Good morning, girls!

What a fresh spring morning! So looking forward to summer!

@Nikita - I know how it feels to get your hopes up and be dissapointed every month. That's why I don't symptom spot or POAS until I definitely missed my period - Which at this stage, never happens! :P Keep up the faith! It will happen one day! Maybe even this month! You never know! Thinking of you!

@Liza - Good luck at the Gynae today. It's always awkward for me to go there... Feel so violated! lol! Maybe it's just my Gynae??!?

@ Chanti - Thanks hun! I try to remain positive and keep the faith. I'll keep you ladies updated. :)

@Inca - I'll remain positive as far as I can! Although I'm not that focused on it this month. Too much work to do! lol! Good luck to you! Really hope you caught the eggy this month!

AFM - CD 24 today. Waiting for AF to arrive... Hopefully by Tuesday, I'll know. A funny thing happened this morning. Hubby and I have this private joke with the mannequins in the store that always erect nipples. We call it: Die Winkelpop effek! This morning, out of the blue, I have the Winkelpop effect errect nipples, which is really really strange! We had a good laugh before I left for word. No tender boobs or nips at this stage, which is also strange. By now they'd be aching and very swollen, in anticipation of AF to arrive. No other symptoms noteworthy enough to mention. Just looking forward to the weekend.

Wanted to show you want I made last night. My friend's baby was the model!! I'm making a set of two for my best friends twins that are due in October. I'm still to make the blue one! What do you think??

Good Morning Ladies :)

@Anzel: Stay positive - you're not out the game yet :) :) :)

@Chanti: It totally sucks that the gynae didn't meet our expectations but I believe Liza's gynae friend at UNITAS hospital is brilliant and is very pro-natural birth. Read some reviews on him and were all positive from what I saw :) So may give him a try. I can't believe I was about to banish my dream of trying for a natural birth one day just because I may have to go to a pro-caesarian gynae :blink: Silly me!
Don't stress about it too much with hubby not being around. You only need 1 swimmer :) And when he gets back home, make sure to fit some BD n :) One of my friends fell pregnant on CD18!!!

@Liza: Good luck with the gynae today! Let us know how it goes? :)

@Nikita: Eeek so exciting!!!When are you planning on testing? :silly:

AFM, on CD17 (I think 3DPO), we BD'ed CD 13, 14, 16 and will again on CD18. Can a week please go by very quickly so that I can test?!?!?! :) :silly:

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

Morning Ladies,

@Liza - GL for today :heart:

@JB - What time are you going to the Lab?

@Anzel - I am trying not to get my hopes up or to read anything into the signs :laugh: so tired of the BFN. I really thought AF would be here today as I had cramps again last night. Not really sure what that is about, my cycles differ sometimes so I am just waiting to see what it does.
Glad that you are feeling better :heart: Will still be holding thumbs for you until AF arrives, and if she doesn't arrive, well that would just mean one thing ;)

AFM - CD24 still not sure about DPO as FF still says that I am 7 DPO and I disagree :P.

Morning Ladies

So glad it's Friday! It rained last night and this morning it's again winter outside.

We didn't get to BD last night. The thunder was so bad and our LO slept by us :silly:

Im sure i Ovulated on Monday which makes me 5DPO today. Yesterday i had very thick creamy cm if i'm correct this is only after ovulation?

@JB - Let us know how your bloods go tomorrow!! Im sure it will all be perfect :)

@nikita - holding thumbs for you too hun xx

@Liza - I reckon use the last applicator and give it all you have!

@Inca - Im sorry the gynae wasnt very nice, its important to have a good relationship with your gynae. Is there not perhaps a completely different one you can use?'

@ninies - hahaha I love how he says it must be a girl!!! DH is just doing a chilled fish, barely a proper rod in his posession!! Im a bit worried now because my temp is still low and i still havent gotten a positive OPK! testing almost 3 times a day the last two days! I seriously hope the conceive plus helps me keep some of these spermies alive until DH is back on Saturday.

AFM, Ok CD13, temps still low and no positive OPK... DH has gone fisihing and will be back on Saturday so praying that the BD we got in was sufficient if I O while he is away.

Hi, ladies

Apologies for being so quiet today! Had a really rough day. At least I'm home now, having some coffee with hubby and looking forward to a crochet evening with my girl friends.

@Ninies - I spoke to our pharmacy, to no avail. They can't order in only for one person. If I order bulk or get a few other people to order with me, they might consider it. This is the stupid thing about small towns like ours.

@JB - How you feeling today, hun? I would also not have been able to wait till next week for the follow-up bloods. I'd probably go every day! Or I would POAS every morning just to convince myself its still positive! Call my paranoid, but I don't want to end up at my first scan and doc says there is nothing! I'd die!!

@Nikita - If I recall, those symptoms might just be very early pregnancy symptoms?? I don't want to get your hopes up, but I'm holding thumbs!! Good luck!

AFM. Hubby and I are much better today. Looks like the tummy flu is all gone! :woohoo: :woohoo: So glad that's over! I am on CD23 today, approx 8/9 DPO. I am not symptom spotting at all, and I'm not planning to POAS untill I miss my period. It's due on Tuesday/Wednesday next week, if all else remain the same. I'm planning to POAS on Thursday, on my birthday, if AF has not arrived by then. If I have to symptom spot, I honestly won't have much to say. For this first cycle since we started TTC, I am not experiencing tender breasts, moodiness, skin breakout or excessive cramping/pinching/pulling in my tummy. I do have a heavy feeling in my tummy, low down almost at my pubic bone, but that's about it. The other symptoms, like bloating and exhaustion I still attribute to the tummy bug I had most of this week, so I doubt this is our month. I'm actually prepping myself to fully attempt TTC again next month, temping and all. So we'll see what happens. :)
