    Sorry to hear youre having a bad day firefly.

    I dont know if anyone else has seen random friends on facebook talking about being at the Baby Show this weekend, ive had two so far, one already has a baby, but the 2nd one now Im wondering are they pregnant as the comment they wrote is really ambigious?? Its not someone Im properly friends with or anything - but just one of those 'everyone is pregnant apart from me' things!

    When we were in Venice we were doing this walk around this building and one of the women in our group I noticed was probably about 6 months gone. From that minute I felt this totally irrational hatred towards her. When the tour finished I said to DH did you see that lady she looked so pregnant I wonder how she managed going up all the steep stairs etc, and he said 'she was pregnant??'

    So clearly men dont notice these things!

    FF also has some useful info on cm and general stuff about your cycle. You can pay to get the vip option but you dont need to do this, the free one is fine.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Congrats on your +OPK Lara! I got so excited this month too!

    Hugs for CD1 ruth xx

    Feel so crap tonight. Yet another FB announcement. I've got cramps, feel heavy like AF is coming, DH has irritated the hell out of me all day and I'm bloody knackered!

    loulou hugs to you. My DH is not a great talker either x

    Hi tinks xx Hope you are ok xx

    Hugs to you firefly xx

    Claire I have a pregnancy radar and I hate it! Horrible isn't it?!

    Congrats to those that got positive pregnancy test! Hope you have a smooth pregnancy.
    Sorry to those the witch got.

    I'm sorry to those going through a bad time. Really hope things pick up.

    Becca don't worry that you missed me out a while ago. You have a lot going on and missing me out isn't a bad thing, lol. Just wanted to try and help keep the list up to date.

    AFM I'm confused as to if AF is trying to show her ugly head or not. I've been getting very light spotting for around 24 hours now both very light and what looks like old blood. I'm wearing a pad just so my undies don't get ruined because although not a lot it would mark them.
    My temps went down 3 days in a row ending up just 0.03C above my coverline of 36.25C but went up again yesterday (36.43) and this morning (36.57).
    So I am 14DPO/CD26 so far when last cycle all I managed was 9DPO/CD22 although that was my weirdest and shortest cycle since trying. I average 26 days so in theory today should be AF but my longest is 28 days.
    FF has a testing date of the 1st of March for me. Although I very much want to I don't have much hope. I just think AF is playing with me. If no AF by the 1st I will test.

    Those getting sneak or bombshell pregnancy announcements here is a hug :grouphug:, lol that is a funny looking 'hug'. I had a suprise annoncement before I got my OH to agree to no contraception to ntnp/ttc. Seeing how down I was etc was one of the reasons we talked and he agreed. I thought we'd be pregnant before the baby was born but the baby is 2 months old now and nothing. Cycle 8 of trying and I am sure cycle 9 is around the corner. August seems so long ago now.

    ETA - WOW 10 positives so far! February is another bumper month. Amazing! I'm so glad my prediction of 5 was wrong. Hoping we can get more for this month still.
    2 adults groceries: June £35.79/£200

    Aww huge hugs to you and your OH Loulou. I'm sure is feeling a bit sensitive on all counts today.

    It sounds like getting it all out in the open might be a big step towards getting SA. At least you can reassure him about your relationship now you know how he's feeling. Would it be too much to explore how you would both feel about other possible options, such as ICSI, or sperm donation? If he thinks that there are other options it might take the pressure off, and he would know you were both approaching it together as a couple?

    Thanks for kind words :D

    He has made it clear he wouldn't even consider sperm donation as an option (though his feelings might change, if it became the only option I guess.) I can understand him feeling this way and dont blame him for this way of thinking.

    But whatever happens, I'd never let it split us up, as he means to much to me for that to happen.

    I guess I look at it that I want to know where we stand, and if we can't have children, then we can try and move on, but he doesn't want to know as he'd rather hope its a possibility then know its never going to happen.

    Haven't brought it up again, as he's feeling very delicate today.

    Hugs firefly sorry to hear your feeling down x. Hugs also for those the witch caught too.

    Doing my first day of slimming world today cos I can't keep ignoring the fact my cloths are all a bit too tight (blaming the tumble drier only works for so long ) feeling positive to be actually doing something to help myself and interested to see how long my lp is now I'm on the full dose of ac.

    Hope you don't mind me asking, how much Agnus castus do you take and when in the month do you take it?

    Argh, I had that at the end of last cycle. Spotted on and off for 4 days before af arrived. I only normally spot for 12-24 hours.

    Hope af doesn't visit x
