I rang and cancelled every appointment, threw the thermometer in the bin, put the CBFM in the bottom drawer (too expensive to throw away!), deleted the spreadsheet with all my cycle's on, went out and bought a huge bottle of vodka and lots of tonic, drank it all in one month, slept with my husband for pleasure, and fell pregnant!

Speaks volumes, huh?

Good on ya lyn

And i think alot of us on here totally know where your coming from! When i first started i never knew how long hard and stressfull it would be trying to get pregnant i mean when you were younger everyone use to say wear a condom or youll get pregnant but its not like that at all!
Chin up hun.. we know its hard

I'm not temping or using pre-seed. But for me it's different. Because I know I'm not ovulating, it's always stressful. And then there's the Clomid issue, I have to watch out for signs of O.

And my Dh makes things worse for me. I was sure I wouldn't let TTC rule my bedroom but thanks to him, it does.

I wish... that's all I'll say, I'm sure you ladies can finish it. I wish...

Your baby is sooooooooooooooooooooooo cute!

I totally agree with you on sleeping w/ Dh for pleasure. I sincerely believe that's the best way. But it takes two to tango and my Dh isn't doing the tango right now.

I was starting to wonder this morning whether I really want to keep temping and OPKs, i think i will probably use the ones i have left next cycle and then stop, as for temps I am not sure, I am pretty confident that I know when i OV and i just find taking my temp in the 2ww too depressing because as it starts to drop i want to scream at the thermometer!!
