2 days early, what a ........
BITCH.
Yes AF arrived 2 days early this time. I half expected her to come as this was the first month of ttc again and I knew I couldn't rely on my cycle being the same as it was before my MC but still I'm gutted
She came late last night and i simply broke down. Hubby was a star and it gave us a chance to really talk. He didn't know how much ttc meant to me but now he does and he feels the same. In fact he said not a day went by that he didn't think of our little Smartie that we lost in May.
I'm going to try and stay positive. i have bought some OV strips of the internet so will be prepared this month so let the rollercoaster beigin again;\)

Glad to hear your keeping positive and OH and you have been able to talk about it. I hope the OV strips work for you. I've still got fingers crossed for my BFP this month but to be truthful I don't think we've BD'd enough. I think I might try temping next month if Af shows her face......this month I have only used CM as a guide and a rough guess at dates as like you I'm not totally sure my cycles are back to normal.
Anyway hun keep your chin up...onwards and upwards xx
What is temping??? I'v seen you mention it before and was curious

There are some online charts you can use to chart the temperatures, i know a few people use fertility friend.com
I just think this might be easier than peeing on a stick everyday! and less costly...you just need a themometer that is pretty accurate and its only a half degree ish rise in temp I think
Hope this helps

It seems easy enough to do I might give it a go. I agree it would be less hassle then weeing on a stick but will be doing that as well.
Hopefully the hubster wont be on nights this time around as the 0400 BDing didn't seem to work!
I temp and its great as you can really see when you have ovulated. I have a digital farenheit thermometer that I brought from amazon and its on my bedside table. I take my temp before I get out of bed every morning. I find that my temp dips a little prior to ovulation and then raises dramatically afterwards. If your temp stays high it can indicate you are going to get a BFP. I use www.fertilityfriend.com to chart my temps. Its great as you can add other details too like your cm when you bd and any opks or cbfm readings. Although I still pee on a stick in the week leading up to ov as temp really only shows when you have ovulated! Hope that helps
