I'm CD 24 also, AF due Sunday. Looks like we're all at similar times in our cycle.

Well no AF yet and not more spotting, it was prob just my cervical ectropion playing up. Expecting AF next weekend.


Hope you've all had a good weekend!

Started light spotting today, so I'm assuming AF is on her way. Not surprising after missing fertile week.

I've spent my weekend cleaning the house, painting garden fences and finished with a bbq at the in laws.

Have to admit... sometimes I love a weekend of cleaning and sorting!

Not having much luck with trying to get healthy and loose weight. Less than 10 weeks until our holiday and I NEED to loose weight before then! Why is it so hard to find motivation?!

I have to admit i'm not doing very well in the losing weight department, but im still trying to plod on.

Ovia has stopped telling me when my fertile week is, I think even the App has given up all hope of me TTC haha.

Since doing to BBT and logging it in fertility friend I have found this such a better method of predicting fertile week! I would definitely recommend it. It also predicts AF being due much more accurately when it knows when you ovulated.

I missed a few temps this month so missed my ovulation day. It says that AF is due tomorrow and Ovia says Sunday so we will see!

Well af turned up yet again as I thought. Back to the start again. Am cd9 today and have informed hubby earlier in the week that we would be following the smep and dtd every other day.....well he went to the pub with my dad yesterday and was flat out all night when it was the bd day!

I'm struggling atm though, I'm 39 in October, this time last year I fell pregnant as we found out at the end of the month and after the miscarriage we still arent pregnant. Even dh he thought we would have fallen pregnant again by now. I'm beginning to feel like it wont ever happen, and find myself getting teary all the time. I try and hide it cos I dont want to upset my kids as they're 13 and 10 so understand somewhat about the miscarriage as we had told them I was pregnant due to feeling so sick and exhausted. But I feel like I'm bottling it up and fighting against myself all the time to not break down and cry.

Sending you lots of virtual bugs MrsBurrows. It is understandable that you would find this time difficult. Have you had any fertility tests?

AF is teasing me. I was 100% certain I would come on today as temp has dipped and I was spotting yesterday. but just more spotting today! She is definitely going to come with a vengeance tomorrow! Must remember to make sure I have the paracetamol packed as I can get awful cramps on the months she hits my hard!

Big hugs Mrsburrows.

Just as i convinced myself I was ok, my time will come etc etc. 2 of my close friends have said they are pregnant. I'm not ok! It's taking all my will not to cry in work. TTC is so frustrating.

Big hugs skimper. It is so difficult and frustrating! I had a melt down at the weekend when OH was away. It sounds so silly but I was super upset that I won't get the chance to surprise him in a really sweet way to say I'm pregnant, which then lead to the reality that I may never become a Mother. I KNOW I need to stay positive but sometimes it is so difficult. AF was on her way which I find is always the time of the month that I struggle the most as she's just another kick in the teeth isn't she!
