Moving on to May...Lets get start acting like Spring rabbits for BFPs in May.

Mines was done by a dodgy guy who got closed down soon after I got it done. Will be getting it coloured better and some nice colours added for my birthday if I don't get my BFP this cycle.

Thanks spinning I'm so curious about the bleach (and all the other homemade tests) that the second I get my BFP I'm gona do them all, lol

Ooops, sorry it is Blueberrys dragon that I love although yours is nice as well Linda....guess Blueberrys is newer and therefore fresher.

They had my meds up too high a while back and I felt like death. I know you are on a much higher dose than me though so you probably feel it worse.

Love that tattoo Linda.

Starbright, wow just watched that you tube bleach/pee test, amazing!!
I shall be trying that in a few days :)

They've put the meds up a bit too much I think. Ive asked for referral so many times and been refused. It drives me nuts. I'm just very very tired but think that's more the iron levels.

MrsE is your thyroid making you feel crap just now? It might make af go a bit wonky. Have you to change your meds?

I think the main consensus is don't do anything that is more than is normal for you. As long as your cycles are regular I think you should be ok. I still gym 4 times a week, will tame it when I get my bfp. But even then you can still maintain what you're used too, regular exercise is said to help with birth.

That's a pretty epic tattoo blueberry, very appropriate!!

Here's my very rubbish (done about 20 years ago) dragon. Excuse the flab

chandler I am a total gym-bunny.....I love going to classes...mostly Body Pump, Kettlebell and Spin classes. I do about 3 or 4 classes a week, one or two rest days (depends on DH's rota!) and then a 30 minute run on other days. I didn't know about it's impact on ovulation but surely regular exercise is a good thing? I would say that over-exercise and under-exercise are the bad things.

lindamagoo....bleach....really? Mental! And fx that your symptoms are for a BFP!

We've been asked to go ski-ing with friends in February next year! Dp is really keen, he's skied before but I haven't and I'm guessing I can't ski if pregnant? Have any of you been? Would there be anything for me to do if I can't ski?

Blueberry, the jewellery is really pretty on that website, got to be worth a try

I have one tattoo on my lower back of some flowers and vine. Has it done about 14 years ago and would quite like something else now.....hmm maybe a dragon

Chandler....I exercise the same during the whole month. Do something everyday either jillian michaels dvd, gym, cycle or run. But I now on my 9/10th cycle and have had a mc during that time so maybe I should ease off. Just don't want to put things on hold waiting for my bfp!

Btw the dragon isnt finished yet...

Chandlers Ive often wondered the same...Ive tried a lot to loose weight which never seems to work no matter how much I exercise but ive pretty much given up now.

Linda FX please be a BFP

Excuse the fat belly lol here my dragon

Fellow thyroid sufferers my levels have now gone a bit too far the other way! Tsh 0.01 t4 30. Ferritin still too low at 15, which is only an improvement from 11. Needs to be about 120 for me to feel super duper! Boring boring boring blood!

Haha flirty, mustn't forget the bleach

Blue no more blood since yesterday, very crampy still though so for now I'm going with pregnant, just cause I can til AF comes I have 13 tats, including a dragon on my side, I totally forgot about til now, lol.

Blueberry - hello! the Isle of Wight defo counts! Love it there

Here's a question that's been foxing me - how much exercise do you all do over ovulation/during/after/during 2ww? I've always been a bit of a gym nob in terms of really full-on cardio but read loads about how that can impact on ovulation, and given I have to wait long enough already for those eggs I slowed that down. But consequently am pie-ing up quite rapidly just doing yoga etc! Anyone wanna share thoughts on this?

Afternoon Ladies,

Bare with me while I catch up.

Welcome to everyone thats joined in the last couple of days.

Linda Update on the little bit of blood any more?
Bleach really hmmmm should I try this...hope your blood tests come back quick

Spinning I am totally one for buying things that might help DP thinks im mad so may look into the bracelet

Re tattoos- I have a few but the best one is a tattoo of a dragon on my belly btw how much do I rock lol

Kuruma Sorry about your flat mate hopefully it wont be as stressful as you think

Chandlers Lol at the cleaner...Im on the Isle of Wight does that count as abroad lol

Only CD9 for me so just waiting for ovulation then going to jump on DP already done it twice this week so going well getting very fed up with the waiting just want a BFP sooo bad.

Think it's time to join the may bus!

TTC #1 Cycle #3 BFP Due 25th May

Off to order some more preseed, pregnacare, vitamin b6, ovulation sticks, wine and bleach...

Duchese mine don't get progressively darker, but they def go from no colour to some colour which gives me a heads up that its imminent. Remember once you've got the positive opk its not too late, thats the key day to get dtd.
If you follow smep it recommends dtd every other day until positive opk, then 3 days of dtd, day off and then another. I've followed to the T this so far cycle, just got to dtd sunday now. So fx!!

That vidoe is crazy Star, I'd be too scared to do it in case it fizzed over the top!!

ok...mine definately didn't do this.
But then she had bfps on tests already

Haha Spotti, toothpaste and dandelions? Really? We could save ourselves a small fortune here

Love the idea of 'can you see my froth' spotti. I could totally see us all doing that. Before ttc did you ever think you would post pictures of sticks covered in your wee on the internet?

Love the bleach bfp indicator....off to clean loo
