morning all :)

welcome Fl0b0t!

I am soooo tired! couldn't face dtd this morning, so will try again tonight :) it's still a bit too early anyway so doesn't matter too much.

I do have to admit to having a little panic this week - I just looked at a picture of a baby and just thought - can I cope with a baby? Will it ruin our relationship?
I'm feeling guilty now, as It was my idea to ttc anyway, but I cant be the only one thinking this while ttc, am I? Confused

Ok to join? I was on the first time frolicers thread but it died a death. Stopped Depo in Aug 2011. First period was 3 weeks ago, so been ttc in earnest! :)

Late twenties, been married 3 yrs!

Thanks, will add that to my ttc aids :)

HannahJayne · 11/11/2012 17:14

www.conceiveplus.com - it's a lubricant that helps the sperm to swim.

petal86 · 11/11/2012 14:34

Thanks - what's concieve plus?

HannahJayne · 11/11/2012 13:41

No idea about temps but I used the CB digital OPKs last cycle, only DTD once that cycle, on a smiley day and fell pg.

When I can try again I'll be trying conceive plus too - a few people seem to have had success with that too.

petal86 · 11/11/2012 12:29

Am using opks and charting temp this cycle, any advice?

And thanks Blockette - same here :)

Blockette · 11/11/2012 12:24

Hi flys, petal, and lovebam fx you don't stay long.

Nothing to add from me, still got another week before we can start again for our Christmas present! :)

Do we have anyone due for testing?

HannahJayne · 11/11/2012 09:35

And hello to flys, petal and lovesBAM. Fx this cycle will be the one for you.

HannahJayne · 11/11/2012 09:34

Dulcet I'm thinking Christmas baking like a crazy person. If I make the cake soon and feed it regularly it will be near toxic by then. Ooh, and gingerbread, and Christmas cupcakes, and Nigella's Christmas rocky road. Off to find the Nigella Christmas book for inspiration...

FlysInDreams · 10/11/2012 19:22

Me too....we are on cycle 8 of ttc #1, and at 38 (39 in Jan) that clock is ticking loudly in my ear Sad

petal86 · 10/11/2012 12:13

Same here....

My DH and I are about to start cycle 2 of ttc our 1st....

Hoping this one will be slightly less emotionally draining than the first, but I'm not holding out much hope!?

LoveBeingAMrs · 10/11/2012 11:36

Hi! Can i join thread? Me and DH started ttc #1 last month.. Just got my first AF since trying :-/ x

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 10/11/2012 08:33

Morning!! AF arrived & I ended up having another light period.

So here we go again!! Smile

MrsBri · 09/11/2012 07:23

I'm not sure I'm getting my voucher, Dulcet, as they told me to stop sending wee because of the honeymoon, and it was the very early pregnancy wee they're interested in :-( Bit gutted, though I suppose I got the sticks.

Fx when you start TTC again you'll get lucky ASAP :-)

peardrop2 · 08/11/2012 20:19

Dulcet they're full of luck :-)

DulcetMoans · 08/11/2012 19:45

Oh, also, just got my CB trial 'reward' sticks for finishing the trial. Would rather have had a +ve test result! And the high street vouchers of course. Wink

DulcetMoans · 08/11/2012 19:44

Oh! That's so kind of you pear, I would love them. Hopefully they are lucky like they were for you! When I get on computer I will PM you.

How about making something for someone for Christmas hannah? Knitting or cross stitch or something crafty. That can get you through two months then!

peardrop2 · 08/11/2012 15:55

Dulcet pregnancy tests! Would you like them or would you rather not?

HannahJayne · 08/11/2012 15:26

Yay for milestones pear. How exciting!

I'm loving the Christmas presents too. It's getting bloody cold - you're better off inside (in bed) anyway Wink

I need a new hobby for a while given that I've been told not to TTC for two months. I'm interpreting this as one cycle for my own sanity so for once I'm wishing the days away until AF turns up! Thank you for all your lovely messages.

DulcetMoans · 08/11/2012 14:25

I'm here! I'm sat at a hospital (nothing awful!) annoyed that I'm not here for something more special like a scan! What sticks is it pear? Ov sticks? I have to wait another couple cycles yet! It's taking even longer than actually TTC!

peardrop2 · 08/11/2012 12:25

Yay for early Christmas presents Grin love that idea!!

Right, Dulcet are you around? It's time!! Do you want to PM your address so I can get the sticks in the post to you? Don't worry if you don't want them...I won't be offended :-)

MrsBri · 08/11/2012 07:14

That's a bugger for you both...definitely fx for good Christmas news :-)

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 08/11/2012 07:08

Thanku blockette!! Thanks That made me smile!! Fx for a sticky early Christmas presents!!! Lol!! Smile

Blockette · 07/11/2012 18:20

ahh that's horrible, hope AF comes quickly now for you raspberry! It's our turn next month, we can have early Christmas presents from our OH's :)
