@candycrush2298 Your husband sounds like me this is usually how ours go :
Me : go out and by it like the day before.
Me (in the evening): I have a present for you for tomorrow.
Hubby: Oh really, what is it?
Me: Nope

2 hours later
Me: Do you want to know what it is?
Hubby: urmmm okay
Me: Okay I'll get it out but you can't open it

10 Minutes later
Me: Open it open it
Hubby: urmm... okay
Hubby opens present

Me: Listing all the other things I was potentially going to buy him before I settled on this.

Also we have a joint account, I use his credit cards and I use his amazon account therefore I can't really get away with much. But that's usually what happens when I do. I am pretty useless.

@Kaybobx me too but I won't be because whatever if it is I am sure I will like it. I am trying to think of what I have mentioned I wanted over the last few months weeks and I just cant think of what it is lol.
Oh well I will let you all know on Sunday hahaha (but think I will get it before then because hubby is terrible at keeping secrets when he has it in his hands he can't help but get too excited to give it hahaha)

@Elakiya lol I love your thinking!! Full insemination month 🤣🤣🤣 hey it may just work you never know.

OP posts:
Elakiya · 07/09/2020 10:21

@Kaybobx you bet we're getting PG. I am not BD-ing anymore. If I am not PG cycle, it's going to be a full insemination cycle next month lol!

@candycrush2298 Fair enough.

@Kaybobx sorry just seen the previous messages you testing Sunday ooooh can't even wait.

@Elakiya yep sure am hahahahaha because I want my life to be easier I don't like waking up at 5am 7 days a week and if I wake up a bit before 5 I get so mad at myself knowing my temp isn't 100% accurate I am really anal about doing things exactly as it should be 🤣🤣🤣 its a terrible trait of mine lol so tempdrop will be less stressful and no it only temps 🤣🤣

OP posts:
Elakiya · 07/09/2020 10:10

@candycrush2298 You're hoping for that temp drop aren't you but you're like the most amazing out of all of us at taking temperatures why do you want a temp drop? Does it do more than BBT?

candycrush2298 · 07/09/2020 10:10

@Kaybobx I am a hopeless liar and he will know I know what it is if I feign surprise when he gives it to me lol!! I just hope its a temp drop hahaha but whatever it is I will be happy hahaha.

Ooooh I like your attitude yes!!! You will both be pg this month. When are you testing?

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 07/09/2020 10:00

@candycrush2298 oooooo i hope its something special. I would of absolutely had a look at what it is hahaha!!

@Elakiya haha well you won't be needing it, we're getting pregnant this month, we've BD too much not to!

candycrush2298 · 07/09/2020 09:56

@Elakiya well I am hopeful you are successful this cycle and you won't need to try to temp again!!!! But I hear what you saying lol!!

Yes our sample size might be small but 25% success rate would be ideal!!! Then 25% second cycle etc until we reach a 100% succes rate on it haha.

Guys, went onto hubbys email to forward the government confirmation of his negative test to confirm I can return to the office this week and I saw a Royal Mail confirmation about a delivery to your "chosen post office" oooh I went out of his emails as I dont want to blow whatever he has planned but hoping its my birthday gift hahaaha!!! I normally don't even care about gifts as we spoil each a lot during the year that Christmas, anniversary and birthday gifts are usually just something small but I am now curious 🤣🤣

@Kaybobx I tried it for 10/12 days remember when I kept fudging my results because they looked weird lol!

NamechangeTTC · 07/09/2020 09:55

Ooh matchy matchy @Kaybobx

I think sun is too early for me but I’m going for Mexican food and don’t want to overdo the tequila.

Kaybobx · 07/09/2020 09:52

@NamechangeTTC I'm with you at 3dpo and will test Sunday too!

@Elakiya have you tried BBT charting? I didn't think I'd be any good at it but my brain is literally programmed now. It helps me get through my cycles so much.

NamechangeTTC · 07/09/2020 09:51

I’m just on progesterone symptoms now bloody body

Elakiya · 07/09/2020 09:48

@candycrush2298 I should really do a whole month before I complain that its not working for me lol.

Yh at least a 25% success rate would be amazing (eventhough the sample size is only 4 lol!)

candycrush2298 · 07/09/2020 09:36

@NamechangeTTC sounds absolutely lovely, enjoy it xx

@Elakiya aww I know its so tough for you to BBT. It really does answer a lot of questions but at least you are doing what are able to do which is a lot!!

Awww I really hope so, only a few more days and we will know for you xx

YES we need at least one soy baby from the first round of soy takers!!! We have 3 so I would like all 3 to be bfps but at least one would be so awesome!!

OP posts:
Elakiya · 07/09/2020 09:32

@candycrush2298 I wish I could BBT some of my questions would easily be answered if I did that. 😞🤦🏾‍♀️

Fingers crossed for us giving our mums the best birthday present ever.

And fingers crossed that Soy gives this thread at least one BFP. 😁

NamechangeTTC · 07/09/2020 09:26

Argyll! Down to near Campbeltown and probably gigha with maybe a wee Arran trip. Just a whistle stop tour. I’m working the Monday so just a few days

@Elakiya I am not sure I mean its definitely possible that you could be low on progesterone. No idea what the exercise bleeding is from. Its weird isn't it. I do think you would have a short luteal phase or a chemical if it was low progesterone but maybe not always? I mean you could try progesterone cream to see if it makes any difference?? No harm to it. Its just cream.

Awww that would be an amazing birthday gift I hope you get to give it to her. My moms birthday on October 2nd and would love to give the same gift 💜💜

OP posts:
Elakiya · 07/09/2020 09:20

@candycrush2298 I wonder if the bleeding during exercise was an indication of low progesterone and wonder if that’s why I haven’t had any success? But then I at least should have had a chemical surely and even that has not happened. It’s my mums birthday in 2 weeks I would to tell her she’s having a grandchild 😞

@Elakiya you know how mean progesterone is and at 4dpo you wouldn't technically be pregnant yet so obviously your body is doing its normal thing at this point. I will keep looking for alternatives for you until AF actually shows up I refuse to believe it.

OP posts:
Elakiya · 07/09/2020 09:14

@candycrush2298 I could be anywhere between 4-6dpo 😂😂 app says 4dpo if we go by last surge

@NamechangeTTC I also think I am out this month. Have all my normal painful AF symptoms 😞

candycrush2298 · 07/09/2020 09:14

@NamechangeTTC its probably just the progesterone talking. Does it to me all the time.

Awesome well I will be waiting for Sunday then to see your test!!!

Awesome where you guys going?

OP posts:
NamechangeTTC · 07/09/2020 09:11

@candycrush2298 I’m 3dpo. Already have the gut feeling I’m out.

Oh for drunken lunch on Sunday at 9dpo so probably then. Then leaving it until nearer period. We go on holiday on the Tuesday at 11dpo.

@snapple21 great lets see what your temps do if they rise tomorrow we can assume today is ovulation for you but if it rises on Wednesday then we can assume tomorrow is ovulation. So excited to see everyone's charts!!! And tests when we get to that.

@NamechangeTTC glad you had a good weekend. At least you found your peaks and BD'd on those days so thats good.

What DPO is everyone? And when is everyone planning to test? So I can make a mental note hahah.

@ReginaaPhalange I think its only you and I are that aren't in our TWW.
