Let's make some May babies

and hi buggerlugs, great name :o

gah, got the week wrong, it's next week I should be ovulating :o so Dh will get a bit of a breather this week!

notnow - you need to change your name to 'notnowImshagging(with intent)' :o

sorry, I always end up lowering the tone, don't I?!

Hi notnow, so sorry to hear about your mc.

three currants Woo hoo Shagging a go-go!! Maybe I'm having a weird early ov after my coil removal then? Who knows. Will jump dp later just to be sure!! ;)

Oh, and notnow I think everyone likes a bit of a drink now and again, we can't be angels all the time! :)

Welcome Notnow, sorry to hear of your mc.

Got and on, bloody predictive text!

Lol can't help examining mucus either. On a positive note I've hot a smile of my ovulation test this am so looks like ill be jumping dh before he leaves for work tonight :)

Can I join? We've been ttc for just over a year, one early mc a couple of months ago. My AF is due on Weds and I definitely think it's on it's way despite the sterling work put into the shagging this month. Probably a good thing as have been hitting the wine pretty hard in an end of term frenzy - usually I'm not such an alkie but as someone said earlier, laying off the sauce for months and months and frickin' months is not the easiest thing in the world. Must try harder!

:o @ mskate being a man If I hadn't already had a baby, I'd be having exactly the same thoughts :o I'm currently convincing myself that I'll turn out to be infertile and DS will be an only child.

pretty sure I should be ovulating this week (if my cycles are even half way to being regular ) so lots of early nights for DH and I :o although we're having early nights anyway due to HorrorChild waking at 4 every morning and refusing to go back down.

Fx Kat.
Festie swi= shagging with intent. Sounds like a plan, the stretchy stuff must be obeyed .
Lou must be difficult when you been on the pill for a while to know what nomal for you.
Looks like af comng to an end today, so back in action tomorrow hopefully

Hi all, welcome orange!

Well, despite the fact I'm being 'laid back' about it all, and not charting etc, I can't help having a sneaky look at me fanny batter every day. And today I'm on day 11, and have sretchy vag stuff, despite the fact, in the past, that I have usually ovulated around day 18!!

So, who knows?! Plenty of SWI I guess whatever it means!!

Ooh, Kat; are you symptom spotting?! Fingers crossed for you! :)

Loulou, I sympathise, it's really hard not to analyse every little thing, isn't it? I only had my mirena out last month, so not sure what my cycle's doing either!

Early days yet, only 11dpo, but it looks as if I might be having an April baby after all if this one is successful :)

Good luck to you all!

Hi can I join? Just got chucked off April bus on friday, feeling a bit crap at mo about it all but sure I will be fine again in a couple of days.

Also threecurrants I am exactly the same, meant to be letting nature take its course but actually getting in a tizz about pink lines, blue lines, little flowers and the rest. Convinced after years of militant (I'm avoiding the term anal) contraception, I will turn out of have infertility probs, premature menopause or actually be a man.

Oh dear, now I am worried to have given the impression of being a gin-soaked lush... And I'm not, hardly at all... Promise! I normally don't drink much but I've avoided any for the last few months and am trying to eat well, guzzle my Boots Conception Support tablets and generally live an entirely virtuous and angelic life... But if I do come on the same day I go on holiday... Well I think I may as well look on the bright side and start slicing lemons.

Nope, that still makes me sound like a lush, doesn't it.

lots of typos...crap at typing quickly

I also try not to get het up with all the cycle nonsense, but then cant help myself ive now started on the ovualtion test...i know already!! Everyday i dont get a smilely face i panci that something is wrong and im not ovulateing as the pill is still in my system or because i only stopped bf 3mth ago!!

I was suppose to be going with the flow and when it happens it happens lol!

Dh starts nights on monday and leaves the house at 930pm so i thinking swi tonight, sunday and monday before he goes to work...making me feel tired thinking about it. Who said romance is dead

I get far too het up about cycles and such nonsense Kveta - supposed not to be this time but..... we'll see!! Surely, as long as you SWI plenty in the middle week, you've covered your bases, as it were! That's going to be my approach this time anyway!!

Quenelle - green light to crudeness; fab! So, flaps, baps, bum, wee, knob.
I know, I know, puerile as f**k!!!!

May the force be with you all in your SWI endeavours this weekend ladies!! :o

I'm not a big drinker anyway - plus am still feeding DS, so don't want to get pished! I'm not changing my habits at all really, except much more SWI :o

I have no idea about how to monitor my cycle - I just know it's about 39/40 days between periods (I hate calling it AF as my name can be shortened to Flo, and I'm an auntie ). and sometimes I get sore nipples during feeds mid-cycle, which can be attributed to ovulation. but I'm not really monitoring days I'm ovulating - just SWI much much more. Will start working out what CM etc means if I'm not pg by the end of the year :o

I don't get the chance to drink much these days anyway. Usually just a glass of wine a night over the weekend. I would find it very hard to give up tea though, DS is a rubbish sleeper and I'm always tired, I need tea to get me through a day at work.

Let's have no more apologising for TMI or crudeness - that's what this thread is for! Who else can we describe our EWCM to if not each other? And my RL friends who know him would not want to hear the ins and outs (ahem) of my sex life with DH

Have fun temping, testing and SWIing this weekend everyone.

Thanks ladies. Hoping it was just a dodgy temp. Now I think about it, the CM is not right for me to have ov yet (sorry if TMI), not sure what is going on. Kat I haven't ever had much luck with OPKs - tried them the month I got pg with DD2, never got a positive reading! Was going to try them anyway from today, but haven't done it yet - will try in a minute. Have also ordered a saliva microscope, as it sounds fun, but have read that it can show ferning all the time after a mc, depending on how much of the hormones are left over. It hasn't arrived yet, but I will enjoy examining my spit immensely! loulou is right - nothing to lose in a bit of SWI, so will resume original plan and hope!

threecurrantbuns can you employ the electronic babysitter and sneak off with DH???? Hope you get chance to DTD!!

loulou I don't drink anyway, but am laying off anything I can right now, except cake. Currently very snotty as have stopped my nasal spray and antihistamines, and have gone onto decaf tea and coffee. I am ultra paranoid because of the mc, but I think most things in moderation is probably OK. As I said, I am very very paranoid. I hope your cycle sorts itself out soon - it's years since I came off the pill, after taking it for probably 8 years or so, and I do remember that AF was much lighter and a day or so shorter afterwards (still is).

mskate, good acronym! Glad I'm not the only one wanting to get pg NOW.

Hope we all have a good weekend - let the SWI commence!!!!
