Oh and I stroked the fertility statue pics religiously!!!

We dtd 4 times this month and I had grapefruit juice and used conceive plus the last 2 times near OV as I was totally dry.

I drank grapefruit juice after dtd straightaway - had a glass by the bedside. I don't know why but I had a theory that if I drink it after dtd it will make me more wet so the spermies can swim up to the egg.

Also it's been 3 months since DH has been on pine bark extract which may have helped with the morphology.

Also, I had a lot of work stress (close to a serious mental breakdown) so I thought it would be impossible to conceive this month. Clearly the stress theory is false!

Yep, definitely, even if you did a handstand for an hour after each dtd we will all be attempting it. Grin

RedRobin1 · 05/05/2013 17:17

Thanks kerry

winkle DH was mowing the lawn and I walked into the garden pee sticks in hand and blubbing and told DH we are going to be having a baby. We hugged for ages and then DH resumed lawn mowing with a grin on his face.

We haven't yet done a happy dance as I just don't want to get too excited yet.

twinklestar2 · 05/05/2013 16:49

Oh and Red, you obviously have to tell us everything you did this month so we can do it too!

twinklestar2 · 05/05/2013 16:48

Congratulations red!! So happy for you. :-)

FWIW, I got utterly trashed the day before my BFP as well!

Let us know when it stops feeling surreal!

RedRobin1 · 05/05/2013 15:57

winkle I am never leaving you...you WILL be next!!!!!

Thanks kitty needed to read that. I am going to enjoy the moment and allow myself to get a little carried away. Just a little.

kittykatsforever · 05/05/2013 15:42

Come on we want to see these sticks like last time Grin
Winkle definatly your turn now

twinklestar2 · 05/05/2013 15:39

OMG red, brilliant news! So pleased for you! Hopefully I'm right behind you x

kittykatsforever · 05/05/2013 15:16

Like I said each pregnancy has different symptoms I honistly wouldn't have known ( and didn't ) first time because I took implantation for af never felt a days sickness or anything, it's not indicative of how things will turn out at all, If you went back through this thread to when I got pregnant with this one you will find my posts about how I knew it wasn't my month etc as no symptoms and even cm hadn't been the same as the time before etch know its hard to not worry especially after last time but just let yourself have a silly grin today and savour it, I always think implantation is a really positive sign ( I guess as it was for me) that its imbedded itself well to have caused it , plenty of time for you to be knacked, sick and achey Wink xxx

RedRobin1 · 05/05/2013 15:08

Thanks :) I can't stop smiling either. Just wish some symptoms would kick in so I can stop worrying if it will end up as a cp again.

Hope you are keeping well wee

Thingymajigs · 05/05/2013 14:33

I've got this silly grin now thinking how you must be feeling. Ds2 just asked me what I'm smiling about. Grin Aww I'm so happy for you both. Smile x

weechops · 05/05/2013 14:31

De-lurking to say aaahhhhh red!! Amazing news I'm so so happy for you!! :)

Thingymajigs · 05/05/2013 14:28

omg! Congratulations! I was so hopeful for you when the spotting stopped. You must be so happy. Smile
Don't worry about the wine it can't do anything at this stage. Such great news, it gives me a bit of hope.

RedRobin1 · 05/05/2013 14:09

Thanks kitty I am just in a state of shock. Implantation does exist....but early pregnancy symptoms don't.

I feel no different than every cycle.

kittykatsforever · 05/05/2013 14:03

I knew it oh red so so happy for you GrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrin
Never mind the wine you don't even want to know how much I drank with dd1
See implantation does exist lol Wink

RedRobin1 · 05/05/2013 12:15

I don't think the wine was a good idea last night.

I just took a test and two pink lines came up.
