    Congratulations on the bfp Vics :j

    Sorry the witch got you Midegt & Easily

    Selina sorry it's not the result you wanted, but fx that you get some answers soon.

    Alex I'm feeling similar about fb too :(

    Afm, it's our wedding anniversary coming up, which means it's a year since we decided to ttc, and almost a year since I came off the pill. Never thought a year later I'd still be waiting for that elusive bfp. I'm feeling quite low about it right now & it feels like it'll never happen. I've got a GP appt booked for next week for something unrelated, & I might mention it then. Tbh, I'm not sure whether I even want to mention it to GP or not - on the one hand, I kinda think I'm maybe jumping the gun as it's not quite a year of ttc yet, on the other hand I think maybe I should just get the ball rolling. If truth be told, I think I'm probably scared of what lies ahead ...

    Sorry for the essay & the pity party.

    Hi, wondering if I might join in please?

    We'd been NTNP since getting married in June 2013 and when June 2015 came along and still no sign I went to get some tests done. Hubby fine, me suspected PCOS and only intermittently O'ing.

    Started Cholmid after having gallstones and gallbladder removed in Jan 16, first cycle O'd then 2 cycles of no ovulation. Now on Metformin and Chlomid (higher dose) and this cycle I actually O'd and confirmed by blood test results, (normally i would have a scan to confirm but I was away so had to just have a blood test on CD21.) So, today is CD27. This is the first time I think we are actually in with a chance, so it's an anxious wait and whilst I've been lurking for a while, I thought I would make myself 'real'

    FX to everyone waiting /trying

    Congrats vics

    Alex and angel I could write your exact posts.

    I can't look at fb everyone is on there 2nd and I just want my first. Plus like you I have our wedding anniversary and my 30th coming up and I honestly thought we would have a bfp by now :(

    After a long honest conversation with Dh we have decided to book into the docs after our holiday at the end of June. It would have been 10 mths and given my erratic cycle and sometimes short LP we think we may as well start the process and hope for something in the meantime.

    Hi peeps, congratulations Vics ��

    Angel and midget I feel exactly the same. Even watching Game of Thrones is peeing me off because the women seem to get up duffed instantly.

    Our 1st wedding anniversary on Sat, and AF is due tomorrow. No signs of her arrival but she always just shows up out of the blue. I had a BFN on a FRER yesterday afternoon at 14dpo(ish) so I'm pretty sure I'm out.

    Good luck shazzer!

    Thank you
    I'm in the TWW CD27, 13DPO and trying not to obsess about when to test. My cycles are normally very erratic so my consultant has said given the day she thinks I ovulated I should be on a 28 day cycle. I don't think I've had a 28 day cycle since i was about 16! So, trying (but not succeeding!) to not constantly think about it. I know its early days for us only being 4th cycle of chlomid, but trying to remain optimistic that it could happen.

    I know what you mean about FB at the moment and I've got to go to a baby shower on Saturday!

    Hey just de-lurking to say Angel, midget, Millie & others this is exactly how we felt and why we've got things moving. I'm a couple of months ahead in that I'm waiting for blood results as we speak and OH has his "pot" just needs to book into the test clinic. We're also going to an intro session at our local fertility clinic next month

    Whilst it's super hard and every pregnancy announcement just tears at my heart, I do honestly feel more relaxed knowing we're doing something. Haven't even been temping anymore as that seemed to show I was ovulating so just trying to enjoy life to be honest. Off to Italy in a couple of weeks too :-)

    If any of you want to chat more or start a 1 year ish thread do just let me know or PM me xx

    Tenth Anniversary Combo Breaker
    Cats glad things are moving forward and enjoy your trip to Italy.

    I'm the same with social media and PG announcements, I have however found peace in that I don't know what they have been through to get to that point (defiantly made me more aware since MC ect..)

    SS :naughty::o Boobs & nipples still sore and I've been cramping for a few days (mild) but tonight they are feeling a little stronger. Not sure if to have a paracetamol / hot water bottle see if it helps ease it! I know this cramping is a very similar feeling I've had only one month prev (PG) but I am managing to stop myself getting too excited as the disappointment is too hard when I see BFN
    Christmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:
