    Not sure if we could do it in the morning it would have to be so early unless it was a Sunday. Hmmmmm.

    I feel I am worrying too much; not about the becoming pregnant but morning sickness! I had it terrible with my son who is now nearly 9. But I was 18 then and I wonder if it was too with my age although I am sure its more to do with the chemicals. I know they say that no pregnancy is the same and morning sickness is a good sign but the last time I was pregnant (I lost this baby at 12 weeks 1 day before my scan :( in february 2011)

    I am sure I have read things about diet etc. I must not worry about this yet. I just have all the memories of 2011 in my mind all the time and it has taken me this long to get the whole experience something I can talk about. People have said some heartless things in the past such as - 'it was just cells'. People just do not understand. I think the first 12 weeks if I do fall will be a real strain on me.

    Anyway onwards and upwards I am due on the 3rd so here goes on whether AF turns up :o

    Lots of love samtoby, people can be so awful when they're trying to be helpful and pregnancy after loss will always be hard but there's lots of our graduates who have had a loss and then had a lovely healthy pregnancy and it'll be so worth it in the end as I'm sure you know from having your son x x

    Huge congratulations to the BFP :D hope you all have a perfect 9 months.

    Late Friday night I got my AF - can I be updated to CD3 please?

    It caught me completely by surprise but seems like a normal period, and all the cramping and pains have gone. I'm still going to make an appointment at docs this week just to get a 2nd opinion.

    Weird thing is I got the positive ov test on Friday morning too - I'm now wondering if I actually ovalate during AF - if this is even possible?? My DH will not contemplate BDing during this time (not that I'd really want to either!) So if I'm ovulating at this time every month its going to be a problem.

    I always thought the ov test was showing positive at roughly middle of cycle, but its always been a "sketchy" positive. (which I thought was due to my pcos.) Hmmmm.

    Opk was positive again. Lesson learned -don't stop bd after positive until temp has gone up properly. Now all that bd we did before wasn't even at the right time :mad: just gonna have to do it 3 days in a row all over again. Just wished we hadn't just had a 4 day gap. God this is so frustrating. No wonder I've had so many spots in the last few days. Plus I was really moody yesterday. I guess I must have geared up to ovulate on cd23 but then the egg was never actually released?

    Samtoby -I had bad morning sickness and had a miscarriage too. Who knows what will happen next time but being sick for days on end really is horrible but I think next time ill just be so happy to be pregnant, even more than last time!

    TCD, not sure, just think it's not as this is now the 3rd SA that has come back low. Just have to sit and wait :(
    Get BDing Claire.

    Claire - I find that happens to me quite a lot. Its like my body gets ready to ov and then the egg refuses to jump. And it's always when we've timed it perfectly for the first LH surge. It's like the egg refuses to come out if nasty boy sperm are there. So frustrating. Hugs. At least you caught it though so you can BD again.

    DH has also asked that I let him know when I'm oving so he doesn't mess it up and we've agreed that he's not allowed to use any excuses not to BD. I feel a bit rapey!!

    I knew it could happen but because it never has out of the 20 odd months I've been temping I wasn't expecting it! I thought this month was a bit weird as I didn't have normal ov signs though. So fingers crossed this is it. Just tired at the thought of all the bd over next couple of days lol! And annoyed I'm ovulating so much later than last month. And I'd feel better if we had done it yesterday to cover all bases.

    That's brilliant he seems to have had a change of heart? Maybe this is the change you needed to make it happen!

    I think the uncontrollable crying yesterday scared him. It's not really his fault. I don't communicate my feelings very well, and neither does he, so weird as it seems, he didn't know how upset I was and just assumed that we weren't doing it at the right time, despite the fact that he told me not to tell him when I'm oving. Now he really knows how I feel, it can only help, even if it means we had a difficult day yesterday.

    Maybe I've infected you with my dodgy ovaries. Or perhaps the crazy weather? This cycle has been a mess for me too.
