So I'm calling it for this month. Might as well be proactive. I'm planning for tomorrow to be CD 1. Hate that !

Me too! Getting ready for CD1 with you tomorrow.

Maxxi You, Park, Squirrel and Lucky have all been calling AF out before she actually arrives. Maybe I need to start doing that?

Park, did she ever actually arrive for you? regardless : )

Waiting4 - I don't find that the EPO makes AF any heavier, but I have pretty light periods in general. I'm beginning to wonder if that means I'm not building up enough of a lining to support a pg? Does any one else on here have 2 - 3 day periods that aren't too heavy?

My clearblue digi opk gave me a today. I was really surprised because I thought I wouldn't get it for another day or so. I am definitely rockin' the cm tho - the grapefruits and EPO appear to be doing the trick. Gonna try softcups for the first time after I attack DH tonight.

No AF yet. She should arrive tomorrow.

Woo Hoo for the !! get your on

Hopefully it will pass by quickly for you.


Hippietea- big for you as well.



So, I have zero symptoms right now. Absolutely nothing. I am usually cramping by now and the (.)(.) should be super tender. But, I have nothing. Not sure what to think about that.

Thanks, just bought my first OP strips online to cheer myself up!
I hate getting confused over symptoms, it's so exhausting and it's only my first real cycle! Hope it's a good sign for you!

 

[Hippietea]

Sorry the above message was supposed to come out as a quote but half of it got lost

 

[SquirrelGirl]

Jaimie, my AFs have been all over the place. Tons of spotting, followed by light periods, followed by even more spotting, or more recently, tons of spotting followed by 2 days of extremely heavy, followed by spotting.... I'm the spotting queen, I think.... So I don't really know what to say about the light AFs!!

CD 1. Glad to be sharing this cycle with you!

I hope you don't notice it at all either. Too much mental energy wasted when I do.

Oh, I've had it set like that for a while now! I kind of forget about that little mood status thingy! I usually get like that after O but before AF. But one of these times it just has to work out, right??

I think I'll reset it to "breezy" now!

 

[LuckyD]

Are you feeling any better Lucky? Is it AF pains or just in general? Sorry she arrived hun as I know 6 months is feeling like a big milestone for you. Nothing we can say makes it any better I know, but I do understand how you feel - rant all you want here it is what we are all here for!! You are allowed a few days off from PMA. Its going to happen one month just sorry its not this one for you x

Thanks love xx am doing better now! Six months does feel like a big milestone, but am feeling more positive again, and hey, 7 is a magic number so maybe this month.....I do think it will happen for us someday soon, just got to keep believing that. Thanks for your support, it means a lot

Hey Ladies

Hope everyone's doing ok! Just popped on to say I won't be about much for the next 3 weeks, work's about to get stupidly busy Straight after that though I start ICSI and won't be at work so will stalking the board 24/7

xxx

Hope work doesn't get too stressful Springflower!! Hang in there....can't wait to hear how the ICSI goes, wishing you all the luck in the world xx

Really sucks Lucky. I hope you're feeling better. You're always so supportive when one of us rants that I say go off as much as you want. This is such a frustrating process and it is easier for some people to get pg which is not fair. You're day will come

Aw, thanks lovely...you are right, it is really frustrating. Some days it really gets to me. BUT am feeling better about it all now! Thanks so much for your support sweets

Hiya Park! I'm doing all right. Kinda bored actually! Trying to work up the energy to go outside, but it's hot! My OH and I started talking about getting a pool (not a nice one, just one you can buy at walmart or something and set up yourselves). Something large enough to float around in and keep cool. Just gotta get the OH to actually go with me to get one.

Oooh, a pool! That is an awesome idea...I am so jealous that you are warm enough to swim. Can't wait for summer again!

So I'm calling it for this month. Might as well be proactive. I'm planning for tomorrow to be CD 1. Hate that !

In the best possible way, I hope you are wrong maxxi! Really hope so xx fingers crossed for you

Hurrah for the smiley face Jaimie! That is awesome...have fun tonight

Ah, the two week wait! Good luck! Hope you are nice and distracted...

So I'm calling it for this month. Might as well be proactive. I'm planning for tomorrow to be CD 1. Hate that !

Me too! Getting ready for CD1 with you tomorrow.

You too Hippietea? Hope not!!! I want BOTH of you to get a nice surprise tomorrow instead of AF!!!!

So, I have zero symptoms right now. Absolutely nothing. I am usually cramping by now and the (.)(.) should be super tender. But, I have nothing. Not sure what to think about that.

Hmmmmm....no symptoms? Could be a good thing! It's so hard to know...everyone seems to be different...hope this is a good sign for you!

I uploaded a picture! Yay!

Cute pups!


Thanks for all your lovely words of support ladies, it really means a lot.
I am over it now, onto month 7, and feeling good about it all.
Work has been really busy and full on, so while I'm not really loving that, it has at least been a good distraction and I haven't focused on the fact that once again it is not my month...
The dumb thing is that if this month isn't successful, I am going to be away for the 10 days that I will ovulate so that month will be a bust! Oh well, will just have to see what happens.
I have been a bit unwell which also hasn't helped, still feeling crappy so off to bed now.
Best of luck to everyone! Hope that AF stays well away from the lovely 30-somethings....

CD 1. Glad to be sharing this cycle with you!

Me too, let's hope it's a lucky one for both of us.
Did the arrive for you? I got woken up really early by her and couldn't get back to sleep. Still, I had lots of energy today which is unusual!

Hippie - Still spotting which is so frustrating. I'm not sure if I'll be able to call tomorrow CD1 or not. By Thursday for sure. I know what you mean though about feeling different. My acne cleared up before AF, my bbs are very sore and I'm exhausted. It's so cruel how your body can make you feel pg when you're not. I'm hoping that this cycle will be lucky for us too!

It better work out! One way or another it will work out. I'm always tired so I never bother changing my mood.

 

[Waitng4Baby#1]

Didnt want to read without posting anything, in a rush as home late from work and DH sat on the sofa looking at me as he knows tonight is night so got to go!

But - sorry to those AF has arrived for/ almost here...

Jaimie hope you are having fun.

Still no smiley face on the opk despite doing both this morning and evening so hopefully tomorrow is the day.

Speak soon x

 

[Jaimie2Eyes]

Thanks Waiting4! We had fun last night and I've got some plans in store for DH tonight : ) Hope you get your smiley tomorrow! I did one again today and got another smiley, which I found reassuring because yesterday was the first day I started with the digi opks and was a little surprised to find it smiling at me. Wanted to make sure I hadn't missed out on the early ovuliciousness so felt better when it smiled at me again today.

 

[parkgirl]

LuckyD- Lucky cycle #7 for LuckyD. I think it goes well.

Waiting- FX you get your smiley soon.

Jaimie- woo hoo for another smiley. Go catch that egg!

Maxx- Af needs to get there and get gone for you. I hate the spotting thing.

Hippie- tons of for you this cycle!


I'm still waiting for AF to show. Going to be cleaning the house and getting things ready for my parents to come into town tomorrow night. I also need to find some activities for us to do.

 

[Jaimie2Eyes]

REALLY hoping the witch forgets where you live ParkGirl!
