Now also, in honour of the Rugby World Cup, we can also take our pick of the strapping, fine-thighed walking sperm banks who will be on display in New Zealand soon. I vote myself to be the tournament's physio and also we can judiciously place a few eager volunteers into the Pit for Gloom purposes. They are so incredibly tough that they are not likely to go the way of Daniel, Cap'n Jack and Mitchell.

Roll up, roll up....baggsy the first go on Jonny Wilkinson.

Ha yes we could do a very good bunfight. I could accuse you of having an overblown sense of entitlement or something of the like. What topic did you have in mind?

Nah, that's not a typical aibu. I'm bored of parking spaces though.

yeah, pretend you need the extra space as you have a massive 4x4 and people keep scratching your doors. Since you keep your princess on board sticker in your car, who's to know.

Ha no, I have posted on too many parking threads in the past, although mostly on disabled rows. But enough for people to spot it as a fake.

We could start one in conception entitled it's the first month of TTC and I'm 1 day past oving... should I do a test?! Then we could just take all our frustration out there Grin

I've just eaten pizza. It had meat on. I prefer a veggie pizza. Discuss?

KatAndKit · 10/10/2011 20:46

I'd say that cd 8 was probably too early for ovulation but all sorts have been going on with your cycle so stranger things have happened. Are you doing any sort of ovulation testing yet? I have no knowledge of fange pains either but I think it is probably unrelated to ovulation. CD 15 is very early for boobache.

I reckon you would be best off trying out the well cheapo range of ovulation tests. Even if you have a long and irregular cycle they are so cheap you can piss on them without guilt.

InTheSunshine · 10/10/2011 21:05

Bugs sometimes my boobs hurt the day after I ov. It's like someone has pressed a button.

AlpinePony · 11/10/2011 09:15

bugger I've conceived twice on CD8. Or at least done The Sechs on day 8 which has led to conception. I OV early - CD10-12 and the swimmers (in our case) nneed 48 hours to navigate my dusty tubes. If we'd waited until my egg popped it would've been nowt but dust by the time they got there.

I really would recommend getting a hold of a Shag Dictator to see if you are ov'ing early. Mine didn't make me pregnant, but it did confirm my suspicions that I OV early.

KatAndKit · 11/10/2011 09:20

bugs, pm me your address and I will loan you my shag dictator for as long as you need it. It really does help to pinpoint the right days. Ov testing does the same thing, but as pone says, if you wait until the egg is coming out, the swimmers might not make it in time. The Shag Dictator allows to to cover both bases.

AlpinePony · 11/10/2011 09:38

Yay! Another ESH shag dictator gets passed along! Grin

eurochick · 11/10/2011 10:41

Sunshine I usually know before FF confirms it that I have oved because my boobs get twingey. I did this month, at 2dpo.

I get EWCM sometimes about 3/4 days before I ov. So seeing it on CD8 might not mean that you are ovving that early.

AlpinePony · 11/10/2011 11:04

I used to get the ewcm early (i.e., day 8) and I wondered if it were there to actually facilitate the swimming of these channel crossers?

KatAndKit · 11/10/2011 11:07

That is exactly what it is there for. It acts as a sort of ladder to them so they can get into the cervix and it has nutrients in it (like semen does) to sustain them on their travels.

AlpinePony · 11/10/2011 11:38

Exactly. Producing it on the actual day you ov would be mother nature working against itself. Unless your tubes are 2cm long and your partner's swimmers Olympiads.

That's a good idea. The Shag dictator recommends you use it after 3 cycles. It will still be waiting in my top drawer so just say when you are ready, although hopefully you will not get to that point.

Howdy to all the BESHes from Filey :)
Caravan bedroom is a bit of a mouse swinger but it's clean and at least we're on holiday! MSB is feeling.better so I am plying him with booze going to suggest caravan nookie!

KatAndKit · 11/10/2011 16:47

Caravan nookie will surely have a naughty thrill to it?
We tried it on a ferry cabin once but it was a total nonstarter due to the beds being bunk and resulting head injury.
