Code it is all so unfair this ttc journey isn't it.if we only new if/when we would get our miracle it would make the journey easier to bear.

The problem with FB is you don't know everyone's stories - the difficulties some of them have had. I know 2 'friends' who had treatment to get their babies and they are the only ones I know about. I don't feel as bad when I see pictures of their little ones. But there must be more.

Aargh, hope has taken me over like never before ladies. I'm not sure a wagging finger is going to do the trick!

Am 7dpo and so stupidly convinced (for absolutely no reason) that we've done it this time. Am in for one hell of a fall later on this week.

fingers crossed tea lover.

Morning ladies, how is everyone today?

PM - when's your next scan to check how things are going? Hope you've been keeping up the good work with the BDing lol.

Hi Tea

All good here thanks. CD10 so BDing starts Wednesday! Going to give it a go this month with some conceive plus. See if that helps the little swimmers to get to the right place.

Funny how this thread is quiet over the weekend and picks up when we're all at work!

littleme - hope the conceive plus does the trick

Am now 8dpo and still utterly convinced that I'm pg. AF is going to be a hard kick in the stomach this time. Really wish I could get my hope under control. I never usually get like this, I'm usually far more realistic about our chances (ie. non-existent).

Am still getting annoyed by adverts lol, and by people saying stupid things like "as a parent". It's everywhere now... stop it people! Have just got narked at a post on here where someone had posted something like "as a mum, if you don't understand what a doctor has hold you, please ask them". Seriously?! !!!!!! has that got to do with being a mother??

OK... and breathe....

Hey ladies,

Good luck little me with this cycle, and I'm sorry to hear of the shock you had. Your situation is quite similar to ours in that we thought OH was fine, and were told his samples had come back quite low in everything. However the Dr at the hospital didn't seem as concerned about this as our GP did. The results to me looked dire, but they don't seem worried!

PM - hope your doing okay this week! That is amazing news that you've had a little follie!! When will you know more?

Hi tea - I can sympathise with that feeling, when's AF due?

AFM:

CD12 here, done my 150mg of clomid this cycle and it's just a waiting game now. Didn't get chance to BD over the weekend because OH was on night shift this week but hopefully over the next 7-10 days we can get busy and be in with a chance! Blood test is booked for 23rd October.
Mentally I'm not doing as good this month as last, I'm feeling like there is this massive mountain to climb, and there is no promise of our goal and dream at the end of it!
Steadily losing faith in Clomid when I thought that it really would work for us. Our review is in early January so I'm just looking towards that as a point in our journey when a decision will have to be made.
Our emotions are so cruel with the hope that this will work and be our month and then when it's not its so crushing.
I wish others could understand the pain.

It's in our minds constantly isn't it - never goes away. I hate this :-(

Oh and I HATE the Johnson's advert!!!
