We were definitely due some BFPs!!! Congrats wanting!!

Whoa - this is fantastic! Congratulations Wanting!!! see? Twice was definitely enough!!

Anybody want to change the thread name?

Oh wow wanting congrats! Thats fantastic

So that's three in two days?!! Well we did say we needed BFP s

OMG another one! Congratulations wanting!!!! So happy for you all

Congrats mrs!!

Congratulations mrsg how exciting 😊

So I finally tested...BFP! Still shaking. I did 2 tests just to be sure. Clear blue says 1-2 weeks and FRER is quite clear too. Not a squinter! I'm absolutely delighted.

I really hope all you ladies get your BFPs soon, you all deserve it so much. It's been wonderful to be a part of such a supportive group.

Woohoo mrsg! Congrats!!!

Kav - sometimes I think a state of total relaxation is the key. It's just reaching that state that can be tricky. Very happy for you :)

Music - ha ha, been there. I'm always making weird recipes or eating strange food on repeat and OH is just like "for baby making?" And I'm like, yep! This is our lives now .

I think I probably was more relaxed this cycle skipper - DH got a job after so long out of work, which had been stressing the crap out of me - and I calmed down a bit in my new job. As for TTC - after so many cycles of trying it wasn't at the forefront of my brain 100% of the day any more, and I think knowing I'd booked up to chat about fertility treatment helped me. Add to that a lovely hour of reflexology around the time I was due to implant - seriously recommend it, I was dozing off on the table! - and I think I was as chilled about TTC as I was ever seriously going to get.

I'll absolutely stay around Jam - at the moment I'd feel like an impostor on the grad thread anyway!!! Much comfier here for now _ thank you though

I had an entertaining evening yesterday. Was cutting up my pineapple (kwik!) and accidentally sliced my finger with a very sharp knife. Then proceeded to have to lie on the floor for half an hour because I felt sick and like I was about to faint while DH rushed around me with tissues and plasters. Then afterwards he was like - what is this new obsession you have with pineapple anyway - and I told him and he burst out laughing! Fortunately I was able to see the funny side by this point...

Thank you everyone!

Only cycle 2 off the pill! Ovulated on CD11, DTD on 5,8,10 & 11. We were going to do SMEP but got my positive OPK on CD10 so we hadn't had much DTD in before that.

Ironically we were originally not going to TTC till after the new year to avoid an August baby... EDD if all is well would be August 11th but we're both past caring now!

Hurrah!! Another one!!! Congratulations mrsg am so chuffed for you. What cycle are you on, did you do anything different?

Glad to hear everything going well kav please stick around and let us know how you are getting on with scans and things!

Mouse my parents know as I told my mum when we started trying last year. I kind of wish I hadn't but I think I would have had more comments and pressure to start if I hadn't. I love my Mum but she's such a blabber mouth! She cannot keep things to herself. There's no way I could tell her about DH morphology. She said to me the other day Don't be stressed... perfectly good advise but love how it's assumed that it's the woman's fault for being stressed?! Anyway hope your mum will be a support and that she won't be waiting long

Kav / MrsG - would you say you felt more relaxed on your current cycles? I do sometimes think it seems to happen when people least expect it.

Congratulations mrsg!!
More brilliant news!

At this rate of going thread 21 will need to change names to 'the one where we all got bfps'

Hee - I guess it IS like buses after all!! Congratulations MrsG!!!!! feels surreal, doesn't it??

Btw thank you all SO much for the congrats here. All I want to do is squeeee out loud and having to shut up at work would have been 10 x harder without being able to celebrate here. Boobs increasingly tender and no AF this morning, so staying positive:-)

Which cycle was it for you and did you do anything different? So happy for you

I think by the rule of threes that means we should be having another BFP soon! Who's up?
