    I've not had any more coloured streaks since that one yesterday, but as it's really close to af appearing if I'm not lucky, I can't get excited about possible implantation. I'd take it too hard. I've got skin break out going on though, which is doing my head in, and I only recall getting them for ov normally... :cool: I'll have to double check on ff. Maybe it's laaate ov again?? Meh. I just want to know what's going on so I can deal with it accordingly :o
    One can ov or try to ov several times, I'd BD just in case:o
    Rang mil at lunch time to check up on her and she was "mithered to bl0ody death" and sounded panicky so I'm back here with her, making the most of my phone's 3g :o I really look forward to being able to spend an entire 24hrs at home :o
    :o
    Qq I hope you get the ivf lark sorted soon. the doc was rude! :shocked:
    Would either of you ever consider a donor?:o
    I would consider a donor egg, my sister has offered, and am open to it, as with adoption:) I don't think DH would want donor sperm or adoption though, he'd prefer to be childless:o

    We do, every 2-3 days generally, both "for fun" and because my body isn't predictable, though it would be considerably easier to if we were ever home together and not exhausted :o

    Is it something you've discussed at length with him?

  • QQ sorry to hear that your appointment didnt go well. I dont know it you've been asked it before but did you consider alternative medicine to help with conception, like acupuncture. I've been reading a lot about acupuncture recently and its claiming to improve chances for conception. I hope I didnt upset you,

    No, just passing (re adoption).

    I've done acupuncture during and after IVF, and have been doing Chinese medicine thingy since May. My eggs should be perfect by now:D

    Thanks :o If you want something quick and easy that tastes yummy, how about chocolate truffles? BBC good food website has lots of recipes for truffles and other things such as cookies, cakes, pickles, chutneys etc that are nice to give as presents :)

    It has been very windy here today, luckily I've been off work so haven't had to leave the house :)

    Hope you and bean are well BB

    xx

    Thanks for asking emsbet, me and bean are well - can't believe I'm 13 weeks already...!

    Thanks for the suggestion of truffles - DH have just finished the first stage of making some :D Have got some plain chocolate, some rum, and some amaretto...nom nom. I probably shouldn't eat the alcoholic ones but will have to try the amaretto ones as I love love love amaretto! :p

    I'm really excited as my little sister is coming to stay tonight - she lives in London so I don't see her as often as I'd like. Making her favourite - bangers and mash - for tea, yum :)

    ((hugs)) QQ, hope you manage to work something out with your DH soon re. IVF. :o

    Hope AF stays away for those of you with symptoms lingering...fingers crossed for you.

    BB x

    Honestly, if one can make a baby without men, it'll be far more efficient:cool:

    Totally agree if it was left to us women we would all be PG!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hope everyone is well and warm. Found out today that one of my colleagues is pg but in a new relationship & didn't mean for it to happen. She is in her 30s & has 2 kids already so I would have hoped she knows what causes it.

    She's going for a termination next week which is hard to hear. I'm not judging her for her personal decision but it's just so frustrating when so many people on here have been trying for so long.

    QQ - hope you are OK and can make sure that DH is home when it matters - does he have any control on when he works away?

    Hope everyone enjoys the weekend.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Hi all. Been a while since I posted on here because to be honest there hasn't been anything to tell! (Still been reading the thread though). After months of no O, this was finally the month and am now 6DPO :) I couldn't be happier! It's funny because just a few days before I O'd I went to the docs to ask advice on TTC after being on Depo Provera and told him I am not OVing at all.

    Congrats to all the recent BFP's and ((hugs)) to all that need them today.

    Trying to live a good life on little money :T
  • Can anyone help me please as I'm confused this month with CBFM and OPK:)

    I had peak this morning on CBFM but when I used OPK later in the day it was negative (I had smiley face on OPK yesterday). Does it mean I'll ov in next 24 hours or its already gone?
