Jeeze our foreplay is a quick kiss and pass me the lube hahaha!!! 2hrs wow.
We were like that when we first got together, my poor hubby, I'm not like that anymore. He's younger than me too so is defo got loads of stamina than i have effort lol.

I can't believe you are nearly at your TWW! 🙈

candycrush2298 · 25/07/2020 16:20

@Kaybobx noooooo usually like its a long foreplay and then like 20 minutes lol but if we do it very often hubbys stamina increases and he can for way longer making it to like 2 hours (including foreplay lol) hell no would be dead if it was 2 hours straight sex whahahah!!!

I know was going to be so mad if I didn't get it whahaha!! My opks don't look much different to yesterday's so going with the monitor that today is peak lol. Now we just have to see if my temps start rising soooo interesting.

Ooooh sounds like it could be tricky hope she has appointments that work for you. Think this could be really good.

Well done on temping for 3 days in a row whoohoo!!!

Glad your have your peak on the monitor!! Woohoo.

I have a consultation on Monday about the acupuncture so will keep you all posted. I work full time and have a toddler so not sure when i will get time but shall she whats offered.

Ive managed to temp 3 days in a row too go me!

candycrush2298 · 25/07/2020 15:56

@snapple21 hahaha I want too but sheesh either me or my hubby will be will be f#ck this sh#t I cant.

@Boc86 that's great did you have a good holiday?

@Elakiya yeah that was before I knew the every other day would land the day before peak. My hubby or I won't make it an extra day. I am just doing to do it today and skip tomorrow. I have a high sex drive but even I have limits lol!!! The more often we do it the longer hubbys stamina lasts and when we start pushing 2 hours I get tired 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Elakiya · 25/07/2020 15:42

@candycrush2298 if we go by the sperm meets egg thing you should be doing today and tomorrow and then skipping a day and then doing it again. I can’t believe you’re on your two week wait from tomorrow that’s crazy!

@Boc86 ooo that’s interesting to hear. Why do you think it’s vile though? Can you not just blitz the seeds in a smoothie or something so you don’t taste it? I want to try it to see if it gives me some egg white cm

Boc86 · 25/07/2020 13:55

I’m seed cycling @Elakiya it’s so vile! But I do think it bought my ov forward last month

@candycrush2298 all good ta been on holiday then worked yesterday, oh yaaaaaay for peak day!! Good luck!

snapple21 · 25/07/2020 13:13

@candycrush2298 you can do it! Do it today and tomorrow :)

candycrush2298 · 25/07/2020 08:22

Its today! Its today!! Question hubby and I BD'd yesterday so would you BD today or tomorrow because I would love to do today and tomorrow but I dont think either of us can go full steam for 3 days in a row 😂😂😂

candycrush2298 · 25/07/2020 08:21

@snapple21 oh ok is that because you have a longer cycle? It's weird how does the monitor know that vecauee when I set mine up I never asked the usual questions like cycle length etc lol.

Glad to hear AF is gone. Always uplifting when she is out the way.

OP posts:
snapple21 · 25/07/2020 00:19

@candycrush2298 yep af finished. Using my monitor and temping. I think it won't ask me for a test until day 10 of my cycle!

candycrush2298 · 24/07/2020 20:51

@ReginaaPhalange that's fair enough and sounds like a good plan. At least you have a plan of action in place which is fab.

7dpo and you keeping busy well done!! Your will power is what I aspire to be one day when I'm big haha.

Well done glad to hear you OK. Take care and keep us updated xx

@Kaybobx yum!!! Feeding the soul whilst on AF always works for me 🤣🤣

Yay that is awesome!!! Love it when she's finished!!

Ooooooh I have actually read about it, you have to go quite often isnt it like once a week or something and its not a quick fix like it can take a few months if I understood what I read correctly??? I am really keen to see if this is going to help you. Please let us know once you have had your first session.

@candycrush2298 Hey! Been reading your messages allday but literally dont get time to jump in whist at work. We've just been out for food, oh my god im stuffed.

AF will be gone tomorrow. Barley anything today yay!!

I have the next new thing to try! So a lad at works mum does acupuncture, he gave me her number and i had a chat with her today about acupuncture for fertility. Apparently its quite effective, going to book in soon once the madness at work dies down

ReginaaPhalange · 24/07/2020 20:34

@candycrush2298 hey hun. Decided not to go for the scan and the GP said it wouldn't change things at this stage. We agreed for a scan this time next year if I'm not pregnant or one when I'm pregnant.

