Hey girls as we are about to get thrown out of our thread I have started a new one so we can continue manically looking for EWCM, sore (.)(.)s and orange feet whilst chanting 'in with love, out with BFNs'.

Come on over/in

lunch guests have left. turns out she just had a mc two weeks ago, at 10 weeks. it was her 4th mc .
she was telling me that of all their close friends they know are tttc, only one couple have fallen pg naturally, first time, no probs.

it's so sad how hard ttc seems to be for everyone. why can't we all just do some classes and then take a test like when you learn to drive?

anyway, onwards with the bd'ing

Hi DG well done for putting a brave face on. I really feel for you, I know how horrible it feels to be waiting for AF for a long time. Sorry if I bombarded you with info on the other thread I just got a little hyper on the info I had (I like to share) Just hope you feel better soon. A BFP would help I'm sure so fingers crossed for 2moro morning for you x

07mumstheword · 27/10/2007 13:22

DG I know you are putting on a brave face but perhaps cooking and entertaining will help to take your mind off it. Thinking of you today.

digitalgirl · 27/10/2007 12:52

Having to put on a brave face today as I'm cooking lunch for some friends who are on their way over.

Still crampy with sore boobs so the signs are very confusing. Also, just remembered, woke up in the middle of the night thinking AF has just started. It was just watery CM. Then the EWCM this morning, so it looks like I'm about to go through ovulation attempt number 3. Still feels like AF could turn up at any moment though, but thought my temp would have dropped this morning if that was going to happen.

Mentioned in the waiting room that I pulled apart the CBD, which you're not supposed to do, and saw a second faint line...which has stupidly convinced me there is still a chance, even though I've read that all digital tests have two lines because they test for LH as well. So I have bought a non-digital test to try tomorrow morning.

bucky sometimes a good long walk gets the stink out! Otherwise, you'll have to reach for the febreeze!

dg to be honest there is still hope because we don't know what's going on with your AF. She seems to be the most evil witch there is, not only does she turn up but she make you WAIT . Maybe she will do a runner and not come back at all.

Well...dog is here. We have changed his name about 2000 times and his name is now Finn. After Fin McCool who was the Northern Irish giant who threw the red hand of ulster to Scotland (DP is Northern Irish...don't ask). He came from a Breeder call Nyrvana, it was either Finn or Kurt!! Anyway, he is beautiful but he has had one bath today and he still STINKS and I don't mean smells a little doggy, I MEAN he stinks.... Like dog pee. So he has to have another bath!! Poor thing will be traumatised. He was car sick too so my car smells of vomit. This is really fun so far LOL. On the positive side he is super clever and has already learnt to sit and stay (he may have already known this but I am taking the credit with my clicker )

Sorry DG, you must be feeling low, like it was said though its not over until AF sings.

Do something busy today to take your mind off it (easier said I know) Perhaps a little retail therapy?

DG so sorry to hear about your BFN, sounds very strange to me. If you have sore boobs something hormonal must be happening. I suppose all you can do is wait and then test again in another week. So so sorry it wasnt better news.

07mumstheword · 27/10/2007 09:13

DG Sorry we crossed posts. I'm so sorry for you I was so hoping for a BFP for you. What on earth is going on with your body you poor thing. Remind me did the doctor say they'd do some tests?

pixie04 · 27/10/2007 09:12

Good Morning ladies! DG have you tested yet?????

PicknMix One whole month! I coildn't do that, were going to miss you. Hope you come back with some good news

07mumstheword · 27/10/2007 09:10

DG No pressure or anything but it looks like we are all loggin on to see if you've tested!

Pixie We'll miss you but have a fab time.

Bucky How's the dog?

I'm cd27 and resisted the temptation to use my "4 days early test" on mu FME so proud of myself may do it tomorrow if TEW doesn't show her ugly face by then!

digitalgirl · 27/10/2007 09:10

BFN.....and EWCM??? My body is clearly confused.

Ah well, the quest for the missing AF continues
I'll just keep taking my temps I suppose.

coolkat · 27/10/2007 09:06

Morning ladies, hope your all well.

Oh Bucky how exciting getting your dog today, have you thought of a name yet?

No symptoms here, think head imagines them sometimes. (.)(.) felt sore the other day but seem fine now. It would help if I knew where abouts on my cycle I am! think I will test say Nov 7th if no AF and have 'symptoms' - so bloody ages away.. Arghhhh.
(cookat picks self of floor, dusts self down and promises to go back to be calm and collected about conceiving! DH is knackered!!)

Anyway have a good day, DD is having her first horse riding lesson today, lets hope she hates loves it! (expensive!)

Sorry I am being really bad... I have barely been writing anything on topic these days, which is very naughty. This is afterall a symptoms thread. I promise I will try and behave now and find useful and topical things to contribute from now on. Promise. Am I forgiven? .

shreks where is madoldbird haven't seen her around today?

Well, here I am at 00.12, it seems in the last 15mins (thanks for the tip Pixie ) Steve's head has swollen up, i have been reminded of the irony of our children eating chocolate made by child slaves, I can buy a musical wind up big bird from sesame street that does peek a boo, I have checked out whether you should ring your sister if somebody else told you she was getting a divorce and a seven year old boy was in a museum drinking milk out of a baby's bottle ...I don't think I will ever sleep again. There is so much going on on MN .

Good evening ladies!

ABBY how the devil are you?

Well news from me... cervix was so high this morning (since my last post) that I could just about feel it at the top there but couldn't tell if it was hard, soft, open or closed. But OPK was a definate negative I think multi checking has confused me about what's going on. I know last cycle I didn't ovulate till CD 21 but I don't know what a regular cycle is for me. I've had EWCM, OV pains and my cervix has been high soft and open BUT... I have had no positive OPK (although I got a semi strong line two days ago not enough to be a BFP tho) and I have also has no tale tale sore nips. I am seriously confused.

I am now in a panic because DP and I haven't BD'd for 48 hrs and he is away for the next 48 hours so if I haven't ovulated already I may miss the boat this month.... I'm becoming hyserical aren't I?

Sorry very self absobed post, hello to everyone, DG you are super informative, and obviously a great multi tasker as I really can't seem to get to grips with multi checking my fertility!
