Hi there ladies, how are you all doing today?
CD 60-something for me today
"dear body and bits... just quit already, you are soooo boring me with this waiting now, just give me that bloody egg!! Have a word with yourself!!"
Hey
JH1982, thank you for the tip on Milk Thistle, I think I may look into that one
Haha
finallyready, LOVE the BFO!! You're right though, that's the important bit to get right first!! That's why I get so disheartened really, I don't even feel like we're actually trying... how can you try to make a baby when your body won't even give you the egg!! It makes you feel just useless
Good news about the fertil-aid though, let's hope that it has set you back on track! Keep us posted hun!
Amaryllisred... any signs of AF yet hunni? I know that's crap to see AF arrive, but at least it might show that you are having a "normal" cycle and then hopefully it will mean you're on your way to getting that BFP!? And yes... the internet is EVIL!! I self-diagnose the worst possible problems when I'm feel low on PMA!! I try not to look nowadays, and even choosy on what threads I read on here too! I'm trying to not overly-stress (well no more than I'm already doing), but I'm sure you know how that goes out the window at times!!
Winniemoo1 - Anything???
Cherylbeth - welcome! I would try and not let it dishearten you too much, you're previous cycles all look good, they are all at least in the "normal" range. This cycle is probably just a one-off annovulatory one or even just a bit of a longer one. It is completely normal to have the odd weird cycle, and many women do. Try and boost that PMA for a beautiful BFP next month, we all know you can do it!!
mrspjlover that's what we are all here for hunni, to share experiences and offer support, or even just to listen to the odd rant! It is such a frustrating time, and I'm sure none of us were prepared for the rollercoaster that TTC is.
Welcome
Plutosblue!! Let's hope the next one shows up (or doesn't show up at all!
) at a reasonable time and that your cycles are finally fixing themselve, because blooming heck it sounds like you've had your fill of irregularity!! GL to you
Hi
mrsturner! Oohhh I hate when people ask "the question"!! Hardly anyone knows we are TTC for that very reason, but there is one specific person who does know who asks, I usually just avoid the question!! Could you not possibly tell the people that know that you are taking a break to let your body even itself out etc? At least that way it takes the pressure off you a bit.
Wouldluvabub - I have period type pains quite often in my cycle and I have no idea what it is, so can't really offer you any words of wisdom there. I go through all sorts of thoughts like "oohh O must be coming, this has to be O pain" "oohh at least AF is on it's way and I can start a fresh" "oohh maybe I did O after all last week and my chart is just wrong, 'cuz I MUST be PG!" "ggrr I MUST have Endo or PCOS as I have pains all the time!!" - This all starts your mind going into over-drive, it's so frustrating!! I'm sure we're going mad hunni
Woah
MrsBucko, that's only cycle and a half!! Glad your doc is doing tests though, hopefully they sort it out for you. Please keep us posted
Katiekittykat... AAAARRRRGGGHHH there is a glimmer of hope in this thread!! Let's hope the OPK's are right and FF confirms in next couple of days! Sounds like all bases are covered too
Maybe you can be our first BFP on here! Fingers crossed for Katiekittykat
Josephine3 - bodies definitely don't make it easy for you, just when you have a glimmer of hope that everything is resuming to the way it should be, it goes back on its word and screws it back up again!! I really hope everything evens out real soon for you though so you can start actively TTC! Let us know how this cycle goes.
Angelpants, of course we don't mind you gatecrashing, the more the merrier!! Oh that's godd that they are doing some tests etc, some docs won't do anything for a year! It really is crap that our bodies won't play ball, I always feel so blooming useless! Haha I agree, it sure is a mystery
It does make me wonder though how some women come off BCP and return to normal and some women don't... what's the bloody difference between us and them eh!?!? Hopefully you won't need the tests after all hun, keep us posted
Rubberducky88, ah hunni I can't really say anything to make it better, but I can offer you a massive
We can all at least rant to eachother!!
Sorry for the long post again! I've tried to split the responses out so I don't bore you all!!
HUGE hugs to all you lovely ladies!! xxxxxxxxx
