Thanks ijceb, after puuting it down in words last night I realise how crap it's all been and I should be a bit more assertive, been thinking about it all day today!

Had a heart 2 heart with my bezzy mate this afternoon who is currently going through her 3rd round of IVF and she put it all in to perspective!

No way am I going to wait a year, I'll wait until August-ish, then I'm going back to the doc. We've wasted so much time TTC#1 that we've completley over looked what would happen (and how old we'd be) if we wanted 2,3,4...!!

xkatyx · 19/05/2010 14:16

Hello ladies, how is everyone?

I'm still having odd preg symptyoms felt very dizzy today had a lie down that turned into a late morning nap!! doubt ill sleep tonight.

how are you caija?

ijceb · 19/05/2010 16:44

No problem IfAtFirstUDontSucceed I get so fed up with the GP's I find it really difficult to be assertive with people, and it is sad that the louder you shout (not literally LOL) the more they will do to help you.

I wouldn't let your age worry you. I had another problem that needed to be sorted before we started TTC and the GP looked really shocked that I said I didn't want to put off TTC much longer (I'm 29 and DH is 39) as I felt I was getting old. She said there was plenty that they could do to help if we had problems.

xkatyx - what do you think is going on? do you think you could be?

ijceb · 19/05/2010 16:50

Yeah I think we are all on new cycles:
I have a 24/25 day cycle
Next due on 31st May / 1st June

xkatyx · 19/05/2010 17:22

I dont have a clue, i has what i thought was a start of my period tuesday 5days early, lots of brown spotting till sat then heavy flow sat and sunday now hardly there brown spotting again, its so diffrent to my normal period!!

I feel so sick and dizzy so took a pregnancy test yesterday but negative so i dont have a clue i feel pregnant but obviously not.

i think my next period is die april 6th but that would be 28 days which my cycle used to be, but last one was 23 days so i dont have a sodding clue, im usualy so regular.

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 19/05/2010 19:57

Yep - I'm on CD6, with a usual cycle length of 28 days.
Key time is from next Wednesday and WILL NOT get AF on the 12th of June!!

I will be very p***d off if it doesnt work this month, as June & July are really hectic and will not be ideal baby making situations (think 6 days in a tent in the middle of a festival and two weeks sharing a cottage with SEVERAL family members!!)

xkatyx you have got me baffled, I'm so sorry that your body is misbehaving and leaving you so confused!

xkatyx · 20/05/2010 10:48

Oh no lol that doesn't sound like the ideal situation, i really really hope this is your month!! fingers and toes crossed!!!

I'm baffled too, also all mt ovulation sticks is positive already and have been for last few days i give up lol.

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 20/05/2010 17:47

I would go for it regardless, especially if you are now getting positive OPKs - you never know!

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 22/05/2010 10:33

How is everyone doing?

xkatyx any more lues as to what's happening with you?

xkatyx · 22/05/2010 11:38

Hello,

No more clues here, still feeling sick, tired etc. But given up hope i could be oregnant as got BFN.

All very annoying, how are you doing?

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 22/05/2010 14:10

Counting down the days till Wednesday

xkatyx · 23/05/2010 15:59

Is that when you are ovulating?

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 23/05/2010 16:43

Think ov should be on Saturday, but not taking any chances!

xkatyx · 23/05/2010 16:45

No i dont blame you, we are taking a more laid back aproach this month, once every other day and just hope it owrks, we tried the everyday approach last month and it didnt.

I'm a little worried that i wint fall pregnant i dont know why.

xkatyx · 24/05/2010 13:55

Oh no i have what seam's like the start of a urine infection

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 24/05/2010 21:56

God xkatyx, youre not having a very good time of it are you?

Have you seen a doc? Is this going to knock your TTC out?

xkatyx · 25/05/2010 08:37

I have got antibiotics (conception and pregnancy friendly)

prob will put me out for this month, i'm hoping we already got there so dissapointed though because its a another month!!!

xkatyx · 25/05/2010 09:53

Oh no what do i do? i got a strong positive on my ovulation test .. shall i just go for it or wait all uti symotoms have now gone.

also when you get a positive how many days do you swi?

oh why cant this be simple.

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 25/05/2010 19:21

If you feel up to it, and the infection has cleared up - go for it!!

They say you can ovulate anytime up to 48 hours after a positive OPK, so get yourself away - sharpish!

xkatyx · 25/05/2010 19:37

I have done a few today and they are all strong positives, and hubby is working tonight so it will have to waot till tommrow do you think it will be to late?

Hows things going your end?

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 25/05/2010 21:02

You may still be OK, just make sure you pounce on him as soon as he walks though the door

Tomorrow is the start of a very active 5 days for us . Second month of charting so should be able to tell when I've ovulated, hopefully there won't be any delays this month!

xkatyx · 26/05/2010 11:28

He was well and truely pounced on last night when he got home

and will be pounced on again before he goes to work!!! lol

5 days dont seam much but when your in mid flow it feels like forever, i told dh we have 3 days of it yesterday , today and tommrow, that should be enough i hope!!!

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 27/05/2010 18:29

Well, I'm CD 14 and pretty sure I'm ovulating!
Had a faint OPK this morning and a very clear OPK this afternoon, and I'm getting cramps which I have NEVER experienced.
Just waiting for DH to get home

xkatyx · 28/05/2010 08:48
