starky step dad and OH are body builders. It's like looking into some sort of weird baby chick hatching ground in my bin the amount of eggs he goes through. And snap with the chicken breast. Protein farts are the worst Blush

And how weird is it watching men obsess over other mens bodies? Hmm

I follow their 'cutting' plan when I want to diet but I tend to get obsessed too, which is not healthy becaise i have a history of eating disorders (you could never tell now Wink) it's so hard and soul destroying I give up.

Ni I second that. Well done ladies, some men aren't worth the oxygen they breathe

IndiX · 02/01/2016 15:39

You sound like me Starky I am apparently very aggressive in my sleep sometime I may be awake and hit him due to loud breathing/snoring

Ni4444 · 02/01/2016 15:34

Ha! He's a lucky man Stark! Never a dull moment! I like my sleep too much to be able to have coherent-like conversations. My OH just gets a "No Talking" shouted at him if he tries to speak to me when I'm asleep!

Ladies I am very glad to hear that you left those creeps behind! Nobody deserves that level of crazy. Strong women to move onwards and upwards from that Flowers

I love long weekends...! Managed to get out of pjs today for my "I'm a pin cushion" appointment (acupuncture)

Oh get this..OH went to GP to see about male fertility checks...the next available apt at the fertility service is March!!!!! hope to be upduffed by then!

kat creamy white cm is good post ovulation! And well done you for training! That's determination! I like it!

I'm just going to finish what's left in the sweetie cupboard and then not buy anymore haha haha it will take me three months! I bulk buy Christmas treats! ill have to limit myself! I try not to "diet" because I get overly invested and irritate myself! We tend to stick to a loose low gi meal plan, Dh eats protein like it's going out of fashion though! We buy 5kg of chicken breast at a time and it lasts about a week!

miley I'm quite rude in my sleep, I've told him to fuck off and all sorts in the past! And I've given him a fat lip when I've been particularly "flaily" However he's an ex boxer and once winded me with a body shot to the ribs when he was having arms spasms as he was dropping off! So it's swings and roundabouts! He's got an achy jaw which is my fault today I'm told, from walloping him in the chops! Which is consistent with the teeth marks in my right hand only joking Grin

Oooooh yey! FX indie babydustbabydustbabydust!!

Kiss my arse knob head is brilliant. I don't function well enough to insult whilst asleep. It's alway just a 'for fucks sake man' typical geordie

Strange period cramps don't feel like period cramps anymore. Maybe it's more farting! And I had indian last night Wink

kat go you. I'm dreading going back to the gym. May leave it til February until all of the new year's resolutioners have packed in and I've lost enough weight to fit back into my gym leggings

IndiX · 02/01/2016 14:54

Yes Kat I am now nil by mouth after stepping on the scales this morning.
I'd also like to know what CM is like if conception has happened?
Thanks for the good luck ladies xxx

KatOnATinRo0f · 02/01/2016 14:50

Okay so back to CM.... Post ovulation if have conceived then what are we expecting? I have quite a lot of white creamy CM the last few days.

In other news.... First work out of new year and I feel like I can't breathe. I'm never eating cake again.

Thanks miley Dh is less than impressed with me today apparently I "kicked the living shit" out of him "all night!" He had to tell me off at one point because I kept thumping him in the shoulders! He just said "you were a nightmare! I turned over and you whacked me in the face, so I sternly told you to move up and you told me to 'kiss my arse knobhead' " so I was even a bad mood Betty whilst asleep! Grin oh married bliss!

I think you're ovulating handbags go forth and bone like a champ!

GOOD LUCK INDIX Will be thinking of you tomorrow ☺ lots of baby dust xxx

IndiX · 02/01/2016 14:38

I definitely agree that until AF comes you're still in the running!
So I've tried hard not to symptom spot or turn in to a crazy lady BUT I have been weeing non stop today, I do wee a lot anyway as I try to drink loads of water but I feel like I'm weeing every 20mins today! I've just bought a first response but don't think it's the FRER one, I'll try it in the morning. I'm feeling a lot more positive today. I'm scared but now excited for testing in the morning. Please send me lots of baby dust/luck Grin

Handbagsnhorses · 02/01/2016 14:15

Colour... not whire. New phone hates me clearly 😂😂

Handbagsnhorses · 02/01/2016 14:12

I don't have a Cycle atm! Didn't bleed on the mini pill...

Sorry for the major TMI but just went to the loo and had CM like egg white but was more like a super pale yellowy whire... just one bit when I wiped.

Sorry again for the gory details! Lol

Mileymoocow · 02/01/2016 14:10

Starky even when you're pissy you still have a wicked sense of humour 😂 it's keeping me going anyway.

FYI 24 and CM about 5-6 days. Like none stop. I felt like I'd pissed myself.

