Welcome MrsNubs hope your stay is short for the right reasons.

I just wanted to add to all you ladies still going through it that I really do understand what you're going through. It does get better. It may take it's time even though you want improvement immediately it may take a little while before you feel a bit more you. Take each day as it comes.

We're back in the BD zone and hoping for another less than 40 day cycle.

Sorry to hear you're stopping your TTC journey Claire, it must be hard but sometimes life gets in the way. I was nearly there myself twice recently but managed to get through things.

Welshkitty and DSM348, you may have read I'm also starting down the fertility testing route. I've had bloods done which show I am ov'ing. SA done today. Referral to gynae, waiting to hear. Trying not to feel too stressed about it but I was hoping not to have to go down this route

Zeni - my cycles are 27-29 and I ov between 13-15. I use the cheapie OPKs and I test at teatime. Don't worry too much about missing, I don't think anything can be 100% accurate and as long as you bd around that time then you could have caught.

Munchkin and Orangecandle, thinking of you both xx

Welcome MrsNubs

Hello to everyone else and hope you're all well.

PS - My diet is going badly and dry January was a failure but otherwise I'm good :rotfl:

kirtsypoos

I'm feeling a bit lost in the 2WW - I was so focused on temping, OPKing and BDing at the right time that now I feel a bit like I don't know what to do with myself apart from convince myself that I have implantation symptoms :rotfl:

I can see I am going to be a nightmare!

Munchkin84

I think we've all been there Kirsty.
Fingers crossed for you x

Kirstypoos I know how you feel. This time around I feel like it's got to me more than usual and it's all I have thought about for the last 2 weeks! Unfortunately, I just feel like AF is on its way and no other symptoms... All I can say is try to find something to take your mind off it? A good book maybe...? Fingers crossed for you.

sulphate you are very close to me in terms of DPO - how are things going for you this cycle?

Zeni

Def fingers crossed for you Kristy

Rachylou are you still doing slimming world? I'm really enjoying it but haven't had the best week.

Its amazing how tracking my cycle has got me tuned into my body, for example in the past I would of just thought my lower abdominal pain was maybe a pulled muscle or something but now I know today its an ovulation symptom. Hoping to get a BD in tonight as OH worked super late yesterday and so was way to tired bless him and I had an early start! Have just got back from cuddles with my one day old baby neice.. Oh so broody.

DSM348

I'm trying to look at it as a positive Rachylou1981 - though it does sound a bit daunting to be told you're getting referred to the 'infertility clinic'. The doc did try to be very reassuring about it.

I'm going for my blood tests on tue which I imagine will show that I'm not ovulating - I'm sure I do, just not often or with any regularity at the moment

So far we effectively haven't properly tried given I have been way off with ovulation predictions on the 3 cycles I have had - so my main worry has been ovulation but now I'm kind of glad we will both get some tests so that any other potential stumbling blocks are detected early (fingers crossed there is nothing too untoward).

Good luck to you ladies in the 2ww!

Yes but planning on giving up. Too much pressure on me when I'm going through this TTC lark. I wanted to lose a stone and I have so anything else is a bonus. I will still follow the diet but just not go to classes and it means I can stop stressing when I go out to nice restaurants and drink wine - things that keeps me sane and happy during this stressful time in my life.

Chelle22

Twigpig CD1 for me please, AF has arrived Gutted is an understatement. Bang on time too, exactly 14dpo. I just don't understand what is going wrong...

On the positive that means big takeaway, gin and chocolate tomorrow night.

Still got my fingers crossed for the other TWW-ers.

Hope everyone is ok today.
