    Colli, yep, I know that feeling too. It's coming up a year for us now too, with nothing but irritating pcos cycles and bfns to show for it. :o I don't even know if I can get pg, so my mind wanders into fertility treatments and adoption processes and all sorts, quite regularly.:o

    Sorry ladies, this is why I've been awol.:o I've been finding it hard to be on fb cos of all the scan/baby pics and posts, and even if you hide that person from your feed of updates, if they comment on mine/someone else's that I know, I still have to see their pic etc :cool: I've (being brutally honest, but not being nasty) also started to struggle to see newbie bfps, when some of us have been ttc for much longer. That's not to say I don't wish the newbies well, genuinely, I just wish more of us were joining them in celebrating our own :o

    Anyway, my point was that my pma sucks (i swore vehemently in front of MIL when I found out about tracy having steve's twins after an isolated one night stand, on Corrie! :o), and I'm struggling to be online full stop, so that's why I'm a smidge MIA lately. I've been immersing myself in making rag rugs for Christmas presents, whilst recycling old clothes etc that we were going to throw out, instead ;)

    Our little one should have been born last week, we lost her at 20 weeks, and it's just heartbreaking to see others I know with their babies arriving safely. Though I'm happy for them it just tears me up inside :( Hopefully it will be our turn soon though.

    I can't imagine how hard that must be, wpb. :( It will be your turn soon, keep up the PMA :o Sounds like you DTD in the "window of opportunity" so hopefully this month will be your month.

    I know how you feel, bigzippy :o (apart from the added spanner in the works of your various medical conditions!)

    It will be your turn soon - it's about time my dear :)

    Rag rugs = very "eco" and MSE! :D :money:

    Hugs to everyone on CD1/2/3, boooooo. :mad:

    Hope everyone has a good day - be warned though - it's freeeeeezing out this morning!

    How long does high usually last on CBFM?

    I have been high now for 9 days with no peak. Haven't BD'd since Monday.

    TTC40 I've had a lot of highs (10 I think) on CBFM one month - it was my third month of using it if I remember correctly, and I think it's cos I took evening primrose oil, which lengthened my cycle and delayed my ovulation. I would keep BDing every other day, as it sounds like you're due your peak fairly soon.

    Lots of people with colds on here at the moment - hope you all feel better soon!getwell.gif

    Moon and I DTD yesterday when he got home from work, and we're going to do the same today (he said he's less tired then so it's better). Fingers crossed.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    It does feel like my pma is running out sometimes and sometimes I'm not sure how much longer I can keep it up :o. rag rugs and recycling old clothes sounds like a good diversion. I've started writing a book, I don't know if it will ever be any good but I've always wanted to write and if you don't try, you don't know :).

    Without wanting to be too personal, how's your BMI now? Would you feel happy to take clomid yet? Even if you aren't quite at where you want to be if your dr's happy to perscribe it maybe give it a go for one cycle? Obviously I don't know you in real life and I really hope you get pregnant but from a couple of things you've said I've thought you and your hubby would do brilliantly if you adopted. I imagine you both being able to take any baby and love it to bits regardless of where it came from :)

    Hello WPB, nice to see you back :). You sound as though you are coping very well, I'm already panicking inside about getting to what would have been my due date. I thought it would be ok if I was pregnant by then but I don't think that's going to happen :o. I agree with how horrible it is when people avoid talking about your loss, I don't think I've ever felt so lonely. I know it's because people don't know what to see and feel awkward but COME ON, if one of your friends is going through something horrible make the effort, it will be appreciated. :mad: Oops, got a bit ranty there! I think I go a bit mental when AF's in town :o:)
