I've still got about a week to go before I can POAS. DH and I have been trying for about 5 months, but I have very irregular cycles so it's all really hard to judge. I usually go about 2 weeks between periods so following that, AF should be due to arrive before the end of this week. But I'm thinking that would be too early to test and am very impatient! I've also been taking agnus castus this month on the advice of a medical friend so I'm feeling tentatively hopeful. Anyone around who wants to wait it out with me and not read too much into every symptom and definitely not take a test every day this week?

I've had no symptoms at all so I honestly don't feel hopeful. I reckon I'll leave it a few days.

birchygoo · 19/05/2015 20:22

finding that doesn't sound right at all - but I've never had clomid or spoke to anyone who has so maybe it is normal...? call to gp?

haquoi oh I'd love to hear your D's name Grin I'm sure it was just perfect!

haquoi123 · 19/05/2015 21:08

Ok, we named him Marvellous (in my head I call him Marvy for short)

hewy · 19/05/2015 21:30

Bless wee Marvellous! Great name. He's still being marvellous somewhere. x. I want twins with matchy names. DH says no matchy names :( !!

haquoi123 · 19/05/2015 21:52

Thanks hewy. I love matching names, that's what twins are for! Wink

birchygoo · 19/05/2015 22:01

haquoi I adore it!! I totally love the nn as well!

diamondsparkles · 19/05/2015 22:45

haquoi - I love Marvellous!! X what a perfect name Xx I love matching names too! Love Marvy too, how cute x

haquoi123 · 19/05/2015 22:46

Thanks birchy:)
I'm getting really nervous about testing tomorrow, I think I've got my hopes up to much. Maybe my dates are wrong? Argh!

birchygoo · 19/05/2015 23:15

haquoi when do you think AF was due?

ive fx for you x

findingmyfeet12 · 20/05/2015 06:05

Marvellous is a lovely name Haquoi and Marvy sounds very cute.

I've got my fingers crossed for you if you're testing this morning.

haquoi123 · 20/05/2015 07:46

Morning all. BFN for me here this morning, again :( at least my reflexology appointment is today, she might know what's going on. How're you all?

haquoi123 · 20/05/2015 08:05

Ah birchy I missed your post. It was due on Saturday cd30 (my average), so four days late. I don't know when I ovulated, but two Wednesdays ago my reflexologist said that I had, so it's at least 14dpo today.

diamondsparkles · 20/05/2015 08:06

Morning everyone.
Oh no haquoi - I am gutted for you, I really am xx
What time is your reflexology?
How are you doing, stupid question I know

birchygoo · 20/05/2015 08:06

haquoi sri about bfn had lots of hope for you. let us know how you get on later x

haquoi123 · 20/05/2015 08:14

Thanks diamond and birchy. I'm doing ok actually, just a bit annoyed and frustrated. My reflexology is at 6pm. Sigh!

diamondsparkles · 20/05/2015 08:45

haquoi - glad you're doing okay but I bet you are frustrated. At least you've got reflexology tonight, my next one is next week and I'm really looking forward to it.
Cd5 here - boring. Hate my stupid body, why can't it be normal and get pregnant like it should? Sorry, am in a bad mood which wasn't helped this morning when I was putting the cardboard out for recycling and tripped which threw the cardboard everywhere and it was torrential rain at the time and my heels got stuck in the grass - not a pretty sight!

findingmyfeet12 · 20/05/2015 09:05

Sorry about your bfn Haquoi. How frustrating.

I know how you feel Diamond - I'm having one of those days too. I'm already counting down the days till the weekend.

There's a chance I might be able to make it to my acupuncture appointment tomorrow. I guess that's something to look forward to.

diamondsparkles · 20/05/2015 09:13

finding - yes I'm definitely counting down to the weekend too.
That's good news about your acupuncture, I would love to try it. Let us know how it goes

haquoi123 · 20/05/2015 11:10

That's definitely a bad start to the day diamond! I hope it's only on the up. Have you thought about talking to your GP? That's exciting finding, I hope you do get to go :) more ewcm. I've almost got a mind to grab DH...

SleepyDragon · 20/05/2015 11:44

Hewy and Haquoi

Really? thats bizarre! i did notice that when i didn;t log the fact i had started AF when it wa due (the one that turne out to be missed) it did keep moving it so maybe it will 'regulate' itelf once you log the first actual day of your new AF (god forbid you get one)???

diamondsparkles · 20/05/2015 12:05

haquoi - I know - a rubbish start! I'm thinking about it seriously but I never go to the doctor for anything so something like this is really scary. It's admitting I've got a problem and I'm finding that hard to do.
That's strange about ewcm? How confusing - have you got any ovulation tests in you could take to check? I wonder if your chemical has affected your cycle? Hope you're okay x

Rememberallball · 20/05/2015 16:35

Afternoon ladies,

Been a crazy couple of days at work with no breaks, working 10.5 hours with just driving time meaning I was out of the flat for over 13 hours yesterday!!

Anyway, feeling really down just now. Got my d21 blood results back from the GPs today my progesterone level was

findingmyfeet12 · 20/05/2015 17:08

Hi Remember, sorry to hear about your troubles. I don't blame you for wanting to wallow. It's so frustrating when you don't ovulate, it's a case of not even having a chance.

Hopefully you'll get to see some specialists at the main hospital though and they'll be able to shed some light on what's going on.

haquoi123 · 20/05/2015 17:24

Ooh remember that sucks, I'm so sorry! Absolutely wallow - you're always so positive here, I'm sorry that those results have come back for you. I didn't understand what your GP said - are they basically not ruling anything out?

Red193 · 20/05/2015 20:33

Hello! First time TTC and 7dpo been noticing I am highly sensitive to smells (smoke and citrus making me gag and heave) and my boobs are like rocks they are so sore. Not sure if there are good signs or if it's in my head!
