    CD1 for me please QQ. Had a feeling it was coming, still a bit dissapointed, I know we did everything at the right time (several times at the right time in fact!) so I just accept it's not an exact science. AF was even so eager she came a day early, making this a 26 day cycle.

    10DPO is way too early:o

    Bit concerned by this tbh as it seems I only have a 11 day luteal phase - should I be worried?

    I have a question for those like me who are trying to have their first child.

    I was just wondering if anyone had like a childfree bucket list – the things you’d like to do whilst you can before a baby comes along.

    Now I know having a child doesn’t mean your life is over and you can never do anything for yourself but I think it’s fair to say that having a child changes your life and that you need to make some sacrifices – both time and money wise.

    For example in our situation we will not have a lot of spare money when we have a baby and as such will not be able to afford to do certain things. Now this is not a problem as we want a baby but I’ve been thinking about getting things done now whilst we can.

    Just made me wonder if others have a list of things they want to do / or have already done.

    I’ve had some ideas and they’re things like go on an all inclusive holiday, overcome my fear of spiders (there’s courses you can go on), complete my work studies and generally enjoy more nights out :)

    Ib have a day Zero 101 things list, but a lot of them are just 'want to do' not nessisarily before a child. The big ones are:

    Wanted to get married (done, last September)
    Want to go to New York (8 Days for our first anniversary)
    Want to clear our debt... again (hopefully by March 2011)
    Want to start the business (launch date put back from 1st July to probably mid September :()
    Would like to return to Dubai (depends how long trying takes)
    Would like DH to be in a better job (he's trying!)
    Would like all the improvements on our house finished (just need money to do it!)

    Still feeling really sick and dizzy, wondering if I should see a doctor as its clearly not pg symptoms.

    I think Agnus Castus is good for helping to lengthen LP.

    I think if you are worried ten you should maybe speak to your GP.

    Kaemi - I believe that healthy LP's range between 10 and 16 days, so 11 seems just fine. :)

    If you're feeling sick and dizzy, you could have an ear infection or virus. I had one before, it was bleeding awful! Get down the docs and get checked out my dear.

    And ((HUGS)) for the low PMA. Mmmm, something funny/happy....ohh random. You know short stay parking areas, or pick up parking areas (really just for picking up and dropping people off)? Guess what they are called here in the Netherlands?

    Kiss & Ride!

    Had me puzzled for a while, as I kept seeing the sign and thinking '!!!!!!???'. Is this a new service offered by the local prostitutes for the business man on the go? lol

    HTH xx

    :rotfl:That's fab! Made me giggle at my desk at work :)

    Yay! MISSION accomplished! :D

    I'm going to have to take a picture of the sign tonight. I feel it is Facebook worthy! :rotfl:

    The other week I saw a sign for 'Ria's Mens Club' in Amsterdam. Happens to be my SIL's name, so it made me chuckle and I text her about it. She tells me she has a little sideline going on! :rotfl::rotfl:

    So is that a reasonably medical theory, do we think? Anyone know?
    Did AF turn up QQ?

    :rotfl: Forgot about that!

    Kaemi sorry about CD1, going seeing the doc about your symptoms sounds like a good idea :o

    Emsbet good luck re ov etc :)



    No spotting today, so gonna start the OPKs again and try and treat this as a new cycle. Can you put me back to "awaiting ov" pls? My temps are just dropping and dropping so even if I did ov there's no way I'm preg :o

    PMA for the day : I had my gall bladder scan this morning and she couldn't see anything wrong, no stones, nothing in the kidneys or the common bile duct, so it looks like no op for me :D

    Oh hello!

    Huge congrats to BFPs!

    Been wondering what happened to Smash? Anyone know?

    I'm on CD 27 and according to an educated guess (CM and opk) I think I'm 15dpo give or take. I'm symptomless and have had 2 bfns, one was yesterday and one the day before so I'm fairly sure I'm out this cycle though it's equally possible I am out with my dates.. I've enjoyed a break from temping but will begin again at cd1!

    Not going to test now unless I go until the weekend without af! Fed up of scrutinising blank spaces for merest hint of a line!

    SBDTA!!!!!

    I haven't seen her for a while. Maybe she went over to GG's forum?
