    Hi everyone - seems like everyone is waiting to O, or in the TWW!

    I've been laid flat by a migraine the past 2 days. Otherwise crusing along, trying not to think about it. Have had some symptoms, but most can be explained away (eg I've been funny about smells the last couple of days, but that could have been due to the headaches). Fingers crossed for more BFPs!

    Hi all,

    jenjams - well done for giving up coffee and alcohol. I found giving up coffee easy at first (I did it several months ago) but now I find I crave it every now and then. When I really crave it I have a hot chocolate instead and that seems to work well.

    sallyj - Fingers crossed for a BFP for you in a few days.



    Well FF gave me back my coverline on CD13 as expected so I'm now 3DPO. Now the hard part starts.... the waiting and the trying not to test.

    satya the things we do on FF hey, we are officially cycle buddies, as predicted FF moved O day forward to cd 15 after I put in today's temp. As for the scrapbooking weekends, I go on at least 1 a year, I normally go on a Friday night but DH didn't think I NEEDED to go for 2 night. I have the LC 10 mui tests (4 actually) and it is going to kill me to wait till 14 dpo
    zionsmom thanks for your positive thoughts, I know it will be our turns soon, just wish it didn't have to take too damn long.
    maz 7 weeks, that would be so damn frustrating, praying that AF comes for you soon.
    jenjams I just can't give up my morning coffee, I only ever have 1 a day, but when I am pg I usually go off it anyway so good on you for giving it up now.
    SallyJ that's a pretty big spike you had this morning, hope you get your bfp

    Well ladies I had an absolutely fantastic weekend away, even though it wasn't long enough. When I rang my friend to say that I had arrived at the retreat she went running through the area we scrap in screaming "she's here, she's here, my bestest buddies here" I love her to death, she was my rock after my m/c. There is a group of 4 of us who get on fabulously, and have so many laughs, wet your pants kind of laughs (literally for those of us who have had kids LOL) we played silly games during the night, including musical chairs, and my bf and I sang along to many a Robbie Williams song. We finally decided we better go to bed when we heard a rooster in the distance crowing and realised it was 4.30 am. I can't wait till my next retreat in August!

    No symptoms for me, although I wouldn't expect any at 3dpo. Nighty night, think I better go to bed and try and catch up on some sleep.

    Sounds like a great retreat Sharon.

    My words yesterday of my chart behaving itself have gone today. I had a big temp dip but I still have this head cold... maybe that affected it... Hope so. Anyway I will just start the BD this week and see what happens. I really hope everyone in here has BFPs this month. I am sure we are all over being in this thread.

    Happy week to all.

    jenjams when do you normally O, if you normally O later maybe you are going to O early this cycle, I suppose if it was me I would be making sure I got a bd in tonight, good luck and I hope that your temps behaving the way they are supposed to. As for us all being over having to be in this thread, I have to agree with you 100% there.

    Hi girls,

    Sharon - sounds like you had a great weekend! That sounds like lots of fun.

    jenjams - good on you for giving up alcohol and caffeine. I figure it can only be good, so if you can do it, why not? I have given up coffee and now I only drink decaff tea, and I don't drink much alcohol, other than a half glass every now and then. It's hard giving things up as we have no idea how long we will be on this ride for, and you don't want to miss out on too much in the meantime!

    maz - you must be getting so sick of the wait. I hope AF comes soon!

    zionsmum - thanks for your telling us to stay positive. I needed that today!

    Leyla - looking at your chart I think you could be having an annovulatory cycle too. You are not being overly dramatic - this is a hard road, and we all understand. And IT WILL happen for you, it is just obviously going to make you wait, but don't lose hope

    Salt - I am glad your OB is taking you seriously and is willing to see you in three cycles if you haven't conceived. Sometimes it feels like they don't understand our sense of urgency, but that's great that he will do something for you quickly if it becomes necessary. Hopefully it won't though and you will be UTD in no time at all now that the nasty clot has been taken care of!

    My injections are finally over, and my pg BT is tomorrow. I am too scared to even go to get it done, and am considering just not going, but I know I have to. I hate the wait for them to phone with the results, and I get really nervous and anxious. I thought I might just take the day off, as I can't work in that state anyway, but now it looks like I will have to be at work to take care of an urgent matter, as I will be at a seminar the following day. So, I am not quite sure how I will get through the day with my sanity intact - it has taken enough of a battering lately! I also had to sit through dinner last night listening to my idiot BIL who has never had a hard day in his life prattle on about how depression is just in peoples heads and they should 'toughen up'. I had to leave the table, the guy is a ********. I would like to see him go through 2 m/cs in a row and not suffer depression, not to mention all the other terrible things that can happen in life to bring on depression, he is just one of the lucky ones who has only ever had things go his way, so his view on life is a little skewed at the best of times. It was obvious to everyone else at the table that I have been pretty depressed lately (not to mention my other BIL who was there and has suffered from depression his entire life), and that perhaps it would be a good idea if he shut up. The guy is just too arrogant and too much of an idiot to ever consider someones feelings other than his own.

    Sorry for the rant, but it all has me a bit down today.

    Hi to everyone else, and I hope you all have a lovely day.
