    Been trying to temp but still waiting my for thermometer - been using my DD's baby thermometer.
    i have put it right next to my bed so i take it as soon as i wake up. My DP has looked at me half asleep wondering what im doing but he hasnt asked yet
    I have some opk's still left from last month will start using them next week my cycles have been long so dont want to start them too early. Silly body better not lay my egg early lol im counting on the end of next week.
    i don't like the opks so when i run out not going to use them anymore i always seem to miss the surge just get the faint lines then nothing
    My DP wasnt in the mood last night hopefully tonight let the bonanza begin!!!!!

    Hi Lovely Ladies
    Well Ive been trying to catch up - seems a lot has been happening.

    Iona and Damprye ~ So sorry your pregnancies didnt end up being viable
    Good luck to you both - keep trying ladies!

    Murraycod ~ Im so very Yay. All the best for the next 9months!

    Sara ~ Im sorry for your loss and welcome. I had my very early m/c in Feb and my body is still trying to get back to normal - im currently at CD44 and still no AF but not pg. Hope that doesnt seem cruel in telling you that, as I know what its like you just want to get pg again but unfortunately our bodies just need a bit of time. Mind you that didnt stop DH and I from DTD - you still need to live normally and give everything you've got. Good luck! Hope you get into the pg threads very soon.

    AFM ~ Things are starting to finally look up for us, we've sold our tractor! So may be able to do another IVF earlier than October afterall. Also just found out im going to be an aunty again - which Im very excited about. My (34 y.o.) sis is 9weeks with their 1st. Im just so happy they havent had the same issues as us. Im still not going to track my cycles for a while and just live normally for a bit - try not to stess - see if I can anyway

    Hi everyone and wishing you all the very best!

    Loops- Lovely to see u in here! I had a smile on my face while reading ur post.. one second ur saying u are on cd 44 and then next ur saying u are trying not to track ur cycle.. hahaha.. ur exactly like me!! I m always saying I am going to just let things happen and relax a bit.. but it never happens.. i still count everyday!! Isnt it frustrating!
    Have u been to doctor to get progesterone levels check.. i had to do that.. they cld then tell me if my af was on its way or if my body was just way of whack. Or maybe u can do what u said u want to.. and try and forget about it for a while!
    Good luck x

    Hi all!

    Thank you for you kind words of encouragement and sharing your own experiences with me

    I am still quite up and down with my decision but I am more leaning towards waiting until I have finished Uni.

    I have a few oversea's opportunites coming up next year which Baby would have been well and truely born for so I think its probably best that I wait.

    In saying that...you could see me back in here. I'm just going to let fate take its course.

    Thanks again for all your support. Its really helped.

    Wishing you happy and healthy journies to land!

    Take care!

    Reet ~ LOL, I kinda meant once I start on my next cycle. I was already waiting a long time for AF so I know where I am now and am hanging out wanting AF to come and then I'll forgot about it , well try anyway :P Thanks for the idea about the P4 check though, I never knew you could do that. Although I feel she is just round the corner now as I have sore bbs, mucous and slightly achey. Hoping by Sunday.
    Good luck with your cycle this month, FX!

    Sara ~ Good luck with everything, the universe will decide for you as I believe everything happens for a reason. All the best x

    Loops - welcome back... good to hear about the tractor!!!! What a drawn out process its been.... that does mean $$ for IVF - yeah!

    Reet - enjoy the weekend....

    Bons - is your boy home for the weekend too?

    Sara - welcome and goodbye and I am sorry about your angel. The shortest I have waited is one cycle ( well did sneak in a sneaky BD...) and the longest I have waited is 3 cycles. The time frame was to give myself and DH time to heal physically and emotionally. You'll know what's right. Don't put pressure on yourself about it, you'll know.

    Forshelby - so this month I can call you Emu? Hope the different strategy works..

    AFM - well the "do" is a colour and foils...... it's come out a little too red toned for me, rather than brown. Oh well it will fade. I didn't get a cut, I was too exhausted after the colour etc. But will go back for a trim soon. Rushed one of the fur babies to the vet this morning as he was vomitting most of yesterday and then through the night. All good since the vets and all he got was some fluids and a recommendation to fast. Seems like he just had a tummy upset. It's nice he seems to be feeling well again, and even had a great cuddle with me this arvo.

    Have a god weekend

    Dory- I'm glad your furbaby is doing better. It is always a scare when we don't know what is wrong with our lil ones.

    Loops- Horay abput the trailor.

    Sara- I hope things improve and you get your baby at the right time

    Reet- I know I can't help but constantly think about TTC lol.

    Kellie- using DD's thermometer is fine. I used DS's until I could get my BBT one

    Baby dust to yoy all

    AFM- According to FF it is time to start the BD bonanza but by the looks of it I wont get to DTD until at least Sunday if at all during my fertile window. I hope FF is wrong and that O day is a little further on. I have been using OPKs for the past three days (they're even more addictive than HPTs lol) and so far coming up negative but a second line is there. I hope they help pinpoint my O even better and that the timing does work out
