The hut of gl/doom: ttc against the odds

This is a safe haven for those ttc with difficult, with ?sub-fertility or sub-fertility labels. Where like minded people offer encouragement at times and commiserations at others.
I've decided the theme is Cocktail style: Flanagans. With a pink neon sign: Cocktails and dreams. Blinkity blink.
Newbies are welcome. Come share your tales of woe

Turns out there was a reason the house I liked was so cheap - local criminal family live two doors down. A swift google of the local paper showed court cases for 3 of them in the past couple of years. Theft/ABH/car crime.

Back to the drawing board...

So after that whinge - Phoenix I would LOVE a Blue Lagoon. Alcohol to numb the pain Wink

Ah boo delilah. How rubbish! Clearly not the right house. We searched for ages for ours, looked at about I kid you not 15 houses. The minute I walked over the threshold, literally, I knew it was the house for us. And when the fire damage has been repaired, it will be beautiful
Best get my cocktail shaker going.

Currently still in bed, it's -12 out there!
Cycle#25, cd25. Willing Wednesday to come. Currently have no tests or tampax in the house DH's treatment appears to be working so we should be on 'normal' stats, 80% chance of conceiving in the next year?
Did you get an immunology referral in the end Lissie?

no referral, we are seeing cons on the 20th but DH hasnt had his tests done yet (dont get me started) so that will be pushed back. deep joy. I am on cycle 79, CD12.

and just writing that has depressed me.

New thread! I like it :) I've ordered DH three packs of well man vitamins, fed up of him moaning he is always tired and not in the mood so he can take the damn things from now on seeing as his almost saintly diet is actually very, very far from! Why are men so deluded? honestly.

Sorry about the house Delilah, but lucky escape really?

How come DH hasn't had tests yet Lissie? Mine is due for his next lot but I am currently building up to Ov'ing next week so he's banned from ringing to book in until I feel sure I've popped an egg out.

Phonenix I'm still in bed too! Heating has been on since 6 a.m and its still bloody freezing!

I'm feeling quite a bit better today. Going to get up now I think and give the house a good clean. Got a cold and a tight chest but I shall persevere through it and try and be more productive than last weekend!

Well, my marginally positive mood has now been shot to pieces, mum just told me that an old school friend who married about 6 weeks after me is now pregnant. I couldn't help it I just burst into tears. I'm so tired I don't know what to do with myself, I just can't seem to pull myself together or go a day without crying. I really don't know how to cope with it all now?

Went to a kids party and met a good old friend she reeled off a list or all of our pregnant friends then asked when I was going to join them :( I was frank and said I was trying but it wasn't working and at the clinic next week. She's a good friend and didn't use any lines like it will happen and just relax. It was more of well stay positive if you can and I will keep my fingers crossed.

hi lissie old friend, lovely too see you
bummer about house delilah
i'm ok thanks phoenix; think i might have actually stopped being sick, well at least, i only wretched once this am and wasn't actually sick. see consultant on 28th to discuss plan for 2nd half, then another fanjo-cam to see whether the aspirin has worked and what the likelihood of pre-eclampsia may be this time.

Decided I couldn't wait till tomorrow and did a test... BFN what else did I expect? Haven't told hubby as he wants to wait till tomorrow so will just tell him tomorrow... It's not 13 days post ovitrelle shot so on a 24-36 hour ovulation clock I'd say about 11/12 DPO so now I just sit and wait for AF as nurse said I definetley ovulated

Piña colada I think!! Stick an umbrella in mine hehe

After dreaming it so many times, I woke thinking actually I don't think I am
I think it'll be a traditional Valentines blood bath. Roll on cycle #26. I'm so tired of ttc. I feel quite low tbh. Think I'd best take DH a cuppa tea and get a cuddle.

DH and I have been out to the shops and looked through some of the boxes post-fire. Particularly pleased to be reunited with my copy of TCOYF! :)
