    Evening all :wave:

    Just spending the evening in with the dogs as DH is out and I couldn't be bothered to go with him :o

    CD14 today and DTD last night. FF is suggesting three potential ov days (cd 16, 17, 18) but my temps are all over the place this month. I somehow forgot to temp cd 7, 8 and 9 and since then my temps have been really high compared to the previous two months.

    It's all so confusing when you attempt to over-analyse every tiny aspect of ttc :o

    I cracked the other day and told my mum we've been trying for 6 months. I don't know why I was so reluctant to tell her because I know they tried for a year for me. She was very understanding but I suppose I just wanted to tell her some good news ''Surprise...!''

    Ah well, good luck everyone :)

    Cd3 here, knew it was not our month. Hope we get lucky on our 7th cycle like we did last time. No pressure! Does run the risk of having a baby on my birthday though

    CD23 here, 6dpo. We are at the in laws this weekend, and sister in law announced her second pregnancy yesterday. They fell on their first try both times. That's not what's annoyed me though, but everybody saying they were expecting us to say 'us too!' Grrr

    Hope you all had a lovely weekend. I think I ovulated on CD12, and we BD on 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15.

    Spoke to my old neighbour on friday and in our 5 minute conversation he asked if I was pregnant yet, why wasn't I pregnant yet, and told me that if DH was bored at work I should just have a baby as that will keep him occupied. He is a lovely guy but he knows we've been married for 12 years and that we've always wanted children. How hard is it to figure out that there's a good chance it's just not working out for us?

    Hi everyone.


    I'm back to joining now. Unfortunately we suffered a miscarriage at 6 weeks last week. We are still trying to get our heads around it.


    We've been advised not to start trying again for at least 1 month (although 2 months advised). We will see though as it is a long time to wait.


    Good luck to all those in the 2ww and to all those in the BD zone!

    Hi MovingUp :hello: Sorry to hear about the mc, sending loads hugs you're way & hoping you get your sticky bean soon.

    Cyantist & Milliebob, it never fails to amaze me how insensitive some people can be, hugs for you too.

    Lemon Tree, fx crossed for cycle 7 for you.

    CD 25 here. Feeling really crampy, AF due Friday, think she's letting me know she's on her way - WITCH :mad::mad:

    Spotting now as well, I think it's too early for AF, trying not to get my hopes up :eek:

    My AF is due Friday too angel, wouldn't it be nice to squeeze a couple of BFPs into August, I don't think we've had a single one this month!

    I'm having zero symptoms either way.

    I can be updated to 27 now whenever the lists are updated, it was my birthday in July.

    Really sorry to hear that MovingUp. Hope you and your OH are feeling okay.

    I had a birth announcement on Facebook yesterday. It was their 1 year wedding anniversary too. Eugh. 6 months since we got married and no sign of a BFP. On the bright side we are going on a city break to Copenhagen next month so have that to look forward to.

    Rock, I use Ovia as well. Last time it kept changing when my fertile period was supposed to be, although my cycle was very irregular, having just come off the pill. This month I'm much more regular, and Ovia has been consistent in when I'm fertile.

    Must be difficult trying to keep track of ov when app can't make it's mind up - I thought these apps were meant to help us out, not make things more difficult lol
