  • Hi Ladies,

    (((HUGS))) Jules - is so frustrating waiting for everything to right itself

    GG - 7 times in 4 days!! I thought I was doing well with every other day this month! Your poor OH will need recuperation time after your marathon!!

    ((HUGS)) Debs I know exactly what you mean. I have had to bite my tongue when some of my friends have moaned about the aches and pains of their pregnancies. What I would give to still be pregnant.

    Fingers crossed Puzzled that AF does not appear

    Good luck Ali for your driving test - don't envy you at all I hated mine.

    WW - Good luck for OH's test results, when are you due to test?

    I am on CD15 and had my 3rd high on CBFM, hoping for my peak tomorrow. Not sure what has happened to my cycle though as did have 27 day cycle pre m/c and then my first cycle after was 27 days. Last cycle was 31 and this one looks like it is heading that way from my CBFM readings. So pleased I have got my monitor as would have been concentrated our efforts at the start of the week if I hadn't been aware. Am hoping that being more aware will make the difference this month. Am finding myself getting more upset with each AF now.

    I hadn't told DH about my CBFM as I have always wanted him not to feel that he is a sperm donor but he saw it on holiday and asked and he is now really interested! He is expecting me to jump him when I get a peak!

    Think it was Jen that asked about my hols - We did as little as possible! We spent 3 nights in Kuala Lumpur and 10 nights in Langkawi and had some much needed time relaxing on our own. I don't think we had realised how much the wedding and miscarriage had taken out of us. It was wonderful to just sleep and read books. We did do a cookery course and some sightseeing but the emphasis was definitely on relaxing!

    Sorry this has turned into a missive!!

    Evening ladies! Hope everyone is ok!!

    CD20 for me and I'm getting excited for testing Friday (but not too excited) :o Apart from blowing off every five seconds:eek:, I haven't had any SSing today..! Weird for me as normally I am the other way before AF!

    I am going on a stop smoking course tomorrow but only a few people know :o I REALLY hope it works and it will be a positive for me if it does!

    Will catch up on posts tomorrow afternoon. I keep getting excited every time I log on looking for our first bfp this month!!! PMA, PMA, PMA!!! :j

    STICKY BABY DUST TO ALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!
    Que Sera, Sera

    Not testing, as we didn't DTD at right time :( Would be a minor miracle if the swimmers survived 5 or 6 days waiting for my egg. Just waiting for AF so we can begin the next cycle.

    Sounds like you had a lovely honeymoon GEG :D

    I can't believe we're a third of the way through November and not a single BFP :eek:

    I think there's going to be loads of them in the middle of the month though to make up, just look at that testing list! :eek:

    Really pleased to hear your DH has done his test now, thats a great step in the right direction! :jHope the results are good, or even better you are pg before you get them ;)

    Hi ladies. I've been so busy that I've not caught up yet! Totally lame! So, tomorrow eve I've already booked DH to cook dinner so I get a decent chance to read back. So tomorrow, please don't chat tooooooooo much otherwise I'll have no hope.

    We have a tester tomoz don't we? Good luck to whichever lady it is.

    As for me, as the days and hours go on, the less chance I feel I have. I know I'm not even at test time but I'm experiencing every AF symptom going (including a massive blow out at the household tonight!). I feel that this last month was my best chance so far with opk results and well rimed BDing. Oh well, at least I'm moving forward by getting my first pos opk!

    This is cycle 7 and given my age (31) I think the average is 9 months of ttc before getting a bfp.

    Lots and lots of happy vibes and fertile thoughts. SbdtA x

    Af arrived chez phunkles so cd1 now (fancy taking me off the testing list next time you update please QQ)
    after an uncharacteristically short month :| cd26 (so maybe that opk was right when it went slightly darker on like cd8 or whenever it was) (would move and look but im hotwater bottled up and dont want to move lol)

    will read back in a minute :)
    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

    Im not even going to comment on how many times me and oh get to bd each month :o I think the phrase feast or famine definately applies anyway - although can be slightly embarassing when being late meeting up with people who then ask oh have you had a busy day? erm sheepish looks all round

    LittleAngel - I think the world is falling out of mine currently but what you described is how I felt all yesterday and this morning

    PortsmouthAli - good luck with your test shush

    QQ - follicleystuff vibes (sorry I cant think of the technical thing)

    WonderWomble - I may have sent oh a link to the sperm analysis thing on amazon last night which led to a slight arguement - at 3am just what I needed (may send him a nice sorry text in a bit actually thinking about it)

    I read somewhere (I think it was laydeees magazine on the train actually) that it takes the average couple a year to get a bfp?? (using the logic of I see my oh for one of four weeks a month) I reckon Ill still be here in 3 years time

    Me and oh stopped using protection just over a year ago and nothing....
