    Hugs for AF and BFNs.

    Jules when I took evening primrose my cycle lengthened by 2 days, so it may be worth a try. I took the high dosage Tesco ones up until ovulation. Nice to see you back with us, although I'm sorry this means you've not got your BFP yet.

    dj we used to have a pole in our local nightclub - after a few too many drinks, I managed to have a go, but I think I jumped up onto the pole a bit too energetically (to hang upside down) and ended up with bruised legs (I was about 19 at the time). I'm sure I had trousers on at the time time though, cos I can't imagine doing that in a dress, as I wouldn't want to flash to anyone watching. I think the leggings under your shorts idea sounds like a good one, as you can always take them off if they tell you to.

    Still in 2ww - 9 days to go, so no news here.

    Hugs for all who need or want them,

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

    Jules have you tried Agnus Castus? It's supposed to be good to help restore hormone imbalances and also with short LPs.

  • Well, I have worked out why my EWCM was all over the place this month.

    It's because my cycle has gone mental.

    I'm on CD31, either 14 or 17dpo, still testing as BFN (even with my expensive superdrug test this morning :mad:) and I don't feel like AF is coming.

    :wall:

    I had a temp drop on Friday, which bounced back up again nicely on Saturday, then down on Sunday and down again today. My FF chart looks like I'm just making stuff up (which I'm not, honestly!). I think part of the problem with it might be that I very rarely have 3 hours uninterrupted sleep, particularly during the week - Friday night and Saturday night are usually ok but the rest is a bit rubbish.

    And my b00bs are really sore and I keep crying (like, every day for the last 5 days - I cried at Don't Tell The Bride on Thurs, because 'they're so happy and he made it all pretty for her'!. *rolleyes*). Could be pre-menstrual. Don't bl00dy know. Grr.

    Lots of hugs for BFNs and AF - onwards and upwards for everyone.

    The idea of pole dancing scares me a little bit, but I saw burlesque dancing classes advertised which I thought looked like a lot of fun :) I may need to round up some of the girlies and get them to go with me!

    I'm glad your car is looking better sexymouse - this is one of many reasons my car is 11 years old, we don't live in the nicest area. Also, DH is planning on learning to drive soon - no point in throwing money down the drain if he's one of the many who has a bump in the first year of driving!

    Sorry for the BFNs and AFs :( Next month will be the month! :)

    We didn't do well this weekend BDing, only managed it Saturday morning. Got a bit upset about it since I felt like we were missing a window and OH could clearly tell that I was not happy, he looked so sad and said he's doing his best but he's just not wired to switch it on at will... so I really hope that for us it's a case of quality over quantity or we've got no hope! :rotfl:

    Hope you all had a lovely weekend.

    Saturday night didn't go according to plan. We had a lovely time at the wedding but I had a few too many wines and got a bit emotional when we got back to the room so BDing didn't happen :o (we have known about the wedding for a long while and so when we were planning to go originally I thought I'd be 20weeks pg so was picturing myself with a nice little bump and so that kept playing on my mind and the wine definitely didn't help).

    We did BD yesterday afternoon when we got home. I've no idea if I've ov'd or not as I'm still not remembering to temp and I'm not doing OPKs. I think I'm going to give up on temping until after AF arrive (which hopefully she won't ;)) as I think it's a bit late to start now and also I think I'm putting too much pressure on myself to get pg before the end of the year.

    I'm feeling quite :( at the moment. Yesterday was six weeks since we said goodbye to Alex and tomorrow is the date we had for our appointment for our 20 week scan. :(
