Hi again;
I am in Boston now ; the day I am supposed to be ovulating; I have booked off 3 days each month in annual leave for the coming 5 months so as I'm in the country when it matters. Left yesterday but will be home tomorrow so we had a go at like 4am yesterday morning before we went to our respective jobs.
My intention was not to do this of course but I had only landed from New York the previous morning and was so knackered I was in bed for 9pm; and fell asleep as he was chatting; couldn't have even thought about sex with the cloud of having to get up and go to Boston in the morning looming over me. However; it was that or waiting another month for a "shot" so it must have woken me up in the middle of the night; "the fear" of losing out and going through the now all too familiar dissapointment.
So I woke him up ; we didn't even speak; before; during or after. ;) it was just the unspoken; I'm awake; I've woken you up; its obvious by how I woke you up I want sex and so we did; It was pretty good too!! Exhausted afterward just lay there till we both fell back asleep. Needless to say he got up in the morning all chirpy and I got my breakfast all ready for me when I came down the stairs.
Anyhoooo that was beginning of day 14. I usually ovulate day 15 OR 16 so.. I will do the test ( ovulation test) when I land on Sunday ( day 16) and if its not too late I will go for it again. I will be so shattered and SO not in the mood but I have to.... sighs.
I really thought I would have been pregnant by the Summer; well; if I'm honest I really thought by March April last year! But then I put it back to Summer; now my milestone is Christmas. I'm sure you all know where I'm coming from with this one. I do not want to be here in January saying my new milestone is Easter....
Keep everything crossed for me. ( except your legs. ;) of course)
I made the silly mistake; as I always do of telling the girl I'm working alongside that I'm trying. She keeps saying ; "don't lift that; or oooh you are eating for two now " and all this crap. I'm so over getting excited about the thoughts that I might be due to so many previous dissapointments 14months and counting. She got pregnant at aged 39; she thought it was never going to happen for her and wasn't trying at the time and said she was drunk; it was a Christmas concieved baby.
Trying not to get my hopes up; but I am a positive person by and large and I do always get excited towards the end of the month... so will keep you posted

Pregnancy from day one ( conception-to birth)
Well as for I'm sure many of you ; I am back to square one.
I got the results of my test just before my holiday and everything Was normal; so I am as the doctor said Well within the normal range with the hormones; I'm still ovulating and all that; so it made me so much more excited to be going on holidays with the hopes that whilst out there I'd get the good news ; I packed a test and everything. So imagine the dissapointment when I came on ; bang on time as well on day 30. Fell out with my partner as well because he was so moody; maybe just stressed but he was very stressed and snapping at waiters and all sorts; maybe its affecting him too. Needless to say we made up but for about 2 days I was about to put a pillow over him when he was asleep.
I was gutted; as ; as usual I'd convinced myself " its definately this month"
I did however , as I always do is pick myself up; because I do have the good news that there's nothing wrong with either of us. But.. 14months off the pill now and its dragging.
Any one out there who is still trying; you should definately go for the blood tests as it does give you more hope.
I have now also bought this book about boosting fertility; its pretty good actually saying how your diet will actually improve the quality of your eggs etc... loads of great tips; but we already eat all the oily fish; veggies etc.... So really we do everything SO right.
I have booked loads of time off work; esp at ovulation times for the next 5months so theres no excuse for timing to be out.
Would love to hear from people going through this stage.

Pregnancy from day one ( conception-to birth)
Well today is day 27 of my cycle; its getting very close to crunch time; I will be calling the docs to see if I get any results of my blood test tomorrow; to see if I am in fact barren and then this will be a very different blog indeed.
No more symptoms as such; I still have tender boobs but its normal for me at this time of the month.. they've been funny all month this month. Even before I was ovulating; but nothing really out of the ordinary; the only thing I found is Im not enjoying red wine as much last few weeks but that could be a fluke.
Will know soon
Excited!!!!!!
