    Hello ladies. I'm going to leave the forum. Can you please take me off the list QQ. No offence to any of you but it seems to have changed since when I first joined. In addition, I just don't feel part of it any more.
    Good luck on your journeys all.
    Gemma

    Please come back and tell us of your BFP when you get one :)

    I'm sorry if I've been to honest in my posts today and other days since my return to the thread.

    I will stick to making more optimistic posts from now on

    Aw don't be sorry. I feel a little out of it as I'm not really sure of everyones history apart from QQ. I'm slowly picking it up though.

    I don't think I'm in luck this month, gone really moody, but to be honest I think OH caused that, and have period pains now. AF hasn't arrived yet, but is due in a few days, knowing my luck it will be the first time its on time for ages. Is it bad that I want it to be late, not just because of the smallest chances of pregnancy, but so I'm not on the blob on xmas day. I could cope with it if I was at home, but I am at my aunt's all day and evening and as there's only me and my sister of that age when we have these certain functions, I think I am going to be looked at wierdly by carrying a bag into her loo!!! Sorry completely and utterly random comment I know.
    I totally understand that. I was hoping my AF would hold till after Christmas too. Looks like it's definitely going to be CD1 tomorrow, so will still be heavy on Sunday :( Oh well.

    I once had my boss ask me why I kept taking my bag with me to the toilet! I told him I was on my period and needed to change my tampon! That'll teach him.

    Only a man would ask that! How embarassing - although I guess more for him after you said that!

    Sa-ra-ra – so happy to see that your TLP has turned into a BFP. Congratulations and try not to worry (although I know it’s practically impossible) x

    Zippy – sorry you’re really struggling with your nerves at the moment (it really does sound awful). I remember taking my Husbands SA to the hospital for drop off. His also travelled in my cleavage lol.

    Sexymouse – turn OH being away into a positive. You get to sleep like a starfish J

    Teamlowe – Grrrr for your Dr’s appointment.

    Kitten_Pie – your story about your bad appointment is just beyond belief. I think I would have drop kicked the Dr.

    Mrsj28 – hope your OH is suitably distracted by your underwear ;-)

    TTC40 – good luck for your appointment x

    Gizmodo – hugs for the imminent AF x

    Secretdebts – I’m intrigued (ok nosey) about this new forum.

    Colli – glad you’re doing well x

    Nicki – sending you lots of hugs

    AbFab – ooooh winter wonderland sounds lovely.

    Gizmodo, could you be 11DPO?
    Who knows. I'm so annoyed that I just relied on my cycle being like it was pre-preg that it looks like I totally missed ov by a week. Still, I've started temping now, just wish I'd done it last month. Mission get pg before going back to work has failed :( Mainly because AF didn't actually come back soon enough, but also my non existent libido is not helping.

    Morning all. Not long until Christmas.
    visited docs yesterday and he was not worried. He will check my cervix after AF visits next week. He said it could be my hormones. No more bleeding since Tuesdays 2nd bleed but I have a bad stomach and a heavy cramping feeling. Oh well who said ttcing is easy.
    Good to hear he's not worried.

    Has anyone else had similar experiences or can anyone offer any advice?
    Not much to add to others, but you could try having the odd night where you don't DTD and do other things IYSWIM, then he'll know for definite that it's not just for BDing. :o

    ...We usually BD about two-three times a week, but sometimes only once during the week if we are both busy and tired, so I know that I need to be keeping an eye out for the right time!
    I am not showing this to OH. He'll feel ever so hard done by. Wow I'm a terrible wife. I'm not even going to admit to how un-often we do it :o Oh damn...it's on my FF chart lol

  • Hi everyone

    AF has arrived here today and I'm glad, I can put this disastrous month behind me and focus on the next cycle :j. I've decided that I have to fall pregnant in the next three months so I have a baby before next Christmas, DD is 9 and this will be the last year she'll believe in Santa so I need another child to do it all again :D. Good luck to everyone else this month xx

    Ive never heard this before. Ive only ever read or heard you shouldnt go for a smear when your on AF?

    Id rather BD and move the smear test back a few days.
    Me too. I think I was told once to leave it 7 days after the last blood just to be certain as the blood can ruin the results and mean you have to have it done again. Don't know if that's true or not.

    Can I join you? I want to be able to say to myself that I won't have to go back to work after 2012.
