    You're not out yet MancMama! Fingers crossed AF stays away :)


    Does anyone sometimes feel like they can't believe they're not pregnant yet? I know I'm not, but I just feel like I should be because I had sex and everyone knows sex leads to babies :mad:

    Anyways, CD14 today. Last month I ov'd on cd17 but FF predicts cd16 this month so trying a sort of SMEP without OPKs. We're just trying to BD everyday until I get a temp change.

    BD'd CD13 and CD14 so far. I know some advice says to BD every other day but that hasn't gotten us anywhere yet so while I'm on school holidays we're trying a bit harder!

    The other day an acquaintance asked if there was a baby on the way yet and then asked 'why not?' when we said no. Felt like yelling at him!

    Big hugs to everyone who needs them at the moment. I currently feel like we just have to keep on plodding on and see where this journey takes us. Strangely calm for me!

    I totally get you... and I feel like a year ago this month I was really naive when we had the conversation that yes, I would stop taking the pill so we could go for it in September as even if I was pregnant at our wedding, no one would be able to tell... so naive!

    Was watching Sex and the City this week and although I always loved Charlotte York the most - I feel like she and I totally get each other now!

    Your colleague is a big meanie by the way, big hugs xx

    Oh wow, I feel I need to rewatch that series of SATC now so I can identify with Charlotte!

    No joy for me.

    Mother nature is a cruel woman. AF due today, woke up and no sign of it when wiping so I peed in a jar and dipped but a BFN :( and then as soon as I got to work AF appeared. Wasn't expecting a positive but had hopes up as had no signs of AF. C'est la vie. Finger's crossed for August.

  • Hard luck MancMama & Flutterby. Focus on chocolate and fun BDing from next week.

    CD23 9 DPO here. Had like a taut feeling today - not related to bowels or exercise classes (too many crunches feels similar at resting state) but not like AF cramps either. Creamy CM continues but a bit wetter than last week. Ap thinks AF is due on 5th August and I'm still following my self-imposed rule of only poas when I'm one week late so I've got either 7 days or 14 days to hold out for.

    Please can I join? Oh and me are now on month 10 of ttc and I am feeling rather despondent. In this time so many friends/ family have had success it is becoming rather heartbreaking!
