Morning Ladies

@Ninies i also think AF is on her way on my side. Have cramps this morning this is what i usaully get before AF since i've been on Fertomid. Have not started spotting but AF is due over the weekend.

Think is should phone up my gynie in advance and figure out what the next step will be. Don't want to go away this weekend and then i miss my "fertomid" if that is what lies ahead for us this month. Were only coming back on Tuesday.

TTC since Jan 2014 to now

@mrs Smith - Sorry to hear you are all down today.
I just realised we are exactly in the same boat. I also stopped using BC more than two years ago, been TTC for 1 year and 8 months. Have a son that is turning 4 this year. And also thinking....is it worth it putting myself, my marriage and all other things through this month on month on month. Why not give all my money and energy to my son...But deep down in my heart I still have a place and lots of love for another soul in my life.

Maybe a good idea to get DH to go for the SA and get some clarity on what exactly is hindering you from getting pg and then you can work on that and focus on that.
I honestly wiish we started there a year ago. And not just assumed because we have a child, the issue is with me. That way, I think we would have had success by now as we could have spend all this money and time on focusing and fixing the issue. I call it an issue, because it is not a problem but you ladies know what I mean. :heart:

@Thandi - you are still in the game hun, keep the faith. Good luck with the eye infection, I can imagine how painful that must be.

@CarienM - stay positive! Holding thumbs for your BFP this cycle.

AFM - CD27 today. 12DPO. I had very bad period pains yesterday (could be due to the Fertomid that I used this cycle). I usually know when she is on the way by the cramps, acne and terrible moods I have. I have not started spotting yet, I normally do spot 2-3 days before she comes. I am expecting AF to arrive saturday or sunday. Also not sure how long my cycle will be. One month was 31 days, then 29 days, so who knows.

Morning ladies,

@Mrs Smith - dont lose hope, yes this is really disappointing, but dont lose hope, if your destiny is to have another beautiful child you will have one, just trust in the Big Guy and I agree with @Nikita - might be a good idea to drag your husband along

@Thandi - really sorry to hear your eye is worse, not fun at all :(

AFM - I am either 4, 6 or 7 DPO - if I go with FF's initial interpretation I am 4DPO, if I go with mine, I am either 6 or 7 DPO, if it is 7 the only just b/c I am pretty sure I ovulated during the night so could have been just after midnight, or just before, anyway, bit confusing TBH. Either way I am on CD19 today. My cycles have been a bit odd lately as well ranging between 25 and 29 days, this from being completely regular on 28 days. Anyway, cant say that I am feeling much different from what I normally do, I think my (.)(.) are a bit bigger, but again I have been feeling them so much I really just dont know TBH :). I am still very positive about this cycle, this is going to be the one :)

Baby dust to everyone, all shall happen in its due time :heart:

Thank you ladies.
I just feel so down about it all. And of course questioning once again whether or not to keep trying or just give up. We have already have one absolutely amazing son. Is there really a point to torturing myself each and every month? I've been off birth control for 2 years now and we've been actively trying for about 1.5 years. Yet nothing so far. I don't know. I know it's the hormones. My feelings about the subject do this each and every month. different times in my cycle my moods are different. Right now just feeling very flat though.

I need to go soon for annual blood tests, so considering hauling dh along (maybe this saturday?) and getting his sperm done at the same time. That way at least we know where we stand one way or the other.
