I have one child who is 11, and who longs for a sibling. I am 32 years old & I have been trying to conceive since December 2013. I am ovulating thankfully, but seem to ovulate on CD18. My issue is that at 9dpo I start spotting and 10 dpo AF starts. I am on TTC#7 now, and I find the 2WW very difficult every month. I try to be positive and hope for the best, but on the other hand I try not get my hopes up too much, as it is so upsetting when AF arrives. I have had CD3 and 7 dpo tests done to check hormone levels...all of these have come back normal...My temps are really good too, so I just can't understand what is going on with my body. I also have been going to accupunture for the last 3 months. I am on CD1 today so hopefully this is the month I will conceive. Fingers crossed.Would anyone like to join me as I begin Cycle 7 TTC? x

CD1-36.9oC (TTC#7)(LP 10 days)

Hope all is ok ladies!
Temping is a bit of a mess with all this hot weather, I appear to be a furnace which is usual as I'm usually freezing! Xxx

Hey laurano I know what you mean about hibernating! When we first started TTC (feels like soooo long ago now!!) I loved the excitement of the buses on here! But gradually I got more bitter so have decided not to join them anymore! I love seeing the lovely ladies getting their BFPs but sometimes it's like rubbing salt into a wound!

Has AF finished for you now? Mine this month was unusually light and pain free, which never happens, so was better than usual! (As nice as the old witch can be!!)

Hope you're alright! Xx

Just popping on whilst on lunch...hibernated yesterday, so sick of TTC & getting nowhere...I feel better today, so I am hoping AF will bugger off in another 3 days or so. x I will catch up later x

Hope you're ok 1moretime, it's definitely a roller coaster of emotions this TTC lark! I think sometimes just a break from here, as supportive and amazing it is, is what you need. Just to get away from all the conception talk. Xxx

Hey laura & Ela

So sorry to hear AF showed her horrid face for you both again Sad

I hope you are both well. Iv had a bit of an up down few weeks! ...but getting there.

I think a little break will do you good Ela & it all sounds exciting for you.enjoy ya summer hol & best of luck with selling your house hun. You never know, while you are keeping busy you may get your bfp...as many say it happens when your not actively ttc.

Best of luck to you both my little temping buddies. Xx.

ELA88, 26, TTC#1, Bike 19, temp 36.43,

I've stopped joining the buses now! I feel like I've travelled on so many and seen so many ladies get their BFP while I have the most enjoyable company of AF! I like our group though!
I'm just going to try and enjoy the summer break from work, my holiday and trying to sell our house! Can focus my attention into finding the perfect home! Hope you're not feeling too rubbishy with AF though xxx

Hey ladies, AF got me too this morning! laurano we must have the same cycle lengths! Started temping properly again this morning so hopefully this month will have more of an idea, although I go away next week for a week so hopefully that won't mess them up!
Hope you're ok though! Xxx

Hey 1More how are you? x I only had a lp of 10 days this cycle Sad last cycle I had a lp of 12 days, but I had started taking Agnus cactus still taking it also the acupuncturist put a current through the needles to stimulate my ovaries cycle 7 before ovulation. He worked more on my back cycle 8, cos I was crashed into, so I reckon that must have done the trick! I have acupuncture again on the 28th, so will get that done again Smile

Hello lovelies, finally feeling almost back to normal but now DH has gone away for 4 days! Although I think I'm well out of the conception zone now! Haven't a clue if / when I ovulated this month! According to fertility friend I'm on cd25 though so AF should be due in a few days! How have you been? What are your temps looking like? Xxx

oh gosh Ela that sounds nasty Sad My sis had very bad thrush before & it took ages to clear Sad I find the canesten cream sometimes makes me really sore! You probably will have to go the doc, if it doesn't clear. Did you try the natural yogurt? It really helps soothe down there, it is a bit messy though!

Hey laurano I forgot to temp this morning! Got out of practise over the weekend! I don't even know what's going on down there...still so painful and itchy. Went to the pharmacy and they said I have to see the GP as I can't have another canesten tablet :-( xxx

Hi Ladies,

laurano81 32, 36.43°C, TTC#2, Bike 8, CD21, Clear stretchy CM, 4DPO

I had some pink stretchy CM late on Saturday night a few hours after DTD. I checked an hour later, and it had turned to a very light brown colour, but it was mixed in the CM. I have had nothing since.

I slept really bad last night! Stress is a twunt! New word from another MNer! x

Ela glad you got that sorted x I did nothing wrong, so I am stranding my ground x I just gotta stop stressing about it, as my hair is falling out when I wash, brush & style it! Not good, as I have been growing my hair for years! It is down to the bottom of my rib cage & I want it down to just above my butt Grin! The things that make me happy! x Hopefully the canesten will work asap, and you will feel improvements! Enjoy your weekend away girl! Chillax & forget about TTC! I bet it will do you the world of good x

laurano def don't settle for accepting any liability, have you got the personal legal stuff with your car insurance? When I had my accident the other drivers company kept refusing to take full responsibility and it dragged out for months but in the end they agreed. Hope you're ok though!

I have no temps either as I forgot to bring my thermometer away with me! So will have to continue when I get home Monday! Maybe a weekend away from making babies is what I need! Got a canesten tablet and cream last night so hopefully will feel better soon! Xxx

1more Good to see you back Grin x It is normal for the temps to go up & down somewhat, once they are not dractic temp changes...also my temp was up then went down before ovulation & then went back up x

Ela I hope you feel better soon x Gosh there is always something in life...you can still try & get the swimmers in there! If you get what I mean! I will PM you x

I was really stressed over my car today,...the other drivers insurance wanted me to take 50% liability...I refused, as I was hit on the left hand side,..the other driver cut the corner & drove on the wrong side of the road...no way was I liable! x It's driving me to Wine lol! Best to stick with Brew & Cake x
