    Hi everyone. Wow we've all been so quiet! Just wanted to update. I am currently in the middle of my O period. It's either yesterday, today or tomorrow, so guess what I've been up to? Hehe! Anyway, I decided that this cycle I wasn't going to chart/temp and I was just going to BD around the usual time and hope for the best. I just found it so hard in my last TWW. I was temping every day and obsessing about the temps and trying to analyse every tiny little 'symptom', then a big let down when AF came on the Friday and my friend from work announced her PG.

    I also decided I won't come on BB in the TWW. After tomorrow night, you won't see me until I either have AF or a BFP. I just get too obsessed and read too much into other people's hopeful comments. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE all your comments and support and everything, but I don't want my hopes raised and then dashed again, so I'll avoid BB until I know. I'm also going to try not to invent symptoms and 'play dumb' with myself (pretend that I am not TTC and have no idea what symptoms I could get etc) which is probably totally unrealistic and daft, but you gotta do what you gotta do to try and relax! So I'll keep commenting until end of tomorrow, but then the next time you hear from me I'll either have AF or a BFP. Hopefully the latter!

    Hi Phebee,

    Glad to hear it's O time for you. I understand about the wanting forget al about the TWW. It can be so frustrating at times. I hope that when you get back from your Hiatis its a BFP though not AF.

    AFM I am still waiting for O. I am doing OPK's everyday but you can barely even see the line. It's now 2wks 2 days since my m/c bleeding so I was expecting that I may have O'd a few days ago but looks like it will throw this cycle out, based on comparing opk's of other months I still have a minimum of 3 days til O at the earliest. Oh well I guess I will just keep testing. Lucky I bought 25 internet cheapies cause I have already used more than a pack of First response ones. Gah hurry up O!!!

    hi guys,

    i thought everyone had left this thread! lol im still in my TWW so i think the quietness has helped me a little in not obsessing too much! im still very anxious about it and am trying to keep busy so i dont think about.

    ill be 14 days post LH surge on saturday so i think i am going to try and wait till at least sunday or even monday to test (if i need to). we are going away for Easter so at least ill be busy having a good time with friends.

    one of our friends bought their four week old baby around on the weekend and he was so gorgeous.. i loved seeing him but it did make me even more desperate to get pregnant! i just really hope this is our lucky month!

    like phebee, ill probably stay off here as well till after Easter cuz ill be away and i think it will make it easier to not think about it too much! (fingers crossed anyways).

    bubbaT - my cycle after M/C was 42 days so if you can just keep testing. I got a bit discouraged that first month and we weren't Bd'ing all the time and then when we thought we were supposed to get AF and didn't i found it all a bit hard and we weren't BD'ing at all and that is when i O'd! so frustrating when our bodies just dont co-operate!

    happy easter to all the girls - see you hopefully when i am up the duff!

    Hi all.

    We started TTC in August last year and have had two m/c since then. We have decided to start TTC again this month. Im excited but also so scared that I'll lose another one. I'll never forget the look on DH's face when I told him our baby was gone, for a second time. Anyway, I guess I need to be positive that everything will work out this time. I hope it will for all of us.

    Happy Easter to all you ladies, and I hope you get your BFP's this month. Babydust to all!

    DG *hugs* I am so sorry about your losses Looks like your second angel was due within a month of mine. Praying you have a sticky BFP soon!

    Like I said the other day, I wasn't going to come on here after Tuesday, but I didn't have a chance last night to do a 'final' post. So I'm off now! Praying that the BDing we've done in the last few days will mean that I'm back here in 2 weeks with a BFP. If not, you'll see me back here with AF. yay. lol

    Have a lovely 2 weeks everyone!

    HI Diamond Girl, and welcome. Sorry to hear about your losses. I can relate to your fears, but hope is what gets you through. Best wishes that your continued TTC journey is very short and has a happy ending!

    minivini- bring on Easter! Can't wait to hear! Have a great weekend away.

    Bubbat- cycles after m/c can be a little erratic! It's annoying becasue all you want is normality, but your body will know when it's ready. GL!

    Phebee- TWW can be horrible, and trying not to think about it is a great strategy! GL and see you in a few weeks.

    Hi everyone else! Hope you are all in the business end of your cycles!

    AFM: Still jabbing and waiting for o. I have my first follie scan on Friday, a bit sacreligious I know, but that's when I got booked in! Unfortunately it looks as though we might o whilst camping, which could be interesting! I think things are happening, cause I've had a lot of pain in the last few days and CM seems to be increasing. I've never o'd before CD 18, and I'm CD 11 today so might be my first 'normal' cycle ever! Have a great Easter break!

    Hay girls

    It's been a while since I posted in here.

    Well DH and I must have got our timing right this month. Let's just hope one of his swimmers got my eggo preggo.

    After being on clomid, it's made me feel depressed and insignificant and my libido had suffered dramatically. Not to mention the bleh feeling, and the needles with blood tests every second day.

    But that was all worth it... I ovulated.

    Thank god!

    Now just the wait to see if it's going to be a bfp or a bfn... I hate the wait!

    Hello popping in here, we are not sure if we are going to ttc yet or ever DH is pretty tramatised as am I, although I can't help but just want to be pregnant again. I can't bare the thought that I have to go back to TTC. For fear of losing my mind I think I need to get some positivity from you girls as I try and cling on to you all moving forward hope that makes some sense.

    Hi ladies, yes im still alive, AF has settled to a very light thing so im managing. BUT 2 WEEKS FROM HELL!! last week brakes failed and then got fixed so that was all good. Last thursday I got a cold (im aenemic and run down) and friday ended up in hospital with asthma (which i havent had a bad attack in years). came out saturday arvo, worked sunday then WHAM monday morning went to go to work at 5:30am and some LITTLE S*^% has broken into our car, sprayed grafetti all over the windows, broken the small triangle window in the back, broke the ignition barral and distroyed everything else including our battery. Well the idiot left the sissors behind with blood on them and left a nice finger print so was caught a day later. coppers have charged him but his young, unemployed and so we probebly wont get a cent back off him for all the damage. So hasnt been a great time for us but now AF has semi left some good old BD has relieved some stress lol

    LnD- welcome and congrats on the BFP.
    Phee- hope you have a great easter
    to everyone else, welcome and hope the easter bunny bring some babydust lol
