Hi,
we have been trying for our second bay for over a year and a half, once again great disappointment tonight...Wondering, is there anyone else in the same situation who would like to share this? I am currently having acupuncture and herbs, they are making me feel much better in myself, also will have second NHS appointment with specialist on Tuesday to discuss options. Just thinking about embarking on assisted methods...Anyone else going through this? It canbe very lonely...

Morning all, I've one good thing to report! Have had next to no PMT this month (normally I am just evil and miserable for a good week) and I'm wondering whether that's down to the acupuncuncture? Anyway, I've got another session booked for Weds so that's something to look forward to.

Had my ttcing blood test results back this morning. All seems fine which is great, apart from TSH levels are a bit high which can mean underactive thyroid and can affect fertility as hormones messed up. Great, another thing to spend hours googling!

AF due tomorrow and showing every sign of coming as normal..

Hugs to you all

lilamummy yu are so right about the remembering you have 1 child and i try to focus on this on my bad days. You sound a little like me in having phantom pregnancy symptoms before Af. I have them at the moment and have to keep reminding myself that's what it is just pms. Instead of trying to find something different from last time to convinvce myself that it's pg symptoms.

Hugs to all and i wish i had something witty to say to amuse you but can't think of anything at mo.

Take care

Hello all - had totally convinced myself this month (proper nausea, things smelling funny, breasts absurdly tender and veiny) but yet again...BFN this morning. Can this really be PMT or is it a pregnancy fizzling out? Anyway, I really can't face taking DD to gym class this morning - it is packed with super fertile females on their 3rd and 4th child and I know one woman is about to announce she is pg again. In serious danger of sobbing if she mentions it.

Sorry about me post - just feeling a bit sorry for myself (had stupidly even begun to imagine my Christmas baby...when will I ever learn? )

So sorry about the bfn Iwbp

Iwbp-hugs to you. My pms has been like this for the last 3 months and each time i hold onto a little hope that maybe it will be positive, and each time have been disappointed. It is so hard when all around seem to be pg too. Thinking of you.
