Ugh Divvy, sounds like cystitis. Drink loads of cranberry juice and water. You might want to go to doc for a prescription, but you can get OTC meds for cystitis, just pop down to the pharmacy.

To avoid getting it in the future, always pee before and after sex. Never ever bd on a full bladder, that's a sure recipe for a bladder infection. I hate bladder infections and yeast infections...how come men never get things like that!

(((HUGS)))) hon and hope you feel better soon.

Welcome to 2ww part II: BD harder (or something) Nicki []

Divvy, are you feeling like you need to wee all the time, but when you do, nothing happens? I've had cystitis/urethritis loads and it's really grim, but def for me it's characterised by a sort of nervy cramping pain in my abdomen + a slight burning when I wee that is eased when I actually have something to wee out(!). When I get signs, I literally sit on the loo and drink several pints of water, then take paracetamol and keep drinking and weeing until it's gone.

You can buy stuff over the counter for it - lemon barley water or cranberry juice (not juice drink) work too. But if its that bad, you'll need antibiotics. Good luck hun, hope you can sort it xx

Thanks twinnie Dips [], I've got some Benylin in the cupboard, which is 100mg of goofy whatsit + levomenthol (which I imagine isn't that 'active' an ingredient?!) - so ahh f*ck it it won't hurt, even if if it doesn't producing a raging river!!

My Clearblue opks arrived this morning. They say things like 'conceiving your baby' in the instructions, which I find strangely exciting!! Haven't got a flippin clue how to use them yet, or more's the point when to start - I think I know when I ov pretty much - just need a 'thing' each month - but now I don't want to WASTE any of them. Honestly, I still had a chocolate Santa in my fridge in April...what's the likelihood of me cracking open an opk unless the planets are aligned, there's an R in the month, England win 3-0 [][]

V excited about the footie, going to watch it at our friends' house on their new hdtv - woohoo + beer & snacks provided.

Come on the INGER-land!!!

Congrats Dani! Cool!

Dats, hun, thanks for taking over the charts...i'm 3DPO now, so can you change me please?

If we're reintroducing ourselves:
Me 30, DH 31, married 10 months.
DD 5 (unplanned!)
TTC 7 months...i'm going for blood in a few days to check my progesterone, since my luteal phase is frequently 9 days.

Love,
Beanz

hi i'm Eve 21 mummy to kyle who is 20 months and ive been ttc since august 8th (started trying on my 21st)
so coming close to a year now i have two angels playing up in the sky.
got my positive ovulation on sunday 4th and been finding signs in everything since

Well, I've just drunk nearly a bottle of red wine. I figure this month's a bust anyway, so since it's such an amazing evening, I sat out in the field (not on my own, I hasten to add!) watching the sunset, sipping the red stuff - fantastic. Now feeling very merry, but great!

Boobs still very sore and am having to wear my 'big t*ts bra', but that's pretty normal most months for me at this time. I'm finding my symptom spotting is becoming a bit obsessive - I could swear I've been waking up feeling nauseous for the last two mornings. Note to self: chill out... !! LOL

Anyway, for the new thread, an intro to myself:

Me, 38 (last April)
DP, 51 (last Monday!), but mental age of 7
DS, 7 (8 in two weeks)
TTC on and off for 4 years, in earnest for the last 13 months. Five miscarriages, last one August 2005
I have severe endometriosis, a high FSH and thyroid issues. Other than that, everything's fine, LOL [][][]
