    I'm my own worst enemy around ov time. I worry that we won't manage it, then I get arsey that OH isn't some sort of mind reader that can just tell when I'm ovulating. But then I never want to actually tell him in case that's too much pressure, so I just stress about it and spoil for a fight until he bites at something, we end up having an argument and then I blame him for us not doing it at the right time.

    Wow, I could have written that! Scary....

    Thanks abis, you've helped me sort out my plan for this month :)

    My donor lives about an hours drive away, but it's actually quite close to where my Dad lives, and since CD 11-13 is fri/sat/sun I think I'm going to go stay with him for the weekend and have a bit of a holiday, along with visiting my donor every day :)

    Should be nice going back to the town I grew up in for a while and seeing some old friends, hopefully it will help me relax a bit and give me a boost.

    Hugs mogwai for af but that sounds brilliant, especially the crisps :)
    too many CD1s today though :( hugs for you all, and some nice chocolate and maybe a sneaky glass of vino

    congratulations binkyboo that's definitely a short stay, wish I could do that.

    abis that's brilliant news about ttc again, I'm ,so pleased for you :) thanks so much for doing the lists but I'm sure I must be more dpo than just 9 ;)

    MrsJ hope your date night is good and has the desired results :)

    Lily I actually laughed out loud at your ice rink comment (eeeeww though)

    Niknok hope you're doing okay, hope your cycles settle down soon, I'd second the suggestions of opks next month, they really helped me get an idea of what was happening although I know they're not for everyone

    My phone wants to say opossums everytime instead of opks, I don't even know what that is!?

    I keep meaning to say congrats Abis on being able to try again. The alternatives sounded pretty scary. And great "listing" for us all! I am trying desperately to try and convince myself I am 11 not 12DPO... but it probably is 12. Still a chance, but it feels quite remote now.

    (I may have even done a quick FRER at 9/10DPO... also bfn. I am a sucker for punishment)

    Lilymay, thanks for the Digi recommendation from amazon. I had wondered where they had gotten to, but today I opened the spider pit below the stairs, and the postie had put them there. I very gingerly fished the parcel out with my foot! Spidery, but tests are safe and sound.

    Hi all! I'm back. Had a very traumatic time last month with mc. Won't go into detail, but had a roller coaster of a pregnancy, full of problems and finally ending with an erpc at 9 weeks (10 days ago).

    For the next few cycles I'm takIng a laid back, ntnp approach while we recover from our loss.

    I'm not sure how to count my cd after erpc. Took hpt after 1 week, still positive. Will test again on fri and count cd1 from my first negative I think??

    Anyway. I'm hoping it's true that months straight after mc are fertile and that, after 2 mcs, it's going to be 3rd time lucky! X

    negative opk but there's not a lot in it. Hoping its on its way out though as managed to sneak another bd in so would be good if i was to ov soon.

    hugs for cd1 ladies.

    I think an opossum is an animal.

    Hi there maire, better luck for us this time I hope. I was told to wait 3 months before trying again so will just chart cycle for his month then have a go next cycle. Good to know we might be extra fertile!

    abis, that's great news!

    Still waiting for af proper. Thought it was starting sunday but am still impatiently waiting for full flow so I can start charting.

    Getting the comfort eating under control again and organisingy life to do some exercise as I have put on a stone since getting pregnant and then having the ectopic surgery. Need to halt this trend in its tracks or I will be mega depressed.

    Thanks for all the support I had to take DD2 doc's this afternoon and it was the really nice female doc so I spoke to her she said to make an appointment when my next AF is due and she will order the blood tests for me .

    She said because of my age and having two kids that that is all the help I would get for free but if I wanted to be referred to a FS I could but I would have to pay.

    I guess the bloods are a good start to know that I am oving is a good start.

    She also said that the older you are the longer it can take so I guess it's long hall for me and looking at investing in a CBFM when my trial ends. xxx
