TTC#1 - The difficult fifth thread: the one where we all get BFP!

[DulcetMoans]

Time to move over ladies. Would love to start this thread by announcing my BFP but unfortunately I can't because we all talk too much to get to test date!

All going for gold medals in baby-making and bound to get there soon, aren't we???

Ahhhhh we have rats in our roof!!!! DH woke me up to break the news at 4am and I've not been able to go back to sleep. I've just googled the problem and apparently it can be very costly to get pest control in. I was trying to keep DH stress free (for TTC purposes) this week but no chance of that now that one more problem has been added to his house list :-/

Contact your council, mine sorted it for free many moons ago. Bit of a bugger though :-(

CD12 and still no surge. Frustrated now. How's the CBFM, Newbie?

Well, I finally got my smiley face this morning, phew! Mega annoyed though because DH was too tired to DTD this morning and obviously I have no fresh stock at the moment as have been waiting for smiley face to fit in with what Dr suggested (jump on DH when smiley arrives and for 5 days after).

So I'm tired and generally fed up! Oh and I'm not convinced it's a rat, I think it might be a bird. I can't work out if it's flapping noises or running noises. Stupid rat/bird for interfering with TTC plans!!

Oh and Nicola CD15 on the CBFM and it is still not asking for sticks!

Just called GP and managed to re-book my blood test for next Tuesday so that will be 7 days post LH surge. TG I managed to re-book! At least I'll have the results back on the 11th when I get my scan. Just need to stay calm about DH performance and keep fx that I get something tonight!

Sorry for clogging up thread but I just have one more thing to say. I feel very different this month to previous months when I've had a lot of twinges and serious bloating. My cm is for once matching with OV time so that is surely a good sign!? Perhaps this is a sign that my body is settling. I hope I get BFP or AF in September obviously would prefer BFP

Nicola have you had any twinges this cycle so far compared to others? I know you and I were matching pains at one point. I'm sure you will get a smiley CD13, 14 or 15. Not long now :)

I have NO twinges and NO CM.

This cycle is annoying me. But, got pain a day or so later last cycle so fx something is happening! :-/

I hope it's a bird not rats!

And good news re blood tests next week. :-)

Huh, didn't you say you had creamy cm at the weekend? Perhaps that was Dulcet!

I've just realised that It's two weeks today that I have my scan. That means my scan will be around the end of my 2ww. Well we know the first question I'll be asking the Dr...is the scan harmful if I'm pregnant?!?!

Typical timing!

I had one day of creamy cm, but nothing now when it should be increasing. :-/

It might have been me, who knows?! I say a lot of stuff here! Hope it is a bird newbie, although that will still be a pain in the arse to get rid of!

Oh newbie what a pain!
Your home ins should cover you as well I'd it's in the ceiling. Hope it's just birds!

It's sods law isn't it! Have not heard it again since 9:30am. It is either dead or sleeping. I feel like running around the attic just to pay it back!!

Name change alert!

Sorry about the bird/rat newbie. Could it be a Stork?!

I have used OPK's this month and got nothing, then got another weird 2nd AF. I'm now thinking my CD is 10 not 21. DTD last night even tho stick was neg in the morning. might as well store some incase it happens in the next day or so and H2B can't be arsed is too tired. and a bit and also of my friend and her 7 week old boy who i had the pleasure of cuddling for ages on saturday

Eeek good luck with your rat/bird issue newbie - my mum had squirrels once and it was a nightmare! they ate through one of the roof beams!

I'm feeling poorly today :( - but have to put up with it quietly or I wont be able to attack DH tonight!

33PinkLady name change from what? Laughed at your stalk mention!

Blockette sorry your poorly! Good on you for getting through it so you can DTD tonight, that's dedication for you! Hmmm my DH keeps admiring the squirrels in the garden...that is very possible! Are squirrels nocturnal?

For those of you with working AF's experiencing normalish cycle lengths, just wanted to remind you that it took two of my closest friends 6 months to conceive after coming off the pill (last yr) with normal cycles. Thought I'd give some of you some hope! :-)

Sorry newbie, i was 33andTTC but have caved in on the lucky fruity names!

Ahhh ok :)

Hi all

Newbie how strange, I got my peak this morning to but it has scarred me a little as I think it may be to early, I'm only on cd13...here's my results

Cd9&10 -low
Cd11&12- high
Cd13 (and tomorrow, cd14)- peak!

Only secon month of using cbfm, I peaked on cd21 last month which is why I think it's to early! I no doctor said low progestrone means no ovulation but I have been eating better and exercising so hopefully my little eggy will appear soon . I'm not giving up hope just yet :)

Thanks Newbie (also a wave from the lucky-name-change corner) - I don't remember, but the scratching in the attic was never consistent, sometimes it was at night other times it was mid-day - Can you borrow a cat? My Mum sent her's in and it came out with "evidence" of what was there - unfortunately there was more then one :(

ooh chuffed you liked the name block [embarrassed]

Roxy you're fine. To peak on CD13/14 is bang on average as the average women ovulates on CD14. Not every women ovulates at the same time every month. My LH surge is getting later each month however, I think that's a good thing as it is tying up with cm signs. I think it's good to keep a note of what's going on but don't worry too match if it doesn't match previous months. Deffinately have hope! Lifestyle changes sound really hopeful too :)

Blockette ooooh didn't think about more then one. Hah we could have a whole savalilion family up there! The neighbour has a cat, might have to lure it in! DH has called pest control so we shall see.

You could get fruit into your name change newbie, sounds like the way to go!!

Hmmm...my uterus is starting to feel like it is being dragged to the floor. Maybe OV is on the way.

Nice name changes ladies.

Great idea re cat! :-)

OK Dulcet I'll try anything ;)

Nicola What on earth does that feel like? uterus dragging to the floor? Any change in CM?

Yay! You changed! Just have to avoid saying newbie now!

Yeah, that doesn't sound nice nic... Hopefully a smiley tomorrow then! Do you reckon the stuff in the tubes for cb affects the smiley reading?
