    Sorry. Resuming normal service now.

    PM - so so sorry about AF. Huge hugs. Very tough, but hopefully they learned a lot this cycle for you and will help next time. But that's no help now I know.

    And hugs also mrsdavo. Bad news is so hard to take.

    TL - no talk of car accidents please! We are here for support, and don't forget you can talk to friends if you find the strength. I'm a big advocate of that as you know - talking to others released me from stressful misery, and while it doesn't get rid of the fundamental problem of TTC, I promise it does help.

    Hugs to anyone I missed. Typing on the phone.

    AFM, nothing happening of course as I now have contraception in place! Just in Dublin waiting for a delayed flight home.

    T2d I don't think anything was learnt this cycle really just the egg takes so long to come my lining comes away :( and I'm a seriously rubbish responder. Hope your flight comes soon.

    Sorry for AF Part Mouse.

    Continuing the rubbish theme, today DH spoke to the doctor again and it's not good news. He needs to have blood hormone tests because of the "absence of sperm" in his samples. So essentially we're a bit screwed aren't we?

    Had a wee cry on him earlier but I'm devastated. I knew there had to be a reason it wasn't happening but I was hoping it was my dodgy ovulation.

    :(:(

    Code - Hopefully the blood hormone tests are to determine the root cause and can be used to plan the next step. I hope that you & your DH are ok.

    Part Mouse - What a bad day you are having. I know from my experience that DH & I deal with AF disappointment in different ways, he goes grumpy and I go sad. I hope you can get back on track asap, as it sounds like you need some tlc x

    Afm, night in with the remote as DH out with work, cat on knee, no sign of AF yet but. on a normal cycle it is anywhere between CD29-33 and who knows how the Clomid will affect it. Only BD once this cycle so not expecting anything at all.... It's quite nice that the pressure is off for a month in a perverse way.

    Hugs to all x

    Can you text him and ask him to come back? Then make yourself a yummy chocolatey snack, have some wine and I'll send the dog over for a hug.
