This is around the right time though. Monitor has been saying high for the past 2 days. We were supposed to start on Tuesday but we were too tired.

hahaha @ mum's going to Iceland.

winkle totally sympathize with your DH. I was like that last month, totally uninterested in ttc as I wasn't seeing the point of it. I lost hope before we even had DH's results. But this month I am doing everything in my power to get that BFP. Sigh! I guess that's why they call it an emotional rollercoaster.

I am going to go for frequent shagging, as with Morphology and Antisperm bodies, dr. google advises not to abstain for more than 2-3 days. Apparently the more DH ejaculates, the less time ASAs have to cling on to good sperm.

Somedays I feel like there's no hope with morpho and ASA, other days I think 'all it needs is 1 sperm'..... just the 1.

when I am glad your tests came back normal and no issues were found. I hope the next one is a sticky bean for you. Fx for January.

winkle2 · 29/11/2012 11:32

I know how you feel red! Swing from hope to despair on a regular basis!

LittleMissSnowShine · 29/11/2012 22:16

Hope to despair all the way...elusive bfp feels like its just round the corner but constantly just out of reach at same time...

winkle2 · 29/11/2012 22:28

We're supposed to dtd tonight but I'm so tired and hub doesn't want to. He feels likes there's no point :(

OP posts:
redstrawberry · 29/11/2012 22:32

We didn't do dtd last month either as too tired and weren't into it. Don't be hard on yourself and DH winkle

Just tell DH to not loose hope. It WILL happen. And his numbers are improving so its def going to happen soon. Jump him early morning maybe?

winkle2 · 30/11/2012 09:27

We are away this weekend visiting his family so hopefully getting out of the city to the relaxed countryside will help.

BelissimaLol · 30/11/2012 09:42

I feel your pain girls. Don't be too hard on yourselves. Over here I'm obsessively knicker checking scared of finding blood. It doesn't get any easier even after bfp Hmm

LittleMissSnowShine · 30/11/2012 10:06

On cd29 today, AF roughly due on Sunday tho knowing my luck cycles will prob decide to go whacky & weird again and i'll have no af and no bfp either. At this stage with all the diff xmas parties i have lined up over next 3 weeks i might be better taking December off regardless and just getting stuck in.again.in Jan.but just the fact that fertility friend app is telling me that af should be due on.new years eve makes me feel like we do still have one more chance in 2012 so dont want to give up yet

winkle2 · 30/11/2012 12:21

Lol - everything will be ok. Try not to worry :)

Littlemiss - I feel the same but keep thinking a BFP for Xmas would top off a crap year. I deserve a Christmas miracle dammit!!

OP posts:
BelissimaLol · 30/11/2012 13:32

I've got everything crossed for a Xmas bfp for all of you! Then we can close the 2012 thread and let someone else start the 2013 one.
I'm still panicking. But not bleeding so need to pull myself together!

Kittenkatzen · 30/11/2012 13:41

wouldn't that be amazing?! :) sigh

sorry to hear everyone's feeling a bit down about things at the moment. I was feeling the same but just recently I've had this weird sense of "knowing" it's never going to happen for me - like it's inevitable really and i can't even picture it anymore :( It's probably a defense mechanism of some sort i guess. Weird feeling though. Sorry I sound like a complete nut job don't I...!

when, glad your test results were positive-ish. Partially reassuring at least :)

winkle enjoy your weekend away and red hope you have a lovely date night!

winkle2 · 30/11/2012 19:09

Kitten I said that a few months back - that I just can't picture it happening for me. OH reassured me that it would but he's now saying the same.

OP posts:
winkle2 · 30/11/2012 19:17

Lol that would be brilliant if we could all leave this thread to some newbies!!

But I have a feeling ill be starting the same sorts of threads for years! 'Hoping for a 2038 BFP?'

Sigh

redstrawberry · 30/11/2012 19:57

Lol agree with winkle there .... It would be great to get off the conception boards....eventually! Just wonder what 2013 has in store for us.

2011 ended sadly due to bereavement , 2012 was filled with so much hope and promise of starting a family but just been so emotional, dreading 2013 but wondering how much worse it can get. I am all out of emotions.

Going to get my tree up this weekend as I'm not having another miserable mopey christmas! Time to get into the spirit as I still have DH, friends and family.

LittleMissSnowShine · 30/11/2012 20:54

Done most of my present shopping and I wrote about half my xmas cards tonight, red! Doing my Christmas clean (kind of like a December spring clean!) before I do the decorating, hopefully get lights, trees etc up on Monday evening. I've broken the cellophane off DS's Thomas the tank advent calendar ready for the morning Grin

No matter how grumpy / fed up / frustrated / down / hopeless you may be feeling...you can't beat a bit of Christmas cheer!

kitten - it's a nice daydream, right??

I feel deeply un-pg but I am going to have to poas anyway, since it's my friend's 30th birthday party tomorrow night and I will be wanting to spread the festive cheer by having a few festive spirits Wink Wish I didn't have to test cos I know the bfn will make me feel Sad but I don't want to feel stressed about having a few [wines] either and AF is due the next day so just need to be sure. Bleh.

Trashy tv and tea tonight, DH out with his buddies from school for their annual xmas curry. pints, catch up night ... staying away from shows about BABIES!

BelissimaLol · 01/12/2012 09:21

Girls bit of a random question!
Do any of you use the app? I did an update yesterday and ever since then I can't open this thread anymore! Every time I try the whole app crashes!
I've come on the site now to send you a message. Is it only me?!
Hope you are all ok. I'm panicking about every twinge and can't sleep properly. Oh well.
Who is poas next?

winkle2 · 01/12/2012 11:45

Oh lol hope you're ok, try not to panic x

Cd13 here. Still not dtd! Hub says he's got his mojo back so we'll go for it tonight. It's the ones around OV that are the most important right? Think it will be Monday (cd15).

OP posts:
MrsBri · 01/12/2012 12:30

Lol, I've not slept properly since I got pregnant. If I've had 3 nights' good sleep in the last 8 weeks I'd be surprised. I think it's very normal, annoyingly.

And I can totally relate about the twinge thing. PM me if you like. xx

And here's to a final December push, ladies. Fx to you all.

winkle2 · 01/12/2012 12:32

Waves at mrs bri :) nice to see you.

Managed a quickie while mil popped out! Hub popped in while she popped out haha!

We're on track for an Xmas miracle :)

OP posts:
BelissimaLol · 01/12/2012 12:47

Glad you back shaggjng winkle! Like I said I only DTD day before and day of smiley during fertile time and it did the trick!lol at popping in!!!
Mrs I think I'll die of exhaustion unless I manage to get some sleep. Today I feel better and no major twinges so feeling a bit more positive. 5 weeks today.
I'm sooo hopeful for festive bfps on this thread! I can feel it in my loins :-)

winkle2 · 01/12/2012 12:51

Red - there's a thread on the infertility board about ASA - you might want to check it out?

OP posts:
winkle2 · 01/12/2012 12:52

Thanks lol - I always say ttc is a rollercoaster. It really feels like that!!!

OP posts:
MrsBri · 01/12/2012 13:28

Hey winkle! I've been lurking about...I miss everyone over here. Really hoping this is yours and red's month :-)

I know how you feel, Lol :-/ Just have to grab any sleep you can. I'm shit company in the evening as I fall asleep on the sofa all the time!

winkle2 · 01/12/2012 13:58

Aw thanks for thinking of us! Still Blush at my breakdown on your BFP day!
