Just told DH he is on a new schedule - every night til I ovulate and looked horrified . Am on day 9 and think might ovulate on Thursday / Friday so he should be able to cope with that.

Welcome newbies. Nice to see you on here. Hope you have got enough cake and wine that is being passed round.

EdgarAllenPoo · 03/11/2009 17:30

i'm on cycle day ....(counts on fingers) 3

Hi all, is there a comfy seat at the back I can occupy?

TeaFan TTC#1 Cycle 7 UCL 29-32 CD1

Can't believe it is cycle 7 for us now, I know that isn't long in the scheme of things but I waited so long to be where I wan't to be in my career, on the property ladder, financially secure etc etc that I already feel like i've been waiting for ages DP is getting fed up too, we've bought those Wellman & Wellwoman supplements now to see if that will help. Am also going to go back to Clearblue OPKs this month and am considering buying preseed.

I hope you ladies don't mind me having a moan, i'm such a together lady in every other way but TTC has a way of driving you nuts! I cried about it for the first time this month and DP was a bit Can't fault him though, he is very supportive and I am lucky to have him.

Thanks mabh

mabh · 03/11/2009 14:28

Not dumb at all poppy I've been trying to explain it to brainy DH for weeks...

You can only actually conceive if there is an ovum waiting, ie. you've ovulated in the last few hours. The reason it's your fertile 'week' is that sperm can live for several days, so this week's sperm might fertilise Saturday's egg, if you see what I mean. So go to it girl .

PoppyIsApain · 03/11/2009 12:59

Dumb question alert, In the fertile week can you concieve or do you really only have a chance when ovulating? im abit confused now,a chart i did said i was fertile from monday to friday and due to ovulate saturday, does this sound about right? Also i did my stats abit wrong, im on CD 10
Thanks

ToffeeMuser · 03/11/2009 12:28

Hi all, just updating the list with me removed. Will jump back on when AF arrives properly and I can say I'm CD1. The odd spotting has stopped and AF has not yet turned up, but I expect she will.

nymph a bigger seat because I have eaten to many Unsuitable Foods (Betty's, anyone?) or because I have spent too much time at Fenwick's smellies department? I used to live there, and go back regularly for a shopping fix.

Hello big muther. Just copy and paste the existing stats onto your message, and add yourself. Support offered, support needed!

nymphadora · 03/11/2009 09:56

Still lurking but someone asked about OPK sticks- Yes they do have to be a really strong line (sorry )

Mabh- we have just come back from York it was lovely - V good shopping , better get a bigger seat on the bus

mabh · 03/11/2009 09:50

I've already had a caffeinated coffee and ordered a Clear Blue fertility monitor this am. Hubbie will think I'm mental, but then he doesn't believe I'm as old as I am (probably a compliment). Off for a long weekend in York this Friday and fully intend to eat lots of Unsuitable Foods!

FrenchLimeBlossom · 02/11/2009 22:19

Can i join this bus please?

FrenchLimeBlossom TTC1, Cycle 6 UCL 28 CD1

Good luck to everyone!

EdgarAllenPoo · 02/11/2009 22:06

hello ldies

am ttc#3, and have not a clue re: dates, as this cycle = 21 days, though normally 28

how do you know re: ov??

be patient, i'm sure that's a common newbie question.

ToffeeMuser · 02/11/2009 12:19

Ok. This spotting has been going on for 4 days with no sign of AF. I'm going to hop off the bus until things sort themselves out. I'll be back!

yellowmum84 · 02/11/2009 09:58

following my last message, do you need to have a really strong line for the ovulation stick to be positive??? anyone?? it's one of those cheap ones from the internet.

it's really faint the line, you can see it only in good light!

yellowmum84 · 02/11/2009 09:48

I think once or twice every 2 days would be enough to catch an egg queenmercury - but with 2 little ones already that might be more difficult!! (hey we are on the same cd)

i'm anxiously waiting for a positive on my ovulation sticks and today got a very faint line, not sure if that means anything or not.

anyway todays stats are....

QueenMercury · 02/11/2009 08:07

I have been BD all weekend and will continue to do so all week(by the way,how much BD is too much or too little in your opinion all these websites are so conflicting?), bought the wee sticks,I've got everything crossed that I conceive in the next few days. It's my first cycle trying and I'm so impatient so is DP.

Good luck to everyone else on the bus

ToffeeMuser · 01/11/2009 23:04

I'm going for a more Bonfire Night themed name as well. My Halloween was fab, went to a party and drank lots of punch. Am back home now (was away visiting a friend) and looking forward to AF arriving and leaving and the resuming of baby making attempts. Oh yes.

Did another test this evening as figured there's nothing like testing to make AF arrive. Still BFN. Mostly I'm freaking out that this long spotting lead in to AF is a sign that something is wrong with my fertility!

KayloFireworks · 01/11/2009 22:45

Ahhh, Kaylo's boring - especially with bonfire night approaches....

So here's my new name :0

Kaylo · 01/11/2009 22:35

Hello there - did everyone have a nice Halloween??

I'm back to just Kaylo now
