Mrs Smith - do you normally have dotting before af? I had exactly what you do, funny pink/peachy colour cm 2 days before I tested which was a day before af was due. I am keeping all fingers and toes crossed for you!

My gp is fantastic, really lovely lady and isn't keen on prescribing antibiotics unnecessarily. She did suggest i use sterimar so i have been and it seems go be drying things up.

Sorry about the bfn Ninies, fx that u get a BFP in a few days :heart:

Happy "BDing" to the ladies who are due to O this week ;)

DH: 29

I haven't had time to read everything. But thought I'd pop in for a breather!

Sorry for the BFN Ninies... I am also CD25, no AF, last month she came on CD24. So I poas too. Big fat negative too! As white as white as can be. *sigh*

I must say if AF comes on Friday, and I am back to my cycle pre kids and pre mirena, I'll be happy. Its a start. BUT not out yet! :rock:

@ Chanti: Well good luck with catching that eggy this month. Any form of renovating will definitely get your mind off things! We're also busy with some renovations at home. FF drew my coverline as CD15 the day I ovulated last month. So expecting to ovulate some time this coming weekend or even next Monday/Tuesday. Thankfully we have family coming to stay with us this weekend till next Tuesday so that will totally get my mind off TTC although we know we will definitely need to BD. Not sure if I will even have time to do the whole opk thing as we will be out quite a lot so, am really considering giving that whole testing of opk's a miss this month. Going to try and monitor with CM. Been temping as well but not sure how accurate that is. My chart looks like a rocky mountain! :blink:

Me: 28
Taking Pregnavit x1 & Be-Tab 5mg Folic acid x1 in the morning

@CarienM - I also feel my ladies everyday and cup them to see if maybe they are bigger. I remember with my son, I was going to the gym everyday and eating right and these ladies were just getting fuller and fuller. I could not understand it, as they say the first place you lose weight is at the ladies.... :laugh:
That was very funny - thanks for cheering us up.

@Chanti - If AF arrives, I dont think we will do IUI again. I know some doctors dont even consider doing IUI if DH's sperms are not more than 1 000 000. My hubby's was less than 10 000 and still the doctor did the IUI. Dont know if he would do it again though.
I think we will then just casually try, we know what the problem is. I wont spend anymore money on expensive OPK's - as I know I am ovulating. I also wont take Fertomid again as I dont need it. I will get my hubby to start taking Fertilaid, and we will wait it out. The next step would be for him to see a Urologist. Maybe he will suggest it, but I dont want to pressure him. Atleast I have one beautiful son which I appreciate more and more each day.

Sounds so nice to renovate your kitchen...that will be nice distraction.

Hi there LAdies!

@Ninies - Sorry about the BFN! As long as AF hasn't shown there is still hope. :heart: What will you do if it is a BFN? Do you do another round of IUI?

@Carien - Lol since TTC I find myself poking the ladies everyday! hahaha you aren't the only one. This pinpointing OV can be really tricky but I suppose as long as u got BD in a fews days either side then you should be covered, its just figuring out how long your luteal phase is that will be a pain.

@Jay-Bee - FX hun! Hope that test goes well on Saturday. WRT your temps and ovulation, isn't the norm that you must expect to O within 48hrs of your first positive OPK?

@MrsSmith - FX hun! you seriously have POAS control, I would have cracked. Please let us know what happens as soon as you test!


@Inca - I usually ovulate around CD13/14 and 28 day cycles, I usually start spotting at CD27 though which puts such a damper on that last day of hope.

@Liza - Congrats on the Progesterone test! FX hun xx

AFM,CD11, gearing up for the Big O!! So hope and pray I catch that eggy this month :( The TWW is getting closer, last month was so hard... I'm going to start renovating my kitchen this weekend, hopefully it is a good distraction.

@JB01 - I know right! I totally also ask my husband all the time "...so do you think they are bigger..?" and he is only too happy to oblige and find out :)

@ Carien, what a well written and funny post.

I can't give my opinion as we are trying for #1 but for the last previous cycles my bb's would hurt and get fuller when AF is approaching (this cycle they have not hurt once funny enough).

So I too grab them and feel if they hurt or bigger than normal and then jump up and ask my DH what he thinks, hahaha. :rock: :silly:
