@purplestar go go go!!!!! 😂
And I totally force it sometimes!! Haha Last month I swear I woke him up just to try get him to DTD, even when he is in the least sexy mood EVER, I know exactly what I need to do to make him stand tall and once it's up there well... it's not really forcing any more is it! 😂😂😂
Can I ask your advice? You said you are temping - can I ask what thermometer you use and do you have any tips for doing it right? I bought one that arrived today off Amazon, it's to 2 decimal places but I tested it 3 times this evening one after the other and they were all slightly different readings. Is that normal?? Is there a certain way to put it in your mouth?
Also does it matter if you wake up a bit and go back to sleep? My DH leaves before my alarm goes off so sometimes I sort of half wake up... I assume you have to do it immediately on waking?

@flapjackered get on those holiday vibes!!! Lick the gelato off him if you have to!!! 😁😁😁 xxx

FlapJackered · 14/08/2018 21:41

😂 @Delilah7 on your marks get set! ...DTD as many times as you can in the next 24hrs ...and GO! 😂 🏇🏼🏇🏼🏇🏼🏇🏼

Doesn't help I am SO bloated after too much gelato & pasta. It's not a great seduction tool!

@purplestar9 - just read your post about the cyst, that is great news that it wasn't anything serious and that they were able to drain it there and then, I hope it's not too sore?

@CrystalBlaze acht sorry for the bfn but it is early so you're not out yet. 🤞🏻

Thanks @Delilah7 Flowers

I know it's very early so I'm keeping positive for now. Going to TRY and resist testing again before the weekend/AF shows

Delilah7 · 14/08/2018 21:34

@purplestar9 less typing more bucking ...

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Delilah7 · 14/08/2018 21:33

@CrystalBlaze doesn't mean it's true. I had a BFN either a week or a few days before my BFP so it can be false. Keep positive darling ❤️

purplestar9 · 14/08/2018 21:33

@Delilah7 🤣🤣😂
No words needed!

CrystalBlaze · 14/08/2018 21:29

Thanks @Delilah7 and @Chivari. It was too early and I knew it - AF not even due till Friday. Couldn't resist though.

Chivari · 14/08/2018 21:22

Sorry to hear that @CrystalBlaze 😕 as @Delilah7 said maybe you tested too early? I tested Saturday (3 days ago) and it was a massive BFN but then tested BFP today. Is AF due yet?

Delilah7 · 14/08/2018 21:14

@CrystalBlaze I'm sorry Hun, any chance you took one too early??? Keep positive. You can get a false BFN. Fingers crossed 🤞🏼

CrystalBlaze · 14/08/2018 21:12

You are all brilliant and hilarious. I tested, bfn as expected BECAUSE I AM AN IDIOT. Got a spare test now though Wink

Delilah7 · 14/08/2018 21:09

@FlapJackered @purplestar9 TEAM COWGIRL GO!!!!
Get ready ladies to ride like never before 😂😂😂 I'm cracking up writing this! Go have a wonderful evening. We deserve some happiness after a lovely day on this thread 😍😍 so much love for you all xxxxx

Chivari · 14/08/2018 21:06

Thanks @FlapJackered and @Crossfitgirl 😘😘

purplestar9 · 14/08/2018 21:06

So much going on! Congrats to all those with BFP's! It's so exciting!!
Still need to try and persuade DH to DTD tonight as I believe I'm ovulating late but he's so far not feeling it.. challenge accepted! (Without forcing him obviously!)
Happy vibes all round! Such a positive thread, I love it!

FlapJackered · 14/08/2018 21:02
