Oh yeah and I forgot my update. I'm CD7 today. I have had the sorest BBs but nothing else to report.

Here's a link to my chart (because I'm still faithfully doing it): https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/32d121. I'm not too excited about the dip below the coverline yesterday because I know that its not possible to be pregnant and my temp seems to drop pretty consistently for a day or so around that time of the month...

OH booked a weekend away (to reward himself for having to do another sperm test on Fri LOL!) which suits me just fine. I upgraded us to a spa suite because they have a massive spa bath (obviously) but also gorgeous wood fires which we'll actually be able to use because its just cold enough!!! Yay xx

Yep - AF got me but I'm happy because I got a new minivan. The old one has had too many issues in the last 12 months so with this latest problem, we've decided to get a new one! I'll post pics later today! It's so nice inside!

Here we go again another month of TTC - I'm so over it ...

KB38 - what a nice weekend getaway! Wish we could do something like similar, but if the 2 of us left we might not come back for a few weeks! Thanks for sharing your chart...I always had the same dip around cd6-8...i figured it was my body trying to implant but it just never worked.

Im doing ok bit annoyed as I did loads of Bding was sure id of got pregnant ... oh well Im sure it will be soon...

 

[squeshie]

Have a super holiday JM and KB - I have been using my free time thinking of where we might venture to this summer.

Jenn exciting about the new motor, any plans for future journies in it?

Thanks for all your kind words, the community midwife is coming to my house this weekend before the private scan and I have managed to get an evening appointment for the scan in 3 weeks instead of 4 time. Luckily I have this private scan as well but it is a bit ridiculous - fingers crossed anyway!

 

[shinona]

Thanks everyone!

Well, my good news is that my hubby was promoted this week to Sergeant (police) so he hasn't had to do 3 of the night shifts due to the move. So, my fingers are crossed again.

Hiya girls, just got back from hols last night. Missed u all.

Nice to see you stopping in again Shinona, congrats to OH!

Squeshie - so relieved all is ok hun. Must be a huge weight off your mind.

KB- hope you enjoyed your weekend away. Keep using the pre-seed! - give those spermies the best possible chance - u never know. Hope you're feeling a little brighter about things . Let us know how it all goes.

JM - u r getting so close. So excited about seeing piccies of Evie when she's born. I still need to post my 12wk scan photos - have been lazy with getting them on here!

:wave: JennJenn - where's your van piccies then? I am nosey lol!

How was Cyprus JR? We had a lovely week - weather quite varied, but was just nice to be away from work and to have a whole uninterrupted week with OH and LO was lovely. His routine is shot to pieces since we got back - he won't go to sleep without screaming! - so we have some work to do there now, but hey ho, it was worth it

 

[KB38]

Weekend was a disaster. OH came down with a major flu so spent the whole weekend in bed, I broke my toe on a slight rise between the carpet and tiles into the bathroom, AND AF arrived 4 -5 days early (CD25 which I think is the shortest cycle I've ever had and it was really painful) I wish something would go right for us. Anyway, I'm trying to think positive so I guess it means I'm already CD3 so not long to go until ov'n again...

 

[Jennjenn]

KB38 - that was a crappy weekend! I hope things are better for you now and OH especially! Keep up hope and take each day as it comes (which is easier said than done)!

LucyLu - I only have a few crappy pictures, but as soon as I get a good one I will post it!

Squeshie - congrats and I know that is one hurdle you are glad to be done with! Can't wait to see your pics!

How is everyone else - summer is just crazy busy! We're having a big party Saturday night at our house - my DH is turning 37 - youngster I know lucky ME!

 

[lindzdaisy]

Hello! This is my first "natural" TWW... as I believe I ovulated on my own for the first time on June 17th (all other cycles have been clomid/hcg trigger induced).

Got my smiley on CBE digital June 17, and lots of before and after, so crossing my fingers for a natural this month so I don't have to see the specialist next cycle.


baby dust to all of us!! and good luck with everyone's patience during their TWW!

 

[Lucy Lu]

:Hugs: KB - sorry you had a crappy weekend hun. That's bizarre about your af - maybe something was trying to attach given the pre-seed??? When is your OH's next appointment?

:wave: lindzdaisy - hope you get that bfp really soon hun! x

 

[Jennjenn]

Howdy neighbor lindzdaisy - you'll find quite a few 'expecting' on this board and a few of us TTC. We're a motley crew and a little bit of everything. I'm 41 (yikes) TTC #3 with 2 DD at home - age 4 and 10. We're going the natural route as the specialist here recommended IUI with all the drugs - about $4k-$5k per try. I'm too old for Clomid, so I go directly to injectible gonadotropins...

 

[lindzdaisy]

Thanks Lucy. I'm 5 DPO now and the wait is just killing me. lord knows if I knew it wouldn't be a waste of stick I'd bee peeing on one already!

Nice to meet you JennJenn! That is quite a time with the money situation. I will be in the same boat soon if I don't get my this month. I'm 25 (today! ), TTC #1 and have exhausted my Clomid rounds, as the last one gave me strange visual disturbances so my doctor wants me to head to injectibles next, Not looking forward to spending the money, that's for sure. though I know it will be worth it.

 

[Jennjenn]

Lindz - just read your journal and congrats on the ovulation w/out meds. Sorry to hear you cannot go back on clomid. I have several friends that got pregnant with it.

A few of us have been BBT on fertilityfriend.com. It's a great website, and I used it for 5months. Finally I got too depressed every day when I was taking my temp, so I stopped tracking my BBT. But I still use it for recording my cycle, +OPK, sexysex, etc. It's great for forecasting out the optimal fertile dates and your estimated cd1. They give you a free trial for 1 month, so you might try that. Be warned - it's addicting!

Don't worry - your BFP will come before you know it!

 

[lindzdaisy]

Thank you! I'm guess I'm not really sure if I actually O'ed because I never had a blood check to make sure, but I'm assuming (or maybe just trying to be optimistic) that I did. I guess we shall see next Thursday if I get that BFP.

I will check out FF, I had looked at it a while back but never got into it, the temping always kind of intimidated me as I'm pretty forgetful when it comes to things like that. Thanks for the tip, though!
