Well Lou he did say test results normal not actually me lol

As for winning baby bingo he said come back in a few months and he will do tests on dh. But he did say I need to calm down and not get stressed I just smiled politely and imagined my hands around his neck he's nice really well better than my last gp who got struck off, but that's another story!

Hello to everyone else and sex is so over rated. Dh is away overnight so at least I get a night off from the sex pest.

Tequila welcome. Five months is long enough. Sex is over rated.

Ice are you sure the doc thought you were normal. I suppose he might be the first. Sorry, its great news. Must be a weight off your shoulders. All you need now is for him to refer you somewhere so you can find out why you have yet to win a babbbbbyyyyy.

Thanks, Icedlemonmuffin - the name is a holday inspiration. We've brought back some tequila cream - something like baileys, but extra spices in it.

Got off the pill in January and this is my 5th cycle. Not much luck so far, but should not complain 5 cycles is not much by TTC standards... Trying for dc #1

Fairy, sorry about the MC

Am up for a sex pest - dh has improved, but wasn't really trying the last few months... Can you call 3 shags a month trying? Hardly... Shouldn't relly complain as I wasn't really initiating anything either.

Icedlemonmuffin · 18/05/2010 12:39

Well LouLou I'm normal ! Everything (about 15 different tests) normal he was very pleased with my cholesterol . He did say if I have any more funny turns to go back and he will send me for further 'investigations'.

Well back to the mountain of ironing!

Iceicemuffin I hope all goes well at docs. if they can't sort you out maybe dazza can.

BabyG how did it go. have you seen the doctor again?

Am liking my 90s inspired pop names.

UmBongo · 17/05/2010 20:21

I have mostly ditched the thermometer - just a couple of readings round egg laying time - but only if dh is either still asleep or already up! Did PO 1 S this month, as friend had given me some! Got a pos. So lassoed dh!

Don't worry about the hooch, Lou, its not really alcohol, that would be downing a bottle of voddy in one!!!

Have you tried stalking looking for polly on the antenatel threads?

Loujalou · 17/05/2010 08:28

Have ditched the thermometer and OPKs this month. Though I am pretty regular so know am about to lay an egg. TH is glad I gave up the thermometer as he found it all a bit weird.

Wonder how Pollypocket is now she has won her baby?

[Takes a bottle of hooch and downs it in one - surely its only lemonade]

UmBongo · 16/05/2010 23:20

Cheers, don't mind if I do!

No sex pest here either (which is why I am MNing at this time of night!!) Can I have Iceds dh when you have finished with him please Lou At this rate Dazza is going to get his nose put out!

I don't tell dh what date it is either - he probably works it out as he is not that thick, but I don't really want to run after him with a positive OPK and demand sex!

Ladybird10 · 16/05/2010 21:24

Umbongo theres plenty of hooch left, help yourself

I wouldn't mind if my dp was a sex pest, would probably be up duff by now if he was. Iced that did make me laugh about he knows the rules so fu*k off. lol
I can't tell my dp what dates are best as it puts him off and then tells me i only want sex for a baby, well yeah thats right but i like to make him think he is pushing all the right buttons and i also like SFF.

Fairy it's good that your being positive, it's a good way of looking at it, and its good to know you can conceive naturally.
Think i used the word good to many times there.
Hope this is your month.

Icedlemonmuffin · 16/05/2010 20:52

Me and dd walked the opposite way laughing and trying to pretend he wasn't with us lol

As for him being a sex pest, I told him the rules are between day 8 and day 20 so f*uck off !

Lou gives us your postcode he's yours!!

PMSL!!! I think it's guide ropes. Thank you. Yep I'm taking it easy & seeing how things go!

Loujalou · 16/05/2010 20:37

PMSL at him falling over though.

Loujalou · 16/05/2010 20:30

Sex pest - can you hire him out I want one of them.

Icedlemonmuffin · 16/05/2010 20:03

Fairy it's really good that your being positive but make sure you give yourslf time to grieve. I thought I was ok, tried really hard to be ok, but one day it all just hit me and knocked me off my feet. But hooray for silver linings.

On to more boring stuff spent today going round camping shops looking for a table before our camping trip at the end of the month. Highlight of my day was dh telling dd to be careful of the tent ropes (are they guide or guy ropes?) and then fell over it himself!! Me and dd couldn't help ourselves. Oh and dh has turned into a right sex pest which has peeed me off no end.

