    A bit late but congrats Claire - really pleased for you

    And congrats ttc39

    Mrs T_M - cookies sound great

    Part Mouse - hope someone can help with your question, am hoping you have better news in months to come

    Hugs for all those on CD1 or with the witch imminent (I think she is on her way to me)

    Congrats TTC39.

    CD13 here and as I normally ov somewhere between CD17 and CD19 we should be BDing now. Kind of feels like we're going through the motions now though. I've told DH that we have to BD every other day this month instead of every day to see if that helps at all.

    Got a repeat SA booked in for 31 July.

    Sorry I've not been around much. Been a bit down about the whole thing to be honest, have been a bit hysterical more than once but trying very hard to just get on with things.

    Hugs all round :) especially to Part Mouse, I've got nothing useful to tell you but I do truly sympathise and send you lots of love xxx

    *hugs* to those that need them.
    blah, boobs feel like they are up to my chin this cycle on clomid and cramping. Not due AF till wed/thur. Expecting Af soon by CM.
    Will continue to avoid patients that grab, like I have the last couple of days.

    Code - yeay for potential CD1 (this one and only time!)

    Have just been having a moan about TTC generally (man is it more complicated than I thought it was going to be!) to one of my best friends via email who is also TTC and she gave me this advice which I thought I would share with you all:

    "If it helps, don't read the NHS website ("just have loads of s8x - it'll be fine!"!!!), the really sh8t scary medical books ("statistically speaking, your fertility halves at 34* *statistics based on 17th century birth rates among the farming community in rural France") or the crazy Chinese medicine ones either (after lots of research, I am still not sure if I have an issue with my Qi or if I am a Cold or Damp type!!!). Read a book called "The impatient woman's guide to getting pregnant" - you can download it on Kindle via Amazon for a fiver - very normal, very entertaining and very pragmatic!!"

    Tootles off to Amazon.....

    Right - I admit it - I downloaded it yesterday.... Started reading it - its actually a book which is leaving me feel positive (especially for us over 35s;))
    A lot of the advice you know already but doesn't help to have it reinforced. Put it this way - Im reducing caffeine from today and upping my vitamin c intake!!!

    Congratulations ttc39!!!
    (((Hugs))) PM. x
    CD10 for me today so not a lot going on. An unfortunate confrontation at what should have been a lovely family event yesterday (OH's family, not mine!) has left me shaken and upset so I'm just going to take it easy and enjoy time with DD today.
    Take care all. X
