well yes i suppose i could but no symptoms so don't think so.

Not for want of bloody trying though, I don't think i had this much sex in my promiscuous younger years.

Lemon I am into men from Spooks (see above) cute Arsenal players, Adrian Lester etc. Don't get the R Pattz thing myself. Feel like a cradle snatcher when looking at him.

So Lia you could have won a baby and not know it - that takes real restraint. When I was trying for DS I didn't poas til 5 days past when witch was due. Thought it was going to be a struggle to get pregnant so needed real proof. Got it now and now my body plays horrid tricks on me.

Icedlemonmuffin · 01/03/2010 20:19

Tea shouldn't that be MrTeas bingo dabber!

I love the idea of baby bingo do you have to get a full house or just the four corners to get a baby?

Lia well done for not peeing!!

This no 11 cycle post mc and it was about 24 cycles before that , so I am really p*issed off with ttfc.

Fairy keep up the good work hope the sore bits don't get too sore!

Lou not into the vampires but there is a detective on CSI New York that I think is lovely.

lou the only reason i haven't really is cos i actually can't afford to buy any. I've kind of given up on £1 shops and don't feel extra hungry or anything so no real reason to do one.

I really really wanted to today but they didn't have any in savers so that stopped me. Maybe i'll do one on sunday, (just to keep you company you understand) if you wait that long.

Loujalou · 01/03/2010 20:07

lia you not poas is a miracle are you sure you didn't do it in your sleep?

liahgen66 · 01/03/2010 20:04

hi ladies,

how are the devil are you all?

well we haven't had sex since that romantic encounter in the bathroom Friday morning, half hour after I posted lady 2 called to say waters had gone, Spent from Sat tea time to yesterday afternoon awaiting the birth of a gorgeous little boy. mum and baby very well.

Then we had ds2's showcase for his dance school last night, how proud were we of the little fella, I posted a link on the december bus of the video if you want to have a nosy.

Well I am definately on the december bus, no sign of period since erpc 6 wks ago thursday. We are still going strong with our valiant efforts for the cause.

Have been really good too and haven't poas stick since last tuesday. No bloody need i'm sure so am a bit proud of myself,

Lou please don't take my 27 months as a complaint at you! I just know exactly how you are feeling. far too many babies been born to friends & fam in the time it's taken me!!!

I'm up for cocktails & totally on the teen-bandwagon of loving Rob pattinson (should know better at nearly 30!!!)

Mitchell from Being Human might be free now series two has finished

Loujalou · 01/03/2010 19:47

Ok sorry for whinging 11 months is small in comparison it just feels like forever.

We need some gorgeous men around here. Anyone manage to get some to come and visit? We could have George Clooney, Rupert Penry Jones and Matthew Macfadden. Any other gorgeous men to hang out on our party bus. Think we need some more cocktails. Surely in cyber-space we can get boozed up without it affecting our potential babies.

TeaFan · 01/03/2010 19:47

Top marks indeed fairy, tis a well known fact that the more cards you play, the better your chances of winning on the baybee bingo

Unfortunately my dabber is a bit slow and I only usually manage to play one or two cards!

Fairygodmother1 · 01/03/2010 19:42

Iced i'm technically on cycle 27 at least!!!!! here-here to ttfc!!!!!!

Well thats 2 nights of SWI on CD10. Top marks for effort I feel.

I thought that is what is f meant. There is also FTC failing to conceive I think. Just sums it up!

We were using non-spermicidal lube for first 5 months but that apparently makes the darn sperm unable to f*cking move. So am still here.

Was reading about Early Pregnancy Factor and have decided that maybe sperms are meeting eggs but not getting a chance to implant. Therefore I will never have another babeeeee. Not that I am mental me....

Icedlemonmuffin · 01/03/2010 19:21

Trying to f*cking conceive !!

I was ttc 10 cycles ago but now it's ttfc because it just won't happen, was starting to wonder if I had the right hole ! Lol

Loujalou · 01/03/2010 17:47

What is the F for? I am bit slow today.

Icedlemonmuffin · 01/03/2010 16:22

Hello unfortunately I only make virtual muffins!

Lucy we are not against stats but it is very depressing to see that im on cycle 11 every day!

This bus is the party bus of ttc! Where we come to moan and groan about how boring ttfc has become.

Rant away Lucy and if you do any baking you have to promise to hand some out here, especially the alcoholic stuff!

Turned the tables on OH last night, we were going to have SFF before SWI duty starts in a few days but I wanted to watch Being Human and finish my bottle of red, despite my promises I fell asleep on the sofa

You're right though Barnesy, these men claim to be sex mad but most of the time they're all talk!

Louja I had hypnosis and loved it...it was for something else though and I kind of developed a secret crush on the therapist!

Lucy we have been trying for a year now but it is actually only 7 cycles if you don't count months where i couldn't get OH to SWI with illnesses/bad backs etc. I was really glad when Iced started this thread because it's a good place to talk about TTC generally but not get hung up in the stats! POAS is Pee On A Stick by the way you might find this website interesting - the woman that runs it is definitely weird a nutter dedicated!

Hmmm, I think that post could have done with a bit more punctuation.

Unbuffy · 01/03/2010 10:16

Morning girls!

Well it looks like af has gone now (came, went, came back??? Sure it ain't actually male?) so am preparing for swiwav (with a vengeance). Keeping fingers crossed for another Christmas baby (groans all round, not FAIR, done that once and you can't EAT anything or DRINK at all but just want a baby don't care when end of rant...)

Apparently 'took advantage of' dh yesterday while half asleep (him not me!) after night shift. His words. But don't think he minded really so that should get the party started for this month. So much for romance...

Iced, do you have a good recipe for your name? Have a fancy for baking!

Bestest sticky wishes to all (sticky must be better than dry for sore bits too...)

stuffedmk · 01/03/2010 10:15

I have found the charting sort of helps in the 2ww. My cycles are not terrible in comparison to some peoples but are not as regular as they could be so knowing when AF is due at least stops me thinking I must be pg when it is a long cycle. I do still go a bit mental in the 2ww but at least it is a 2ww not a 3ww and I know when to start POAS
