Beata - I had been thinking the same thing as you about AF not coming for me. I have been doing pretty well emotionally recently so I'm hoping my body catches up soon! You're so organised having an appointment for your next cycle already, although I'm sure you won't need it
Megan - hi, hope things are going well for you. I understand your worry about the NT scan - that's where it all went wrong for us too. I truly hope and pray that you have a better result this time around
Aries - what a lovey way to remember your son and your grandfather. I think we will definitely do something with balloons as well, although I haven't spoken to DH about it yet. Re your pain - I think you should pursue seeing a gyn or at least getting a pelvic scan done. I had a painful cyst a few years ago which was borderline size to be removed surgically. Luckily my body sorted it out so that wasn't required. Also OPKs can give false positives. My TCM doesn't like them because of this and believes that temping and observing CM will give a better indication of O than OPKs, and it's cheaper!
Samcougar - I hope you did manage to catch your O this cycle. And good luck with the house purchase, how exciting!
AFM, saw my TCM yesterday. She is very happy and says I am responding splendidly. She thinks I O'd while we were on holiday which is good news, therefore, I should have AF sometime on the weekend or early next week. If I don't, I have to POAS just in case. Had a slight change to herbs, nothing too severe, just in case a miracle happened and we managed to catch my egg this cycle!
Some work friends took me out for lunch today for my birthday, which was really nice. The wife of one turned up with their 2 week old baby boy. I was really proud of myself that I coped really well and managed to relax and enjoy how beautiful he is, and even managed a chat to the mum. I was relieved a little when they put him down after about 15 minutes so he could have a sleep in his carrier, that way he was out of my sight instead right across the table from me. A month ago I would have disappeared to the bathroom in tears but I feel much stronger and able to deal with other babies now. I am also feeling more confident that I will fall pg again, of course am hoping sooner rather than later.
