So tough honey, but really hope that Thursday brings you some answers. Will be thinking of you :hugs: xxx

Oh honey firstly huge :hugs: This ttc journey is so emotional for everyone involved and I think sometimes we forget it affects the boys too? It's difficult if he refuses to get tests done, but maybe if he did it and they came back ok, it would lift such a weight from his shoulders? It might...

Ok its CD 20 and I'm still getting High's despite me having ovulated at the weekend - when will the bloomin thing stop asking for sticks??? I don't want to run into my next set of 10 - its too expensive when it doesn't work!!xx

Unfortunately its the progesterone that gives the symptoms of both pregnancy and AF - so symptom spotting is usually pointless! Fingers crossed for you though!.xx

Its Conceive Plus - its a sperm friendly lubricant that mimics EWCM.xx

You could always get some conceive plus or pre-seed too if your worried, but I'm sure its fine - like the other ladies have said if you went digging for it I'm sure it would be there!! Although I quite like having some sperm friendly lube handy, as can be used externally as well as internally...

Meee I'm waiting too! I ovulated at the weekend, (CD17) not really done anything different this month, although we have been a bit more chilled about the whole thing than in some previous months. We BD'd CD9,11,13,14,16,17 & 18 and used C+ on CD16,17 & 18. Might throw one in tonight for good...

My consultant said I could try royal jelly (when I asked) but he didnt sound too convinced by it. He prescribed me DHEA for improving egg quality and 75mg aspirin as the DHEA can make you more prone to clotting. He recommended 1000mg per day of the RJ if i wanted to take this too (which I will...

I've already said it (well shouted it :blush: ) in your journal but yay sweet! Brilliant news! So thrilled, excited and happy for you! Congratulations!!!!xxxx

Still high for me, despite my +ve opk yesterday. The only time it's picked up my surge was in March - the first cycle after my pregnancy. I wonder if you're right Emma and the monitor isn't sensitive enough for me? Will give it one more go, but then abandon ship if I don't get a peak on it.xx

So Monitor still not giving me a peak, but here are my opk's - all four from bottom are from today - definite surge! If I don't get a peak next month I might sell the damn thing - internet cheapies seem to be more reliable for me and a lot less expensive!

I can sympathise, I work at a large teaching hospital in London, and EVERYONE I see has a baby or a bump!!!!xx

Hey Hun, I have fairly regular 29-31 day cycles and ov has been anything from cd12 to cd 19, so I wouldn't worry. As Fliss says the fact that you were pg means you are ovulating. I'm cd 16 today and no surge yet, Fx'd we will get our surge this weekend :) xxx

Sorry to hear this hon.xx

Darling you feel like you do because you are grieving. If you had lost a parent, a partner or a friend, people would understand, but losing a pregnancy is different and some people expect you to bounce back, but don't expect it of yourself - it's been a huge loss for you honey and it's ok to...
