    :grouphug: for tealover (slightly weird hug smiley, but I don't know any others...) I am one day behind you on CD38 today... I can't complain too much as this is my first long cycle, but it is so annoying!

    Mrs Toast - yes, CD1 is the first day of AF (full red flow, so if you have spotting the day before that wouldn't count).

    Hi Ladies,

    So no sign of AF still so I tested yesterday (1 day after missed) on both an IC and a CB and both negative.

    Only our first month of NTNP and only DTD where he actually 'donated' inside me twice so wasn't expecting too much...

    I just dont feel im ready yet for temping and ov charts etc - whilst i know they are helpful for good results, im worried all of that takes the spark & romance away a little so i think we will try out our 'Que Sera' attitude for a little while longer... :(

    So.... technically does this mean im now on CD30 ???

    We're trying to keep it relaxed too but BDing every 2-3 days so there's always fresh sperm available no matter when I Ov. this is what Doctors and the NICE guidelines recommend. In fact if you google the NICE guideline it's quite informative on what works and what doesn't

    Studies show that people using OPKs are no more likely to get pregnant than those having sx every 2-3 days but obviously those who find it harder to have frequent sx find OPKs useful x x

    My body chose today, with man flu and very poorly mil back in hospital, to soak through more than a night time ultra pad in less than an hour. :mad: haven't slept all night, and had to come back from the hospital to change, because I'd leaked through my jeans too :(:mad:

    Cannot even tell you how much I am beyond having had enough.:mad::wall:

    To those who were asking (sorry I wasn't online last night), I took it 3 times a day up to ovulation from CD1.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Oh massive hugs Zippy, that's awful :( Hope your MIL is doing OK too *hugs*
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    BZ - sending massive hugs to you, really hope the bleeding eases off as that sounds horrible and all you need on top of mil being back in hospital.


    Just seen the nurse at my doctors surgery who took a swab to test for chlamydia and said result should be back in a week. I also phoned fs to make my first appointment but they are so busy they have stopped giving appointments out over the phone and told me that they will send a letter with my appointment date in next 7 days.

    Hugs to Tealover for annoyingly long cycle and to all the others who are having a hard time.
