TTC 10 Months Plus, Supporting Eachother & Staying Positive :) new thread!!

Omg lil it drives me mad - no matter how many times we 'talk' about it he just does not listen!!!! When will he learn that I am always right and he should just listen to me ;-)

srx=sex. so angry I can't type!

also seething with my 'd'h. why is it up to me to make sure we have sex so we have a shot at ttc each month. grrr! men are idiots. when they tell you men only think about srx they are LYING!

Thanks ladies dh (or inconsiderate bastard as we shall call him today!) just doesn't get it at all - I'm so glad I can 'talk' to you!! Off to sit in the sun at a bbq now with probably a vino or 2 :-)

She had no idea lol doctors really dont know enough!

If it is to do with annovultary cycles I would have thought it would have happened before im ffairly regular which is what I don't get.

Been waiting since his initial non starter referral on Feb 8th! Seems mad that we will hopefully know tomorrow!

What did doc say about your bleeding the other week blue? If anything, I know what they are like. My GP classed my spotting as day 1 of af and gave me a random preg test when I knew exactly where I was in my cycle. Maybe it was something to do with anovulatory cycles? I don't know much about them tho. Maybe you did have another af type thing after only 2 weeks? Can't explain the opks tho. I know a pos opk doesn't mean you actually ov but that's about it.

Chin up MB x

I'm so glad I have you girls to talk to! We can get through this together!

Argh still a no show for af ive only ever been late once what the hell is my body playing at!!

Hard I know but try not to be to anxious about sa results I believe if there is a problem they are easier to sort.

mb I have irregular cycles so have been doing opks over a year and cbfm for 4 months and I've had ov confirmed. currently cd18 and cbfm still low. latest I've ever ovd is cd25 and I normally get a week or more highs before peak on cbfm. my point is you could just be having an off month. its normal to have 1 or 2 annov cycles per year! and stress is a major factor delaying ov so go get a glass of vino and relax in the sun! PMA girls

Don't blame you Vic I'm really worried and we've got ages to wait!! Feeling really down this morning. Have been doing cbd poas opk for last few days, nothing again despite it being CD 12 of a 26-28 day cycle and should show up 3 days before ov. Pretty sure now that I'm screwed up and poss dh meds mean he is too.

Sounds like a plan blue :-) these nice light evenings.

I need to get back to my dancing, swimming and Zumba!

Feeling suddenly anxious about dh's sperm, and everything else. Holiday mode has gone and I'm back to earth again. Same old shit to deal with back home eh?

Me and dp have decided to start cycling most evenings and im going to try get up half hour earlier in morning to exercise.

Burnt alot worse than I thought uh oh

Yeah we need to go, must get back into the mindset of healthy eating...lil I really got into exercising at one point - I loved it! Then I cancelled my gym membership and now I can barely do 2 flights of stairs again!!!

This hol we were just eating what we wanted when we wanted it! And now paying the price as I think I look noticably fatter round the middle! Still in holiday mode tonight tho and ordered a big fat curry! Need to go food shopping tomorrow and only buying healthy stuff and chocolate

Haha my diet always starts tomorrow...was at a fete this morning ao had to have a bit of cake (it was for charity!) had biscuits after lunch cus I needed a choc fix then dinner in work canteen was steak and chips then had to have pud cus someone said it was good (it wasn't great but I'd paid for it!) I swear alot of it is comfort eating!!!

I'm allergic to exercise. unless its sexercise, then I'm on board. otherwise I'd rather give up food!

Thanks lil my diets pretty good as im coeliac so no breads or pastries or anything nice

Its just the exercise I have bad back, knees, shoulders, everything so exercise is hard plus im getting lazy lol

thanks guys. I know ur right. I am still using opks, but trying to just go with the mood rather than the science! hopefully "relaxing" will pay off barf

I too have got a bit pink in the sun blue oops! as for loosing weight I've found the best way to be just eating smaller portions. its amazing how easily we load up our plates. if you've got bug dinner plates or dark coloured ones go and buy some smaller white ones. they did an experiment about portion size differences on small vs large and light vs dark plates on a TV prog a while back, the results were clear cut! I also try to cut out bread. post holiday diet starts Monday here, but tonight I'm ordering dominos!

vicky I feel the same never get any luck I only want a baby is it to much to ask for.
Doctor said between 4 and 8 weeks to get an appointment sooo damn long

lil it does only need the one spermy to get through!!

Got a bit burnt lol...starting to think about concentrating on loosing weight but I always loose heart when nothing happens

Thing is lil it only takes 1, much more likely for something to happen if the problem is him not you so just keep shagging! Waiting lists are long and crappy, time does go quick though

Vic same to you, better the problem is him not you much, easier to fix. I'm the same though - convinced it's both of us!!!!

Vic chin up. whatever the outcome its a step forward. knowledge is power.

mb dh had v low morph and v low motility but good count. motility incread to 20% on second one but they were all still basically retard sperm. we now joke dh has lazy monster spunk! so far I'm checking out OK so looks like his sa is the reason we aren't conceiving. fx my hsg is OK and then I guess we'll be looking at iui rather than ivf first of all. its going to be September before we see a consultant at this rate though, so I'm just shagging for shaggings sake now. if we get a baby out of it that will just be a bonus!

Still don't know the results of dh's sa. We could have rang any day in the week but kind of didnt want to spoil the hol. We are both down in the dumps about it without even knowing as we are very glass half empty people anyway. We just think its BOUND to be bad coz we never get any luck.

Poor blue :-( it must be hard for you right now not knowing when af is going to come coz of your mid cycle bleed. Did you get any timescale on the waiting list for gynae?

Lol lil I'm normally the same was his ok?

sorry blue. try and enjoy the sunshine instead though. things to be thankful for and all that.

mb I also go told we had to abstain for at least 2 but no more than 7 so we dtd tge night before 48hrs before sa appointment to make sure the best swimmers were there. I also wanted it to be as close to realistic as poss, i.e. we DTD EOD leading up to ov so I didn't want dh to abstain longer than we would then so we knew how good what he was putting up there was iyswim! not that I over think these things at all, no not me!

Thanks blue he panicks about these things so will just stick to tonight. Gutted for you though, fx you get an appt soon xx

Bfn 3 days late what the hell I don't knlw why I got my hopes up if I know im not ovulating

Had day off once so sorted both front and back garden knackered now so sun bathing in my garden in a bikini top and shorts glad no one can see me lol not exactly skinny.

vicky good to see you had a good time!

mb we were only told not to do it couple of days before.

Dp only had 1 SA doc said if theres nothing to worry about they only need the one.
