still TTC your first baby? want some glastonbury luck?

Fi I can't really help you with this I'm afraid as only every had a very small ammount of if it. I suggest googling and you might get pics - ewh I know, but will help.
But remember mucus is not the be all and end all. I would say for you on cd 28 do another test tomorrow and if (and we hope not!) AF does come then keep a very close eye on things next month and note it all down.
Also you have to watch a programme on BBC 3 tonight at 9pm called make me a baby - quite informative last week I found.

Oh Ready and Nomore I feel so sorry for you both. Haven't even been ttc for a month and I'm going off my head with worry and anticipation - must be horrendous a year down the line.
Not having an experience or wisdom to share all I can say is that you've only really explored the natural route (I think?) and there are no so many treatments to help you - IVF etc. This is by no means the end of the road. Waiting is hellish when you want something so badly, but at least your not five years down that road - I know a woman who took 17 years to fall pregnant and spent a fortune on IVF. You are nowhere near that and it's highly unlikely you ever will be.
I don't know if that helps at all but I think it's nice to know people care - even those you don't know i.e. us lot. No matter what you are going through in this ttcing game there is always a woman somewhere who can relate - and she's prob on here somewhere!

it's kind of like hitting rock bottom though - bad (awful) when you're there, but at least it's the lowest you get and then it gets better.
CAT me if you like?
When do you get your test results? I'm going to docs at 5pm today (eek) and am feeling quite nervous about it!

Crossed with you there nomoremagnolia (((hugs))) back. It's so unlike me to be down and negative. Sigh. I'll get there. I always do.

Thanks for your message fifilou - bless you for taking the time. I know what you are saying, but I am not really stressed as such. Down and dissappointed, certainly.

Fingers crossed you fall quickly. I hope your running round the stone circle brings you luck! I thought of you when I watched some footage over the weekend!

(((Ready)))
Feel so for you, that's how I was a few months ago (when I took a break from mn) it's the most horrible feeling.

Cor blimey, this thread moves far too quick for me!

Hope everyone is ok?

I know what you mean nomoremagnolia, and of course I mean no offence either.

I am really down in the dumps at the moment... never felt so pessimistic in my life. Normally I am the Positivity Princess - but the bubble has burst, tomorrow will be CD1 of Cycle 11 and I just can't see a time when I will be pregnant. It's sad.

Treenie - glad you're feeling better!! Sperm can live for up to 5 days so your last few bd sessions should still be in there waiting for the egg anyway so I wouldn't worry! Also I'm sure once a day doesn't make it run out!! Good luck!

Cd10 for me today and not feeling anything yet..

Hi Ladies
how are we all today?
I am so much happier. Had ov pains all yesterday, tingly boobs today and now lots of mucus - tmi I know! So reckon I am oving!
So pleased because I was convinced it was never going to happen! Obviously want to get preggers this month but even if it doesn't happen I'll still be happy just knowing my cycle is back on track.
Have decided opk are not for me - way to stressful and better to look for natural signs.

However, being an insesent worrier, I am now concerned that poor old dh will have run out of sperm for bding today! Have been doing it at least once a day for the past week so think he may have run out! Is that possible?! Am I mad?! er yes! How long to sperm live?

Nomore and bella - totally know what you mean about being addicted to mn - dh has told me I have to stop posting on here and do some work! And I am so not an 'internet person'. No facebook, myspace etc. But love it here!

And hello to the preggies! So lovely that you pop back in. You inspire us and hope be joining you soon!

ha ha!
but you've got an excuse to sit down all evening, I haven't!
Actually today is day 2 in a row, so I'm hot on your tail! Have been known to spend best part of a whole sat afternoon on here...

I'll see your one evening and raise you ... four in a row!

HELLO!!!
Good to hear from you, glad you're still lurking. All those symptoms sound positive - real proper pregnancy stuff!!
I've found myself spending a whole evening on mn lurking around active convos!

nomore here I am!

I am lurkmastergeneral at the moment, all over mumsnet. My typical evening goes:

• get out of school as soon as I can. I'm not really doing my job as properly as I have once done. ahem.
• drive home (walk to the station far too fatiging))
• turn on laptop and television
• consider carefully which foods I could a) eat and b) be arsed to buy or prepare

hours pass

I go bed.

All the fun! Feeling sick, tired, lazy, and the whole sense of smell think stinks (pardon the pun) - for a few days I was wondering why everyone seems to have forgotten to wash and wear deodorant before I twigged. Obviously, it is all great. really. Roll on 26th July (scan) and hopefully I'll start to feela bit better (and more positive!)

How is everyone else?? I'll pass on some good luck fertility hormones to you all!

Hello all,
Gilly - could you have had a anovulatory (not ov-ing) cycle? Apparently they happen occasionally.
toomuch - glad you're getting some sun, can you bring us some back? Stick to OPK testing mid afternoon and see how you go for this cycle.
fi - can't believe that your docs is so crap. You have to book smear at mid cycle point, so you need to book it in advance, don't they understand that? getting on your behalf.
bella - how are you doing? Come back to see us, I miss you.
ready - same goes, where are you? Miss the old crowd (no offence to new crowd )
PE - nice to hear from you, glad all's going well for you, will you put the scan on your profile for us?
everyone else - hello

So Gilly you reckon I could quite easily have missed the surge?
I keep worrying that I haven't ov at all, but I reckon that's not that common really - or is it?
What signs do you get that you are ov?

Toomuch if you have a 28 day cycle, ov on day 14 then you are prob too early, but since you don't know I would say keep going and don't worry yet. Am on day 21 and still nothing. But I think I missed the surge. The first time I used these I did it in the morning and it worked so did the same this time and nothing.
really the best thing to do is just keep at it and that way you won't miss ov when it happens. Test more if you like though cause it is possible for it to be all over in 12 hours I read somewhere. Have a look at peeoneastick.com
So maybe pick another time of day, maybe late at night and try then too.
Hope that helps

Treenie - fingers crossed we all get pregnant at our next ovulation!!

I'm worried about opks now - when does everyone think I should test - I'm cd9 now and have tested at 3pm last 2 days..
