Poor Lisa :-( I can empathise.

Dulcet...hurry up and POAS!

DulcetMoans · 18/07/2012 12:27

I'm at work, I have no S to PO!! Best to wait until morning. I will not test tonight, no matter how much nicola cheers me on!

NicolaHazel · 18/07/2012 12:42

:-)

Newbie2 · 18/07/2012 14:21

Dulcet POAS in the morning! I shall be first online and waiting this time :)

DulcetMoans · 18/07/2012 15:01

I will be newbie but I think I might disappoint. I just don't really feel anything going on there!

Newbie2 · 18/07/2012 16:38

Dulcet don't worry, I think that it is quite common! Loads of things I read say you don't normally have symptoms untill a few weeks into pregnancy.

What has happened to my DH? I've just received a text saying that I should probably have a snack on my journey home so that we can get right onto baby making! LOL who is this man? Umm...I won't admit that ive just recently scoffed a packet of 1p sweets which would probably keep me going for a while :)

NicolaHazel · 18/07/2012 18:06

I'll be up bright and early too, Dulcet. Get going nice and early please :-)

Your DH is keen, Newbie! Good stuff.

I've been arguing with H2B for 2 days about his parents not coming to the wedding. Sent his mum flowers today and she wants to talk. Not told me when yet though...vanished.

Though my sister sent her an email today and his mum is ringing her later. Maybe I'll get an answer then. Almost wish I hadn't bothered now!

Oh, and in TMI news, after last month's hideous (for me) AF, it's done and dusted in less than 3 days this time. So back onto the DTD trail! Maybe not tonight though.

PuppyMummy · 18/07/2012 18:43

hi everyone, I'm still here! not posted for a while as trying to chill out after last months compulsive poas episode and later af!

anyhow back on it for cycle #4 although didn't start til cd10 and then oh away cd11 and 12. hoping (based on ewcm) I oved on cd13 so fingers crossed and still dtd for rest of month in case I didn't ov then at all!
af due sat 29th ish!
good luck tomorrow dulcet. fingers crossed for u.

MumOfTwoCats · 18/07/2012 19:02

Good luck Dulcet! I too shall check in first thing.

Just collected my box, may be diificult to hide this in the fridge! Luckily not too many people look in my fridge, if so it will be my mum or one of my sisters. I'll tell them what it is if they ask.

DulcetMoans · 18/07/2012 19:03

Thanks ladies. We will see how it goes in the morning. If I can get my act together to post before I leave for work it will be before 8am!

Hi puppy, are you into the 2ww now then? Hope you caught it!!

PuppyMummy · 18/07/2012 19:46

hi dulcet. yes if I oved when I think I did then its the 2ww for me!

on the plus side school finishes for hols on Friday! yipee!

if this cycle doesn't work I'm going to try reflexology next month too.

Newbie2 · 18/07/2012 21:03

Nicola, mother in laws...who needs them!?! Well I guess we need them to produce DH's but after that they become tricky :) I've not met one yet that you don't have to delicately handle. My DH is such a mummy's boy...she can do know wrong in his eyes :() Anyway, hope she brings you good news soon! And horray for short AF!!

Is it Nut who got the last BFP? If so then Nut needs to start the next thread to keep up with tradition :) ooooohhhh maybe it could be Dulcet tomorrow ;)

NicolaHazel · 18/07/2012 21:24

I think you should start the next one, Newbie...it is meant to bring luck with conception!

My sister apparently spent an hour on the phone with MIL to be. Said it sounded vaguely positive, but not to hold my breath as a decision may not be speedy! We shall see. Sick of arguing about them though.

Not long til Dulcet POAS, thank god! :-)

EchoDragon · 18/07/2012 22:23

Hi ladies. Sorry it'ts been a while but I have been lurking. Here's my stats.

Echodragon Cycle 2 BFP due July 30th

Fx for dulcet tomorrow

Newbie2 · 18/07/2012 22:24

Wow you've got a good sister :) I really hope your MIL makes the right decision because you can never get the day back! It will all come together though. I remember it feeling so tense with several family members 3 months before my day and then it all fell into place at the end. DH and I had such silly arguments about his parents. It will all work out in the end. The biggest problem is that others drag things on because they don't feel the urgency to sort it out whilst you can see the end goal approaching fast!

Oh really, so I need to start a thread to get some good news? Might do that after we hear from Dulcet in the morning :)

Newbie2 · 18/07/2012 22:25

Echo long time no see :)

Newbie2 · 18/07/2012 22:29

Did anyone else realise that you can get a LH surge and still not ovulate? How annoying is that! I read tonight that one way to determine that you've ovulated is too keep testing with OPKs a few days after your surge just to make sure you really catch it e.g dont stop DTD until the surge disappears. I'll give that a go this cycle! Perhaps I gave up DtD too soon after the surge!

NicolaHazel · 18/07/2012 22:34

Hi Echo! :-)

I have the most utterly awesome big sister in the world. I'm very, very lucky.

People are seriously pissing me off with not replying etc. I know H2B will be well chuffed if even only his mum comes, so fx she sees sense.

And that's a bit frustrating...at least I know that now. Roll on free supply of smilie sticks then, keep on top of that anomaly. :-/

letsdothisthing · 18/07/2012 22:42

Didnt know that Newbie, I learn something new everyday around here!

POAS tonight and was +ve..OPK though - CD19 today, we've DTD on CD 13, 15,16,17 and 19!! Plan to get few more in over weekend to and then the 2ww - eek! Got to wait and see if my temp rises in the morning and then I'll know I've ov'd!

Sorry about wedding stress Nicola, surely she'll go - how could she miss it :(

FX for you tomorrow Dulcet

DulcetMoans · 18/07/2012 22:45

Aw, thanks all. Feel I might be letting you all down if it doesn't go the right way. We should line up the next tester just in case. Who's next?!

Hi echo! You're into your 2ww then, hope you are baring up.

Sounds like a family nightmare nicola. Don't fancy that stress at all!

Watching one born on more4 again. Always a mistake!

EchoDragon · 18/07/2012 22:49

Hi yeah sorry work has been crazy busy. Kept meaning to post just never hot around to it. Seems am not accepted for CB trial. Oh well have sure loads of ov sticks but finding it awkward to to them. I am as sure as can be ov was last week.

Have another pg friend. Soo glad for her but slightly Envy

However after two hours of watching her two year old run riot and not so sure if I want one of my own!

EchoDragon · 18/07/2012 22:50

Sorry about spelling!

EchoDragon · 18/07/2012 22:55

Yeah on 2ww. I will not test before 30th! Is what I tell myself. In reality I'll probably cave middle of next week :o

Newbie2 · 18/07/2012 22:55

Mumbaisapphire is next to test. Hmm I might move onto testing temp next cycle as it does seem like a good way to tell if you've ovulated. TMI alert - DTD and feel like I've totally wasted time as its all come out of me! Sooo hate it when that happens! Even had my legs up in hair for 30mins so very unfair that it didn't stay in!

letsdothisthing · 18/07/2012 22:55

Mumba and Alwyn are not too far behind you, and then me Hmm

Know what you mean about feeling a little bit of pressure on here though, felt a bit sorry for Newbie the other night when we were all hounding her for the result lol - but its only because we all care and are all going through the same thing - and then afterwards can all commiserate if its the dreaded BFN and come up with a different plan of attack for the nexy cycle :o
