    Hmmm just read an interesting fact: Wearing too much make-up can mask the scent that attracts men to women during ovulation. So keep those faces clean ladies! Although, not sure what's worse if you tend to get spots around OV, having them on show or covering up and risking your OH not feeling randomly h0rny because he's picked up on your pheromones?! :rotfl:
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

  • Big hugs to lily, thinking of you today
    Hugs to tea&cupcakes too for CD1, hope its not too bad for you and you can find something to cheer you up
    Will be watching out for your bfp next week code :)
    gemmzie good luck testing, how many days past ov are you?
    I feel funny this cycle I'm actually nervous about bding this week cause I know how important it is. It sounds daft but I'm almost scared to get PG again because I dont think I can bare another miscarriage.

    Ooh cheers for that I'll have a look. We're right in the middle of the midlands so not usually too far away from these things.

    Really should stop spending money though. Have bitten the bullet and decided to get the drive sorted. It really needed doing last year but we keep putting it off and it's in a right state now... the puddles and holes are so deep it's hard to get out of the car lol. Will be lovely when it's done, just a shame it will make such a dent in my savings.

    Tea lover you should check out Ettington Park - it's from the same hotel group as the one we just went to, some friends of ours went there recently and apparently it's amazing. It's not as :money: as the Hilton deals, but they have some quite good dinner, bed and breakfast offers on at the moment! It was sooo good for us to get away, a change of scene and a break from the ttc stress!

    Just to update you all about my FS appointment...

    The doctor I saw was lovely. She was so friendly and took time to explain everything to me which really helped. Basically, they are doing some more blood tests to check hormone levels (did a cd21 test today as well because I am on cd21). OH has to do an SA and I am having an HSG. Should everything come back normal they will start me on clomid.

    I asked about my suspected LPD and she said that as long as I am ovulating (which she doesn't think i am as my last result was abnormally low even for pre-ov) then an 8 day LP shouldn't be an issue.

    So all in all, a really positive appointment. Oh, and I have a heart-shaped uterus apparently :)

    Wow lily may that's so positive, really pleased for you!

    How did you find out about the heart shaped uterus?! Did they scan you?

    Fingers crossed you'll have a BFP before you need any more tests or any treatment!

    Hi - I had my first AF a little over 5 weeks after having the implant out (16 days after FF said I ovulated).

    glad your appointment seemed to go well, lilymay.

    Hugs to those that need them - sorry I'm not being more specific as I'm on my phone.

    Ewcm today which it's bad timing as I've had the day from hell....