Been very quiet this week as 7DPO. Trying to keep my mind busy so been working loads then having early nights!

Hope everyone is well xxx

candycrush2298 · 24/07/2020 20:29

@mummyjojo19 not sure what works best for you but when AF starts I have a good cry through a tantrum to myself about how unfair life is and then eat my favourite things usually cake 😅 and then move on. But whatever works for you let it all out and then try again.

@Elakiya lol me too!! I would not be able to work with one screen. I have a laptop that hooks up to two screens, wireless mouse and keyboard along with a printer lol so going outside won't work but I can look out there with longing.

I am not sure what I am trying next cycle maybe the ava bracelet or temp drop but I don't want to spend more money hahah. So yes this is our cycle for all us girls!!! We got this!!

@snapple21 how you doing is AF all gone? How long do you have to wait before you can start testing with the monitor? When do you start using OPKs?

@ReginaaPhalange how did the scan go? Are you OK?

@Kaybobx how's it going? AF still being a b#tch?

@PinkRoseFlower @littletandme @Boc86 @indecisivewoman81 @TTCandImpatient @PabsyPops you all OK?

OP posts:
Elakiya · 24/07/2020 19:38

@candycrush2298 I need a dual screen so can’t do that 😂😅 wish I could lol!

I am going to try seed cycling if this cycle goes badly. Fingers crossed this is our cycle though.

mummyjojo19 · 24/07/2020 17:17

Yes just going to wait for af now and start again xx

candycrush2298 · 24/07/2020 17:10

@mummyjojo19 so sorry on another bfn. Strange with all the symptoms you been having our bodies just love to play tricks on us... so very annoying.

@Elakiya I know I keep looking outside and I am like cant I just move everything out there lol!!!

Ahhh how cute!!! Have fun shopping 🛍

OP posts:
Elakiya · 24/07/2020 16:39

@candycrush2298 We're having one on Sunday. Weather has been so good lately. Makes working from home near impossible lol!

It's my nephews birthday and I tend to buy both kids. My niece has specifically requested clothes so need to pop into some shops to see if I can find anything nice.

mummyjojo19 · 24/07/2020 16:09

Well ladies still no sign of af so far but bfn this owning so think I am out for this month good luck lovelies I will continue to follow to see your updates xxx

candycrush2298 · 24/07/2020 14:24

@Elakiya oh how lovely. I enjoy baking and think it will be loads of fun. Sounds like a great weekend planned.

I am not sure what we doing yet. They weather is great here by me so might have a barbecue tonight and then I dont know lol!! I need a new rug for my lounge so might do some shopping haha.

Obviously there will be BD'ng involved 🤣🤣🤣

Elakiya · 24/07/2020 14:11

@candycrush2298 Thanks hun :). Anyway positive thoughts again. Girls would be good to though, I love my niece she's 10 and she likes to tell me I am her best friend lol. We make cakes and cookies together. We're going to try apple crumble this weekend. So excited :D

candycrush2298 · 24/07/2020 12:58

@Elakiya ahhhh no hun that is so rough so sorry xx

The positive things to look at though is that you have a wonderful husband and are trying to start a family. He obviously loves you, your future children will love you. I truly hope you find the power within to love you as much as they do. You got this girl!

Elakiya · 24/07/2020 12:53

@candycrush2298 No it hasn't :( because deep inside I know. Also the extensions look super weird as the texture is very different.

I have had a lot insecurities growing up, and honestly growing up indian household never helps with insecurities. It always makes it a lot lot worse as family can be very blunt.

candycrush2298 · 24/07/2020 12:22

@Elakiya ahhhhh so sorry to hear about your confidence, do you feel like your confidence is higher now that you use extensions?

4 boys hahahah ahhhh I see you want them momma boys lol!!! That would be amazing.

OP posts:
Elakiya · 24/07/2020 12:17

@candycrush2298 I want a boy. I've struggled a lot with self confidence and issues about my appearance (especially with the hair loss due to PCOS and yo-yo dieting). I genuinely believe guys have less issues than us so want 4 boys as I think they'll all be mummy's boys :P
