CD14 for me. EC+WCM on it's way so expecting a peak on CBFM any day now. Not that it makes a shiny bit of difference. Haven't DTD in a month....and if DH has anything to do with it it will be even longer.
I'm so wound up and feel so unloved. Damn work stress or the excuse of it anyhow.
I feel blue0 -

Big (((HUGS))) available if you need them!!
I'm feeling better today (sorry about the downer yest)
RachaelC - I know exactly how you feel! Sick to the back teeth of it. Ive got to the point now where i tell people im not having them :rotfl: the look on their faces!
Getting the opposite issue with FIL and SIL - they keep commenting that they dont think we should have any because of the impact it would have on their lives :eek: !!!!!!!! FIL told DH that he cant be expected to look after any LO of ours (but he doesnt mind doing it for anyone else!) and DH wonders why i dont get on with them
Oh well need to pretend to do a bit of work :cool: off after today until Tueday. Got loads to do at home but rather that than be here :rotfl:
Sticky baby dust to all xxxxxx0 -
Feeling human today, off work again though as still infectious.
I'm sorry people are making you feel bad Lemon. I hope you get some results at the doctors.
I actually work at a small company, we've outsourced our HR which gives us online monitoring and I print the reports off each month so I get to see where everyone is at. I reckon I'll be at about 200 after this bout *winces*
Bradford scores are ok as a flag for patterns and issues, the problems come when companies follow them religiously without applying a bit of common sense. I've tended to have single days off which means I have a worse score than someone who has had a few sets of a week off, despite the fact I'm less disruptive to the business. Luckily my Boss is cool and recognises this.Oh no! Good thing you were not pg;)0 -
Dont let the Dr's make you feel bad Lemon, you have every right to stand up for yourself..they're there to help you, not make you feel small x
Fanta - really sorry you're feeling so down. I know it sounds stupid but when was the last time you sat down with hubby and had a real heart to heart about everything?
Glad you're feeling perkier today GTS - nice that you've got a few extra days off too
CD17 - nothing to report..just hoping this may be my lucky month (again!)
OH is going to be working most of the coming BH weekend. I was meant to be going to my brother in law's 40th on saturday in Bristol, but it's going to be full to the rafters of babies/kids/pregnant women, so I've declined. I just dont feel up to it at the moment. My sister was fine about it once I'd explained. I love my little nephew to death, but dont think I'm quite ready for back to back baby-talk with loads of kids around just yet
. It wouldn't have been so bad if OH could come with me, but I fear it may be a 'lonely' affair for me.
So seeing my best mate for dinner on saturday night instead which'll be nice.Metranil dreams of becoming a neon,You don't even take him seriously,How am I going to get to heaven?,When I'm just balanced so precariously..0 -

unfortunately this contest is one i would win hands down, and it's not one i'd like to win, now one for a months holiday all expenses paid in Oz would be one i'd like to win
determined to try and smile me way off this negative mental attitude. Would be so much easier if i didn't have to go to work but that's not an option either, so i shall try and drag myself up kicking and screaming.0 -

Hi There Ladies
i just thought I would pop on and intorduce myself, although not new to TTC in any way shape or form I am new to this thread! So I suppose a little background would be useful.
Hubby and I have been together for 9 years this year and have been TTC for around 7 of them! I know its a long time. So let me explain...................... Firslty and probably the most important factor (according to my previous docs and the reason why no investigations ever took place) is that I am overweight. I have a current BMI of 43.56. This apparently is enough to let me suffer with no explinations. Also my husband is overweight too. Lack of exercise and too big portion sizes have lead to this. I am not stupid I understand that loosing this weight could only be a step in the right direction but then its a vicious circle of depression because of no help, no help because of the weight, depression because of the weight.......... well you see where I am going with this one
So here I am years down the line and I am finally getting some answers, the best thing I ever did was change doctors, after my first visit with him he was sending me for tests for PCOS! I had all the usual sysmptom, thick black hair growing on the belly, face etc, AF which seemed to like living with me, at the moment I have had the same AF/bleed since before Christmas, although I think I know when I have a proper AF, all other times its like constant spotting, trouble loosing weight.
So the answer is YES I have PCOS! Wonderful just a little hurdle that hopefully could be overcome. So we were on the right track, but no mother nature decided another kick in the teeth was required as hubby was sent for tests which came back as low sperm quality, I have no idea if this means his swimmers........well arnt swimming at all or if its due to heatlh/lifestyle or somethignwe can not change. We have a meeting with the doc on Fri afternoon to find out what the next step is for us!
Now in the time I have been TTC I have seen a lot of children join the family and my friends lives and enough is enough! I want that to be me. Hubby and I have spoken and I am t be weighed on Friday by the doctor and ALL weightloss documented! I want them to see I am making an effort to loose the dreaded pounds! Home cooked meals, less in portion sizes snacking on fruit instead of the usual cakes and chocolate, and we have agreed on an hours walk/cycle or swim a day, if they are going to take me seriously then I willl do everything in my power to loose it.
So there we have it, will be nice getting to know you all and seeing you all progress to the Having a baby bus soon.
