Congratulations, HotCross! Hope to see you over in pregnancy! X

Bought a digital test this morning and got a BFP! I'm so pleased - not least for the fact that I was nearly bankrupting myself with all the tests I got through Grin

TeaAndANatter I laughed out loud when I read your last post. That was me last week. at one point I reasoned with DP that we defiantly should have a bonk, because then we will have worked up an appetite for some nice buttered toast.

I've got my fingers and toes crossed that all of your get your BFP's soon Thanks

From where am I going to dredge up the enthusiasm to persuade DH again tonight that sex would be a magical and life enhancing act?? The novelty began to pale some time ago, and now I'm out of making-us-frisky tricks!

Perhaps we'd be better going on some sort of behavioural reinforcement plan - for every shag we get a token, and we can swap the tokens for good stuff at the weekend? Is that really dreadful to even contemplate? Maybe two tokens for a less than half hearted shag, and three tokens for enthusiastic participation? Wink

Good luck with the digital hotcross, sounds promising!

Luxlisbon82 · 02/07/2013 13:32

Can I join please, ttc # 3 cycle 1 since coming off pill in May, due around 19th July. Kinda doing smep without opk yet as generally know when ovulating. Just married and we both work from home so it's been a bit of a shagfest.good luck anyone testing soon!

MrsHende · 02/07/2013 10:04

How exciting! Keep us updated!

HotCrossPun · 02/07/2013 09:46

I tested again this morning and there is a really really really faint line. It's so faint you can barely see it.

I took apart the test like a mad woman so I could get a better look, and I think there is one there.

I'm going to get a digital one on my way to work and find out for sure.

Anybody else testing today?

Terramirabilis · 02/07/2013 02:35

I'd like to join too. AF due Sunday 14th-ish (slightly irregular cycles). This is our first month of trying. Still naively excited about the whole thing.

williwonti · 01/07/2013 22:29

I am expecting af any time between thurs and mon, keeping busy until then!!!

argylesocks · 01/07/2013 21:48

mrshende it's a particular type of lube that's supposed to help the sperm live longer or something. You're not supposed to use regular lubes because the ph can mess up the sperm. I figured it was worth a shot!

MrsHende · 01/07/2013 20:30

Thanks Tea! Goggled it, think I'll give it a go!

makingdoo · 01/07/2013 20:30

Can I join please? AF due in around 5-7 days. Really don't think I am though!

TeaAndANatter · 01/07/2013 20:22

Why the hell not, I say (re joining on the amazingly lucky July thread!).

MrsHend - SMEP = Sperm Meets Egg Plan (google it if you fancy)

I've no idea when the dread AF is coming to visit, as I'm trying after a miscarriage so no idea when ovulation will happen, but I'm assuming I'll POAS sometime in July if AF doesn't show up (which obviously may just be due to not ovulating yet).

God bless us all, and all who (hopefully) sail in us!

MrsHende · 01/07/2013 20:09

Argyle, what is pre-seed?

Sonkey, what is smep.

And chelsbells, what amazing willpower!!!!

MrsHende · 01/07/2013 20:05

Can I join too? AF arrived on Saturday so I'm enjoying a wee glass of vino while I can!

Started ttc in November after I stopped bf DD, had a MC at Christmas and got back to ttc in February. It took us 11 cycles to hit the jackpot with DD1 so I'm used to the waiting game...!

chelsbells · 01/07/2013 18:23

Argyle I haven't tested since no! Mainly because it puts me in a foul, emotional mood! It's easier to deal with AF arriving than seeing 'negative' on a test! Taken a lot of will power mind! Having cramps though so suspecting AF is on her way....! Freaking typical!

Liquoriceallsort · 01/07/2013 17:50

Can I join please? Af due around 13th!

Tea1Sugar · 01/07/2013 17:11

Im in! Af due around 21st July Smile

argylesocks · 01/07/2013 16:48

chels you haven't tested since 7 days late?? That's impressive self control. Let us know the verdict!

chelsbells · 01/07/2013 09:16

I'll join.... Today is July and today I am 13 days late... So July may be our month! (Tested on 7 days late, negative, will test again tomorrow!) Holding out lots of hope!

Good luck to all Ladies! Smile

middleclassdystopia · 30/06/2013 23:33

I'm in. First month of ttc no.3, AF due 19th July.

Fingers crossed. Only came off the pill end of May and my first period was very light, not like a proper period. So no idea if I am ovulating yet but going for it anyway!

RaRaZ · 30/06/2013 23:02

Me please! Period due around 11th July

blackbirdatglanmore · 30/06/2013 22:13

AF is due 12th July! I don't think it has worked though so cross your fingers for BFP in July and April babies Grin

Good luck HotCross; I really hope you get a BFP!

oracle0711 · 30/06/2013 22:13

I'm in. This will be my first month trying, AF due around the 22nd so fingers crossed for everyone.

argylesocks · 30/06/2013 20:26

A friend of mine did that blackbird and it worked second try I think. Fingers crossed! When will you find out?
