Trying for a Baby Part 7

tea_lover

hello ladies :wave:,

hugs to everyone on CD1, or who would just generally like a big hug. Hope everyone's ok. Am a bit out of touch with you all but I think I've picked up the basics lol.

QQ - best of luck for the next cycle. Here's to just the right hormone balance for your lovely eggy x.
zcrat - sounds like WW is going well. Good luck with it.
MV - sometimes BDing is just too much like hard work!
teamlowe - glad the appt went ok. Here's hoping you won't even need the next one.
birdie - (((hugs))). Just cos you sound like you need one xx.

AFM, no change really. Had CD21 bloods yesterday, have CD28 bloods next week then CD2 whenever AF turns up (although of course fingers crossed that it doesn't!)

I'll have to change the hycosy appt as I don't think AF will have been by then. Am really hoping I can make it the same day as OH's SA so he's around to drive me home. I don't know anyone that's had a hycosy - can anyone help me out with their experiences please? (nothing too scary!!)

Think I *may* be gearing up to ov. I can never tell the difference between EWCM and er... BD leftovers though . Am on CD22 and ov'd CD33 last time so if it did happen in the next few days that would be a big improvement.

:wave: everybody

Birdie - (((hugs))) for CD1 Hope you have a lovely holiday, though. I find swimming is fine if I use a tampon.

Tealover - hope all the tests go ok. Thinking of you and OH, can't be much fun but hopefully the test results will mean some sort of plan can be put in place. Or, even better, hopefully AF won't show, as you say

CD3 here and I am already feeling sooo much better than I did a few days ago when I was super hormonal! I haven't taken my temperature the last few days (thermometer buried in a box under the bed!) and I feel very relaxed about not trying this cycle! It is annoying to miss a month (well, more like 6 weeks with me!) but with me being away over probable OV time it gives us a good opportunity to relax and enjoy some non ttc BDing! And who knows, if what everybody seems to go on about to me about 'relax and it will happen' ( :mad: ) then maybe this will be our month

Birdie - sorry to hear that, especially before holiday. Hope you manage to enjoy it xx

zcrat - v v excited but it doesn't feel real yet!

QQ - thank you was a bit fed up this morning - been for 7 interviews and still no job. Oh well onwards and upwards!

lily xxx what's up?

CD1 for me I'm gutted it's arrived in time for our little 4 night holiday as that means I'll be on the entire time and I've never had AF on holiday before, ever! Always was either on the pill or took the tablets that delay it. Don't even know if I can swim?! Looking at the weather here I might have to swim to the airport tomorrow so I'll find out sooner than expected!

Hugs for Fannyanna and my fellow CD1-ers

Birdie, I always swam with my mooncup, never had any problems. Sorry for CD1.

Hi

Fannyanna - good to hear from you. I was just thinking about you the other day. I think it's normal to be jealous, while still happy for people. I am actually not really talking to a few friends as I am sure they are trying, and I feel terrified everytime I see them they will announce a pregnancy.

QQ: Sorry it didn't work, but good idea on skipping the work break. In the end, it's just work! I found out today I will lose my lovely boss in August and get a new unknown one... all I could think was - hopefully I will be pregnant by then, and won't have to deal with it for too long!

Not sure who talked about fertility massage, but that sounds fantastic. I love massages, and that is a perfect combination. I might have a bit o' a google and see if I can find somewhere around here.

TeamLowe - good luck with the test. Fingers crossed things solve themselves before you get to the clomid phase.

tea lover - good to see you too. I also don't keep up as much here as I used to. I think after a few months the excitement seems to wane a bit. Still on the endless cycle of hope and sadness, but not much to say about it anymore.

Lilymay - I was thinking of you as my cycle buddy this month! We were both on the same cd and dpo until you reset! Good luck with the latest ov. Hope you are ok with OH.

AFM, I was really hopeful this month after feeling more relaxed, and also been really tired the last few days. But again, I'm pretty sure I am symptom inventing. Got a few solid blasts of cramps today, and feeling very wet (sorry TMI) but no actual AF. It's not due til Saturday, but all the normal symptoms are appearing. Including grumpiness, which seems to be my MOST reliable pre-AF symptom. I can tell it's hormonal, but I can't stop myself worrying and being cranky at everyone.

So I am quite down tonight. Got my wine club wine delivered earlier this week, and they all looked great, so I was thinking 'oh well, must cancel that if I get pregnant'. But now I can try some of those gorgeous looking reds! But tonight... well.. still hoping, so I will keep off the sauce for the moment.

Anyway, how come it has all gone so quiet here these days! I think we need Nikki back, she was a great source of advice and PMA for people. It's nice to feel there are things you can do that could make a difference.

It will all work out for us all in the end. Once AF shows up (and after the wine) I am motivated to go and join WW to re-start my weight loss. I am ok if I have to go to adoption if I have to, and even that has a weight limit, so I know I have to do it sometime.

I 'only' need to lose about 6-8 kgs. It's not that hard, and just needs a few months focus, so I just pull my finger out. My really good friend has just moved nearby and he loves to run and go to the gym, so he will motivate me again.

And summer is coming!

Sorry for CD1.Hope its the last for a while

But dont let it ruin your hol! Just use a tampon. Ive gone snorkeling, swimming all sorts! In fact the first time i used one as a teenager was so I could go swimming off a boat on holiday!

Thanks for the advice about the swimming Thanks to everyone else for the advice and hugs too!

I had the :eek: feeling over American Pie and Titanic too! Quite sad that OH and I went to see American Pie on Sunday and there were kids nearby talking about their favourite one being 'Beer Pong'... i.e one of the straight to DVD spin-offs... they hadn't even heard of the original!!! :eek: I had to stop OH from kicking them out! :rotfl:

Just finished packing, it is so hard trying to pack for 4 nights using only hand luggage! I'm the kind of person who packs enough for about a week even if I'm only going away for a night so I really struggled! Also just realised that I've turned into my MIL (who never carries money as she 'has a husband for that'), I was looking at my case thinking, 'What's missing?', realising I had no purse then thinking that OH has all the Euros so I don't need one! :rotfl:

Signing off until next week! Hope there are lots of BFPs for me to come back to! :beer:
