    Hugs SC. Such a difficult day, I can't imagine...

    Tinkwings and Mogwai, sorry - but I am sending the CBFM to Lilymay, as I know she was getting one, and we are cycle buddies and all that. Sorry!

    Skint - it is sad that some of us are still here, we hoped we be gone too. But I am on a PMA mission. :)

    I'm feeling good mainly because after some chats to OH I feel like he is really on board and I am feeling a lot less alone. I feel like I've taken the pressure off myself a little, and maybe being relaxed will help a bit. I went for a massage tonight at a new chinese massage place near me, where they hang off the ceiling and walk all over you! Really interesting - obviously pretty 'firm' but somehow using a foot spreads the pressure and makes it less painful than a deep tissue massage. Nice massage and not too expensive.

    They do reflexology and accupuncture, so I might work my way down the 'menu' in the non-2ww part of my cycle.

    So cheers everyone, and welcome to the weekend!

    No worries time2deal! I may still get one after this cycle as the cheapie opks are really annoying me!

    T2d- def consider acupuncture, I've heard good things about ut

    skintchick - big hugs sweetie, must be such a hard day for you hun xx. Have no useful advice re. the mc clinic but hope it all works out ok for you.

    Have just been cheering myself up by looking at the most beautiful kittens.... so cute I nearly cried lol. Just trying to arrange a time to go and see them, am so ridiculously over excited already. Am hoping it will take my mind off any potential ss'ing.

    T2D - You are a star <3 Thank you :)

    I was just de-stressing on Galabingo and won £5 on some slots - I never ever ever win anything so I'm buzzing! Hehe. I am such a loser!

    OH got a start date for his new job today too - yay! All things are go in our household.

    Tea - Kittens sound like a fab idea, although I am a dog person myself :)

    T2D and Mog - I have never been for a massage, but I quite like the idea of having a little Chinese woman walk all over me! lol. A spar near me uses hot stones and that sounds quite appealing too.

    Skint - I would book the appointment asap. You can always cancel if you find out you are pg. You don't want to risk a longer wait if you arn't pregnant and wait (but fingers crossed you are!!)

    I use the Clearblue digital ovulation tests now. Gives me a nice smiley face when ov'ing, or at least when I get the LH surge. And it's consistently on CD11-12, so I am lucky to be pretty sure when I am ov'ing.

    I like the certainty, although it takes a bl00dy long time to come up with a decision. Makes me think I was probably not waiting enough when I was using IC's.

    I'll try acupuncture, just to see what it is like. I know it has years of history and all, but is just seems so unlikely to work!! Such a strange concept, and yet somehow I am fully willing to believe in reflexology - which I love. I did pick up a leaflet today, and I'll give them a call and give it a go.

    Morning ladies, hope you're well, set my alarm to take temp,at normal time and now I can't get back to sleep lol
    Was excited cos it dipped yesterday but it's back to normal levels. Not guna give up hope just yet though, when I have a 'regular' cycle and temped before, I seemed to have a 10 day luteal phase, which wold put me for Oving Monday and I think I've had EWCM, so fingers crossed.

    Not much else going on my end, weight seems to be coming off easier and skin and whiskers seem better so hopefully metformin doing its job.

    Going meeting mum in town this morning.its a bit strange, we always have tea at her house Wednesday night and then she text me early Thursday morning task if I wanted to meet at half nine this morning. The only times we've done it recently have been when I've been upset about something so I've no idea what's going on. Told DH that if she tells me my other sister is pregnant then I'm quitting the family lol x x x

    Good morning, only 6 more days to CD1:j
    I have 2 more pills to take (tonight & tomorrow night) and then the 5 day wait for a massive AF to arrive (after 3 week LP:shocked:).

    Time2deal, you shouldn't take EPO after ov. Same goes for grapefruit juice as it can make implantation difficult.
    Not sure about cough syrup:huh:

    As for massages, glad you are enjoying them. I had really painful massage once by a Chinese lady, but it felt really good later on:o
    I love acupuncture as well, the needles can hit a nerve and makes one jump:p
    skintchick, (((hugs))) for the mc baby's anniversary:(
    I usually buy a cake for myself and eat it alone as DH doesn't remember the date. I can't remember the exact date either now, but it was early March:o They kept changing the due date as I wasn't sure when I ov'd:o

    As for mc clinic, I'd book it and cancel if you are pg.
    TeamLowe, hope you'll have a nice time with your mum:o
    Glad metformin is working for you:)
