The Elderberry Pavlovas- All aboard the Berrycopter. Thread 14

Ooh that reminds me, I must order some more opks!

Eeek kitty ........! don't want to jinx it by saying anything else.

Merk, would you or someone mind explaining the going for a wee thing? I don't understand

In PeasantNews, DH and I managed to have sex twice around the mid-point of my cycle (yesterday). I cannot tell if I OV this month because I screwed up temping and ran out of OPK sticks. Honestly, if I were this incompetent at work, I'd've been fired ages ago.

Is it wrong/icky or helpful to wear a Mooncup afterwards? One of my issues is with a retro cervix, it doesn't seem logical to lie on my back for ages, so I lie on my back for a bit, then my front, and then, er... hold everything in with my trusty MC. Might that help?

Sid didn't you say you thought the consultant's advice was out of date anyhow? If so you may have just done the right thing!! :)

It ain't over till it's over kitty!

thunder otd is wed but I will prob pimp before then!

guys (especially merk!) my temp dropped below my cover line today so I'm guessing game over? Did go for a wee in the night but not sure how close it was to waking. What do you think?

Tally amazing news. Hope steroids are helping x

Spare Will PM you the consultant's info

well berries I am sad to say that DH and I are terrible patients: consultant's advice to skip DTD last night was ignored, although DH made a valiant effort to cool things down In my defense I was overtaken by hormones and needed it as much as wanted it. In 2 weeks we'll either look at it as the bonk that worked and pat ourselves on the back for going with a feeling, or wonder if saving it for another day would've had a different result.

Bunny yes I feel the same; it's a little daunting that so many of us are now seeing FCs, but Merkin's right, if this is what it takes, then so be it even though it totally stinks to be told when to have sex even if you wind up ignoring the advice you paid for

Great news Tally! How are you feeling today?

Hooray tally!
