    CD1... I'll hug myself again
    smiley_hug.gif
    This cycle is going to be au naturale. Dr said I need a break from Clomid etc:( I can ov anytime between CD14-40, but rather have it early, so am going to start running again from tomorrow.

    I think (my personal opinion) doing BD every other day throughout the cycle will pump more blood onto those important parts regularly hence encouraging better environment for the eggy/foetus to grow:cool:
    Since my DH can't do it, I'm going to have to do some exercises instead:o

    Ummm.... In contrast to all of the big jugs out there, mine are sometimes called fried eggs......... :rotfl: Yes, you guessed it - flat as a pancake :rotfl:
    :rotfl:
    So anyway, we got a letter today for OH's sample and another consultation, but no appointment for vaginal scan. The next consultation is with Alison Murdoch who is a big cheese at the Centre for Life. Now I'm putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 15 hundred thousand and getting myself worried that something is wrong with my bloods/ egg reserves, otherwise they would have sent an appointment for the scan also, and we would be seeing the same consultant we saw last time, or one of her lackeys. OH says I need to chill and just phone tomorrow to check it isn't an admin error ;)
    Do they know which CD you are on? They may like to do it on a specific CD.
    My doctor usually does the scan at CD12 or thereabouts to see how the eggs look.

    QQ sounds like your friend finds it hard to discuss that subject for some reason or other.
    Don't know, she has 2 kids, with 2 year age gap. She had them in her 20s.
    CD10 BD for me tonight, going to try every other night now, untill positive OPK then a couple of nights in a row, last chance for a 2011 baba for me this month.
    Good luck!:beer:
    As I said earlier, I've started my diet, its the tony ferguson 1 at boots, the soups are gross but the shakes I'm quite enjoying especially the caffe latte as it tastes like theres caffeine in it but **SHHH** my body doesn't know that!!! 3rd day so I'm not to miffed by it yet, missing my real tea and choc tho!!!
    Good luck!:j
    Also the past couple of weeks I've been getting letters from work and they've decided to cut everyones hours so I'm now classed as part time with only 25 hours a week!!! I've applied for college, starting in September so will have to postpone TTC for the forseeable if I get in!!!
    Any ideas when we should stop??? I thought june would be ok???
    June sounds fine, I'd then go onto NTNP (not trying not preventing) from then on. So no contraceptives, and leaving it to chance:p

    Im currently the queen of list making and have about a squillion lists on the go including a list of things to make lists about :s

    Strange dreams - last night I had two
    1- Me and oh got married (im blaming this on the text he sent me before I fell asleep which simply said I will put a ring on your finger
    and
    2 - We had a baby girl :s 6lb 11oz :s via a c-section and then I dreamt of the phone conversations I had with people telling them :s was slightly bizarre
    Premonition? C section is from watching OBEM:D
    I accidentally ordered some ic hpks yesterday from amazon :|
    :money:
  • Oooh, seems I started you all of on a spiral of naughtiness last night with my talk of Cadbury's choc chunk cookies :p

    QQ I was CD2 when I went to the clinic, which they were happy about as it coincided with the bloods they wanted to do., So I will be CD17 when we go back for the next consultation and probably 3DPO at a guess.

    I spent a year begging my boss to allow me to reduce my hours down to 30 due to health issues. He catagorically refused as it did not suit the service needs, seems now they may have changed their minds, which is annoying :mad: The reason being that when I couldn't reduce my hours we bought a new house, so I now can't afford to lose hours. If I had been able to reduce them we would have stayed put!

