Silver! Sorry - bronze.

I'm out this month - George arrived this morning in all his glory.

The most exciting thing for me is this makes 3 x 28day cycles in a row!!!! which is very exciting for me, think things may finally be settling down after being on the OCP!

Looks like I'm out guys, George is about to start. *sob* cry1.gif And early again. Maybe I now have 25 day cycles. It's certainly cutting it fine on the luteal phase.

Despite knowing at O time that it probably wasn't going to be my month (what with hubby's surgery and my dodgy syringe method), my body still managed to completely trick me into thinking I was UD. Evil!

I'm much more relaxed about my coal this month though, compared to the first two - other than the disappointment of not having a Christmas announcement, I think I may be able to skip the teary breakdown this month.

And it's also probably for the best, as my division is being restructured in the next couple months and I will have to interview for my position in February. This way I don't have to worry about hiding a pregnancy in the interview.

FX for everyone still in the race!

Hey MJ - am at a FS. Done a round of clomid now too. Already baffled FS a bit with why it's not happening sad.gif


Thanks for all that baby dust gemcat *****



C'mon, we need some more BFP's for the month!!! Who's testing today?!

Mags noticed I wasn't on the list. Can you put me down for 24th..thanks
born to be a mum
hey everyone original.gif someone mentioned my spotting was probably something called a withdrawal bleed so now it will be hard to pinpoint ovulation because it wasn't an actual period so looks like ill have to BD every second day to try catch it, 20 hours till my mum has her c-section im so excited i wanna scream haha
*molly*
Hi girls, hope everyone is well. Super confused about my cycle... I was sure I o'd but my temp has dropped right back down for the last two days. So frustrating! sad.gif

Posting!!!

Know how you feel - I stalk this forum soooo much! blink.gif

I keep wanting to post, but can't always think of something to say! Also trying not to say too much about me, as we haven't told anyone we're TTC - except all the lovely people in here of course!! Just don't want the people in 'the other world' to know until we have our BFP! hands.gif

At the moment, (TMI ALERT) it's CD15 & am on my fourth day of EWCM, so thinking maybe not quite O'd yet, but very close. SWI most days! Lucky DH llove.gif !

Woops, didn't realize their was a new thread. Hmm.

Anyway, going insane. Maybe 2WW, maybe not. Maybe 5dpo, maybe 0 lol Stupid unknowns! I posted this in thee other thread, but does anyone else want to join me in trash-tv and exercise marathon'ing? I've got season 3 of Real Housewives of Atlanta and my elliptical trainer. I'm good to go! 30 mins so far today. Planning another 30 once dinner settles. I'm tired of sitting around staring at conception articles, pee sticks, and generally going loopy.

Kpingitquiet - I'm in for the trash tv (if there's anything on!) but can't be a$ed exercising!

FHL - still holding out hope for you. Stay away George *stern look & shaking finger*

Better go cook some rice to have with leftovers. Mmm... Indian...

Thanks happy.

for whoever asked about the scary chick in the merlin ads last week there was an evil witch woman with weird skin over her eyes who was a random. Also merlin turned himself into an old woman witch as a disguise. cant wait for next week - looks action packed and i think merlin gets stabbed! not long left in the series... hope its not a to be continued - i dont have the patience!!

Im lurking too but have nothing to add just yet..... working loads at work on the crystal swan and start bd'ing tomorrow as george ends tonight. I am also gender swaying for a girl so bd'ing will stop on the 15th or 16th, im due to get a +ve OPK on the 18th and they last a few days. Its known that you have to stop 2-3 days before O and when you get a +ve OPK it means you are due to O 24-36 hours after so would you suggest i stop bd'ing on the 15th or 16th??

Posting to stop the crankiness!!

Feeling a bit tipsy from the cocktails I devoured after work to celebrate 12.12.12 with the girls at work.

Torturing myself reading memoirs of children who have had a hard life wanting to adopt a child but hating Australia for their cr@ppy adoption process...

Not sure if it has been discussed in the swaying forum, but have also heard making your man have a hot shower before BDing increases chance of a girl!

I have been stalking but not much to add. Minnie, I had a barney with dh last night as well. Grrrrr....... I just get sick of talking but he always has a smart ass comment. S this time, I thought if I can't say anything without you being a smart ass then I am not going to talk at all. I was soooo annoyed as we haven't gone out together for tea for a while and this time we did I end up not talking to him. Got home and had a barney. Then we put decorations on the Xmas tree..... Well we started and then we end up bding, best sex I have had in a while original.gif I am trying to not make it mechanical like we have been doing as ttc makes it such a mechanical process, but last night was nice original.gif

I have been having the worse headaches sad.gif I can't take anything for it while on clomid either sad.gif not inch else to report, I have been having ewcm. I am trying not to do opk's this month and just go with the flow......... Lets see if I can last more than a day hahahahaha

Yay! People joining in on my Don't Go Mental Marathon! biggrin.gif Those who want to skip the exercise can just sit there and tell us how great we all look in our gym clothes and snark about the trashy stuff on TV wink.gif

Nah, the main reason I'm doing it is to be in a really good eating/exercise habit when I get that BFP. Last pregnancy I was physically miserable and I'm doing whatever I can to avoid that again.

Minnime: I LOVE NEOPETS! Or I did in 2002 biggrin.gif I stopped playing back then but I was soooo addicted. I even ran a guild lol.

Mags: Woot! Work it! Haven is reeeeally good, too. We're on Season 3 and are going to pout heavily when we run out.

Everyone else seems a little more chipper than before. I'm happy to see it! If this cycle doesn't work, I'm have a big fat Mint Julep (or three) before facing the next cycle.

I think we're all a bit crazy in here!! I haven't gone as far as a short list, but have thought of names in my head a bit. Guessing I'll get worse as time goes on!

Good luck for your poas tomorrow!! We need some more BFPs in here!

My girls name is set, have had it since i was pregnant with DS2. Boys name is one of 2 as i like solid masculine names and it needs to go with my boys so far and they are Seth and Nate but my pick of the 2 is Nate.

*~Luvmy2~* we have names pick out for a boy and a girl if we need more we will figure it out

No George, but no real line either. Once again, I think I can see the hint of a shadow of a line (maybe I'm imagining it, it's not photographable, must be shy), but I would think on the 2nd day of a missed George I'd have a nice big fat line to look at, if it was gunna be there at all sad.gif

If George does show, I will be giving up on this, not trying for another month, it's all I think about!
