Welcome Anderson.

Congratulations Welshgirl. Let's hope you are the first of many this month (although technically you should be on last months numbers - lol).

Kitten - good to see you. How are you doing?

Yep, I was April - I don't mind being moved back a month to bump up the numbers - was too nervous to say then (still a bit nervous, but not as much as expected)

SS alert (do not read if you are easily swayed!!)
I was convinced I was pg as had a horrible sick taste in throat.
Tested Sat (5 days b4 ov) nothing
Tested Mon (3 days b4 ov) nothing - went for a couple of drinks that night!
Tested Fri (I don't know how I waited that long!!!!!) TLP on cheapie - hubby shocked!
Tested with Clearblue Sunday 2-3 weeks
Tested this Sunday 3+ weeks - no more testing!!!

I wish you all the best of luck on your journeys and hugs for CD1 COMP and hormones Mrs

I will be watching!!

Hi everyone, can you take me off the list please QQ.

I amazingly got a job i totally didn't expect at the weekend and after a long chat with hubby we have decided it'll just be the 4 of us. It's amazing to have the opportunity to get back into a job i adored but had to leave after having my son almost 6 years ago and never expected it to happen. I am a little sad we won't be having another but know it's the best thing for us as a family.

I wish all of you the love and luck in the world, fingers crossed you all get your BFP's very soon. Thank you all so much for your support.xx

congratulations on the new job - thanks for popping in to let us know and for the good wishes! All the best

Lilymay - ((hugs)) I know it can be really confusing doing OPKs, taking temps, etc and can get quite stressful. I know it's much easier said than done, but why don't you just wait for AF (or BFP!!!) to show up this month, and keeping BDing every 2-3 days, just in case you haven't ovulated yet. I sometimes think doing more and more OPKs gets very confusing and upsetting. As TTC40 mentioned, you could try the Clear Blue digi OPKs next month - they are more expensive but much easier to read (I believe, I haven't used them yet).

Olliesmum - Congrats on the new job. Take care xxxx

You're right. I did another OPK and its very positive so i think I will just hide the rest. HPT was negative.
I started reading about short leutal phases last night and that just upset me even more so i will try and abstain from anything TTC other than BD'ing.
I'm still convinced I'm not ovulating.

Ollies mum - that is great news. I've just started my new job (DS is 6 months) and it is such a good opportunity for our family. All the best

MrsJ - any sign of AF yet?

Congratulations Welshgirl! :j

Congratulatons on the job Olliesmum, that's lovely news and it's nice to know that you're happy with letting your life take a different direction... away from dirty nappies!

I haven't been on much recently, been reading a little but of course I've forgotten what I wanted to say! Hope everyone had a good long weekend (those of us who had it off at least!). I think my hormones must be going a little mad as I had to take OH to A&E yesterday (he's dislocated a finger somehow and it swelled up to double its size and he couldn't move it without looking like he was about the throw up! _pale_) and I was actually jealous of the 2 mums in there with their babies... the fact that they must have been worried sick about their poorly babies to even have them at A&E in the first place escaped me, I was just thinking, 'Meh... wish I had a baby to worry about!' Been feeling a little up and down and generally 'off' all weekend, OH said that I'd better be PG to explain my mood swings and constantly moaning about feeling funny! Trying not to SS as I could just be coming down with the cold that OH had last week, but it doesn't really feel like it, feels like something else. AF due at the end of the week (I'm sure it'll arrive on the plane on Friday!), if it does arrive I shall be drinking a lot of wine and beer on holiday!

MrsJ - any sign of AF yet?

No sign of AF yet, but another BFN this morning. My temperature has dropped almost to the coverline too, so now just waiting for AF to show. DH and I have agreed we will have a break next month, for two reasons - the main one being that I am going to be in the US (without him) for a week, around the time when I usually ovulate! And secondly it will just be good to have a break from temping, charting, OPKs, timed BDing etc. It's annoying because I probably won't ovulate again after then until July, but it's just the way it is!

Lilymay - Google is a nightmare, it can have you believing there are all sorts of things wrong with your body. I was reading about long cycles last night and freaking myself out, and simultaneously reading reviews about the internet cheapie pregnancy tests and getting my hopes up thinking they might just be a bad batch and I am actually pregnant...... Step away from the internet (except for this forum, of course!!!)

At least this time I was only in limbo for two days instead of two weeks!

I'm actually looking forward to taking a break next cycle. Going to hide the thermometer and the OPKs and will get going again in June.
