Thread : Lucky Number 13 take 2. TTC#1 The one where AF can kiss our arse!

jem I'd be pretty pissed off about that, too. Definitely tell him how it makes you feel as it's pretty insensitive and you could do without it at such a time where you're gearing yourself up for your body to change completely. Men will be bloody men, he was probably hoping he'd not get caught!

Not at all Feefs! It made me laugh! I'm slowly going insane today...no pre AF cramps and creamy cm, and temp is still high.10 day luteal phase so AF due today or tomorrow. Have to just wait and see. Meh .... So sick of waiting...I just want to get upduffed! Wah!!!! 😭

Sorry if my "damnit ni" was insensitive I was just excited for you and hoping you weren't coming to join me in limbo land.

I would be annoyed too jem I think a word when he comes home. I don't think it's anything to worry about it but I would make him aware it was insensitive.

Hope your foot feels better soon pug! I'm waiting for DH to finish his computer game so we can go and get in a healthy shop. Minimal crap left in the house now small bit of Easter egg and some crisps only

I don't think I'm going to ovulate this month, no real signs, no ewcm and still get that damn flashing smiley face on the clear blue. Which means I'm probaby in for a super long cycle. Sighhhh.

Ni I echo what kwick said re sushi. Retuable eateries will freeze the fish which kills off any nasty parasites and then it's defrosted in controlled conditions, so it's perfectly safe to eat during pregnancy/whilst ttc.
I love sushi, we had some for lunch yesterday as it happens and I also had tempura salmon with rice and teriyaki sauce.

I am eating all the crap out of my house and it's been replaced with lovely healthy stuff. Was going to start couch to 5K today but I've gone and hurt the underside of my foot whilst walking the dogs this morning. Dammit!

*you TWO, not "you too"!! Typo!

Jem there's no such thing as silly! Sometimes we love them, sometimes we're mad at them, sometimes we're strong, sometimes we're sensitive and easily hurt! I've felt extra vulnerable since we started this ttc business....I guess we're committing our bodies, our lives to these guys, in a way that guys never have to commit to women (as in its easier for a guy to walk away and just do weekend contact with kids...it's usually the woman who ends up giving up more of her life post kids). Can you tell DH that you missed him and would have liked to get a message from him (and that it hurts to see him liking photos of half naked women). Maybe ask for a hug, or that you too do something nice as a couple today?I'm not always great at talking, but after our blow up last week OH is making so much more effort to do the things I said I was frustrated about (shopping and cooking, sharing the workload etc)

ni ignore rubbish if you're defo not out yet

kwick I know! It was just such a lovely day I kept wandering. Was tracking it on Map My Run and turned out it was rather a long stroll!

Feeling really annoyed with DH today. He's been on a stag do this weekend and not made much contact at all - not very surprising I know but I usually get a drunken text saying I love you or something. I then click on Instagram this morning to see he's Liked a picture of a half naked super skinny supermodel type person it's just made me feel really shit. She has no tits at all and I'm quite curvy. It's our first wedding anniversary on Tuesday and I just feel a bit crushed. Is this silly?

Damnit ni! Was looking forward for to your bfp this am!

Cycle day 34 here no sign of AF! Just annoyed now! Never had it this late but bfn yesterday!

Good to know Kwick!

Finally tested the fmu I potted at early O clock loo run this morning. White as snow on Internet cheapie at 10dpo! AF due tomorrow... no real cramps, no real signs of anything except slightly sore side boob all week (I've never really noticed having that any cycle before). Most likely out...again!!!

Sorry bluebird

Welcome crazycatlady

suchajem that peanut butter looks amazeballs! How can you have an unitentional 10k walk though?

ni don't worry about sushi - most reputable sushi places freeze the fish to get rid of any nasties anyway

Right off to read starky's blog!

Loving the pram for non baby vix :) I named our non children today on my walk - decided on Rose Emily, William Arthur George and Ava Joy. Sorted. Now all I need is this pesky bfp?

pug with you on nonchalant. I think nonchalant is going to sum up cycle 4 for me

Sliced apple in peanut butter is new to me fishy but I will give it a whirl!

feefs I hope these are milk making baby boobs you have!

moose sounds like a tough chat but really good one to get out there and those feelings aired xx

ni sounds like a lush day wasn't the weather gorgeous in London today? It's got me in such a good mood, blasting through my hangover fog and lifting me up!

