    Hello everyone, sorry I've been missing for a couple of weeks.

    I've become completely disillusioned with ttc, so decided to stop putting my life on hold, I've been doing really well - looking into qualifications to further my career instead of putting it off incase I get pregnant.

    But hubby has just come home with the news that one of our close friends is pregnant (fantastic news, as they've suffered 3 miscarriages previously) but now I just feel really sad again :(

    Congrats Goppers! :j

    Becca - yay for smiley faces! :T Great news that you got some good BDing in over the last few days. I've read that the days pre OV are the most important ones to hit.

    Had the most annoying bus journey home ever. Bus took AGES to come so i jumped on another one that stops in my town but not near my house. The journey then took about 4 times longer than usual and then icing on the cake I had to walk a mile from the stop in the pouring rain with no umbrella :rotfl: oh well, at least I'm home now! I did keep getting mental images of the inbetweeners and their "bus w@nkers" comments!

    Becca I'm happy you got your smiley face! Maybe your DH might feel better after a couple of hours nap & be able to bd later tonight or wake up really early tomorrow?

    Lol at bus wa&kers bex!

    Lou Lou glad you're back - sorry for the pregnancy announcement but at least you know it's someone who has suffered so much heartache so much better than the usual Jeremy Kyle types!

    Congrats goppers!

    Ah becca, I know exactly how you feel. Hugs. If it helps any you did bd on good days. It's rubbish when they don't cooperate. If I could get pg by myself, I so would.

    Earlier DH stole the frosting from the top of my French fancy. It was the last one and it was pink! I'm irrationally angry with him now.

    Code that's totally rational! DH knows not to touch my food!!!!

    I don't think I'll ov until tomorrow in which case it's too late. He's just such a prat. I haven't been moping in bed from my clomid side effects which in all honesty are much worse than his stupid cold!

    Men are such babies. Hugs. Do you think you can get a sneaky bd in morning? I usually have some luck with DH by catching him when he's sleepy. Hmm that doesn't sound rapey at all.

    I need some advice please. Got ewcm again. More than I'd expect almost a week after ov but cp is low and closed and opks are still negative. Ideas please? Am I having another stupid cycle?

    Congrats Goppers! Hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months :j

    159 - Don't worry, it's perfectly normal to get the odd pimple or small lump down there. If it's not gone in a couple of weeks then you can get it checked out.

    Becca - From what I understand you've been BD during your fertile window which is good. I've read that when trying to improve your chances of having a girl you should stop three days before ov, so it must still be decent ttc a day or two before ov.

    AFM - my hubbie gets his SA results tomorrow and I'm a bit nervous. I'm also sure he'll come out of his appointment and be unable to answer any of my questions. :)

    Also we decided after not being able to try last month to give it a real go this month. I decided that we'd BD every day from CD10, although mainly focussing once my CBFM had high readings. I usually have highs from CD11 and ov about CD17. Well here I am on CD14 and still no high or ewcm. My temperature has been massively fluctuating since my cycle began and I've just read that can be a sign of delayed ov, so hopefully it will happen soon as I can't handle two wasted months on the trot!
    Don't listen to me, I'm no expert!
