    Woohoooo Pinkshoes!!!!!!!!!

    Sorry to AF ladies, wine and choccies.

    I'm really, really trying not to symptom spot, but it's very difficult. I've been absolutely exhausted, with almost constant tightness/cramping, no creamy CM though just loads of watery, which isn't a good sign.

    Been so moody as well. Last night I was trying to watch TV and my mum was texting me, and I was literally so close to throwing my phone on the floor and bursting into tears. She was only making light conversation about a TV show, but each time the phone vibrated I started to see the red mist, I felt really embarrassed about how I was feeling.

    Trying to hold off testing for at least another week, I'm CD29 right now, but my cycles aren't normal 28 day cycles, and I have no idea when I OVed, so I think it's too early.

  • Congratulations pinkshoes! Hope this is your sticky bean, wishing you all the best x

    Commiserations to everyone with AF or bfns - vodka and Krispy Kremes all round x

    I've decided to stop thinking about ovulation. Checking cm is near impossible at the moment anyway, as we've been dtd in the mornings, opks are inconclusive and the Clomid clearly hasn't triggered anything within the expected timescale :( All we can do is keep bding as much as we can and wait for that temp rise, whether it be a couple of days or a couple of weeks. And then wait for AF and start all over again (I'm in a positive mood, can you tell? ;))

    I've not been tracking, counting or symptom spotting this month but I have been reading the thread, despite removing myself from the list :).

    I just wanted to share something I came across last night, which I've found absolutely fascinating:

    http://hormonehoroscope.com/

    The site shows how our moods, etc. change through our cycles and I've found it describes me to a tee - including the bit about worrying about finances! For years, DH has always known that I get anxious about our finances at least once a month and now I finally know why.

    Anyway, I'd best get back to work. Procrastination is my friend today :(.

    I am very much hoping for a third time lucky sticky bean.

    I shall also say "au revoir", just in case I am back again...
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    Congratulations pink shoes.

    I've had a bfn, I was really hopeful this was the month especially after the way I felt over the weekend. Just waiting for AF now so we can start on cycle 4

    CD26, 4 days until the arrival of AF and I tested again - still BFN. Not going to test again this month, as two BFNs is not only pretty conclusive, it's also pretty depressing! Going to drown myself in alcohol and junk food for a fortnight now and see if that cheers me up. Starting with an entire pack of cookies for breakfast ;)

    Today's Glow poll was "Do you discuss TTCing with your girlfriends?". Unfortunately, there was no option to select "No, but I do in graphic detail with people on the internet" :laugh:
