Been in hiding for a week or so and there is so much to catch up on.

Congrats t2d. So pleased for you

Congrats to all the bfp and hugs to all that need them

Afm not much has happened just waiting and waiting for ov. That's all I seem to do is wait. Oh and I are away in different locations this weekend. Just hoping I ov next week. With last 2 cycles longer than they have ever been I don't know.

I'm not going to post in the next few weeks but I will still be lurking. Just trying to forget we are ttc for now as the last 2 months have gotten me down,

Hmm we weren't too impressed with the conceive plus. DH said 'er it's not very slimey is it?' We were both laughing as it was sticky and put us right off for a minute -all I had in my head was god this is more like stop conceiving!!

Sorry for everyone with screwy cycles I know how you all feel.

Just done day 2 of the couch to 5k. I'm actually enjoying it!

Hi all, well still 2 bars on cbfm, no bd last night as hubby was a right moody git for no apparent reason :-(. Seem s ok today so hopefully might try later.

I haven't got to grips with fertility friend at all... I'm using health and parenting fertility app which is great for period tracking.. And does give other info which obviously unless I fall pregnant not sure how accurate :-(

So blinking cold here today, roll on summer eh!

Hope you are all ok, hugs to everyone feeling down and becca once again thanks for lists x

Arrrgghhh. My best friend told me she's pregnant. I'm happy for her because she thought they'd have trouble conceiving but it only took a couple of cycles but at the same time it made me realise that we've been at this a long time without any success and it's not going to happen and once again, I'm being left behind.

Part of me is happy but I want to lock myself away and cry too.

sorry to hear that code, no matter how close it always seems so unfair. Actually sometimes being so close is harder as you can't distance yourself. Xx

Claire I love cp! I guess not for all though did you use a lot? It doesn't need much x

I feel like a human lighting conductor at the moment. First the weird uterus (es?), then the OH in hospital, then a sackable mistake in work which is stressing me out beyond belief. Now I can't have clomid in May as OH SA came back as poor so his consultant has referred us straight to IVF with ICSI (with a pointed look at me telling me I wasn't getting any younger... I'm 29).

I am devastated. I truly didn't think TTC would be this tough. I physically recoil at seeing ladies with babies/ pregnant and I know that the odds of me ever conceiving now are much lower. I know they've made great advances with IVF and all that jazz but honestly- who wants to go through that? Besides, it's not like we've been on the good side of the statistics at all for the past couple of months and I don't know how or if I'll deal with IVF cycles failing....

I don't know what to do anymore. I feel like I'm coming apart at the seams. I'm crying at the stupidest things, I'm permanently on the verge of throwing up with the stress of it all and I am utterly terrified.

Sorry. Just had to say it before my head imploded.

That moment when you realise that your only chance of a baby is IVF is a very difficult one. It's the end of your hopes that your fertility alone is enough.

But.. as someone who's been through IVF/ICSI (and IUI) four times, don't give up. It's not what anyone would choose but you quickly adapt and it's easier than you think it will be. Don't worry too much about your odd-shaped uterus - the consultant wouldn't have recommended IVF/ICSI if there wasn't a chance you could carry a baby successfully.

It's worth it. A million times over. Freddie's eight months old now. Trust me, it's worth it x.
