    Hi ladies!

    Becca can you put me down as 4DPO.

    My first month of using CBFM gave me peaks so hoping thats a good sign!

    High temps and super sore boobs already, the next 8 days will be long (if my LP stays as 12 days!).

    Going to be really hard to not pee on a stick, promised myself I wont test until next Saturday!

    Hi Ladies, ooh i've been a little absent recently, i've been dealing with health issues *Boooo* and was diagnosed with Sleep Apnoea yesterday, so i have to wait now to be fitted with a beautiful mask for sleeping to aid my breathing, it will basically make me look like an elephant at bedtime..... I'm dubbing it 'The Passion Killer'

    I hope everyone is well and not feeling too blaaah today :o

    I'm CD10 today.
    Last months ended up being a 34day cycle

    Being taken for a meal tonight, shame it's at the Trafford Centre but hay ho fooooood!!

    I first went to the drs in July, they agreed to scan me in nov and then I finally had my scan in January.

    Was the time between the drs and the scan mainly a 'wait a bit' thing like pickles?

    I'm just hoping for starters I get a dr who doesn't start with some 'now have sex on cd14' rubbish!

    Weather is gorgeous today spent most of the morning outside!

    I've only been there once but thought it was such an odd place, all Roman-style (or was it Greek?) ever so tacky! Nice shops though :D

    I have spent the morning in the garden centre, and the afternoon so far fibbing to DH about how much I spent there, and will be spending the rest of the afternoon doing some overtime (at home) to actually pay for it.

    I'm posting because I need to get how I feel off my chest but it is very woe is me so you might want to move on.

    Having a real grumpy day today.

    Today is the two year anniversary of us trying for a baby. So that alone is pretty sh*t.

    Hubby finally did his sperm analysis the other day and then had a phone call from his doctor yesterday to say the lab had said there was no sperm in the semen. It could be that too much time elapsed from when he produced the sample to when they analysed it so he's having to do it again. But of course he's worried (and today I'm also starting to worry) that there's a problem.

    Then I find out today that my SIL who recently started trying for a baby (and I'm dreading the day there's an announcement) has had a procedure that identified endometriosis and had some of the adhesions removed. I've read that can help to improve pregnancy chances. Now I know I'm being an evil cow but I just can't help but feel like she's jumped 20 paces ahead of me and I feel really bitter about it. We're talking about 2 years versus a matter of months of trying and I know it doesn't work like that but it should be me next.

    Hubby just doesn't seem to understand why I'm feeling so upset today. I think it's just bad timing with regards to the anniversary and me feeling particularly sensitive about the whole issue. So now we've fallen out. We'll be fine later but at the moment I'm just really angry with him (and I'm sure he's angry with me too).

    I just have this feeling of dread today. I can't see us ever getting pregnant and unfortunately I think there are factors that mean that we'll never be able to adopt. I know I can't predict the future but at the moment I just feel as though my future is going to be a childless one. I know it wont be the end of the world but it's still a pretty depressing thought.

    Claire my dr was good in the end (not the one I saw when I got my results though!) and when the hospital cocked up my appt (sent letter to the wrong address) really fought my corner. Think that's why it took so long! Lucky really in that my hospital do weekend scans.

    fannyanna huge hugs to you. Sometimes life is so unfair xxx

    Fannyanna - Big big hugs. I do understand how you are feeling. I haven't been posting because I am at a bit of a low point atm. The one round of clomid I got perscribed failed and now the IVF assessment is getting closer and to honest I don't want to go. Clomid gave me really big mood swings at the end of my cycle and now there is a weird atmosphere in our house (all my fault:() and I am dreading what IVF drugs will do to my body and our relationship. Seriously want to cancel the appointment right now.

    To top it off my younger brother and his girlfriend are happily gearing up for their baby and showing scan pictures to anyone who stands still for long enough. They have only been together a year vs the 4 years I have been with OH. Its not fair and I am also and evil grumpy witch.:mad:
