Haha MrsG yes I hope you don't need all of those! Could you take some back and swap them for something else?

Bluesky, ooh I'm rubbish on so little sleep and yay for +opk and dtd, fx you caught the eggGrin

Thank you ladies, I am going to take the first job if the hours suit. I have to see them on Saturday so hopefully it will work out.

broodylicious · 05/11/2014 20:27

spinning, congrats on the job offer. By the law of sod, that bfp can't be far off Smile

So sorry I missed today's bfp! Congrats huff. May you have a wonderfully dull pregnancySmile

Gosh, you guys trying for dc4! I struggle with my one and although in desperate for dc2, I am also cacking it (ooh, an expression I've not used for a v long time!) at te thought of looking after a newborn and high maintenance toddler.

MrsGingerbread · 05/11/2014 20:06

Hello everyone!

I ran out of b6 - dh kindly picked some up today. He came back with 500 of them!

I hope I don't need that many - that's enough for the next year and a half!!

Right - now to read back to see what gossip I have missed :)

Blueskygirl30 · 05/11/2014 20:02

Evening all,

Just catching up on the past couple of days!

MaMaPo I'm so sorry for your loss! I'm sure your grandad knew how loved he was and it would be great if you get a boy, lovely idea continuing his name on.

Spinning yeh my job is fab but I definitely didn't feel glamorous getting off the aeroplane at 0700 this morning having got out of bed at 0800 yesterday morning and only a couple of 30mins sleep since then! Congratulations on another job offer, that's great! I had a look at your chart and I don't think you've ovulated yet, keep DTD, and make sure your DH rustles up some good sessions for best quality swimmers! Wink

Sunbathing I can't believe how quickly time has gone for it to be almost scan time for you! how exciting!!

Frolic what kind of dog is Frolicdog? I have this image of this magic ovulation dog doing a crazy little dance whenever one of us ovulates and I need to put a breed to the image!!!

Congratulations Huff, wishing you a happy and healthy 8 months.

I'm so pleased, I got my positive opk today around midday and managed to DTD this afternoon after a quick nap. I did a spot of upside down cycling and am trying out a softcup since I've been up and about since then. Might see if we can DTD again tonight or tomorrow morning. So hopefully, after all that stressing, I've not missed my chance this month!

Frolicacid · 05/11/2014 19:58

Congratulations on the job offer spinning. Any idea which one, if either, you will take?

Frolicdog is either being very brave or is losing her hearing with old age. Either way, we have a peaceful pup tonight, which is good.
I hope sunbathing's cats aren't too upset. Poor things.

DH is better, so I may pounce on him again later. I suspect I have already ov'd, but I think I had a 'false surge' last cycle, stopped dtd and probably missed proper ov a few days later. Going to keep going for a good few days just in case the same happens this cycle.

MissMrsMummy · 05/11/2014 19:58

You're not out yet sherbet! Fx

MissMrsMummy · 05/11/2014 19:57

Wow bovny you have been busy! Fx it pays off for you!

Orangeisthenewbanana · 05/11/2014 19:56

Fingers and toes crossed for you Bovny. You and your DH really deserve a bfp after all that effort!

Sherbet38 · 05/11/2014 19:54

Hi all

Just catching up on the thread ... Sorry for your loss mamapo Sad

Congrats on your BFP huffs and job offer spinning Smile

CD 30 here, AF was due on the 4th, but ff has moved it to the 8th as I ov'd late. I'm 12 dpo, having lots of cramps, like pre AF cramps but stronger. I've given in and bought some heat pads which seem to be helping. If AF is going to show up I just wish it would hurry up, rubbish longest cycle yet....& yet I'm remaining pessimistically optimistic Hmm

MissMrsMummy · 05/11/2014 19:54

spinning well done on 2 job offers and hopefully the good luck will come in threes!

Bovnydazzler · 05/11/2014 19:54

Evening all,
Just checking in.

Not many POASers yet, hoping there will be some success stories to come!

Blueberry, sorry 1st clomid cycle wasn't successful, I know there is a temptation to assume it will work 1st time but there is every chance yours will still be coming, will the docs increase your dose or keep you on 50mg as you ovulated? Typical that clomid symptoms mimic pregnancy ones (I'll bear that in mine next month)

I've been lurking but trying to keep off the thread to save obsessing. I largely considered myself out this cycle until I get clomid next cycle. BUT now on CD31 and this morning got my 1st positive OPK since March (2 tests a day except on periods!). I've also got much more CM than usual. My DH was due to be away tonight with work, we've agreed he will do a 5 hour round tip just so we can DTD tonight!! Is that ridiculous?! I just feel that this is my first positive OPK in 9 months, we have to try!! We have DTD loads this cycle, CD 9,11,13,15,17,19,21,24,26,28,30 (I just don't know when/if ovulating so didn't want to chance missing it) an planing it every night till the weekend now I've a positive OPK.

