    Matthews mum - Sorry to hear about your 1st embie. I hope the second is snuggling right in, and is a sticky one!

    Possum - Hope your scan goes well and you see a little hb. I like to hear updates on your pg, so please don't feel bad for sharing in here.

    Reet - *big sigh* There's no point even getting into it with him today if I want a chance of DTD tonight. We had a nice day at the animal sanctuary, so I really don't want to spoil what was a decent day. I think all the walking did me some good, and the animals were nice. Kinda helped me to forget how *****ty I felt this morning. I hope DP doesn't decide he's too tired tonight too... otherwise I think I'm out this month. Also, he's not a fan of bd during the week, since work is pretty hard on him. But geez.... sometimes we're going to have to make an exception if we want to have a baby. I can't just make it so I'm magically fertile at a time that suits him. He needs to work with me a bit here. But, of course I'll be a good woman and say nothing, just hope I haven't missed my chance. Perhaps I'll try to lure him into the shower. LOL.. I don't know, I'm running out of ideas here. Oh and thank god, nobody asked about the babymaking today. Good to hear you're going well.... there's no shortage of sausage at your house! I'm totally jealous. Don't squander that gift, woman!! Get in touch with your inner saucy vixen, lol

    AFM, spent the day taking pictures of wildlife instead of spending all day in bed, like we should have. Or at least twenty minutes... lol. Not sure how to even attempt to bd tonight, I'm getting tired of getting shot down. I'm a bit lost what to do right now.

    Sorry if I missed anyone, I'm a bit out of it after such a busy weekend.

    Bons - thanks sweetie! Try for July has a nice sound to it, but I wish you didn't have to .....

    Mathew's Mum - oh sweetie, I am sorry about EmbieOne, hoping like anything that EmbieTwo is snuggly and wishing you all the best for your TWW. It's ironic that you mentioned Mathew's and Harvey et al's grave. I am glad that you have a memorial for all your angels. People don't really talk about baby graves much do they or ask about them? DH and I just haven't really gotten ourselves to the point where we can actually let our angels go. We have a special place for them at a memorial garden and yesterday DH and I went to visit the plot - a family garden. Never did expect to need that, to be sure. But I am glad we went, it was nice just being there, and it reminded me why we chose both that place and that type of memorial in the first place and it gave me a sense of peace. It feels like the time to take the next step is getting closer....

    Murray - thinking of you for for tomorrow. Hang in there.

    Possum - thinking of you for Wednesday.

    Ionna - I am so so sad that this pregnancy appears to be slipping away. I keep hoping like crazy for you that it's just a crazy start. My thoughts are with you.

    Forshelby - hope you DP gets jiggy with it soon. How frustrating that the times he's not interested are the times you need him to be. Is there something on his mind do you think? Something he is worried about.

    Hiya to everyone else - Reet, kellbell - love your o ticker. The lady bugs are just too cute.

    All good here! Thanks for asking Bons & Possum.

    Matthews mum - It's hard to say if he would be nervous about his performance at O time. We've never had a problem in that department before, so I'm thinking he really is just tired. Still no + OPK but I've had some pain today so I think today's the day. I must have missed the surge.

    Bons - I like the massage idea.. although it could backfire on me. He might wind up so relaxed he feels more like sleep than sex. LOL... I still might keep that in my 'seductresses arsenal' though. Thanks for the tip!

    Dory - LOL @ getting jiggy with it. Now I have that stupid song in my head. I don't think there's anything really weighing on his mind right now, except for work... but that's always there, and is always really strenuous for him.

    Iona - is everything okay honey? I'm thinking of you and hoping this is just one of those unexplainable episodes. *hugs*

    AFM, We DID manage to get jiggy with it last night, so I'm feeling a bit more hopeful for this month now. I guess once is better than not at all. I haven't had a +OPK at all this month, and although yesterday's was significantly darker than the one before, today's was very faint, and way lighter than yesterday. So I think I missed my surge. Judging by the lower back pain I have and the fact that my cm is quickly drying up. (sorry for TMI) It's more watery at the moment, and I predict tomorrow will be a desert down there. Anyhoo, I managed to lie completely still for a good 20 minutes after bd last night, so I hope that was enough to do the trick. If I have indeed O'ed today like I think I have, then I'm in with as good a chance as any, I suppose. Last time we didn't DTD until O day... so I hope getting in the day before is a winner this month! Maybe if I'm extra seductive I might get one more round in tonight. He seemed to be in a good mood at work today (we work at the same place) so I might be in with a chance. I've planned a nice meaty dinner for him tonight... lol

    I'd better get going, I have a webcam date with my mum in a few minutes. Hehe... fun. Hi to anyone I missed, and I'm thinking of you all.

    AFM- I still havn't heard about my results yet, getting rather anxious now, I wonder what is taking so long.... Oh I did buy a new thermometer today though, I decided to get a proper BBT one before O time came near Hopefully this month will be the one.

    They have smaller increments to measure the subtle temp difference that is noted at ovulation!

    :yeahthat: As far as I understand (I didn't know the diff b4 either) they are more sensitive and accurate. They also measure to .00 instead of .0 dont be embarrassed, I had no idea myself lol

    Forshelby- Yay that u got one in last nite!! ..literally!! And possibly tonight! Ur a woman on a mission (god i really dont like that song.. it always gets stuck in my head tho!) Annoying that u never got that + opk.. u cant really trust em hey. Your in the 2ww now! (hopefully!)

    Damprye- Did u try calling ur dr?? I sometimes have to call to find out results if nothing urgent comes up. Waiting is awful hey! The longer u wait the more u look into ur symptoms and go craaazy! Good luck, keep us posted.

    Bons- FX that dh is home when u 'o'!! Mine was only home for a night and gone again this morning..time does go way too quick.

    Matthews mum- Hope ur good, and not going too crazy just yet in this 2ww!!

    Kellbell- thanks for clearing up what a chemical pregnancy is.. i had never heard of it before. Like i said u learn something new everyday!

    Hi Dory- Lovely seeing ur name in here

    Minniemouse- How are u?? Things looking up yet with ur relationships with ur family members?

    AFM- DH was home for 1 night and we managed to have a big argument over something stupid. I was upset all night and then ive been teary all day. I know the clomid is making me go a bit crazy though cos it happened last time i took it.. emotions all over the place!! I dont think i want to have to take it for many more months.. i might become a permanent crazy lady!! I just feel like crap at the moment.. its cold (well maybe 20 degrees haha.. thats cold for here tho!) windy and miserable.. its such lonely weather oh well tomoro is a new day!

    Goodnight xx

    Reet- Sorry that the meds make you feel like that yeah I called the docs Saturday and they said that the results would be in today so I called and nope still not in and to call back tomorrow grr it is so not cool to do this. My doc promised me that I would only have to call Saturday and that they could give me my answer. I am not being at all patient but I just want to find out what is going on already.

    hi girls,

    reet sorry to hear you had an argument with dh, i know clomid can really muck around with your moods, when i was on it i used to get thrush from it, doesnt really help with bd when you have that ! unfortunately worse news from my "family" i got a text yesterday from my brother, the 1st contact with any of them in a month and it wasn't asking how i was or what happened or how were the kids no it was asking me for money, yes thats right money ! (we got some money from my aunts estate), and he wanted me to transfer money for mum to his account (she obviously wont ask herself), so that makes it loud and clear to me they care more about the money than they do about me or my children. so there goes any small chance that they may have been able to fix this, i am completely shattered.

    Damprye: i hope you get your blood test results today ! hows your hand ?

    iona: thinking of you
