the tmi, but I think I have piles too! Lol.

    Anyway, the sun is shining today. Wishing you all a lovely day. Hugs and sticky baby dust to all xx

    Morning ladies, well we are all down in the dumps today aren't we?

    One of my closest friends at work has just told me she's been TTC for over a year and had a MC over xmas. I had no idea they were even trying never mind had a MC. I felt awful. I haven't old her i'm trying. Do you think I should? I'd be worried if I fell pg soon how that would make her feel (not that I can see that happening)
    Thoughts welcome?

    Well, after a horrible weekend with OH we have kind of made up. CD 17 for me and according to MMC I'm oving tomorrow so he has promised to come home from work early so we can BD before I have to go to work - oh the romance! I have been having a few twinges today which I'm taking as a good ov sign.
    What CM should I be looking out for to double check I'm oving?

    Going to wait til friday before ringing the docs for his swimmers results.

    Then we go t'egypt next weds so plan to forget about TTC for a few weeks.

    Love to all - lets gets some PMA back in here, May is a great month - 2 bank holidays, all the football finishes and it's my birthday!!!! - It's only round the corner..!..x

    p.s as I've now been off the pill since Feb 09 is it time for me to move to the 12month+ thread?
    I don't feel ready for that yet as we've not been taking it seriously til Jan 10. Hope you don't mind me staying here?

    Morning ladies...sorry there are so many feeling blue at the moment. I echo what others have said, it's a very bumpy ride, but hang on in there and we'll get there girls x

    CD16 for me. CBFM has stopped asking me to POAS so I guess it's the lonnnng wait now. I'm not feeling too confident as we missed my 2nd peak day, but we did BD over the right period, so there's still a chance.

    Stupid question time - if a bloke DTD but really struggles with it, it isnt spontaneous etc etc, could that possibly affect the quality/qty of his sperm?

    I know its a daft question...I'm just wondering if the stressy BD we did on Friday morning (1st peak) and the fact it took an hour to 'get there' so to speak, may have an effect on whether we get there.
