Don't leave the group @Rose! If you stay with us, I will try and be a little bit less of a misery Wink

DP has an interview up the road from my office right now so I am meeting him for lunch. Check out the place we are eating, it is 100% not advisable for my stupid PCOS but I'm shoving two fingers up to the bastard today

@Frazzle, yes I’m definitely still feeling like that, it’s so hard isn’t it. I have considered leaving the group because it’s making me more obsessive... when I should be focusing on other things... such as looking at houses... but then I have really started to care about everyone, and it’s lovely to watch everyone one by one getting preggers. I do think you will get there Frazzle, it’s just shit with your cycles. Mine are as regular as clockwork, but I don’t think it’s going to help me one little bit. xxx

Frazzlerock · 30/01/2019 10:36

@Rose I have no idea. My cycle will be as short or as long as it likes.
It gets me down so much. No more 'fertile' fluid.
I'm only on CD17 of 2nd cycle since MMC though so I should probably just learn to be patient. But it is hard. I think I am feeling very much like you were before (maybe still are) in that I feel left behind and feel very much like I will be the last one standing.
It makes me so angry that we are all told that unprotected sex leads to pregnancy when in fact it really doesn't. And even if it does it's pointless.
The thought of DP pulling the plug again on TTC fills me with absolute dread. So I feel like time is a luxury I really don't have, and that's without even thinking about my age.
@rather I don't think DP is grumpy about DTD, just depressed in general, and any talk about TTC just escalates things so I only really have you guys to moan at, which is why you get it all!

Aw I hope your pupster is okay. Poor little thing. It is for the best though!

@Dreamland, I'm sorry AF has arrived. Don't worry about the 26 day cycles, I'm on 26 too. Huge positive that you don't have to wait for ages... sending hugs xxx

@edidxb gosh your job is so tough. I can't believe anyone would support that. I don't understand how you do it....

@kinsters what a nice surprise! timing looks great too. Fx'd x

@rose that's really tough! What does he do (if you can say?) It sounds like it's impossible to schedule any kind of bd with his schedule...

@frazzle glad the spotting has stopped. I'm sorry your DP has been grumpy about dtd, what is their problem...!! It will be sods law though that you don't conceive on the month where you BD every other day then the month you hardly do, you conceive.... keep positive!!!

My puppy went to the vets this morning for the snip... sat by the phone waiting for them to call me. Poor little thing :(

Rose68 · 30/01/2019 10:23

That was meant to say, do you still have ewcm?

Rose68 · 30/01/2019 10:22

@Frazzle sorry you are feeling miserable, lets all be miserable together 😩 Do you know what will happen next? How long it will take for your body to sort itself out, or is it just a waiting game? Do you still have Sorry for so many questions. x

Frazzlerock · 30/01/2019 09:41

Oh @InDreamland I'm so sorry Sad

@Kinsters good news! And timing looks great too!

@edidxb that is a rough day. It must be so emotionally draining Sad and please don't apologise!

I am still bloody miserable and waiting for ovulation AGAIN. DP seems tired and depressed and uninterested in sex the last couple of days so ovulating would be pointless anyway.

Last cycle we BDd every other day until after ovulation, this time we have three of four days gap. I can't even say anything as that will make him feel even more shit and then we'll be even less likely to catch my bastard elusive egg. My spotting seems to have stopped, though I will try and see GP tomorrow.

my temp this morning is as boring as a boring thing. Though I will post it anyway...

@Twittlebee I read your woodland thread last, it’s totally crazy! Let us know how you get on with it.

@InDreamland I’m sorry about AF, it’s shit isn’t it. I have just over a week until my AF arrives. My cycles have been 26 days since having my first DS, before that they were 28 days, but I was mostly on the pill so it’s hard to tell. But 26 days is still okay, and I definitely conceived DS2 on a 26 day cycle.

@Kinsters yay for ovulating! We are almost dpo sisters, I am 4 dpo today.

DH came home last night at 11:30pm and is going away again in an hours time. 😬

Kinsters · 30/01/2019 08:10

Sorry AF arrived InDreamland

I've got short 26 day cycles as well, actually they're sometimes 24 days. I do worry about it sometimes but take the positive that at least I don't have to wait too long to have another try. Hard to see positives on CD1 though.

