    Sorry Butterfly :( I am trying to think of all the positives if my AF shows at the weekend, eg. being able to go on the funfair rides at our local fireworks at the end of the month. And enjoying a glass or three of mulled cider...

    Sorry about AF Butterfly, the disappointment especially when its late is difficult. When AF came last week I spent the whole time I was on looking at different vitamins and supplements. I am taking about 12 tablets a day at the minute! It gave me something to focus on though while I waited it out.


    Welcome Ratison and Snow, not sure if I have said that already.


    Sorry Rachy about the Baby Bomb. Its weird with family, I didn't think it would bother me because its family but its almost harder as you can't escape it.


    I decided to completely relax this month, whilst I think about TTC every day I am trying to not get stressed about it. I do know however that I am approaching ov a some point over this weekend so will be in the back of my mind, but we aren't following any kind of plan or doing any OPKs just going to BD when we want xx

    So this month my CM has increased and I have produced a lot more than usual - anyone know if this is significant?

    Butterfly sorry the witch got, she's so so cruel sometimes.

    Rachy increased cm can only be a positive.

    I still haven't oved & I'm pretty certain it's because I've been stressed & had a lot of negative thoughts. So I'm trying to get my positivity back, I've deleted ovia, I'm using a mindfulness app (thanks to whoever it was on here suggested HeadSpace, it's ace) & I'm using some positive affirmations. So far, so good, I'm definitely in a better place than where I was at the start of the week. Just need to try to keep it up now :o

    Hope everyone is good.

    Butterfly sorry AF arrived, it never gets any easier.

    Rachy sorry for the baby bomb :( re increased CM I would suggest that's a good sign and your body is possibly rebalancing itself.

    angel keep up with the relaxing it can only be a good thing, especially if you are already feeling a bit better.

    I've had an increase (massively) in creamy CM and sore/tender nipples. DH asked me what it meant and he didn't quite know what to say when I replied with could be anything I don't quite trust my body's signs anymore :rotfl:

    DTD the other night and cried at 'the end'. Obviously can't have been good for DH's enjoyment. Is it normal to be so emotional? All I could think is this is all it takes and it's just not happening.

    I am getting close to one of those anniversaries related to the MC so could be something to do with that.

    A0503 I did something similar when AF arrived. I'm convinced chinese medicine is the way to go for me, to get my body/hormone in balance. I did rule out Pregnitude as I thought £60 was a bit too much. I'm not sure how much the chinese medicine would be but I thought they could sort everything out in one go iyswim.

    That's so strange you say that as I am convinced re Chinese medicine too. I am quite into all the weird and wonderful theories about fertility anyway but I have read a lot online about Chinese medicine and it seems to work miracles for some women. If I reach the 12 month mark I want to look into it. I was taking g pregnacare but I felt like I wanted to do more xx
