Lol the funniest thing of all this is that the bfp is just the start of a lifetime of worries and confusion!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 22/01/2014 11:22

I think I ov'd yesterday... but who knows. My body has a mind of its own! FF should clarify in a couple of days if my temps behave!

mum2kiss · 22/01/2014 10:54

Im trying to avoid opks and temping...my memory is virtually non existent these days and I know I'd never get accurate readings because I'd be do it all hours of the day and night, randomly throughout the week!

When do you think you ov'd english ?

EnglishGirlAbroad · 22/01/2014 10:13

It's so annoying Mum2, I dont think it'll really hinder a bfp but its nice to see! Especially if you're not opking. I'm doing EVERYTHING! Opks, temping, checking cervix position etc etc.

Just a waiting game now I think..... Hmm

mum2kiss · 22/01/2014 10:03

I have the same issue english

I started taking pregnacare conception a couple of weeks ago and ive had no cm at all this cycle! We have still continued to dtd and I am 4 days into the 2ww (assuming I ovulated on Saturday! )

EnglishGirlAbroad · 22/01/2014 09:43

Hi Ladies,
Can i hop on here. Still on Jan bus too because I have no idea when my bfp is due after mc last month.
Think I ov yesterday so that should take me into Feb. Fingers crosseed for a bfp!
Trying to find someone over here in Amsterdam to work their magic on my feet. GoinG to get EPO for next month as well if no luck this time.
I really think that Pregnacare has potentially dried up my cm.
I'm sure I used to always notice ewcm before TTC! And a lot of it! Now... nada!!

MrsF2510 · 22/01/2014 08:11

I'm 6dpo and am frantically trying to symptom spot but am clutching at straws. Thought I could feel a dull ache in my pelvis yesterday while waiting for dinner to cook - probably was just hungry!!! This is worse than countdown to Christmas ever was!!!

So starting the bloody 2 ww wait again ... Will try to not think about it quite so much this time.
Feeling blue tonight , just heard earlier that my son's old classmate's mom past away from cancer I didn't even know she'd had . Seems to happen quite a lot at his previous school. 3 young children left behind , I think she was in her 40 only . Puts things into perspective and makes me even more determined to add a new little life to our family !

MrsExtraOrdinary · 21/01/2014 20:39

Well clearly I should have just asked you all straight! BlushGrin instead of trying to be clever! But hey i will give anything a go even googling wildlife! Grin

mama31 · 21/01/2014 20:09

Which may I say is the best way as these methods on here are always tried and tested....and we usually do get to see the results!

mama31 · 21/01/2014 20:08

M33R yay!!!! Are you back with us???? Please say yes I've saved you a seat ;) well...re the koala plan....gents first is something to do with sucking up the spermies with the contractions from your O after his! I think! I read a few things on Dr google about it and it seems to make sense!

Imaginary I so know how you feel....i always have af dragging in from spotting 4 or 5 days prior...makes me so mad!!! I ditched the b6 ages ago...I don't find it helped!

Mrsextra hahahahaha!!!! Brilliant! Wildlife organisations!!! No the koala plan is of course a method from a lady on here....we only believe eachother we don't actually get our information from other sources!! haha!

pebble82 · 21/01/2014 19:37

Snowbells - use my trick and tell your DP/DH that you could murder a brew. He'll go off to the kitchen leaving you to cycle in peace ;)

SnowBells · 21/01/2014 19:35

Koala Plan wildlife organization… Grin

I have started the Manuka Honey… but don't want to completely alienate DH with the cycling!!!! Blush

pebble82 · 21/01/2014 19:32

lol at Koala Plan wildlife organisations!

If it ends up working MrsKoala should really get a book deal - or at least trademark it!

SnowBells · 21/01/2014 19:28

Hmmm… if it does not work this month, I might try reflexology...

htbftm · 21/01/2014 18:46

Fab news Sazzle! Congrats! xx

MrsExtraOrdinary · 21/01/2014 18:41

Thankyou mama31, I actually googled koala plan and I just got wildlife organisations! Grin Would it be greedy to have an orgasm before and after dh? Or have I got to be more patient? Wink Is manuka honey a health food shop thing of a tesco thing? Will give that a go in my low key ttc, so not bothered face! Wink

gennibugs · 21/01/2014 18:29

I've had reflexology years ago and thought it was so relaxing. It was to help with headaches. It did seem to work so I would definitely consider it for later down the line if need be.

sazzlehopes · 21/01/2014 18:23

Spinning! SNAP!! X

sazzlehopes · 21/01/2014 18:22

Snowbells reflexology is supposed to help much like acupuncture. Your feet are like a map of your body and the reflexologist uses pressure points on the feet to help with problems going on in your body. I think it's from the Egyptians. If you google it you'll find lots of info on it.

spinningirl10 · 21/01/2014 18:19

Snowbells if you google it you can read about it. Reflexology helps with all sorts if ailments and just general well being. It says it can be very good when trying to concieve and if you have fertility worries.

sazzlehopes · 21/01/2014 18:18

M33r I did a diggie this morning. It said it in nice big letters! Pregnant 2-3 weeks! I just hope it stays put. So many sad tales of mc on here, I don't think I realised how common it really was...

SnowBells · 21/01/2014 18:13

What would reflexology help with???

SnowBells · 21/01/2014 18:13

gennibugs

Maybe practice makes you perfect??? Wink

gennibugs · 21/01/2014 17:55

Oh and I meant to say my work colleague got pregnant with her first after 19 months of trying and it was the first month she had tried reflexology. She's just got pregnant with her second and conceived the first month of trying! So I guess you just never know.
