    That's horrid! I had the trots every hour for 3 hours. Fine until the morning and then trotted twice on waking up. Fine for a day then once more the following afternoon. Each time I trotted I had a fever. :-s

    Just had to say this cracked me up, every time i read it i can't stop laughing, All i can picture when you say "trotted" is you trotting on a horse so I find this highly amusing. Just told OH about it but he doesn't seem to think its funny :(:p

    x_charlie_x, do you think you have ov'd on CD23?:j

    I have updated my temp from today and I don't think so. It's gone right down again, doesn't it stay up once you ov?

    It's like a bloomin yoyo my temps...arggh!!!

    I'm now on CD25, my CBFM have been making me test since CD6 and I haven't had a high so I dunno weather to just leave it this month?

    and I dunno whether i'm doing my temps wrong or i'm just not ov'ing?

    Can you tell im still on a downer :(

    Oi young Debs, whats all this older business, I'll have less of that please! Yes I know I'm 40 in 6 weeks and bubs due in June but you don't need to remind me!!

    As the youngster Debs said I do lurk and really hope you get that BFP soon. Don't give up hope and as I think someone said you need to try to be happy in yourself while TTC. I was at my most chilled and de-stressed when I did, despite various things going on. I could have stopped TTC as was facing redundancy - didn't, got pregnant and yes I'm now redundant, but I'm very happy.:)

    Take care of yourselves, happy BD'ing and SBDTA xxx

    *relurks*

    Sorry auld madbird but as QQuaver said you were older than her!!! :p

    Thank you for the advice, that's what I try to do as much as possible not easy with all that life throws at you!!!

    I haven't had much time to get involved in this thread but just wanted to let you know I am pregnant. Only early days but felt a bit guilty as have only been trying since the new year and i know some of you girlies have been trying a while. Was really concerned we would have problems due to my hubby having mumps as a teen but looks like we have been lucky.

    Wishing you all luck for the year ahead
    :TCONGRATULATIONS!!!:T

    Don't feel guilty - it's GREAT news and you *should* feel happy about it! It gives us all hope that it's possible imo :D

    Hi, I haven't posted for ages but heres a little update.
    I was convinced I was pregnant this month, had LOADS of symptoms but it turned out that I wasn't also, I have figured out that my once 28-29 day cycle with a CD14 OV has gone out of the window and appears to be now a 36 day cycle grrrrr.

    I thought AF was going to arrive on tuesday but nothing, on wednesday I had a bit of blood then some brown CM later in the day but nothing since. Took a test and BFN and not even a glimmer of a second line. Went to the doctors yesterday and they did a test and another BFN, they reckon it's too early or I'm not pregnant.

    Funnily enough I have stopped being so sick and dizzy and generally rough so I reckon that maybe some of it was in my head too.

    Am now on CD31 so am awaiting AF to turn up. Then I'm going to start on OPKS again to try and figure out what the hell is going on with my body, seems the MC has really messed it up.

    Glad you are having a great time:)
    Hope we'll be joining you before you give birth:p
    If i did get pg this cycle i think it'd be a girl as on dtd the day before ov. Fingers crossed, that would make me very very happy!:o
    Fingers crossed!:j

    It should...

    CBFM will stop asking for sticks soon as you are approaching the 20th stick. Perhaps it's time to use IC OPKs?
    I'd use IC OPKs, and as soon as the line starts to get darker, use CBFM:money:

    Your temps is a bit yo-yo, but I think we could probably see if you ov:o Hang in there!

    Theres a better job out there waiting for you and well fate works in mysterious ways :grouphug:

    Im off to put my Euromillions ticket on thanks for the reminder

    (((hugs))) for AF :(

    Oh and I are now talking, but still haven't resolved the fence panel issue :o

    I'd rather just be pg than have a new job, but another BFN on the hpt this morning. CD30 for me today which isn't unusual, I have on occasion been known to go to CD37. Fingers crossed I'm not going to have a month like GG :eek::eek::eek:
    :eek: You are even better than FF! It only this evening decided i may have Ov'd then and be 7dpo! Not fully convinced but who knows!! I've had loads of ewcm looking stuff recently but every time I take an opk it only has faint line, To be honest i've given up with opk's. I bought a pack of 50 at the start of this cycle and 68 days later i only have about 5 left.:cool:

    If i did get pg this cycle i think it'd be a girl as on dtd the day before ov. Fingers crossed, that would make me very very happy!:o

    Big hugs to WW, sorry to hear you didn't get that job :( Hopefully theres a better one (and a BFP) just around the corner for you :j

    Fingers crossed that you ov'd then :j:j:j It sounds promising!!

    I'd rather have a baby than a new job, as I would be worried about my maternity rights in a new post.
