The July BFP bus PART 2 - All aboard the lucky magical number 7

Still no af. not feeling particularly good though, think it means she's on her way. Hate how she's toying with me. For others in limbo I feel your frustration!
Now on train home after ridiculous early 5am start. Out to dinner tonight - 9pm table! Haven't stayed out that late for a very long time. Loooong day.

Lol Fox, I spend a lot of time watching the oh do stuff, especially in the garden, I drive him nuts if I even attempt to help. If af is still AWOL by Sat I'll be skipping the vino

Oooh, that sounds like a lovely weekend Londa I will be mostly laying a patio. Well, I will mostly be watching DH lay a patio.

Hopefully I will get another outdoor swim in too.

I'm really keen for a few drinks too but I'm gonna wait for AF to show first.

Have fun in Edinburgh this weekend Dosney We are taking the kids to Burntisland for the funfair and the beach tomorrow then off to a BBQ at a friends house on Saturday, can't wait Think af will be here by then so I can have a vino or 10

Well for the day technically, I don't leave till tomorrow morning.

I make that 15.44. I'm outta here!

Gone for the day or gone for the weekend?

15 minutes left and then I'm gone!

I feel violated, I just removed a tampon and definitely felt a bit of movement like I produced a vacuum and everything sucked down a bit, then the seal broke and everything pinged back into place.

Pretty sure I now know where my right ovary is

I think I fell off the bus for a moment there. You weren't on my threads I'm on list anymore!

I went to a fertility yoga class last night and it was really good. Unfortunately there was only 2 weeks of term left when I started so one more and then a summer break and back in September.

I've got about a week left before I can POAS and I am noticing every single twinge and cramp down there... I'm sure there aren't normally this many, but maybe I normally just ignore them or don't notice them... Who knows!

Am going to squeeze on the end of this bus for the time being, though I may have to transfer to August.

Safyre, ttc#2, cycle 2, bfp ??

Never been regular and DS has not improved that situation. Spent 2.5 years ttc DS, so I am settling in the the long haul!

This month we did it every other to try and take the pressure off and I tried to ignore signs I might be ovulating. I was quite laid back about it all until this week lol then my poas obsession kicked in

wow toyboy and Australian lol. How long have you been ttc?

Sorry chubbykitty. I'm expecting mine soon and dreading it, though on the plus side when it arrives ican start trying again and no longer in limbo. also bubble gum ice cream is amazing x

bfn again I'm starting to get a bit crampy now though so think af is on her way

And she's here! I'm out this month

Please kill me with ice cream.

Ha ha ha! My fella is a toyboy Australian and is thankfully usually up to DTD. I hate having to do it on certain days though. Going to make a bit more effort this month to occasionally do it 'for fun' like the good old days!

Lol if dh had been more of a nympho I might have been pregnant by now

I am the exact same. Either a nun or a nympho!

I'm away for some shopping and going to get yet another test, will probably get another bfn but we will see

I must be messed up in the head coz I loved the pain of giving birth, was quite devastated when I had to have a c-section with my 2nd but even that was a great experience until he ended up poorly and in the neonatal unit

Then again I guess you've got the pleasure pain thing.
Pleasure = sex (sometimes lol)
Pain = giving birth

I used to have quite a high sex drive but it's not like that anymore lol. Though the hot weather isn't helping

It strikes me as a really weird way to go about having a family, sex. I mean, sex is something you do for fun. Having a baby is like the opposite of that - its a serious undertaking. And not very sexy. I feel like there should be some kind of assessment, somebody to certify that I'm ok to do this!

So yeah, sex for making babies. It doesn't seem logical.

I want to say I'm not like this, but now I think about it we've not had sex since Ov time about 12 days ago. Prior to that we did it 5 times in a week. Oh...

I can totally relate to this! TTC has put me off sex completely. My DP also told me he 'felt like a sperm bank'. Urggghhhh.

Hi everyone, hope you don't mind me hopping on.

We've been ttc since early December, with no luck. This would be #3 for me, but #1 for dh. The length of time it's taking as surprised both of us, especially when everyone around us seem to be getting pregnant fairly easy. I'm now on CD 28, but my cycles are irregular. I'm not holding out much hope for this month due to doing a test on Monday and getting a bfn.

Hi laptop girl. We were the same. I was running round when I had ewcm telling dh I was ovulating and we needed to act because it only lasted about a day, might as well of been talking to one of the dogs! I also tried to be seductive, but my husband thought thought I was messing around lol
Anyway after tantrums and tears (all me) this month we've been doing it every other day. We also got a game from ann summers because it was getting to the point where sex wasnt fun any more. My dh even said at one point it felt like I only wanted him for his sperm. ;-)

totally normal Laptopgirl. That happened me and DH on cycle 3. By cycle 3 of trying DH felt that I was turning him into a performing monkey.

We had a falling out and we barely talked for a day or so. When the dust settled we talked it out and the conclusion we drew was that we both agreed that just having sex to TTC began to feel like a chore however, we also agreed it only felt that way for those few days around ovulation and the rest of the month that was just for fun felt amazing.

So the agreement we came to reach together was that although having sex on specific days for specific reasons was killing the romance the goal of what we wanted to acheive was so much greater and more important that it was worth those feelings of sometimes just going through the motions.

Ironically cycle 3 was the month I conceived although we sadly lost it a couple of weeks later
