    Hi all my amazing lady bugs
    Sorry I have been MIA I have got an abscess & been in total agony :(
    Have decided not to follow any plans schedules or rule books this cycle and not to test to try and take some of the pressure ......................... and I have felt so poorly not been up for any baby making business....... CD12 today and fingers crossed the anti b's are starting to work as today is the first day I have been able to eat anything since friday.

    Congrats to all the BFP's huge hugs to all the CD1 ladies or those in need xxx
    If you can think it........it will happen

    Congrats Lannie! All the best :j

    Mistake I agree with all that's been said. Wouldn't worry about varying cycle lengths. I've been off the pill for 13 months (after being on it around 10 years!) and my cycles vary from 25 - 35 days. Annoying but normal :)

    Mrs T M ANY broccoli is too much broccoli in my opinion ;) Well done on the weight loss though - fab!

    I'm really struggling this 2ww for some reason. Had to fight the urge to poas this morning even though I'm only 6DPO :rotfl:

    Yay great news Lannie! Congratulations, hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months.

    Did you do anything different this month?


    Mrs Muffin xx

    Thanks everyone for the congrats :)

    Mrs Muffin - lots of sex! :T heheh, more seriously, I think my ovulation date is later in my cycle, so previous months we'd pretty much run out of steam by then. This month we managed to keep going a bit longer. I wish it were such a simple solution for everyone.

    YEAY Lannie, huge congrats - what CD did you have your negative result?

    xxx

    It was on Friday. I think yesterday I was CD31, so Friday I would have been CD29.

    I knew it Lannie, you don't need a test when you have us lot on here to tell you hehe! Xx

    I think I knew too really. But after the BFN on Friday I was trying very hard not to SS.

    Best of luck (and baby dust!) to everyone else who's testing soon...

    Yay congrats LannieDuck :j

    MrsTM - broccoli is very good for you so I can't imagine you could eat "too much". Well done on your healthy eating and weight loss! xx

    Tink - you poor thing with an abcess :( really hope that you feel better soon. xx Think you're idea for this month sounds like a great one! Hope it works for u xx

    Code - I agree with Claire....just set out the position and ask if there is anything they can do. When I went to the doctors I think he was more helpful because I seemed knowledgeable but maybe I'm just lucky to have a nice/good doctor.

    159 glad it's not just me that has that problem....! I have a load of IC tests so that I can indulge my poas obsession to my hearts content :) not sure I've ever gone as early as 6dpo tho! Fingers crossed for when you do test! :)

    Sjlou - good luck for testing later this week! Xx

    Another thing - if you've only been aiming your efforts around ov since may, depending how often you've been bding since January it's perfectly possible you just never bd at the right time either. Obviously if you're bding every couple of days you will have but if not (and I don't think there's many of us who do it that often!) it's likely you weren't in with a shot every single month anyway so chances are you just need more time.

    I'm pretty sure I'm out this month I don't think my temps are high enough but this afternoon I had an awful wave of nausea but think it was more just my ibs which always flares up before AF!!
