Hey girls as we are about to get thrown out of our thread I have started a new one so we can continue manically looking for EWCM, sore (.)(.)s and orange feet whilst chanting 'in with love, out with BFNs'.

Come on over/in

Morning ladies, hope your all well.

Oh Bucky how exciting getting your dog today, have you thought of a name yet?

No symptoms here, think head imagines them sometimes. (.)(.) felt sore the other day but seem fine now. It would help if I knew where abouts on my cycle I am! think I will test say Nov 7th if no AF and have 'symptoms' - so bloody ages away.. Arghhhh.
(cookat picks self of floor, dusts self down and promises to go back to be calm and collected about conceiving! DH is knackered!!)

Anyway have a good day, DD is having her first horse riding lesson today, lets hope she hates loves it! (expensive!)

digitalgirl · 27/10/2007 09:10

BFN.....and EWCM??? My body is clearly confused.

Ah well, the quest for the missing AF continues
I'll just keep taking my temps I suppose.

07mumstheword · 27/10/2007 09:10

DG No pressure or anything but it looks like we are all loggin on to see if you've tested!

Pixie We'll miss you but have a fab time.

Bucky How's the dog?

I'm cd27 and resisted the temptation to use my "4 days early test" on mu FME so proud of myself may do it tomorrow if TEW doesn't show her ugly face by then!

pixie04 · 27/10/2007 09:12

Good Morning ladies! DG have you tested yet?????

PicknMix One whole month! I coildn't do that, were going to miss you. Hope you come back with some good news

07mumstheword · 27/10/2007 09:13

DG Sorry we crossed posts. I'm so sorry for you I was so hoping for a BFP for you. What on earth is going on with your body you poor thing. Remind me did the doctor say they'd do some tests?

pixie04 · 27/10/2007 09:13

DG so sorry to hear about your BFN, sounds very strange to me. If you have sore boobs something hormonal must be happening. I suppose all you can do is wait and then test again in another week. So so sorry it wasnt better news.

Sorry DG, you must be feeling low, like it was said though its not over until AF sings.

Do something busy today to take your mind off it (easier said I know) Perhaps a little retail therapy?

dg to be honest there is still hope because we don't know what's going on with your AF. She seems to be the most evil witch there is, not only does she turn up but she make you WAIT . Maybe she will do a runner and not come back at all.

Well...dog is here. We have changed his name about 2000 times and his name is now Finn. After Fin McCool who was the Northern Irish giant who threw the red hand of ulster to Scotland (DP is Northern Irish...don't ask). He came from a Breeder call Nyrvana, it was either Finn or Kurt!! Anyway, he is beautiful but he has had one bath today and he still STINKS and I don't mean smells a little doggy, I MEAN he stinks.... Like dog pee. So he has to have another bath!! Poor thing will be traumatised. He was car sick too so my car smells of vomit. This is really fun so far LOL. On the positive side he is super clever and has already learnt to sit and stay (he may have already known this but I am taking the credit with my clicker )

ooh dg I meant 'not come back' as in because you have a BFP not 'not come back' as in never come back again

Having to put on a brave face today as I'm cooking lunch for some friends who are on their way over.

Still crampy with sore boobs so the signs are very confusing. Also, just remembered, woke up in the middle of the night thinking AF has just started. It was just watery CM. Then the EWCM this morning, so it looks like I'm about to go through ovulation attempt number 3. Still feels like AF could turn up at any moment though, but thought my temp would have dropped this morning if that was going to happen.

Mentioned in the waiting room that I pulled apart the CBD, which you're not supposed to do, and saw a second faint line...which has stupidly convinced me there is still a chance, even though I've read that all digital tests have two lines because they test for LH as well. So I have bought a non-digital test to try tomorrow morning.

bucky sometimes a good long walk gets the stink out! Otherwise, you'll have to reach for the febreeze!

07mumstheword · 27/10/2007 13:22

DG I know you are putting on a brave face but perhaps cooking and entertaining will help to take your mind off it. Thinking of you today.

pixie04 · 27/10/2007 17:46

Hi DG well done for putting a brave face on. I really feel for you, I know how horrible it feels to be waiting for AF for a long time. Sorry if I bombarded you with info on the other thread I just got a little hyper on the info I had (I like to share) Just hope you feel better soon. A BFP would help I'm sure so fingers crossed for 2moro morning for you x

digitalgirl · 27/10/2007 18:42

lunch guests have left. turns out she just had a mc two weeks ago, at 10 weeks. it was her 4th mc .
she was telling me that of all their close friends they know are tttc, only one couple have fallen pg naturally, first time, no probs.

it's so sad how hard ttc seems to be for everyone. why can't we all just do some classes and then take a test like when you learn to drive?

anyway, onwards with the bd'ing

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 27/10/2007 19:07

DG - just wanted to say I've been thinking of you and really hope tomorrow brings you the result you crave!!! xxx

digitalgirl · 27/10/2007 19:52

thanks looney just read your post on the june thread, sorry you're not feeling positive, thinking of you too.

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 27/10/2007 19:59

Thanks hun. Will come back tomorrow and see how you get on, fingers crossed xx

dg thank goodness its not like a driving test I had 135 lessons and four tests before I passed my driving test and I didn't pass till about 4 years ago! Let's hope I am a little better at ttc!!

Sorry you are having a sad day. Try not to get your hopes up too much for tomorrow. It will be fab if you do get a BFP of course, but I wouldn't want you to feel even more rubbish tomorrow. When it is meant to happen for us all it will and I know you will be first .

Finn the dog is being strangely well behaved. I am already getting too attached to him and feel awful that he will have to stay home with just the dog walker to see him a couple of days a week. He is so cute it breaks my heart. I feel quite evil now, although I know lots of people with jobs have dogs. I keep trying to remind myself that he will only be alone for 3 hours at a time (dog walker will come at 11.30am and 3.30pm) on the days we are not home but still feel like an evil cruel woman.

gryffingirl are you out there? What happened? Why aren't you going? Thinking of you.

DG Did it help talking to your friend today? It's scary how hard this TTC is.

Bucky at your driving lesson/tests it must have cost you a fortune! You are a fab dog mum. There are a lot of dogs out there who don't even have dog walkers to keep them company and I'm sure you'll be more than making up for it when you are around.

Bucky2007 · 27/10/2007 22:26

Thanks 07MTW. Although I just did the math and realised that 11.30 to 3.30 is 4 hours arghhh. Oh maybe I will get used to it after a few weeks.

CD7 for me already! Wow a whole week has gone. I am also thinking that Finn is like a practice run for the responsibility of dc. Its weird not being able to go out on a Saturday night!

Evening all far too mnay posts to catch up on hope you have all had or having a nice Saturday

digitalgirl · 28/10/2007 08:54

TEW has got me!!! Turning up in time for Halloween.

Charting temps is brilliant, I took mine this morning and it had dropped which is what is supposed to happen on the day AF is due. Then the cramps turned up. They really f***ing hurt.

So, slightly disappointed but also I'm finally off the world's longest cycle (not inc. Pixie's 70 day one!). I kind of think that the spotting last week was an egg burrowing, but having not Ov'ed till CD35 it was never going to be a sticky one.

Got an appt with an acupuncturist on Thursday, hopefully he can bring my cycle length down. Can also now look forward to my day19 blood test .

Am off to roll around my bed in agony.
