:rotfl: Penguingirl. We have strict rules on using eachothers technology for this reason. I also have his birthday coming up so the side bar on my Facebook comes up with adverts for things recently looked at as well as my Facebook messenger has a thread with his best mates chatting about it - one surprise has already been found out by that stupid app popping up their heads which OH saw :mad:
So it was a BFN for me today (First Response). I'm preparing for being out this month whilst OH is remaining positive, saying that we are not out until AF arrives. I feel as though I am pregnant but I just don't trust my body anymore, the symptoms are too similar to what I have experienced when I am not pregnant *eyeroll*0 -
I'm now on day 12 of the flashing smiley on CB OPK - no idea what's going on. I first got it on wed 24th, then didn't test again until the Saturday, but aside from that I've tested every day! About to run out of tests strips, so I suppose that will sort of solve the problem...
Could this just mean no ovulation happened this month? Bit sad if so as we were on top of the bding0 -
Rachy sorry for the bfn, though as your OH says you're not out until AF arrives.
Firebird I've never used cbfm, but is it possible you peaked in the few days you weren't testing? Remember as well that most women have at least 1-2 cycles every year when they don't ov.0 -
So the Clomid was taken, the DTD been done as much as possible over the last week or so, though difficult when you spend some of that time in a tent with a 17yr old hanging around! I've never insisted he take so many showers in his life :rotfl: And then the night spent at the In-Laws with as little noise as possible. Had to be done though, the OH even has the dates set as an alarm on his phone!
And now the inevitable count down, some vibes telling the old cowbag to go away would be appreciated. I'm going to have a ceremonial burning of the sanitary towels if she stays away
Love and babydust to all! xxx0 -
AF arrived at lunchtime whilst out. Tears down my cheeks as I write, held them in until I got home. AF used to arrive overnight but now it has an awful habit of arriving after I have done a test in the morning. My body hates me. So overwhelmed by it all now and finding each month even more difficult
I am giving up temping. This was the reason I thought I had a chance this month, the temps have stayed up since ov and I thought that was a great sign since they are always erratic and have only stayed up when I got my BFP on the cycle in April. So I think it's a complete waste of time and effort and has only succeeded in getting my hopes up more and then making it all ten times worse. I will use OPKs only.0 -
Oh gosh Rachy I am so sorry for you, was really hopeful. Hope your OH looks after you this evening (even if that involves some wine)0

He's out tonight unfortunately. I try not to get too upset in front of him as it makes him upset, he feels utterly powerless.
I have had a good cry, went to bed for a couple of hours sleep, got up and in tears again. I feel like this month is harder and I don't know how to cope anymore. I just hate the world:(

Oh rachy I'm sorry. It's really tough, especially when you've gotten your hopes up. Be kind to yourself though, your body isn't broken & it will happen for you xx

rachy Sorry AF has arrived and you are feeling so down at the minute. I know it isn't any consolation but sometimes our bodies just take a bit of getting back on track.
Slinky Hope the clomid & BD'ing has done the trick.
Firebird I've never used the cbfm only used the one that gives a smiley face. as Angel said maybe you peaked on the days you weren't testing.Christmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:
