babyhoping Yaaay for the stress-relieving exercises. Take one day at a time and try not to worry ahead at what might happen next week or the week after. What will happen, will happen, whether you worry about it or not. If your head fills with next week worries, try shut them out by thinking back to how you felt when you were out with your DH having a good time.

Well, I did another test today - just had to....

10DPO and defo a BFN - no evaporation line. Logically, I know I'm not PG. Total absence of PG symptoms.

vnewmummy I'm trying to convince myself my breast are bigger and more sore than normal at this stage of my cycle ... but I tried that last month too and it didn't work out! It's actually the absence of nipple senstivity thats the big key . So I need to get a grip and hold off from any other tests until next week, if AF doesn't get me first.

Lychees Isn't it possibly still too early for you, ESPECIALLY if you are having queasy feelings? On my last PG I got loads of BFNs before finally a very very very faint BFP on 14DPO.

I know what you mean about feeling like you did everything right though ... my cycle was weird this month and my peaks come later, so DH and I BD'd 9 nights in a row because we kept thinking we must be close to peak!!! I drank lashings of grapefruit juice too and was almost swimming in pre-seed .. but zip, zero, nada PG symptoms. Damn and blast!!

Sorry for your BFN Lychees. x

Shaggy - you made me lol. You sound a lot like me. I try to believe i have signs too. I know what you mean about the boobs!However, its only 10 DPO so maybe wait a few more days.

Day 17 for me and still no peak. 1st cycle was day 15, last cycle day 14 so I hope its on its way...All these highs are wearing me out.

Have a good weekend everyone xx

Oh Lychees, how disappointing. I sorry to hear that.

JustShaggy, it's never over til it's over - fingers crossed for you.

I'm back to the start again (Please can somebody put me back to day 2?). I think my usual cycle length is going to have to become ?? as I've gone completely haywire over last few months, after 30s for a while I've now had 36, 32, and now 26! I'm putting it down to continued weight loss. Who knows what normal is going to be from now on.

Well I'm now onto last cycle before our appointment with the fertility clinic and I'm hoping more than ever for this month. I'm at my healthiest for years and years, I've got a low stress month and both DH and I are on all the vitamins known to man. Somehow it feels like if we have to have help to conceive we will somehow have failed. Odd I know but there we go. So fingers tightly crossed that this is our month.

Wishing everyone a pleasant weekend. Hope everyone has weather as stunning as we're due to have here. Looks like time to crank up the barbeque at last.

Thought I'd update the stats for today. Hope I've done it ok?!

Lychees & JustShaggy - sorry for BFNs. It's not over til she arrives though !

BabyHoping - well done on the stress management. I've downloaded the Couchto5K app today so one step nearer doing something more constructive!

Day 11 for me and still no highs. I think I always used to ovulate around day 16 so I guess it is too soon yet...

Gorgeous day. I had a pub lunch (and a Pimms!) out with my brother and his fiancee and caught the sun on my shoulder!

FlyingCat - sounds like it could be your month ahead. Fingers crossed!

Brief message from me as I am on DH's mobile. Back to CD1 today so of to the Dr's next week for my blood test results and to find out what our options are now. Hope everyone is well. Speak to you soon.

sorry for any BFN's ... I have been in hospital for 2 days with bad chest infection (collapsing in out of hours dr's was not my best move) so been put on such strong antibiotics cannot try to conceive at same time as it affects bone development and teeth - so this month totally out (am coming up to high's in 2 days!) .... so going to concentrate on weight loss, reduce stress and get better.

Keziah - that must have been really scary. Hope you're starting to feel lots better. Sounds like you've got the plan sorted for this month which will then put you in an even better place for next month!

Lychees - sorry AF got you but I guess you've got something planned now. Hope either you get some really good options or you don't need them...

We've had a lovely day in the sun today

Keziah hope youre starting to feel better.

Lychees sorry AF got you x

Morning - hi all hope you all enjoyed the fab weather this weekend.

I have had highs from day nine and today is day 20. My UCL is 28 days. Any idea why this might be? Do you think i just havent ovulated this month?

On cycle 1 and 2 I only had 2 highs followed by 2 peaks then 1 high before it went back to low.

???? x

Morning all

Keziah hugs to you hun, hope you are feeling better.

Lychees sorry for AF's arrival, good luck for your blood results.

vnewmummy that's exactly what happened to me last cycle when I didn't ovulate. FX that's not what's happened to you. Someone said earlier that it can sometimes indicate pregnancy? Hope it's the latter one for you

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend? What a difference it makes having the sunshine!

Morning All,

Wishing you a speedy recovery Keziah. The weather has been fantastic ... was brave and finally got the milk bottle legs out for a bit of air and sun .

Feeling surprisingly okay about AF's arrival this cycle although a BFP would have been great. DH went for SA on Friday so he'll be getting his results in a fortnight.

I have a feeling I will have to have more bloods done as my 21 day bloods may be misleading given that I had a 34 days cycle and my peak on CD18 and 19. So I am bearing this in mind.

I am thinking of going for a fertility MOT on Harley Street. In particular, they offer an ultrasound scan to check egg reserves etc and it cost £200 [without SA for DH] so I am starting to think that this is a price worth paying.

Not sure, vnewmummy but as Boba says, this can happen if you're pg [didn't Cupc4kes get all highs for ages before she discovered she was pg].