Miley I shall send you some happy in a jar my lovely girl! I was such a misery guts last night, It was awful! I was just a frowny, angry bear with a side of the weeps thrown in for good measure! I got up this morning and had a fizzy berocca type thing which I've been avoiding until I realised they didn't have vitamin A in and I'm determined to be happier today! It's all the not knowing that got me down yesterday, it's such a mine field of uncertainty this ttc!

handbags that sort of sounds like what I have when I'm due to ovulate. Like a pinched nerve tugging internally. What cd are you on?

Mileymoocow · 02/01/2016 13:59

Stark can I have some of your happy? I think I've caught your everyone can fuck off I hate the world-itus today. AF pains have crept up like the little shit bags they are. But I'm not out until my uterus lining falls out of my floo right? Wink I'm not due on for 6 days yet and normally don't cramp until the day before. Hope she's early so I can try again to graduate soon.

canters you're probably well on your way to being married now but I hope you've had an amazing day. Hope you have a fab honeymoon and don't spend the ENTIRE time shagging in your hotel - Al fresco fornication is an option

Handbagsnhorses · 02/01/2016 13:52

Lower right side... not left. Definitely not far enough over to be appendix or ovary x

Handbagsnhorses · 02/01/2016 13:51

Random one but just have some shooting pain on my lower left, further over than my ovary, like a couple of cms to the right of my belly button and about 5cms down. Never felt anything like it. Wasn't painful but I was definitely aware of it... lasted about 2 mind, then a few mins after that had a tugging feeling behind my belly button. Again not painful but odd!

My poor body is so confused 😂🙈😁

Handbagsnhorses · 02/01/2016 12:50

Hahaha love it starky. My ex is still on bail, classic woe is me sob story being fed to all he meets. Massive recluse but set up Facebook and befriended all my contacts as well as friends (I run a magazine). Luckily everyone sees through his bullcrap and let's him get on with it! I had to relocate over 300 miles to put decent distance between us as he's really unhinged. My current partner is so laid back its lovely, I can talk to him and he's so supportive - it's taking some getting used to! Glad you're all good now!! ☺☺☺

harriet you're right! 2016 is going to be our year! We are so lucky to have had so many bfp'ers already! And that's good about your cycle becoming more predicable, and after af, you can get back to dtd and ttc! This long cycle feels like a slog and a half!

Surprisingly, and sadly, that sounds exactly like my ex handbags! The control he had over me was immense, ever since I got out I've been determined to be happy! I escaped April 2012, met my now Dh April 2013 and have never been happier! Ex even tried and epicly failed to befriend Dh when we first got together! When Dh told me I laughed out loud! Grin It was like Glinda waving a magic wand and saying to the witch of the north "you have no power here!" With a tinkling laugh! Grin

harrietm87 · 02/01/2016 12:42

starky I've been here from the start! I also had the feeling of being left behind because I'm one of the few who actually stuck to the jan start date! 2016 is going to be our year - I know it!

I woke up today with really bad cramps - def AF on her wicked way. I'm actually pleased because my last one was really late. Glad I'm getting back into a regular cycle again - 33-34 days is long though!

canters happy wedding!

Also I thought Sherlock was crap! Don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it but the identity of the killers enraged me!

Handbagsnhorses · 02/01/2016 12:31

Oh starky I could bore you all day with it! He wouldn't let me eat and drink for 12 hrs periods when I was pregnant etc. Wasn't allowed to leave the house, really extreme stuff! Finally got out in Jan 2015 after he was arrested for 2 charges against me and methe the most amazing guy a few months later who has had a crazy ex wife kinda like mine! Funny how life works out! Never been happier! ☺☺

I am in a MUCH better mood this morning! The hiiiiills are aliiiiiive with the sound of muuuuusic! Skipping about etc in reality, I've out the washing in and am having a cup of tea in bed to the tune of people clay pigeon shooting

runner shelb I've got an iron will when it comes to some things! And I know it will be two weeks of genuine obsessing till I actually come on! And given my mysterious okp debacle, I think it's better otherwise I'll be hysterical! I'll start testing next week, promise! For you guys! 😁 I'm glad you're feeling cautiously optimistic for me, that actually makes me feel better! I think I'm of the opinion that if I decide it's a bfn now, anything else is a bonus! pink you're right "you're not out till you're out!" Grin

It's ok today, I've calmed down! I was getting a smidgen tightly wound yesterday! Today I'm going to trim my amazon wish list and order treats! What are we all up to this fine day?

indi jam thank you guys! Smile it is a giant in fuck! I find myself having a meltdown once every few weeks, then I'm fine again! Definetly get FRER, look on the back, most tests tell you how many iu they are sensetive to. The lower the better!

GOOD LUCK CANTERS!! you will have an amazing day! Pop in if you grate chance but otherwise just enjoy every minute! 👰💐💒💖

handbags I know what you mean! You're ex has the hallmarks of mine, tell list of shit I wasn't "allowed" to do was as long as my arm! Good riddance I say! Onwards and upwards!
