Afternoon Ladies,

Welcome an9...! Sorry, I can't do letters and numbers anymore, my brain has stopped working the last couple of days.

I kind of read what you write guys and I think it's all funny and that but I just can't smile or take it in properly. Stress is my enemy and work has been mad:(. I was so exhausted on Mon night, I went to bed at 9, and yesterday at 10, I'm usually up till 11ish.

Birdie, I remember you got preseed from Amazon. How do you find it? did you get the one with the applicator? I'm kind of thinking about getting it but not sure whether it's ruining the moment or not IYKWIM.

Sorry you're so frowny and stressed

Hope things get better by the weekend

How's the grumpy patient doing?

We got Concieve Plus rather than Preseed and it's just like a normal lubricant, just runnier. We're used to using one anyway so it's no different, just slap it on and go, apart from when we first used it and OH was expecting it to be thick so did the old shake and squeeze and it went everywhere! :eek:

Errr.. does anybody else ever stare at their ff chart more than once a day, just to check in case anything has changed? It's a bit like when I keep looking in the fridge to see if there is any new or interesting food in there since I last checked an hour ago.

Oh dear!!!!!!!

I have a cycle spreadsheet (not on FF). I originally started it years ago to keep track of what medication I was taking when, now I use it to track BDing etc. I have it open all day and must look at it 20+ times, just to check if the CD has changed since last time I checked

:rotfl:

Yup, all the time. And it really upsets me that when I change things on there, it doesn't show up for a little while, I have to check obsessively until it does.

Oh good, not just me then! Love this thread, so good to talk to other mad people

Oh hugs tea lover, hope AF arrives soon, know what it's like having long cycles, I had several 60 days cycles last year, turned out to be stress over the wedding (at least we think that was what it was, even though I didn't feel stressed in the slightest). But I seem to have pretty much settled down now, despite the random 29 day one this month, I'm not usually early.

Well thanks for the madness last night, I was lurking after work and it did make me laugh. Think I needed it, as much as I am glad I went away, everything now seems so boring at home.
Just going to sit with a good book tonight before OBEM as it's my night off, treated myself to a book called Tales of A Midwife, it's an autobiography of a widwife and her experiences. Think I'm going to need a box of tissues at the ready. This really may have been a bad idea.

Thanks Birdie, I saw the Concieve Plus, will order that than. Yes, we are used to lubricants as well so it's not an issue but was wondering about the applicators.

Grumpy patient is very sad and stressed, we have an appointment on Monday so hopefully will get an answer. Thanks for asking.

Hi ladies, feeling very hormonally stressed today and on the verge of AF arriving. Had a bad day and I am just considering going to bed and trying to wake up in a better mood.

Going to watch OBEM in bed and think positive thoughts.

I have used Conceive Plus for a few months but this month decided to go with the cough medicine to improve CM. Think I may just try without the Conceive Plus to help the sperm swim in my own CM.

Sa-ra i think if you get a lot of flat temps it is a sign that the battery is going hun as your temp should always differ slightly each day so that could be something to look for on your chart.
