Morning all,
Thanks for all the hugs and kind thoughts. Still [hangry] with my body for not doing what it's meant to just now but not quite as [hsad] as I was. CD61 now and still no sign of FERTD, even DP commented that "the clomid seems to have made my cycles worse"! Haven't yet looked into it but wondering if stopping the clomid has played havoc with my hormones hence the ubercycle 
.
Garden so so sorry about FERTD. Hope you are looking after yourself and indulging in plenty of wine and goodies. It is very good news that the clomid is now working though and you should have a good idea about what's happening when for next cycle. Lots of ((((hugs)))) and wine and chocolate for you. xxxx
MissFlick Thanks for all your suggestions and advice. I have been having baths with soothing oils and then slathering myself in excema cream and have attacked my spots with face masks and savlon and things appear to be claering up a little. Am planning on telling my scupuncurist all my symptoms at my appointment this afternoon and hoping she can go some way to fixing things. I have still not had a chance to do some relaxation with your CD, but have worked through everything (well all the important things) on my to do list so as planned I can spend all of next week having a proper holiday and I intend to set aside some relaxation and me time every day so your CD will be well listened to! Good for you with your SWI, I know what you mean about the exhaustion. We managed to keep going just in case up until about CD56 but finding it hard to keep it up without a break, think I might just give up for this cycle! Won't it be nice one day to just be able to shag simply through desire and choice?!? [hblush] Enjoy the cocktails [hgrin]
HRH so sorry about the salsa class, it's awful for people to say they're coming and then let you down. I hope the tea and cat cuddles helped you feel a little better. Don't give up on it though, keep persevering! Glad the reflexology went well and agree with the advice about trying not to stress about temps and things, just wish I could take my own advice!
Toria sorry you've not been feeling yourself, stay tucked up warm and have planty of fluids and some lemsips! Hope you enjoy your weekend in Edinburgh, are you off somewhere nice?
Hi karstan, know exactly what you mean about badly designed systems, surely in this day and age we can come up with better ways to ensure procreation.
Tomboy have you tested again yet?
Josie sorry your work's going to be a bit crazy. Try not to work too hard and make sure you allow some time for yourself. [hsmile]
Truffkin thanks for the hugs [hsmile]. I have to admit I have also said things along the lines of "why on earth would we want children" when asked about the subject, it is definitely a lot easier than saying anything else (even though I sometimes want to scream at people and tell them off for being insensitive!), but am fairly certain my friend meant what she was saying. I know she's not really interested in having kids but she knows that I want them and usually in our conversations on the subject she will at least acknowledge that she understands I feel the opposite. The other night I felt a little like if when we succeed she might not be so interested in hanging around so much, maybe I'm being [paranoid emoticon]. Glad your reflexology is working for your relaxation and tension.
goldmaple I think the body trying to ovulate and then failing is fairly classic in PCOS so that's probably what's been happening with me. Wasn't charting before the clomid so I've no idea what's 'normal' for me, suppose I will just have to wait and see... Good luck with the birthday concpetion [hgrin]
Dessie sorry about your crazy few months, hope things settle down for you.
Kaloki glad you're okay, although sounds like you have a lot going on just now. Take care of yourself.
womanly it sounds like you have the same contradictory hopes as me, part of me desperately wants FERTD to show up and another part of me hopes it will stay away as then I can fantasise that I'm pregnant! Hope you get your answer one way or the other very soon, and of course that the answer comes in the form of a BFP [hgrin]
Lanky hope you've recovered from your millions of meetings!
Think I've caught up now!
I am covered in bruises from pole last night, the back of my knee is black and blue from a new spin (and bloody sore too!) but I'm very pleased with myself as I manage the butterfly, which was very scary but looked very impressive! I'm supposed to be off to legs, bums and tums in a few minutes but having windows replaced and the men haven't shown up yet. DP said to leave the back door open and just go out but not really comfortable with that so might just have to skip the class and have a cup of tea instead, what a shame [hgrin]. I've had a busy week and am now almost ready to start the wind down and total holiday fun week. My parents and coming up to visit for the weekend so are coming here for dinner tonight, as soon as DP comes back with my shopping I need to get organised and start cooking. Already set the table last night (DP thinks I'm insane!).
Damn, men just showed up so I suppose I should really go along to LBT, although really by the time I get there I'll be too late so might just stick with my cup of tea plan [hgrin]
