(...or poke me in the right direction of an existing one?)

We've been fannying around ttc#2 for a while now, and I'm starting to feel deflated Sad

What do you think? Have you tried it? Doing it? Can we even do that much shagging? Blush

Failing that, can you kick me up the arse to cheer me up? Grin

Mimilicious013 · 25/01/2016 08:04

Thanks Loki.wishing u the best and hope it happens soon before u start the obsessing bit.a casual approach is more relaxing after what u have gone through BIG FX !!

Loki17 · 24/01/2016 16:58

Mimi I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you! DH will start 'not trying but not preventing' at some point this week. Not ready to launch into smep just yet.

Mimilicious013 · 23/01/2016 18:31

Good luck village.was reading your post and 17months is a long time dear.wishing the best of luck this cycle fx

Hi all, I've been lurking and sending you silent fairy dust!

I just want to add hope for you all. Using SMEP helped me to get my two gorgeous girls. I was told I had a 5% chance of ever being pregnant naturally me with a combination of SMEP and pre seed I have been pregnant 4 times (1 mc and 1 chemical preg + 2 DD)
It works, just keep going! It look us 5 years together our 2, but my odds were very poor!

Keep up th BD and good luck!

Thanks bugmuncher Smile

Bugmuncher · 22/01/2016 08:43

Congratulations cally!

cally0 · 22/01/2016 08:30

Good luck everyone. The first month of trying SMEP worked for us! I got my bfp a couple days ago. It's knackering but worth it! Xxx

CamMc · 22/01/2016 06:16

That's so funny bug that we're on exactly the same dates! I've got cramps and a runny nose but no nausea. I have got sore boobs but I had that the last two months so didn't think anything of it. I tested with a different brand when I got home and had a solid second line so felt confident to call my mum and tell her. I'm going to call the doctor on Monday when I'm back and book in!
Hope everyone else is doing ok - keeping fingers crossed X

Bugmuncher · 21/01/2016 15:54

cam I also had to google what to do! I have been testing every day as AF isn't due until Sunday Blush. I still am a bit crampy and also have a horrible cold but don't know if that's related. How about you?

Bugmuncher · 21/01/2016 15:52

mimi this is from this morning

Would anyone like to join me in a SMEP thread?
CamMc · 21/01/2016 15:45

I know it's so strange! I felt a bit foolish earlier when I googled what do you do after a positive pregnancy test. Seems like advice was wait until after the date you are due AF so you are 'late' and then book in to see a GP. I think I'll book one on Monday when I'm back from my weekend away.
Have you got any symptoms??

Mimilicious013 · 21/01/2016 15:44

Hie bug pictures please.
That is an interesting question,when do u tell pple.(so much excitement mixed with a bit of fear) hmm.

Bugmuncher · 21/01/2016 15:30

I'm good thanks. Also 12 DPO like you! Have you booked to see your GP? Mine doesn't have any appointments until the 1st Feb. When do you think you'll tell people?

CamMc · 21/01/2016 14:55

How are you doing bug??

CamMc · 21/01/2016 14:54

Thanks. Just spoke to my husband who was asleep this morning and we've agreed to keep it to ourselves until next week in case. This was third month SMEP and month 11 TTC bug

Bugmuncher · 21/01/2016 14:23

cam congratulations!! Was this your first SMEP month?

Mimilicious013 · 21/01/2016 11:21

Wow cam that is a definate positive.!!

CamMc · 21/01/2016 11:19

Thanks!! I'm being cautiously optimistic! I cannot concentrate at all at work though...keep staring off into space thinking about it. I'm 12 DPO. Tested on 10dpo and got a BFN which upset me. The only reason I tested his morning was to rule myself out so I could drink beer in Brussels this weekend! This is month 11 TTC and cycle 3 on SMEP, so definitely hang in in there
