Hi all just popping by to say Hulababy hope things work out this month, and that you get rid of that apartment! It must be your month this month surely?

CP, I'd go to the quacks as soon as you can, they need to check you out and get your body back on track!

Debbsy - thanks for sharing your own thoughts as that is exactly how I feel!!
I feel slightly less desperate than I did yesterday, an early night seemed to have worked a little.
DH is going for a sperm test next Thursday so am nervous about that but also positive that we are taking steps to rule out any issues.
CP - poor you, no AF and still a BFN....what is going on!!!

WHen do you think i should go to gp's? i caved and got a BFN this morning but im 10 dyas late - surley no one has a 48 day cycle???? i wouldnt mind not having af normaly but obviously if theres no af you dont ovulate????

Hi everyone,
Sorry not to have posted for a bit. Been trying to get everything under control and catch DH between business trips to India and Jakarta for BD. I'll blame HP if I get my period as DH was stuck into it all weekend!!
CD22, so 10 days to go before I start wondering whether to test. Cycle is usually 32 days but occasionally can stretch to 35. Am trying not to think about it as last month I had almost convinced myself I was pg before period arrived bang on time.

Hello to everyone else hula sorry about af
Cp its not over yet fingers still crossed for you.
mm how are you?
Harri and handbag hi
sorry if missed anyone out but just got in from work will post everyone tomorrow as tired and got an early start in notts tomorrow.Im going to start another thread asking about pumpkin seeds as apparently they aid fertility my friend has told me today.Anyone else tried them ive now quit alcohol too i will get my baby if i have to move heaven and high water xx

Bella ((( hugs ))) its very very difficult this ttc lark but be positive ( i know its hard) it will happen for all of us im sure have you had any tests done at drs? have you been referred? dh going for sperm analysis on weds so we are a bit nervous about that too and my salp results from last week.I know how you feel you turn on tv and theres either someone pg or babies on tv,you read someones pg in the book,you drive your car and you see lots of pg women,you walk into a shop and someone whos pg is walkng out it feels like everyones pg except you,and sometimes its v v hard not to cry and scream and shout WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN TO ME I hope this in a small way has made you feel slightly better knowing we are going through this with u and know exactly how you feel and are perhaps the only ones that do.And are holding your hand every step of the way (((hugs)))

I just feel so guilty went my DD asks when she is going to have a sister.

I missed so much with her, she was only 8mths when i got BC and then 15mths when i got GBS i was in hosptial for 3mths and took long time before i could walk. I couldn't take her to the park or swimming or anything and now i can't seem to even give her a sibling. I don't want her to grow up alone.

Meanwhile my BF is pg with no.3 in 3yrs and i am honestly really pleased for her but it is hard to express how i feel to her.

Also though i have a friend who was TTC for 12mths and about to begin testing when she got a BFP shes now 23wks. So there is hope thats what i need to concentrate on.

Off for cup of tea now. Thanks for listening to me rant.

Thanks MM it feels good to just let it all out here the way i can't at home.

Hi to all
AF due tomorrow and i am getting all the signs to say its on its way, tummy pain, headache backache and mood swings. I knew it was unlikely this month but i can't help but feeling really low . Bella i think i know how you feel. Everyone around me seems to be pg too, my BP, my BF 2 at work. Although i really am pleased for them i can't help wondering why my body keeps letting me down. I always said that after the chemo if it was meant to be it would happen. I've have been really positive about everything else but i'm starting to waver now. Sorry for going on just needed to let it all out.

MM - thank god for that - thought it was just me - DP doesn't understand it either but I like to see it all making sense through the book (I also have to have birthday and Christmas presents hidden from me as I am terrible for shaking, sniffing etc... I am such a child!!!!)

Hula, sorry to hear the news that the old bag has turned up sending hugs to you. We are all here and in the same boat so you are not alone but I know how miserable it is (on month 13 of ttc now) Hopefully it won't be much longer for any of us...

Doh

FF is a website Fertility Friend - helps plot temps and pinpoint OV.

I'm sorry Hulababy

Hi Jen - yes my DH thinks he has a birthday every month too

Milosmum - being a bit dumb here but what is ff?????

Handbagaddiction - hope it isn't pre af!!

Hiya - have bought HP in Tesco on Saturday and have got about 4 chapters in - cannot put it down - found a solution to the handbag being too small to put it in - bought a bigger handbag!!!! I do have a terrible habit though - I have read the last page of the book so know what happens. Yes I know it is naughty and yes it has spoiled it somewhat but it is my own fault!

CP - very odd - admire your resolve not to test til the end of the week though - everything still crossed for you (although it makes typing difficult with my fingers crossed!)

Bella - sorry to hear you are feeling down, it is a very tough ride as I have found out too - hope you are feeling better soon (((((hugs)))))

Well, only on CD12 but BD'ing like mad - making hay whilst the sun shines and all that - DP thinks it is his birthday!!!

MM, Harrizeb, Handbag, Successful (fingers crossed for you too), EldestGirl - hope you are all ok...

Sending more of my special invisible babydust to you too...

There - did you get it?

J x

Hulababy , i hope it happens real soon for you, well all of us actually! thinking of you we all know how horrible it is to discover af has arrived

Fingers crossed successful

Well looks like month 11 isn't my month either. Just noticed the tiniest weeniest hint of AF arriving So looks like month 11 was 27 days long.

Onwards to month 12 - gosh, that sounds so depressing right now

Hi all, just popping by. CP really thinking of you. Bella hope things are a little bit easier now. I am on cd15 so bding as much as poss .

Well as it stands I am either pregnant in August or if af arrives I am to ring the clinic to set a date for the embryo transfer.

Hope evryone else is ok and I bought the Harry Potter book today for £7.95 in Tesco (I thought that was cheap)but my Dad gets to read it first.

Im 9 days late - still no sign of anything, will test at the end of the week if still nothing, if still neg i will will have to go to g.p's.
