Roll up, roll up! Statistical chance of at least one BFP! - *15th BFP Announced!*

AF arrived this morning, boo! at least it means I have a somewhat 'regular' cycle, I hope. I get to wait 6 weeks to ovulate now, woo hoo :dohh:

6 weeks? how come??

But yeah, knowing you´re regular can be a relief!!! :flower:

my cycles are 50odd days so I won't be ovulating until january - so annoying!

did you check with a doctor why your cycles are so long? I used to be like that, then I started a non gluten diet, and now they´re 33 days long! My case was because I have PCOS!!!! Maybe the new year will bring you good luck! :happydance:
 
Hey ladies :) Jaynie - yay for you Miss fertile myrtle! Have you given any more thought to your sexy time timing? I think we'll go for the bonk like bunnies approach this month. I want to take advantage of the time off work and get it in any which way I can!

Let me know how the sweet potato chips were, I love shaking things up a bit too. Have you tried courgette chips? Beautiful when battered and fried..getting hungry again now!
Might sound a bit dim but what's the AAT course? Hope you are knockin em dead with the lashes! I'm always a bit dubious of glue around the eyes, very clumsy! What's the technique with the semi-perm ones?

I've been round a friends today. It's her birthday and there was a good group of us. It dawned on me that I was the only woman there without children. I took it all in good humour but it's a hard pill to swallow. Meh! Treating myself to coffee and homemade cookies - at least I'm good for something!

Foquita, sorry to hear about the onset of af :hugs: but certainly a relief to hear that although long, your cycles are regular. I know this may hve been mentioned earlier but have you considered Agnus Cactus to regulate/shorted your cycles? Hope you are ok despite the crappy news.

Hi Pola, Mrs! Hope you ladies are doing well and keeping your chin up! xxx

i said to her but she wasn't interested in the slightest, i'm going to go back to a different doctor i think in january if i don't conceive again! thats amazing that yours are 33 days and all with a change of diet, it would be amazing if that could happen to me! :D

i tried it last cycle and it didn't make a difference (unless the three days earlier is down to it :D), i got fertili-tea for this cycle, and we're going to try conceive plus. i'm ok, thank you so much for asking/caring :hugs: it is rubbish in the real world where i don't have anyone to speak to about it. the people who know we are TTC don't understand. my friend today said 'it'll happen when you least expect it' and i wanted to cry/punch him even though he is just trying to be nice and he genuinely thinks that is the answer! :shrug:
 
Hi all. Jaynie you busy bee. I'd love to try lashes. Great idea for an Xmas gift. Leaf I think I will take ur bonk like bunnies approach and run with it this cycle. Do u opk? I think I will just use some wilko cheapies again.

If I didn't know any better I would swear that I'm pg. probably hysterical. Starving when I wake. Shattered all day. Really thirsty and weeing loads. Can't be im on cd 7. Must be coming down with something. Have a good Friday girlies.

Hiya - it's an accounts course so you do it and it's more relevant to account tech type jobs (payroll, purchasing etc) and then you get some exams missed off your chartered for it :thumbup: I just want to work for myself one day.

The lashes are good, it's is glue but I didn't feel it and she was ever so good. They are still on and should stay for weeks if I am good with them :cloud9:

I have not thought about :sex: I'm still sad about the rows last week but I am ok now going to do an OPK in and get some last minute :sex: in :haha: over the weekend maybe the next 3 days if we can :shrug:

The bf like crazy sounds like a good approach :)
 
:dohh: I forgot the sweet potato chips were lovely :munch: really good. They kind of went from being done to burnt in a very short amount of time. My OH even liked them so they must be a bit good :haha:
 
I have been busy Mrs - never as busy than now (just since I lost my job)

The lashes, I love them :cloud9: can never quite believe them when I look in the mirror!

I'm just back from the docs now... I have to do the bloodtests glad she hasn't dragged my OH in to it though. Also, foquita she wasn't bothered when I told her that my cycles change in length but she was probably trying not to worry me because she has still deigned a blood test appropriate. That is all I wanted :smug:
 
Jaynie what cd days r ur bloods for. Are they for one month only? Glad she did what u hoped. Good to keep busy. I do love ur attitude.

CD 1-3 for FSH, thyroid, renal profile (will that test alcohol/nicotine/drugs:shrug:?)

CD21 for progesterone...

Is that the right thing for her to do? I didn't mention TTC but she guessed and wrote 'Trying to Conceive, oligomenorrhoea (random periods)
 
Sounds right to me. I had 2 cd21s to do. Haven't been able to do the second yet. I do think the nurse wrote out 2 by accident tho. When can u do yours. Good luck. Xx

I wonder why you get 2? :shrug:

I decided to do mine in the same cycle and cause I am half way through a cycle it will be the next one I get but maybe even the one after that as Christmas is really going to get in the way of it.