Talking about theory I should be shagging tonight.... Eaten too much so not sure I fancy a theory test.

UmBongo · 16/05/2010 19:46

It may be a very thin silver lining Fairy but at least you now know that the theory works! Good luck for testing the theory again this month.

Fairygodmother1 · 16/05/2010 16:02

Hi ladies,

Been taking it easy & having quiet time with DH.
Alcohol very much appreciated!!! Can't be a proper chav without having some sort of miscarriage, bad birth, nearly lost the baby type drama. Surprised I haven't had one yet! (I'm trying to be cheery). The silver lining is I can actually conceive naturally so pretty happy about that!

What's everyone been up to?

UmBongo · 16/05/2010 10:05

Sorry to hear that everyone has had a shitty week. Sorry your dh doesn't have enough imagination Lia, he should have been grateful for a night out without stressing about kids and ttc etc!

Welcome back Ladybird, pleased you have had a good holiday, can I have some of your hooch if there is any left?

Have a relaxing weekend Fairy, have some of ladybirds hooch. Just try to sober up before your blood tests or they will come back with the result that you are a drunken chav!

We went for our first hosp appt on thursday, with nurse first to get all test results checked and history sorted so that when we see cons in early June then she has all the details. Nurse said that the results all seemed to be within the boundaries of acceptable. So from that it seems that we are heading towards "Unexplained" as an explanation. Ho Hum. Will have to wait for the consultant. She did stick me with a needle tho for more bloods. This baby business - you go within 50 yards of a medical person and they just want your blood!

Loujalou · 16/05/2010 08:41

PS I have sterlised it first so all nice and clean.

Loujalou · 16/05/2010 08:40

Lia here is the turkey baster looks like you need it now.

Icedlemonmuffin · 16/05/2010 08:16

This is for you Lia

aarrrrrggggghhhhh

Bloody men, why aren't they like those lovely blokes on jk who are always up for it and always get you and your best friend pregnant!!

liahgen66 · 15/05/2010 22:45

ok ladies, relaaax, I'm back.

Well I have had a shit week, Dh has been in a foul mood, thought our my great idea of a date was stupid and generally mooched around like a bear with a sore head. He went away Wed, and was supposed to return Friday, when he said he was coming home Thursday night, i was a bit peeved I can tell you, was looking forward to some nice atmosphere.

so no bloody sex since last weeks morning quickie, up until this morning so chances of me being upduffed this month are more remote than a remote thing at a remote convention.

He's in a better mood now but another sodding month wasted. I wonder if he's really into this baby making malarky and that was a good excuse to not shag.

Kids got photoshoot tomorrow all day for the next show in June. Last weeks show was fab. Ds has a shoot for the white company on Tuesday and I just won tickets to go see Mus the word at the theatre on Tuesday evening so that should keep me fromm symptom spotting busy until such time as the BRTOD (bloody red tide etc etc)

fairy am very sorry to hear your news, platitudes won't make you feel better but you know where we are.

Think i'm gonna have a hooch or something now, might even make it a snakebite and black,

Hope everyone else is well.

Ladybird10 · 15/05/2010 17:56

Hey park/beach whores

I'm back from my holiday, so depressing to be back but at least the sun is shining. I'm a nice shade of red which is now peeling really bad and i burnt my nips and bum lol. Just kidding! I'm a nice shade of brown but do have a white bum ;)
I left all my chavvy clothes behind and just filled my pink playboy suitcase with several bottles of apple hooch, white lightning and sambucca. Anyone fancy getting pissed?

Are we still taking part it shag watch? Looks like everyone has got fed up of shagging. Well i'm on cd14 and have managed 3 shags. Think i am ovulating today because of the pain in my side.
The last time we did the dirty deed was yesterday morning (we rarely have morning bonks but as we were on holiday it's different) but i stood up almost straight away and went to the toilet so if i am ovulating today then the chances of conceiving are pretty slim because i should have stayed lying down for a bit or is that a myth?

Fairy sorry if it was a miscarriage, hopefully this month it will stick.

Loujalou · 15/05/2010 11:05

LIA where are you?? I hope you have not been doing anything radical like look after your kids
