Hi Silverbell,

Dont lose hope, keep thinking positive thoughts - it can only help

Sending good vibes your way

hi ladies..sorry ive been away for a bit..kinda stressful around here lately! hope everyone is doing well.

i too am nervous about the softcups, i havent even gotten them b/c of that issue. i dont know how i am going to get them out. i have a high cervix anyways and its hard for me to check CP so im concerned i wont be able to get it out. i think im just going to forget it. i didnt get opks this month either, my car broke down and i cant get to the store, i can take the bus but its silly just to make the trip for opks, i can order them but they wont be here in time as im due to o between the 21-23. so starting monday i think we are just going to AI every other day and then everyday from 21-23.

silverbell- i TOTALLY dont think you are being silly. i had a friend like that..she was literally getting abortions every three months..no lie. i had to cut her off. i cant stand people throwing away babies like trash. yes i do believe in the right to choose but choose wisely..dont use it as a form of BC..if you dont want babies then use BC!!! i was just saying not that long ago that im so SICK and tired of my friends getting pregnant w/OOPS babies and im tired of pretending to be happy for them when they say.."oh we are just so surprised we werent expecting this!" UGH! all my friends know im trying desperately to get pg right now. since october when we first started ttc ive had 5 friends get pregnant w/oops babies..5!! i had to cut myself off for awhile cuz i couldnt stand the updates, ultrasound photos etc. it felt like they were rubbing it in my face. like haha we werent even trying and we are having a baby. anyways.

hope everyone is well. i will be around when i can. all you ladies hang in.

I know EXACTLY how you feel!

And I completely agree with what you're saying about BC! Really angers me!

Hope all is well and I have my fingers and toes crossed for you this cycle!

I have at least 4 days to go until I can test though I've had lots of symptoms, but don't know if it's all in my head?

HI All,

Sorry I"ve been a bit MIA, just had a lot going on lately.

Anyways.. I'm in my TWW now... 5dpo.... this cycle we tried every other day instead of everyday - fxed that this does the trick this month.

So far, no symptoms though...

I too was debating the use of softcups this month, but honestly am a bit scared to try and get them up there and out again . I think I have a higher than normal cervix... so I dunno, I"m still hesitant.

Hope all you ladies are doing well

Fxed and to everyone !!

just ordered mine but not bit worried,went for a smear the other day and my doc sed she want to do an internal and she struggled to find my cervix but hey ill still give it a go and if i cant get it out ill go docs lol

hi girls!
hope everyone is well! Fx'd for the TWWaiters! we are going to do our first AI of this cycle tonight. FF says im not due to ovulate till 21-24th but i have TONS of EWCM..its not stretchy though so i dont know wtf is going on..LOL. i went to the $store and got 2opks. i took one on monday which was CD10 it was -..so im thinking i will try again friday. but just to be safe we are going to AI tonight, skip tomorrow night, then AI up until the 24th and maybe the 25th for "insurance" LOL. the 25th will be CD19 and last month i o'd on CD18. im actually hoping i o a little earlier this month b/c i only had a 12day LP last cycle. im trying not to think about it too much, i havent been temping and the only reason i know about my CM is because there was globs of it on the toilet paper for the past 2 days (TMI). i dont feel like im o'ing though, not hungry, not moody, no o pains and i usually get LOTS of o pains. so well see, maybe not concentrating on it so much will make me lucky! well enough rambling for me. good luck to everyone where ever you are in your cycles!!

Hey ladies... I hope you are all doing well. I see some of you are on your 2ww, where is everyone else on their cycle???
I'm 3dpo today so I've been trying to stay off the internet as I'm avoiding symptom spotting as much as I can this month.. but its sooooo hard...

I have used the soft cups again this cycle, I usualy think they are easy to use but must admitt I did struggle on one of they days, I won't go into how... but let's just say it didn't go into positon lol.. it was fine the other days... so maybe I wasn't paying enough attention.

Anyway I won't be around much this cycle so I wish all of you....all the luck in the world... and look forward to seeing some happy news from you all in the near future xx

Hey huni,

I believe bluerose2012 is

i used the softcup and yeeeeeeeeeeeah i got it out no prob lol

Hey Girls, newbie (in a way) here. My dh has azoospermia so he has no sperm at all. We did 5 at home AI's via frozen anonymous donor sperm and had one bfp (twins lost them at 8wks) that was AI #2. Then we waited the 3 months they tell you to wait and did 3 more AI's with frozen and had no luck. Switched to IUI (unmedicated) and ended up with a chemical the second round in. Dr suggested doing a medicated cycle now with frozen donor and IUI but has also said there is nothing wrong with me at all esp since ive already conceived once. SO we asked a very close friend and he has graciously and most happily agreed to be a known donor for us. We just finished 3 AI's with fresh sperm. I DO use softcups, i used them the cycle i conceived with frozen DS as well. They are not hard to put in or pull out and keep everything nice and close to your cervix. It is also helpful if you can make yourself orgasm after you put it in to help your cervix suck the semen up towards it.
So i guess i am now in my 2ww!