Don't want to get my hopes up too much, ovulating doesn't mean pregnancy but feel I've waited a while to get a positive! Clomid starts next month if not, which should at least bring cycle length down from 50 days!

angelaham · 05/11/2014 19:38

Dozy - i always hope the spotting is implantation bleeding but deep down no its af on its way, so disheartening

MissMrsMummy, my LP is around 10 days, which i don't think is too bad, hoping that the vitamin b complex with the pregnancy supplements do the trick, it makes me feel not alone knowing other people are suffering with it too,

Treaclepie19 · 05/11/2014 19:35

Haha thanks want, more likely it's because I'm not ovulating but hey.
Congrats huffs :)

toothachereturns · 05/11/2014 19:22

Evening all!
This is thee longest wait so far. Bored bored bored. Sad
No fireworks for the toothaches tonight.... It's too cold (it's to be -2 here tonight) and we'd have to park miles away. So cozy in front of the fire it is.
Congrats Huff! Cycle 1 too.... Very lucky. SmileSmileSmile Enjoy every moment. Smile

MissMrsMummy · 05/11/2014 19:11

Ooh congrats huffs I missed your bfp! Great news :-D

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 05/11/2014 19:03

I'm with frolicdog on the firework front, don't like big bangs... fireworks are pretty but they make me jump so much that I get cramp! not a weirdo or anything

Treacle let's hope so! 6 is a lot :)

Treaclepie19 · 05/11/2014 18:59

Hi all :)
Thanks broody, I'm not sure what I'd want to do to be honest! Sounds like you've got a good plan.

Good luck with your scan sunbathing, when is it?

Cd15 for me and 6th flashing smiley today.
Is history repeating itself? Cycle I got my bfp I had 9 flashing smileys.

spinningirl10 · 05/11/2014 18:53

Jcandy, sorry you've had a crap dayThanks could you have caught the end of your peak this morning? Maybe that's why you got a negative this evening. I would dtd Grin

Frolic, men are funny, I think dp is putting in more effort since we saw the fertility doctor......she just repeated everything I'd already told him about ttc but I think he thought I'd made it up to get more sexSmile

spinningirl10 · 05/11/2014 18:49

Victoria, well done on the running, you'll be amazed at how you improve.
Hope you enjoy the day with your friends dc Grin
Oh and if you can get dh to dtd again I would go for it.....one for luck as they say!

Yes Kitty is the temping guru so I'm going with what she says Grin

Fireworks going off all around but I've had such a mad day and ds watched a few from the window and isn't bothered about going out. I had another interview today and was offered a job! Must be on a roll, having not really had a 'proper' job for quite some time I'm feeling chuffed that I've had 2 interviews and been offered both jobsSmile

Have got to talk on Skype tonight with my German students parents!! Think I'll leave the talking to dpGrin

Frolicacid · 05/11/2014 18:40

Congratulations huffs Thanks

You are all freaking me out talking about christmas shopping! I suppose I should get started.

spinning lol at you DH. Mine is the same - he seems to be putting extra effort into dtd. It's like he'd be disappointed in himself if the baby is made with anything less than great sex! Mind you, his cold this week may have cured him of that plan. I think he does feel quite heroic for managing quickies whilst poorly, bless him. I won't burst his bubble by pointing out that I'm the hero for letting him touch me in such a snotty state!

I hope everyone is enjoying bonfire night. We will be staying in with frolicdog who isn't very keen on big bangs.

Jcandy · 05/11/2014 18:33

Hi everyone!

I've had a rubbish day at work where nothing has gone right Confused Hope everyone else's has been better! Congratulations huff!

So I got a peak reading on my cb dual opk this morning on cd10! Waaaaayy too early compared to previous 2cycles. Negative on an IC opk this afternoon. What's going on?.?.. Hmm

victoria401 · 05/11/2014 18:31

My friends kids are 8, 5 and 3.5. They are sweet kids and I love them to bits :-D I'm hoping they can amuse themselves a lot of the time as I don't think I can play all day! I'm used to the quiet life at the moment!

Orangeisthenewbanana · 05/11/2014 18:28

Just popping in quickly. Congratulations Huffs! Great news Smile
