Welcome lacernella!

Cd26 here... Feeling a few twinges...

Hi all, hopped over from the old thread. congrats Alex- fab news!hope everything goes well.x
Fingers crossed for everyone else.
Try grapefruit juice with tonic-my uncle used to have it as a drink when he was out &was driving. I have it too sometimes as its a change from coke, orange juice etc had it last night when out for dinner and have just seen all the posts about it so that was a good choice on my part!xx

Wow, if any of you have issues with not producing enough EWCM just drink grapefruit juice. Seriously, I'm only on CD9 and I have loads... an embarrassing amount. Thanks for the suggestion red. I'm starting to think that maybe my hormones have started to work properly. Smile
Snap weechops. I'm putting mine down to the grapefruit juice but it could be the soy (which I'm also blaming for digestion issues Blush).
Go for it wee! Catch that egg. We are trying every other day all throughout the cycle and every day when I see a positive OPK.
Hi lacernella. Welcome to the thread. I'm also trying for dc3 with my DP and I have two older children (13 and 9) with my ex-H. What kind of tests are you both going through atm?

Hi I'm a newbie to this board, is it ok if I join in? I want a 2013 BFP so seems like the place to suit me...I'm just starting on the process of TTC DC3 with my now DH. DCs1 &2 from ex-P. It's an uncertain road, there's a gpod chance we won't ever get a BFP - DH currently doesn't produce sperm, and has recently started on hormone therapy to see if we can get some! I've just started being put through the battery of fertility checks, and hoping for some boxes ticked at least from my quarter. Can't talk about it to anyone in RL so would be good to have some MN hands to hold!

weechops · 18/03/2013 14:28

Just seduced dh while Ds is napping. Role reversal for a change as I never usually get the chance before he does it first :) heehee winkled and tinkled and hoping to do it every day til he leaves on Thursday night.

And I think the epo might be helping the ewcm. I've noticed some the last 2 days and I'm on cd11 today.

KerryJewels · 17/03/2013 22:42

Congratulations Alex!!!!!The new thread was your good luck:) Cheers for Algae,grapefruit juice and Brazilian nuts!!!This news has really made my St Patricks Day...Hooray!!!!

Thanks all of you! Am feeling a bit funny in the sense that I'm trying to hold myself back from getting too excited as it's such early days - but at the same time, I'm just thrilled that I managed to ovulate and get a BFP after so long of being upset with my body for not working. I am just keep long everything crossed it sticks. It would be my first winkle. Am going to test again in the morning.

someday I tested at 6dpo and it was negative so don't give up hope! I really hope you all get there soon. I've been hanging around mumsnet for ages and can't believe it's me saying I've got a BFP. It WILL be all of you too x

SomeDaySoon74 · 17/03/2013 19:00

Found you all!
Fab news Alex! Grin
For some insane reason I decided to do a test mid-afternoon today (was just feeling preggo although I'm only about 5dpo!!) and of course it was BFN but was quite fun to POAS for a giggle. Not quite sure what I was thinking but have been symptom spotting for past few days, particularly a pokey feeling in my uterus which of course could only be implantation. lol. Might try POAS again on Thursday. Funny business this ttc lark!

twinklestar2 · 17/03/2013 17:53

Congratulations Alex! It all sounding so promising. You deserve it after 15 months of TTC. Is this your first?

Adsum · 17/03/2013 16:23

Wow congrats Alex!! Grin

weechops · 17/03/2013 15:58

Alex woohoo really pleased for you! :)

kittykatsforever · 17/03/2013 15:52

Congrats Alex, I was optimistic for you with implantation as I'd had exactly the same thing with my dd1 and a lovely straightforward pregnancy after so fx for you

Thingymajigs · 17/03/2013 14:55

Aw, it really gives me hope when one of us graduates. Hopefully we'll all join you soon. Smile

Alexandra6 · 17/03/2013 14:29

Thanks red it's amazing how everything goes from heartbreaking to hopeful so quickly. See algae is the way forward Grin joking!!

With all this grapefruit juice flowing I think more good news is on it's way for this thread!

RedRobin1 · 17/03/2013 13:48

Congratulations alex I am so happy for you! All of your 2ww symptoms were true Smile so so pleased!

Needed to hear some good news and you've given me some hope that it will happen...

Alexandra6 · 17/03/2013 13:45

Thank you thingy I honestly think I'm in shock, I'd got so used to disappointment and feeling crap over the past 15 months that I can't believe this!! I'm trying to stop myself getting carried away as I'm well aware it's high risk anyway, but maybe more so because of clomid, PCOS and my cervix issues...but it really is brilliant! Of course am going to stick around here a) because it's too early to get excited and move on and b) because I really want to support you all until you get your BFPs and graduate to antenatal with me! Think you'll be soon behind me especially with your DH's determination this cycle! x

Thingymajigs · 17/03/2013 13:38

Wow! Congratulations Alex! Grin A BFP on your first ovulating cycle is amazing. Looks like all that spotting was due to implantation then. Smile

Alexandra6 · 17/03/2013 13:25

BFP!!!!!!!!!!! Only dpo 11 so too early to celebrate really, but amazing!!!

RedRobin1 · 17/03/2013 12:03

Fingers crossed kerry the egg will pop from your good tube.

Glad you had a good nights sleep ads I had a late night and early morning so feel very shattered

Adsum · 17/03/2013 11:58

Had a lovely glass of Chablis and fell asleep on the sofa!! I was exhausted so it was nice to feel sleepy (had a few bad nights sleep recently) and the monster slept til late too - bliss! CD3 here... Still a few days until operation pregnancy number 4 gets under way...

Adsum · 17/03/2013 11:57

Good luck kerry - sometimes luck (and God) is on our side Wink

KerryJewels · 17/03/2013 11:34

Hmmm...grapefruit juice sounds much more appealing than cough syrup...I actually bought the cough syrup with intention of drinking it for more ewcm but decided that didn't sound safe.I'm already taking chances with Metformin and Clomid:( well AF is gone so time to get busy again!!Ovulation shouldn't be here for me until closer to the end of the month-I hope the egg drops from the side that has a tube.So many obstacles..if this happens it will truly be a miracle from God 0:-) Good luck friends...create life!!!

Good for you wee - you have inspired me! I'm going to crack open a bottle now...! Smile

weechops · 16/03/2013 19:35

Grin ads mmmm quite possibly slightly less bonkers, but not much. I always like to give 100% effort to worthy causes ha! And sorry if I make no sense, dh got me some pink fizz and I started early. Don't usually drink so should be fun later :)

Adsum · 16/03/2013 18:49

Quick quezzie- were you all this bonkers before ttc?!!!
Hmmm... actually I was but in a different way...

Lol @ reds dh Grin and at Brazil nut smuggling - very cunning I might try that...
