Dory,
Thanks hun, i will look that book up. By emotional needs i mean- just to feel supported and considered. It sounds like he does that for you. That makes me happy for you babe. Enjoy your time at home sweety and i hope it is restful.

Chez,
I am sorry to hear that this was not your month. It is amazing what an affect the moon has on one's cycle. I am in awe of our positive outlook, you are so right- New Beginnings. What a wonderful thing to take note of. Thinking of you.

AFM,
Well i have, it appears contracted a virus. I found out nearly a week ago...thankfully before ovulation, that I have CMV in my system and it is active. Really not good for pregnancy so i have been told not to TTC for now. I was gutted to say the least and really concerned for a while there. Now i am just trying to focus on getting better. It has hit me a little with tiredness, dizzy moments, diarrhea, poor appetite and achy muscles. A lot of the time you don't know you have it as it can be symptom free.
I was feeling funny and totally amiss for TTC, just couldn't get in the mood and almost avoiding dtd this month...no libido, so tired. Went and got tested and this came up...thank god my body was telling me it was a no go. Anyway so i am quarantined from the kids and preg ladies in my life for a couple of weeks at least and i will get tested again. Taking homeopathics and resting.

I have also found that i have not ovulated like clockwork this month and until yesterday (today cd18) i thought either i didn't at all or it was back with my AF. I had EWCM with AF this time but didn't use OPK at that time of the cycle to know for sure as i was away. Anyway CM16 i had small amount of EWCM and then i have tested + for Ov yesterday and today. Very late for me. I am usually CD14 -16 at the absolute latest and on very rare occasion.
So there is something not quite right with my body atm which unnerves me. I am so bloated and with all the other symptoms i was feeling i did a POAS and it came up neg thank goodness. Never thought i would say that.
Just trying to keep my head on straight this month, a bit more to deal with than the usually.

LOve and wishes to all xoxoo