    He's probably right - it can't be good for you to have all those drugs in your system. You do hear stories about people who have been having fertility treatment and finally give up, only to fall pg naturally soon after...?! :o

    Good thinking! And doing exercise has so many other benefits - keeps your heart healthy, tightens your muscles, boosts endorphins, helps you de-stress and generally gets you in a better place mentally, IMO. :T

    CD3 for me. Just remembered I'm still due a smear, I suppose I better phone up and get an appointment for next week, ugh. :o

    Have a good day everyone :)

    Mmmmm well I've just celebrated AF with a glass of merlot and a nice rare steak! :D

    I went for a nice glass of shiraz and a yummy tea cooked by DH, bless him! AF here with a vengance now, and day from hell ahead of me at work, would rather be curled up in bed. I'm going armed with comfort food and painkillers!

    Hugs to QQ and anyone else the witch got.

    Congrats to Maclurky!! :):) xx
    Trying to jump back onto the moneysaving wagon .... :cool:

    Maclurky Congrats!!! :j
    pawpurrs - hope the every other night approach works! Happy BDing ;)
    cleo - FF has only just started changing so, it's fairly new to all of us :cool:
    Jen - a pizza from the chippy?!? :eek: (I did have to read your post twice as it threw me! lol) Where abouts are you? We have seperate shops for that kind of stuff down here... :p
    BB & deborah :rotfl:Olly from Saturday Kitchen re: 'fearsome rack' really made me giggle!! :rotfl:
    deborah - good luck with the diet
    phunkles - Those darn ic hpks - they are forever falling into amazon baskets..! :D
    QQ - liking your exercise and au naturel plan :cool:
    BB - don't forget to phone docs re your smear! I left mine for a few years and ended up having surgery and putting TTC on hold for a while :(
    katenut ((hugs)) hope the witch lets up soon

    Oh and ladies - the 'S' word (snow) is swearing down south here. If you could refrain, I would be grateful (and NO - we don't bl00dy want it! You keep it!!) :p

    CD14(22) and temp back down to 97.33 today. !!!!!! does that mean?!? Surely I can't have ov'd yet if temp is down again :huh: So confused...


    Hope everyone has a lovely day!

    Good Morning All!

    Congratulations to MacLurky on your BFP!! :D Now, if the bean is MacBeanie, does that make your OH MacSteamy or MacDreamy? lol. Not sure which one I prefer. lol

    Temp dropped this morning and have some spotting, so I expect CD1 will be tomorrow. Booooo. At least my breasticles will stop hurting.

    And judging by your responses, I'm right in thinking that OH should be grateful my sex drive is relatively high. Poor s0d though, he's so stressed out at wrk at the moment that he didn't get to sleep until 2.30am (long after me). :(

    I'm off to check if I won the Dutch lottery. Apparently they announced that someone had won the jackpot of €27.5 million.....tax free. I wish it was me, but I very much doubt it! lol

    Have a good day all!

    Wahoooo! I won! I won! I won!

    €15!!!! I can retire now! Wahooooooo.

    Alright, alright, that's just the cost of the ticket returned (they only do one draw a month and I only buy one ticket). But still, that's €15 I didn't expect to get back! :D

    Smash Not in to temping but from the little I know it sounds like you could have oved? Have you been doing OPK as well? Are you BDing?

    Hoping its my month, someone cant remember who said they thought it was, lets hope they are right, although DH has no job now, I am not giving up, something will happen! I have waited 11 years so far!
    QQ sorry for Af, BIG HUG. Somehow I got a good feeling for you and au natural this month, remember it happened that way last time. And as for friend, perhaps she is broody and DH wont let her have another, or maybe they struggled concieving their third, theres a huge amount of reasons, she could find it hard to talk about.
    Katenut sorry for af, hugs.
    WW you will manage somehow, god knows we will have to manage on nowt now DH has lost his job.
    Hugs to all those that need them, apologises for anyone I have missed.
    Knackered, mananged to DTD last night, so will Dtd again saturday.
    Pawpurrs x ;)

    Well CD1 for me, still at least i know and i'm not in that horrible limbo. Work until 5 and then a nice glass of wine i think.

    I can't decide if we should have a more relaxed month this month and not worry about OPK and BBT or just throw everything at it, decisions, decisions

    SBD ta all xx