I forgot to thank you for the kind words re: attitude :) sometimes it's so hard to stay positive but it's better in the long run. I am glad to have met the people on here that I have as my real life experiences of people TTC aren't representative at all my best friend fell pregnant with both her boys on only the 2nd month trying one of my other friends fell by accident and my sister did too. I don't know if that was a cover up. As far as girls go I am unsympathetic to accidental pregnancies as it's been so easy for me to not be pregnant. Anyway I rant.

Adam has gone out all day today to play COD *rolls eyes* so I got some needles that I need to start cabling :happydance: and got some fresh provisions from the market to cook because I love do love to cook new stuff. I have a book I am reading and Curly Sue is on :yipee: I am so easily pleased.
 
Hi ladies :) I've had the longest lie-in on record today, feeling completely rejuvenated after a night of naughty fun! It was just what the doctor ordered! Literally!

After my appointment on Friday we have agreed to carry out CD21 Prog test on Dec 7th. I also have to take a urine sample to check for any UTI's and my ultrasound has been requested, just waiting for an app. OH has to repeat his SA in one month which will be requested for 9th Dec. I am much happier with this new doctor. She seemed to know exactly what she was talking about.

She also requested that I use OPK's this cycle Mrs as I hadn't really had much experience with them. A few times I had run out just as I was getting a faint line so just guessed that I would be fertile on the days that followed. I'm at the point where I can't assume anything so Wilko's - here I come! Are you testing twice a day around your fertile time?

All in all, I'm a very happy girl. I may not have a bun in the oven but I'm getting all the ingredients together!

How very bizarre that you are having pg. symptoms! It's probably psychosomatic. I look about 6months pg atm and I can't blame it on water retention as I am nowhere near that time!

Foquita, sorry I do remember you taking AC last cycle, perhaps it did contribute towards the 3 days. My friend who took a while to conceive swears by this but I think her cycles were irregular not particularly long. Good luck with the fertile-tea and conceive +!

Don't get me started with the 'relax and it'll happen' comments! If I had a fertile egg, some healthy sperm and an inviting womb everytime someone said that to me...! I suppose they mean well and don't really know the lengths you're going to to conceive.

Jaynie ah I see! Payroll, purchasing positions are very well paid so you'll be set up nicely and even better if you can set up your own Accountancy firm (is that the plan?). I've dabbled with working for myself with my crafty creations selling them at vintage fairs, consigning and selling on-line. It was great but wasn't bringing in the money for me. I will definitely try again with it at some point. Best of luck to you, I'm sure you'll be fab at whatever path you decide to take.

Going to have to give the Sweet Pot chips a bash, I got hooked on Beetroot crisps (bought, not made) a while back s these sound right up my alley!
 
Leaf: I think I will use opk twice a day on my fertile few days this week. I'm glad things were more satisfying at the dr for you. I'm looking forward to opening my advent calendar especially day 19 when we can visit the consultant.

We r going to a fertility clinic open day next Saturday. Just for a bit of info. Hopefully we won't need it but I think information is power.

Hope everyone is ok.
 
Jaynie. I don't know why I get 2. Think it was a mistake tbh. Post some pics of your creations. I am sometimes second to the ps3 I use the time for a bath and take advantage of him feeling guilty!!

If only I could mould something out of some guilt but that doesn't happen!!
 
Soooooo.

You are all on about doing OPK's twice a day. If you have the time or inclination to do it DO IT. I missed my positive OPK this cycle :nope: haven't had a whisper of a line. But I have had massive temp spike. Buuuuut, I was deliberately late with my temp this am because I normally do 6am but I didn't go to bed til 3am due to a :wine: session :blush: :blush: (Mrs this is also the reason why I haven't yet made any creations :haha:). So I don't yet know how reliable my temp is because 1- the time (10am +4hrs) 2- the drinking! I'll see. I'm enjoying the relaxed approach anyway.
 
Leafy - you must've needed as my MIL says. I always kick myself for sleeping in at the weekend I'm an early bird even this morning I started stirring at 9 after dozing off at 3.15 ish :haha:

I don't want my own firm as much. You can do it from home and make enough money - hopefully this will tie in with my imaginary 'kid's'!
 
Good for u jaynie. A good night out puts ttc into perspective. As I say 'a positive opk/temp spike/ewcm does not a baby make' that and 'have u read the nice guidelines'. So get bding missy.
