    Thanks ladies
    It is such a hard journey, that I think I just need to try and sit back and think before cracking it at DH next time. He has also been through a great ordeal with his work injury - fractured neck. We are doing heaps better, he seems to be listening and I think he understand why I was angry. He got the all clear to go back to work yesterday - so that has def cheered him up.

    Crafty ~ I too will be , please please please just one more miracle for craftymummy!

    Sunbeam ~ thanks for all your wonderful suggestions. I suggested IUI to DH and he said yeh that could be a good idea so I think I'll look into how much it is, yes especially since we did almost get there naturally recently. I hope you dont get to drink at your party but still have a great time!!

    Saff ~ not too long to go, FX'd tight for you hun

    hope everyone is well and enjoy the weekend!

    Hi girls,
    Been quite in here.

    Saffy - Anything?

    Loops - I really think IUI is worth a try again worked well for me and I was only out of pocket $500 each time.

    AFM - Just a question if this happens to anyone else. My OPK was very pos from 9.30am yesterday and still at 2.30 but today at 12 very neg again same as last cycle. I'm not sure if maybe my surge is happening late the day before but I always used to get pos. for 2 days. Guess it does not matter so long as it happens just bit curious. Anyway, did insems thurs, yesterday and doing one today. So TWW from tomorrow. Feeling quite happy that i'll either get a BFP or I'll be able to drink at my party bit of a win/win month, nice.

    Hope you are all having a lovely weekend.

    Thanks Sunbeam ~ def IUI sounds like a plan!
    My cycles sometimes do strange things like that - sometimes its hard to know what is happening. Our bodies or the OPK's like to keep us guessing. I think as long as you DTD as much as possible is the key goodluck hun.
    FX'd for a good TWW and the best possible outcome!!

    I went to visit friend in hospital and her newborn bub. Gorgeous to see - not too hard because I'm just happey to get a hold and a cuddle and live in hope that it will be me one day soon this friend knows she can have a babysitter at pretty much anytime lol

    hi girls,

    Loops- good if you can try the cheaper option!! Great news if you can do IUI. I think your DH will feel better when he goes back to work, its hard to be off work for a long time.

    Sunbeam- I don't usually do OPKs once i have a positive so don't know how long they last for, but when I was having blood tests this cycle and double checking with OPKs, I had my LH surge on the Sunday ( picked up by BT at 10am) but my OPK was neg that day and didn't come up positive til the next day ( !), so that makes me think your surge was probably earlier rather than later IYKWIM. Glad you are in tww now!

    craftymummy- did you see the news item about the woman who had a baby at 50? ( natural conception) I really hope you wish comes true one more time xx

    Hi everyone else, I hope all the girls who are UTD are doing ok, please let us know xx

    AFM- nothing happening here AT ALL, trying to remain calm and distract myself, but starting to feel it isn't going to work. I can't bear to poas, if I get to Monday without spotting I might do it then, but would be so shattered to get a one-liner it may not be worth it. No sore boobs, no cramping, no anything else, its so depressing to think about getting a BFN. Oh well, I just have to keep getting through one day at a time. Feels like the longest tww ever!!

    hi girls,

    just popping in quickly to say

    saffy: i had no symptoms either, no cramping which i was paying close attention too, fingers crossed for you, you have reached the point where i was starting to lose the plot in my cycle..........i'll be stalking

    sunbeam: sounds like things are on track for you, be stalking you too. did you find somewhere for your birthday ?

    loops: hopefully you have a few options left not just IVF, hope things improve when DH is back at work

    hi to everyone else

    afm: going ok i hope, have my scan next week, will let you know how it goes :-)

    Saffy: Nasty old TWW. I feel for you. I hope you get good news at the end of it. I came to the conclusion after a while that it was just impossible to predict the outcome. With this pg, i was certain AF was coming: I felt like a madly hormonal cow leading up to when AF was due. Terribly irritable etc. Didn't feel pg at all. And an early POAS was negative. But then AF didn't come and the next POAS was positive. So, you can't always tell.

    Sunbeam: Good luck for your TWW!
    Loops: Sounds like you've had a very stressful time of it. I hope you come up with a good plan B that works for you cost-wise and brings you the bub you dream of.
    Crafty: I also read that story about a woman LTTC who got an unexpected natural BFP at 50! Extraordinary things sometimes happen...

    Hi everyone else!
