Join us in egg-hunting, cm analysing, chart-stalking and plotting our way to a bfp. Or just generally losing the plot. All welcome!

Thanks have :)

how are you guys doing at not really trying but not not trying' while you wait?

Yeah not bad. Some nookie this week. DH has sa Wednesday so must perform in some way today to be in that window! Trouble is having my bday shenanagins lots of people are around! Nor charting is frustrating, no idea if I've ovulated or not!

Great news jaggy!!

I am still around but I am on an exended holiday. Have discovered SWI in more complicated in a tent and we have had to replace our airbed!

Decided to keep charting and have had the mist obvious temp rise since I started charting. Have also have 3 highs and 2 peaks onthr CBFM this time. Can't link to me chart from phone... but if anyone can locate my chart then Opinions over the next few week on how things look would help.

Month 11 for us too. Still hoping and praying and wishing.

Your chart link should now be [[www.fertilityfriend.com/home/AuntieDoris
here]] auntied! We gave up on swi in a tent last month!

thanks AuntieD. :) really hope it's lucky month 11 for you as well. will be wishing for you too.

i have been good and laid off the tests today, might make up for it tomorrow though with cbd and cheapie...

ooo did we kill the thread?

it's still a bit quiet isn't it! i still keep an eye on my 'threads I'm on'.

how's month 11 going for you?

I've been good and not POAS for 3 days...

Only 6DPO. So no idea yet. Still hoping... not feeling very hopeful though :(

after i wrote that i remembered to stalk you and realised you were only 6 dpo. the waiting is just too annoying isn't it!

crossing everything for you!

I'm still lurking. Think I ov'd quite early this month (?cd8). DH did his repeat SA yesterday so we'll see what that says.

I'm still floating around, but thought as though the thread had dropped of the first page that everyone got bored of charters anonymous!

First month back on it and AF is on her way, and I'm alot more gutted than I thought considering how positive and relaxed I was two weeks ago and how much SWI we got in. :( So, I've taken the plunge and booked an appoinment to see the doc again, but am not keeping my hopes up, and expect to get fobbed off again!

sorry AF is here if. :)

hope your doc appointment goes well and they don't try and fob you off!

Wow Jaggy, congratulations!!!

Im on month n12 now and god knows how many cycles as my cycles can be 22 days. 6 dpo and feeling that its unlikely to happen, must be too old now. On the plus side thats me lost nearly 3 stone.

Sorry if

Im not bored with this thread, just fed up in general about ttc, cant face seeing GP or doing anything so will just keep have unprotected sex, dont see the point in using contraception now anyway!

I'm on CD 5 and my temp dipped a bit yesterday and then shot up this morning. I can't possibly ov that early, right?? (29 day cycles, though 33 last month - suspected anemia)

The only other explanation is that DH slept in our bed last night (he'd been on nights for the past few weeks) which may have raised my temp?? It's still markedly higher than normal now, though :-/

snowgoose your hormones will still be settling at CD5, so nothing unusual having a higher temp that time in your cycle. I would guess your temp will be lower again tomorrow.

duck I thought you'd given up completely....glad to hear from you. It can still happen

In fact I started thinking I was the only one left!

ifat sorry about AF. You just need to assertive and don't leave without a referral.

I THINK I ovulated on CD12, as usual, but have had some EWCM last couple of days, so no cover lines from FF. We'll see

Phew - thanks scrummy!! :)

Bollocks. I'm out. AF has been to visit and I am genuinely fucked off now.

Oh AuntieD :(

Sorry AuntieD how many cycles is that now?

I've just come back from a fairly successful visit to the doctors :) It's been 18 months since I last went to see him complaining that DH & I have been TTC since June 2007, with exeption of two MCs we've had no joy.
He's going to speak with one of the docs at the Centre for Life in Newcastle on Monday and hopefully get some more tests underway. We'll probably have to re-do my 21 day bloods and DH's SA but at least it's a step in the right direction. :)

That was cycle 12. Bollocks and buggerations.

oh AuntieD that's pants! :(

Sorry auntied I'm probably right behind you, with AF due next week. Been spotting since 6DPO this month

ifat that's great news. Don't let them fob you off!

sorry auntied :(

hope you're not out too scrummy!

sounds positive about the tests ifat, hope it goes well.

i have almost managed to stop temping and POAS now... just got a few cheapies to use up.

And this used to be such a lively thread! Just popping in to say AF turned up, as scheduled, this morning. onto cycle 12 we go.

ifat how are you getting on with the tests?
jaggy are you sick yet ?
auntied hang in there. Looking back, one year doesn't seem such a long time in the scheme of things...
duck congratulations on your weight loss!
have have you received any results back yet?

Hey scrummy. Yes DH's sa was better. Count is just as low (doubt it will improve until they sort his prolactin levels out) but his swimmers motility was better.5% rapid :) and more sluggish, last time was 15% rapid, 85% non-motile. So it's good news on that front. Not charting, not really trying but not not trying iykwim. Work for me is awful atm. My secondment is coming to an end and management have screwed up about what I'll do (my old job isn't there to go back to). Getting pg would be terrible timing. I wouldn't give a monkeys, I'd be over the moon! but the stress of charting and ttc would be a bit too much.
Very sorry that af turned up. I'm cd4 of cycle 22 now.
