@Lawrence: That is definitely positive, wow!
@Sam: So sorry AF showed... I thought for sure you were getting positives
For ladies ovulating or waiting to
For those in the TWW,
For those who AF showed up for I'm so sorry to hear.... best wishes for next cycle, though!
I'm still waiting for AF to go away... Really stinks, I feel like I'm the only one who is stuck with her for the full 7 days. It's really annoying.
On another note, to help keep me cheered up and from going absolutely obsessive with TTC, my husband let me adopt 2 bunnies from our humane society they are amazing, I love them so much! They are father and son, both are neutered, and I've been wanting a pet for a while. I've never been without a pet this long before. I don't have time for a puppy, my husband doesn't like cats (although I love them), and birds can be loud and bite my toddlers. I've lived with bunnies before when my stepmom owned them, so I do know how to properly care for one and did more research before adopting. They both use their litter box about 95% of the time, so it is so easy to clean up after them. It's really helping to distract me!

Update from me. Internal US shows no cysts . She said it was probably the left over follicle from last month but what ever it was it's gone now. She can tell I have ovulated from the left ovary this month. She said she can see some small fibroids top of my womb but nothing to worry about. She wants me to have a spectrum of blood tests plus an hsg tube dye test to check I still have open tubes. We have to pay for all of this privately which is a lot of money She also wants hubby to do a sperm test. I'd say we are talking about £1k before anything. Going to see my gp this week to see what tests I can get done on the NHS. Hubby thinks that we shouldn't waste the money and are blessed to have our daughter. She said that at my age it will be difficult to fall pregnant and 50% result in miscarriage. She suggests ovary stimulation I'm guessing something like Clomid and timed BDing. Going to think about all of this as don't want to try until May after this cycle so will pointless paying to do everything now. xx

@sam - Oh no, sorry af showed.
@crystal - Yay, bunnies! I absolutely adore bunnies! I got my first when I was twelve and actually bred them for a few years, when I lived at home. Have been without one for a few years now and this year we are finally getting two, one for my soon 6 year old son and one for me.
AFM: CD 6 at the moment and af disappeared a day sooner than I expected. I usually bleed for 4 days and then 2 days of spotting, but sometimes I only bleed for 3 days with 1-2 days of spotting. This time it was a 3 day period. Hopefully I don't ovulate later than cd 16, 'cause my husband will be away for work after that. So fingers crossed.

@Lawrence omg I just saw my due date jumped to December 1 lol never noticed????
@pandorica good luck babe I hope you ovulate soon + I totally agree with you about periods... I'm usually 4 days with day 5 just being a spot or two... This time I started spotting with light flow cd1, had light to medium bleeding cd2 and cd3 and nothing but a spot on cd4

@scuba glad to hear the cyst is gone but sorry you weren't able to get more good news from the doctor
@Sam I'm so sorry to hear AF showed up. Those tests really looked positive. Was AF late? Do you think it may have been a chemical?
@Crystal You're not alone with a full 7 day period (although I got lucky this month, it was only 6...)
I had my yearly OBGYN appointment today and talked about the fact that we've been TTC for 7 months with no success and since I am over 35, they gave me a referral for a fertility specialist (apparently they automatically do that after 12 months of TTC for women under 35 and only 6 months if over 35). So if this cycle isn't successful, I'll be making an appointment to see what they have to say.

@agatch I hope you get bfp soon. I'm sure the fertility doctor can help and shine some light. But I'm still going to hope this cycle you'll get bfp
@anna good luck for a December baby
@everyone I truly hope everyone will start seeing their bfp
Update on me I think I might be pregnant... I got a very light positive but I can very much see it no squinting. It still very light so I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much.
