CD1

So here I am starting my very own TTC journal on CD1 as promised!

Bitchy got me this morning after keeping me guessing for a couple of days - woke up early with the familiar cramps and knew the game was over yet again. To make matters worse, today is my first day back at work after a week and half break and I've got loads of tedious things to do and I just can't be bothered. (I am my own boss so no one's going to tell me off but it doesn't pay to be unproductive!) Feeling bloated, gassy (tmi), narked off and generally crap. I never get any really bad AF symptoms, apart from the usual wanting to slit my own wrists

I ordered a new BBT thermometer and a bumper bag of tests off Ebay last week and am just hoping they arrive in time - the post to Bulgaria usually takes ages. Till then I will struggle on with my normal fever thermometer!

Trying to think of other things I can do differently this month. Not tempted by preseed (yet ) - anyone got any bright ideas?

Plan so far is:
BBT
OPK
CP & CM
FF
Grapefruit juice
Folic
Not stepping on the cracks in the pavement (not easy, as there are more cracks than slabs round here!)

Yay!! You've finally made a journal!!



Sorry that AF had to show her ugly face though!
Wow, it sounds like you are well sorted! Omg, I can't think of anything that you're not planning on doing!!!

Sounds like a brilliant plan hon and welcome to your own diary. I love your style and can relate to what it's like being an expat in a less developed country that doesn't carry any TTC articles *wink wink nudge nudge*!

I'm sure this will be a short diary. Here's some of the traditional

TT's

ha ha ha...good luck magic!

Thanks!!! What do you mean about Sweden - god, I thought Sweden was probably one of the most developed countries in the nudge nudge wink wink department - aren't the Swedes supposed to be rather, ahem, kinky? (Hope I'm not offending anyone!!!) Bulgaria is just plain backward when it comes to health care in general. Honestly, the doctors smoke in their surgeries! When I had my little girl by C section (with a general anaesthetic cos no epidurals here!!!) they wouldn't let me breastfeed for 48 hours! Still, it wasn't so bad and hopefully I will have a no2 and even a no3 here too!

How long have you been in Sweden and whatcha up to there?

Ha ha, of course, the most important thing - move it to the top of the list!!

Hi Magic, nice to see you've started your journal, fingers crossed for a soon!

Well I'm a Love Immigrant, isn't everyone else? I would LOVE a general anesthetic for the C-section! In fact I may have to take a trip to Bulgaria to get it as Sweden doesn't seem to actually do elective C-sections. Advanced? In what sense? I take it you don't know about the monopolies, the close mindedness and the horrendous socialist medical care I'd gladly pay for various products or care but there's no way to do that either. It's gloriously free and useless

Sounds a bit like the UK, eeeek, so scared about not having Swiss hospitals anymore... I'll never forget a GP in the UK looking at me all confused and asking "endometriosis? what's that?", I knew then our relationship would have to end...