InDreamland · 30/01/2019 07:47

I'm out this month. AF started this morning Sad. Another 26 day cycle. Think the second mc un November has shortened my cycles Confused

BettySwoll0cks · 30/01/2019 07:03

I'm going to WFH today; I've lost my voice and I'm coughing like a barking seal. It's not v attractive. But hey, check out my wacky chart!! Something about being ill, switching thermometers after about 5 days, getting woken up at all hours of the night. No wonder I can't have a stable pregnancy!

Kinsters · 30/01/2019 05:32

edidxb your job sounds so so tough and demanding. I don't see how using violence and support can go together at all! Some people!

As for me, I ovulated! And have gone straight to 5dpo which is nice. Timing not the best but I'll still hold out a bit of hope. I'm surprised my temp wasn't lower this morning. One of my cats decided to sleep in my bed last night and I swear she turns to concrete when she's sleeping which makes it really difficult to move the duvet when it gets cold so I woke up freezing!

I love that I've started a convos about BJs!!oh the irony as my DH says I've forgotten what they are!! 😂😂😂

Rose68 · 29/01/2019 17:56

@edidxb, don’t apologise, that’s why we are here. And as for supporting a child using violence.... words fail me. How an earth do you cope with that kind of attitude!

Re bj’s we usually do this a bit before dtd, but not recently, not since ttc.

edidxb · 29/01/2019 16:56

@tigsyboo - amazing news. Hope it goes well now at court.
@Frazzlerock - I both can and can't believe the customer support from Flo. Thankfully I'm not using them but if I was I wouldn't be now. Good work Svetlana.

I have had such a tough work day - I do apologise - I think I say that a lot, but it is so so draining. Another one coming up tomorrow where I have to meet parents to do with a fight today. In inspection week. And I already know as they told me on the phone that they support their child using violence as that's how to solve an issue. Honestly.....
@ratherbe it was just an interview with the inspectors, not for a job. It was tough, but I think OK as a whole.

I went to acupuncture tonight though so hoping it is making me calmer for tomorrow!!!

DH and I have not Bjed for quite some time in the whole TTC journey......

Kinsters · 29/01/2019 13:59

Frazzle apparently it affects motility 🤷‍♀️ although I just read a bit more about it and apparently its only really something to worry about if the guys got low sperm count anyway and if there's a high concentration of saliva (the journal article talks about using it as a lubricant).

Those dresses look gorgeous!

Frazzlerock · 29/01/2019 13:08

Thank you @Twittle! I am choosing my bits now, although I've no idea what a lot of the options are. I might have to contact them directly for help. But what a great find!

TwittleBee · 29/01/2019 12:53

Frazzle - this was the website where they can custom make you a wedding dress from £150
www.honeypieboutique.co.uk/

They do a lot of tea-length style dresses there. Might not be good for you but thought I would share it with you as I finally remembered what they were called!

Frazzlerock · 29/01/2019 11:56

I didn't know that about spit! We usually start with oral too! For both of us - So many bloody factors that jeopardise conception. How the fuck does anyone get pregnant?

OP posts:
Kinsters · 29/01/2019 11:55

Ohh haha yeah, a full blow job would be worse for conception than a bit of spit!

tigsyboo · 29/01/2019 11:51

No that's not the bj thing... DH wants a 'full' BJ and I've told him not a chance until I tell him!! Lol

Frazzlerock · 29/01/2019 11:40

@Rose yeah I think an egg can try to pop out but if it tries to pop out of a follicle with a cyst on it, it can't. At least, that is my understanding of it. I've not experienced this with temping before though. Not with all other signs blatantly pointing to ovulation.
I don't know if I get ov pain or not. I get the odd twinge at times but doesn't seem to sync with ovulation as far as I can tell. I still record it though. Actually, I've just checked last cycle on FF and I did have a twinge right at ovulation (CD32 ). But I also got it on CD12 and 13 Confused

OP posts:
Kinsters · 29/01/2019 11:28

Oo yeah now you mention bjs tigsy is not doing it because of how supposedly sperm motility is affected by spit? We pretty much always start with a bj although I'd mentioned the spit thing to DH so last time he wiped the spit off beforehand, idk if that would help? Sorry for the tmi!

tigsyboo · 29/01/2019 11:25

OMG I'm glad it's not just my DH that is such a fool!! He says 'it's nothing to do with science!' And all this temping just confuses the issue!
He doesn't know what the temping means- and I've given up talking to him about it
All he knows is that from Sunday we are DTD every other day until I say I want it 2 days in a row, and not to even consider asking for a Blowjob until I offer it!! 😂😂
