[Bunnygirlie]

The smallprint - Berries have a strict entrance criteria (TTC #1, over 30, TTC for 3+months, NO instadiffers, must have a special pot) and def no mention of baby dust or baby dancing UGH !!! Ooh we are strict...please note your house may be at risk if you do not keep up repayments lol

I reckon I must look like the invisible woman really

happy how come this is your last attempt?

charming I do wear glasses but usually just in the house as wear lenses out. I've named myself after my cat who us actually blind!

Oi charming not sure I like the mental image! I promise I'm not a brittle humorless ginge desperate housewife! (although I'm sure marcia cross is a lovely person) ok maybe the desperate part is accurate ok and the housewife bit is perhaps a little on point but i pinkie promise i am not redheaded even though I've always wanted to try it

pip fab news on the ivf front! it seems like just the other day when you got the referral and now you're looking at possibly being pg in a little over a month!! All my fingers & toes will be crossed for you how's the new house?

Now Cheetara don't you get your thunderpants in a twist, you know you were only left off because we've established beyond all doubt that you're a thundercat!

We need to stop for a while to avoid me giving birth immediately before/during/after our wedding next year. Not at all what I want to do but is the most sensible option. I blame DP and his ridiculous positivity. We'll definitely have had a baby by the said he when looking to book the wedding - pah!!

happy well you're bound to get pg on you're wedding night anyway! Who knows, the break might be what you need anyway.

barking you're right with her being white but she ain't no Persian! Just a plain old moggy! She's currently sat licking my arm ( cupboard love). Really must stop her doing that when I finally get pg!

so I posted last night and then went online to buy fabric, had a bath and went out to see the ferrets and completely forgot that is asked something I wanted to read!
Thunder, who could forget you? to me you are definitely a thunder cat. with thunder to announce yourself. Possibly Lion-O, but I'm not quite sure why.

Gillster, 39, TTC cycle 16. Hysteroscopy on 17th to remove endometrial polyp and check fibroids, Clomid starts around 22nd July. Recommended for IVF which would start around November if referral process has gone to plan.

happylass We are booking ours this week month as well! We are hoping Sods Law will step in and give us a BFP to cooincide with the date we have booked!

Sparechange, 31, TTC cycle 6, previous 'diagnosed' with unexplained infertility so playing the waiting game for now. Has just drumroll ordered 40 OPKs online in recognition of needing to take this a bit more seriously

Anyone else get seriously tearful days? I just can't stop crying! I think it must be pmt damnit. Never used to get this crap before my miscarriage. Humph.

Thunder I cried fo 3 days solid last time AF showed up. Have sI think we'll have about 6 months off. That'll avoid me giving birth 3 months before or after the wedding. Spare when are you planning on getting married? We didn't book it for this year cos we (naively) thought I'd be upduffed! Decided cant keep putting life in hold for TTC so just gonna go for it.

Sorry that didnt make much sense! On my ph

Sorry that didnt make much sense! On my phone and have to shoot off back to work now. Will post later.

Right what I was trying to say Thunder is that sometimes it hits me really hard and other times I can shrug it off. Last month was particularly bad and I cried for 3 days solid. PMT definitely makes it worse. Have some and and hope you're feeling better about things soon.

Ditto to happy. I've had months where I didn't get my hopes up or believe it would happen and was ok and months where it was super tough.
FF advised me this morning that you're 18% less likely to have spotting post O if you're pregnant. It helpfully provided that wisdom just as I recorded 2 days of spotting on my chart
Anyone got any 'symptoms'?

But what about implantation, merk?

I've been crampy for past few days. Probably pmt too

happy thank you. Yeah I totally understand what you mean. This month all my hope has gone! I agree about not putting life on hold whilst ttc.
