Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 12

MancMama4

Thank you both, that's actually really helped, it's amazing how this process can bring out a side of us we never knew existed! I'm definitely not even having tests in the house from now on... Too tempting X

MancMama - we're all with you! At this stage (pre OV) I am confidently predicting "I will not test before AF due this month". Roll forward to this time next week and I'll be POAS before the morning alarm goes off...

Welcome Mrsftobe hope your stay here is short :hello:

Hugs MancMama, it's so easy to feel like your losing the plot ttc, I think we've all probably been there at some stage.

Don't worry mancmama, you really are not alone!

I treated even when I knew I'd have to be named Mary to have any kind of chance and I was still crushed when I saw a bfn, hugs.

Cd 10, low on digital opks, will do another Friday to see if any change

Hi All - MancMama I know exactly how you feel... It's rubbish when all you can do is wait and analyse every single feeling and emotion.... Not having tests in the house is a good idea though.... This month is the only month I haven't tested early at all. It's been a struggle but I'm not even thinking about buying any till the weekend. If AF still hasn't made an appearance, I'll be 4/5 days late by that point.

I've been feeling pretty crampy tonight so she is potentially on her way. I'm feeling like I'm having a cold/flu coming on so AF on top of that will be wonderful!?!

A friend has given me a loan of her clearblue fertility monitor, I'm excited to start using it to get a handle on when's best to BD...

Sending lucky wishes to everyone and hugs to those that need them x

Ladies, I can't conceive naturally (or at all!) and I have still been known to do a test or 2 here and there. It's all consuming!!

Hope everyone is well!

So ... Officially 1 day late. Woke up this morning half expecting an appearance through the night but nope. No spotting either...

I'm refusing to let myself get over excited though as last month I was 2 days late and ended up with a 32 day cycle. I wasted so much money on tests! When she did show it was the AF from hell, serious cramps and up through the night vomiting with the pain on day 1. Talk about disappointed?!

Anyway, I'm glad that I've joined you guys because I have somewhere to get this of my chest. OH is obv on board with the TTC but he's of the opinion 'it'll happen when it happens'. I want it to have happened 5 months ago! Ha...

Fingers crossed! Hugs and baby dust to all x

Morning All - thank you for the responses, I'm feeling a bit brighter today, whatever happens its so great to have somewhere to come and rant/celebrate/commiserate - my OH is amazing about everything but I think its hard for him sometimes to understand the true toll ttc takes on your mind and body - he's very much like yours Disorganised_Me, enjoying all the bding and excitement but happy to wait for our time to come - whereas I'm clinging onto every month like its Xmas Eve haha!

Feeling v nauseous last night and this morning and my breakfast tastes really odd, but may have just worried myself sick/off so not reading too much into it. Hoping for a nice calm day today....

Hugs to all x

Morning everyone.
CD13 for me today, and day 6 of the continued high fertility, according to CBFM .......

MancMama4

Keekee how long have you been using the monitor? I used it for the full month for the first time this cycle and got 18 days of High no Peak! Luckily I had ov pains etc and used an OPK and caught ov.. hoping the monitor will work better for me next month x
