May BFP Bus

I keep reading about people avoiding conceiving now because of having a January baby - I'd never realised that was a known practice!

lucy we're trying a gentle blue sway too although I like the idea of a tribe of girls and we have proudly tested the ph of our cervical mucus and sperm. The lady at DH's work asked him what he needed it for and he told her!

It all sounds like total rubbish to me but I'm not going to stop him whilst he's doubling his efforts haha! He just keeps saying that if we have a girl then I'll just end up buying it a pony and those cost money- he doesn't believe that a boy would ever want a pony lol. Yeah two boys would be lovely!

Haha never read that before!! Oh that's a nice bonus in his madness then!! Yeah happy and healthy is the best approach definitely. I have a DS so another boy would be very good practically but if we have a girl it will be nice to have a go at something different so I'm happy either way!

Yeah you've summed me up there! I'm not really bothered so long as it's healthy- would like at least one of each really so it doesn't matter to me which way around they are :) he's currently refusing to eat any dairy, nuts or brown bread... The added bonus is that he has read that if I orgasm before him then it also produces boys so I'm not complaining too much ;)

Haha yeah I was exactly the same. I came off the pill after being on for about 11 years and I remember nothing about my cycles other than absolute horror!! Aw that's nice for him though! Are you both hoping for a boy?!

I'm not sure Sunny as I've been on some form of BC for about 8/9 years and I really can't remember what they were like before then (and I suppose at 15 you're really not bothered when it happens, just that it hurts haha)

I'm determined not to cave but I do already have tests- my OH isn't helping by googling when to ovulation test and how to conceive a boy haha. Think he's more excited than me!!

Sounds grim everdeen! It might have been something else I bought then because it didn't have an applicator!

How long were your cycles before having the coil Lucy? Saturday testing sounds good. I planned to wait until Saturday last time but then caved in the middle of the night on the Thursday!

Yeah I'm really pleased she has turned up (for the first time IN MY LIFE)

By my calculations I would be CD35 on the 14th May which is the nearest Saturday that wouldn't be too early. Saturdays make things easier as I won't be working so can test at leisure. Hopefully by then I won't be totally bonkers/on my period and should stand a chance of a decent BFP! How long I actually hold out is a completely different matter...

Pressed sounds like it does its job then! May have to invest as our usual KY has been banished to the bathroom now haha!

No it's reeeeeeally thin! You kind of insert it with a tampon applicator type thing, but it went everywhere 'afterwards'!

Everdene I bought some of that but got my BFP before we could use it. Is it really thick?!?! Hahah! Good luck with all the DTD. We will do every other day for a week too when the time comes!!

I tried Preseed (fertility lubricant) last night, it was pretty, er, messy!

My Fertility Friend app is showing an earlier FW to my Clue app window so we are going to try to DTD every couple of days this week - hope there's no chafing

Welcome Lucy!

Welcome Lucy. Good news AF has come back so quickly. I'm officially CD1 now so ETD 22nd May ish I think! When will you be testing Lucy?

Can I join?

Lucy

TTC #1
Cycle 1
CD1

Coil removed Thursday last week and AF has appeared like you would not believe this morning! Reassuring really as I've not had a period of any description whilst the coil was in for the last three years (or the three years before that when I had the implant!!)

Fingers crossed for lots of May BFPs!!!!

Nothing much here either, I'm still waiting for AF and then we will be on cycle 1.

I'm on CD7 so nothing yet either!

Hi all newcomers I've had a busy week with my birthday and lots going on at work. Only cd10 here so nothing to report. Went out for s meal last night for birthday and really over indulged will restart the diet tomorrow!

Hi guys! Just checking in. CD15 here and nothing to report. On Angus castus this month which will hopefully sort my uber-long cycles. Hi Giraffes, sorry to see you here and Hi to all newbies!

Welcome BoBo!

I haven't got anything much to report - have started having cough syrup as recommended on a TTC video I saw saying it thins cervical mucus!

BFPs:
None.... yet!

I'm doing the same giraffe loads of pate and stinky cheese while I can. I conceived my two really quickly to but my eggs are older now so we'll see.

I'm still spotting after having my coil out so I'm waiting for that to stop (hopefully before ovulation or I'm out this month)

Just one cycle with dd1, second cycle with mc twins, third cycle (but one was anovulatory) with dd2. My eggs are getting older and more shrivelled I think.

So the long 2 week wait is about to begin - ETD for the list is 30th April! Come on BFP!!

Sorry that you're feeling depressed, hopefully this will be your BFP cycle!!

How long did it take you with your other pregnancies Giraffe?
