    I so know how you feel. I'm genuinely delighted for any friends who conceive, but so desparately want to be joining them. I got quite down a couple of months ago when yet another friend announced her good news - I can't help but measure our time of trying by the number of babies who are conceived AND born during that time.

    At least I am not alone. I am happy for others, but I want to be one of them... I won't even benefit from hand-me-downs in my case, as all of those friends are abroad.
    I am on CD17 out of 28 (usually, but only 26 last month). I got OV test positive on Sunday night, but the temperature hasn't peaked yet, so I am in between.... Getting a bit of cramping this morning, so hopefully I'll OV today. And then there is long wait. Not quite 2 weeks in my case, but we will see this time!

    morning all,

    CD28 weirdly, did another test on friday and it took ages for a line to appear so am treating that as a negative. Also have been having AF type cramps ALL weekend so i'm expecting it to arrive any minute. I'm completely prepared and convinced i'm not pregnant, but I know i'm still going to be upset when AF finally arrives.
    Also struggling to be happy for my best friend (12 weeks gone) when she keeps making comments about her being pregnant and me not and 'I didn't realise it had ONLY been 2 months', I know not very long in the TTC world, but it feels like forever and comments like that dont help!
    rant over lol.

    Baby dust and glue for all!

    Start eating the fresh pineapple now then! :D

    Why pineapple, may I ask?.... I thought that was to bring on the labour at the end of pregnancy...

    Congrats to all the BFPs since I last posted and hope everyone is doing well,

    I am on CD 28 and waiting for AF to arrive at some point today, trying not to think about the fact that I feel sick, think its nerves. Lol.
    On the upside though I have no symptoms of her joining me, but then thats probably me blocking out any of the usual signs! ;)

    I am due on today but it usually comes in the evening and Im just wishing the day away at the moment desperate to see what happens if it doesnt come Im waiting until Friday to test as Iv been silly over the past month or so testing everytime a wave of nausea hits me or my boob feel particularly tender! :eek:

    Good luck to everyone who ttc at the mo and baby dust and glue to all.

    Thought I would tell you something to make you chuckle...........well it made me chuckle. Had one of my staff sitting beside me, was giving him a bit of a telling off and I got an email from an ovulation calculator thing that I have signed up to. Now as if its not bad enough that it pops up at the corner of my computer screen and it was completely obvious what it was about............it was entitled Go Go Go!!! Me being the edjit that I am automatically clicked on it forgetting that one of my staff was sat beside me! Needless to say gave him a fab insight into what DH and I will be up to tonight! HaHaHa!!
    Its hard to wait around for that something you know may never happen,but its harder to give up when you know its everything you ever wanted.........


    People tell me Im going the wrong way..............when its simply a way of my own!

    If you google it there's a whole host of discussions around it on ivf forums - some against, some for, and some neutral...:rolleyes:

    Here is one link:
