Miss I am not denying that stress is unhelpful when TTC but I find it becomes counterproductive to fret about it. When GPs tell us to 'relax' what they are saying is 'please leave my office, I want to get back to watching porn on the laptop'; they couldn't give a shiny shit, half of them.

The only time I would suggest your stress is impacting perilously on your fertility is if you were not ovulating because of it.

AF rudely arrived 2 days early. Oh well, as least she has put me out of my misery and saved me some ££ on hpts

Good luck to the few that are still in the tww.

MissMrsMummy · 26/01/2015 21:07

Oh I'm sorry Mary.

loopylou1984 · 26/01/2015 21:19

Sorry Mary Hmm X

mrscatmad31 · 26/01/2015 21:19

:-( so sorry Mary

dojo123 · 26/01/2015 21:24

Sorry to hear AF has arrived for you mary Flowers

letsdothisthing · 26/01/2015 21:28

Sorry Mary! I hope some Wine helps!

I'm debating whether to POAS again in the morning, I will be 11dpo, but not hopeful somehow :-/

Also, a quick question, my luteal phase has varied from 10-13 days is this usual or is it a sign that I'm not tracking my cycles properly as I have read conflicting things about luteal phases being fairly consistent Confused

MissMrsMummy · 26/01/2015 21:31

Hope so mrscatmad you just have been nice and relaxed - hope it helped!

MarysPrayer · 26/01/2015 21:41

Aw, thanks all Smile

letsdothis I'm not even an armchair expert but I have also read that your luteal phase usually only varies by a day or so each month. So, if it's usually, say, 12 days, then 11 or 13 would be normal still. If that makes sense?!

PurdeyBirdie · 26/01/2015 22:26

^^What Mary paid

PurdeyBirdie · 26/01/2015 22:26

*said! For crying out loud!

Sparkly123 · 26/01/2015 23:06

Aww sorry Mary but February bus is gearing up and you have a special seat ready for your BFP!!!

Rosebud hi stranger. Great to hear you gave the gp a high kick in the chops.. Tests will be helpful for you and another step closer to your BFP!

letsdothisthing · 27/01/2015 07:06

11dpo and slight temp drop this morning, still above cover line but AF feeling imminent - boo to that!

I won't be 'late' until Fri/Sat, so will see what my temps do until then (if I make it that far without AF) before testing again!

teacher1984 · 27/01/2015 07:30

I'm still hanging on here in the Jan bus. And I'm still hopeful. Cramping has eased but boobs still feel swollen/tender - never get that with PMS either. My only PMS symptoms are mental/emotional & even DH has commented that my mood has been completely stable and it's the first time I haven't gone crackers the week before AF due!

These are some crazy symptoms if I'm not pregnant!

Purdey - I think this is the 8th or 9th month ttc so well within the realms of normal fertility still. I think it's just the wondering that's the problem - if someone told me you will be pregnant on month 14 then the wait wouldn't be a problem. It's waiting and wondering if it will ever happen!

How many are still hanging on here with me for a bfp by Jan 31st? Grin

letsdothisthing · 27/01/2015 07:35

I'll be around, although I have just joined the February bus too - straddling both until I know one way or another Grin

loopylou1984 · 27/01/2015 08:04

Teacher I am! Bfp due 31st/1st though so am straddling both busses!

9dpo My only symptom really is that I've had af type cramps for over a week now, not really bad, but enough to make me think af could rock up any minute. My boobs are slightly tender, but that is not unusual for me before af.

This is cycle 15 for me and I'm fairly sure it's not going to happen naturally for us after all this time, although initial tests show no issues, we're due to see specialist for 2nd appointment in April.

Doesn't stop me symptom spotting though!! X

HariboBrenshnio · 27/01/2015 08:21

Bfn for me again this mornin! I'm stepping away from the sticks until I'm late. God only knows what that positive OPK was about and now Iv run out so can see what it says today!! Think I'm 11dpo.

HariboBrenshnio · 27/01/2015 08:23

Loads of typo's! Sorry!

Nervous83 · 27/01/2015 08:59

Ok, so I haven't been on since I started moving house but I hold up my hand I POAS this morning.

Jan Bus Take 4!!!!!!
Nervous83 · 27/01/2015 09:03

Just waiting for my Doc appointment so will try and catch up as much as I can while I wait. Morning to all SmileSmile

MarysPrayer · 27/01/2015 09:35

Thanks Sparkly. I was lurking on there last night - sounds like a proper raucous affair Grin - gonna head over and join today.

PurdeyBirdie · 27/01/2015 09:44
