    claire that is an awful thing to happen to your poor friend :( Likewise abis, I really hope your friends baby fights the odds.

    Can I just echo what other's have said about pregnancy being really terrifying. I'm not enjoying it one little bit, and am convinced that it is all going to go wrong.

    I have a 2nd early scan this Friday to check viability, and I am really scared.

    I've got my fingers, toes everything crossed for you!! I really really want this to work for you.

    What is the best or most reliable ovulation calculator? Lots of different sites and apps give u different dates and I've just worked out that since aug I have been Bding on the wrong days!

    Based this on the bbc calculator and p tracker app which said the same thing. I had been using only the my days app and due to this being wrong and the irregular periods of late don't want to mess it up this month.

    Lily is right you can't use these to predict ovulation they're only a computer going on averages. If your cycles change they can't read into the future so they will always be wrong.

    You need to use opks and temping and check mucus. I only use fertility friend to input my temps & confirm ovulation. I don't pay any attention to when it says my fertile time is.

    Happy New Year ladies! :j

    Before I forget, I predict 6 BFPs for January. :)

    Welcome hopes :wave:

    Been at the doctor's this morning for an internal which was perfectly timed as I started spotting this morning so AF is on the way, just glad it held off until after I'd had a stranger poking around down there (she said everything looks and feels OK though so that's good)! :o She tried to take blood to check my testosterone levels (for PCOS) but my veins weren't having any of it but she had such a wiggle and a poke in both arms that they're now feeling super sore! :( Have to go back to see the phlebotomist on Friday morning for another go. I've got my scan on Wednesday morning and the doctor is referring me to the fertility clinic. :eek: So much to deal with all at once! _pale_

    I hope my CBFM arrives today so I can start playing with it. :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Boooo katy - Hope your day isn't too bad. I'm back tomorrow but working from home today (ie spending time looking at pinterest & house ideas!). Good luck for testing on Monday :)

    Birdie - glad you got on OK at Docs - hope that you get PG before referral with your new CBFM!

    Amus - hugs for CD1 xx

    Welcome hopes - my DH will only listen to so much of my TTC related talk (or pretends to!) - this thread has been amazing for that. And all the ladies are so lovely x

    Code - you've inspired me to write my PMA list. Love to you xx

    Abis - I've looked into homeopathy so will follow you on this one :D

    Soooo my PMA today is:
    1. I AM going to get pregnant this year! New year, new start.
    2. I have at least 2 herbal remedies to try to regulate my cycles which I will start from CD1 (me and soy are no longer friends)
    3. I am having investigations done which if they show nothing is great as I know that is one thing to rule out, but if they do show something then at least I know what I am dealing with.
    4. I have this amazing thread for support and a laugh at my crazy line eye :rotfl:

    Good Morning ladies

    can I predict 7 this month please

    Started taking my agnus castus and Vit B complex tablets now so we'll see if they have any effect on my ridiculously short lp, fingers crossed.

    Just a friendly warning to any who decide to take vit b6 boy oh boy does it make your wee luminous. Luckily I'd read somewhere about this otherwise I would have been really freaked out!

    Hugs to those who are suffering at the moment and hello hopes may your stay be short x
