Coggy's Catch Up........

803 replies

coggy · 12/01/2007 19:38

It seems FOREVER ago that I was properly on MN and obssessively ttc!
Only 2 1/2 months ago but alot has happened in that time I expect (no.....sadly no bfp from me yet!!!)
I guess that Debbsy has had her Bibsy and maybe Peachy too......BooBoo next month.....lots of other BFPs??????
Natty, MrsMc and Trace have kept me with some of the news on here.

Here's a quick catch-up with me and what is happening.....
I am CD25 of a usual 26/27 day cycle with all the classic AF signs.....cramps, tiredness, wind etc. etc. (It's nice to be back!! )
I am starting IUI this next cycle so I am only a couple of days away from that and VERY excited and VERY nervous about jabbing myself too!
I figured as well as catching up with my old ttc buddies I could also moan and groan merrily away about it all on this thread and (hopefully) get a little bit of (much needed) sympathy at the same time!!!

I am SUCH a wimp really!!!!
Roll on CD1......

Hang in the Coggy

hi cogs. I was just thinking it could be stress-related, and saw peachy had suggested that.

Have a glass of wine in the bath!

Maybe.....I didn't feel stressed....more excited but somethings going on for sure!
Bubbly said she had exactly the same before her first IUI so maybe it is just a stress thing.
I'm certainly not at all convinced that I may be pg.....no ripping into the hpt just yet!

She said it could be a cyst bursting ....don't like the sound of that!!
Or cervical erosion.......sounds worse!!!
And maybe AF will start properly in a few days.....wait and see......

I've been having AFs now for 19 years!!!!

Oh.....slight over-estimation there......it's only 219 that I've had!!!!!!
Seems like MILLIONS!!!!!!!!

it may be like you said that its all the thinking you been doing, or could be good news,

coggy · 18/01/2007 16:29

I know......why would it happen?
All the thousands of AFs that have been just normal and now, just cos I need to know when CD1 is for sure it's all a disaster!!!!!
