Thanks parsnips :) x

Hb We DTD on -5,-3,-1 and +1 if that makes sense. Just eod - worked as took the pressure off. I think I read somewhere that it's a myth that you need to let sperm regenerate and actually several times a day would even be fine! How many DPO are you now?

Argh!!! Amazing Jupiter!!! :D Congratulations!!! Literally almost screamed in bed and woke my oh up. Had to leave the room!!

Orange I'm sorry about bfn. Really hope today is ok, thinking of you! 💐

Thanks everyone for asking about work. My boss was happy for me. I know the timing is pretty bad for the office (they've not had a pregnant technical person ever and now they have two at the same level...) But he was very lovely, which I should have expected tbh! :)

Argh, so happy now about bfp!!!

MrsC2017 · 14/03/2017 07:40

Omg Jupiter that's amazing!! Congratulations Grin

Sorry for the BFN orange Flowers

HeyJupiter · 14/03/2017 07:26

mummy symptom wise... everything you'd expect pre-AF! Breasts tender (normal for me), cramping, emotional. No cm to speak of. The only difference from a normal cycle is that I had cramping on 9DPO that felt more focused to my left side. But also that might have been wind. Still having period pains... that's why won't relax and enjoy this until after AF due date has passed. Feeling different to last cycle sounds promising! Good luck!!

Mummyme87 · 14/03/2017 07:21

We used lube twice over FW BD sessions... we will see though with this out of sync cycle.
Did you have any symptoms jupiter?

7DPO here. Nothing really to say. Not noticed any CM.. checked this morning any that is there is clear, occasional twinges in my boobs and had a bit of pelvic discomfort a few days ago.. that's it. Very different to last cycle

HbH04 · 14/03/2017 07:16

OMG Jupiter

AMAZING NEWS!!! & probably even better cos you'd talked yourself out!!!! Gonna totally work the lube if this isn't my month!!!

Poor mummy , you've been up to your ears in vom recently, FX for s speeding recovery x

Tigger83 · 14/03/2017 07:15

We're 3 out of 3 positives for the lube now!

HeyJupiter · 14/03/2017 07:10

Or you can each have some! confused provided enough to last until menopause!

HeyJupiter · 14/03/2017 07:09

mummy used the lube three times across four x DTDs in fertile week. The power of lube! Once I'm sure this baby is sticking around I'll pass on my cupboard full to one lucky reader x

orangefolly · 14/03/2017 07:07

I'm getting some of that lube now, haha!

grumpy AB is due on Thursday, so I will just see what happens then. It was paperwhite on a FRER though, so not holding out much hope!

HeyJupiter · 14/03/2017 07:07

Thanks orange, so sorry about your BFN. Hope you're okay and so many good wishes for today - really hope it all goes okay Flowers x

Thanks laura, still in shock.. might not believe it until AF is officially late (due thurs/fri)

Mummyme87 · 14/03/2017 07:06

Sorry for BFN orange

TheGrumpySquirrel · 14/03/2017 07:06

Buzz has AF arrived yet???

Mummyme87 · 14/03/2017 07:05

So this was another lube baby!! Did you use it every time? In your FW?

No more child sick this morning but my stomach is feeling a bit delicate. Childminder has also been sick apparently

TheGrumpySquirrel · 14/03/2017 07:05

Sorry for the BFN orange Flowers when is AF due?

xlaura · 14/03/2017 07:02

Jupiter I can definitely see it without clicking on the picture too. Congratulations mummy to be..your pregnant!! 🎉

orangefolly · 14/03/2017 07:00

OMG Jupiter massive congratulations! I'm delighted for you.

It was a BFN for me I'm afraid.

HeyJupiter · 14/03/2017 06:56