Hope everyone else is well this morning.

Just had to update my cycle stats.

That sounds quite reasonable Lychees, if I lived closer to London then I would probably go for that too.

Hi everyone,

I´ve been a bit more relaxed in the last days but now I´m sick... I think I caught too much sun during the weekend and now I have either a cold or the flu, not sure what...

In my TTC plan, I bough this weekend a supplement for DH which contains L-arginine and Maca. It´s supposed to be good to improve sperm and I just thought that everything that can help is good...

Boba when is your acunpuncture session? I want to know how it went, as I´m also considering it, just a bit afraid of the needles....

justshaggy any news?

Keziah hope you are feeling better... Get well soon

Lychees if I lived near Harley Street I think I would take that option too.

Thanks for well wishes - had not great weekend, but can potter gently today. And breathe, always helpful - it was just the nail in the coffin having discovered my progesterone was only 24 and when I see dr in 4 weeks know they will say, more tests (ie hsg etc) which they could have given me last time ~(I say this as know someone under same dr who got all tests, 6weeks turnaround not the 3mths I got and getting clomid with higher progesterone level than me; am really happy for her, but down on me for not even getting testing in 3 months, with no hope of treatment for another 3 now!) and this medication ruled out even ttc without assistance...

Ok, rant over.. just low and ill.

So - who going to get a bfp to make us all smile ?

How about Shaggy? Have you tested again?

Keziahhopes it is a joke how the NHS can treat people in different areas completely different.I understand your frustration. You take it easy hon and take it work on getting better.

Day 21 for me and still high? As Boba said either not ovulating this month or maybe FC pregnant. God I am really hoping for the later. My cycle is always 28 days and as far as i know i ovulate so i am praying maybe. It is so bad as you start to imagine you are and thinking up symptons. I am trying to convince myself my boobs feel bit different and last week i hada metalic taste in my mouth. Or prehaps I am just in fooling myself. How early can you test?

vnewmummy I think 4 days before missed period but I try and not POAS too early these days as hate seeing a BFN now! I would try and wait until the day AF is due hun.

keziah really sorry to hear about your troubles. Try and take the rest of this cycle to relax and get yourself healthy. I know this is really hard but most important thing is that you're well.

Baby having acupuncture tonight after work. I'm so excited and a wee bit nervous of the needles. Will let you know tomorrow how I get on.

How is everyone else getting on?

Just updating my stats. AF arrived today, but I knew this was going to happen because my temps started dropping two days ago. I did manage to avoid re-testing though and have learned my lesson, I think.

I am bummed about AF, but mostly bummed about having to add another year to my age!! Flipping hell - it feels like my chances of ever having a child are slipping away.

Huge work deadline looming so will catch up with all your news when I have proper headspace again.

Hope you're all well!

Oh shaggy - I'm sorry for AF
Is it your birthday today though?! Happy birthday!
Hope work deadline works out ok and isn't too much of a headache.

Boba - hope the accupuncture goes well

vnewmummy - I agree that I'd try and hold out until AF is due before testing. (easier said than done I know!)

BabyHoping - sorry you're not feeling great. Hope watever it is clears up soon.

Keziah - hope you're feeling better each day. It is very frustrating about different PCTs having different criteria.

I'm on CD14 and still no sign if a high. I'm starting to wonder whether I've re-started ovulating yet... It's only CD14 of my first cycle though! Must calm down!!!

Sorry to hear that shaggy but Happy Birthday! Hope you manage to have a lovely day anyway. x x x

Shaggy - sorry AF got you. Dont worry about your age, I had my DD at age 39 and here I am 41 trying for no. 2. I am sure you will be ok age wise hon.

Good luck tonight Boba - interested to see how you get on.

I will try and wait until next Tuesday before testing.
xx

Happy Birthday/belated birthday wishes Shaggy and sorry AF got you. Hope you feel better soon, Babyhoping. Essence, one month I didn't get any highs before I peaked so there is still time.

I'm going to try to get to the Drs tomorrow to chat about my blood results but I have a busy day planned; have some stuff to sort out at the bank and birthday presents to get for parties this weekend and I have DS tomorrow which means everything will take twice as long. I'm always running around like a headless chicken on my day off.

Catch up with you all soon.

Morning!
Sorry not to update the list but am posting from my phone.
Stupidly excited as I've got my first high today! Only problem is that DS and I go away tomorrow until Monday so have booked a GOF with DH for tonight and will just have to hope that that's enough

Lychees - hope your Dr appointment goes well today. I'm with you on the headless chicken / how much can I cram in on my day off routine. Wednesdays and Sundays are normally my only full day off and on Wednesdays I try and focus on doing things with DS and doing the odd bit of housework in those few small moments when I can!

Morning everyone, Lychees hope you get on ok @ docs.

Had 1st session acupuncture last night and it was really good. I will be going weekly for approx 3 cycles. The acupuncturist(?) was really helpful and I have a lot of confidence in her. Was not at all sore, only a bit uncomfortable/bruise like when she was twiddling needles about but overall very relaxing. FX it works!

Must say though I usually wake up every morning with sinus pain and need to pop my ears to clear - nothing this morning. Maybe just a coincedence but I'm hoping not.

CD16 for me today and still on highs . I suspect I'm in for another 64 day cycle.