Great blog post Starky! I can't wait to see how my OH reacts! Probably 100% clueless!

Love the new blog Stark. Dh went super weird about food poisoning with me. I remember a few weeks ago he'd been chopping raw chicken on the side and as I walked near it, he actually warned me off the area!

My reaction of leaning down to the raw chicken juice and pretending to lick it didn't hugely help his nerves: "BAAAAAAAABBBBBBBEEEEEE!!!!" Poor lamb was traumatised. I found it hilarious.

Aw Moose that's great that you had a good chat about it! This process is such a test on relationships! I took myself out for a very fun day in London town today too. One of those lovely lunch dates with an old friend that ends up being a whole day of "fly by the seat of your pants" fun. Had a few drinks and some sushi (hard to explain why I wouldn't fancy sushi to friend who didn't know we were ttc) Naughty, but hey ho upduffedness doesn't seem to be happening anyway!!

Jem that looks fab! My healthy work snack is rice cake smothered with peanut butter and slices of banana. I must try that though!!

Feefs if AF is gonna insist on coming for you I hope it comes quick so you can drink, be merry, and get on with next cycle!

OMG jem I have totally had that a nd it is bloody amazeballs!!!

Me and DP been out in fancy London Town today, lunch then drinks then home for pizza and chocolate and Ant and Dec on catch up!
Have had a few deep and meaningfuls, we are saving hard at moment for house/paying debt off and he is worried about impact of pregnancy/baby, although does want to try. Helped talking about it as it has felt he's not totally on board at times, but is at others, just have felt his hesitation. We're out next month as I'm away for two weeks now with work so will miss fertile week so at least we can have a relaxed month without all these conflicting emotions!!! Gosh this is all so difficult!!!!!

I went out for drinks tonight had 5 and took myself home early still no AF but bfn this am! I'm gonna feel guilty if I'm one of those people who don't get bfp for weeks and weeks but ah well will feel less bitter when AF arrives! Hopefully. . .

Welcome crazycatlady hope my crazy tonight doesn't put you off!

On the train home boobs are agony wish I could just unhook my bra but don't worry I won't!

Have you tried sliced apple dipped in peanut butter? It's the best!

Sorry about AF Bluebird, but yay on sangria! One of my weaknesses...

Welcome Crazycatlady.

Another bloody flashing smiley face on the clear blue opk today. Out of interest, I also tested using the cheapy opk, that looked like it was almost positive.

I'm feeling very nonchalant about this cycle. Body seems to be doing weird things and I can't be arsed to try and worry why.

Jem peanut butter is one of weaknesses. I could eat a whole jar in one go. Hence why I'm getting the size of a house

Hi cat greatxit came sooner, hopefully means you'll be fertile quicker!

I think I've found a pram I like, for the baby I don't have! Can't help looking for my niece/nephew bits then looking for what I want.

Hi indi I dunno where your post has gone but I swear I've read it! Hope things are going well, do you have a scan pic?

Good work vix. I did a 10k walk today - a bit unintentionally really, it was so lovely out I just kept going. Justifies another spoonful of maple pecan peanut butter maybe...

Welcome crazycatlady we've got a few cat people around these parts you'll fit right in.

Great blog update starky, I particularly enjoyed the phases of realisation mr starky went through :)

Hi, hope it's OK for me to join this thread?

I'm 37 (next month), stopped taking my pill at beginning of March and TTC #1.

Was expecting AF on 7th April but she turned up yesterday instead which upset my fertility app!

What a shit blue have a lovely time in Spain!

Last hangover for me was in December and it killed me! Hope it's bearable for you.

Done a bike ride and a walk into deal today. Glad I've started exercising even though I hate the hills!

Boo bluebird!!! Hope she exits quickly!

Sorry bluebird :( enjoy your hols

I take back what I said about delaying treats. I have discovered THIS
