Conception

When's the best time to get pregnant? Use our interactive ovulation calculator to work out when you're most fertile and most likely to conceive.

Those rats are jolly well going to be smacked this cycle and AF shall have arrows, hatred and misery cast upon her! No argument shall be brooked on both points.

Rubbish thread title, apologies.

Pop I rattle too! I'm also eating my Brazil nuts and will start on cinnamon porridge again when I'm back to work. Let's make sure we both get preggo on our first supplemented cycles! Then we can publish our findings and make millions with branded supplements!

PopcornMouse · 17/01/2012 10:10

I tried to attempt the brazil nut thing, but I ate them all in one go Blush whoops...
Glad you're feeling better today by the way :)

farfallarocks · 17/01/2012 10:37

pop I am also guilty of the snaffling all brazil nuts in one go and then feeling a bit sick behaviour :)

hello generic hope you are feeling better.

Off for fanjooly scan 2 today, I have brought preseed with me as if we are going to SWI I don;t want them to use KY jelly.
I am totally menkul or what?

PopcornMouse · 17/01/2012 10:43

Wow that's very organised far I'd never have thought of that but you're totally right! :)

Glad it's not just me :o Blush
Accidentally POACBFMS (peed on a cbfm stick!) this morning and didn't need to - whoops! Will it ask me for any more this cycle, now it's peaked?

GenericDietCola · 17/01/2012 10:45

Wow good thinking Far! I don't envy you having another scan - one of my New Year's resolutions was to avoid having anymore fanjo scans - I am so sick of them!

Pop you have reminded me to POAS and see if the line is fading - will go and do it now!

NoMaybeAboutIt · 17/01/2012 11:14

Morning all, sorry for the radio silence, had a funny turn yesterday Sad

Generic what did the stick say?

Hurrah for the golden egg Pop

Hope all goes well for the scan Far and good idea with the pre seed!

Hello to all other smackers, I'm on my phone so can't go back any further!

Munx how you doing?

beangrower · 17/01/2012 11:16

Nice one Far.

Yes will give meds a go next quarter.

I have all sorts of menkal TTC tics too. Caning Brazil nuts seems mild.

Brooking for Munx and a sticky bean. Xxxx

PopcornMouse · 17/01/2012 11:19

Oh noes, are you feeling better today maybe ?

GenericDietCola · 17/01/2012 11:20

Oh Maybe are you OK?

Stick was positive, but quite faint, so I'm hopeful that I'll ov soon.

beangrower · 17/01/2012 11:35

Wassup Maybe? Hope you're ok. X

NoMaybeAboutIt · 17/01/2012 12:30

Thanks everyone x

I'm ok I think. Came into work yesterday, came home as was feeling a bit weird, then almost passed out in tesco! Then was completely drained and sick feeling. I feel like it now, but have to be in work. Silly body!

Hopefully that line will be gone soon Generic (I feel horrible saying that) then you can smack that rat good and proper!

I had some chocolate brazils over cgristmas, which means I will deffo be up the duff this cycle. Right?!

whimsicalname · 17/01/2012 12:33

with those symptoms, maybe, it sounds like you are up the duff.

whimsicalname · 17/01/2012 12:33

Sorry, meant to say I hope you're feeling better too.

farfallarocks · 17/01/2012 13:18

maybe that sounds like preggo funny turns to me!!!!

generic here's hoping you ovulate soon, have another hug for good measure

pop it will ask you to POAS for the day after your peak and one more day after that. It automatically gives you a peak and then a high so its a waste of sticks and not necessary. I am also really testing the CBFM this month as I can know exactly when I am ovulating due to this follicle tracking malarkey.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 17/01/2012 13:22

Hmm, that's what DH said too, but I did have an AF. Of sorts. And my boobs aren't sore anymore either. Just my body playing tricks Grin

PopcornMouse · 17/01/2012 13:34

Oooo that's good far you'll have to let us know how it goes! I'm quite impressed so far; I'd have missed my window if I'd not used it this cycle because I'm getting complacent

Maybe = preggo! What do you mean, of sorts? Wasn't it whimsy who had AF then a bfp? :o

PopcornMouse · 17/01/2012 13:35
whimsicalname · 17/01/2012 13:37

Not me, pop (unless you know something I don't)

farfallarocks · 17/01/2012 13:46

I think that was musicalcalms

beangrower · 17/01/2012 14:32

AF of sorts doesn't sound like an AF at all. Have you tested Maybe? Yum - choccy brazils.

Very run down here at Bean Towers with a nasty head cold and the squits plus two corking spots (haven't had any for ages). This is most definitely not my month, and I'm not even fishing for a bionic-ironic.

Pop - you are preggo for sure - CBFM is your breakthrough. Don't bother with Mat' clothes. Just get yourself a good strong hairband to rig up your trousers (through buttonhole - it's a neat money-saving trick) and let it all hang out when that fails. I didn't even show til about month 5 anyway. Sorry - I'm taking all the fun out of it aren't I? Just buy yourself a fab maternity coat and some lovely tops and you'll be a happy bunny.

ScrambledSmegs · 17/01/2012 14:36

Hello everyone. Maybe you are definitely upduffed . Please go POAS! Oh. My. God. So exciting!!!

This CBFM thing sounds like fun. Are they really expensive, Pop? I know it's not meant to be fun, it's a serious business this ttc, but is it just me that actually enjoys charting and OPK's? Yep? Just me then... Grin

far hope the scan goes well, and good thinking on the preseed - I would never have thought of that!

Temps rocketed this morning, so hopefully (fx) I've ovulated. Yay! If temps stay high over the next few days I think I can justifiably raise two fingers in the general direction of Dr Charmless and his 'you probably aren't ovulating' bollocks.

beangrower · 17/01/2012 14:38

Hi Smegs - lots of SWI involved too I hope?

shinyblackgrape · 17/01/2012 14:44

Can I join in again please? I was on the thread in October but had to go away for work at beginning of December so missed window then and was ill in November.

Anyway, we got got back to it, so to speak, for this cycle and AF is due on Friday/Sat.

Already done a FRER why why ???!!! and it was BFN on 8dpo.

Have done a few internet cheapies too and BFN.

Going try no to test until AF is late famous last words !

ScrambledSmegs · 17/01/2012 14:46

Dunno about lots , bean. Every other day. Counts as lots in our house! I tried to persuade DH to go for the every third day option, but he wasn't having any of it Grin

How are you feeling? I always found vast amounts of herbal tea with lashings of honey made colds more bearable. Hope you feel better soon.

ScrambledSmegs · 17/01/2012 14:48

shinyblackgrape! Welcome back! I'd been wondering where you'd got to.

8dpo definitely far too early to confirm your obvious pregnancy. Why did you test? Have you got symptoms? Do tell Grin
