Definately Blonde - sorry about the BFN. It's not over til AF appears though!
Apple pie - good luck for Monday.

I need you both for the July numbers! :beer:

Secrets - It's so hard isn't it when people just announce it. I am finding it increasingly hard to be happy for people who seem to have it easy! But I try to think that there are good and bad things in life. It's just that we are all SO focussed on this at the moment that we may be losing perspective...

(Please note, I am failing at doing this! I am super jealous all the time if I am honest.)


niknok: I hope you are right, but let me promise you that everyone on this board has been convinced many a time. But also lots of people do get pregnant every month, so fingers crossed!

Code: Good luck, hopefully you did manage to catch the right time. The OPK's for me tend to come up a bit early, so there could still be time.

AFM, nothing much going on. I thought I had a faint deep down crampy feeling which isn't a good sign as I normally get a solid 'twinge' one week before AF. But I've also been very sensitive to foods the last few weeks, so might just be that. B00bs are sensitive as normal pre AF too, but I am still hoping. I think I said, but I have quit drinking this month (and I probably drink too much normally) so I think there could be a few changes coming from that too.

On that note, what are people doing about alcohol while TTC? How much are you drinking/not drinking during your cycle?

D'ya know I've been thinking about this lately. I know some people will say that you shouldn't drink at all, or have caffeine or whatever, but...I've been at this for a long time and feel like I'm putting my life on hold for no reason. So, I am relaxing. That being said I'm not a big drinker anyway and I do admit to testing before a big night. A few glasses of wine over Sunday dinner isn't going to do any harm, otherwise there wouldn't be any French people.

:rotfl::rotfl: about the French! Very true.

I don't drink a LOT, but I do have semi regular big nights out. Apart from that it's a few glasses with dinner a few times a week. This month has been a bit of a test to prove it to myself that I can not drink.

It's funny how people don't like it if you really don't drink. It feels very anti-social not to drink. And of course everyone asks me if I am pregnant...

I still drink. Tried to cut it out but my friendship group tend to do a lot of drinking (we don't have a problem, I swear! ) so couldn't really get away with not drinking at all... and TBH I don't want to! If I'm not PG I might as well enjoy myself whilst I still can! We're all going to Bierkeller next week to drink steins of German beer and eat big pretzels, yum! I'll probably get a BFP next Saturday so I have to have soft drinks all night!

Had a fair bit of EWCM this morning so decided to initiate BD just in case I'd got OV wrong but OH panicked and pulled out at the crucial moment so the deposit missed the mark, think he forgets that we're TTC sometimes! Bloody hell! :rotfl:

Me too. Mild cramps starting, very sore boobs, mild persistent headache, and general irritability... ie. exactly bang on time standard pre-AF symptoms.

Hugs. Dont read the mirena and trying thread. Its full of people telling stories of having their coil removed and getting their BFP 2 minutes later ( oh would you look at that? My phone autocorrects BFP to BFN). I feel abnormal.
