Massive hugs to everyone who needs them. This TTC malarky is a bit cr*p sometimes isn't it

Just quickly bobbing in to say hello. Entering the unbearable 1WW tomorrow where every inch of you is thinking about POAS. I think scientists should do research on the abandonment of all reason in the days past ovulation, I for one turn in to a line-eyed lune. Don't worry, I'm not testing at 7DPO...8 maybe?

Iv been trying nearly 14 months. Think af Is on its way really bad stabbing pains in stomach worse than I have ever had

ThinkPink

Just a quick hello.

Hope you are all well.

Hugs to those having a hard time at the moment.

We've been ttc for about 13 months now, I came off the pill August 2013, had my pill period and have since had really irregular cycles!! I am currently only on my 5th cycle as they are so pants!!

I do have to say though, I've surprised myself at overall how I've been so far!! This journey is so so hard, but I feel that I've approached it the right way for myself and my coping strategies, and although I've had one melt down (I put it down to a really long cycle and hormones!!) I've learnt that I really need to try and not let it rule my life. I have a wonderful husband, a great family and fab friends, a job I really enjoy and a place to call home, and whilst a baby would be the best thing to add to this list, I can only do so much and whats meant to be will be. (I still have so much hope that it will happen one day).

Well AF showed her head today. At least we can try again this cycle and had a 'normal' length cycle at 29 days so hopefully body back to normal (fingers crossed)

For a couple of weeks you don't want AF to show up then once you know its not your month you wish she'd hurry up so you can try again. We're strange creatures.

So can I be dropped back down the list to CD1 please wine and chocolates :A

skaps

I had back pain and stomach pain yday. Really thought AF had started but it hadn't. Bought a pregancy test but doubt I'm pregnant.

Got my referral to Barts next week.

Skaps - have you done the test?

skaps

Yes just now and nothing. A bfn. I've over 10 says late which I haven't been since before I had a polyps. Probably the polyps is back.

Ah sorry to hear about BFN Skaps and AF White as Snow.
It's such a rollercoaster this TTC lark!

Bobley

Seems we're all having a bit of a crap time lately:(

I woke up with lower back pain and just the Af 'feeling' not due til Saturday but it's not looking good this month, trying not to be disappointed as its only our first month and I'm aware that it could be a long journey, just sucks.

So sorry about BFN Skaps
Hugs for AF White as Snow

Oh Bobley, I was the same. I knew I wouldn't catch first month but it doesn't take the disappointment away.

OH has had his bad back flare up since last Wednesday. we DTD on Saturday (but not properly...because of his back, catch my drift.) so I'm hoping it's better today because I should be ov this week and already had some ewm.

As for my grumpiness I spoke to OH last night and we figured out that I'm so sad about the engagement because it means that their plans of marrying in Vegas are coming true which means I won't be there to see her get married, which really upsets me. With the move we aren't even going on a beach holiday as a couple next year (BIG sacrifice for us!) so no way can we afford a trip to Vegas, and if we do catch soon I'll either be heavily pregnant and unable to fly, or we will have a baby and I am not taking them on a long haul flight, nor am I depending on OHs parents to look after it for a week as that's unfair!


I am feeling better though. As a way for me to have some form of control I've looked at my diet and I've managed to cut out all of the rubbish I eat at work which is great for this pre-baby bod!
