I am about to start cycle 5 and wondered if there were any fellow sex pests out there who wanted to join me in regular swi, not so regular poas and plenty of Wine, Biscuit, Brew and [chocolate emoticon].

Thanks Weimy! Grin

Ghost New York sounds amazing! I'm going to Birmingham (ooooh aaaah) to see Jimmy Carr on Sunday and have a nice hotel booked for DP and I for the night - now there's two reasons why I'm desperate not to see AF this weekend!!

Baby that's right! One of my favorite film names, mainly because of the line "You're gonna Ipkiss your ass goodbye!" Grin

OBeSomeOtherName · 08/04/2011 14:01

Thanks for doing that Dreaming, I've been building up the mynadd to do it myself Smile

OBeSomeOtherName · 08/04/2011 14:03

Oops! Sorry a welsh word slipped in there Blush mynadd = energy/being arsed to do something.

BabySade · 08/04/2011 15:31

I may have to buy The Mask now, i have an urge to watch it!

I think ill just keep up SWI for a few more days as who knows. Its so ironic that we spend most of our lives trying NOT to get pregnant! Since ive started ttc i have convinced myself that is actually impossible get pregnant unless you do it on a certain date (hmm)

Anyway hope everyone has a good weekend, weather is lovely near me. Im working over the weekend so am making the most of today sat outside in the sun

Levana · 08/04/2011 15:40

I know what you mean BabySade about spending half your life trying not to get pregnant. I honestly thought if you had unprotected sex that was it - pregnant!

Turns out there about 4 days a month where you have a 1 in 4 chance or some such odds of getting pregnant. It's a complete head doer inner...

eurochick · 08/04/2011 15:44

Well I am just out for a December baby (period arrived today) so I guess I belong here now.

eurochick (35) ttc no.1 (can't do the hash sign - am on forrin keyboard!) Cycle 5, UCL 25-30 days, AF due 2-7 May

weimy, we seem to be at the same stage!

weimy · 08/04/2011 16:02

Hi eurochick sorry about AF:( We are at the same stage! Do you panic about leaving it too late and being too old to have a healthy bean?

No guesses on the Elvis Question????

BabySade · 08/04/2011 16:07

I have no idea but ill have a guess. Is it an encore?

weimy · 08/04/2011 16:08

Yay !!! Now it is your turn to think up a question Grin

I'll get my thinking hat on.....

BabySade · 08/04/2011 16:12

How many bones in the human body?

ghosteditor · 08/04/2011 16:14

babysade, I think unless you're dead certain about when you ovulated it's best to spread the SWI around a bit - how awful would it be only to focus on a small window of opportunity each month only to find out that it was the wrong window?

At the moment I really feel like I just don't want to know when I ov - with DH away so much I can't really control our dates and I don't want TTC to take over our lives to that extent (at least not yet!)

welcome to the list, eurochick .

weimy · 08/04/2011 16:27

I thought I knew when I ov'd now I'm not so sure so I am spreading everything Wink

Hi all! Nice to see you again Tanif - sorry about AF.

I'm feeling rubbish today :( Woke up with a temperature, aches and headache, and am sneezing for Britain. Feels like such a waste of this beautiful weather! Still, ov day isn't due for another week, so it's probably better to get ill now instead of in 5 days time...

EsmeWeatherwax · 08/04/2011 19:13

Evening all,

Weimy, no way have you left it too late, lol, I've had two very healthy babies since turning 35! As have many other people I know, my aunt had two wee surprises at 40 and 42, for example!

Dunno at all about ov this month, I seem to be a bit all over the place! Used to be so very regular too, haha, knowing my luck, its early menopause or summat. Grin

weimy · 08/04/2011 21:28

Thanks esme :)

Another BFN, still no AF! Stoopid body should know by now that I can't deal with this kind of thing! Angry

Weimy you did make me laugh at you spreading everything! Grin

DreamingOfABump · 09/04/2011 08:49

omg time appears to have slowed down- i am stiiillll on cycle day 2!
Have made use of slowing down of time by buying lovely lingerie on ebay to assist with baby making luring of husband away from angry birds Grin
Also want to drag husband shopping in the city today, will use excuse of " oh but we could peruse ann summers??" which im optimistic will do the job! hurrah for frilly ladies undercrackers ;)

Naynay80 · 09/04/2011 09:00

Lol dreamingofabump your funny let's hope it works
And Obesomeothername I know just how you feel big hug

Tanif · 09/04/2011 09:57

I've been trying desperately to catch up on 11 pages and it's taken me quite some time! Hope everyone has some nice plans for the weekend... dreaming can your DH please influence my DP? He loves the stuff I buy from Ann Summers but refuses point blank to go in and ends up lurking outside like some kind of pervert.

OBeSomeOtherName · 09/04/2011 10:25

Thank you Nay Smile

toddle · 09/04/2011 11:23

:L tanif mines the same however theres a cooplands cafe across from ann summmers and it appears by just mentioning the shop he becomes hungry/thirsty and needs to go there instead of coming in.

dreaming i feel your pain angry birds and bubble buster i swear he becomes effectivly blind/deaf whilst playin them.

babysade my guess is 236 :)

eurochick · 09/04/2011 12:26

weimy, yes, I am quite panicked. I met my hubby almost 8 years ago and then neither of us wanted kids. I changed my mind a couple of years later but he took a bit longer! I have PCOS so frankly it was bonkers to leave it so late but short of dumping the bloke and taking my chances elsewhere (which I did consider!) I didn't have much choice.

I took the arrival of my period tihs week quite badly because it now means that at the earliest I would have a due date in Jan 2012, so no 2011 baby. And I turn 36 then. Gah!

Thanks for the encouraging post, esme.

BoogiesBunny · 09/04/2011 13:04

Afternoon all! I am at a baking masterclass today - 2 of the people there are 8 weeks pregnant and on the course to learn how to be the mum with the best cakes. Envious! Still it's only 1pm and I've made 5 cakes - not bad! Hope you're all ok today!
