Well, its been a year :(
Hi girlies, its been a year for me so far. The oldies here would know me as Cass82, how is everyone? Any old faces? Its all changed on here! lol!
Little update on me. Tried lots so far, SMEP, temping and charting and even not trying! Been trying CBFM for the past 4 months, no luck yet! Considering going to the doctors, but that makes everything serious and real and I'm not quite ready for that yet!
Anyway, thought I might see if I can change my luck on here.
Babydust to you all xxx

We've been trying for seven and half months and it's just so hard. I find it hard being on third cycle of CBFM and no luck as yet as everyone seems to get success with it straight away. Have you been gettign peaks on it every cycle?
L x
Yes. have been getting highs and peaks every month, so am starting to get worried that there is something wrong - which is probably not helping! lol!
How about you hun? x
I got a peak the first cycle but then second cycle was too long but got positive OPK after and currently on CD 18 and still high, so frustrating!
I just want a BFP!!!!
My cycle lengths are about 26-29 days long and I ov in the middle so am getting very frustrated, but at least my body has finally got back to normal since coming off the pill.
Trying for my first and I think you might be right about the doctors, if AF shows her face this month then its the doctors for me, I hope CBFM works for you soon hun x
Anyway, it is really hard hunni, just takes up everything!
I think I will definitely go to the doctors if af shows, although my cycles are really regular - they took a while after I came off the pill.
I hope that the CBFM works for you soon though hun, its good at helping to work out your cycles. Babydust in bucket loads coming your way. xxx
Lots of babydust to you too. Hopefully you wont need docs cos you'll get BFP this month.
I've just seen you've joined CBFM thread so we can keep in touch there.
Hope it happens for you soon x
Anyway I felt more positive after I had that first test and if you think it has been long enough then book an appointment. Like kaycee said, it will happen so good luck, hugs and baby dust xx
I think although it does in some way feel 'more serious' to get doctors involved, it also in some ways (to me) feels very reassuring. I guess, if there is something wrong with us, I hope we can get on and fix it quickly.
I really hope you get your BFP soon, but if not, you never know, going to the doc's might actually relieve some of the pressure. Good luck!
We've not been ttc as long as you, on month 7. Started using cbfm last month too.
I went to the doctors at the beginning of last month too, because i have pretty irregular cycles (anything from 17 days to 48) and she said becasue of that if nothing in the new year to go back and she'll start testing me. Like LM, it made me feel so much better going, because i know i'll get the help i need when i decide to go back. I still have bad days (i try and stay away from here when they come calling) but i keep telling myself it will happen and all this waiting will have been worth it.
Good luck and babydust xxx.
Just wanted to say I completely understand how you all feel. We tried for 9 months before going for tests but had been having unprotected for a year. We had tried everything - smep, different positions, less bding, preseed, cbfm, opks etc etc and i just knew i should be pregnant by then. I felt so down and depressed about it all and felt that life was passing me by.
Anyway, I would say def get the ball rolling asap for investigations even though there may be nothing wrong. The bloods and sperm analysis are so easy to do. In my case my dh has low sperm count and motlity and morpholgy - he is physically fit and healthy so it was a shock for him. I am hoping that none of you have these problems but the wait to start ivf if you did do it can be bad in some areas so the sooner you find out if you do have a problem, the better. In my case, the doctor had told me originally to come back 4 months later to do a sa and dh wanted to as well, but i am so glad i was pushy to get the sa done sooner.
We were actually quite lucky and found out dh had problems in august, and have just started ivf/icsi injections 2 weeks ago. Fingers crossed!
Sorry if i have worried anyone. just would rather people got checked out if they have concerns rather than leave it. xxxxx
Just wanted to say keep your chin up, I know how frustrating it can be, we're on month 7 but only cycle 5 (my cycles range from 29-55 days and I have PCOS so don't know if I ovulate every month). You just have to have faith that your time will come - which I'm sure it will. I agree with the others, why not head to the drs and see what they say. Knowing that they are looking into things might help you to relax and you never know you may fall before they have finished their investigations. Good luck hun. XxX
We've been trying for over a year too and I know how discouraging it can be but please don't give up hope... There are days that I throw in the towel but my DH manages to convince me otherwise When I feel down I try for a little more romance and he doesn't seem to mind!!
Samsa - I'll be waiting to see a bfp annoucement in January!
Good luck to both you lovely ladies! May we all have a baby filled 2011..
xo
thank you for all your replies and sharing your stories, I'd forgotten how supportive everyone is on here. And its kinda bittersweet to see some familiar faces.
I think you guys are right, that tests are probably a good idea, even if its to say all is okay (fingers crossed).
Anyway, I've now got some much needed PMA and looking forward to christmas and ignoring the 2ww lol!
Fingers crossed that there are more bfp's over christmas cos we're all focusing on nice christmas stuff and trying not to fall over in the snow!!!!
Hugs and babydust xxx
So there is hope still.
Littlelynsuk, thank you, you've made me feel more positive, its got to happen some time xxx
